Chapter 488 - A Sinister Scheme (1/2)

“Exactly. Xiu’er is so pretty and I have never seen even her covering up with a face veil,” continued Jiang Wuhen, grabbing this rare opportunity to soothe his relations.h.i.+p with everybody further.

“Idiot,” barked Su Xiu’er who did not appreciate it in the slightest.

“Whether Elder Sister Xiu’er is pretty or not has nothing to do with you, you a*s. Get lost and stand aside,” said someone else in scolding.

Jiang Wuhen was very hurt. Why did he get scolded even when he had praised other people? Was he really so resented by others? The truth was that he was not actually resented by others, but that he was really resented by others.

“Stop talking,” said Su Yizhi as he observed the veiled woman with a perplexed look and put an end to the expressions of opinions by Su Yanhua and the rest. He went on to welcome the approaching procession of maidens speedily.

“Allow this humble one to introduce himself as Su Yizhi, the clan leader of the Su Clan of the Golden Pill Sect,” said Su Yizhi as he stood before the woman. Although his att.i.tude was neither servile nor overbearing, he had addressed himself as the “humble one”. It was obvious that he had already stooped down to the lowest he could.

‘What background did this woman have exactly?’ Su Yanhua and the rest were not fools and they could hear the meaning within Su Yizhi’s greeting. They were shocked by it and felt suspicious in their hearts. None of them dared speak carelessly anymore.

“I’ve heard that both the Qiu and Su Families of the Golden Pill Sect will be having a Sword Pill Grand Meeting, so I’ve come over to watch the excitement. You don’t have to be bothered by me,” said the woman simply. There was a mighty surge of aura within her chilling voice that made people find it hard to resist obeying what she said.

After saying these few words, the woman continued to walk further into the valley, accompanied by her maidservants. Qiu Gaohe and the rest followed her at a distance that was not too far nor too near. The inner parts of Rejuvenating Valley were extremely vast. It looked like they obviously did not want to have any further interactions with the Su Family before the Sword Pill Meeting.

After walking a few steps ahead, the veiled woman suddenly stopped, turned and glanced at Ling Chuxi.

It was just a glance, but a strong uneasy feeling surged in Ling Chuxi’s heart and her state of mind was suddenly lost. It was as though she had fallen into an endless black hole and was in a daze.
