Chapter 1305: Chapter 1305: Lake Tour

Chi Fei and Chi Lan exchanged a glance and looked over towards Lord Beiting Jing and his group. Everyone in the party was young, with extraordinary looks and distinguished air about them. This piqued the interest of the two who had been following Xu Xiaomo everywhere and chasing after Ming for two months since arriving in the Central Continent.

However, their intentions would depend on Xu Xiaomo’s attitude. The two had originally thought they could enjoy some sightseeing on this trip, but little did they know that this young lady would run them ragged.

Fortunately, after Xu Xiaomo sized up Lord Beiting Jing, she noticed his dignified appearance, with eyebrows like swords and eyes full of righteousness. She saw a resemblance to Beiting Huang, although Lord Beiting Jing didn’t possess the somewhat androgynous beauty of Beiting Huang. Instead, he exuded a heroic vigor and commanding presence. She nodded and led Chi Fei and Chi Lan towards him.

“My name is Xu Xiaomo! Because my mother is called Su Mo, my father, loving her deeply, used her name as part of mine!” If it weren’t for these people, Xu Xiaomo would easily use her brother’s name, as the sound of Xu Xiaomo and Xu Xiaomo wouldn’t provide any distinction upon hearing.

But the group in front of her consisted of her brother’s best friends and seniors, so Xu Xiaomo couldn’t bring herself to hide even her name. She pointed to the Chi Fei Brothers behind her, “These two are my friends, Chi Fei and Chi Lan, the sons of the Thirty-Three Heavens Divine Sword Ridge Great Supreme!”

Upon hearing this, Chi Fei and Chi Lan nearly went mad. Introducing their names would have sufficed; was there a need to lay out their entire background as if registering their household? But they only dared to grumble internally and would not dare to say a single word of refusal in front of this young lady.

Watching the behavior of Xu Xiaomo and her companions, Lord Beiting Jing chuckled inwardly. He also gave a slight bow to Xu Xiaomo, “I am Lord Beiting Jing, I am Little Ninth’s brother. This group includes our brothers and sisters, all from the four major families.”

As he said this, he introduced Dongfang Jiao and the others. True to Lord Beiting Jing’s words, they were all direct descendants from the Dongfang, Ximen, Southern Palace, and Beiting Family clans. Xu Xiaomo nodded, “Yeah, the Land of Hidden Fog in the Thirty-Three Heavens also has four major families. Like you, I know one or two of them, but I have never had dealings with them.”

Hearing about the Thirty-Three Heavens’ Land of Hidden Fog, Lord Beiting Jing and the others became interested. They were ready to rent a painted boat to cruise on the lake when Liu Xu, having found someone, came with a boat and waved at them from afar, “The Great Elder has sent this boat over; hurry and come aboard!”

The painted boat had three levels, extravagantly decorated with carved dragons and painted phoenixes. Colorful curtains floated around the vessel, and inside the cabins, tables had been prepared according to the number of people; the tables were laden with Golden Goblets and Jade Liquors along with exquisite delicacies. Beautiful maidens adorned the venue, with the sound of silk and bamboo instruments.

Once Chi Fei and Chi Lan boarded the painted boat and sat at their designated table, they heaved a long sigh. Chi Lan didn’t wait for an invitation from Lord Beiting Jing and others, grabbing a piece of meat from the table and took a big bite, “Ah, this is the life we should be living!”

Xu Xiaomo was rather annoyed, as if accompanying her to the Central Continent was a huge inconvenience for the two. Lord Beiting Jing caught a glimpse of this resentment and subtly signaled the maids to entertain the Chi Fei Brothers well. He then offered a toast to Xu Xiaomo, “Brother Xu, I thank you once again. The situation in Huang City could have been unthinkable without your presence!”

“It’s nothing!” Xu Xiaomo dismissed with a wave of her hand, completely nonchalant, “Huang City is my brother’s, and my brother is Beiting Huang; he is the city lord. If I don’t protect it, who will? You really don’t need to thank me. If you thank me, I’ll just leave. My father says only very pedantic people always have the word ‘thank you’ on their lips!”
