Chapter 119 Top Card
At the dinner table, glasses clinked and guests enjoyed themselves immensely.
Young Master Yan, after all, had money and a group of drinking enthusiasts.
A group of teenagers were making flirtatious and risqué remarks, and the atmosphere never cooled down.
Especially these rich young masters, upon seeing Xiang Shuying, couldn't take their eyes off her and showered her with praise.
"The Fragrance Saintess is truly a celestial being. To have the opportunity to glimpse her is a blessing beyond measure."
"The Fragrance Saintess is so young, yet she already possesses the cultivation of a half-step Supreme. Her talent is truly extraordinary and rare throughout the ages!"
"The Fragrance Saintess has acted on behalf of Heaven to slay demons and eliminate evil. She truly deserves to be called a righteous sect, and her integrity is impeccable!"
The young men from all walks of life flattered her relentlessly, praising Xiang Shuying to the heavens.
The Holy Maiden of Xuanqing Sect smiled gently, seemingly humble, yet welcoming all who came.
She also uses a pitiful and weak demeanor to get men to flatter her even more.
Xiang Shuying is finally relieved. During the previous few days in Daqian, she was dealing with either little kids or her father-in-law who didn't have a penis.
She gave all her charm to the blind man.
Now, finally, there are a few decent young men who can help me regain my energy.
Compared to these experts in love, Su Yun seemed out of place.
He sat to the side, eating by himself.
Just kidding, the Azure Ice Marrow Drink is made with deep-sea marrow crystals, Arctic Blue Flowers, and Ice Shark Tears.
You can't buy such good things unless you go to the best restaurant in Qiandu.
While expensive wines are valued for their brand, rare spiritual drinks in the fantasy world can genuinely enhance one's cultivation.
So Su Yun ignored them and continued playing by himself.
As these young noblemen chatted, they eventually steered the conversation toward their sugar daddies.
“Saintess Xiang,” one of them spoke up, “Young Master Cheng Yan knows this place best. Aren’t you looking for some auspicious burial site? Let him ask around for you.”
The others chimed in, "That's right, that's right. Young Master Yan has a wide network of connections, just ask him."
Seeing that Xiang Shuying was also looking at him, Young Master Yan smiled and said modestly, "I am just the descendant of an ordinary merchant, I don't have any connections."
"When it comes to connections, who can compare to the young master of the Su family in the future?"
"Right, Xiaoyun'er?"
Upon hearing this, the others immediately smiled knowingly.
This young master Yan seemed humble, yet he was praising his own cousin.
In reality, just like Xiang Shuying, she used someone completely incomparable to highlight her own greatness.
It's like a top student deliberately saying they didn't do well on a test and are about to be demoted to a lower-ranked class.
Su Yun rolled her eyes and didn't intend to pay him any attention.
Just then, a playful voice exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master Su?"
Everyone turned around and saw a lovely woman.
She wore an ice-blue short coat, her skin was as white as snow, her eyes were as bright as stars, and her smile was as sweet as a newly blossoming flower.
Upon seeing this, everyone immediately exclaimed with delight, "See? What did we say? Someone recognized Brother Cheng Yan right away!"
Young Master Yan was overjoyed: "You are... Miss Zhiyun!"
"You still remember me!"
She's one of the top courtesans at Chunmanlou, and a seat is always in high demand.
These kinds of celebrities can now be chosen freely.
Without status, talent, or refinement, money can't win a smile.
Young Master Yan had met her twice before, and he was overjoyed that she remembered him.
He straightened his chest, raised his hand, and stepped forward: "Miss Zhiyun..."
Zhiyun brushed past him: "Young Master Su, you've arrived!"
"Why didn't you give the order so the girls could come and serve you!"
After saying that, he kept waving his hand: "Girls, look who's here!"
The girls who were nearby immediately surrounded him, marveling, "Young Master Su, it's you!"
"Why didn't you say hello when you came? We didn't see you."
"Hehe, you'll see when Young Master Su grows up."
"Tch, don't talk dirty to the young master!"
Young Master Yan's expression stiffened, and he smoothly reached into his pocket: "How much are these green beans?"
The waiter, carrying a tray, looked puzzled. "This is tamarind, for the young lady."
Young Master Yan coughed awkwardly: "This is what I want to eat today, bring me a plate."
A group of wealthy young men looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Zhiyun, Miaoling, and Ruixuan are all very popular celebrities, and tickets for them are extremely hard to come by!
Few people get to meet them; most of the time, they just talk about poetry and literature, nothing more!
How could that little kid deserve to be surrounded by beautiful women?
Unlike myself, he is not able to appreciate beauty.
What does a three-year-old know?
The girls gathered around, but seeing there were other guests, they didn't want to disturb them.
He touched Su Yun's hand a couple more times before reluctantly leaving.
The lively atmosphere was interrupted, and the atmosphere at the table suddenly became a bit strange.
Xiang Shuying stared quietly at Su Yun, her eyes flickering.
He really surprised himself; he could attract attention anywhere.
"As expected of the young master of the Su family." Xiang Shuying smiled and opened her lips.
The expressions on the faces of the people at the table immediately turned strange.
Young Master Yan is the eldest son of the Su family's main branch. In an ordinary family, he would be the one in charge of the family.
However, the title of Marquis of Zhenyuan not only fell to the second branch of the family, but the recognized heir also became an outsider.
Other ordinary people might not understand, but this group of people always hangs out together and knows everything perfectly well.
Young Master Yan is eager to reclaim his title.
When he mentioned Su Yun as the heir of the Su family, it was a mockery; but if someone else mentioned it, it would be considered sarcasm.
Seeing that Young Master Yan's face was getting increasingly grim, the others whispered, "Don't argue with a child."
"He won't be the heir of the Su family anymore soon, so forget it."
Young Master Yan coughed twice and nodded.
Su Yun is about to be sent back to the small town in the countryside, after which she will need to focus more on vying for power with the second wife.
He smiled again: "Um, Saintess Xiang, is there anything else you'd like to eat?"
Xiang Shuying knew she couldn't win over Su Yun for the time being, and exclaimed, "Thank you, Young Master Yan."
"To see so many beautiful women in this bustling place."
"Being able to learn how to coordinate outfits and change makeup is already a blessing!"
Young Master Yan's eyes lit up immediately: "That's right, the Holy Maiden Xiang has come all this way, how can she not bring back some good things?"
"This is a luminous pearl produced by a divine clam from the South China Sea. Wearing it has a miraculous effect of purifying the body. Please accept it, Holy Maiden of Fragrance."
The crowd exclaimed in surprise, "This luminous pearl is difficult to harvest and is guarded by a dragon; it must be priceless!"
"It's not just priceless, it's practically priceless!"
"Young Master Yan is truly generous."
"The Fragrant Saintess and this pearl are a perfect match."
Amidst the praise of the crowd, Young Master Yan revealed a smug expression.
Xiang Shuying was very surprised and declined several times, but she could not refuse and reluctantly accepted it: "Then thank you very much, Young Master Yan."
Young Master Yan continued to smile smugly, waiting for the next sentence.
But Xiang Shuying just smiled and played with the beads, without looking at him again.
Young Master Yan's lips twitched; he didn't feel particularly good.
If a million-dollar luminous pearl is given as a gift, the woman should reciprocate in some way.
This kind of thing shouldn't need reminding, right?
But Xiang Shuying just sat there by herself, showing no intention of doing anything further.
Ta-ta-ta-ta.
At that moment, a stunningly beautiful woman, draped in a light veil and with a rosy complexion, came to greet them.
She greeted him softly, "Young Master Su, do you remember me?"
Su Yun asked in a daze, "Your name seems to be... Wanlu?"
Young Master Yan felt uneasy; this was yet another top courtesan!
Wanlu was delighted: "Thank you for remembering, young master!"
"To repay the young master, my sisters and I... raised some money."
"I have prepared a magical artifact for the young master."
