Chapter 3, Celestial Envoy
Miss Wei Si cast a glance at me, her face darkened with disdain as she said, "How dare a person who is neither here nor there approach my third sister?"
The elderly man with white hair nodded and said, "In a moment, I will send someone to escort you back to Wei Capital."
He lightly set aside these few words, and the young man closed his eyes to cultivate his spirit
Yes
In response to Miss Wei San's questioning, the young man slightly narrowed his eyes and chose to ignore it
During this bone measurement, the esteemed immortals did not announce the results on the spot. They simply instructed us to enter one by one, placing our hands on a towering jade disc, while an elderly man lightly pressed his right hand on the top of our heads. After every ten breaths, they would have the measuring youth step back, allowing for a rest of half a stick of incense before calling in the next individual
Miss Wei San, after gracefully accepting the adoration of the crowd, was waiting for the celestial envoy to descend and reiterate the situation. However, when she looked up, what she saw was the figure of the heavenly steed racing towards the Azure Green Mountain. Startled, she opened her mouth to call out.
Miss Wei San's words reminded everyone, and a pair of gazes simultaneously turned towards the young man
What she means is that she should land before everyone else, even before the celestial envoy, being the first to receive the worship of the masses
Just as Miss Wei Si was startled and inevitably felt a sense of frustration and resentment, the young man waved his right hand, and dozens of jade slips flew out, landing on our laps in an instant. "From today onwards, I will guard Wei Capital. You should diligently study the contents of this book. If there are any points of confusion, you may consult me."
Our cloud vehicle is still hovering in the sky, while the Wei capital is already a sea of people. In front of the Wei Prime Minister's residence, it is even more densely packed with the powerful and influential, all of whom are looking up at us.
Isn't it said that one should test the root bones to see who is the phoenix
Miss Wei San smiled gracefully, turning her gaze towards the direction of Tiandu City for a moment. She then elegantly bowed to the young man and said, "Immortal envoy, could you tell us more about the Holy Monarch?" In this world, the only one worthy of her was that son of the Heavenly Emperor, so she inquired of this so-called immortal envoy who was running errands for others, surely he would not dare to refuse her request.
As the cloud car circled, Miss Wei San gracefully stood up, elegantly smoothing her hair to enhance her already exquisite appearance, looking even more poised and dignified.
After an unknown amount of time, an elderly man with white hair emerged. He looked at us for a moment, coughed, and asked, "Do you all come from the State of Wei?"
However, very soon, Miss Wei San closed her mouth. Once she regained her composure, she met the gazes of the crowd, which had just moments ago been filled with envy and respect, but at this moment had all turned into suspicion
The young man withdrew his gaze and casually flicked his hand, sending out thirty-four storage bags. He spoke gently: "Here are some materials for cultivation, as well as one hundred taels of gold. Additionally, there is a jade pendant issued by Tiandu City. With this pendant, you can have the local authorities send your relatives to Weidu. The one hundred taels of gold is for your peace of mind while you cultivate."
The young man glanced at Miss Wei San and said gently: "The Holy Monarch is one of the most powerful figures in this world, and his cultivation is unfathomable. As for his matters, I do not dare to speak lightly."
As her cloud vehicle descended, the crowd below quickly parted to make way.
We all turned our gaze towards Miss Wei San, and for a moment, an indescribable feeling of jealousy and envy surged within us. Meeting our eyes, Miss Wei San first blushed, then slowly straightened her back, and in the blink of an eye, she appeared more regal than a princess!
After a moment, he smiled nonchalantly and said, "Sure."
Upon seeing Miss Wei San, the phoenix, arrive, the cheers from both inside and outside the Wei residence grew even louder
A tall young man glided down from beside our cloud chariot on a celestial steed, and he spoke in a gentle tone: "Since the beginning of time, the arrival of the phoenix has been unprecedented; Miss Wei San possesses extraordinary qualities, and she must be the ancient divine phoenix."
As the old man's voice fell, all the young people were taken aback in unison, and I also widened my eyes, looking at the old man in confusion
What is this for
Oh, didn't we just say it was to be set at the Wei Prime Minister's residence? How has it changed all of a sudden?
Amidst the clamor of the crowd and the astonished, excited expressions of those present, Miss Wei Si discreetly glanced at the proudly standing Miss Wei San beside her, and continued to raise her voice, saying: "And after the divine master has appraised the bones, that unique and extraordinarily noble phoenix is none other than our esteemed Miss Wei San of the Wei Xiang residence, Wei Lingyue"
With a sudden flick of his hand, we all felt a blur before our eyes, our bodies swayed, and when we opened our eyes again, we found ourselves seated in a cloud carriage, with the capital city beneath us being Wei.
I had just picked up the jade tablet when I heard the dignified voice of Miss Wei San questioning from ahead, "May I ask, Immortal Envoy, why is my book the same as theirs?"
After such a long time, we have all been tested. Standing outside the grand hall, looking at the slightly closed doors, we exchanged glances, feeling both nervous and expectant.
On one side, a flash of jealousy quickly crossed Miss Wei Si's gaze, but soon after, she happily said to Miss Wei San: "That's wonderful, that's wonderful, I am truly so happy. Third sister, third sister, from now on, no matter who I meet, I can tell them that my third sister is a phoenix reincarnated, the most extraordinary person in the world"
Miss Wei Si caught her gaze, first lowering her head, then, with a smile, she took a step forward and called out loudly below: "Let it be known to all, this time the appraisal revealed a phoenix, a legendary creature that has existed since the beginning of time..."
The young man on the Pegasus glanced at her nonchalantly and then slowly said to us: "My dojo will be established on the Qingbi Mountain to the west of the palace. If you have any questions in the future, you may go there."
Seeing that he truly does not regard himself highly, Miss Wei San felt a surge of anger in her heart. However, she has always been composed; with a graceful smile, she said, "Thank you for the information, Immortal Envoy." Retracting her gaze, Miss Wei San arrogantly swept her eyes over us. Under her scrutinizing gaze, the young men regained their senses, and one by one, the cloud carriages surrounded her, vying to flatter and please Miss Wei San.
The young man gazed at Miss Wei San
Miss Wei San looked down at the ants below, a dignified smile gracing her lips. She turned to the celestial envoy and said, "Celestial envoy, may I request that my cloud chariot be allowed to descend first"
The elder became serious and said, "Your family members, as well as your own person, will also be brought to Wei Capital. You need not worry about the usual teachings and imparting of knowledge; I will arrange for someone to handle it properly."
Having said that, he maneuvered Miss Wei San's cloud vehicle, allowing it to be the first to descend towards the open area outside the Wei Minister's residence
In just a short while, her cloud vehicle had descended lower and lower from the sky.
As soon as the sound faded, he waved his sleeve, and our cloud carriage began to descend towards a location far from the Wei Minister's residence. Then, without giving us a moment to react, the young celestial horse soared directly towards the nearby azure peaks!
The astonished youths gazed at the approaching Wei capital, unable to restrain their shouts. Just as their excitement reached a peak, a deep, youthful voice came from behind, saying, "You need not worry about these matters; I will clarify them to your sovereign."
Miss Wei San looked at the scene with satisfaction. When the cloud car was only five meters away from the ground, she gracefully stepped out of the cloud car and floated down to the ground with an enchanting demeanor
Miss Wei Si originally possessed some cultivation; with this full exertion of her energy, her words echoed loudly, and the entire Wei capital was resounding with her voice
Suddenly, a wave of resentment surged forth. Gritting her silver teeth, Miss Wei San secretly thought: How dare a mere errand runner treat me this way! Once I have perfected my skills, I will surely repay today's humiliation!
The young man glanced at Miss Wei San and smiled, saying, "This is an order from the immortal. If Miss San has any dissatisfaction, she may inquire directly with the immortal." After this remark left Miss Wei San momentarily speechless, the young man waved his hand, guiding the cloud carriage and heavenly horse to slowly descend towards Wei Capital, while gently stating, "My residence is tentatively set at the residence of the Prime Minister. If you have any questions, you may come to the Prime Minister's residence to find me."
As soon as Miss Wei Si's voice fell, a clamor erupted below. After the clamor subsided, a deafening cheer resounded from inside and outside the Wei Minister's residence
Yet, it is unknown when a magnificent Pegasus followed behind us
Miss Wei San, having spoken these words, wore an expression of nobility and arrogance. She quietly gazed at the celestial envoy, and although she smiled without uttering another word, her expression clearly conveyed the message of who was superior and who was inferior.
At that moment, the young man, who had been resting with his eyes closed, spoke up. He gently cleared his throat and said: "The immortal has issued a decree: all thirty-six of you are hereby regarded as esteemed individuals, and no one is permitted to harm one another, nor may you engage in mutual destruction!"
Miss Wei San restored her graceful smile. When the cloud vehicle descended leisurely to a height of about ten meters above the ground, she cast a glance at Miss Wei Si beside her
At this point, the old man flicked his sleeve and said, "Go back!"
We were still facing each other when Miss Wei San, descending in a spiral, suddenly turned her head back. Suppressing her anger, she glared at the celestial envoy and, with her eyes lowered, smiled as she said: "Celestial envoy, this is not appropriate, is it?"
Sister San, you possess the heavenly roots; is it not possible for you to enter the Heavenly Capital to learn the art of immortality
I hesitated for a moment in place, but ultimately drove the cloud vehicle closer. At that moment, everyone was gathered around Miss Wei San, and if I did not make any move, it would be too conspicuous
Uncontrollably, Miss Wei San's anger flared up again
