Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 470: Sect Banquet

"Sisi, wear this outfit; it’s both dignified and understated."

Hong Kong District.

At Li Mansion on Taiping Mountain, Sisi’s mother was taking out dresses, one after another, for her daughter to try.

In the end, Rich Man Lee chose a relatively traditional and appropriate dress for his granddaughter to wear.

Tonight was the Cold Moon Sect’s first-ever sect banquet.

It was both to celebrate the Sect Leader’s successful Divinity Transformation and the overall enhancement of the sect’s strength, and indirectly to enable the disciples to get to know and interact with each other better, hence a social banquet was arranged.

This banquet also allowed disciples to bring relatives to get to know each other to avoid potential conflicts of interest among the families of disciples in the future.

Having been high-society nobles all their lives, the Old Li family was very strict about etiquette in this area.

Moreover, considering his granddaughter’s awkward position within the sect, he also hoped she could use such social interactions to raise her profile and quickly find her footing within the sect.

Why is it said that Sisi’s current situation is somewhat awkward?

Because she and Li Tong from the neighboring Old Li’s Second Branch entered the sect later, and their talents were average at best.

Her current realm was still at Mid Qi-Refining Stage, and that was only thanks to the sect’s secret techniques that she advanced swiftly.

Without the bolstering of secret techniques, the two of them would have been merely at the Innate level at best.

Being the only two disciples in the entire sect in the Qi Refinement Realm, they indeed held the sect back.

During the sect’s group observation of the Sect Leader’s breakthrough, both were unable to leave Earth to attend the event due to not being at the Foundation Establishment Stage, missing out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Besides, their master, He Xin, was the one with the weakest seniority in the management.

While every other housekeeper had made their breakthrough to Nascent Soul and possessed their Cave Mansion, allowing their disciples to cultivate efficiently, only He Xin’s peak lacked a Cave Mansion.

With their master already unable to hold her head high, if Sisi and Li Tong handled things poorly in their dealings, it would only tarnish their master’s reputation further.

Therefore, Rich Man Lee was very strict with his granddaughter, insisting that she adapt and integrate into the sect, forge good relationships with other female senior disciples, and avoid becoming the disgrace of the sect. She might not excel in strength, but her character had to be top-notch!

Sisi and Li Tong were the first to arrive at the scene.

They also took an active role as emcees, greeting the entering Inner and Outer Sect disciples with a respectful "Senior Sister."

Many disciples wondered why the two called them Senior Sister, as they had never seen them at the sect gatherings.

Assuming the two were not from the sect, each just nodded symbolically before leading their families inside.

Watching many senior sisters inside talking and laughing about their cultivation and the problems they encountered with secret techniques, they seemed more like one group. Standing at the doorway, Sisi and Li Tong felt a longing desire to join them.

When Huo Yi and Eileen arrived, Sisi and Li Tong’s spirits lifted, and they hurried over to greet Eileen, the Sect Leader’s direct disciple and head senior sister.

"This is Masteral Uncle He’s disciples, Sisi of Rich Man Lee’s family and Li Tong of Li Zhaoji’s family," they introduced themselves.

Sisi and Li Tong quickly greeted, "Nice to meet you, Senior Sister Eileen; nice to meet you, Senior Sister Huo Yi."

Huo Yi smiled amicably and waved off the formality, "There’s no need to be so polite, aunts."

Speaking of which, Huo Yi’s grandfather, Huo Zhenting, was of the same generation as Sisi and Li Tong’s fathers.

As the late Elder Huo and Rich Man Lee were of the same generation, and Huo Yi was Elder Huo’s great-granddaughter, by hierarchy, she should address Sisi and Li Tong as aunts.

However, Sisi and Li Tong insisted, "Here in the sect, we must follow the sect’s rules."

This indeed earned Eileen’s favor.

As the chief disciple of the sect, she always regarded the sect as her own home, and she did not allow anyone to ignore anything about the sect.

In the hall, when the disciples saw big sister Eileen enter, they excused themselves one after another and then came over with their goblets in hand.

"Greetings to Elder Sister Eileen."

All the disciples came to greet her, including Miss Kai from the Donald family.

Eileen looked towards all her junior sisters and proactively introduced them to Li Sisi and Li Tong, saying, "These two are the direct disciples of Masteral Uncle He Xin, who have recently joined and missed out on this trip to the sect. This is Li Sisi, and her name is Li Tong."

The disciples were stunned.

Indeed, it was the first time they had seen the two and learned they were disciples of He Xin.

They had assumed that the earlier gathering at the sect had included all the disciples.

After Eileen’s introduction, they all smiled and stepped forward to greet Li Sisi and Li Tong.

"Hello, Junior Sister."

Li Sisi and Li Tong quickly shook hands, "The elder sisters can call me Sisi (Little Tong)."

At that moment, He Xin, who had just entered, saw her two disciples mingling with the other sisters from within the sect and felt rather gratified.

"Masteral Uncle He, greetings."

All the disciples greeted He Xin with great respect.

The sect had always maintained a clear hierarchical respect; even though He Xin currently only possessed the strength of the late-stage Core Formation, she was still their uncle in terms of seniority, so the disciples were careful not to overstep their bounds.

He Xin smiled and greeted the disciples, then before going in, she couldn’t help but give her two students a glance.

Her gaze carried some dissatisfaction towards the two disciples but also included a hint of encouragement and satisfaction.

Understanding their master’s temperament, Li Sisi and Li Tong exchanged a glance and then chuckled.

Afterwards, Pei Li, Lin Qin, Yue Xuan, and Ye Shuting also arrived.

Their disciples, upon seeing their mentors, brought their family members to greet them.

The disciples had brought their mothers or aunts today.

In any case, they were the family elders with influence, and given that the gathering included only female disciples, they had all brought female elders.

These elders, upon encountering the sect’s housekeepers, would go up one by one to offer a toast and express their gratitude.

After their daughters became disciples of the Cold Moon Sect, their families’ status in their respective countries had risen significantly and benefited greatly.

The value of being a disciple of the Cold Moon Sect reached new heights after the Sect Leader attained Divinity Transformation.

As the first global sect to possess a "Fifth Dimension" Cave Mansion, not to talk of those at the Core Formation Stage, even other Nascent Soul Lords desired to go there for afk cultivation.

Despite being looked down upon by their own mentor for not being distinguished enough, Li Sisi and Li Tong would be guests of honor at any mainstream gathering they attended!

Lin Yue, Liu Yuan, and Jiang Xue entered all smiles.

Liu Yuan and Jiang Xue were asking Lin Yue for advice on how to choose their own Star Systems.

With so many elders, Hall Masters, and Sect Leaders in the sect having successfully completed their Infant Binding, although they had decided to stay with the sect and not establish their independent Cave Mansions, Gu Feng had set a rule that they would not miss out on the awarded Star Systems.

Even if they did not wish to manage them personally, they could entrust the management of those planetary resources to their family members.

When they saw the Sect Leader and the protector enter, everyone in the hall solemnly set down their glasses and stopped all conversations, proceeding with respectful decorum to go greet them.
