The bright sunlight shone under the eaves of the inn. Two women were standing at the door, casting two graceful shadows on the ground.

Dongfang Liren was wearing a dignified and noble python dress. Her figure was extremely tall, and her curves were rather heroic. From the side, her legs were very slender, and her hip line formed a shapely curve at the back of her waist. Farther up was a three-dimensional fat-headed dragon outlined by silver threads. Coupled with her unsmiling expression, she had the pressure of a cold queen.

Daoist Xuanji was standing half a step behind her. Compared to Dongfang Liren, her figure was more graceful. Her waist was as slender as a willow, and her chest was plump. Her white dress, which was as smooth as water, made her look spotless. But the few embroidered petals at the hem of her skirt and the red wine gourd hanging at her waist made her look less formal, making it difficult to distinguish if she was good or evil.

If it were any other time, Daoist Xuanji would have stood very casually. She might have crossed her arms, leaned against the door frame, and drank wine.

But because the person she was going to meet was rather special, Daoist Xuanji still put on the bearing of an ‘imperial teacher’. She had her hands folded at her waist, and the expression on her beautiful face was meticulous. Her eyes were ‘kind and peaceful’, making her look like a highly respected ‘female master’.

Ye Jingtang walked across the street with the Hornless Dragon Saber hanging at his waist. When he saw the ‘newbish and fun-loving’ master and disciple pair from afar, he felt that Dumdum looked more imposing.

As for Daoist Xuanji, because of her clothes, no matter how proper her bearing was, she still felt a little demonic.

But it was certainly difficult to say these judgmental words.

Ye Jingtang reached the foot of the stairs and cupped his hands respectfully. “Your Highness!”

“Chirp chirp!” The bird was still holding Daoist Xuanji’s skirt in its mouth and shaking its head vigorously. When it saw Ye Jingtang arrive, it put on an aggrieved expression. It probably wanted Tangtang to help beat up Sister Heartless.

“No need to stand on ceremony.” Dongfang Liren didn’t dare to be too intimate with Ye Jingtang in front of her master. She raised her hand and introduced seriously, “This is Daoist Xuanji, my respected master. She is the sixth peerless expert in the world. You can call her Ms. Imperial Teacher, or you can call her Fairy Lu like the people in the Black Office. Master, this is Young Master Ye, Ye Jingtang.”

Daoist Xuanji had the aura of an expert as she nodded slightly without batting an eyelid.

After Ye Jingtang had seen Daoist Xuanji’s playful appearance, it was very difficult for him to treat this sister in front of him as an expert. Furthermore, a few days ago, she had hugged him and rubbed against him, which was a little ambiguous after all. When they met again, he felt very strange.

After Ye Jingtang glanced at Daoist Xuanji, he raised his hands and bowed. “Greetings, Fairy Lu. I have heard of your name since I was a child. Seeing you today, you’re indeed extraordinary.”

Dongfang Liren felt that Ye Jingtang’s flattery was a little perfunctory. She said softly, “My master only ranked eighth ten years ago. You’ve heard of my master’s name since you were a child?”

Ye Jingtang blinked. “Ten years ago, I was eight.”

Eightyears o/d? Dongfang Liren was slightly stunned. Although she knew Ye Jingtang’s age, he looked about the same age as her and had a mature temperament, so she had always treated him as a peer. When she heard him say that he was only an eight-year-old kid ten years ago, she couldn’t help being a little stunned. After all, her sister had already ascended the throne ten years ago. Wouldn’t this make her an old horse pulling a young cart…

Due to her personality, Daoist Xuanji didn’t have as many strange thoughts as Dongfang Liren. She only smiled and said, “Young Master Ye, you’re really young and promising.”

“Hehe, thank you for your praise, Fairy…”

Ye Jingtang and Daoist Xuanji felt a little awkward. Because of this, their conversation was very formal. Basically, it was just a conversation of superfluous respectful words.

Daoist Xuanji felt that chatting like this was boring. After saying a few words, she looked down at the little bird, who was still beating her up. “I’ll take it out for a walk. You guys chat.”

“Chirp?” The bird moved to the side and signaled: I am firm and unyielding, and I am definitely not servile…

“Cluck Cluck- Let’s go. I’ll bring you to eat something delicious.”

The bird was stunned for a moment. Then it raised its wing and said goodbye to Sister Fat-Headed Dragon before staggering away.

Ye Jingtang had long understood the temperament of the bird. After shaking his head and watching the human and bird leave, he stepped onto the steps of the inn.

Dongfang Liren secretly heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her master leave, but her cold expression didn’t soften. She entered the hall with Ye Jingtang and stood with her hands behind her back without saying a word.

Ye Jingtang wanted to ask about the situation in the mountains, but before he could say anything, he noticed that Dumdum didn’t look too happy. It seemed that she was going to reprimand him. He felt puzzled. “Your Highness?”

Seeing Ye Jingtang’s blank eyes, Dongfang Liren frowned and said, “What did you do last night? Have you forgotten?”

Last night, Ye Jingtang first gave Third Lady some meat and then was ridden in turns. The impact was so great that he really forgot about what had happened. When Dumdum mentioned it, he remembered about the scoundrel incident and apologized. “My mind wasn’t clear yesterday. Please don’t mind me for offending Your Highness.”

Only then was Dongfang Liren satisfied. “It’s good that you know your mistake. On account that you were injured because of work, I will let bygones be bygones. There won’t be a next time.”

After expressing her attitude, Dongfang Liren looked back at the door and asked, “My master is such a powerful figure. Don’t you have any thoughts when you see her?”

“Hmm… She feels very fairy-like. It seems like she stands alone between heaven and earth and feels like a breeze sprinkling blue snow. As for how powerful she is, 1 haven’t seen it. I think I’ll have to spar with her to realize it…”

“If there’s a chance, I’ll tell my master about this and give you a chance to ask for guidance.”

Ye Jingtang was rather interested in sparring with experts. He nodded slightly and thought of something. He looked at Dumdum beside him. “Has Your Highness learned the Overlord Spear and the Wind Listening Palm?”
