Chapter 89: Feast

Upon hearing Ye Yong’s request, Mu Qing Yin fell silent.

She indeed hadn’t been out for a long time. Usually, any tasks or instructions were passed through the painting beauties, and Yi Bai and others handled the work, causing some disciples to have never seen have despite being in the hall for more than 10 years. Sometimes, they even forgot they had a Hall Master.

Mu Qing Yin had high emotional intelligence but found social interactions quite troublesome. She preferred staying in her own little circle and didn’t want to engage too much with others.

If Yi Bai and the others had proposed such a thing, Mu Qing Yin would have refused without a second thought. However, Ye Yong’s situation was clearly different. Despite the Favorability System showing her attitude towards Ye Yong as [Rather Satisfied Disciple], this was actually the highest evaluation among all the disciples in the Music and Art Hall.

Mu Qing Yin had very high standards and was very demanding.

For example, Yi Bai, who focused on spiritual breakthroughs in art and was 211 years old and at the 9th layer of the Golden Core Realm, was quite impressive. Yet in Mu Qing Yin’s eyes, Yi Bai was merely a [Disciple with good talent but still immature and troublesome at over 200 years old, having a romantic mortal heart].

In any case, Mu Qing Yin took Ye Yong’s words seriously and pondered. “I will see if I have any urgent matters to take care of.”

What urgent matters could there be? She mostly lay in bed reading, painting when inspired, playing the zither when bored, or using her divine sense to scan the entire Echo Mountain to check if any disciples were slacking.

Ye Yong knew Mu Qing Yin well. Although she was clearly reluctant to engage in social interactions, she spoke as if she had to check her schedule for free slots. But Ye Yong obviously didn’t dare to point that out.

“Then I won’t disturb you any further.” After finishing the formalities, Ye Yong left to prepare for the feast, like taking out and reheating the spiritual food from his ring, arranging the dishes, and so on.

“Go ahead.”

Once Ye Yong and the painting beauties left, the cave residence immediately became silent again.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

Mu Qing Yin looked at the steam rising from the teapot on the table and sighed, “Don’t want to go out... It seems so troublesome...”

...

“Brother, did you really buy that Sparrow Silk Bird Initial Feather?” During the descent, Hua Ming’s voice came from one of the painting scrolls.

Good sister! You didn’t even need me to bring it up and just brought it up right away! Ye Yong wanted to open the painting scroll and kiss the painting beauties inside. But such matters should be saved for when he gets ownership of their painting scrolls in the future. For now, he made a mental note and planned to make up for it later.

Feigning contemplation, Ye Yong lowered his voice, “Actually, I went to the Spirit Specter Mountain to find that feather.”

As Yi Bai just came in, someone immediately noticed the difference in her.

Cultivators have good memories, and they saw each other often, so changes in details were hard to miss.

“Isn’t it beautiful?” Yi Bai said with a hint of pride. This is a gift from Junior Brother Ye, he has me in his heart!

“Extremely beautiful!”

“Last time I went to Cheng Ying City, I didn’t see such exquisite craftsmanship anywhere.”

“I also want one. Where did you buy it?”

“I’m not telling you.” Yi Bai wasn’t going to boast. She knew that if she revealed it, everyone would definitely ask Ye Yong for one, and Ye Yong would likely give them all one. If he had already prepared gifts for everyone, it would be fine, but if he didn’t, making him rush out to buy them last minute would be harming him. Yi Bai wasn’t that naive.

However, upon further thought, she thought that is wasn’t that bad because she could use it as an excuse to go out and shop with Ye SYong alone.

But after that, everyone would have a gift, and hers wouldn’t be so special anymore, so she decided to keep it a secret.

Lu Xiao XIao held a book with the feather pen tucked inside. Seeing Yi Bai receive a lot of praise, she also wanted to open her book and show off her feather pen. Should I just wear it on my hair as an accessory?

In the end, she didn’t do that. Lu Xiao Xiao didn’t really like to show off, and she only wanted the gift from Ye Yong to be seen and appreciated.

...

With the venue set up and the food, wine, and spiritual fruits all ready, and just as everyone was preparing to offer their congratulations to Ye Yong, a woman in green clothes entered.

She moved gracefully, and every step seemed to be surrounded by the aura of a painting. Her beautiful face showed little expression, resembling a regal queen.

“Is this a senior sister we haven’t met before?” The junior sisters who joined Ye Yong at the same time as Ye Yong were curious. The woman in green was too beautiful, and her demeanor was not something they could compare to.

The veteran disciples of the Music and Art Hall looked over upon hearing the commotion.

They were stunned and blinked several times to make sure they didn’t see wrong. They all exclaimed in shock, “Hall, Hall Master!?”
