A moment later, inside the Xiang family mansion.
After some hypocritical courtesy, Xiang Wenli and others stayed in the front hall to discuss the matter.
As a female family member, Xiang Sheng was excluded as expected and was sent away by Xiang Hongyu to the guest house first.
However, when he reached the gate of Langyuan Courtyard, he was stopped by guards on both sides.
"Which lady are you?"
The leader of the guards looked Xiang Sheng up and down, and seeing that he looked familiar, he cursed impatiently, "Do you really think that just because you're pretty enough, the distinguished guest of Langyuan will be interested in you? He's a true disciple of the Blazing Flame Sect, and he's seen all kinds of fairies? Get out of here right now!"
"presumptuous!"
Fourteen cursed loudly, walked up and slapped the guard leader in the face without saying a word, then grabbed the guard's collar and pressed him in front of Xiang Sheng.
"Open your dog eyes and see clearly, this is Miss Sheng."
"Miss Sheng... is she Miss Seventy-Two? The Miss Sheng who joined the Blazing Flame Sect?!"
The guard's face changed drastically, and his anger instantly disappeared. His legs softened and he knelt on the ground. "I was blind and didn't recognize the great man. I didn't realize that you were in front of me and spoke nonsense and offended you. Please forgive me for my ignorance!"
Xiang Sheng's expression was indifferent, "Why don't you get out of the way?"
The guard was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to move aside, kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you very much, sir, for your generosity. I am deeply grateful!"
As they expressed their gratitude, Xiang Sheng and his group entered the courtyard and disappeared.
The girls who saw this scene from afar had different expressions, and their faces didn't look very good.
"Is that seventy-two?"
Someone said sourly, "The Immortal Sect is all about nurturing people. I haven't seen her for a few months, and the skinny and yellow girl from before has grown into such a beautiful girl."
"Seventy-two is a loser. He's always been bullied by Wanwan. When has he ever seen her so glorious?"
"She's lucky, so I can't envy her."
A young girl in yellow sighed softly, her eyes filled with envy. "Look at that guard. He usually scolds us coldly and never shows us respect. Yet, he was frightened like this by Seventy-Two. Seventy-Two... is truly awe-inspiring."
"Let's all go."
The girl in the purple dress tugged at the hem of her skirt and snorted, "Brother Hongyu only has eyes for her. Why are we still staying here? Are we just asking for trouble?"
The yellow-dressed girl's eyes flashed when she heard this. "Let's all go, but there's no rush to go back."
"Sister, what you mean is..."
One person seemed to understand, and his eyes lit up.
The yellow-dressed girl sneered, "Doesn't Xiang Wanwan always love to show off her status in front of us? Why don't we come and see the current Seventy-Two and let her see what dignity means!"
At the same time, Xiang Sheng and others entered the courtyard and saw at a glance that the spacious garden was full of rich golden color, which was so golden and dazzling.
Qin Ji walked around the corridor and returned to the wing room, praising, "Miss Sheng, this courtyard has a complete array of magic circles and abundant spiritual energy. Although it's not as good as the one in the sect, it's not bad either."
Fourteen also came over at this time. Upon hearing Qin Ji's words, he immediately laughed and said, "That's right, Sister Qin Ji, you don't know that this is the guest house specially prepared by the family for distinguished guests. It concerns the reputation of the Xiang family. I heard that all the supplies are of the best quality."
After saying this, he turned to look at Xiang Sheng and said, "Miss, I've counted. This courtyard is extremely spacious. In addition to the main wing, there are three side rooms, all of which are very nice."
Xiang Sheng nodded slightly, moved to take a look, and finally chose to live in the room that was halfway away from the main wing. It was neither too close nor too distant.
It was obvious that someone cleaned the room frequently, and the furniture was spotless. Qin Ji and the others did not need to put in much effort. They took out the spiritual grains and vegetables they brought from the sect from their storage rings and soon filled the table.
After battling wits and courage with Dong Jinghuan at night, Xiang Sheng was really hungry. But just as he picked up his chopsticks, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.
When he looked up, he saw Xiang Wanwan stepping into the threshold with a murderous look on her pretty face, followed by several powerful guards.
When Xiang Wanwan came in and saw Xiang Sheng dressed in luxurious clothes, the food on the table was something she had never seen before, and it was even emitting a faint spiritual light, her expression became even uglier.
These should have belonged to her!
"Xiang Sheng!"
Xiang Wanwan gnashed her teeth and scolded him harshly, "You've only been in the sect for a few months, and you've completely forgotten the rules of your family? You didn't even stand up to me when you saw me. Who gave you the courage?!"
Xiang Sheng put down his chopsticks, turned to look at Xiang Wanwan for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "Sister Wan, how have you been lately?"
Xiang Wanwan was suddenly shocked and angry. Xiang Sheng always cowered in front of her and allowed her to bully him. When had he ever been so arrogant?
"Bitch, how dare you mock me?!"
Xiang Wanwan's eyes widened, and before she could strike with her hand, Qinji, who was standing beside her, grabbed her wrist and violently let go.
"Miss Xiang Wanwan, this is not the place for you to act wildly."
Qin Ji warned coldly: "I advise you to leave as soon as possible and don't ask for trouble."
Xiang Wanwan stumbled back a few steps, looking down at her red wrist. She was immediately furious. "What are you still standing there for? Come on, kill her!"
The guards looked at each other but remained indifferent.
"Miss, this is Langyuan."
One person said stubbornly, "If the head of the family knew you were causing trouble here, he would be furious."
"Langyuan?!"
Xiang Wanwan's anger didn't subside when she heard this. Instead, it grew even angrier, her entire body shaking with rage. "Slut! Before, you wouldn't even carry my shoes for me, and now you're worthy of living here?"
She suddenly pulled out the long sword from her guard's waist and stabbed towards Sheng!
But when he was halfway there, Qin Ji knocked his weapon away with his sword and he stood there in a daze.
Xiang Sheng propped up his face with one hand, looked at Xiang Wanwan's embarrassed appearance, and said slowly: "Qinji, slap your mouth."
