Chapter 362: Concealing One's Edge
"The Que Religion Saintess hosting a banquet..."
Chen Qing murmured softly, closing the invitation.
This matter was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
His thoughts raced.
"If I don't go, it would instead seem suspicious and invite speculation."
"But if I go, I must be extremely cautious and not reveal the slightest flaw, especially regarding the jade pendant in my chest. I need to completely isolate it with the Cosmic Myriad Manifestations Diagram to prevent any aura from leaking out."
He put away the invitation, turned, and returned to his quiet chamber to continue meditating and circulating his energy.
The next evening, at Star-Plucking Pavilion atop Guest Receiving Peak's highest point, lights blazed brilliantly like a pearl suspended above the sea of clouds.
The pavilion had three levels with flying eaves and intricate brackets, carved beams and painted rafters. Tonight it served as the venue for the Que Religion Saintess's private banquet and had been fully prepared.
