Immortal Among Mortals: The Rebirth Jade Lake Fairy

XXI

Guests were arriving with luxurious carriages, Madam Yun was personally receiving them and greetings of joy.
It was impossible to hide the joy in her face. The banquet was held in the largest hall of thé feng domain.
Tables were well garnished with all types of dishes, numerous chatters on the male guests side and the female guests side.
Feng Shi Yan was sitting and surrounded by numerous girls who either wanted to curry favour with her to get some benefits or for connections, despite knowing that, she had a fresh smile like a gentle breeze in the afternoon.
- Miss Yan you are very beautiful.
- No one can compare with you in terms of beauty.
Due to all of these praises, Feng Shi Yan became red as a beetroot.
She looked round into the hall to see if the Jade lake princess and Feng Yu are around.

‘ Is that wretched princess dead ! ’
She saw Nangong Liuyun and his group , she gave them a smile.
Suddenly clamours started as everyone was looking in a direction, Feng Shi Yan looked too and almost fainted. She saw two gorgeous beings: A nymph and a fairy.
Feng Yu was like a nymph ,she walked gracefully, a poised demeanor. She was no more the ugly duckling but a beautiful swan,her feather like robe with a touch of nymph fantasy dress. Her long,silky, violet with a shade of lilac colour hairs were decorated in such an original way only Yu mi could do that but Hay Lin was more than stunning especially with the composed gaze as cherry blossoms embroidered on the rim of her skirt and her cuffs.
Hay Lin: Happy birthday and many more years to you, Second Miss.

It snapped out Feng Shi Yan out of her dreaming.
Feng Shi Yan:Thank you for honouring me , Princess Yao.
Hay Lin: That's natural,after all Feng Yu is my friend and I was curious about the Feng domain.

Madam Yun was shocked ! How possible with all those assassins they were an elite team!.
How come she's here!
Hay Lin: Oh ! Sorry Madam Yun maybe my coming was too shocking, Since Yu'er was invited I decided to accompany her or there's no place for me ?
Madam Yun; No no this is normal for Feng Yu to invite a friend to her sister's birthday.
Madam Yun was shocked looking at Feng Yu who outshone her Shi Yan.
‘ Si Ya,why do you keep following me !’
She hated that woman to the bones. Feng Yu's beauty was altered by her doings.
Madam Yun smiled and came to Feng Yu.
Madam Yun: Feng Yu my little daughter.
Feng Yu bit her lip before making a salutation,by cupping her fists.
Feng Yu: Good morning mother Feng Yu has come to celebrate big sister's birthday.
Madam Yun: Oh good girl come and sit with your sister.

How could Hay Lin not understand what, Madam Yun had on mind.
Feng Yu: But , I am a maid.
Madam Yun: I am sure that the princess would not like you standing up.
Hay Lin: Ouf.... Feng Yu come and sit beside me. Thanks for receiving us Madam Yun, I just wait to this banquet.

They slipped away as a snake and sat down. Hay Lin fanned herself as her gaze discretely darted in the luxuriant hall. She was actually scanning the surroundings. She went to the male guests side and she did see Nangong Liuyun, Beichen Ying, Lan Xuan and Anye Ming were present.

They were 58 hidden guards and 128 guards with high ranking.
She turned her gaze as she smelt the same odour of Feng Yu from the direction of the door.
Shortly Feng Jin Yan came followed by Two old men in black brocade then two other young masters arrived, Feng Luo and Feng Li.
Feng Luo in passing threw a glance to Feng Yu who no more looked at him. She no more had that helpless gaze but a neutral and cool gaze.
He felt the green gaze of Hay Lin,it was as if she could see through him,he felt unease and she was mysterious.
He moved further with his long , silky, lavender hair. His blue eyes had complicated emotions.

Feng Jin Yan did something that astonished people. He sat two chairs lower than the principal seat. The two elders in brocade were those sited on the next sear at each side of the principal seat. Feng Luo and Feng Li sat beside their father.
People were unaware of who was coming so that the head would lower himself,what about those two elders with powerful auras. Their identity was surely not simple.

Nangong Liuyun glanced with his devilish smile and said nothing. Hay Lin had an internal sneer.
‘ I need to change some details ’
Suddenly Ping An's voice sounded, although calm he was highly angered.
Ping An: I never thought I will never ever see again people that devour people spirit force to improve their cultivation.
Hay Lin: Huh ? How do they do ?
Ping An: Don't tell me you want to walk that path too ? I will ask you to forget it !
Hay Lin: No don't worry .
Ping An: They drink live peoples blood till dryness.
Hay Lin gasped internally at this piece of information.
Ping An: The one on the right devours souls. Beware of him since you are powerful ,you should advise your friends.
Benimaru: The second one reeks of poison. I don't know why but Qiang Feng says that something is fishy about this....
Hay Lin: I see .
She caught off the connection then saw something,it was curled on her laps,she already knew it...
Hay Lin: You little squirrel, you have come again?
It rubbed against her. Hay Lin handed over to it a bright big peach. A male servant came and bowed to her.
- Uhm miss?
Hay Lin: Yes ?
- My master says that he wishes to retrieve his contracted.
Hay Lin: Sure.
Without the servant knowing,she stuck in the squirrel's tail a message,the squirrel leapt and reached Beichen Ying who frowned.
Beichen Ying: How many times have I told you not to beg,feeding you isn't enough ? Yun .
The squirrel was squirming saying that he was wronged till aggraved before showing the huge peach fruit he hid in his fluffy tail.
Nangong liuyun: I wonder about the items hiding in your tail.
Lan Xuan: So small but large,with these how can you not feel at ease.
Beichen Ying: Is it a spatial creature ?
Nangong liuyun: Maybe...or not. ?
Beichen Ying caught Yun's tail and after fiddling tossed out a booklet to Lan Xuan.
Beichen Ying: He's also good at stealing stuff.
Lan Xuan: The size of my book is more than its tail.
Lan Xuan suddenly looked at Anye Ming who looked at Nangong Liuyun who nodded.
It was a message : Beware,those people practice forbidden cultivation. They are planning on how to eat us .

They bent back the paper like it was and hid it in Yun's tail again.
Nangong liuyun: Good job squirrel.
- Here comes,the Master of the Misty sect , Yong So !

The doors opened up as a man walked in,he had a sovereign aura as his look swept the hall. He was so handsome making women and men to blush. His long silver hairs and his golden coloured eyes plus indifferent gaze and cold demeanor added him a charm. His phoenix like eyebrows traced an air of mystery.
Feng Jin Yan stood up with a fawning gaze.
Feng Jin Yan: Master Yong , I am honoured to have you as my guest, Feng Shi Yan silly come and pay respects to your master
