Glamorous Journey Of The Female Protagonist - Chapter 280

The liveliness of the banquet filled everyone with good vibes as soon as they set their foot inside the Great Hall.

Li Ming entered the hall with her mates. The fact that the Heaven Emperor was walking beside her made everything very clear to all those who were present inside the hall.

As everyone took their seats after greeting the Heaven Emperor and the rest of the five Immortal Lords, Li Ming also took her seat beside Zhang Yong.

While the Heaven Emperor moved to sit on his throne and the rest of her four mates took their seats among the High Immortals.

The hall quietened down as the Empress Dowager of the Heaven Realm made her grand entry.

Li Ming followed the others and stood up to greet the woman who was the mother of the ruler of the Heaven Realm.

She found Ruoshan giving her a quick nod of encouragement when their eyes met. She returned a soft smile as she once again settled down in her seat.

She finally took some time to take in the beautifully decorated hall. Whoever was responsible for making arrangements for the Golden banquet, had done a superb job according to her.

Her attention was pulled towards the entrance of the hall where a group of ten people appeared, almost all of them were in fade blue clothes except for the Elder who was wearing grey robes and the young man beside him who was looking elegant in white silk clothes.

Their eyes met and she found surprise and amazement filling his eyes as he continued to look at her.

Li Ming was so taken aback by the sudden change in his cold expression that she was not able to immediately pull her attention away from him.

She felt a throat-clearing beside her and when she turned her face towards Zhang Yong, she found the man busy in talking to some other Immortal deity.

Her eyes once turned to look at the group of people who were with the white-robed man and saw them taking seats where the guests from the mortal realm were sitting.

She was still surprised that she was not sitting in that same section even though she too was from the mortal realm.

Her attention was pulled towards the high platform when the guard standing beside Empress Dowager pulled everyone’s attention towards the woman who appeared to be in her mid-forties even though she was clearly too old to be believed.

“It’s such a good feeling to see all of you present at this banquet. I want to show my gratitude towards all the guests present here for giving this old lady some face and accepting my invitation.”

The hall burst out into soft chuckles as everyone toasted to the Empress Dowager and her good health.

The banquet officially started as servants started pouring into the hall with snacks and wine while a group of musicians occupied the platform that had appeared in the center of the hall.

One after the other, various groups of skillful entertainers kept taking over the platform to show their skills.

“Are you enjoying your time here?”

Li Ming was taken by surprise when she heard a familiar voice asking the question.

She pulled her attention away from the group, who were playing musical instruments, and turned to look at the woman who was standing beside her table.

As soon as her eyes landed on the figure of the woman who was looking just elegant in her light green dress and simple jewelry as she looked the very first time they stumbled across each other, she immediately stood up to greet the woman.

“Elder Quinyang!” Li Ming greeted the lady while clasping her hands and bowing her head.

The woman standing in front of her was none other than the Elder from the Medical Sect of the Guixian Academy.

They encountered each other on the very first day when Li Ming entered the Academy grounds and was preparing for the second round of the entrance exam.

After that, she saw the Elder very rarely since she was not in the Array sect and also because Li Ming was in closed-door cultivation with her master nearly for all her time in the Academy.

It wasn’t until she came out of the closed-door cultivation that she got to know that Elder Quinyang was Wen Guiying’s elder sister.

The level of shock that she received was similar to the one that she got when she first met Heaven Emperor’s mother.

“You don’t need to be so courteous. Especially since we are going to become a family.” Elder Quinyang said with a smile on her lips as she looked at her brother’s future wife with warm eyes.

She was more than happy to know that Miss Li was the ‘Chosen One’. In the past five years, she had observed the young lady very carefully.

She was kind, polite, warm-hearted, helpful, someone who believed in equality. She was brave, powerful, strong, and knew how to fight for her loved ones.

But most importantly, she loved Wen Guiying with all her heart.

In the beginning, Elder Quinying was worried that whoever would be the ‘Chosen One’, she won’t be able to love five men equally. This always made her worry about her brother.

However, Li Ming succeeded in proving her worries wrong. She loved all her five makes equally and her love for her bondmate was just as strong as her love for her soulmates.

She was a hundred percent sure that Li Ming was the best girl for the position of the ‘Chosen One’.

“I’ll love it if you can call me Sister Ying in the future.” Elder Quinying added as she took the girl’s hands in her own to show her affection.

Li Ming almost choked on dry air but somehow she succeeded in staying calm.

She pulled on a small smile as she hurriedly nodded in reply to her suggestion. After all, it was a good thing that her sister-in-law had accepted her, right?
