Rebirth Of A Villainess

Xu Hui gave a salute to the chief cultivator and his wife, as the guards walked her from the hall of glaze. A look of serenity was on the face of the BaoXu sect disciple which hid the seething rage within.

Jin Ruimin's eyes narrowed as he watched them leave, while those of his wife were filled with pity towards Li Guoliang's daughter. 

Clearing his throat, the GuBaiJin sect leader faced the people seated to address the matters of the fox clan and his sect.

"Fox King Yan. Lady Jin and I would like to apologize for not bringing up the marriage prospect between a distinguished disciple from the GuBaiJin sect and Princess Yan Xuequi. Please accept our humble apologies!"

Jin Ruimin and Jin Huiyan rose from their seat almost in unison to give a deep bow of respect towards the fox royalty. Afterwards, the couple returned back to their seat at the head of the table.

Yan ShuChang merely gave a slight nod of his head to them, at the same time he motioned for the maid that had caught his interest to sit by his side on the empty seat that previously separated him from Xu Hui.

Not a single person missed what took place, as they all gape at the outrageous behavior of the Fox King. A maid sitting on the table reserved for the elite, was unheard of in the puligistic world. If word got out that it was one from the most prominent sect, the shame alone could be unbearable.

"Fox King Yan?!...W..Why is a...maid...sitting..at your...table?!"

"Lady Jin, I do recall saying that she is now under my wings! I can do whatsoever I please to her! Make not mention of this any further!"

Jin Ruimin's face became very stiff when he heard the icy words of the Fox King to his wife, which was meant to rebuke her in front of their guests. The chief cultivator could not speak in defense of her, for fear he could end up incurring the disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e of the fox royalty.

"Fox King Yan, do not mind the words of Lady Jin. She truly bears you no ill-intent. Now to the matter at hand, a well respected disciple would be honored to wed your granddaughter. Jin Caihe!"

As though on cue, the head teacher of the sect, rose to his feet and saluted the people in the hall, beginning with the chief cultivator and wife, Fox King and his daughter, with the rest in accordance to their status in the cultivation world.
