Chapter 81.1

When Lin Fengtian and Xiao Ruoyao found Lin Xiaoran, what they saw was Lin Xiaoran nestling in Feng Shao’s arms. The two of them were sitting by the lake, holding the phoenix egg and sitting quietly.

It was probably the mother-daughter connection because as soon as Xiao Ruoyao arrived, Lin Xiaoran felt it. After turning her head and seeing her mother, Lin Xiaoran immediately smiled, stood up, and waved at Xiao Ruoyao, “Mother, I’m here!”

Xiao Ruoyao rushed forward, hugged Lin Xiaoran, and said with a trembling voice, “Are you alright? Are you injured?”

Lin Xiaoran plunged into Xiao Ruoyao’s arms, and said softly, “Don’t worry, mother, I’m fine! This time, it’s thanks to big brother Shao! He came in time and saved me from that big devil!”

Lin Fengtian slowly walked up to Feng Shao, patted his shoulder, and said emotionally, “You saved Ran’er once more. I really don’t know how to thank you.”

Feng Shao saluted and said, “Uncle, no need for thanks. This is my, Feng Shao’s, responsibility.”

Lin Fengtian looked at Feng Shao’s appearance. The more he looked at him, the more satisfied he became. He couldn’t help but laugh as he spoke, “Hahaha! I, Lin Fengtian, have such a good son-in-law, what more can I ask for!”

Lin Xiaoran looked at them with a smile and a proud look on her face.

Xiao Ruoyao also looked toward them with a smile, and said, “Feng Shao, you must stay longer when you come back with us to Yunjian Pavilion this time! Also, choose a time! Let’s arrange your marriage with Ran’er!”

Although marrying Feng Shao was Lin Xiaoran’s lifelong desire, hearing her mother say those words, she couldn’t help but feel flustered and bashful. She buried her head in her mother’s arms and angrily said, “Mother, what are you talking about!”

Xiao Ruoyao just smiled and teased, “What’s the matter? Didn’t you always say that you won’t marry anyone other than Feng Shao? Your parents are arranging it for you today. Why? You don’t want to?”

Lin Xiaoran whispered, “It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s just… just…”

Lin Xiaoran “just” couldn’t explain it for a long time. Xiao Ruoyao and Lin Fengtian couldn’t help laughing when they saw Lin Xiaoran’s shy look.

On that day, Lin Fengtian, the owner of the Yunjian Pavilion, announced that everyone would celebrate the arrival of a distinguished guest for three days, and held a banquet in the main hall of the Yunjian Pavilion to entertain the distinguished guest.

As soon as this decision was made, everyone in Yunjian Pavilion was elated.

Yunjian Pavilion was not considered the strongest in Dongzhou in terms of strength, but it is second to none in terms of financial capability.

During festivals and celebrations, Lin Fengtian and his wife will give many rewards.

Ranging from pills and refining materials to cultivation techniques and magical items, the entire Yunjian Pavilion, no matter the high or low, received rewards.

And those are just during festivals. This time it is a large banquet with a distinguished guest, and the level is naturally different. The rewards this time will only be more than usual.

In this way, how could everyone in the Yunjian Pavilion not be happy?

At this banquet, Feng Shao was the main character.

In the eyes of most people in Yunjian Pavilion, Feng Shao was a new face.

Although they didn’t understand why Lin Fengtian and Xiao Ruoyao valued this little-known young man so much, they were considered to have taken advantage of Feng Shao due to the rewards, so at the banquet, everyone, whether they knew him or not, had a slight affection for Feng Shao.

Yunjian Pavilion is a big force in Dongzhou, and there are many masters and renowned names in the pavilion.

Although the people who were eligible to participate in the banquet were only a small part of them, there were still dozens of people.

In addition to Xiao Ruoyao, the master of the Xiaoyao Hall, Di Yu, the master of the Vermilion Bird Hall, Jia Chan, the master of the Qingxing Hall, Xue Li, the master of the Fire Refining Hall, and others were all present at the banquet.

What surprised Feng Shao the most was that Leng Lingyue, the master of Lengyue Hall who was rumored to be stronger than Lin Fengtian, also appeared.

Leng Lingyue, the master of Lengyue Hall, is the daughter of Leng Ping, the Black Tortoise Envoy, who was originally a member of Tianxin Sect.

This girl was obsessed with cultivation and swordsmanship and had outstanding talents.

As soon as she came out of the mountain and was born into the cultivation world, she won the reputation of “Lengyue Sword Emperor” and “Lengyue Fairy,” and her popularity is even greater than Xiao Ruoyao, the “Xiaoyao Sword Immortal” and “Xiaoyao Fairy.”

During the establishment of Yunjian Pavilion, Leng Lingyue made great contributions to Yunjian Pavilion, having fought Long Huaiyu alone with two swords for more than three hundred rounds without losing.

The name of Leng Lingyue and Lengyue’s two swords became famous all over the world.

She and Xiao Ruoyao treat each other as sisters, and as Lin Fengtian’s sworn sister, her status in Yunjian Pavilion can be imagined.

But Leng Lingyue has always been ascetic, except for the two swords in her hands, there seems to be nothing that interests her.

It was really surprising that Leng Lingyue unexpectedly appeared in Yunjian Pavilion for Lin Fengtian’s big banquet for a guest this time.

Another thing that surprised everyone, but not Feng Shao, was that Lin Fengtian’s only daughter, Lin Xiaoran, also appeared at the banquet.

Different from Lin Xiaoran’s “holding a pipa and covering half her face” dress in the past, this time Lin Xiaoran showed off her natural beauty, which made almost everyone present dazzled and amazed.

Everyone knows of Lin Xiaoran.

But Lin Fengtian and Xiao Ruoyao have always been very protective of this daughter, especially since she was lost once when she was eight years old, which led to Lin Xiaoran being raised in a deep boudoir.

Even if she goes out, she will be surrounded by a powerful Taoist protector like Di Yu, who will hide her name and not show her face.

At most, everyone has only heard that Lin Xiaoran is as beautiful as the Holy Maiden Shao Yunqing from Jiuyin Sacred Land, but they have never seen her personally.

Only after seeing the truth this time did they know that the rumors were true.

Lin Xiaoran toasted everyone with a glass of wine generously, then came to Feng Shao’s side and sat down. Seeing this scene, many people immediately understood in their hearts, and couldn’t help but secretly marvel in their hearts.

What is the origin of this Feng Shao to win the heart of the little princess of Yunjian Pavilion?

After Lin Xiaoran took her seat, Lin Fengtian and Xiao Ruoyao, who sat side by side at the head of the table, toasted together.

Lin Fengtian said with a smile, “This banquet is for my daughter’s savior, young master Feng Shao. Young master Feng saved my little daughter from danger twice, and everyone in my Lin family deeply appreciates his kindness. Here, we husband and wife would like to express our gratitude to you. With this wine, I would like to thank young master Feng for saving Ran’er’s life!”

After speaking, Lin Fengtian and Xiao Ruoyao drank the wine in their cups in one gulp.

Feng Shao got up quickly, raised his glass, and said, “Aunt and Uncle are too polite, it really upsets this junior! Junior is here, and junior toasts to Aunt and Uncle!”

Then Feng Shao drank it all in one gulp.
