Chapter 94: The Second Daughter of the Qin Family?
Jiang Yun noticed this situation and could not help but frown. He knew a little about the relationship between Qin Mingzhu and the He family. Back then, in order to prevent the Qin family from ending up like the Yu family, Qin Haisheng had allowed his eldest daughter, Qin Mingzhu, to become acquainted with He Junjie. However, He Junjie also admired Qin Mingzhu very much.
Anyway, Jiang Yun didn’t know if that was really the case.
Jiang Yun swept his gaze across the people at the table.
Other than Qin Haisheng’s wife, Qin Mingzhu, and the young master of the Qin family, Qin Yu, the table Qin Haisheng was sitting at was filled with all sorts of respected elders in Thunder City. However… There was only one empty seat left. And that was… the empty seat between Qin Yu and Qin Mingzhu.
Tonight’s dishes were very delicious. There was vinegar fish from the northern region, steamed preserved meat, secret-made abalone, and so on. Jiang Yun’s eyes were simply dazzled. For a moment, he didn’t know which dish to start with.
It was best not to let Kong Li know that he had come to eat the feast behind their backs. Otherwise, he really couldn’t help but beat up that blabbermouth fool again.
Just as Jiang Yun was about to pick up a piece of preserved chicken, a voice interrupted his actions.
“Father!”
A pretty girl appeared beside Qin Haisheng. This girl was wearing a dress that had a rich Jiangnan culture. Jiang Yun sized her up for a while and saw that this girl was with a beautiful hair bun. A few silver hairpins with pearls were on her bun. Two strands of hair naturally fell from the sides of the girl’s forehead. Under her nose was a pair of moving red lips. The clarity in her eyes was like a clear spring in the mountains under the sunlight, flickering from time to time.
If one really had to describe it, ten beautiful words could not describe the girl in front of him. Everyone present was attracted to this girl.
Could it be… she was…
“You’re right, this is my daughter Xiaoxi.” Qin Haisheng introduced her to everyone with a smug look.
“Wow… she is really a lady from a n.o.ble family, as beautiful as a fairy!”
“I didn’t expect that the daughter of the head of the Qin family would be so beautiful!”
“You flatter me, you flatter me.”
All of a sudden, everyone present began to discuss.
“Xiaoxi greets you, Gentlemen.” Qin Xiaoxi politely bowed and then went to the seat that belonged to her.
Even Jiang Yun was stunned. He had never seen such a beautiful girl.
Compared to Qin Mingzhu, Qin Xiaoxi was completely different. She did not have Qin Mingzhu’s cold and elegant temperament, nor did she look as shrewd as Qin Mingzhu. The only thing that could only be described by Jiang Yun was that she could even captivate the fish and birds. What Jiang Yun felt from her was more of a warm and sweet aura.
However… he seemed to have also felt it.
Qin Xiaoxi actually had spiritual power on her.
Could it be… Could it be that the second daughter of the head of the Qin family was a cultivator? Moreover, he felt that the spiritual power on her body seemed to be above Xiong Ji and Yu Sisi. This couldn’t help but make Jiang Yun sink into curiosity.
“Xiaoxi! This is Sect Master Jiang Yun of the Deity Sect! Quickly greet him!” Qin Haisheng hurriedly said to Qin Xiaoxi.
“h.e.l.lo, Sect Master Jiang.” Qin Xiaoxi looked at Jiang Yun, who was sitting across from her, and smiled slightly. Then, she politely greeted him.
“h.e.l.lo.” Jiang Yun nodded a little embarra.s.sedly. Qin Xiaoxi was only two or three years younger than him. He didn’t expect himself to be a little nervous.
Qin Xiaoxi seemed to know that Jiang Yun was a young and promising figure that everyone in Thunder City knew. Her gaze was a little strange.
“Isn’t Jiang Yun too young, Sister?” Qin Xiaoxi whispered to her sister, Qin Mingzhu.
“Many people don’t believe it, but it’s true,” Qin Mingzhu replied.
“Is he really qualified? I used to remember that the Deity Sect was full of white-bearded old men.” Xiaoxi lowered her voice again.
“Don’t talk nonsense! Xiaoxi! Father is still here!” Qin Mingzhu immediately stopped her sister when she heard this.
Jiang Yun pondered.
It was no wonder that no one had ever seen Qin Xiaoxi, the second daughter of the Qin family. If she was also a cultivator, then all of this made sense.
However, she was so young, yet she had such powerful spiritual power hidden in her body. She must be talented and was with outstanding physical fitness.
She must have had a lot of experience killing monsters outside. Jiang Yun picked up a piece of preserved chicken, put it into his mouth, and slowly chewed it.
“Everyone, I, Qin Haisheng, have another precious dish for you to taste today.”
Halfway through the meal, Qin Haisheng hurriedly stood up and said to everyone.
This also aroused everyone’s curiosity.
Qin Haisheng hurriedly called for the servants and placed the last dish in the middle of each table.
This dish was placed on a slightly larger white plate, and there was even a mysterious lid on it. Everyone couldn’t wait any longer. This was the first time many of them had eaten a dish with a lid on it.
“What is this???”
The crowd couldn’t help but start discussing.
After waiting for a few seconds, the servant lifted the lid that was originally fastened on the plate. Suddenly, a faint golden light appeared in front of everyone’s eyes. Following that, a fragrant smell a.s.sailed their nostrils. It was truly intoxicating. This dish was extremely unique even when placed on a plate. The meat on the plate looked like chicken. Under the contrast of other ingredients, it looked like a golden phoenix that was about to soar into the sky!
This was… Phoenix Arrival?
Many people did not know about this dish, but those who knew could not help but cry out in surprise.
The ingredients that Phoenix Arrival had chosen were all extremely precious. Using the wild thousand feather chicken from the northern region as the main ingredient, it was supplemented with fluorescent shrimp, North Sea lobster, fish maw, Ganoderma from the high mountain, East Sea giant turtle meat, and other extremely precious ingredients to brew a thick soup. After pouring in the thick sup, it was finally stewed for two hours, the Phoenix Arrival could then be perfectly made.
This so-called thousand feather chicken from Northern Region was extremely rare. Furthermore, it was said that in order to make it having a shining golden appearance, one had to kill the thousand feather chicken after it had grown to a certain point before it was slaughtered and cooked. Many of the large restaurants did not use the authentic ingredients when preparing it, and this meal could cover the cost of a normal family’s meal for a few months.
