Chapter 1580
"Originally, I was accompanying Grandpa and the others. But Brother Gu Jun and his friends arrived, so I came to host them," Zhu Yanyi said honestly. "By the way, Brother Gu Jun told me that people from Zihua, Taiji, Shaolin, and Emei will also come. Do you know about this?" Zhu Yanyi knew that if these sects made any moves, Yan Aohan would definitely know.
"It’s fine. They are here to ask for your help, so don’t worry. If they are rude, just slap their faces. I will take responsibility for any consequences," Yan Aohan said domineeringly.
Zhu Yanyi laughed heartily and nodded. "You said it. It’s settled then."
Yan Aohan hummed. It wasn’t a big deal, so he didn’t worry.
Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan exchanged a smile, told Gu Jun and the others to make themselves at home, and returned to the private room.
Most of the people in the private room were elders. Old Master Yan and Madam Yan were also there. However, Yan Huajun and the others had all gone to the main hall. As Old Master Yan said, going to the main hall would at least help cheer for the banquet.
Zhu Yanyi couldn’t figure out where this reason for "cheering" came from. Of course, she kept this thought to herself to avoid embarrassing Old Master Yan.
More and more guests arrived. Special staff were responsible for reception, arranging guests into corresponding areas.
Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan could see everything and hear the outside noise through the live broadcast.
"Life is really getting better and better," Mr. Hua said, looking at the scene on the TV with emotion.
Mr. Ye laughed. "You’re right. This kind of life is good. It shows that true peace has arrived."
Zhu Yanyi smiled and said, "Everyone, I need to go out again. Some special guests have arrived."
The special guests Zhu Yanyi mentioned were the sect guests Gu Jun had talked about. Ordinary people couldn’t really host them. Not to mention their strange costumes alone.
Yan Aohan said to Zhu Yanyi, "I’ll go with you."
The two came out again. The special staff didn’t know their origins at first. Seeing Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan come out, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Yanyi let them leave first, then looked at the newcomers.
There were twelve people in total. Judging by their clothes, Zhu Yanyi determined that three people came from each sect.
"Hello, everyone," Zhu Yanyi greeted.
"Hello, Little Divine Doctor." It seemed they had done their homework before coming. However, their demeanor seemed a bit arrogant. Of course, this couldn’t be blamed on them; after all, they came from sects.
Zhu Yanyi nodded with a smile. "Won’t you introduce yourselves?"
A person in a purple robe with black patterns spoke first. "Hello, Little Divine Doctor. My name is Ziji Xiong. This is Chen Zhenying and Wang Lei. We three are disciples of the Zihua Sect."
"I am Lu Wuji. These are my junior brothers Chen Wuwei and Ma Wuheng. We three are disciples of the Taiji Sect," a young man in Taiji uniform introduced.
"I am Monk Wuwen. These are Wunian and Wuchen. We three belong to Shaolin," a monk in gray martial arts clothes said.
"My name is Zi Xiao. These are my junior sisters Zi Xia and Zi Ni. We three come from Emei," said the three, all wearing modified Hanfu that looked more elegant.
"Welcome. I am Zhu Yanyi. This is my fiancé, Yan Aohan. I wonder what brings you here today?" Zhu Yanyi never followed the script.
If others saw the people from these four sects, they would treat them very warmly. But for Zhu Yanyi, if she treated them warmly at this moment, she would be lowering herself below them. So she couldn’t treat them warmly yet. Instead, she had to make them unclear about her intentions.
"Little Divine Doctor, please forgive us for coming uninvited. We heard that you are holding a happy event at your home today, so we specially came to join the fun," Lu Wuji said.
Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. "I see. Actually, if you had entered the secular world earlier and given notice, we would have sent invitations long ago. We mainly didn’t know when you would enter the secular world."
Zhu Yanyi spoke calmly. She already knew from Yan Aohan that they had entered the secular world long ago. But she deliberately said this to remind them. After all, they had entered the secular world quietly. If Yan Aohan hadn’t had people watching them, they wouldn’t have known.
In Zhu Yanyi’s view, entering the secular world was a good thing. It helped improve the disciples’ experience. But there was no need to do it secretly, as if afraid of being held accountable.
So Zhu Yanyi really didn’t like their behavior. For their visit this time, she naturally wanted to point it out deliberately.
The disciples from the four sects had been out of the secular world for too long. They felt a bit embarrassed. Indeed, entering the secular world was not something shameful. Generally, there was no need to hide it.
Wuwen coughed. "Little Divine Doctor, please excuse us."
Zhu Yanyi raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn’t mean to press further, just smiled. "Please follow me. Several people from the Sage Academy have already arrived."
The disciples from the four sects were not surprised. Zi Xiao said, "Then we trouble you to lead the way, Little Divine Doctor."
Zhu Yanyi led them to Gu Jun’s area. Gu Jun was not surprised to see the people from the four sects. She had already received news that they would come, so she just bowed and said, "You’ve arrived."
"Hello, Brother Gu." Each sect had its own etiquette, so they used their respective sect’s greetings.
Zhu Yanyi smiled. "Please sit here first. Help yourselves to whatever you want to eat. There are both meat and vegetarian dishes. Don’t be polite."
"Little Divine Doctor, please go busy yourself," everyone said in unison.
Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan exchanged a smile and left the area.
On the way back to the private room, Zhu Yanyi said to Yan Aohan, "It seems they are really very polite."
"Of course they must be polite. They have something to ask of you," Yan Aohan mentioned this issue again.
Zhu Yanyi looked at Yan Aohan. "What happened?"
"The leader of the Zihua Sect accidentally went astray in his martial arts practice and suffered from deviation of qi. He is now paralyzed in bed," Yan Aohan said with a smile. Yan Aohan had deep knowledge of such matters.
Zhu Yanyi chuckled. "I see. But since the leader of the Zihua Sect has a problem, why did the other three sects come? To join the fun?"
"More or less. Mainly, they want to make friends with you," Yan Aohan answered with a smile.
