Chapter 175: Ye Wenxin, Who Welcomes All Comers

One Gu Xiangsi was already very hard to deal with, but even her master had come over. “Ye Meijing” felt she was truly unlucky this time. Most importantly, Jin Xiaoqin was the Hall of Teaching’s elder; “Ye Meijing” could not let the fact that she had hired a mercenary be exposed.

“Master, no matter what happens later, you must hold back!” Realizing the seriousness of the situation, “Ye Meijing” gave Fairy Fengya a warning.

Fairy Fengya was quite disgruntled, but she was also one of the Azure Wings Sect’s Twelve School Masters and thus naturally knew about Jin Xiaoqin’s identity and character.

In less than ten seconds, the two had already walked up to “Ye Meijing”.

“Ye Meijing” watched in trepidation as Gu Xiangsi grinned and threw herself forward, only to be met with an unmoving Fairy Fengya just standing there. She seemed unwilling to hug Gu Xiangsi, and she was even more unwilling to let these two ruin her plans.

“Sis, did you eat something bad? Why do you seem a little different today?” However, Gu Xiangsi was a lot more simple-minded compared to others. Seeing Fairy Fengya not speaking, she just assumed Ye Wenxin was somewhat nervous.

“Ye Meijing” wanted to interject but feared that some details might give her away, causing Gu Xiangsi to recognize her. She had no choice but to make a few hand gestures, signaling for Fairy Fengya to find a way to handle the situation herself.

“Oh, just a little nervous.” Fairy Fengya finally spoke up, dissatisfied. Although she was simulating Ye Wenxin’s voice, her tone still carried a certain, indescribable chill.

Even if Fairy Fengya wanted to feign emotions, it seemed that aside from emotional intelligence, she also lacked something called ‘acting skills’. If she was not facing Gu Xiangsi, her acting would have probably gotten countless NGs already.

“Ye Meijing” regretted it the more she thought about it, and then she saw Gu Xiangsi very helpfully talk away.

“So Sis is nervous, but no need to think too much about it. My master says you’re already in the top fifty. She’ll talk to the other elders later about taking you as her disciple.” Gu Xiangsi remained as naïve and carefree as ever. However, perhaps because today’s “Ye Wenxin” gave her a strange feeling, she did not continue with any intimate gestures.

“Ye Meijing” was relieved at first, but after hearing the latter half, she then remembered Gu Xiangsi’s intention for coming over. It turned out that Gu Xiangsi specially came to introduce Ye Wenxin to her master, Jin Xiaoqin.

Hearing Gu Xiangsi finally mention her, Jin Xiaoqin stepped forward. “So you’re Ye Wenxin? You’re indeed a talented one.”

Jin Xiaoqin’s appearance could not be described as very beautiful, but her features gave off a very comfortable feeling; there was heroic spirit in her countenance, rarely found among women. When she saw “Ye Wenxin”, she merely gave a polite smile.

It must be said that this Jin Xiaoqin was also a person of character.

Being able to trick such an eccentric person into accepting new true disciples, “Ye Meijing” felt somewhat impressed, but more so worried.

“You’re too kind.” And the terrifying thing was still happening; not only did Fairy Fengya not show modesty, she even accepted the praise on Ye Wenxin’s behalf.

“Master, Sis is just nervous; she’s not usually like this.” Noticing the displeasure on her master’s face, Gu Xiangsi hastily tried to mediate, sending a desperate, meaningful look at “Ye Meijing”.

“Ye Meijing” wondered if she imagined it; she had an insistent feeling that Gu Xiangsi had found out what was wrong, and had deliberately kept her distance from Fairy Fengya.

But due to her master’s presence, Gu Xiangsi pretended Fairy Fengya was Ye Wenxin and did not uncover “Ye Meijing’s” lie.

“That’s right. Wenxin didn’t sleep well last night. She’s really just nervous.” After receiving Gu Xiangsi’s cue, “Ye Meijing” immediately chimed in to help “Ye Wenxin”.

Jin Xiaoqin laughed while watching this. She shifted her gaze to “Ye Meijing”. Rather than “Ye Wenxin”, she felt the “Ye Meijing” currently speaking was more pleasing to the eye. However, this “Ye Wenxin” reminded her of that hateful Fairy Fengya.

Whether it was her aura or eyes, excluding the huge difference in appearance, everything about her made Jin Xiaoqin feel very uneasy. Naturally, Jin Xiaoqin also examined her with Divine Sense. After confirming that “Ye Wenxin” was not using a disguise, she felt slightly better.

The ensuing conversation was led entirely by “Ye Meijing”. Jin Xiaoqin was so amused that she laughed heartily, and asked for “Ye Meijing’s” name.

“I’m Wenxin’s sister, Ye Meijing. I’m a member of the God King Sect, and I just happened to be visiting my sister today.”

“Ye Meijing” did not forget to establish an identity for herself. She could also see Jin Xiaoqin’s emotional changes as she observed “Ye Wenxin” and “Ye Meijing”.

“That’s fine. If one day, you don’t want to be in the God King Sect anymore, the gates of our Azure Wings Sect will be open for you.” Jin Xiaoqin was a bit disappointed after hearing “Ye Meijing’s” introduction. However, she still smiled and patted her shoulder. Gu Xiangsi seemed like she intended to stay here for a while longer, so Jin Xiaoqin left first and returned to the high platform.

Seeing this, “Ye Meijing” and Gu Xiangsi finally heaved a sigh of relief, and then looked at each other.

In that instant, like a lightning flash, Gu Xiangsi voiced her dissatisfaction: “Sis, why didn’t you tell me you hired a mercenary? You made me lead my master here so boldly. I almost blew your cover!”

“Ye Meijing”, who originally wanted to lecture Gu Xiangsi, had the tables turned on her. She truly could not understand what was going on today. People who should not have come all showed up in front of her and Fairy Fengya. She was frustrated, but could only continue to appease Gu Xiangsi.

“How could I know you’d be so impatient and drag your master over?”

“You have no idea, but the entire sect’s talking about you. They say you have no ability but have a strong backing; you instigate other disciples to work for you; and you even have the Golden Age Dynasty as your patron.” Gu Xiangsi stated this somewhat sourly, remembering her own connections to the Golden Age Dynasty.

In the end, Ye Wenxin still got involved with the Golden Age Dynasty, but Gu Xiangsi was no longer that princess of the former dynasty. She was just the true disciple of a Hall of Teaching’s elder, and without her brother Gu Aotian, all she had left was what her master could give her.

“Is that what they’re saying? But I really don’t have a patron!”

“Ye Meijing” felt helpless. She knew Gu Xiangsi was just trying to help her find a true master, but Fairy Fengya was standing right next to her. How could she dare to betray her?

However, “Ye Meijing” would rather choose Jin Xiaoqin over Fairy Fengya. Of course, these thoughts could only stay in her mind. Facing Gu Xiangsi’s dissatisfaction, “Ye Meijing” could only continue to appease her…

The conversation between the two continued, with Fairy Fengya quietly standing by the side, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

She did not know how many times she had furrowed her brows today. The more she understood, the more she realized that Ye Wenxin’s character was really problematic. Xiao Zhang earlier could be excused due to her age, but this girl looked no more than sixteen. It made Fairy Fengya wonder if “Ye Meijing” was someone who welcomed all comers.
