Chapter 1119: [824] Making an Appearance (Seeking Monthly Votes and Subscriptions) Chapter 1119: [824] Making an Appearance (Seeking Monthly Votes and Subscriptions) Late at night.
In the grandiose ballroom, successful individuals come and go, engaging in conversation.
As the legitimate princess of the Fu Family, Fu Xueyi naturally has no shortage of people coming over to toast.
Of course, those mostly surrounding her are groups of young men and women.
It seems the younger generation has more topics to discuss.
“Where’s Uncle Chen?” But apparently, Fu Xueyi had no interest in these hangers-on.
“Senior Chen is chatting with the head of the Dragon City Night Patrol Department and senior officials from the Military Department, he will be over soon.” A young woman by her side whispered.
“Alright.” Fu Xueyi said, bored.
Someone next to her whispered: “Little Yi, have you heard about the recent events on Liulu Mountain?”
“What happened on Liulu Mountain?” Fu Xueyi felt an inexplicable emotion towards that location.
Of course, she remembered that “Arrogance” of the Ninth Rank Predecessor.
But she was proud to have rejected him.
Still, subconsciously, she was curious about what exactly had happened to him.
Could it be… he was driven away due to his Arrogance?
“Just an hour ago, a group of assassins appeared on Liulu Mountain, and they ended up being killed,” someone else said in a lowered voice.
For the younger generation of these large families, they don’t have the opportunity to kill with their own hands, but they can’t deny the adrenaline rush such incidents bring, it’s exhilarating.
“Killed?”
“There’s supposed to be a Ninth Rank Array Master on Liulu Mountain, why would assassins go there… Enemies?”
The one divulging the information shook their head: “It’s not clear what happened yet, it’s probably enemies, right? For those at the Ninth Rank, who doesn’t have a few enemies?”
Hearing that it was the assassins who died, Fu Xueyi felt a bit of disappointment.
Such reveal was nothing to her.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and on tiptoes, she waved eagerly: “Uncle Chen.”
A middle-aged man with a determined face came over with a smile.
“Little Yi.”
“Uncle Chen, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time,” Fu Xueyi said playfully.
The middle-aged man smiled and did not reject the intimacy. In fact, he also needed to maintain a good relationship with the Fu Family.
“Greetings to Senior Chen…”
The surrounding crowd greeted him continuously, but Chen Gongfei only faintly smiled, nodded as acknowledgment, and did not show the same approachability as with Fu Xueyi, merely giving a cold and casual nod.
“What are you discussing?”
Chen Gongfei asked casually.
The young woman next to Fu Xueyi also carried the surname Fu, albeit from a collateral line, and her family relied on the resources behind Fu Xueyi.
So even though she is nominally a cousin, in reality, she was doing things similar to that of a servant.
She was also very careful around Chen Gongfei.
Chen Gongfei nodded toward her, his gaze subtly sweeping over the young woman’s impressive figure.
“They were just talking about the events on Liulu Mountain,” said Fu Xueyi looking over: “Uncle Chen, do you know about the recent events on Liulu Mountain?”
“Liulu Mountain?”
Chen Gongfei seemed to have heard someone mention it.
But he couldn’t quite remember.
Anything that he can’t remember clearly must not be very important.
“It’s about a Ninth Rank Array Master taking disciples on Liulu Mountain…” Without mentioning the assassination, as far as Fu Xueyi was concerned, that kind of event is nothing significant.
“A Ninth Rank Array Master taking disciples? I do recall hearing something about it,” Chen Gongfei said casually, these matters were just amusing topics occasionally brought up among people of their stature.
Understanding his attitude, Fu Xueyi’s eyes brightened: “Uncle Chen, how powerful is a Ninth Rank Array Master?”
Chen Gongfei shook his head, “Among equals, it is the Warrior who is the strongest. Within seven steps, no matter who you are, all will be blown away!”
His words excited the young crowd present.
Even Fu Xueyi’s eyes shone.
That’s what I thought, what is he worth!
But there was only one person in the room who remained expressionless.
Wang Shiwen!
As a collateral member of the Wang Family, she naturally had the right to participate in such high-society events.
But now, she had already received cultivation transmission from Pei Jinye, and her strength had improved markedly.
In other words, she was no longer the same person she used to be!
Just then, a flamboyantly dressed young woman appeared and approached Wang Shiwen: “Come with me.”
Normally, Wang Shiwen would not dare to refuse.
But today…
As Sister Man walked and talked, she realized there was no response. Turning her head to look, she was stunned to find that Wang Shiwen had not followed her.
She impatiently turned back and walked up to Wang Shiwen: “Why the daze, just come with me.”
Leaning in, she said, “The eldest young master of the Fang Family wants to make friends with you. This is an opportunity not to be missed…”
“I won’t go.”
Wang Shiwen shook her head.
Sister Man was clearly taken aback, “Are you out of your mind today?”
Wang Shiwen looked up at her.
She always used to be obedient, serving tea and water in front of these groups.
But what was the result?
This bunch of people just treated her like a maid!
Now they wanted to push even further!
How could that be!
How could she possibly allow it!
“I said, I won’t go.” Wang Shiwen put down her wine glass and turned to leave.
Sister Man frowned and scoffed, then left.
…
Liulu Mountain.
Sun Yiran had bandages wrapped around his arm and traces of blood on his face, but his excitement was hard to hide.
“Master, I think I’ve made a breakthrough!”
Pei Jinye wasn’t surprised: “But you were still afraid. When you thrusted the third sword, you were obviously faster than him, but fear held you back, causing you to miss the opportunity and get injured.”
Sun Yiran bowed his head after hearing this: “I have taken the lesson.”
“Digest the ‘Lotus Palace’ well, it’s time to teach you the latter part of the cultivation technique.”
After saying this, Pei Jinye reached out and placed his hand on Sun Yiran’s forehead.
A fierce wind swept across the entire scene.
After a moment.
After Sun Yiran left.
Pei Jinye looked at the attribute panel.
The feedback from Sun Yiran had risen to 2.8.
…
“Failed?”
The middle-aged man’s expression turned to shock upon hearing this news.
“How could it fail? Wasn’t it said that Sun Yiran is just a Third Rank Awakener? You couldn’t even handle such a small matter?”
Scarface showed a wry smile: “I sent out all my best people, they were no match at all. And that woman lives in the courtyard of a Ninth Rank. I can’t intervene in what happens next.”
“Ninth Rank?” The middle-aged man was startled, his complexion changing slightly: “Did that person say anything?”
“No. At first, I thought the other party would show up, but it seems they didn’t intend to make an appearance…”
Scarface said in a low voice.
The middle-aged man was somewhat indecisive.
Scarface whispered, “Could it be they knew it was the Song family’s intention, so they didn’t dare to show themselves?”
The middle-aged man pondered: “That’s also possible.”
He was speaking when he suddenly noticed a change in Scarface’s expression. He didn’t understand at first, but when he looked up and saw an additional figure in front of him, all the hairs on his body stood on end.
“Who are you!”
The middle-aged man cried out in alarm.
Pei Jinye raised his hand, his fingers dropping down, and instantly a terrifying force pressed the two men to kneel down with a jolt.
The ground shattered under their knees.

The fear on Scarface’s face was so intense he forgot to speak.
While the middle-aged man bellowed loudly: “I am a man of the Song family.”
“I know.” Pei Jinye said indifferently.
“Crack!”
The sound of bones shattering was piercingly loud!
