Chapter 1564 Identity Confession



Yu Huang kept a low profile as she returned to the banquet hall. Many people were secretly sizing her up. Some people were commenting on her makeup for tonight, while others made various assumptions about the reason why she left with Jing Jiaren just now.

After a short discussion, it was time for the main event of the birthday banquet—

Longevity banquet.

Qingxi Momo rang the bell again. When everyone fell silent, she said, "Dear friends and family, the longevity banquet has been prepared. Please move to the lake to enjoy the longevity banquet."

The Myriad Steps Lake was a lake in the valley on the east side of the Divine Worship Mountain. Legend had it that the lake was ten thousand steps wide. In the middle of the lake, there was an ancient well that had been isolated. The ancient well was dark and bottomless, but it attracted many butterflies to rest there.

Therefore, the Myriad Steps Lake was also called the Butterfly Well.

Tonight, thousands of red lanterns floated in the sky above the Myriad Steps Lake and lit up the night sky.

A long circular table floated above the Myriad Steps Lake. The table was placed around the ancient well, and tens of thousands of butterflies shone in the night as they fluttered above the ancient well.

The guests walked to Myriad Steps Lake and sat cross-legged behind the table with their names written on it.

Yu Huang looked around, but she didn't see her seat.

At this moment, Old Madam Jing suddenly waved at Yu Huang and said, "Yu Huang, you and my granddaughter, Jiaren, are good friends and you have also done the Jing family a huge favor and are an honored guest of the Jing family. If you don't mind, Yu Huang, please come sit beside me and chat with Jiaren. How about that?"

Upon hearing this, all the guests raised their heads to look at Yu Huang and then at Old Madam Jing.

Old Madam Jing couldn't stand Yu Huang. Anyone with eyes could tell that, but Old Madam Jing took the initiative to express her goodwill to Yu Huang tonight, so her motive was worth pondering over.

Jing Ruge and her husband stood on Old Madam Jing's right. Jing Jiaren had her head lowered and stood quietly on Old Madam Jing's left. There was another empty seat beside her, which was the seat the Jing family had reserved for Yu Huang.

How could Yu Huang reject Old Madam Jing's kind offer in public?

"Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Old Madam. I happen to have some things to say to Miss Jing." With that, Yu Huang teleported beside Jing Jiaren.

When Yu Huang stood with many of the Jing family's disciples, some of the observant guests discovered a strange phenomenon—

It was said that slender phoenix eyes were the most symbolic trait of the Jing family's direct disciples. Usually, they wouldn't notice it without special observation, but today, when Yu Huang stood with the Jing family's disciples, they realized that Yu Huang's long and narrow phoenix eyes were very similar to that of the Jing family's.

Those who didn't know better would have mistaken Yu Huang for Jing Jiaren.

Of course, this was only the discovery of a portion of the experts.

As for those old people who had personally witnessed Jing Rujiu's rise and fall, the way they looked at Yu Huang was very eerie.

Yu Huang, who was wearing the ink-blue Saintess Descends gown, looked extremely similar to Jing Rujiu did back then.

It was said that this young woman called Yu Huang wasn't a cultivator from the Cang Lang Continent, but a Beast Tamer who had ascended from a small world. Didn't the genius of the Jing family, Jing Rujiu, had a daughter with a Beast Tamer from a small world out of wedlock?

Jing Rujiu gave birth thirty years ago.

Staring at Yu Huang's young and beautiful face, everyone already had an answer.

If they were not wrong, Yu Huang was very likely Jing Rujiu's daughter and Old Madam Jing's granddaughter.

The old man of the Song family had also guessed this relationship. He stared at Yu Huang and couldn't help but shake his head as he thought to himself, "If Yu Huang is really Old Madam Jing's granddaughter, then the strength and talent of the Jing family's younger generation are much better than those of the Song family."

After they sat down, the waiter served all kinds of dishes in an orderly manner. However, most of the dishes in the Divination Continent were mainly steamed, so they were quite mundane. Fortunately, the ingredients chosen for the longevity banquet were all top-notch and expensive. Even the food cooked in the simplest manner smelled very delicious and appetizing.

Yu Huang's appetite was piqued.

After Old Madam Jing picked up her chopsticks, Yu Huang picked up her chopsticks and ate quickly but elegantly.

Opposite them, Jing Ruge and Zhang Zhanyi faced the table full of delicacies, but they weren't that excited. There were too many people that they had to greet in the banquet hall earlier. The couple was so busy that they didn't notice the golden hairpin Yu Huang had inserted in her bun.

Just now, Yu Huang was called to her side by Old Madam Jing. When Yu Huang and Jing Jiaren stood together, only then did the couple realize that the golden hairpin on Yu Huang's head was the same as Jing Jiaren's.

Jing Jiaren's golden hairpin was given to her by Jing Rujiu.

This golden hairpin wasn't an ordinary golden hairpin. The raw material it was made of wasn't a gold mine, but a golden pearl deep in the Serene Sea of the Dragon God Palace.

The most obvious characteristic of jewelry refined from the Golden Pearl was that when it was placed under the sunlight, it would emit a faint rainbow-colored light. This light couldn't be replicated by any material.

The golden hairpin on Yu Huang's head emitted a faint rainbow-colored light, just like Jing Jiaren's golden hairpin.

Thus, Jing Ruge could determine that the golden hairpin Yu Huang was wearing was also from his sister, Jing Rujiu.

As Jing Ruge looked at Yu Huang's young and beautiful face and her phoenix eyes that were extremely similar to Jing Jiaren's, a ridiculous thought appeared in his mind—

Could Yu Huang be his sister and Yin Mingjue's child?

At this moment, Jing Ruge was dying of curiosity. Jing Ruge suppressed the urge again and again, but he really couldn't take it anymore. He put down his jade chopsticks and looked up at Yu Huang as he said in a roundabout manner, "I heard from my daughter that Madam Yu Huang ascended from a small world. There were also a few young Beast Tamers who ascended with you. They all entered a good academy and will definitely have a bright future, so it can be seen that your hometown is quite extraordinary."

"I wonder what the name of your hometown is. I have a feeling that in the near future, your hometown will definitely become famous because of you guys."

Jing Ruge's question was very implicit, but Yu Huang naturally knew what he was thinking.

After hearing Jing Ruge's question, the other guests also looked up at Yu Huang.

With a smile, Yu Huang put down her jade chopsticks and raised her head as she said, "My hometown is only a small world. If I say its name, perhaps everyone will find it unfamiliar." After a pause, Yu Huang tilted her head and stared at Old Madam Jing before saying, "My hometown is called the Holy Spirit Continent. Because its spiritual energy is weak and its location is remote, there haven't been many Beast Tamers who have successfully ascended to a super large world in the past ten thousand years."

"According to what I know, in our hometown, only my father has successfully ascended to the super Great World's Cang Lang Academy in the past 300 years. He was even lucky enough to enter the inner academy to further his studies for a few years."
