Liu Xue Arrives

The morning sun cast a golden glow upon the Xia Family Manor as servants bustled about, preparing for the day's activities. Around midday, a flurry of hurried whispers announced the arrival of a distinguished guest.

 

"Miss Liu Xue, the core disciple of the Jade Lotus Palace, has arrived, Matriarch!" a servant informed Xia Bingling, bowing deeply.

 

And very soon, this news of Liu Xue's arrival reached Wang Li and Xia Qingwu.

 

Following Xia Bingling's lead, they made their way to the grand council hall, a place reserved for formal meetings and gatherings.

 

Entering the hall, Liu Xue cut an elegant figure. Clad in the pristine white robes of the Jade Lotus Palace, she exuded an aura of quiet strength and grace. Her eyes, the color of a clear summer sky, held a hint of curiosity as they landed on the occupants of the room.

 

Protocol dictated the order of greetings.
