Everybody turned to glance at the girl, but they all dismissed her as just another immortal official from the Immortal Rainbow Palace. She walked into the hall with a pure and innocent expression, and boldly assessed everybody in the hall.

“Whoa, so these are the various emperors of the various countries,” she suddenly said. Yet, her gaze landed on Shen Ying, who had been chewing on her fruits. She started, then her eyes flashed. She walked to Shen Ying and stood in front of her. “Eh, there’s even a Big Sister here!”

Her eyes widened as she looked Shen Ying from head to toe. As if she had known Shen Ying for all her life, she asked, “Big Sister, Big Sister, which country are you the emperor of?” She subconsciously reached out to hold Shen Ying’s hand.

Yi Qing frowned and stepped forward to block her. “My Master is having her tea. Don’t be rude.”

“Ah!” The girl seemed to just notice the cup of tea in Shen Ying’s hand. She stepped backward and sheepishly stuck her tongue out. “I’m sorry, Big Sister! I was too excited when I saw you. I didn’t notice that you were having tea.”

Shen Ying did not respond. She just looked down and took a sip of her tea.

“Big Sister, why aren’t you saying anything?” The girl tilted her head and continued to study Shen Ying closely. “I’m just curious as to why there is a big sister here amidst the various emperors of the countries. That’s right, my name is Hui Ling. How about you?”

“Hui Ling!” Just as she finished speaking, a man in a white robe rushed into the hall. He bowed to the emperors and looked frustratedly at the girl. “How could you run in here? This is where the various emperors have their meeting.”

“Senior Brother Lu Ming, I just got a little curious, that’s all.” The girl pouted, but there was no hint of guilt on her face. Instead, she tugged at the man’s sleeve and said excitedly, “Senior Brother, look! I discovered a big sister amongst all the emperors. But it’s too bad Big Sister isn’t telling me which country she’s the emperor of.”

Lu Ming paused and looked at Shen Ying. He seemed to have sensed her cultivation level and started. Then, he held the little girl back. “Junior Sister, be careful with your words.”

“I’m not being careless!” Hui Ling was indignant. She turned back to Shen Ying. “Senior Brother, how could you lie to me? You said that there were no female immortals who became emperors so far in Feng Cang continent. There’s one right here!”

“Junior Sister,” Lu Ming mumbled awkwardly. He shot an apologetic look at Shen Ying and turned to face Hui Ling. He was not reproachful at all; instead, he addressed her with a certain affection. “This is not an emperor. Be good, follow me back.”

“No!” Hui Ling was startled. Her eyes widened, as if she did not believe what her senior brother was saying. She turned to look at Shen Ying and tutted, saying, “If Big Sister isn’t an emperor, then why is she sitting here? Isn’t this place only for emperors to sit? Big Sister, please get up quickly! This is against the rules.”

As she said this, the expressions of everybody around her changed, especially Lonemoon and Yi Qing. Even the various emperors seemed to be entertained by what was happening. They were already curious about who the woman was; they just did not dare to ask.

Shen Ying, who was still sitting on the chair, continued to munch on her fruits as if she could not hear anything.

Lu Ming jumped, frightened. Junior Sister could not tell, but he could – the woman looked like a mere Earth Immortal, but the man behind her was obviously a Young Emperor. He spoke more sternly to Hui Ling, “Junior Sister, watch your words!”

Hui Ling did not get the hint. She lowered her voice and whined, “I’m not wrong...”

“Immortal child, you’re really good at talking!” Lonemoon laughed mirthlessly and stepped forward. “May I please ask you where it is written that only emperors can sit here? Where in the rules and regulations of Immortal Rainbow Palace is there such a rule? Why can’t the sect master of my Invincible Sect sit here? Or are you saying... Celestial Emperor personally invited the few of us here so that my sect master would stand as if being punished?”

Nobody in the immortal or mortal realm dared to be rude to Shen Ying. How dare this little green wretch take on this tone with her?

“Well...” Lu Ming’s tone became laced with fear. He had no choice but to cup his fists and bow. “My Junior Sister is young and does not know any better. She has said something to offend you. Please be magnanimous and forgive her this once.” He had no idea that this was the Invincible Sect that the Celestial Emperor was talking about.

He paused, then turned to shoot a look at the girl beside him. His tone was extremely fierce this time. “Hui Ling!”

The girl was pouting even more now, yet she still did not look in the least bit guilty. Instead, she looked incredibly wronged. She grabbed Lu Ming’s hand and swung it haughtily. “Senior Brother! I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”Why are you being so petty?

Lonemoon’s expression darkened. Who exactly was she apologising to?

Lu Ming turned to look at Shen Ying, who still had not moved. “Sect Master, my junior sister is only a young immortal. She overstepped her boundaries earlier. Please be magnanimous and forgive her?”

Shen Ying raised her head and glanced at the innocent Lu Ming. She paused and then nodded curtly. “Alright!”

Lu Ming heaved a sigh of relief and started to say something.

Shen Ying suddenly stood up, raised the cup of tea in her hands and tilted it, dousing the girl with tea. It was obvious that the girl had not expected she would do something like this. She stared blankly at Shen Ying, tea dripping down her face, tea leaves caught in her hair.

Everybody was stunned.

Shen Ying turned around to face Lonemoon and pouted, imitating Hui Ling. She said in a robotic voice, “Father Niu, I’m sorry! I didn’t do it on purpose.”

Lonemoon recovered from his shock after a second, then understood. He cupped his fists and faced Lu Ming, saying in the exact same tone he used, “Fellow Immortal, my sect master is young and does not know any better. She knows she has done something wrong. Please forgive her this once.”

Lu Ming: “...”

Hui Ling: “...”

The crowd: “...”

Two seconds later...

Pui...

“Hahaha...” Xun Shu collapsed with maniacal laughter onto the table. He finally understood. Who in the upper realm was actually still young? Shen Ying was just showing them how ridiculous they sounded.

This slap was really...

He really would not be able to take this excuse of being young and ignorant seriously again.

Hui Ling could tell that they were mocking her. She immediately felt shame and irritation. Her face flushed with the mixture of emotions. Still dripping, she turned and ran out of the hall.

“Junior Sister...” Lu Ming shouted after her. He shot a glare at Lonemoon and Shen Ying, then chased after his junior sister.

Lonemoon gave Shen Ying a thumbs up and finally felt the anger dissipate. He was already getting irritated at the little girl. She was obviously taking advantage of Shen Ying, despising her for being a mere Earth Immortal. It was obvious that she was implying that Shen Ying had no right to be sitting here.

A bunch of ignorant fellas. If Shen Ying is not fit to sit here, nobody in the immortal realm would be.

“Well done. I’ll allow you to add dishes for your next meal.”

More dishes!

(? o ?)

Shen Ying tilted her head and she said in the same robotic voice, “Father Niu, what are you saying? I didn’t do anything at all!”

“Hey, hey, hey... You’re addicted to acting like that green tea?”

“I’m telling the truth.”

“That’s enough! Stop imitating her! You’re nothing like her at all. Forget the tone – even your expression is so different!”

“You’re horrible! Stop bullying me! Open brackets, shy shy shy, close brackets.”

“Are you narrating your own freaking expression?”

“I’ve added brackets!”

“Brackets your ass! Do you think you’re sending a text message here? Brackets don’t serve to change your expression a single bit!”

“Oh.”

“Wait! I did not tell you to make a stupid expression. Put your hands down!”

“...”
