Chapter 40: Princesss Arrival (2) (1/2)
Leng s.h.i.+zhi was anxious to put all of his most powerful treasures on his body, afraid that someone wouldn’t know that he was the first genius of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, as well as one that possessed numerous treasures.
In fact, Leng s.h.i.+zhi wasn’t the only one to dress up today, all of the male disciples were adorning beautiful clothings as well. Their treasures were in plain sight on their bodies, afraid that people wouldn’t know that they didn’t have so many treasures.
Li Qiye saw this scene and could only shake his head. He told Protector Mo who was standing near by: ”These people seemed to be attending the circus, not Li Shuangyan’s greeting party!”
Nan Huairen didn’t have the qualification to stand next to the upper echelons during the greeting party, only Protector Mo was next to Li Qiye. Hearing those words, Protector Mo could only show a hollow smile.
”Be more formal!” At this time, Leng s.h.i.+zhi who was standing in front turned back and coldly said: ”Princess Li is the descendant of the imperial family, the most distinguished guest of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect. We must greet her in the most dignified manner, in order to avoid disgrace and shame to our sect!”
Finished speaking, he looked at Li Qiye with disdain.
At this point, Li Qiye alone, was wearing a cotton garment, unadorned by any treasures and looked exactly like a mortal. At first, Leng s.h.i.+zhi was a.s.signed to be standing side by side with Li Qiye, but Leng s.h.i.+zhi believed that he was above the piece of waste, so he took the initiative to stand in front.
”Her royal highness’ presence is definitely an honor to all of us.” Among the male disciples waiting, one excitedly exclaimed.
Leng s.h.i.+zhi was dismissive of these disciples, their talents were so average, how could they win Princess Li’s favor. It was simply a toad wanting to eat a swan’s meat! Hmmph, as for the idiotic Li Qiye, he wasn’t even a toad; he was not even qualified to have such a thought.
WIth this thought, Leng s.h.i.+zhi had an even greater disdain for Li Qiye. Although the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect and the Nine Saint Demon Gate had an ancient marriage pact, only the Prime Disciple like Li Qiye would have the right to marry Li Shuangyan. However, Leng s.h.i.+zhi didn’t care for this ancient convention; Li Qiye was not qualified to marry Li Shuangyan in his eyes, and surely Li Shuangyan would hate a piece of trash like Li Qiye.
In Leng s.h.i.+zhi’s opinion, as long as he had the opportunity to be close to Li Shuangyan, he could please her enough to win her favor. He was extremely confident in himself, he was the first genius of the sect after all!
Li Shuangyan had yet to come. At the ancient gateway, some from the younger generation couldn’t help but quietly whisper amongst each other. A disciple asked: ”This time the princess is coming to our Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, what is her purpose?”
”I heard that the Prime Disciple and the successor of the Nine Saint Demon Gate were determined to be married.” An older disciple knew a little about it thoughtfully said.
”Marriage?” After hearing this answer, one disciple glanced at Li Qiye and contemptuously said.
One disciple said with disdain: ”Him? Hmmph, in my opinion, the princess came to dissolve this marriage. Her royal highness would be dismissive of an idiot with a Mortal Physique, Mortal Life Wheel, and Mortal Fate Palace.”
”Whatever reason it might be for the princess’ arrival, this is a good chance for us to be close to her royal highness.” A disciple excitedly said.
The only person without any interest in these little arguments was Li Qiye. It was fine to occasionally act in a play, but if this took any longer, he would lose his interest!
At this time, an “ooomph” resonated from the Dao gateway, it blindingly illuminated the eyes. The brilliant crystal door was opened, and the dimension between the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect and the Nine Saint Demon Gate was finally connected. A group of people stepped out from the gateway, and the first person was the successor, Li Shuangyan of the Nine Saint Demon Gate.
In addition to her, there were a few familiar faces to Li Qiye, such as Grand Protector Yu He and a few exceptional disciples of the Nine Saint Demon Gate.
Li Shuangyan, still dressed in white, her masterpiece of an alluring face was still cold as snow; arrogant like a G.o.ddess sitting on her throne, causing even the moon and sun to blush in her presence.
As for the male disciples, especially the ones that were seeing Li Shuangyan for the first time, they were stunned by her beautiful face and figure and couldn’t recover for a long time. Even the female disciples found that the appearance of Li Shuangyan totally eclipsed their own, and subconsciously felt ugly in comparison.
The person who claimed to be the first genius of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, Leng s.h.i.+zhi, couldn’t keep himself from staring at Li Shuangyan’s features; he lost his thoughts for a long time, unable to recover.
The Six Elders were surprised because they thought it would just be Li Shuangyan, but Grand Protector Yu He came as well.
One had to know that Yu He was a powerful figure even within the Royal n.o.bles of the Nine Saint Demon Gate. Even the Elders of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect didn’t have the qualification to meet Yu He; but this time, he personally came along, and this made the sect feel quite proud.
