"Master Long is here." the servant said loudly.

in the hall.

The children of all the major families have arrived, and Long Li followed Long Jiuxiao into the hall.

The floor is made of green jade, the eaves are carved from rosewood, a huge luminous pearl is hung on the top of the tower, there are chairs on both sides, and singing girls dance for people to watch.

"Isn't this the foolish daughter of the Long family?" someone whispered.

"Really? It doesn't look like that. This woman is so beautiful, like a fairy. How can that idiot be so pretty?"

"Look at the young master of the Long family holding her hand, it's 100% her. This fool is too good-looking, she is simply stunning."

"He is good-looking, but unfortunately he is a fool and cannot practice."

"Even if you are a fool, you have no right to us. This is Master Baili's fiancée."

"I don't think Young Master Baili will marry her."

.......

There was endless discussion.

Long Yue's eyes turned cold. What's the use of beauty for these brainless guys? They are still fools. Sooner or later, she will scratch the face of this fool.

Long Jiuxiao placed Long Li by his side.

As a concubine's daughter, Long Yue could only sit in the back row. Although she was unwilling and her eyes were full of jealousy, she still sat down obediently.

"The dean of Galanyuan is here." The servant said loudly.

Following the voice, everyone looked towards the door. A man in a blue robe fluttered in the wind. His facial features were sharp and handsome. He held a folding fan in his hand, giving people a vague feeling.

This person is not simple. Long Li looked at him and then withdrew his eyes.

"Brother, who is he?" Long Li asked.

Long Jiuxiao looked respectful.

"He is the dean of the Jialan Academy, his name is Wangchen."

"What a nice name."

Long Li's words were a genuine compliment, and the name was really nice, Wang Chen, meaning forget the mundane world.

"The master of the Jiulong Pavilion is here!" the servant said loudly.

"The Lord of the Nine Dragons Pavilion, Di Jue, actually came in person!" The people in the hall began to discuss again.

"That's right. I didn't expect such a mysterious person to come."

“I wonder if I’ll be lucky enough to see the real thing today.”

"This Pavilion Master never shows his true appearance to anyone, you don't even know this."

........

Amid the discussions, the Master of the Nine Dragon Pavilion walked into the hall.

He was dressed in a black embroidered brocade robe and had a silver mask on his face. Between his brows were a pair of deep eyes that revealed a hint of coldness. His temperament was cold but also had a hint of evil charm.

Long Li was shocked. Isn't this the lecher? What a narrow road for enemies to cross. He is actually the leader of the Nine Dragon Pavilion!

She quickly turned her head and hid herself, hoping that this guy would not see her.

Wang Chen saw Di Jue and smiled, "Long time no see."

"Yeah." Di Jue replied indifferently.

Wang Chen seemed to have been accustomed to him like this and didn't care at all. He picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Long Li lowered his eyes and dared not look up.

This lecher is so annoying. He is everywhere. He killed the old man last night and came to attend the birthday party today. He is really perverted!

"Li'er, what's wrong with you?"

Long Jiuxiao saw that she looked listless.

Di Jue paused holding the teacup. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw the woman in white with her head lowered and tilted to one side.

"Brother, keep your voice down, I'm fine."

Why does this voice sound familiar? Could it be the woman who ran away?

Di Jue's eyes were deep. Xueying reported last night that the woman had suddenly disappeared again without any trace, causing him to toss and turn all night.

At this time, Di Jue was sitting diagonally opposite Long Li. As long as Long Li looked up, they could see each other. She could only lower her head to reduce her presence.

"The Palace Master has arrived."

Following the sound, everyone stood up and the atmosphere instantly became unusually quiet.

At the entrance, Baili Xiao, the master of the Holy Dragon Palace, slowly entered the palace with the Baili family's relatives.

Long Li didn't want to stand up, but was pulled up by his brother.

"Be good, Li'er. Sit down later."

Although she was reluctant, she put on a cute smile and glanced at Di Jue. Neither this guy nor that Wang Chen stood up. It seemed that status determined everything.

Baili Xiao and his relatives slowly sat at the top. He had a gentle expression and a smile on his face.

"It is my honor to have you all here to attend my mother's birthday banquet. Please take a seat."

The sons of various noble families sat down one after another. The so-called Holy Dragon Palace was equivalent to the local emperor of the Holy Dragon Continent, above the four great families.

"I am very grateful to the Dean and Pavilion Master for coming to the birthday banquet."

Baili Xiao smiled and looked at the two of them with deep eyes.

"You are too polite, Palace Master. Since I have been invited, I naturally come here to ask for a glass of wine." Wang Chen said in a gentle tone with a blank expression.

Di Jue didn't say anything, he lowered his head as if he was thinking about something, and ignored anyone.

Long Li curled his lips. This Di Jue really didn't give others face. Tsk tsk, Dengtu Zi was really different from others.

"Today is my mother's birthday. Thank you to all the friends who came to celebrate. The birthday party officially begins."

As Baili Xiao's voice fell, the maids and servants began to serve dishes, including fine wine and delicious food.

There were naturally many dancers. As soon as the music started, dancers with revealing clothes and enchanting figures appeared one after another.

What followed was the greetings among everyone.

Long Li looked at the food in front of her, picked up her chopsticks and started eating. After a whole morning of eating, she was really a little hungry.

Long Jiuxiao and the young master of the Feng family who was sitting next to him drank a cup of wine together.

"Young Master Jiuxiao has a good alcohol tolerance. We haven't had a drink together since you went to Jialan Courtyard. This time, Young Master Jiuxiao must drink to your heart's content with me."

Fengzhu was dressed in a black robe, with handsome features and a pair of particularly eye-catching peach blossom eyes.

"Young Master Fengzhu, I'm afraid it won't work today. I have to take care of my sister, so I'll meet you another day until we're drunk."

Feng Zhu looked at Long Li who had been eating, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

"This young master has not seen sister Li'er for many years. I wonder if you still recognize your brother Fengzhu?"

Long Li paused for a moment while eating and raised his eyes slightly to look at Feng Zhu.

"I don't remember. I don't know him."

After saying that, he continued to eat with his head down, with a hint of surprise in Fengzhu's eyes. This girl has grown up to be so beautiful.

Seeing his sister speak so directly, Long Jiuxiao said with some embarrassment, "Young Master Fengzhu, don't mind. Li'er has always been like this."

"I don't mind. Sister Li'er is straightforward and this young master likes this kind of personality very much."

Feng Zhu looked at Long Li. He was stupid when he was young, but now he grew up, he didn't seem stupid anymore. He always felt that his cold eyes did not show stupidity, but rather, were very shrewd.

"Li'er has always been like this. I hope Young Master Fengzhu doesn't mind."

Long Jiuxiao looked at Long Li who was eating, with heartache and pity in his eyes. It was fine for his sister to live like this for the rest of her life, as long as she was happy.

"Young Master Jiuxiao, aren't you being too polite? When we were little, we often played together. If you hadn't gone to the Jialan Academy and I hadn't gone to the Shuiyue Academy to practice, we wouldn't have been apart for so many years."

Feng Zhu spoke sincerely. They had been childhood sweethearts, so how could he mind that Long Li was an idiot.
