She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement

However, in the face of Old Madam Jing's terrifying gaze, Jing Jiaren remained fearless and her expression didn't change.

Realizing that she really couldn't intimidate this little girl, Old Madam Jing suddenly shouted outside the study, "Qingxi, send Young Master back to her room to change. Don't let her miss the opening of the banquet." Upon hearing this, the study door was opened from the outside and Qingxi Momo walked in.

Qingxi Momo looked at Jing Jiaren with a complicated gaze, but in the end, she still bowed to Jing Jiaren and said, "Young Master, please go back."

This address represented Old Madam Jing's concession and Jing Jiaren's victory.

"Then, Grandmother, see you in the banquet hall later." Jing Jiaren bowed to Old Madam Jing and walked out of the castle accompanied by Qingxi Momo.

After leaving the door, Qingxi Momo suddenly handed Jing Jiaren a handkerchief. "Young Master, wipe the sweat off your forehead."

Jing Jiaren's body stiffened slightly, but she didn't reach out to take the handkerchief.

The corners of Qingxi Momo's lips curled up slightly as she said, "Young Master, although you've already grown up, it doesn't mean that the old lady is really that old. If she really wants to remove you from the position of heir, she can still do it. Although you're the most powerful young disciple in the clan, the old lady might be able to nurture a new heir."

"The old lady didn't admit defeat." Qingxi Momo stuffed the handkerchief into Jing Jiaren's palm and said, "It's just that her satisfaction with you surpasses her disappointment in you." With that, Qingxi Momo turned around and returned to the castle.

As Jing Jiaren held the handkerchief, she didn't say anything.

With the silence around her, she realized how fast her heart was beating and how much sweat was on her forehead.

Old Madam Jing was an old fox, so it was impossible for her not to see Jing Jiaren's uneasiness and fear.

Jing Jiaren couldn't help but feel afraid.

However, she made the right gamble.

Naturally, no one else knew about the psychological battle that had happened in the Jing family's residence. At this moment, in the magnificent banquet hall at the foot of the mountain, waves of powerful spiritual energy were suppressed by their master, but they still looked imposing.

As those young people with low cultivation levels stood in the banquet hall, they felt at a loss. Even the circulation of the blood in their bodies seemed to have slowed down greatly.

As it got closer and closer to eight o'clock, those powerful big shots appeared.

When there were only five minutes left until the official start of the birthday banquet, the temperature in the hall suddenly dropped. At this moment, the butler's high-pitched voice suddenly sounded from outside the door. "Prime Emperor Divine Miracle of the Cang Lang Continent, Prime Emperor Si Cheng, Prime Emperor Mo Xiao, the patriarch of the nine-tailed fox family of the Demon Beast Continent, Grand Master Yu Huang of the Holy Spirit Continent are here to congratulate Old Madam Jing on her 500th birthday with a Level 9 Ice Flood Dragon as a gift!"

Upon hearing this, almost all the guests standing in the main hall immediately turned to look outside the door. Three Prime Emperors and one young Grand Master. This lineup could be considered the most imposing one for tonight.

As expected of Prime Emperor Divine Miracle. He was actually able to catch a level 9 Ice Flood Dragon to give to Old Madam Jing as a congratulatory gift.

After the announcement, a professional beast tamer walked over and led the incomparably huge ice-flood dragon to the Demonic Beast Forest.

"Brother Si Cheng!" Seeing that Si Cheng was here, Jing Ruge hurriedly walked out of the middle of the hall with his wife, Zhang Zhanyi. He hugged Si Cheng warmly and said in excitement, "Brother, thank you for attending my mother's birthday banquet today."

Jing Ruge's emotions also affected Si Cheng.

All these years, the two of them had drifted apart because of their different ideals. Even when they met in the interstellar city, they didn't interact much in private.

Being hugged warmly by Jing Ruge in such a grand venue was like going back in time. Si Cheng felt as if he had returned to forty years ago, to the day he and Yin Mingjue came to attend Jing Jiaren's baby shower.

Si Cheng put down all his grudges for the time being and hammered Jing Ruge's back hard. "Of course I have to come for your mother's 500th birthday. Even if I didn't receive the invitation, I would have come to celebrate her birthday."

Si Cheng let go of Jing Ruge and nodded at Zhang Zhanyi, who was standing beside Jing Ruge. "Sister-in-law, it's been many years since we last met. You seem to have become even prettier."

When she saw her old acquaintance, a smile appeared on Zhang Zhanyi's face. Then, she took the initiative to open her arms and hugged Si Cheng as she marveled, "Si Cheng, you look quite handsome today." As Zhang Zhanyi held Si Cheng's arm, she pointed at the beautiful and dignified bachelor female cultivators in the room. She teased Si Cheng, "There are many beautiful women, so I wish you success in getting out of bachelorhood."

Si Cheng smiled and pulled his hand out of Zhang Zhanyi's arm as he said with a smile, "My mentor is still a bachelor, so what's the hurry?" After saying that, Si Cheng looked at Professor Song, who was glaring at him, and asked, "Grand Mentor, don't you think so?"

Professor Song rolled his eyes angrily and asked Si Cheng, "Are you itching for a beating again?"

Si Cheng smiled and said nothing.

Jing Ruge and Zhang Zhanyi also noticed Professor Song.

The two of them were students who had graduated from the inner academy. During the years they studied in the inner academy, they had to pay their respects to the statue of Prime Emperor Divine Miracle every year. They had paid their respects to the stone statue of the Prime Emperor Divine Miracle for ten years. This time, they had to pay their respects to the Prime Emperor Divine Miracle himself, so the two of them felt a little uneasy.

When Jing Ruge saw a waiter walking over, he hurriedly took the wine glass from Zhang Zhanyi's hand and placed it on the tray with his own wine glass. Then, he also took two cups of high-grade tea from the tray.

After Jing Ruge handed one of the cups of tea to Zhang Zhanyi, he raised his cup of tea above his head and bowed to Prime Emperor Divine Miracle respectfully as he said humbly, "Greetings, Prime Emperor Divine Miracle. Please have some tea."

This was the 'Mentor Thanking Tea'. Prime Emperor Divine Miracle was worthy of it.

Professor Song took the tea from his hand and took a sip.

Zhang Zhanyi also toasted Professor Song.

"Prime Emperor Mo Xiao, thank you for taking the time to attend my mother's birthday." Jing Ruge picked up his wine glass again and raised it to toast Mo Xiao.

After Mo Xiao clinked glasses with him and took a sip, he took another cup of warm tea and turned around to hand it to Yu Huang, who was standing behind him. He said, "Ah Huang, you can just drink tea."

Only then did Yu Huang walk out from behind the three men.

She was wearing the ink-blue Saintess Descends gown. Her every move, frown, and smile were charming and elegant.

After taking the tea from Mo Xiao, Yu Huang thanked Mo Xiao first before nodding at Jing Ruge and Zhang Zhanyi. "Mr. Jing, Madam Jing, tonight's birthday banquet was perfect. Old Madam is really lucky to have a filial son and daughter-in-law like you two."

Jing Ruge and Zhang Zhanyi didn't reply to Yu Huang's praise. The two of them stared at Yu Huang in a daze.
