Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!

Chapter 2116: Sage Awakened on the Altar vs. Tomb-Raiding Woman (Part 11)

On the Tianxuan Continent, martial arts reign supreme, and family status is also quite important.

A young Martial Artist like Huang Bing, with her outstanding talent and a powerful family, should have been respected and adored wherever she went.

Unfortunately, her infatuation with the Clan Leader of the Ancient Mystic Fox Clan became a widely known scandal. Everyone knew she would do anything for love.

Such is the way of the world; ordinary people envy such Heavenly Proud Daughters as Huang Bing, yet secretly harbor rejection and jealousy.

Upon learning that this Heavenly Proud Daughter was willing to lower herself for an outsider, these people inevitably felt a sense of anger at her perceived squandering of potential.

It was as if Huang Bing’s actions were unforgivably wrong.

However, in truth, what does it matter what Huang Bing does?

These people merely seek to satisfy themselves with the illusion of being superior to Huang Bing in certain aspects.

Thus, they subconsciously reject and disdain her, as if doing so might elevate their own perceived nobility.

Such people...

Most likely have no real ability, and can only seek solace in belittling others.

Gu Shengyin had no intention of quarreling with such people, and with a slight movement of her steps, she entered Huang Bing’s inner chamber.

Though the maids’ mindset was indeed laughable, Gu Shengyin also held a certain disdain for Huang Bing’s actions.

If you truly like someone, pursue them openly and confidently, without concern for others’ opinions.

However, is the Phoenix Family truly unable to afford even an estate within Westwind City?

Must they cause such a commotion that the entire city knows, and still have to reside within another family’s domain?

Huang Bing had just finished changing into a new gown.

This time, it was a light yellow gauze dress, a lively color that highlighted her radiance and charm.

Unexpectedly, a cold voice echoed in her ear: "Huang Bing?"

Huang Bing swiftly raised her head, Mystic Qi surging to its Peak within her body.

She turned to face a cloaked figure she hadn’t noticed entering the room, her expression full of vigilance: "Who are you?"

Seeing her seemingly disorganized yet potentially offensive and defensive stance, Gu Shengyin’s displeasure subsided somewhat.

Although she lacked clarity in certain aspects, at least she had not been complacent in her cultivation.

Without speaking, Gu Shengyin tossed out a token.

Huang Bing instinctively caught it, and upon seeing the characters on the token, she trembled.

Ancestral Phoenix Order!

Within the entire Phoenix Family clan, there are less than five Ancestral Phoenix Orders.

Huang Bing knows that the Clan Leader and the Great Elder each have one.

The rest are unknown.

But she knows the family discipline: possession of the Ancestral Phoenix Order is equivalent to seeing the Clan Leader, requiring full cooperation from all family members.

She was unaware that the Ancestral Phoenix Order in Gu Shengyin’s hand had been given by Ancestor Huang He for her use in external affairs.

Huang Bing immediately adopted a respectful demeanor and spoke: "This..."

She glanced at Gu Shengyin’s form, from which no features could be discerned, and lowered her head: "What might Your Excellency request of a junior?"

Gu Shengyin glanced at her, speaking calmly: "There is no request. I merely came to see for myself what the much-discussed Miss Huang Bing from Westwind City is like."

Her voice was clear yet severe, reminiscent of the autumn winds passing desolately.

Though not grandiose in sound, it carried an inherent chill that penetrated to the bones.

It was a woman’s voice.

Huang Bing was momentarily stunned but quickly reacted to what the other had said.𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
