Chapter 322 Their Faith Has Returned
Looking at the two figures, one big and one small, Yun Yao couldn't help but chuckle.
"Su Yuchen, why are you arguing with a child? Come on, Qi Mo, let go."
With one disguise after another falling apart, Yun Yao felt that her public image was in jeopardy, so she simply let everyone have their fun.
"Since you're all here, don't leave. Tonight it's my treat, everyone have a great time!" Yun Yao waved her hand, looking incredibly carefree.
Yun Yao's unrestrained behavior was captured by the camera, freezing a stunning moment.
Yun Yao and her group, who were originally going to leave, returned the way they came and held a banquet at Hong Hao's place.
As for the outsiders, Yun Yao erased their memories of witnessing the bloody scene and released them directly.
They must have suffered a lot following that imposter. Now that she's back, she won't let them repeat the same mistakes.
but……
"Miss Yun, can't we just stay with you instead of leaving?" the captain asked cautiously.
Yun Yao hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she agreed to their request.
This day was undoubtedly the most shocking day in the history of the capital.
Back when the imposters were around, these big shots would stay as far away as possible, but now they're all bowing down to a woman.
This, perhaps, is their faith; their faith has returned.
Like a banquet, Yun Yao set up seven or eight tables in the hall. This lively scene made her feel as if she had returned to her time in the Demon Realm ten thousand years ago.
Su Yuchen noticed Yun Yao's dazed expression and placed a piece of pork rib in her bowl.
"Wanwan, what are you thinking about?"
Yun Yao snapped out of her reverie, lowered her eyes, and smiled.
"It's nothing, I just remembered some things from the past."
Seeing her so dejected, Su Yuchen didn't continue the topic.
"Wanwan, from now on we can finally be together openly."
Yun Yao paused in her chopsticks, looking at him with some confusion.
Why do I get the feeling that you're being wronged?
Su Yuchen looks just like a little puppy right now, completely harmless, making people want to rub him without restraint.
"Wanwan, you want me to use my beauty to seduce you?" Su Yuchen's voice was somewhat complaining.
"Cough cough cough-"
Mo Peichen, who was standing to the side, almost choked to death.
What did he hear? Was this guy asking Yun Yao for comfort? I've never seen anything like it!
Ge Beiyao very gentlemanly handed him a glass of water.
"You're welcome."
Mo Peichen: "..." He had no intention of thanking him at all!
Upon hearing Su Yuchen's complaint, Yun Yao's eyes darted away for a moment.
She appeared in front of the camera to tell everyone that Yun Yao was back, and that everyone oppressed by that imposter could start to fight back. Even if they caused the sky to collapse, she could hold it up.
But before that, she absolutely cannot let that imposter get there first, otherwise how can she tell everyone that she's going to cause trouble?
That's why Su Yuchen was brought in, to use his beauty to stall the imposter.
Seeing Su Yuchen's extremely resentful expression, Yun Yao straightened her expression.
"My darling, you are definitely the one who made the greatest sacrifice in this great battle. I am very gratified. I have decided to award you an Outstanding Contribution Award!" Yun Yao raised the wine glass beside her.
"All words of thanks seem too pale; my feelings for you are all in this wine. Cheers, my darling!"
Su Yuchen: "..." Was she just giving me the runaround?
Yun Yao tilted her head back and drank it down, savoring the lingering aroma of the wine in her mouth, feeling extremely content.
Just as the wine glass was set down, a waiter came in to report.
"Miss Yun, Mr. Yun and an old gentleman have arrived."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yao's smile gradually faded, and she raised her hand slightly.
"Let them in."
Everyone at the table noticed the change in Yun Yao's expression and put down their chopsticks.
Yun Zhengfeng and Luo Hong were ushered in by the waiter. Upon seeing the woman sitting at the head of the table, they rushed over.
"Ancestor!"
"Miss Yun Yao!"
Yun Yao glanced at the two of them indifferently, gesturing for them to find seats.
After the two sat down, Yun Yao's complexion returned to normal.
"Everyone, I have something to say." Yun Yao tapped the table.
The noisy and bustling scene suddenly quieted down, and everyone turned to look at the woman who had stood up.
"To treat everyone, I've prepared a seven-day trip to Ling Island. Put aside what you're doing and we're going on vacation," Yun Yao said with a light laugh.
The scene remained quiet, as if no one had yet reacted.
A moment later, the cheers nearly blew the roof off Honghao's house.
However, there was only one person who remained dazed and expressionless throughout, completely out of place in the excited and lively atmosphere.
Yun Yao was incredibly perceptive and naturally noticed her unusual behavior.
He appeared beside her in the blink of an eye, leaned down, and whispered in her ear.
"Bai Li, what are you thinking about?"
Bai Li snapped back to reality, her body trembled, and her eyes reddened.
"Grandpa, I won't be going. Brother Du, he..."
Before she could finish speaking, Yun Yao interrupted her.
"This is a team building activity, and no one can be missing."
"I……"
"Bai Li, trust me."
Yun Yao's eyes were clear, and she gently patted Bai Li's shoulder.
Not only Bai Li, but also Wu Shuo, were clearly not in high spirits.
He didn't react when Yun Yao walked behind him.
A talented weapon maker had his eyes gouged out; how cruel must the perpetrator have been?
"Wu Shuo, what are you thinking about?"
"Thinking about Little Stone."
Because Little Stone was a child, the imposter considered him an insignificant person and kicked him out.
“That child is so young, what if he encounters bad people?” Wu Shuo shook his head, his hands resting on his knees clenched tightly.
Yun Yao was somewhat helpless; Wu Shuo really was a fool!
"Hey, brat, am I just for show?" Yun Yao said, somewhat displeased.
Wu Shuo only realized this belatedly.
Yes, our ancestors were incredibly powerful; how could they not even be able to summon a child?
"Ancestor, I beg you..."
"Shut up."
Wu Shuo tentatively reached out with both hands, trying to pinpoint Yun Yao's exact location.
With Fu Cheng's help, Wu Shuo found Yun Yao. Just as he was about to kneel down, a small hand held his arm.
"There's no need for that. Little Stone is one of my people too."
She's just that protective of her people. Without her approval, no one can take the lives of her subordinates. And even if they do, she'll fight to the death to get them back.
The party lasted until eleven o'clock. Thanks to Yun Yao's promise, everyone felt relieved and had a great time. When it ended, Su Yuchen arranged for his men to take them home.
Yun Yao and Su Yuchen got into the car, and the atmosphere inside was very heavy.
"Wanwan, where are you going?" He knew she wouldn't be going home.
She was the one who laughed the most and was the happiest at the banquet, but she was also the one with the heaviest thoughts.
Among those she had placed under her wing, there was the mastermind who manipulated the imposter to impersonate her. How could she be happy when her closest confidant stabbed her in the back?
Moreover, many people were missing from this banquet.
Ni Du is gone, Xiao Shitou is gone, the entire First Pavilion has not returned, and Jin Huai and Jin Pei have also disappeared...
"Su Yuchen, give me your hand." Yun Yao suddenly said this.
Su Yuchen didn't ask why, he kept the steering wheel in one hand and handed her his right hand.
Yun Yao held his wrist and channeled her spiritual energy into his body to examine him.
After a long while, her voice sounded somewhat puzzled.
"Earth Immortal?" He has already reached the cultivation level of an Earth Immortal!
Is his cultivation like riding a rocket?
However, upon realizing his true identity, Yun Yao felt relieved.
"I broke through today," Su Yuchen said quietly.
