Ch-18 The family pressure-3

*A Few Moments ago...

" Father..." Ji Mai shook her head with a blanched face as she couldn't convey the words that were inside her heart.

By No means, Holy Envoy is interested in me, judging from his facial behaviour, he was clearly speaking a few words with her, in order to provoke Mo Feng, and it worked...

Every time, the Holy Envoy glanced at her and spoke with her, Mo Feng would get angry and talk badly at Li Bai, such as calling him Devil, or Demon.

As a woman with big breasts cough* cough*... As a woman with a big brain, she already knew Mo Feng and Holy Envoy had some conflict.

That's why Holy Envoy humiliated Mo Feng in front of everyone and even killed him... She wasn't sure, Mo Feng had died and wished for his return.

But, his return won't change anything.

" Ji Mai..." The Sect Master said looking at the pale face of her daughter who seemed to be in deep thought. From what he had seen, the Holy Envoy would constantly glance at her and talk with her, he seemed clearly interested in his daughter.

And it was a great opportunity for Ji Mai, to stay beside Li Bai.

" Sighhhh...." The Sect Master took a Deep breath, he wasn't a blunt man either, he could already see and figure out, what his daughter was thinking.

It seems she wasn't interested in Holy Envoy at all.

"Ji Mai, Some Opportunity comes once in a blue moon while, Some Opportunity comes only once in a lifetime, at the end of the day, it's your choice. If you have no interest in Holy Envoy then there is nothing we can say " The Sect Master blunted out his opinion.

Hearing her father's Sigh, Ji Mai was disconcerted as well, she knew what type of man he was. He was willing to hand her over because he wanted the betterment of everyone.

Also... There is ' That '

Holy Envoy gave a wonderful opportunity to everyone here, he has a good background in the upper realm, and he is also a Talented individual with unparalleled strength.

Gritting her teeth, she had decided to put her pride down and accompany the Holy Envoy throughout the night.

After all, everything that happened today was because of her, Mo Feng Faught Aganist Holy Envoy because of her.

...

Those Honourable Guests, who had no idea about that Mysterious young man, who was sitting beside Sect Master were Confused.

They widen their eyes as they comprehend the sect master's words while many questions arise in their mind.

The main question was " Who is that young man, that even the sect master would make his beloved daughter his escort... " 

But it wasn't that surprising considering the fact that young man, managed to get Enlightenment and gave them all an opportunity to increase their cultivation.

But, They were still unable to get hold of his identity.

The atmosphere in the Grand Palace grew increasingly tense, as the guests speculated about the mysterious young man who had recently entered their lives.

Whispers and humming conversations filled the air as they tried to piece together the puzzle.

Some speculated that the young man might be a hidden genius, while others assumed he had powerful connections in the upper realm.

Regardless of their theories, they couldn't deny the significant benefits he had brought to the sect and them.

A few even began to think of ways to get closer to him, hoping to ride his coattails to greater power.

Alas, Most of them didn't have a Daughter like the Sect Master, and even tho, few of them had daughters, they were already married.

....

As the night progressed...

Ji Mai steeled herself to fulfil her father's request. She had decided to accompany Li Bai, the Holy Envoy, and put her personal feelings aside.

It was a decision born out of responsibility and gratitude for the opportunities Li Bai had presented to the sect.

" This Man, Li Bai is very suitable for you, he is way better than Mo Feng " She heard a Voice in her head, the voice was feminine and gentle.

Hearing this she stopped, she was right in front of Li Bai's residence which used to be her's.

The Voice Continued " Li Bai is incalculable, he is powerful and judging from his attire and manners, his ability to deal with bugs, he seems to be a  powerful individual from Dragon Clan with a Noble background  "

Ji Mai was No stranger to this voice, " But, Master..." She said.

It seems the Voice belongs to her Master.

When she was six years old, during a Fateful encounter she found a strange-looking ring, seeing how beautiful it was, she decided to keep it.

Later she learnt, that there was a soul inside the ring, and that Soul became her master over time.

Teaching her Cultivation, Arts and stuff...

" Master! Didn't you say you were also from the upper realm, so, How strong is Li Bai? " Ji Mai couldn't help but ask.

" Hmm!....his Cultivation is so hidden that, even I can't see it, Just a day ago, I thought he was crippled. but, it seems he is a Hidden Dragon that can even fool my eyes " The Voice replied.

" But, he is highly powerful, since, he is also from the Dragon clan, his identity isn't simple. Dragon Clan are the strongest in an upper realm with millions of years of history, they have powerful arts be it martial art, spiritual art, magic art or Dragon arts.  " Her Master continued.

" Ji Mai, listen closely... His future is destined to be great, he even managed to gain enlightenment which is rare even in the upper realm, just being one of his maids is already the greatest honour.

He is destined to rule nine realms and nine heavens, you won't be left alone, you should think of your future, just like your father said, tonight is your opportunity, if you miss it, it won't come back again "
