Chapter 1186: Back And Forth



Chapter 1186: Back And Forth

Everyone could hear the implication - that they were superior since Fairy Luo was over there.

“Looks like I should invite Fairy Luo over here then.” Ximen Chuixiao frowned and stood up.

As if you can invite her - Xuan Huasheng wanted to say.

However, a white carriage pulled by seven divine cranes came from a distance. The driver was a beautiful servant, commanding them to land next to Crystal Island.

Jiutian Yanyu then descended, showing everyone why she had the title of “fairy”. Each action oozed elegance and allure while still maintaining an unpretentious air.

Her skin was as white as her dress. She walked over and smiled: “Crown Prince, do you wish to invite my rival?”

Chuixiao was always polite to the ladies. He lowered his head and cupped his fist as he said: “No, this place has enough grace due to your arrival, there is no need to invite anyone else.”

He sat back down afterward.

Crown Prince? Xuan Huasheng heard this and took another look at Chuixiao. He suddenly remembered someone and became startled - could it be him?

If that’s the case, any of the four fairies would give him face since his "face" was that big!

Huasheng immediately left in dejection, no longer acting arrogantly like before.

Feiyun started speculating as well and quickly came up with a surprising answer - His status is so different from his demeanor, how disproportional...

Yanyu had a painting wrapped in bronze, treating it as a precious treasure. Her voice was as pleasant as a nightingale's: “My tardiness was due to thinking about a suitable gift, please forgive my rudeness. I will punish myself with three cups.”

Three cups of wine automatically flew to her along with a bronze jar. The sweet nectar flowed out and filled all three.

Chuixiao elbowed Feiyun twice and saw no reaction. Thus, he decided to smack his bottom.

Being groped made him stand up and glare at Chuixiao. This was his first time being “ambushed” by a man.

Everyone saw his sudden movement and looked over.

Yuyan was ready to drink; her red lips inches from the jade cup. Thus, she was confused to see him standing up.

Chuixiao ignored their confusion and clapped loudly: “Brother Feng, you are a true gentleman, we need to learn from you.”

Everyone understood after hearing this.

Feiyun took a deep breath and couldn’t tell them the truth. Thus, he went over to the fairy and said: “I received your grace in the form of a spirit treasure back then during a moment of crisis. Today, I will drink the punishment as repayment.”

He finished all three cups and sat back down.

“That’s your repayment, three cups of wine? Even if the fairy were to be kind enough to accept this, we won’t.” Chuixiao coughed.

“Yes, there’s no free lunch in this world, Brother Feng, this is rather unmanly of you. At the very least, you should give the fairy a melon.” Zhongyuan laughed and said.

He pulled out a jade-like melon and handed it to Feiyun: “Brother, its name is Iceheart Fox Melon, it has grown for one hundred and eight cycles, aligning with the number of the destiny constellations. I was going to give it to a fairy as my gift but since we get along so well despite it being our first meeting, you can have it.”

Zhongyuan had a large face and small eyes. Now, he even squinted while staring at him.

Feiyun naturally understood them and said: “I will accept your kind gesture, Brother Zhongyuan. Today, I will present the fairy with borrowed flowers. Please accept this melon with an age of over twelve million years.”

He presented the jade-like melon to Jiutian Yanyu.

She had received many gifts but never something so old. This might be more valuable than all her other gifts combined. Primogenitor grottos might not have access to this old alchemy ingredient.

She naturally accepted the gift and raised the painting in her hand with a slightly bashful expression: “I painted this for you.”

Feiyun didn’t expect this in the slightest since they had only met once. They had no deep connection and the melon was those two’s playful antics. However, the significance of this painting seemed different.

“I heard of your painting skills long ago, Fairy Jiutian, today is a lucky day.” Liu Suzi grabbed the painting and laid it out on the table.

It stretched for two meters long, depicting a handsome man with a pair of red eyes. He held a spear valiantly, ready for battle.

The painting was vivid with smooth lines as if the depicted figure was alive on the paper.

Liu Suzi glanced at the painting before snorting at Feiyun, returning to her seat afterward.

Scholar Heaven Calculating, Zhongyuan, and Ximen Chuixiao showed strange expressions. They then praised the exquisite techniques employed while avoiding the person depicted. Afterward, they smirked at him as if to say - she clearly likes you.

Feiyun stared at her, causing her eyes to have a hint of shyness. She said: “It’s just an unworthy painting, please don’t laugh at my skill, Brother Feng.”

“It is a superior work of art, albeit with some flaws.” Xuanyuan Yiyi suddenly spoke.

Everyone was surprised by her untimely remark. If it came from someone else, it might have led to a beating for interrupting someone’s flirting attempt.

This wasn’t the time to critique the painting!

However, no one said anything because it was Aquamoon Saintess.

“It is a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency. Could you please elaborate?” Yanyu bowed her head.

She stared at the beautiful saintess and was confused. The woman should be an enlightened cultivator, excellent in both the dao and mental state. Why would she make this improper remark?

Right, a mountain can’t have two tigers, two talented beauties were naturally competitive when nearby.

Yanyu thought that she had invoked animosity for stealing the saintess’ spotlight. It looks like she isn’t as impressive as rumored. I must keep a low profile to not offend Aquamoon Paradise.

She was experienced in reading people. Alas, the actual reason eluded her.

Xuanyuan Yiyi naturally couldn’t notice that she was acting differently. The others understood something and closed their eyes, not wanting to be involved in this battle between a saintess and a fairy. Mortals should know to stay away.

Feiyun did the same, closing his eyes while imagining why the kind-hearted Xuanyuan Yiyi was being aggressive.

Looks like not only are astronomical signs changing, but even the hearts of women are becoming harder to read.

Xuanyuan Yiyi pointed at the painting and said: “Fairy Jiutian, you are undoubtedly a peerless painter with few rivals. However, only the form is exceptional, the spirit wasn’t fully captured. You painted for the sake of painting, making it artificial and lacking spirituality.”

Yanyu wanted to back down initially but after hearing the criticism, she said: “I didn’t expect Your Excellency to have such a profound understanding of art. Will you please showcase your talent and paint a masterpiece for us to admire and learn from?”

“I am by no means proficient at painting and calligraphy, I just happen to understand Brother Feng quite well. The one depicted here is merely a skeleton, devoid of his true temperament and personality.” Yiyi said.

Feiyun thought that she had gone a bit too far today with being competitive. This wasn’t her usual behavior.

It seems like Jingyue was right. There is no way for me to enforce the rule of equality, women are just competitive with each other. There must be a pyramid.

He didn’t want this to continue so he coughed and said: “I only had the pleasure of meeting Fairy Jiutian once so she only saw one side of me. I am already amazed that she could capture my appearance years later.”

Yanyu was happy to hear him standing up for her. She stopped being afraid of offending Aquamoon Saintess and said: “Considering the size of this vast world, destiny must have brought us together for that encounter.”
