Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)
chapter-834

Wang Fuxiang looked around at the people before saying, "One of the rules of the Guard Ye Banquet is that no one's clothes or accessories can have snake or snake-like patterns. Every guest has to follow this rule. But besides this special rule, have you forgotten about the other rule of this banquet?"

Miao Qi's expression changed.

At that moment, an elegant man took a deep breath and walked through the crowd to Wang Fuxiang. He bowed and said, "Hello, Master."

Xia Chen had seen Wang Fuxiang but did not intend on greeting her.

As the Bamboo Monarch's first disciple, Xia Chen knew that the Bamboo Monarch had been courting Wang Fuxiang.

But as the Bamboo Monarch's disciple and because the Bamboo Monarch's bad luck had come from Wang Fuxiang, Xia Chen, who viewed the Bamboo Monarch as a father, did not like Wang Fuxiang.

Moreover, Wang Fuxiang had been coming up with ways to reject the Bamboo Monarch and never agreed to be together with him.

If Wang Fuxiang denied him when Xia Chen called her Master, she would not be embarrassing Xia Chen but the Bamboo Monarch.

However, Xia Chen knew his Master well and knew that he had to stand up for Wang Fuxiang no matter what.

It was his duty as a disciple.

The way Xia Chen addressed Wang Fuxiang caused a big reaction in the crowd. Even Long Tu and Li Zhen looked shocked.

Xia Chen had always been solemn and helped the Bamboo Monarch to manage the Purple Bamboo Forest.

Now, Xia Chen's words had essentially branded Wang Fuxiang.

He was basically announcing that Wang Fuxiang was the mistress of the Purple Bamboo Forest.

Xia Chen's appearance made Miao Qi's sour countenance drain of color.

Before Wang Fuxiang responded, Xia Chen went on to say, "There are a total of 18 coronation costumes in the Radiance Federation, 13 of which belong to the royal family. The remaining 5 belong to the five Radiance Envoys. Every coronation costume has unique patterns that represent the owner's identity and authority.

"For example, Chief Guard Ye's Night Clear Water Coronation Costume has a body of clear water at night that represents the eternal night. I believe everyone is aware of this. Thus, no one wears clothes with patterns similar to the Night Clear Water Coronation Costume at banquets like the Guard Ye Banquet. Moreover, as a show of respect to Chief Guard Ye, no one tries to recreate the Night Clouds Hundred Beasts patterns on the Night Clear Water Coronation Costume. In fact, everyone stays clear of it."

Xia Chen's words made Miao Qi's face turn even paler.

Every single leader of veteran and top factions looked absolutely astonished.

They all knew why Xia Chen was mentioning this. Initially, they thought that Xia Chen had appeared to brand Wang Fuxiang with her identity as the mistress of the Purple Bamboo Forest.

No one expected that Xia Chen would go on to help Wang Fuxiang fight against Miao Qi.

This move made Miao Qi seem extremely insolent.

Xia Chen stole a look at Wang Fuxiang and noticed that she did not seem to be rejecting the title he had given her. With his worries rested, Xia Chen continued. "Master's coronation costume is the Bamboo Perch Coronation Costume, and the patterns are called the Purple Bamboo coronation patterns. Miao Qi, are those purple bamboo embroidered behind the two goji trees on your purple spirit qi clothes?"

At this point, Xia Chen felt that he had laid good groundwork for Wang Fuxiang and stepped back behind her.

This action made everyone see it as him acknowledging Wang Fuxiang as his elder. Otherwise, the first disciple of the Bamboo Monarch who managed the Purple Bamboo Forest would not have to act in such a humble manner in front of Wang Fuxiang.

Wang Fuxiang felt uncomfortable when Xia Chen called her Master, but she was comforted by what he did for her.

When she had decided to attend the Guard Ye Banquet, she had settled on the status of her relationship with the Bamboo Monarch.

She was now ready to face the feelings between her and the Bamboo Monarch.

She was already old and was no bouncing young girl.

It was extremely difficult to find a real relationship.

The Bamboo Monarch had also said that he would find a way to remove her bad luck and had definitely brought up this issue with the other members of royalty to ask for a solution.

Wang Fuxiang's mind was set. If she could not find a way to remove her bad luck, she would happily sacrifice her life for the Bamboo Monarch.

She was going to wear her favorite jewelry and jump into the Bamboo Monarch's arms.

If she died for him, he would definitely remember her for the rest of his life.

Now that her troubles had cleared, Wang Fuxiang had accepted Xia Chen calling her Master.

She put on a charming smile, turned to the deathly pale Miao Qi who looked pathetic in comparison, and said, "Fu Wenzhu gave me this set of clothes. The large patch of purple bamboo embroidery below the yellow peony patterns used the gold thread from Golden Therach Bamboo. It's the same thread used in the embroidery on Fu Wenzhu's Bamboo Perch Coronation Costume is made from.

"Miao Qi, the faint bamboo stitched on your clothes are so detailed that they're also made from the gold thread from the Golden Therach Bamboo. You must have spent a tidy sum on this set of clothes!

"You actually managed to find Myth Breed Golden Therach Bamboo and extract gold thread from it to embroider purple bamboo that is so similar to those on the Purple Bamboo Coronation Costume.

"Did Fu Wenzhu give you permission to copy the Purple Bamboo Coronation Costume? Or do you hold the coronation patterns in such low regard that you are fine with casually recreating the coronation patterns on the spirit qi clothes that you wear to the Guard Ye Banquet?"

Miao Qi lowered her head, and not a peep was heard from her.

She was well and truly humiliated.

As a Class 4 Creation Master that also came from Connected Beast Park, she even received respect from top factions. Even the leaders of veteran factions had to lower their heads in front of her. Yet, she was now a public joke.

She never expected Wang Fuxiang to attend the Guard Ye Banquet.

It had been a secret that she was the one representing the Miao family at the Guard Ye Banquet, and the decision had only been made after the Miao family had discovered that Wang Fuxiang had rejected the invitation to the Guard Ye Banquet.

Miao Qi knew that if not for Wang Fuxiang, Xia Chen would never have bothered with her.
