32: Chapter 32 Moon Reflecting on the Milky Way
Immortal Master Hongyue led Fairy Jiumiao along the secluded corridor on the side of the jade ship to a tastefully decorated private room.
After Immortal Master Hongyue left, Fairy Jiumiao sat on a pearwood chair, unconsciously gripping the fabric of her skirt hem, her fingertips pressing slightly, clearly indicating her mind was not at peace.
"I wonder what kind of person this True Disciple Chu really is, to be so highly valued by Duobao Pavilion and even attract so many high-level Cultivators to offer their congratulations..." Her heart was filled with anticipation and curiosity.
Before coming, the Master of Xiaoyao Tower had specifically summoned her alone.
Fairy Jiumiao could not help but recall the earnest words of the Master of Xiaoyao Tower at that time.
"Do you know? Ji Yue was merely taken as a concubine by the Chusheng Sect Master. Although the Chusheng Sect can run rampant in Nanshan Prefecture, in Nanyun Continent, it is just an inconspicuous little Sect."
"Our Xiaoyao Tower has a decent reputation in Nanyun Continent, but if placed in the Southern Continent, it is like the light of a firefly."
"And the True Disciple of Duobao Pavilion will be able to go to the Duobao Sect in the Central Continent in the future."
"So you must understand how rare it is to be able to meet True Disciple Chu this time, and even more so to have the Opportunity to spend time with him alone."
"This is not just your Opportunity; it is also the Opportunity for our Xiaoyao Tower!"
Thinking of this, Fairy Jiumiao's breathing quickened, and her eyes became more determined.
"Even if it is only for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, even if it is such a short time, I must perform well!"
Time passed slowly in the tense wait. Suddenly, the voice of Immortal Master Hongyue came from outside the private room: "Jiumiao, prepare yourself; you can go on stage immediately."
Dozens of breaths later, the side door of the private room opened suddenly. Immediately, streaks of soft rosy light, accompanied by the sound of waves from the lake outside the ship, surged out, illuminating the entire corridor to the stage like a dream.
Fairy Jiumiao's graceful figure stepped on the shimmering water ripples, gradually appearing in the rosy light.
She wore light makeup, her fair and slender legs turned gently, and the colorful ribbons hanging from her waist fluttered with the wind, like an elf under the moon descending into the mortal world.
She had practiced this Moon Wandering Milky Way thousands of times; it was already engraved in her bones.
Every time she danced, she would completely immerse herself, merging herself with the dance.
And this time, because of the strong obsession and desire for Opportunity in her heart, her dance was more natural and agile than ever before, as if she had truly become a Fairy under the moon, completely fused with the moonlight and water ripples, beautiful enough to intoxicate anyone.
"Good! This is the true Moon Wandering Milky Way! It is indeed worthy of its reputation!"
"Such an agile and elegant dance is truly rare! Coming here today was worth it!"
Exclamations of admiration rose one after another from the guests; many Cultivators put down their wine glasses and focused on admiring this stunning dance.
Chu Feng looked at the figure on the round stage, who looked like a celestial Fairy from beyond the heavens, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The most crucial point was that he actually knew this woman; they had met once before.
The Moon Wandering Milky Way finished, and Fairy Jiumiao bowed gently, slowly exiting the stage amidst the applause of the crowd.
The atmosphere of the banquet inside the jade ship became even more enthusiastic because of this dance.
Many Cultivators took advantage of this lively atmosphere to take the initiative to step forward and talk to Chu Feng to get acquainted, including the Golden Core Immortal Master of the Hehuan Sect and the Golden Core Immortal Master of the Tiandan Sect.
The two Immortal Masters walked together to the table of Chu Feng.
"True Disciple Chu, congratulations on your Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment."
"This is the title deed for the small courtyard at No. 56, East Street of the First Ring of Red Moon City, which is a Foundation Establishment congratulatory gift prepared by our Hehuan Sect and Tiandan Sect together. We hope True Disciple Chu will accept it."
Chu Feng raised his hand to take the wooden plaque and smiled in thanks: "Thank you both Immortal Masters for the generous gift; Chu Feng will not stand on ceremony."
The sun slowly set, and the evening glow dyed half the sky red. This grand Foundation Establishment banquet finally drew to a close after Fairy Jiumiao danced the Moon Wandering Milky Way for the second time.
Many Cultivators stood up one after another, and after congratulating Chu Feng again, they turned into rays of light and left the ship one by one.
The jade tables, which were originally filled with fine wine and delicacies, gradually became empty.
Several Late Stage Foundation Establishment Guest Elders of Duobao Pavilion were not in a hurry to leave and stepped forward one after another to greet and talk to Chu Feng.
Some were to express their congratulations, and some were to take the Opportunity to build connections, after which they each took their leave.
Finally, the mature woman, Master Luoli, walked over.
Chu Feng cupped his hands and smiled: "There were many things to attend to at the banquet today. If there was any poor hospitality, I hope Master Luoli will forgive me. This cup of wine will serve as Chu Feng's apology."
Master Luoli smiled: "If you really want to drink, remember to come to Luoli City."
Hearing this, Chu Feng agreed without hesitation: "Of course."
"Good! Then it is settled; I will notify you of the specific time." After speaking, Master Luoli flew away.
Watching Master Luoli's figure disappear into the sky, Chu Feng finally let out a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of relief.
The fatigue of the banquet and the tension of socializing with various Cultivators at the banquet all dissipated at this moment.
Cheng Sanniang and the others also completely relaxed. Their legs were weak, and they leaned over exhaustedly, gently holding Chu Feng's arm and gasping for air.
Their faces were full of fatigue, but they also carried a hint of relaxation after completing a major task.
Being able to persist until the end of the banquet under the pressure of a hall full of high-level Cultivators was not easy for them.
Chu Feng returned to the jade ship with his Dao Companions. After walking just a few steps, Immortal Master Hongyue walked over to meet him and said: "True Disciple Chu, Fairy Jiumiao wants to see you. It will only take the time of a cup of tea. I wonder if you are willing to see her?"
Chu Feng was slightly stunned. The graceful figure of Fairy Jiumiao dancing just now subconsciously appeared in his mind.
But on second thought, that figure gradually blurred, turning into her appearance when they first met on the North Street of the Second Ring of Red Moon City.
He withdrew his thoughts, smiled faintly, and said: "Pavilion Master, no need."
Inside the private room. The carved wooden window was half-closed, letting in a sliver of dim daylight, casting a few scattered shadows on the blue brick floor.
A faint fragrance floated in the air; it was the Concentration Incense that Fairy Jiumiao had specially prepared.
Fairy Jiumiao's figure was slender, and she stood quietly in the center of the room, her long dress with water sleeves trailing on the floor.
She did not sit down, just waiting like this, a proper faint smile always hanging on the corners of her mouth, gentle and agile, neither appearing anxious nor making people feel distant.
For this meeting, she had practiced in her mind countless times.
In the previous two dances under the moon, she had used all her strength. Her dance was not only extremely beautiful, but also attracted wisps of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to surround her body; her state could be called perfect.
She believed that the invited True Disciple would definitely be satisfied with her.
As long as she could be alone with that True Disciple and be a little more proactive, she would definitely be able to get to know him and even win his favor.
Decades of preparation were waiting for this Opportunity today to cling to a strong person and step towards a higher level of cultivation.
