Pei Yue was the most doted-on legitimate daughter of the Pei family. She had been spoiled since childhood, and on top of her natural talent, her sect treated her like a treasure too.
She was one of the most honored female cultivators in the world. Matchmakers came to her door in droves, and countless families hoped to arrange a marriage alliance with her.
Pei Yue had someone she liked, but he came from a humble family and was always distant toward her.
To keep her feelings from causing him trouble, whenever someone proposed a match for her, she always said:
"Is this person as powerful as the Immortal Venerable?"
"Does this person have as prestigious a background as the Immortal Venerable?"
"Is he as handsome as the Immortal Venerable?"
Those under the Immortal Venerable Luo Heng wanted to teach this girl a lesson for daring to make wild claims about their master, and for having no sense of what was appropriate.
Luo Heng had initially felt the same way.
That day happened to be the Shangyuan Lantern Festival. The world was radiant with splendor. The woman holding a rabbit-shaped lantern looked utterly guileless, her jade-white face glowing in the colorful light, bright as the most dazzling sunrise.
Luo Heng's hand tightened slightly inside his sleeve.
"Ignore her," the Immortal Venerable said.
So Pei Yue became even more brazen. Everyone else who dared gossip about the Immortal Venerable either stopped or disappeared, but no matter what she said, his people never reacted.
Someone close to the Immortal Venerable flattered him: "This young lady must really like you."
"Mm, I know." Luo Heng's lips curved slightly.
Luo Heng personally visited Luoyun Sect, thinking Pei Yue would be delighted if he showed himself.
It was the day of Chaoyun Sect's grand gathering.
When people found out Pei Yue had given Zhao Jingyuan a sachet, they were all astonished.
"Senior Sister likes Jingyuan!"
In front of everyone, Zhao Jingyuan returned the sachet to Pei Yue and said, "I am devoted to cultivation and have no interest in anything else. I hope you won't disturb my cultivation, Senior Sister."
Pei Yue was mortified and utterly humiliated, and worst of all, her heart ached unbearably.
Just as she wished the ground would swallow her up, a figure stepped into the crowd, with an otherworldly face and an unmatched bearing. He picked up the sachet from the ground and said, "If you gave it to me, I would cherish it."
Pei Yue stared at the Immortal Venerable, stunned.
Everyone around them forgot to bow. "???"
Wait, what is that supposed to mean?!
You're the Immortal Venerable, the supreme and unparalleled Immortal Venerable. Why are you spouting lines like a scheming green tea?!
Pei Yue's eyes widened.
She'd talked about the Immortal Venerable every day, and now she'd actually summoned him?
Supreme and unparalleled × peerless elegance
