The garden in Marquis Wen's Estate was huge; it was covered in a carpet of clear grass and lake neighbors, causing the scenery to be gorgeous.
No matter how different they were, all the guests who had come to participate in the 14th anniversary banquet of the Junior Marquis, Wen Hua, gathered here, and could be said to be filled with leading experts. Moreover, all the outstanding young men and women from Corona City, and all the famous and influential figures from all over were gathered in groups of two or three. They drank wine and chatted casually, making it seem a bit crowded.
When I looked at it with Ama, one could notice that on the side of these well-dressed honorable figures were beautiful maids who served them carefully and were very afraid of not taking good care of them enough.
On the other hand, there were only a few young men like Chen Xi who had an unfamiliar appearance and came by themselves, and even if an attendant came to take care of them, it was only the case that, it was neither in a warm nor cold manner.
Of course, Chen Xi did not care about any of this, and she was interested in how this young man by her side, Chen Yan, could enter the estate.
This young man had dark skin, a stern expression, and wore simple clothes. Although their clothes are washed clean, it is not difficult to distinguish that their clothes have been worn for many years.
Just based on this alone, it can be determined that the circumstances of his life are not good.
The banquet here had gathered famous figures from Corona City itself and representatives from the various powers around it. They were all dressed like beautiful peacocks, and they were extremely beautiful.
So someone wearing simple clothes like Chen Yan seemed to be very conspicuous.
Most importantly, Chen Xi noticed that the young man was deliberately hiding behind him, and the young man seemed to be very afraid of being dragged away by others.
This caused him to be unable to resist being curious, and he could not help but ask. "You're called Chen Yan?"
The young man was stunned and never seemed to expect that Chen Xi would talk to him, and then he nodded repeatedly and hesitated for a long time before he said cautiously, "Young Master, I'll just stay here for a while, alright?"
Chen Xi nodded and said, "Of course you can. But shouldn't you tell me the reason first? "Chen Xi's voice was warm, and it caused others to subconsciously lower their guard.
Chen Xi's warm attitude caused Chen Yan to become much more comfortable, and he pursed his lips and was silent for a long time before he lifted his head and gnashed his teeth. "I .. I. Want to take someone as my master! "
Once these words were spoken, Chen Yan seemed to feel much more relaxed, and his speech became even more refined. "Young Master, to be honest, I am only a servant in this land. I risked going to the estate at a young age and constantly suffered humiliation from other cruel servants, yet no one was upholding justice for me. Although I was angry, I never blamed heaven or anything else. I know that if I do not change myself, then even if I get the help of others, it will only be temporary, and the only way to change my situation is to make myself stronger! "
When he spoke here, the space between Chen Yan's brows was filled with a stern expression. “So, three years ago, I started learning to read in secret. In addition, I observed others practicing and training themselves daily for the sake of gaining the help of an expert one day and becoming that expert disciple, so that I would not suffer any more the pain of slavery. ”
Chen Xi was silent. He was very confident that Chen Yan did not lie because at Chen Xi's cultivation level, Chen Xi could clearly sense Chen Yan's soul, and he could also judge whether Chen Yan had lied.
It was precisely because of this that a wisp of admiration could not help but appear in Chen Xi's heart after he finished hearing Chen Yan's account. Experiencing humiliation yet feeling no grudge, suffering many torments yet having the courage to improve. When such temperament was present in a young man at Chen Yan's age, it was much more important and attention-grabbing than the so-called natural talent and natural endowments.
“To be honest with Young Master, I was actually a bit agitated when I came here this time because I had risked everything. If I pay attention, then I will definitely suffer severe punishment. After all, I was still a servant before I could become strong, and the reason I hid behind Young Master was for the sake of hiding myself and avoiding detection. ”
“Maybe someone else can accept this opportunity easily, but it means a lot to me. That's too important. If I let it pass me by, then I guess I won't be able to face such an opportunity all my life. '' Chen Yan spoke in self-mockery, and then he fell silent.
He had skimmed in speech over these years, and he had secretly suppressed all the hardships he had suffered in the depths of his heart. He had not opened his heart and poured it all out in a long time. At this moment, even he found it hard to believe that he was actually talking about so many things that burdened his mind to strangers.
Right at this moment, waves of boisterous sounds suddenly sounded from afar, and the crowd became agitated.
“Whose daughter is she? How pretty! This Young Master had wandered through 38 cities and towns of the Golden Supremacy Kingdom and was used to seeing all sorts of beauties, but I had never seen such a beautiful young lady. ”
"Smooth skin and beauty were born naturally, she was like the Heavenly Girl from the Ice Palace who had descended into the mortal world!"
A cry of admiration rang out, and it caused the views of most of the people present here to be shaken. Moreover, even some of the female guests whose limelight was deprived of attention could not help but look.
After which, they saw a beautiful young lady in violet clothing walking lightly. Her legs were long and slender, her waist was smooth like a flexible willow branch, her neck was long like a swan, her skin was as white as snow and crystalline, and her appearance was beautiful like a painting. Every step he took revealed an extraordinary and proud attitude, and it caused the others to be unable to help but feel ashamed of their inferiority.
As he walked, he practically attracted the views of everyone along the way. No matter if it was a male or a female, they all looked towards here simultaneously, and even some famous seniors had blinked their gazes and were extremely shocked.
Chen Xi frowned when she saw this young lady. Why her?
This young lady was naturally Baili Yan from the Eternal Spirit Mountain. He seemed to have noticed Chen Xi a long time ago, and he had a calm expression as he walked straight on.
"I really don't. "Chen Xi's gaze swept past the two old maids at Baili Yan's side before pulling his gaze. He had already discovered that the two old maids were Eternal Earth Realm experts.
If it was in the past, he would naturally feel depressed when facing such a line, but now, he was not worried at all.
"This is called a pleasant surprise," Baili Yan said with a light smile. Her beautiful face shone and revealed a moving beauty, causing the surrounding crowd to become dazed.
Chen Xi frowned instead. "Speak frankly if you have something to say. ”
Baili Yan took his time instead when he saw Chen Xi was extremely impatient, and his clear eyes swept around before he said unhurriedly, “Actually, he said, you don't need to go through so much trouble to take on a disciple. You just need to announce your name, and that Marquis Wen must be willing to send his son to you. ”
Chen Xi looked to the side, and she saw Chen Yan had caught on as she started talking to Baili Yan to leave, causing her to become a little irritated.
He knew that Chen Yan could be said to have taken an enormous risk by coming here in his identity as a servant, and Chen Yan was most worried about being noticed by the others. However, right now, Chen Yan had no choice but to leave because Baili Yan's appearance had attracted many gazes here, and Chen Yan might feel extremely lost.
Maybe Baili Yan did it by accident. But his appearance undoubtedly suffocated a young man's hopes of becoming strong, so how could Chen Xi not feel annoyed?
"Don't blame me for being rude if you keep bothering me. '' Chen Xi took a deep breath as she looked at the beautiful young lady by the side, and she spoke calmly.
Baili Yan was stunned, and then suddenly laughed like a flower that bloomed after the rain, graceful and moving. "I really want to know how you're going to be rude to me. ”
As he spoke, he lifted up the white snow and long neck while his clear eyes twisted, and he looked at Chen Xi provocatively.
Chen Xi suddenly started laughing as well. "Do you know about the matter of Bing Shitian's maid, Xueyan, betraying him? She was naturally charming, alluring, and extremely beautiful, and she was even in the Eternal Earth Realm. Now, she has become my respectful and respectful servant who shed tears all day long. How do you think it feels if I made you that way? ”
Baili Yan's beautiful eyebrows rose. "How dare you !?"
He was the heir of the Eternal Spirit Mountain that had an honorable status and was able to look down on most of his friends. Yet now, Chen Xi was actually talking about catching him and making him a servant. This is just an extreme humiliation!
Chen Xi remained unmoved, and she replied with a question. "Do you think I don't dare?"
Baili Yan frowned, and his eyes were on the verge of spraying fire as he stared intently at Chen Xi. For the first time, he noticed that the shrewdness and self-control he had always been proud of seemed to be completely useless before this person, and he was angry and hoped for nothing more than to split this person up every time he met her .
"Ha huh! Dear guests, I apologize for not welcoming your previous arrival. "Just as Chen Xi and Baili Yan stared at each other, a deep and heroic voice sounded suddenly and instantly attracted the attention of everyone present here.
The one who came was wearing a golden robe, and he had a tall figure and a dignified expression. He walked with large strides while carrying a majestic and powerful aura. It was the Marquis, Wen Tianshuo, a famous Eternal Earth Realm expert!
A strong-bodied young man with starry eyes followed by his side, and the young man had a heroic demeanor and great spirit. No need to guess, this young man must be the Junior Marquis, Wen Hua.
The moment the two of them appeared, they instantly arrived before Baili Yan under the respectful gazes of everyone present, and then Wen Tianshuo said with a smile, "I'm Wen Tianshuo, may I know which sect Young Miss came from? ”
Meanwhile, Baili Yan had recovered his calmness and composure, and he glanced at Chen Xi casually when facing Wen Tianshuo's question before he said indifferently, saying, “I came here this time just for the sake of looking for someone, and I have no intention of staying long in your esteemed land. As for my origin, there is no need to mention it. ”
His short words seemed flat yet clearly described the arrogance on his bones. Wen Tianshuo was only an abundant Marquis in the world, and if not for some reason, he would absolutely not let such a person catch a glimpse. Even if Wen Tianshuo was an Eternal Earth Realm expert, he did not take him seriously at all.
This was his confidence as the heir of the Eternal Spirit Mountain.
Wen Tianshuo was stunned, and then his expression became even more serious and solemn. The more Baili Yan acted like this, the more he felt his origins were extraordinary. Coupled with him having the protection of the two Eternal Earth Realm experts by his side, such a figure was simply not someone who would intentionally confuse.
"Ha ha . I understand, I understand. "At the next moment, Wen Tianshuo was already laughing out loud, and then he looked at Chen Xi and sized up Chen Xi for a bit before he smiled in shock. “This Young Hero might be the one Young Miss is looking for, right? He really has an impressive and outstanding attitude. ”
Chen Xi shook her head instead. "Marquis, you misunderstood. I don't know him, and I don't have a relationship with him. ”
As soon as these words were spoken, not only was Wen Tianshuo stunned, even everyone around him was flabbergasted. What exactly do the two want to do?
