Returning to the residence, Ye Xi saw Dugu Yan, Tian Yue, and Ye Lingling, who had already returned from the Tian Dou Great Spirit Arena, and walked straight over to them.
"There is a banquet tonight, so make sure you dress more formally."
"The Breaking Clan, the Defense Clan, the Nine Heart Begonia Family, and Poison Douluo Senior will all be in attendance."
Ye Xi looked at the three of them, her voice full of seriousness.
Upon hearing Ye Xi's words, Tian Yue, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling were slightly stunned at first, but they quickly recovered and nodded in unison.
"Go and get ready; it is already getting late."
After saying this, Ye Xi headed toward her room.
Tian Yue, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling did not hesitate and walked off in their respective directions.
About half an hour later, Ye Xi was the first to emerge from her room.
She was dressed in a silver palace-style gown, her silver hair styled up with a jade hairpin.
Ye Xi walked straight to the stone table and sat down, quietly waiting for the others to arrive.
Ling Yuan silently walked behind Ye Xi and stood there quietly.
Soon, Tian Yue, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling also emerged from their rooms one after another and came to Ye Xi's side.
"Young Miss, when are we leaving?"
Tian Yue sat down beside Ye Xi and asked.
"Wait a little longer."
"Once my sister arrives, we can set off."
Ye Xi rested her arms on the stone table, propping up her head with her hand, and waited quietly.
After nodding, Tian Yue and the others did not ask any further questions.
As for the sister Ye Xi mentioned, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling had met her a few times at the residence, so they both knew who she was.
Not long after, the figures of Qian Renxue and She Long appeared in the residence.
"Ye Xi, let's go."
Qian Renxue stood not far away and waved at Ye Xi and the others.
Seeing this, Ye Xi and the others did not hesitate and immediately walked toward where Qian Renxue was.
After a brief conversation, the group headed toward the restaurant that had been booked.
Just as they arrived in front of the restaurant, Ye Xi saw Dugu Bo, Ye Qingxue, Yang Wudi, Yang Wushuang, Niu Gao, and others standing quietly at the entrance, waiting for their arrival.
"Sorry, we are late."
"Let me introduce you to each other; this is my sister: Qian Renxue."
"And beside my sister is She Long."
Ye Xi introduced everyone to each other.
Qian Renxue offered a polite smile to Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, and the others.
"Not late, not late at all."
"We only just arrived ourselves."
Yang Wudi waved his hand dismissively, his gaze sweeping over Qian Renxue and Ye Xi with a hint of admiration.
Although Ye Xi was beautiful, she was still too young.
Qian Renxue was different; her face no longer held the immaturity of youth, and she could truly be described as having a peerless appearance.
After entering the restaurant, they discovered that the first and second floors were already filled with Disciples from the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan, while seats for Ye Xi and her party were in a private room on the third floor.
The group walked into the private room on the third floor and took their seats accordingly, with Ye Xi sitting in the main seat and Qian Renxue sitting beside her.
"I have booked this restaurant for three days."
"First, it is to welcome the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan, and second, it is for the Senior members of our Frost Snow Pavilion to meet one another."
"You should all have gotten to know each other already, so I won't make any further introductions."
Ye Xi looked at the people in the room, her exquisite face wearing a faint smile.
"We have already gotten to know each other a short while ago."
"I heard from Clan Chief Niu Gao that you, Pavilion Master, are ready to begin establishing the Frost Snow Pavilion."
"Our Nine Heart Begonia Family has craftsmen skilled in construction; I wonder if you need our help."
Ye Qingxue clasped her hands together, looking at Ye Xi in the main seat with an inquisitive expression.
"I have already entrusted the matter of establishing the Frost Snow Pavilion to Senior Niu to handle entirely; I wonder what you think, Senior?"
After a brief moment of thought, Ye Xi turned her gaze toward Niu Gao.
"Having more construction craftsmen would naturally speed up the construction, but these craftsmen must follow the arrangements of our Defense Clan."
Niu Gao leaned back in his chair, his voice full of seriousness.
"That is only natural."
"The craftsmen I send will naturally follow Clan Chief Niu's arrangements."
Ye Qingxue nodded gently and agreed immediately.
Listening to their conversation, Qian Renxue reached out and nudged Ye Xi, who was sitting beside her, winking at her with her pale golden eyes.
Seeing Qian Renxue's look, Ye Xi immediately understood what she meant.
"Since we can speed up the establishment, I have a good personal relationship with Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, and I can ask him to send some craftsmen to help."
Ye Xi said softly, her gaze casually sweeping over the people in the private room.
"That would naturally be for the best."
Niu Gao nodded gently, his eyes full of approval.
If someone could send craftsmen over, it would make things easier for their Defense Clan.
Of course, the quality would still need to be overseen by their Defense Clan.
"Let's stop discussing business for now."
"Ling Yuan, please go and have the restaurant staff start serving the dishes."
"Bring out the restaurant's signature fine wine as well; we must ensure the Seniors have a good time."
Ye Xi said, glancing at She Long, Dugu Bo, Yang Wudi, Yang Wushuang, Niu Gao, and the others.
After all, in the entire private room, these were the only ones who would actually be drinking.
"Yes, Young Miss."
Ling Yuan acknowledged this and walked straight out of the private room to find the person in charge of the restaurant.
"Pavilion Master, then we won't stand on ceremony."
Yang Wudi revealed a smile, and while speaking, he reached out and patted Niu Gao on the shoulder.
The meaning was obvious.
"It's no trouble at all; the two Seniors came from thousands of miles away, bringing the Disciples of your clans, so this is only right."
Ye Xi waved her hand dismissively, a faint smile on the corners of her lips.
Before long, Ling Yuan returned to the private room, accompanied by the restaurant staff.
After placing the fine wine and drinks on the dining table, the staff silently withdrew.
Shortly after, the restaurant's signature delicacies were placed on the table one by one, and Ye Xi and her party picked up their utensils and began to taste them.
"The food here tastes really good."
After tasting a dish, Yang Wudi picked up his wine glass and glanced at Niu Gao beside him.
Niu Gao also raised his wine glass, and after clinking glasses with Yang Wudi, they began to drink heartily.
As for Ye Xi, Qian Renxue, and the others, they were drinking fruit juice and similar beverages.
