1606 Wuxing 1
When they first arrived at the Saint Divine Land, Zhao Dier had tried to give the Phoenix Girl a warning, and Elder Qianji said nothing, because he wanted to see if Piaomiao Pavilion would be able to override the Phoenix Girl.
No one from the Saint Divine Land cultivated so if people from Piaomiao Pavilion could threaten them, then they would be able to get hold of the Golden Rolls very easily. They would even make the short-sighted Phoenix Girl work for them instead. That had been their “good plan” from the start.
He thought that Zhao Dier would think as thoroughly as he did, and that she would know how to take control of the situation, but upon hearing her tone, he believed that she did not even know what they should do and what they should not do. She even thought that they were totally invincible.
Elder Qianji did not like it.
He hoped that Zhao Dier was not going to ruin the whole plan.
!!
They should not give the Phoenix Girl any more problems. They had to flatter her, because the Cangyan Door was already here, and people from the Snow Territory would be here soon. If Piaomiao Pavilion continued to behave like this, the Phoenix Girl would dislike them directly and Piaomiao Pavilion would have no chance to befriend her, then she might turn to the Cangyan Door and the Snow Territory instead.
“Lady Dier, recall what you have just said, and no longer say such things. You need to treat the Phoenix Girl politely. That will only do good for us!” Elder Qianji reminded her seriously. “You don’t want the Cangyan Door to take advantage of this situation, do you?”
Zhao Dier said nothing else.
Of course she understood what the situation looked like.
She snapped because she felt humiliated when the Phoenix Girl offered the antidote in exchange for things from Piaomiao Pavilion.
She might have burst out in saying such things, but she would not truly dare do so. Otherwise her father would blame her.
She had to accept the lesson Elder Qianji taught her.
Seeing that she was not arguing, Elder Qianji felt less worried.
He was worried that this Elder Miss would ruin his plan.
“Elder, Guardian Wuxing is here.” A guard reminded him in a small whisper.
Wuxing?
Zhao Dier’s distress was gone. She looked very happy. “Senior Brother is here!” she exclaimed and rushed out, wanting to meet him.
However, Zhao Dier suddenly thought of something when she reached the door.
Her expression sank and she retreated backwards, hesitantly saying. “Elder Qianji, you can go and greet him. I am too tired to receive him at the door. I need to have a nap.”
Having said that, she returned to her own palace.
Elder Qianji saw how she behaved… and understood what she was thinking. He had lived for more than 100 years, after all, so he was not worried about her at all.
He went to greet Wuxing personally.
Wuxing was from Piaomiao Pavilion, but it was the first time for him to visit the court, so he needed to go through a complicated process, so Elder Qianji went to bring him in directly.
Wuxing looked beyond him, feeling dissatisfied and frowning. “Where is Elder Miss, isn’t she in?”
The Elder Miss had always been pa.s.sionate towards him, so how she reacted to him today seemed weird.
