Inside the great hall, Zhou Yuntian led Lu Ye and the other three forward, stopping fifty meters from the low couch. With their heads lowered, he said respectfully, "Zhou Yuntian greets the Exalted One. The newcomers have been brought."
As he spoke, he turned his head and frantically winked at Lu Ye's group.
Li Baxian and the other two hurriedly cupped their fists in salute. Lu Ye followed their example, and the four said in unison, "Greetings, Exalted One!"
"Mm." The languid voice sounded again.
Lu Ye secretly raised his eyes to look, and what he saw left him stunned.
The Exalted One had appeared in the forest before, but a curtain had separated them then, so Lu Ye had not known what she looked like. He had only known that she was a woman.
Now that there was no curtain between them, he could naturally see her features with perfect clarity.
To be honest, Lu Ye had seen quite a few women since beginning cultivation, and many had been remarkably beautiful... Among female cultivators, there were practically none who were especially unattractive. Most had delicate brows and fine features, at the very least possessing ordinary beauty, while peerless beauties were far from rare.
The main reason, naturally, was that cultivators possessed Spiritual Power, which could preserve one's looks and nourish one's appearance.
But Lu Ye had never seen a face so breathtakingly beautiful. There was almost no flaw to be found upon it, perfect as though it did not belong to this mortal world.
More striking than its flawless beauty was an indescribable, bewitching allure! Especially the tiny tear mole beneath the corner of her eye, which added a different kind of seductive charm.
Such a face was undoubtedly a tremendous visual blow to the men of the world.
