C7 – A Thousand Times Yes
At Pool Feather Mountain Manor.
Inside the main hall.
Gu Feidao, the master of Pool Feather Mountain Manor, sat at the top with both hands on the armrest of his seat. The man looked in his sixties, his face covered with wrinkles, and he was wearing a dark green robe and a silk cloak. While his sideburns were white, the rest of his hair was still ebony and his eyes were deep and bright, which added to his majestic authority.
He had his daughter at an old age, so he looked more like Gu Siyin’s grandfather rather than her father.
Below the master sat three people, all dressed in an ivory long robe with faint blue dark patterns on it, which sparkled as light shone on them.
The robe was the symbol of identity of a disciple from Water Moon Dock.
The handsome young man sitting in the first seat was holding a folding fan sprinkled with gold powder. He acted just like a noble young master from an aristocratic family, only his expression was exceptionally cold, and his eyes were filled with arrogance, which made him seem a bit mean. He was Yue Longzhang, a disciple at the Foundation Establishment Stage from Water Moon Dock.
Next to him sat a younger teenager named Ma Shu, with big round eyes and a likable face. He was a bit shy and would often blush whenever others looked at him. He was only at the Qi Cultivation Stage.
The third person looked quite mysterious, wearing a large hat with a white veil covering the face, so people couldn’t see the person’s face clearly. They could hardly tell if the person was a man or a woman.
In fact, the people in the manor were quite puzzled. Earlier according to Water Moon Dock, only two disciples were sent, but now, there was one more disciple here… Curious as they were, they wouldn’t dare to ask.
Gu Siyin, who had spent almost half the night last night crying in Liu Yuan’s arms, sat on the armchair on the right side of Gu Feidao. She lowered her head and took a sip of tea. From her bulging cheeks, one could tell that she was very dissatisfied and unhappy.
She was petite, so when she sat on the large chair, her two feet in fluffy embroidered shoes couldn’t even reach the ground. Almost her entire body was covered by the large skirt, making her look even more exquisite and cute.
The hall was in silence. Only the slight sound of the maids placing the teacups could be heard.
Actually, this whole thing was a bit absurd, because they were here to discuss the marriage between Xue Zhui and Gu Siyin, but Xue Zhui was not qualified to enter the hall and had to wait outside.
Gu Feidao and the leading disciple Yue Longzhang had been chatting for a while.
The marriage was almost settled.
Gu Feidao said, “I’m glad that today we’ve settled the official date of the wedding. My sincere apologies for our negligence in etiquette the other day. Here, let’s raise our cups and bury the hatchet.”
Even though the guests were cultivators, Gu Feidao’s expression did not change much as he raised the teacup and drank the tea all in one gulp.
“Pah.”
Yue Longzhang closed the fan, picked up the teacup as well and smiled. “Don’t mention it. Master Gu is too polite. Your Pool Feather Mountain Manor is well-known in the country and even among us immortal cultivators as well. Besides, we are only juniors, so how can we hold a grudge? “
The young man didn’t sound respectful with his sarcastic tone, which made everyone in the manor frown disapprovingly.
However, Gu Feidao didn’t even raise his eyebrow; instead, he just said, “That’s very thoughtful of you to say so.”
Yue Longzhang lightly sipped his tea. He looked at the tea leaves in the cup and could sense the angry gazes around him. However, Gu Feidao appeared very calm and composed. Yue Longzhang secretly sneered in his heart.
It seemed that this so-called magnate was just a mortal after all. There was nothing special about him.
