397 Willing to Live off a Woman
At this moment, the crowd also quieted down. Everyone looked at the second floor of the Shangguan Residence.
A figure appeared at the end of the corridor. She was wearing a veil and her face could not be seen.
However, this figure was enough to make people willingly live off a woman.
Just as Dong Xi was about to sigh, Rui Ming said, “Junior Sister, I’m going to snatch the embroidered ball too.”
Dong Xi, “?”
What was going on? Not only one, but both her Senior Brothers were captivated by this beauty?
Dong Xi was really regretful. If she had known earlier, she would have called her Senior Sister over instead.
These Senior Brothers were too unreliable. It had only been the first day, and the two of them had already been defeated like this?
“Senior Brother, do you also think highly of this Miss Shangguan?” asked Dong Xi.
Rui Ming shook his head. There was no expression of liking on his face. Instead, he frowned and looked miserable.
“I feel that the lost item is on this woman,” said Rui Ming.
Dong Xi’s expression changed drastically. She grabbed Rui Ming and said, “Senior Brother, there’s no need to do this. Things that are lost can be found. If we were to sacrifice our entire lives…”
Without waiting for Dong Xi to finish, Rui Ming said, “It doesn’t matter. We demon beasts have very long lifespans. Not to mention that Miss Shangguan is a mortal, even Shangguan Patriarch, who is in the Soul Formation stage, can’t live longer than me.”
Dong Xi, “…”
He had a point.
Dong Xi stood still, watching Rui Ming Shixiong walk into the crowd with determination.
Dong Xi scratched her head. She really could not figure it out.
Didn’t they say that the crane race was very loyal and only had one spouse in their lives?
She did not know what Senior Brother Rui Ming had lost that he was willing to devote his life to her?
Dong Xi pondered for a long time, but there was no result. A slender and handsome man came out.
The man said, “Thank you all for coming. My daughter has also reached the age of marriage. I have always wanted to find a good son-in-law for my daughter so that I can accompany her for the rest of my life. It can also help our Shangguan family maintain its reputation…”
As soon as Shangguan Patriarch said that, everyone cheered.
Miss Shangguan was beside Shangguan Patriarch. Dong Xi looked at her from afar and felt a little awkward.
Everyone in the cultivation world had a deceptive face, and one could not tell their age at all.
After saying that, Shangguan Patriarch took the embroidered ball from the maid’s hand and placed it in Miss Shangguan’s hand.
“Yun’er, let’s begin,” said Shangguan Patriarch.
“Understood, Father,” said Shangguan Yun’er softly.
Except, this casual sentence had hooked away the hearts of countless young geniuses.
Dong Xi could not help but sigh. Unfortunately, this woman was short-lived.
Just as this thought appeared in her mind, Dong Xi immediately shook her head.
Forget it, Dong Xi was not qualified to say that.
People could live for one or two hundred years even if they were short-lived, unlike Dong Xi who had just celebrated her 18th birthday in her previous life…
Shangguan Yun’er held the embroidered ball, her long and slender fingers were very fair under the red embroidered ball.
Shangguan Yun’er was not interested in this matter, so she threw the embroidered ball casually.
Her expression was calm, as if she did not care who could snatch the embroidered ball.
Instead, Dong Xi cared a lot, her gaze never leaving the embroidered ball.
She also saw that in order to snatch the embroidered ball, everyone displayed their abilities. All kinds of spells wrapped around the embroidered ball. Seeing that someone was about to get it, countless spells would attack.
Dong Xi also saw Rui Ming and Tie Zhu among these people. However, with just one look, Dong Xi was sure that her two Senior Brothers would not get it.
Dong Xi originally thought that this embroidered ball would be obtained by someone in no time. She did not expect that it was almost evening, and everyone was still fighting for it.
Dong Xi yawned as she watched. She then jumped onto the roof opposite the Shangguan Residence and began to meditate.
As soon as she closed her eyes, a cry of surprise sounded. Then, a strong wind blew against her face.
Dong Xi subconsciously wanted to dodge, but she instantly recalled what Senior Brother Rui Ming had said. Shangguan Yun’er had the item that Senior Brother Rui Ming had lost.
Dong Xi raised her hand, and spiritual energy gathered. The Fist of Earth appeared and neutralized the spiritual energy on the embroidered ball. Dong Xi dispersed the spiritual energy and the embroidered ball fell into Dong Xi’s hand.
It was unknown what material the embroidered ball was made of, but it was actually not damaged at all after being snatched by everyone.
At this moment, Dong Xi was standing on the roof alone. She was wearing a long green robe and had short hair that reached his neck. She really looked like a young man.
The scene was silent for a moment. Then, immortal music sounded in Shangguan Manor, and the door slowly opened.
Two rows of female servants walked out with flower branches in their hands. Everyone consciously made way for them. The female servants came to the room and bowed to Dong Xi. One of them said, “Master, please enter the residence.”
Dong Xi, “…”
