The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 610: All Because Of The Poison

"That girl... That girl might be lured by food and get kidnapped in the future." Bai Xiang sighed.

"With her ability, who can kidnap her?" Bai Tingfeng stated.

"You are right." Bai Xiang nodded.

They both followed the eunuch. They did not realize that the eunuch was paying attention to their conversation. He would report it to the higher-ranking eunuch later.

Bai Xifeng entered the only female waiting section. When Bai Xifeng stepped into the section, all eyes turned to her. Some of them were looking shocked, some of them were mesmerised by her look and some of them looked at her while thinking.

Well, to be honest, the majority of the crowd did not know who she was. They did not connect the current Bai Xifeng with the old Bai Xifeng. Bai Xifeng did not even glance at the crowd. Her first focus was at the refreshments table. She saw the cakes and some sweets that had been displayed on the table, but no one seemed to pay attention to the delicious-looking dessert.

Bai Xifeng went to the table and chose the things that she wanted to eat. Then, she ate happily. Her actions had been watched by the young girls and madams. They thought this girl was quite rude. She did not even glance nor greet others but went straight to eat. They did not know this girl. It was probably the first time for this girl to get invited to the royal banquet.

While Bai Xifeng was eating, two girls approached her. Bai Xifeng noticed and looked up at the girls’ faces. She recognized these two girls.

"Oh... Zhilan, Qiaolian. Long time no see." Bai Xifeng greeted these two girls.

"It is really you, Xifeng." Su Zhilan smiled.

"You look different from the last time we met." Wan Qiaolian said.

"That’s right." Su Zhilan admitted.

Others also heard the conversation and were stunned. ’Xifeng? That was General Bai’s daughter, right? So, it is Bai Xifeng? She indeed looks different from last time. She looks more and more like her mother.’

The madams who met General Bai’s wife in the past knew how what General Bai looked like. It was indeed similar to Bai Xifeng’s current appearance.

"Really? I don’t think much about it. Well, it is probably because some of the poisons in my body have been neutralized." Bai Xifeng stated nonchalantly.

Bai Xifeng did not know the impact of her words on others. They looked shocked when they heard about poisons in Bai Xifeng’s body.

"Xifeng, you say some of the poison in your body has been neutralized. Meaning there is still some left inside your body right now?" Su Zhilan asked in shock

"Yes." Bai Xifeng admitted.

"That is not something that you should discuss in the public." Wan Qiaolian stated.

"Nah... It is okay." Bai Xifeng said.

"You..." Wan Qiaolian could not believe Bai Xifeng. This girl was very carefree.

"So, you are in seclusion because of that poison?" Su Zhilan asked.

"Well... You can say so." Bai Xifeng said.

She remembered her father saying that when someone asked about her whereabouts, her father would tell them that she was in seclusion. Well, it was a pretty good idea to lie.

"Do you feel sick?" Su Zhilan asked in worry.

"Nope... Not at all. Those poisons did not have any effects on my body but on my cultivation." Bai Xifeng said.

"Oh... So, that is the reason why you can not cultivate in the past." Wan Qiaolian connected it.

"Well, you can say so." Bai Xifeng nodded. She ate another piece of cake.

Everyone finally understood why Bai Xifeng could not cultivate in the past. Not because of her talentless but because of the poisons in her body that blocked her path. Now it was clearing up, no wonder she could cultivate now. General Bai was talented, his wife was also the same and his son had been declared a genius with the rare element attribute. His daughter was the same.

Some madams began to look at Bai Xifeng in high evaluation. They were thinking of putting Bai Xifeng beside their sons. They seemed to forget that Bai Xifeng was engaged to the fool third prince.

New people were entering the female section. Everyone looked at the new arrival. It was Han Yunru with her two daughters, Bai Chunhua and Bai Huiling. They walked with their head raised above.

Some madams who had a good relationship with Han Yunru went to greet Han Yunru.

"Madam Bai, how are you?" It was Madam Lee, from the Lee Family greeted Han Yunru.

"I am feeling great. How are you?" Han Yunru replied.

"I am also feeling greet. Oh... This is the First Young Miss Bai, right? The one who had been chosen to go to Tianlong School? You become prettier." Madam Lee looked at Bai Chunhua.

Bai Chunhua smiled gently. "Yes, this young girl is indeed Bai Chunhua. It has been a while since we last met." She greeted Madam Lee gracefully.

"You are truly a well-behaved girl." Madam Lee was satisfied by Bai Chunhua’s behaviour.

"Yes... Yes... Unlike someone who ignored everything and rushed to eat."

"That is the difference between having a mother and not having a mother. No one could teach her."

Some of the madams chimed in. Some of them avoided saying such things. Even though no one mentioned the name, everyone knew the person that they talked about.
