Chapter 12 The Street Vendor Event Begins
Inside Xuanyuan Square.
The sky was ablaze with color, clouds drifted around the mountainside, and towering peaks surrounded the central plaza.
The square was very large, accommodating ten thousand disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect, with many others unable to attend due to other commitments.
Twenty white pillars stand in front of Xuanyuan Square, each carved with an ancient mythical beast.
Standing on the white pillars, looking up at the sky and letting out a long roar, the power of mountains and rivers rushes towards you, making you feel awe.
Large golden characters floated in the air.
The sect leader of Xuanyuan Sect and a dozen elders sat at the top, with the peak masters of each peak in a row below. Strangely, there was an empty seat next to the sect leader.
This shows that the people in the first row have the highest status in the Xuanyuan Sect.
He's called the sect leader, but he looks very young.
There were too many people in the square.
Yun Ci looked around, searching for the location of the inner disciples.
On the square.
Sitting in the very center, Sect Leader Cang Xuan looked at the disciples in the square without saying a word.
The sect leader, radiating authority without anger, sat there with an expression that defied all comprehension.
A voice came from the side, "It's that time of year again for the annual market fair. I wonder what treasures they have this year."
As he spoke, a smile flickered in Elder Huaiyuan's eyes.
The sect leader remained silent.
One of the elders joked, "Does Elder Huaiyuan even have a liking for those disciples' treasures?"
Elder Huaiyuan smiled and remained silent.
As elders of one of the largest sects in the world, they possessed countless rare treasures and naturally looked down on the possessions of their disciples.
However, while the logic is sound, it doesn't sound good when said aloud.
Besides, setting up a stall would be quite fun, wouldn't it?
On the other side, Elder Chengxuan had a serious expression.
Hmph! This kind of market fair is less useful than letting the disciples cultivate more!
However, he didn't say it aloud, since the sect leader had approved the stall arrangement. The sect leader was still there at that moment.
"Elder Chengxuan, judging from your expression, it seems you are dissatisfied with the street vendor association."
An elder sitting in the second seat from the right said quietly.
Upon hearing this, Elder Chengxuan looked at Elder Antong, who had just spoken, and said with a forced smile, "Instead of wasting time on wild guesses, you should drip more Spirit Eye Divine Water, lest you become blind in both mind and eyes."
"you!"
Elder Dark Pupil was about to say something more.
"Isn't Ji Qing coming?" Sect Leader Cang Xuan asked at this moment.
Elder Chengxuan and Elder Antong both fell silent.
The elder on the far left said, "Jiqing didn't say he was coming; he should be at Qingyun Mountain right now."
Sect Leader Cang Xuan thought for a moment and said, "That's true. Ji Qing won't come to this kind of occasion. Then we don't need to wait anymore; it's about to start."
Apart from the disciples who went out on missions and some outer disciples who did odd jobs and stood guard outside the mountain gate, almost all the disciples of Xuanyuan Sect had arrived.
Yun Ci finally managed to squeeze to the front.
The sect has fewer than 5,000 inner disciples, more than 14,000 outer disciples, and only about 20 direct disciples.
The inner disciples moved forward a bit, and once Yun Ci found her spot, she saw Chu Ziming at the very front.
Chu Ziming's face was full of boredom; he couldn't wait any longer. When would it start?
Yun Ci then looked at the other disciples beside him.
"Wow!" Yun Ci was stunned.
Each of them is exceptionally handsome and has an outstanding temperament. With white stripes and purple sleeves, they are all unique and charming.
They're all so beautiful!
Moreover, there are all types, handsome men and beautiful women, it's pleasing to the eye just to look at them.
"Modeled face," Yun Ci thought of this term.
Moreover, in the world of cultivation, before one can pursue immortality, one must undergo a process of cleansing the marrow and purifying the body, resulting in skin as smooth as a peeled egg.
Yun Ci swallowed hard.
Suddenly I saw one of them.
Gudong.
Yun Ci felt as if he had seen a deity.
How can someone look like this?
He could say that this was the most beautiful person he had ever seen.
The boy had a face like jade, a tall and slender figure, and cold, aloof eyes, as if looking down on ants.
Yun Ci was stunned.
Suddenly, those eyes turned to him, staring straight in his direction.
Yun Ci's eyes met hers.
What if you get caught peeping?
Yun Ci chose to pretend nothing happened and acted as if she had seen it by accident.
So he calmly looked away.
Si Qingxuan looked at the boy whose acting was not very good, but didn't care much, and looked away indifferently.
Call ~
Feeling the oppressive gaze disappear, Yun Ci let out a long sigh of relief.
Before the market opened, the sect leader and several elders said a few words.
Just like a modern school principal's speech.
Yun Ci sighed inwardly, thinking, "This kind of thing happens everywhere."
Fortunately, the sect leader only said a few words before letting them start setting up stalls.
Tens of thousands of disciples cheered instantly and sprang into action.
They were afraid that setting up stalls would be too chaotic, and there were no people walking around.
The disciples from the Hall of Affairs and the Hall of Discipline directed the disciples who were setting up stalls to set up their stalls in rows in the square.
Many people found a spot and started setting up their items for sale on the ground.
Yun Ci looked around and found a place as well.
This spot is located slightly off to the side of Xuanyuan Square, and it's a bit wider than the central area, making it convenient for him to place his small table.
Yun Ci took out the table she used for setting up her stall directly from her storage bag.
It's rectangular, about 1.5 meters long and 1 meter wide, with two pots on top.
One side is used to cook meatball soup, and the other side is used to steam buns.
This was specially commissioned by him from Chu Ziming.
Those around Yun Ci's eyes widened in surprise when they saw what he had laid out.
"Look at that inner disciple, what he's setting up looks like a pot."
A disciple pointed at Yun Ci and said in surprise.
"!!! He's not going to sell food, is he?!"
"I've been an outer disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect for over 10 years, and this is the first time I've ever seen someone setting up a stall to sell food!"
"This is the first time I've ever seen this, it's amazing."
"Does the sect really allow people to set up stalls to sell food? This isn't some ordinary market."
"Before coming to the Xuanyuan Sect, I was an ordinary citizen, and I know that there's not much good food in the markets of the mortal world."
"Anyway, I'm not buying it. With fasting pills, who would eat anything?"
"Only a fool would buy it. Just you wait, he won't be able to sell a single bowl."
The crowd pointed and discussed, because while other disciples in the square were selling rare and precious materials, pills, talismans, spiritual plants and fruits, this was the first time someone had set up a large pot at their stall.
Yun Ci took out the items she needed from the storage bag, arranged them one by one, and wiped the table with a clean cloth.
"Look, look! That's Wen Miao, the personal disciple of Immortal Venerable Jiqing! Wow, he's walking this way!"
Suddenly, gasps of surprise erupted from the crowd.
"They're really walking this way! Ahhhhhh! Junior Brother Wen Miao is so handsome!"
"Junior Brother Wen Miao looks so gentle and kind. Most importantly, he treats both inner and outer disciples very well."
Some outer disciples had only heard of Wen Miao but had never seen him. Hearing what the people next to them said, they immediately felt a good impression of Wen Miao.
Wen Miao and Gu Yan walked over side by side.
Walking among the crowd, being watched by everyone, and listening to others praise him, Wen Miao really enjoyed this feeling.
Yun Ci took two small tables out of her storage bag and placed them next to the stall. Each table had four small wooden stools for customers to sit on and eat.
Yun Ci hung the sign that read: Steamed Buns, Meatball Soup in a conspicuous place.
I had just hung up my things when I heard a soft voice.
"Senior Brother Gu, let's stay here."
