Three days later, Taixuan Sacred Land welcomed two guests.
The two came up and took out two letters. One is an invitation letter from Guan Shuo, the holy son of Taixuan Sacred Land, and the other is a letter that these two guests took out on their own initiative.
It reads: “Feng Shao and his dao companion Lin Xiaoran wish to visit the holy son of Taixuan Sacred Land.”
After the disciple responsible for gatekeeping got these two letters, he immediately handed them over to Guan Shuo as quickly as possible. And when Guan Shuo got these two letters, he had to admire Feng Shao’s wit and means.
In Guan Shuo’s invitation, only Feng Shao was invited, not Lin Xiaoran. This means that Feng Shao should go to the appointment alone, with at most two entourages. However, based on Guan Shuo’s understanding of Feng Shao, there is a high probability that Feng Shao will not bring followers.
But he never expected Feng Shao to bring his fiancée here. And in order to justify his behavior of bringing his fiancée, he also brought a letter regarding their visit.
Although the words “Yunjian Pavilion” were not mentioned in the greeting card, the name “Lin Xiaoran” is already very telling. And Feng Shao didn’t use the word “fiancé”, but “dao companion.” Compared with calling her fiancé, the title of dao companion has a little different meaning.
Some dao companions have married, and some have not. Regardless of whether they are married or not, it can be called a “dao companion.” Feng Shao deliberately used this word to blur the concept of them being unmarried.
In the case of unmarried couples, the relationship between the two parties may be close or distant, but dao companions must be close.
In addition, Lin Xiaoran naturally carries the “Yunjian Pavilion” attribute, which is Feng Shao is emphasizing to the other party that the relationship between himself and Yunjian Pavilion is very close.Feng Shao clearly did not mention the words “Yunjian Pavilion”, but he clearly conveyed such a meaning, how could Guan Shuo not be filled with admiration?
In fact, Guan Shuo’s feelings towards Feng Shao are very complicated. Although the two had conflicts, they were not too serious. He still admires Feng Shao more, after all, Feng Shao developed a sect that was about to lose even its title of “sect” into a second-rate sect almost by himself.
And the reason why he had trouble with Feng Shao was mainly because of the issue of face. So his plan was simply to make Feng Shao lose face in return. As long as this goal is achieved, the anger in his heart will disappear.
But if Feng Shao really lost face, he would look down on Feng Shao because of it.
Even Guan Shuo himself couldn’t tell whether he wanted Feng Shao to lose face or not.
However, Feng Shao brought Lin Xiaoran to visit, which directly resolved this problem.
Guan Shuo can make Feng Shao lose face, but not Lin Xiaoran.
Lin Xiaoran represents Yunjian Pavilion, and making Lin Xiaoran lose face is making Yunjian Pavilion lose face.
Everyone is a superpower in Dongzhou, and no one is lower than anyone else.
It would turn into a situation where, “If you make me, Yunjian Pavilion, lose face, then I have no choice but to make you, Taixuan Sacred Land, lose face too.”
With Lin Fengtian and Xiao Ruoyao’s world-famous characteristics of “crazily doting on their little girl,” Taixuan Sacred Land can’t help but lose face.
So there was only one choice left before Guan Shuo.
What’s interesting is that Guan Shuo not only didn’t feel aggrieved, but found it extremely funny, and couldn’t help but burst out laughing out loud.
At this time, Holy Maiden Han Lingxuan of Taixuan Sacred Land was sitting in front of Guan Shuo. After seeing Guan Shuo read the letter and then laugh like a madman, she couldn’t help frowning, and asked, “Why are you laughing, brother?”
Guan Shuo didn’t answer directly, but said to Han Lingxuan, “Junior sister, do you still remember the holy son of Taiwei Sect that I mentioned to you?”
After thinking for a while, Han Lingxuan asked, “Are you talking about the old holy son Feng Shao, or the new holy son Ye Chen?”
“Ye Chen?” Guan Shuo sneered, “A person with high ambitions and low ability is nothing to worry about. Of course, I’m talking about the old holy son Feng Shao.”
Han Lingxuan asked with a puzzled look, “The Taiwei Sect is only a second-rate sect, why do you care so much about their holy son?”
Guan Shuo sighed, and said, “It’s okay for you not to care! I, your senior brother, can’t do that. Since I was named the holy son, no matter whether inside or outside the Sacred Land, have I ever suffered any loss? But in Feng Shao’s hands, not only have I suffered a loss, but I can’t even get back at him. Junior sister, tell me, is this funny or not?”
Han Lingxuan nodded, “It’s really funny. But if you yourself think it’s funny too, then something’s wrong with you.”
Guan Shuo pointed to the worship post and said, “This Feng Shao is a talent! If he was a disciple under our Taixuan Sacred Land, how could I be the current holy son? And he was born with a bright heart, careful and considerate. It is a pleasure to be with such a person, whether as an enemy or a friend.”
It was rare for Han Lingxuan to see Guan Shuo praise someone so much, so she couldn’t help feeling a little curious.
She asked, “Since you are so optimistic about this Feng Shao, why didn’t you invite him to join our Taixuan Sacred Land? Between that small Taiwei Sect and our Taixuan Sacred Land, as long as one is not a fool, who would not choose our Sacred Land?”
