Chapter 1199 Fellow Daoist Ye, you are here
There was no time to practice, and more than half a month passed before I knew it.
On this day, Ye Chunyang was immersed in the sacrifice of the Seven Star Sword Array when there was a knock on the door.
He put away the flying sword and opened the door calmly. A maid bowed slightly and said, "My servant, please see Mr. Ye."
"Is there a problem?"
This maid was sent by Mrs. Zheng to take care of his food and daily life, but Ye Chunyang usually stayed behind closed doors and rarely called her over.
"Master Qi, someone just sent an invitation to you by name." The maid raised her head slightly, seemingly respectful, but there was a hint of contempt in her eyes.
"Okay, I understand, just let it go."
Ye Chunyang nodded.
Seeing his gentle expression, the maid felt even more contemptuous.
After all, she is a loser, and she has become spineless after marrying into the Nie family.
Putting down the invitation with a sneer, the maid turned her head and walked out without looking at Ye Chunyang.
Ye Chunyang frowned secretly, opened the invitation and looked at it.
It turned out to be sent from Lingmiao Pavilion.
Today, Lingmiao Pavilion will hold an elixir auction, and Cheng Ye specially invited him to attend.
Ye Chunyang didn't like the elixirs refined by the low-level alchemists in Lingmiao Pavilion, but since Cheng Ye personally sent the invitation, it was hard to refuse.
"That's all, let's go and have a look."
Ye Chunyang muttered and went out alone.
…
At the same time, in a high-end seat somewhere in Lingmiao Pavilion, several boys and girls were sitting together, seeming to be talking about something extremely happy, and from time to time they let out delicate laughter like silver bells.
Nie Xin was among them.
The two girls next to them are Han Feiyan from the Han family and Chen Xue from the Chen family. The others are the daughters of various powerful forces in Lindu City.
Several girls were gorgeously dressed and all of them were as beautiful as flowers, and they immediately attracted most of the attention in the pavilion.
"Xin'er, it is said that there will be many high-quality elixirs in this elixir auction, which are more important than those that appeared in the previous elixir fairs. This is a rare opportunity, and we can't miss it."
Chen Xue pulled Nie Xin's sleeves and said with a smile.
Nie Xin leaned against the window edge and looked out the window quietly, wondering what she was thinking in her heart.
She and Chen Xue had always had a good relationship. When she heard the other person's voice ringing in her ears, she turned around faintly and nodded lightly.
Nie Xin glanced at her and wanted to say something, but he seemed to be not very interested and finally agreed softly.
"Xin'er seems to be in a bad mood today. Why, is it because she is about to get married to the Young Master of the Ye family, so she is extremely happy and sad?"
A giggle came from the opposite side. Han Feiyan, the daughter of the Han family, pursed her lips and chuckled. Her seemingly caring words actually contained a hint of schadenfreude.
As she spoke these words, the girls around her also started laughing.
Recently, the news of Young Master Ye marrying into Nie's family with a marriage contract has spread throughout Lindu City. However, Young Master Ye's reputation as a good-for-nothing is also well-known, and paired with a proud daughter like Nie Xin, it is a big laugh.
Han Feiyan was jealous of Nie Xin's qualifications and appearance, and used this matter to suppress her, which was extremely satisfying.
Nie Xin's face turned cold.
Just then, a figure appeared in his sight.
Seeing the other party's face, Nie Xin felt even more disgusted.
"Xin'er, it turns out you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time. It seems that you have also received invitations from Lingmiao Pavilion."
Qi Mubai walked over with a warm smile.
Before he finished speaking, he sat down next to Nie Xin.
"Hehe, the Second Young Master Qi still has good intentions and shows his kindness to Xin'er in every way. Compared with that good-for-nothing Young Master from the Ye family, he is thousands of times better. In my opinion, if Xin'er had broken off your engagement with that good-for-nothing, Wouldn't it be better to marry Mr. Qi?" Han Feiyan said with a smile.
"Since Miss Han thinks that Second Young Master Qi is so outstanding, wouldn't it be better for you to marry her yourself?" Nie Xin sneered.
"you……"
Han Feiyan was furious.
On the other side, Qi Mubai's smile did not diminish, but there was an imperceptible gloom in his eyes.
The reason why he pursues Nie Xin is probably because the strength of the Nie family can help him seize power in the Qi family. The other party's repeated cold words to him made him lose face.
"Hey, look, isn't this the young master of the Ye family?"
Suddenly, a surprised voice came over. The speaker was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, pointing to somewhere downstairs.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were drawn to him.
Sure enough, a young man wearing ink clothes was slowly walking upstairs.
"He is indeed Xin'er's fiancé. I didn't expect you two to be together."
Han Feiyan and Nie Xin showed a slight smile.
"But I remember that Lingmiao Pavilion seems to have only invited monks who are successful in qi refining this time. Xin'er, your fiancé seems to be a waste with low cultivation, right?"
Nie Xin's face was as dark as water, and she stared coldly at Ye Chunyang, who was walking slowly and looking around.
All her shame came from this trash, yet he still appeared here to cause trouble for her.
Nie Xin stood up with a gloomy expression and walked forward quickly.
When the sons and daughters of several noble families saw this scene, they all had playful smiles on their faces.
There's something good to watch!
A dark look flashed in Qi Mubai's eyes. He glanced at Ye Chunyang who was walking towards him, waved his hand to the servant beside him, and whispered something in his ear.
Then, she sat there with an undiminished smile, looking detached and elegant.
Ye Chunyang was walking when a figure suddenly blocked him in front of him.
"What are you doing here?" Nie Xin stared at him with a cold face.
Ye Chunyang frowned and replied calmly: "I'm here to participate in the elixir auction."
Before Nie Xin could speak, there was a burst of laughter from behind, and strange eyes fell on Ye Chunyang.
"Oh, it turns out Mr. Ye is also here to participate in the auction."
"I'm afraid that the elixirs here are too expensive and may not be suitable for Young Master Ye to take."
"Haha, there are pills here to improve your cultivation, but there are no pills to treat waste!"
"..."
All the young masters from aristocratic families had sneers on their faces.
Nie Xin's fists were clenched and turned white, and his contempt and disgust for Ye Chunyang were extremely high.
The other party's reputation as a waste already made him extremely embarrassed, and the scene like this today made her even more embarrassed.
I'm afraid that after today, all the children of the aristocratic families in Lindu City will laugh at her for this.
"This is not the place you should be, please leave quickly!" Nie Xin suppressed his anger and said coldly to Ye Chunyang.
Ye Chunyang frowned, his expression became a bit colder, and said, "I received an invitation from Cheng Ye. He invited me to come this time. It would be inappropriate for me to just leave."
There was a sudden silence.
The daughters of the noble families all looked at Ye Chunyang like they were looking at monsters.
"What did he just say? Master Cheng Yecheng personally sent him an invitation?"
"How dare he speak out about Master Cheng's name in Lingmiao Pavilion? How courageous he is!"
"He who doesn't know is fearless. How can a loser know who Master Cheng is? Did you see that there is a VIP seat in front of you? If he is really invited by Master Cheng, why not sit there?"
"..."
After a while, the young masters and their daughters were all bursting with laughter and disdain.
Everyone looked at Ye Chunyang from shock at first to ridicule.
One of the rich men pointed to a seat in front of him with a mocking look on his face.
How could Master Cheng, the dignified master of Lingmiao Pavilion and a famous alchemist, send an invitation to an inconspicuous waste?
Qi Mubai also shook his head. He dared to say such big words. This useless man was thinking too highly of himself.
Nie Xin's face turned completely cold, and he couldn't help being shocked and angry: "You still want to use this little trick to promote yourself? Master Cheng is the top of Lindu City, and even my father has to treat him with courtesy. , if you make up this lie and make the master angry, even I can't save you!"
Promote yourself?
Ye Chunyang frowned slightly.
He is the number one monk in the human world, a powerful person in the spirit transformation stage, and countless people can't look up to him. With Cheng Ye's mere spirit transformation level, he can't even catch his eye.
At this moment, a figure intervened.
"Master Ye, Xin'er is in a unstable mood today and has offended a lot of people. In my opinion, it's better for you to go back first."
Qi Mubai's gentle smile made people feel like a spring breeze.
After finishing his words, he continued: "By the way, if Mr. Ye needs some elixirs for cultivation, you might as well go to my Qi Mansion to get some. For Xin'er's sake, Qi will tell me to select the highest quality ones for you."
Although Qi Mu looked kind on the surface, anyone could hear the ridicule and contempt in Qi Mu's words.
"Hehe, Second Young Master Qi is still broad-minded."
"Young Master Ye, if you want to catch up with Xin'er as soon as possible, you might as well go to Qi Mansion. Now that the Second Young Master has spoken, he will definitely not treat you badly."
Everyone around him burst into laughter. While praising Qi Mubai, they did not forget to ridicule Nie Xin, his "fiancé."
It was unprecedented for his fiancé to be so cowardly and humiliated by his love rival in public.
Listening to everyone's words, Qi Mubai looked proud.
Nie Xin frowned secretly. Although she didn't like her good-for-nothing "fiancé", she was a little embarrassed by Qi Mubai's humiliation in front of so many people.
But when she wanted to speak a few words to defend her, she saw Ye Chunyang standing there silently, looking like he neither resisted nor defended, and stopped all the words that came to her lips.
"Since he is so spineless, why should I do anything extra?"
Nie Xin laughed at himself.
If he had listened to his own advice and left here earlier, he wouldn't have had to suffer such humiliation.
Now he brought all this on himself.
Ye Chunyang stood where he was, his expression unchanged.
He raised his head and glanced at Qi Mubai expressionlessly, not wanting to explain anything. He just said lightly: "It is indeed Cheng Ye who invited me here. Believe it or not."
"you!"
Nie Xin was so angry that her body trembled.
Is he still pretending to be cool now?
Doesn't he know that the more this happens, the more he will look down on him?
Nie Xin felt extremely disgusted in her heart and finally couldn't help but burst out.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you are here. I have been waiting here for a long time."
Suddenly, a voice came over.
In everyone's sight, an old man wearing a robe walked towards him with a smile and stopped politely in front of Ye Chunyang.
Ye Chunyang looked at the old man and nodded, "Thank you for the long wait."
"Haha, it doesn't matter. Fellow Daoist Ye's coming has already made my Lingmiao Pavilion shine. It doesn't matter if I wait a little longer." The old man laughed.
The entire venue suddenly fell silent.
Including Nie Xin, all the young masters from aristocratic families stood there with their mouths open, dumbfounded, unable to say a word for a long time.
This old man is none other than Cheng Ye.
