Love Above All Chapter 175

The wedding can be disrupted, but if Ah Qing no longer likes her, what use is ruining the wedding itself.

"Junior sister, if it really doesn’t work out, just marry me. I will reluctantly accept you and take care of you for life," Mi Xi joked with a smile.

Lan Xi slapped him on the forehead, "Senior brother, where’s your face! I, as Your Highness, am number one in the world, and still you reluctantly! Don’t you know if I’m even willing to marry?"

Mi Xi rubbed his aching head and let out a cry, "Junior sister, you’re being too disrespectful to your elders this way."

Lan Xi’s figure flickered and then disappeared.

Phoenix Clan, Nie Shu’s birthday.

Lan Xi selected a bottle of Jade Dew from the Goddess Palace.

This Jade Dew has life-saving effects for ordinary immortals. Even for someone on the brink of death, consuming it can heal bones and extend life.

When Mi Xi learned that Lan Xi took out this item, he couldn’t help but curse, "Junior sister, you’re being too extravagant. It takes you ten years to refine just one bottle of Jade Dew. That Nie Shu is originally your love rival, yet you’re giving her such a precious gift."

"I like it!" Lan Xi sat in the sedan chair, her expression sullen.

Mi Xi felt a pang of envy, as Jade Dew is difficult to obtain, and he had only collected three bottles over the years.

Other immortal families, upon acquiring it, keep it for worship and wouldn’t use it lightly unless faced with a life-threatening situation.

Mi Xi rummaged through his storage belt and took out a Luminous Pearl, saying to Lan Xi, "Junior sister, exchange it. You give this as a gift, and the Jade Dew for me."

"Get lost!" Lan Xi squinted her eyes, she calculated in her mind.

Just a bottle of Jade Dew, she had plenty of them.

It’s just that she didn’t want to waste it on people she didn’t find pleasing.

Mi Xi hugged his fan, crying in a corner. "Junior sister, when did you become fiercer than a tigress."

Lan Xi got a headache from his noise and took out ten bottles of Jade Dew from the Blood Jade Space, throwing them to Mi Xi, "Take these, buy your silence."

Upon seeing them, Mi Xi immediately shut his mouth.

That was all of Lan Xi’s stock!

She gave it all to him, junior sister is simply too generous.

Ancient Phoenix Clan.

Nie Shu is the youngest grandson among them, knowledgeable, gentle, and kind.

The elders had meticulously prepared for her birthday long ago.

Moreover, they also invited many from other clans to celebrate together.

Of course, they didn’t invite Lan Xi.

After all, in the heavens, Lan Xi holds a noble status, and after becoming a demon, her temperament has become even colder.

All invitations were refused, and over time, no one dared to invite this elder again.

Lan Xi went very early.

When the Ancient Phoenix Clan received news of her coming, even the clan leader personally came to welcome her.

Lan Xi carried her dignity and sat in an important position at the birthday banquet.

Soon after, Crown Prince Ya also arrived.

This surprised Lan Xi very much.

She thought that in such a setting, Crown Prince Ya wouldn’t come.

Although the status of the Ancient Phoenix Clan is high, it wouldn’t necessitate the Heavenly Clan’s Crown Prince coming personally.

Lan Xi remained expressionless.

Regarding Crown Prince Ya, she didn’t feel she owed him anything.

Their only connection was those years in Taibai Hall.

From the very beginning, she owed him nothing.

The engagement and the breaking of it were both acts of fate.

Quan Shaoqing arrived after Crown Prince Ya.

When he saw her, there was a noticeable hint of surprise in his eyes.

After everyone exchanged greetings.

They took their respective seats.

Under the clan leader’s instructions, Nie Shu came out to offer a toast to everyone, given that those present held extraordinary statuses.

Attending her birthday was a great honor for the Ancient Phoenix Clan.

As Nie Shu approached Lan Xi to offer her a toast.

Lan Xi gauged the young girl in front of her, red lips and white teeth, delicate features—she might not have a beauty that could overturn a country, but she had an innocent charm, just at a delicate age.

"Thanks for Your Highness Lan Xi’s generous gift. My family and I are immensely grateful," Nie Shu said, having heard from the clan leader that Your Highness Lan Xi had gifted Jade Dew.

A life-saving Spiritual Medicine.

Lan Xi held her wine cup and glanced at Quan Shaoqing, nodding, "You’re welcome! Now, drink this jar of wine."

Her words caught everyone present by surprise.

Lan Xi actually wanted Nie Shu to drink an entire jar of wine; wasn’t she intentionally putting the girl in a difficult spot?

Today is her birthday.

Lan Xi calmly took out that Blood Jade Fan and said, "I, Lan Xi, am impartial, and now I’m eighty thousand years old. I once accepted a student, but in recent years the student independently made a name for themselves. So I remain single. I’ve recently thought of taking on a new student. I just don’t know how well this little girl can handle alcohol."

The meaning of her words was now clear.

Lan Xi enjoys drinking, so any student she takes on must also be able to drink and accompany her.

At first, Nie Shu didn’t quite understand.

The clan leader immediately stood up, pulling Nie Shu and quickly said, "Shushu, show Your Highness Lan Xi your ability to drink."

The Phoenix Clan cannot be drunk by a jar of wine.

Under the clan leader’s watchful eye, Nie Shu forcefully drank down the entire jar of wine.

After the jar of wine, the little girl was completely drunk.

The old clan leader of the Ancient Phoenix looked at Lan Xi, "Your Highness, the girl’s talents are humble. We hope she’s worthy of Your Highness’s favor?"

"She’s not bad!" A bright light shone in Lan Xi’s eyes as she looked at Nie Shu, "As long as she’s willing, she will be my student from now on."

The old clan leader, along with the Phoenix family members, urged Nie Shu to kneel and express their gratitude.

In this life, to be Lan Xi’s pupil is a great blessing for the family.

Nie Shu, in a daze, became Lan Xi’s pupil.

"Thank you, master, for your great kindness. Nie Shu is immensely grateful." Nie Shu slurred, unaware of her own words.

Lan Xi nodded and, with a wave, allowed Nie Shu to stand up.

Sitting in her seat, she calmly looked over at Quan Shaoqing and addressed the Ancient Phoenix Clan, "As my disciple, one must follow my rules. Before reaching a hundred thousand years, one cannot discuss marriage. Even if one wishes to marry, my permission is required."

"This..."

These conditions seemed somewhat strict, but not entirely unmanageable.

Since joining a sect, one naturally cannot marry freely during their disciplinary period.

However, Nie Shu was already engaged.

"What, do the elders find these terms hard to comply with?" Lan Xi asked with a tranquil expression, "I won’t put anyone in a difficult position. If you can’t comply, let’s pretend I never came today."

"No, no, no!" The elder quickly explained, "Nie Shu’s marriage to the Human Emperor was long agreed upon. How should we decide on this?"

"Here’s the plan: if the Human Emperor is eager to wed, I won’t stand in the way of true love. But if he can wait until Shushu has finished her training, that would be acceptable," Lan Xi replied.

Mi Xi thought Lan Xi made the worst decision of her life.

If she took Nie Shu as her student, wasn’t it obvious she was going to snatch her students’ fiancé?

If this leaks out, where will she save face?

Did she even consider this?

"Junior sister!" Mi Xi immediately interjected, "I urge you not to impulsively take on students. After all, Nie Shu is engaged. Think it over three times!"

Mi Xi reminded on the side.
