Chapter 1474 - 1473: Jade Maiden Peak
The last group to arrive were the people from Jade Maiden Peak, and Su Yang personally went out to greet them.
There was no other choice—Jade Maiden Peak was entirely composed of women, and they had lived there in isolation for many years, rarely interacting with the outside world. This had led to a certain amount of resistance toward outsiders. Moreover, the elders of Jade Maiden Peak were notoriously petty, and Su Yang would much rather avoid a conflict with this group.
Furthermore, since Hu Xixi had joined Jade Maiden Peak, Su Yang hoped to establish good relations with them, at least ensuring that Hu Xixi could enjoy better treatment there.
The leader of the Jade Maiden Peak delegation was an elderly woman in her fifties. Judging from her appearance, she must have been a stunning beauty in her youth.
In truth, those of her strength could have easily used their cultivation to restore their youthful appearance. Take Huo Yuanzhen, for example—despite being over a hundred years old, she still looked like she could pass for Huo Qianfang’s sister.
Yet this particular woman had chosen not to, making her stand out as something of an exception.
This woman was named Lin Xuanyi. She held a prominent position within Jade Maiden Peak and was one of its three great elders. Hu Xixi, as it happened, was her disciple—the very same who, during the North Mountain Summit incident, had spoken out against the Medicine Sect and rescued Hu Xixi.
This time, Lin Xuanyi also brought Hu Xixi along. From the looks of it, she was planning to leverage Hu Xixi’s relationship with Su Yang to negotiate for the three elixir formulas.
Thankfully, upon arriving, Hu Xixi simply greeted Su Yang without saying much else, ensuring she didn’t put him in an awkward position.
