Cheng Lingsu nodded, "I know you feel unsatisfied with your position. Since you once possessed the qualifications to enter a high society circle, but now it\'s all gone. You and we are from two different worlds. Countless ordinary people want to force their way into high society yet only humiliation awaits them."
Jiang Xiu looked towards her, asking, "Is this what you wanted to convey to this Deity?"
She continued, "You\'ve offended the top four elite young masters of Jiangnan now but don\'t even have a standing inside this circle. Leave! This place isn\'t for you!"
"Is that so?"
Jiang Xiu smiled indifferently, brushing past Cheng Lingsu\'s shoulder. A grim intent flashed through her eyes when she saw that he wasn\'t heeding her advice. She firmly stated, "Jiang Xiu, I can stop you but don\'t hate me for it."
"You\'re free to try…"
Cheng Lingsu\'s beautiful brows locked up as she clenched her fists subconsciously, so much that even her shoulders were trembling.
Jiang Xiu left in huge strides. When Tang Wenchong who was waiting nearby saw Jiang Xiu return, he politely explained, "I was afraid Mr. Jiang would find difficulty in locating the place, so I continued to wait here…"
"Mhm, lead the way!"
In the high society, the distinction in the social classes was clear-cut. It was done according to the position. The farther in it went, the nobler was their status. Someone like Ye Wenchen could only sit at the outermost roundtable, accompanied by Ouyang Qian and the rest.
When Jiang Xiu entered inside, all of them wondered where this brat would sit.
Ouyang Qian didn\'t spare any slack, "It\'d best if he was given a small wooden stool at the corner."
Li Dan giggled, "That\'d be quite the scene."
"Isn\'t it strange that a fruit seller can enter the high society?"
With regards to Jiang Xiu being able to come to a party of such grade, it made them lose their sense of superiority, which gave them discomfort.
"He\'s Tang Wenchong\'s visitor, according to the norm, he should sit in the 3rd tier area."
Ye Wenchen\'s words made sense. They were in the 4th tier area right now.
They had come in through Yang Yong\'s referral and were only children, so it was natural for them to sit in the outermost location. Ye Wenchen understood this, and although he said those words, he still felt discomfort. No matter which aspect, he was superior to Jiang Xiu, but that damned fruit seller was acquainted with Tang Wenchong.
Cheng Lingsu also came inside and sat down, her sight following Jiang Xiu\'s silhouette.
Jiang Xiu had already entered the 3rd tier area.
The invitation Sun Xiaohong possessed was for the 3rd tier area. It was already pretty good that her friend was able to arrange for the 3rd tier. It was from a military connection similar to Tang Zhenshan.
A peculiar glint flashed through Sun Xiaohong\'s eyes when she looked at him. I have to annul the engagement between Jiang Xiu and Susu at all costs. Keeping aside the fact whether he\'d come out alive today after the four young masters are done with him, even if he does, that\'d still offend them. Offending them was equivalent to making enemies with over 50% of Jiangnan\'s elite power holders. Why would my Cheng family still want such a son-in-law?
Jiang Xiu still continued to walk and passed through the 3rd tier area.
"How was he able to pass?"
Ye Wenchen and the rest felt agitated.
Just having a difference of one level gave them discomfort, it was already two levels higher. Just why? Why can that damn fruit seller pass through?
An unusual expression floated up on Cheng Lingsu\'s face. Even her mother was seated in the 3rd tier area, but his seat was higher.
Ye Wenchen said, "It\'s the 2nd tier for sure, it won\'t go higher." Even Tang Wenchong himself only had the qualifications to sit in the 2nd tier area.
Ouyang Qian expressed disdain, "That\'s nothing!"
Lin Shu said, "Acting like hot sh*t but dooming his entire family. Just see what happens after the party."
"Fudge!"
He swore right after that because Jiang Xiu passed through the 2nd tier area and directly walked over to the 1st tier area. This was an impossibility as all those seated in the 1st tier were eminent personas.
"Impossible!" Ye Wenchen couldn\'t believe it.
The 1st tier was quite far away, almost 100 m from them. Jiang Xiu had entered that elite area, somewhere they all aspired for.
Cheng Lingsu almost lost her manners and acted up.
The Tang family holds Jiang Xiu this highly!?
Just why?
"It\'s really happening!" A few of them cried out together after seeing this, their tone seemed unwilling, but they were helpless.
Each area conformed to a precise social position, based on either their post or assets or influence. People paid a high price just to be able to sit in the higher area. But now, Jiang Xiu had directly dashed into the elite area, this made them lose their calm as well as collapsed their hearts.
"How is this possible?"
Young Master Gu, Young Master Li, and Bai Feng were seated in the 1st tier area, but even they were sitting in the periphery. They subconsciously raised their brows when they saw Tang Wenchong bring Jiang Xiu to the 1st tier area. It\'s true that enemies clash often. Such a beggar can sneak into the 1st tier area?
But Jiang Xiu kept walking and passed the periphery of the 1st tier area.
Young Master Gu and the rest looked at this with shock.
How can this be? He\'ll enter the place where the real elite and big shots are if he keeps walking. Even though they were the young masters of their families, they were after all the 2nd generation. Only when they take the helm of the family would they obtain the qualifications to enter the elite area.
Ye Wenchen and the rest stood up.
He\'s going to be on an equal footing with the big shots?
The people who had witnessed the quarrel between Jiang Xiu and the four young master\'s before were utterly shocked. Does this damn fruit seller have some hidden identity?
\'
But that shock didn\'t end as Jiang Xiu still kept walking.
"H-He went in!"
He had entered the inner hall.
"This…"
Everyone was left speechless, and though they were very unresigned, this had expressed Old Father Tang Zhenshan\'s intentions. The reason he allowed Tang Wenchong to bring Jiang Xiu inside wasn\'t that Jiang Xiu was a shaman but because he believed that Jiang Xiu possessed the qualifications to enter inside.
The inner hall was lush with grass, sculpted corridors as well as water fountains, making it look quite appealing, giving it an elegant ambiance. The noise from outside couldn\'t even enter inside.
"We welcome you, Venerable Mr. Jiang!"
Tang Zhenshan wore a smile, the sleeve over his crippled arm waved due to the wind slightly. His gaze held no hatred within it due to the crippled arm, as if he was meeting a noble guest.
"It\'s been a long time since we last met, Old Father Tang."
Jiang Xiu said indifferently.
His sight fell on Tang Zhenshan\'s crippled arm, causing him to frown. Tang Zhenshan gave up on his arm, which made Jiang Xiu shake his head. Ignorant mortal, even if you cannot use the arm again, you ought to have connected it or else you\'ll lose the arm once again in the next reincarnation. That\'s the reason dead bodies were sewn together in ancient times.
"Talisman paper!"
Tang Wenchong couldn\'t understand it. Tang Zhenshan signaled him to follow the words. This Mr. Jiang is really eccentric. Why does he want a talisman paper when everything is fine.
As the party today was to appreciate ancient artifacts, there was a pile of worn out talisman papers on the table. It was unclear which era they were from, but since Jiang Xiu wanted it, Tang Wenchong went to get one.
Jiang Xiu took it with his left hand, the talisman had a lot of glyphs drawn on it. He just swept a glance through it and then used his forefinger to draw on it through the void. There was no magic force on it. Jiang Xiu ignored it, and as he moved his finger, glyphs appeared on top of the talisman but Tang Zhenshan and Tang Wenchong couldn\'t see them at all.
Jiang Xiu had finished drawing soon and explained, "After Old Father Tang dies, remember to stick this talisman on the crippled arm. Don\'t forget this!"
Jiang Xiu gave the talisman to Tang Zhenshan to let him hold it in safekeeping.
Jiang Xiu had chopped off Tang Zhenshan\'s arm, but sins followed to the next reincarnation. Jiang Xiu\'s talisman was called as \'Returning the Soul Fragment to Origin Talisman\', which would prevent Tang Zhenshan from becoming a disabled person in the next reincarnation, allowing him to be born as a regular person.
Tang Zhenshan couldn\'t understand any of this, "Mr. Jiang also knows spellcasting?"
Jiang Xiu smiled faintly, declining to comment.
He had already given the talisman as a present, and it\'d depend on Tang Zhenshan\'s luck whether he believes it or not and also whether his posterity follows the instructions.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Jiang, please come in!"
There were quite a lot of different ancient artifacts displayed on the booths. All of them were in glass containers. Only when a Shaman wanted to inspect it, they\'d take it out. Tang Zhenshan had collected all these ancient artifacts, and even if they weren\'t artifacts, he possessed a keen gaze, so they were all priceless antiques. His nature was quite prudent.
"Since Mr. Jiang understands spellcasting, please have a look at them."
A lot of people were gathered here. Jiang Xiu looked over curiously. A black jar-like object was displayed on a booth with a muddy and worn-out talisman stuck on it.
