As expected, carved railings, jade bricks, pavilions and towers are indispensable, and there are countless exotic flowers and trees...
Although the scenery was beautiful, Ji Xingzhi had no intention of appreciating it at all. She was eager to see Tianshu.
only……
Looking at the circles of people around him, seeing the anger, ridicule, and disdain in their eyes...
Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but smile bitterly. It might be difficult for her to meet Tianshu.
Inside.
Ji Xingzhi stood in the hall, letting the people inside look at her. Even if some dirty words reached her ears, her expression remained calm, as if those unpleasant words had nothing to do with her.
Apart from the low voices of discussion in the hall, there were only gazes that wished to torture Ji Xingzhi to death.
After a long while, an old man in a flowing cloud robe asked, "Are you Ji Xingzhi?"
Ji Xingzhi looked in the direction of the voice and saw a kind-looking old man with his gray hair combed meticulously and tied up with a lotus crown. He looked quite amiable, but the majesty of his high position could not be ignored.
Ji Xingzhi nodded slightly: "Yes."
The fact that the old man asked this question proved that they had investigated her before, but for some reason they did not take any measures against her.
Ji Xingzhi guessed that it might be because of Tianshu.
Ji Xingzhi's calm and composed demeanor made the old man and several others standing beside him show admiration.
"I originally thought that the woman who could win the Palace Master's heart must be the most beautiful in the world, but now it seems... she is just so-so." A female voice sounded in the hall at an inopportune time.
Then, a woman walked out from the back of the hall. She was wearing a white flowing cloud dress, had a tall figure, a pretty face, and an extraordinary temperament. However, her expression was arrogant, and her eyes and eyebrows revealed contempt and disdain.
Ji Xingzhi pursed his lips calmly, not angry at all. Maybe this woman was Tianshu's relative, so he could just bear with it for now.
Seeing that Ji Xingzhi ignored her, the woman thought that Ji Xingzhi was self-aware, and looked at Ji Xingzhi with even more contempt, and the words she said were even more unpleasant: "I don't know what kind of seductive tricks you used to bewitch the Palace Master so much..."
Ji Xingzhi's eyes were slightly cold, and she ignored it, thinking it was just a dog barking.
Ji Xingzhi didn't say anything, and those who seemed to be in high positions and powerful didn't try to stop her. Everyone in the hall wisely kept their mouths shut, leaving only the woman's voice echoing in the hall.
What they said was nothing more than that Ji Xingzhi was just an ordinary person, had no cultivation, and was not worthy of their Palace Master, etc...
Maybe she felt it was boring to curse alone, and since Ji Xingzhi ignored her, she felt a little embarrassed.
So, he glared at Ji Xingzhi angrily and said, "Hey! Why aren't you talking? Are you deaf or dumb?!"
To be honest, Ji Xingzhi didn't want to pay attention to this spoiled "little brat", so he really didn't pay any attention to him.
She had let this woman scold her for so long, it was time for these people to calm down.
Seeing that Ji Xingzhi remained silent, the woman showed a hint of anger on her face. She was about to explode but was stopped by the white-haired old man.
"Ruoque, you just came back from Biyuan Mountain and you want to go in again?" The old man's voice was very light, but it was not difficult to hear the fondness in it.
Although it is a rebuke, it is not scary at all.
Ruo Que, that woman, held the old man's arm and said in a delicate voice, "Grandpa, I just feel that she is not worthy of the Palace Master. It's not worth the Palace Master sacrificing so much for her. If it were Sister Qinglang, I would naturally have nothing to say, but she is not Sister Qinglang, she is just an ordinary person from a low-level continent, and the Palace Master is still in a coma because of her..."
