Urban Super Medical Sage

"Yes." Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng nodded heavily. The task given by their Master must, of course, be completed.

"Also, unless necessary, try not to let Young Boy Su and Princess Lingxi talk." Li Buxiu continued.

From the conversation with Su Chen earlier, he could sense Su Chen's tone regarding Princess Lingxi was indifferent and casual, lacking awe. If Su Chen spoke to Princess Lingxi and offended her, everything would be ruined.

Young Boy Su might not know, but he did! Behind Zhao Lingxi is Zhao Funí, the fierce Zhao Funí! Even the Pavilion Master sometimes has to indulge Zhao Lingxi, and all the Vice Pavilion Masters have to appease Zhao Lingxi.

Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng trembled slightly, nodded again, heavily, with determination and assurance in their eyes.

"Sigh, I hope nothing happens tonight." Li Buxiu murmured to himself, then disappeared.

After leaving the Immortal Pavilion, Su Chen didn't go to the Xuanbao Pavilion but returned to his Swan Pavilion to continue cultivating.

Time passed.

Soon.

Evening arrived, and the sky was about to darken.

"Knock, knock, knock..." Su Chen's door was knocked.

Su Chen knew it was Gao Peng and Mei Xiuxiu.

Su Chen stood up, opened the door, a bit surprised.

Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng were dressed really...

How to say it.

Very formally.

Su Chen noticed even their hair was meticulously styled.

"Junior brother, why are you..." Mei Xiuxiu frowned: "Why haven't you washed up and gotten dressed?"

"Wash up and get dressed?" Su Chen was speechless.

"Of course. You're planning to attend Princess Lingxi's birthday banquet dressed like this?" Mei Xiuxiu felt a bit overwhelmed. She discovered the junior brother didn't understand anything. Well, forgive him. After all, he just recently joined the Xuanshi Divine Pavilion.

"There's no need for that." Su Chen directly refused. This attire was comfortable, and martial cultivators usually dressed like this. Moreover, though simple, his attire was clean and nothing was inappropriate. As a martial cultivator, he could always keep his clothes clean, so there wasn't any issue like dirty clothes.

"No way." Mei Xiuxiu glared at Su Chen: "Junior brother, everyone attending tonight's banquet will dress up properly. Like this, you'll be laughed at, even seen as disrespectful to Princess Lingxi."

"Indeed! Junior brother, wash up and dress up!" Gao Peng also nodded heavily. He was naturally large and somewhat simple-looking, but dressed so formally, it really was... how to say, a bit uncomfortable to look at.

"Let's go." Su Chen didn't want to dawdle, with a head full of black lines, he directly stepped out of the room, with no intention to specially wash up and dress, and no formal attire anyway. Not going to a pageant!

"Junior brother..." Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng were anxious, turning around to try blocking Su Chen, but unfortunately, Su Chen's speed was not slow.

Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng could only follow behind, endlessly trying to persuade him, nearly tying Su Chen back but he turned a deaf ear.

After a while, it was late, Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng could only shut up, for it was too late to go back, wash up, and change clothes again; dressing less formally was better than being late.

However, Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng felt a sinking feeling. Junior brother was too unruly, too willful, he'd suffer sooner or later! They were even worried about the mission given by their Master, wondering if tonight, if any conflict arose, they could truly stop the junior brother from acting rashly?

Soon.

When it was completely dark.

Su Chen, Mei Xiuxiu, and Gao Peng walked side by side, arriving at Lone Green Peak.

Lone Green Peak, a mountain of the Xuanshi Divine Pavilion.

Lone Green Peak was very special. Why was it named Lone Green? Because every time the winter snow blanketed the sky, only Lone Green Peak remained lush, with countless flowers as if it was still spring.

Lone Green Peak was thus the most beautiful among Xuanshi Divine Pavilion's many mountains.

And atop Lone Green Peak was Lone Green Hall, also a symbol of the Xuanshi Divine Pavilion.

Lone Green Hall was almost only opened by Xuanshi Divine Pavilion during significant events.

Yet, Princess Zhao Lingxi's birthday banquet was set at Lone Green Hall, indicating the level of favoritism and status.

Besides Zhao Lingxi, no one else in Xuanshi Divine Pavilion had their birthday banquet held at Lone Green Hall.

Lone Green Peak wasn't considered high, but it took the three of them the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to reach the top. According to Mei Xiuxiu, they couldn't use the flight technique; otherwise, it would be disrespectful.

They could only climb on foot.

Luckily, all three were martial cultivators with astounding strength; otherwise, if ordinary people, it would take three to five days to walk from the foot to Lone Green Hall.

Just as they reached the front of Lone Green Hall, noticeably, Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng's breathing became slightly heavier, and Su Chen felt it—his second senior sister and third senior brother were very nervous.

From afar, the door of Lone Green Hall was open, luxurious, with crystal stones and red lamps everywhere. Inside the hall, exquisite dancers were gracefully moving, bodies like rainbows, toes barely touching the ground, brows and eyes full of spring glow, colorful ribbons and scented wind like clouds, very beautiful.

Musicians were beside them, the Ten Thousand Year Purple Wooden Zither playing, and from afar, cheerful and melodious tunes could be heard.

Inside the hall, there were already quite a few disciples who had arrived, dancing as well. Naturally, it wasn't the jazz or waltz Su Chen was familiar with, but sword dance, brimming with heroic spirit and vigor.

The hall was bright, clearly prepared ahead, adorned with various colorful crystals, jade, gemstones, etc., truly extravagant.

Mei Xiuxiu and Gao Peng indeed were nervous; it was their first time attending Princess Zhao Lingxi's birthday banquet, and now, they were already in front of Lone Green Hall.

From afar, they could see the grand scene inside; too luxurious, too high-end, they hesitated, feeling somewhat inferior, believing the hall and themselves didn't quite fit.

"Junior brother, what did you prepare as a gift?" It seemed like to relieve his own nerves, Gao Peng subconsciously asked.

"Didn't prepare one." Su Chen replied truthfully.

"Junior brother, don't joke." Gao Peng smiled bitterly, naturally not believing it, going without a gift? The birthday star eating arsenic, had they lived enough? Until now, no one dared come without a gift to Princess Zhao Lingxi's birthday, it would be a provocation, a provocation to Princess Zhao Lingxi, hehe...

"Once inside, don't talk about such unreliable jokes." Mei Xiuxiu glared at Su Chen again. She truly felt her junior brother was too carefree; she was already intensely nervous, and he still had room for jokes that could scare to death. Without a gift? Even if Master Li Buxiu attended, he would bring one.

Su Chen didn't explain further.

He quickened his pace.

Gao Peng and Mei Xiuxiu hurried to catch up.
