The clamor from the crowd escalated upon the verification of Xiao Yueyin’s identity. All eyes moved and focused on her.
Xiao Yueyin didn’t pay any mind to them, she was simply too used to these kinds of scenarios.
But she did turn to Ji Xian and give him an arrogant look that was full of meaning.
Are you seeing this? This is the prestige of the Dragon Saintess! How dare you constantly look down on me. Hmph!
Ji Xian naturally knew what she was thinking.
While holding in his laugh, he sent her a message using his spiritual sense.
“O mighty Dragon Saintess, you should remember to wear some undergarments next time. Someone with your status shouldn’t be walking around like that. You’re lucky you met me if it was any other man…”
*Crackle*
A crackling came from Xiao Yueyin’s fist. Her face turned pink from embarrassment while she tried her best to keep her facial expression neutral.
She screamed internally, Ahhh! Why did he have to bring that up?! Idiot! Asshole! Ji Xian, I’ll remember this!!
Before she can calm down, his voice sounded in her mind again.
“Wait a minute… are you wearing any right now?”
“…”
The disciple from the Ardent Yin Sect who greeted Xiao Yueyin earlier speechlessly looked at her.
Xiao Yueyin’s face kept changing colors and the icy cold aura exuding from her body was actually making the disciple feel a little uncomfortable.
“Uh, um, Saintess Yueyin?” The disciple called out.
“Hm?”
The voice brought Xiao Yueyin back to reality. She briefly glared at Ji Xian before ignoring him.
“Would it be all right if we enter the sect?” She asked the disciple.
“Of… of course! I’ve already notified the Third Yin Pavilion Master. She’s currently busy with some matters but she’ll look for you when she’s done.”
Xiao Yueyin nodded.
She walked past the disciple and proceeded toward the gate with Xia Lihua and Ji Xian.
When the group of scholarly-looking men saw the two women heading their way, they straightened their backs and tried their best to stand out. A few of them even secretly took out a mirror to check their hair.
Unfortunately, their efforts were in vain. Their presence was completely disregarded.
Seeing this, they unanimously decided to express their unhappiness at Ji Xian, who was closely walking behind Xia Lihua and Xiao Yueyin.
“Look at that bastard… I bet he’s laughing at us right now. Hmph!”
“I bet he’s wearing a mask because he’s ugly. Hmph!”
“Hmph! A servant’s forever a servant. Hmph!”
“Damn it, I don’t know why but just looking at him is pissing me off. Hmph!“
Even though they were whispering amongst themselves, Ji Xian easily heard them.
With a bitter smile, he said, “What the hell did I do?”
Xia Lihua giggled, as well as Xiao Yueyin.
“That’s what you get.” She happily muttered under her breath.
Just when they’re about to pass through the gate, a powerful presence can be felt from afar quickly approaching the Ardent Yin Sect.
“That’s… Senior Yue Li?” Someone exclaimed.
“It is!”
Hearing this name, Xiao Yueyin stopped and waited for the newcomer’s arrival.
Before long, a middle-aged man with a stern expression appeared in everyone’s visions. Standing behind him was a fairly handsome young man who looked to be eighteen. With a constant grin on his face, he observed everything around him with interest.
“Senior Yue Li.”
Everyone respectfully greeted the middle-aged man.
He indifferently nodded before walking past them and stopped before Xiao Yueyin. He slightly bowed, “Dragon Saintess, I didn’t expect you to be here.”
The young man hurriedly copy Yue Li’s actions and bowed as well but his eyes were darting between Xia Lihua and Xiao Yueyin.
“Senior Yue Li, you have come as well.”
“Yes. It has already been many years…” The middle-aged man sadly sighed, “After all this time, I am still unable to cure the First Yin Pavilion Master. I am unworthy of my title as the White Hand.”
Xiao Yueyin shook her head, “You are the only reason why Senior Fang Yu is still alive today. There’s no need to downplay your abilities, Senior Yue Li.”
They exchanged some more pleasantries before Yue Li turned to Xia Lihua. Just from her aura and appearance, he can immediately tell she was someone extraordinary, “This person is…?”
“She is…” Xiao Yueyin hesitated, “She is my sister, Xia Lihua.”
“Sister?”
Yue Li, along with the others in the area who were eavesdropping repeated in surprise.
Does the Dragon Saintess have a sister? Since when? Not to mention their surname is different…
“The apple truly doesn’t fall far from the tree.” Yue Li said in amazement.
Xiao Yueyin sweetly smiled before doing something that threw everyone off. With a cheeky grin, she pointed to Ji Xian and introduced him, “And this is our family’s servant, Xiao Xian.”
“Uh…” Yue Li was taken aback.
Why are you introducing your servant to me? Why would I even care about the name of your servant?
His eyes moved to the casual-looking figure wearing a veil.
Ji Xian nodded his head at Yue Li, “What’s up.”
“…”
“The hell!? How dare you speak to the White Hand in such a manner!” Someone from the crowd exclaimed.
“Know your place, you house servant!”
“Dragon Saintess, you should hand this person over to us. We’ll teach him some manners for you!”
“…”
Xiao Yueyin was speechless. Her mouth twitched after seeing all the pitchforks pointed her way. She promptly regretted trying to get back at Ji Xian.
Just when she was planning to speak up to clear the misunderstanding, she heard Ji Xian’s voice coming from behind her.
“Young Lady, your servant is being bullied. Don’t you think you should do something? I’m not too picky, just take all of their spatial rings as punishment. Seeing how poor they look, I’m not expecting much but it’s enough.”
The group of scholarly-looking men angrily glared at Ji Xian after hearing him. If looks can kill, who knows how many times Ji Xian would be dead. They wanted to throw more curses at him but suddenly, they remembered that he is, after all, the servant of the Dragon Saintess.
Would she actually punish them? They weren’t sure, and they sure as hell don’t want to find out.
…
Sensing how tense the air was, Xiao Yueyin awkwardly coughed, “Xiao Xian, mind your manners. We should just let this matter go.”
“All right, but you’ll owe me one, Young Lady.” Ji Xian said reluctantly.
“…Fine.” Xiao Yueyin clenched her teeth. She was already feeling exhausted from his antics.
On the side, Xia Lihua watched all this with great amusement. She inwardly laughed after seeing that Ji Xian was able to get another favor from Xiao Yueyin.
Suddenly…
“Yueyin!” A voice called out and a woman with a seductive figure walked out from the gate to the Ardent Yin Sect.
Xiao Yueyin turned around and greeted this familiar figure.
“Xinyi, you’re here.”
The clamor from the crowd escalated upon the verification of Xiao Yueyin’s identity. All eyes moved and focused on her.
