Chapter 994: Chapter 125 Foundation Establishment_2

All of those present were at the Nascent Soul Stage, and each of them represented certain interests. If one desired to form a marriage alliance, one had to sort out the background of each person clearly—it wasn’t something to be done hastily.

“Cai’er, you’re the star of today’s event. So many people have come to celebrate your birthday; are you happy?!” Seeing Mo Cai’er approaching, Mo Youcheng asked with a beaming smile.

“Happy, thank you, Grandpa!” Mo Cai’er’s face brimmed with a smile, showing no signs of the distress she had felt in the side hall earlier.

As a scion of a prestigious family, she naturally wasn’t the capricious person others thought she might be. Long ago, she had learned to read the room and to play her part in any given situation.

“Since that’s the case, why don’t you dance to thank everyone?”

Mo Youcheng clearly wanted to show off his granddaughter and made the suggestion with an affected air.

“All right!”

Mo Cai’er seemed genuinely pleased and began a graceful dance after the guests made room for her performance.

Her skirt swayed slowly with her movement, her dance was light and smooth, her actions agile and beautiful, fully highlighting her flexibility and elegant curves.

Her eyes seemed to merge with the dance, sparkling brilliantly one moment, tender the next, flitting back and forth, stirring the hearts of many young men in the crowd to pound fiercely.

Even Kun, who already had a partner and preferred tall, strong women, couldn’t help but shake his head in admiration.

When the dance ended, Mo Cai’er bowed and retreated gracefully, causing the audience to come back to their senses.

“Bravo!”

A young man couldn’t help but exclaim loudly.

This immediately provoked a round of laughter on the floor.

Of course, those laughing were all old monsters at the Nascent Soul Stage. Most of the young peers, whose attention was still riveted on Mo Cai’er, found it difficult to look away.

Some girls of the same status pursed their lips in displeasure, their eyes filled with malice and dissatisfaction when they looked at Mo Cai’er.

At this coming-of-age ceremony, Mo Cai’er had stolen the show, which was hardly something that would please the other young ladies.

“Alright, us old folks will chat over there. We’ll leave the floor to the youngsters!”

Mo Youcheng chuckled, summoning all the Nascent Soul elders to another palace, planning to hold a convention coinciding with the coming-of-age ceremony.

Understanding the unspoken agreement, the Nascent Soul powerhouses departed, leaving only the young scions behind.

“Mo Cai’er, h.e.l.lo, I’m Kun. It’s a pleasure to meet you…”

“Mo Cai’er, h.e.l.lo, I’m Hu Bing. Can we be friends?”

With the elders out of the way, the young men present took their chances, swarming around Mo Cai’er and introducing themselves.

Toward each one, Mo Cai’er was magnanimous and hospitable, her composure adding to the admiration of the many male cultivators.

“Mo Cai’er, happy coming-of-age. I give to you a set of ‘Dragon Soars to the Ninth Heaven’…”

Some were shocked, not expecting someone to give a Tier 3 magic artifact to gain Mo Cai’er’s attention.

“What’s ‘Dragon Soars to the Ninth Heaven’? Little sister Cai’er, I present to you ‘Dragon Flies Over the Eight Desolations’…”

All kinds of rare treasures kept emerging, their preciousness far exceeding the initially agreed-upon gift standards.

If the elders of their families knew that their offspring were squandering wealth this way, they would probably be infuriated to the point of spitting blood.

Too many wolves and not enough meat—if anyone could gain Mo Cai’er’s favor and thus ally with the Mo Family, then no gift would be too precious.

But now, with more than fifty gift-givers, the combined value of the gifts was enough to even tempt Nascent Soul ancestors.

As for these gifts, Mo Cai’er accepted each one graciously, thanking the givers politely, but in her heart, she was thinking she could save them for Zhao Yu’s use later on.

The coming-of-age ceremony lasted well into the day, and the guests left satisfied. After sending everyone off, Mo Cai’er left in a hurry, making it to Jiu Liu Fang before midnight.

It was still that ancient street, lively with silhouettes. With joy and exhilaration in her heart, Mo Cai’er slipped into an old and somewhat dilapidated house.

Pus.h.i.+ng the door open and seeing the man seated cross-legged inside, her face broke into a sweet smile.

“Brother Yu, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting!”

Seeing the radiant Mo Cai’er before him, Zhao Yu’s eyes lit up. “You look so beautiful!”

Today, Mo Cai’er had heard too many compliments, all sorts of grand praises that left her unmoved, but now, Zhao Yu’s simple four words made her heart bloom with joy, overflowing with delight.

Zhao Yu reached out and embraced Mo Cai’er, breathing in her scent deeply, and when he saw her cherry-like red lips, he couldn’t resist bending down and capturing them with his own.

“Brother Yu~~!”

Mo Cai’er cried out shyly.

That cry was like a cannon shot straight to Zhao Yu’s heart, p.r.i.c.king a yearning itch.

“Cai’er, are you ready?!”

Zhao Yu released her lips, gazing into Mo Cai’er’s misty eyes with deep affection as he asked.

“Mhm~~!”

Mo Cai’er’s heartbeat quickened, her ears tinged with blush, and she shyly closed her eyes.

Embracing a beauty in his arms, the night would be unforgettable.

…

Sun high in the sky.

The room a disheveled mess.

On the bed, two figures lay entwined, bare-skinned.

“Cai’er, I’m sorry!”

“Why say that, Brother Yu?!” Mo Cai’er, with tears still on her cheeks but eyes full of happiness, asked in confusion.

“You were too beautiful last night, a beauty I never imagined, and I couldn’t hold back…”

Zhao Yu spoke with a trace of sentimentality. “But you are to marry, you are to have a partner, and now you’ve given your first time to me…”

“Brother Yu, you must not speak like that!”

Mo Cai’er smiled sweetly, saying, “Didn’t you say it yourself? You are a libertarian, and I hope to be one too. Perhaps I can’t control my future, but I can govern my present…”
