Peerless Taoist

A large round table sat around a dozen youths. These young people all wore bright clothes and had confident smiles on their faces. They seemed to be chatting and laughing, and from time to time, bursts of laughter could be heard. Behind this group of young men, there were many guards protecting them. This showed that they were of noble status.    

According to the rules of the Lu Family's birthday banquet, guards were not qualified to enter. However, this was not absolute. There were some people with high status. Even if they brought the guards in, the Lu Family would not be able to say anything.    

"I heard that the Supreme Elder of the birthday banquet held by the Lu Family is only a Human Immortal's cultivation level? Hehe, this world has really changed. A mere Human Immortal cultivation level isn't even qualified to pull a carriage for me."    

The young man sitting at the top seat at the north side said with an arrogant expression.    

This young man was wearing a red robe embroidered with pythons and a jade belt tied around his waist. He was extremely wealthy. His name was Zhao Yuanhao, and he was the Crown Prince.    

There were many royal families in the Imperial Capital. Although Prince Jing and Prince Kang had left the Imperial Capital, there were still a large number of royal families that remained in the Imperial Capital. The heir to the throne was the only remaining one.    

A young man beside him quickly whispered, "Your Highness, please do not publicize this matter! This Human Immortal... is that grandfather! "    

"Hehe! I am a prince and prince, a member of the royal family. Why would I be afraid of him?"    

Zhao Yuanhao said arrogantly, "I'll put it this way today. Even if he comes here personally, I'm not afraid!"    

"Your Highness is mighty!"    

The surrounding people raised their wine glasses and praised him.    

Those who were able to gather around Zhao Yuanhao were all scions of noble families.    

They had received orders from their families and had no choice but to participate in this birthday banquet.    

However, these people were not interested in attending the birthday banquet, so they simply found a place to drink in silence.    

Zhao Yuanhao drank a few glasses of wine and his face was slightly smoked. Suddenly, he saw Lu Gaojie beside Zheng Siming and frowned.    

"Little Zheng, this junior sister of yours is really cold and aloof. She actually did not say a word from the beginning to the end. Is she looking down on me?"    

Zheng Siming could be considered a member of the Zheng family.    

However, in Zhao Yuanhao's mouth, he was like a servant, not receiving the slightest bit of respect.    

Zheng Siming hurriedly smiled and said, "She came from a small place and has never seen such a big scene. She's a little afraid of strangers."    

After saying that, Zheng Siming berated Lu Gaojie. "Junior Sister Lu, didn't you hear what His Highness said? Hurry up and accompany His Highness for a drink!"    

Lu Gaojie frowned slightly and said coldly, "Senior Brother Zheng, I spent money to buy an invitation. I'm not here to accompany you!"    

Although the Lu Family had sent a large number of invitations, there were too many disciples in the Jade Cauldron Academy. The invitation had just been sent out and it was snatched away.    

When Lu Gaojie heard the news, the invitations were already open.    

Helpless, Lu Gaojie only had to use various means to get an invitation from Zheng Siming.    

That day in the Treasure Tower, Lu Yu saved her once.    

Lu Gaojie was unable to enter the palace, but this time at Lu Yu's grandfather's birthday, she also wanted to come in and express her gratitude.    

However, she did not expect that after Lu Gaojie entered the birthday banquet, he would be pulled over by Zheng Siming.    

"He's quite arrogant and interesting."    

Zhao Yuanhao sized up Lu Gaojie from head to toe and gradually became somewhat unscrupulous.    

He, Zhao Yuanhao, had seen too many ordinary rouge powder. It was rare to see a pure white jade-like lady like Lu Gaojie. Zhao Yuanhao couldn't help but feel slightly moved.
