Chapter 17: Crazy Attack on the Elders
Xiao Liyue raised her head and looked at the person who pushed her away. She saw that the young boy was wearing a thin white robe. Although he looked ordinary, he exuded an indescribable nobility.
His smooth and fair face, dark and deep eyes with a charming luster, thick eyebrows, high nose bridge, and handsome appearance made Xiao Liyue's eyes light up instantly.
Although he looks young, his eyes reveal maturity and wisdom.
Xiao Liyue smiled sheepishly and said, "I drank too much today and I can't stand steadily. I'm so sorry for bumping into you."
When the boy heard her voice, his body stiffened and he looked up at her.
After seeing half of her face, he stared at her for a long time, but suddenly his face turned cold and he left without saying a word.
Xiao Liyue looked at the young boy with a confused look on her face, and reached out to touch half of her face. "Is my face scary? Why does it seem like he dislikes me?"
The awakened Chiyi flew out of the space and looked at his master touching his face, mumbling to himself: "Master, what are you doing?"
"Ah! It's okay, it's okay, just continue sleeping!"
She didn't want Chiyi to know her embarrassing story, so she just sent it away. The innocent Chiyi didn't think much about it, flew into her arms for a hug, and then continued to sleep.
Xiao Liyue returned to her palace, lay on the bed, hugged Chi Yi and fell into a deep sleep. After all, she and the second elder had drunk so much spiritual wine.
The next morning, Xiao Liyue was awakened by a series of knocks on the door: "Ninth Elder, are you awake?"
Xiao Liyue stood up and rubbed his temple: "I'm up, is there anything wrong?"
When the female disciple outside the door heard that she had woken up, she said excitedly: "Ninth Elder, you are finally awake! The Great Elder asked me to ask you to go to Xuanling Holy Temple to participate in the annual inner disciple teacher selection meeting."
"Okay... I understand. You can leave first!"
"Yes, Ninth Elder." The woman replied in a low voice, then quietly retreated.
Xiao Liyue looked at Chiyi who was sleeping on her pillow. After washing up, changing her clothes, and casually braiding her hair, she went out carrying Chiyi.
The inner disciples she met along the way all called her "Hello, Ninth Elder", which made Xiao Liyue feel very impressive.
When she arrived at the gate of Xuanling Holy Temple, the guards outside the temple immediately shouted into the hall: "The Ninth Elder is here!"
Xiao Liyue walked into the hall with brisk steps, and the inner disciples here all looked at her.
When the disciples present saw that the legendary new Ninth Elder was so young and beautiful, they were stunned.
Liu Ruxi, who was sitting in the main hall, saw that she attracted countless people's attention as soon as she came in. She felt very uncomfortable. She was the one admired by everyone just now, but as soon as she came, she stole her limelight.
Mo Jingxuan looked at Xiao Liyue in confusion. He found that he could no longer understand her recently. Xiao Liyue now exuded a dazzling glow of confidence, which made him feel out of his reach.
Xiao Liyue ignored their strange looks and sat down in her seat leisurely.
Liu Ruxi, who was standing by, saw that Mo Jingxuan's eyes were still on her, and looked at Xiao Liyue with displeasure: "Junior sister, today is the annual day for the inner disciples of the sect to choose a teacher. How can you be late? You are so willful. If you were like this before, it wouldn't matter, but now you are the ninth elder of the sect, representing our entire sect!"
Xiao Liyue yawned and said nonchalantly, "Oh! Senior sister, you are as talkative as the old woman in the kitchen. People who don't know you would think you are in your seventies or eighties! Besides, the Great Elder didn't say anything to me. When will it be your turn as the Eighth Elder to teach me how to do things?"
"Pfft..." Chu Mingyou, who was standing next to the second elder, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The second elder glared at him, and Chu Mingyou quickly smiled awkwardly: "Sorry, Grandpa, I couldn't help it."
His laughter attracted Xiao Liyue. She turned her head to look at Chu Mingyou who was beside the second elder. She saw that his skin was very fair and looked like a girl. His handsome features looked particularly distinct, especially his lips, which were as rosy as if they were painted with rouge.
However, although he looks very much like a woman, he does not have any of the fragility of a woman, especially his deep eyes, which seem to be able to attract people's hearts.
After reading it, Xiao Liyue couldn't help but sigh that the friends of her future apprentice Yu Fengchen were indeed all handsome young men with good looks.
Chu Mingyou saw Xiao Liyue looking at him, and he couldn't help but look at her as well. When he saw half of her face, he was surprised. It was also the first time he saw her face, and he didn't expect it to be so moving.
Chu Mingyou put on his signature smile and suddenly raised his eyebrows at Xiao Liyue.
Xiao Liyue was amused by him. What a little brat, he actually raised his eyebrows at her.
Liu Ruxi saw Xiao Liyue and Chu Mingyou flirting with each other, and looked at Mo Jingxuan and the elders aggrievedly: "I... I was just saying it. After all, today is a big event. As the youngest sister, I shouldn't let the elders wait for her."
Mo Jingxuan quickly took her hand and comforted her, "Xi'er, don't pay attention to what she said. It doesn't matter if she doesn't like to hear it."
The Third Elder was also displeased when he saw this: "I think what the Eighth Elder said is right. The Ninth Elder made us old guys wait for so long, which is indeed a bit unreasonable. And why did you say such harsh words just now, Ninth Elder?"
Before Xiao Liyue could say anything, the Fifth Elder on the side also said in dissatisfaction: "The Ninth Elder should really learn more from the Eighth Elder. It's ok for a girl to sit in an untidy manner, but why is her mouth so vicious?"
“Ah… I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing to let her be the ninth elder. It’s ok that her cultivation is not good enough, but she also doesn’t respect others.” The fourth elder shook his head helplessly.
The Sixth Elder sneered: "Haha... I guess he became proud and complacent after becoming the Ninth Elder, so he won't listen to us old men!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Liyue was immediately pushed to the forefront.
Xiao Liyue didn't care at all and sneered: "Haha... Why didn't I notice that you guys were talking so much when my father was here?"
When these words were spoken, several elders were so angry that they were about to retort but were stopped by the chief elder.
"Girl Yue is still young! Why are you fighting with her? She drank too much spirit wine yesterday, so it's normal for her to oversleep. Why bother with a child? And girl Yue, you should also say less."
Xiao Liyue waved her hand indifferently, indicating that she didn't care.
"I, an old man, can't stand it anymore. I say, you are all hundreds of years old. What's the point of bragging about bullying a sixteen-year-old child? Besides, Yue girl accompanied me for a drink yesterday. Are you insinuating me? Besides, hasn't the meeting started yet? Why are you so aggressive?" The second elder said angrily.
Seeing this, the other elders had no choice but to shut up and stop talking. After all, the first and second elders had already spoken, and if they continued to argue, it would make them seem short-sighted.
Xiao Liyue smiled and gave the second elder a thumbs up, and the second elder nodded with a proud look on his face.
When Liu Ruxi saw that Xiao Liyue was not punished and was protected by the first and second elders, she hated her even more.
