Ultimate Upgrading System

After the ceremony, King Yaen Zhao turned to the people below and said, "Everyone, I am very honored to be able to attend this banquet! Thank you all for your hard work. It is precisely because of you that Yaen Country is able to avoid the flames of war! Let us drink to our heart's content! "    

    

As King Yaen Zhao spoke, he raised his wine cup and signalled to the crowd below the stage. After that, he downed the wine in one gulp.    

    

Everyone below the stage also stood up, raised their glasses, and drank the wine in one gulp.    

    

King Yaen Zhao gestured for everyone to sit back down and take the main seat.    

    

Following that, many servants came and went to eat the dishes on the ground, while Yang Ying and the others ate to their heart's content.    

    

However, Yang Ying kept thinking about Ji Xue coming, so he raised his head and looked around, but he did not see her at all.    

    

After a while, a few beautiful women suddenly walked out from behind.    

    

The person in front wore a phoenix crown, wore a brocade robe, and had snow-white skin. She was extremely beautiful. And beside her phoenix crown was a white jade hairpin.    

    

If a person didn't carefully observe it, they wouldn't be able to notice it at all.    

    

A few waitresses followed behind that person. Judging from their attire, they were clearly this person's personal maidservants.    

    

Seeing this, everyone in the hall raised their heads and looked at the few people who were slowly walking over.    

    

When they saw that woman was so beautiful, their hearts were filled with admiration.    

    

The scene instantly became silent.    

    

The leading man bowed to King Yaen Zhao, then came to Sect Leader Qing Hongzi and Peak Lord Lee and bowed. However, she did not stop and continued to walk towards the door.    

    

Yang Ying noticed that there was suddenly no sound around him.    

    

What was going on? Confused, he put down the fruit in his hand and raised his head to look forward.    

    

He immediately saw the woman in front of him looking in his direction. When the woman saw Yang Ying raise his head, she smiled faintly.    

    

Yang Ying was very shocked, then he stared blankly in front of him. At this moment, he thought of Junior Sister Ji.    

    

"Junior Sister Ji," Yang Ying unconsciously muttered.    

    

From the moment Peak Lord Lee told him Ji Xue would come, he had been quietly paying attention. However, he never expected Ji Xue to appear in front of him in such a way.    

    

He had thought that Ji Xue might have come from a wealthy family. But he had never associated Ji Xue with the princess of Yaen Country.    

    

Ji Xue covered her mouth and smiled when she saw Yang Ying's expression. She slowly came in front of him and bowed to him. "Senior Brother Yang, long time no see. How are you? "    

    

When Yang Ying heard this gentle greeting, he instantly came back to his senses. He bowed to Ji Xue in front of him and a strange expression appeared on his face.    

    

He subconsciously said to Ji Xue, "I am very good. Junior Sister Ji, how are you?"    

    

Immediately, he seemed to have reacted and his face turned slightly red. He shook his head and lightly sighed, "Junior Sister Ji, you hid it really well."    

    

"Senior Brother Yang, I did not mean to hide it from you." A complicated expression flashed across Ji Xue's face.    

    

Actually, she still had something that she did not say. She was afraid that after she revealed her identity as a princess, Yang Ying would distance himself from her.    

    

Since young, Ji Xue had seen many people complimenting and currying favor with her. But those who truly treated her well were extremely few.    

    

That was why she concealed her identity when she went to the Green Cloud Sect. It was also because of this that she didn't dare to tell Yang Ying her true identity.    

    

Ji Xue originally thought that after a few more days, when Yang Ying's strength became stronger, she would tell him her true identity.    

    

She even thought of one thing. If Yang Ying cared, she would not want this princess identity anymore.    

    

Ji Xue just looked at Yang Ying like this, as if there was only her and him in this hall.    

    

King Yaen Zhao saw that the atmosphere in the hall was a little heavy and coughed lightly, "Xue, come here and sit!"    

    

Ji Xue looked at Yang Ying firmly. She saw that he did not look at her for a long time and felt a little disappointed.    

    

"Xue, sit over here!" King Yaen Zhao's voice was heard again.    

    

Ji Xue was helpless. She could only follow what King Yaen Zhao said and slowly start to turn around.    

    

At this moment, Yang Ying slowly raised his head. His eyes were full of determination. "Junior Sister Ji, don't worry!"    

    

As he spoke, his hand touched his waist.    

    

There was a blue Lotus Bag with a Roc embroidered on it.    

    

Ji Xue had already turned her head when Yang Ying called out her name.    

    

When she heard Yang Ying's words and saw his actions, her face flushed red. Her bright eyes were filled with tears.    

    

Only then did she raise her head and not let her tears fall. She had already smiled.    

    

Her smile bloomed like a peony flower. This made Yang Ying inexplicably feel a sense of satisfaction in his heart.    

    

If he could see her smile in this lifetime, he would also feel that it was not bad.    

    

Yang Ying suddenly realized that he had already fallen in love with Ji Xue.    

    

Ji Xue stared at Yang Ying for a long time before she turned around and walked towards the top of the gathering hall.    

    

She came to the right side of King Yaen Zhao and a servant had already prepared her utensils. She bowed to him and said, "Father, hello."    

    

"Sit!" King Yaen Zhao looked at Ji Xue and found that her expression was very happy. He immediately smiled and nodded at her.    

    

Ji Xue got up, went to her table and sat down.    

    

The banquet continued. King Yaen Zhao raised his wine glass and laughed loudly, "Everyone, she is my daughter Ji Xue. She came to Green Cloud Sect to study at the beginning of this year. I would like to thank Sect Leader Qing Hongzi and Peak Lord Lee! "    

    

Sect Leader Qing Hongzi and Peak Lord Lee also stood up and indicated to King Yaen Zhao. Then, the three of them drank a cup.    

    

Ji Xue slowly stood up, and she also raised the wine cup and said, "Sect Leader Qing Hongzi, Master, elders and senior brothers and sisters, I am here to express my gratitude to you!"    

    

As she spoke, she deliberately turned around to look at Yang Ying. She saw that he was looking at her at this moment. She smiled and raised her wine cup towards him. Only then did she finish the wine in the cup.    

    

The young generation in the hall all drank the wine in one gulp. Sect Master and the family leaders of the various sects also took a small sip.    

    

Everyone in the hall sat down, and everyone began to discuss amongst themselves.    

    

At this moment, one person stood up and looked at Ji Xue. He found that Ji Xue did not look at him but was still looking in Yang Ying's direction.    

    

Immediately, he left his table and went to the middle of the hall. He bowed to King Yaen Zhao.    

    

"King, I am Sun Wenhwa of Sun family. Today, there is wine and meat, but no one is dancing! Why don't I find someone in this arena and dance with me!"
