Chapter 123 is simply arrogant.
Chapter 123 is simply arrogant.
Everyone stood up, preparing to leave the table.
Di Yao panicked and immediately became at a loss.
If her mother finds out that she ruined the Autumn Mountain Banquet and angered the clans, then everything will be over.
She quickly stood up, but before she could say anything to persuade him to stay, she was interrupted.
"Please wait, everyone—"
It's Bai Sang'er.
The Nightingale's voice was clear and melodious; as soon as she spoke, everyone turned around at the sound.
"Our Lady said that today's banquet will surely make everyone leave satisfied. Please wait a moment, gentlemen, to enjoy the delicacies before you go."
"You're quite arrogant!" the crowd scoffed. "What delicacies? Your Nightbird Clan is just throwing in some rotten fish and shrimp to fill the table. How can our dignified clan share food and drink with slaves?"
Bai Sang'er laughed: "Our lady said that tonight we will have a whole fish feast, made with fish specially selected from the North Sea. It is unique and unparalleled in the entire Nine Provinces and even the Divine Mountain. I guarantee that you will never forget it. If you don't believe me, you may leave the table. Goodbye."
drink--
Outrageous!
Madness!
That's utterly arrogant!
"Your Lady makes such boastful claims, I'd like to ask you, what if things don't turn out as you say?"
Bai Sang'er stood ramrod straight and swept her gaze across the room: "Our Lady said that if anything does not suit your tastes, you are free to do as you please, without any objection."
"Isn't this just empty talk? If word gets out that our clan is making things difficult for a mere female, what will become of our reputation?"
"Exactly, you guys don't lose out on this deal."
Hearing the murmurs of the crowd, Bai Sang'er said calmly, "Our Lady also said that this whole fish feast is the Yuanzhou Autumn Harvest Feast. It is the first time our Night Bird Clan has organized it, and we also want to get some good luck. Anyone who finds an Eastern Pearl in the belly of a fish will be rewarded with a Rejuvenating Pill, for a total of three."
what!
"The Rejuvenating Pill!"
One sentence, like a thunderclap, resounded throughout the entire venue!
What is the Rejuvenating Pill?
It's a life-saving medicine for those on the verge of death, a lifeline in the face of great calamity, capable of pulling you back from the brink of death as long as you have a breath left.
Such a miraculous medicine, even if it existed, would only be given to the most promising members of the clan. Ordinary people would never have even seen it, let alone be able to save their lives.
The crowd looked at each other in bewilderment. Those who had been clamoring to leave their seats earlier sat back down almost without a moment's hesitation.
As soon as they took the lead, everyone else sat down.
joke.
You only have one life. Who can guarantee that you won't need it in the future? Even if you don't need it yourself, it's worth it to give it to your cubs or mate.
Seeing this, Bai Sang'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She really thought she was going to die.
Fortunately, she remembered everything Mu Yunyun told her when she came over.
Just as the lady had guessed, these people are arrogant because of their background and will not be able to put down their pride. So, we will lure them with benefits, and we are not afraid that they will not give in.
......
Before Ying Ze even went to the banquet, news from the banquet had already reached him.
"The lady is amazing. She calmed everyone down in no time. Now they are all waiting obediently for the banquet to begin. No one wants to leave."
The one speaking was a maidservant who served Ying Ze, named Gudu, the one who had been the loudest when picking the Thousand-Leaf Vine.
Compared to his previous arrogant attitude towards Mu Yunyun, he now admires her wholeheartedly.
"She's so generous with the Rejuvenation Pill. Even I, from the Ying family, only have two. She gave away three in one go. No wonder people are envious."
The old witch doctor chuckled, feeling restless and eager to join the feast.
Ying Ze gave a small hum.
"What kind of Rejuvenating Pill is this? I suspect it's just another scam. Father, don't believe her."
That's what she said, but the pride in her eyes seemed genuine. Ying Yu pretended not to see it, but he was increasingly satisfied.
He tapped him on the head: "Don't talk nonsense anymore. Hurry up and get ready, don't keep the master of the house waiting."
"Understood, Father."
