That night, at Feng Pavilion.
The person in charge of entertaining the monks from several major immortal sects today is the Minister of Rites Wei Zhili. Lord Wei was just inaugurated and was promoted by the new emperor.
His appearance and demeanor were dignified and gentle, like a jade. When his name was on the imperial examination and he was paraded through the streets, all the girls in the city blushed and their hearts were moved. They threw their hooves at him, and Lord Wei almost fainted and begged for mercy.
Afterwards, he was even jokingly called "the beauty of a distant man". After all, after Lord Xie and the ghosts worked together, the title of exiled immortal became more and more distant from him.
"Young Master Wei, you've become more handsome after three days of separation. Oh, look at my memory. Now I should change my words to call you Minister Wei." The woman in yellow giggled tenderly, her eyes roaming over Wei Zhili's body as if she wanted to strip him naked.
Wei Zhili felt his scalp tingling when he saw this person, but he didn't show it on his face: "Sir Huang, long time no see."
After saying that, he immediately looked at the man in green beside him and spoke first: "Mr. Dou, are you okay now?"
"It's okay, it's okay." The man in green saw the pleading look in Wei Zhili's eyes, and he arched his hips to push the woman in yellow away a little to avoid endangering Lord Wei's innocence.
The woman in yellow and the man in green were none other than Fairy Huang and Master Badou. Behind them followed six young boys and girls with lively eyes, as if they were some small animals that had just transformed into humans.
Ever since the new emperor ascended the throne, there have been some problems in the Demon Suppression Division. For example, although some old demons such as the Purple Fox stayed, they obviously did not submit to the new emperor. Fairy Huang and Master Badou were among those who left.
They submitted to the new emperor, but did not want to stay and take up positions and cause trouble for others, so they simply left and lived out their own lives, hoping that they would still have the friendship when they met again in the future. For example, now, the two demons brought the younger generations of the Beast Valley here and acted like they were returning to their mother's home.
The other two disciples were left with nothing but envy when seeing this scene, but there was no comparison, really no comparison!
“Those two elders were both from the Demon Bureau of Dayong Town. When the war to eliminate witches broke out in the northern border, both of them were at the front lines. They are not only heroes of the human race, but they were also personally recruited by the Ghost Emperor and the Human Emperor…” Lan You explained in a low voice to the female cultivator beside him.
The female cultivator nodded. She was born gentle and generous, and her eyes were full of a special kind of charm. The woman looked up, as if she had regrets: "I don't dare to hope to see the Ghost Emperor and the Human Emperor. I only hope to see the current Emperor. Alas, it's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes..."
"Yes," Lan You sighed, feeling somewhat disappointed, "It's also our bad luck. The Prince Hui passed away today. Although His Majesty the Emperor had a mediocre relationship with the father, I think he will also go to the coffin to show his filial piety."
"Mortals cannot escape these vulgarities, and so can emperors."
Lan You sighed, but in fact he was worried about another thing. Not long ago, his junior brother had a conflict with the Rakshasa disciples at the bottom of the Bugui Tower. It seemed that he had offended a big shot in the Demon Suppression Division. Lan You went to the Demon Suppression Division to ask for a meeting but was turned down.
He also questioned those who had participated in the fight at that time, but they seemed to have forgotten everything and he could not get any information from them.
Unlike Lan You who was worried, the female cultivator beside him seemed absent-minded.
Wei Zhili invited everyone to sit down and discussed sending these immortal sect disciples to Dayong for training. As he was speaking, a close attendant came forward and whispered something in his ear.
Wei Zhili's expression changed slightly, and he immediately stood up, nodded to everyone, and walked out quickly.
The immortal sect disciples present were all very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, so they naturally heard the attendant's whisper.
The one I’m talking about is His Majesty!
The listless female cultivator suddenly became energetic and said to Lan You, "Senior Brother Lan, since His Majesty the Emperor has arrived, we should go and greet him first."
Lan You didn't notice anything unusual and got up and walked out.
The disciples of the Wanfa Sect naturally followed suit, and the Brahma Pavilion on the opposite side was not outdone.
However, the people from the Beast Valley were slow and lagging behind, not trying to grab the familiar face.
Xiao Fuji traveled incognito, bringing only a female official and a eunuch with him.
Wei Zhili saw that all these disciples of the immortal sect came out to greet him, and didn't say anything.
Everyone came to greet Xiao Fuji, and no one paid attention to the female officials and eunuchs who accompanied him.
Fairy Huang and Master Badou lazily saluted from behind. Somehow, the two demons shuddered at the same time, and a familiar feeling of being watched that made their skin tighten came over them.
The two monsters subconsciously raised their heads and looked around, but found nothing unusual.
It was the other party's unusual movements that attracted them to each other.
Fairy Huang and Badou'er looked at each other, and the two demons pushed forward in unison, squeezing to the side of Xiao Fuji.
The woman named Yu Niangzi who was following Lan You was about to greet them, but was pushed aside by the two monsters.
"Your Majesty, long time no see~"
"Your Majesty has become more handsome and energetic. Dayong is truly thriving under your governance!"
The two demons' sudden change to flattery left many people puzzled.
Madam Yu was nearly knocked down by the blows, but Lan You helped her up. She stared at the two monsters' backs with hatred, and kept this account in mind. After the banquet was over, she would definitely teach these two evil beasts a lesson!
"Sir Huang, Mr. Ba, long time no see." Xiao Fuji also nodded to the two monsters. He noticed the change in the two monsters' attitudes and thought that these two were quite perceptive. He did not show any expression on his face and entered the museum while chatting with the two monsters.
Wei Zhili was also squeezed to the side by the two monsters, feeling somewhat helpless. He had not paid attention to the female officials and eunuchs who followed him. It was only when one of their gazes was too hot that he looked over and met the female official's sparkling eyes.
Those eyes were too beautiful, as if there was a faint light condensed in them, and upon closer inspection, they were like a deep pool that could drown a person's soul.
Wei Zhili has seen many people who were obsessed with their own appearance. The way they looked at him might be passionate, obsessed, or mixed with all kinds of distracting thoughts, but in these eyes, there was amazement and appreciation.
But that kind of appreciation is very pure, like a painting that makes people happy and will not offend others.
What made Wei Zhili feel strange was that the owner of such a pair of beautiful eyes had an extremely ordinary face. This feeling was too incongruous.
However, before he could take a closer look, his view was blocked.
The one who blocked him was the young eunuch who followed the emperor.
But the word "small" is obviously not appropriate. Although the eunuch's appearance is ordinary, he has a tall and slender figure. When he looks at him, the corners of his eyes droop, revealing a bit of indifference. Being looked at by these eyes, he feels inexplicably frightened.
The gaze only lasted for a blink, and Wei Zhili looked away, following Xiao Fuzhi silently. However, his heart was stirred, and he subconsciously glanced at the female official again.
The other person noticed his peeking and even winked at him playfully.
Wei Zhili was startled and immediately looked away, feeling even weirder.
Are these two really a female official and a eunuch?
Since His Majesty brought them here personally, they are obviously one of his own, and perhaps they have a great background.
But...pretending to be a female official is fine, but which important person would pretend to be a eunuch?
Cang Ming, the big shot pretending to be a eunuch, glanced at the smiling female official Shasha beside him and whispered, "Does it look good?"
Qing Wu: "It's beautiful, you are indeed worthy of being called 'the beauty of a distant man', Master Wei."
"Well, Xie Shaoyuan is dead now, old and bad-tempered, Bai Yueguang is no longer suitable for him."
"Master Xiao Wei is in his prime, and is truly Bai Yueguang's perfect choice!"
Cang Ming listened to the ghost girl's mumbling in his mind, pursed his lips and pressed them downwards, and replied faintly in his heart:
"Don't praise other men in front of me."
"Xiao Chenyan will be jealous."
Qing Wu: “…” Yan Tai is your chosen scapegoat, right?
