In a woman's heart, no matter how many praises others gave her, they could not compare to those two words from his mouth.
The woman's smile stunned everyone present and made their hearts skip a beat.
Many cultivators were petrified on the spot and could not recover for a long time.
No matter how they listened, their conversation did not sound right.
What were the two of them doing in front of everyone?
Initially, many cultivators still harbored some fantasies about the third princess of Great Zhou. But now, they felt a sharp pain in their chests, as though they had suffered a heavy blow.
Xue Yi said in disbelief, "This … Junior Brother Su knows the third princess?"
"Hehe."
Little Fatty pinched his chubby chin and his eyes burned with the flames of gossip as he smiled lasciviously. "By the looks of it, their relationship isn't simple!"
Tao Feng's expression darkened as he glared at Su Zimo with obvious hostility.
Just Now, Si Yutang had already returned to the crowd after being humiliated. He snorted with a dark expression.
"What's going on? He's not here for Senior Brother Jun?"
"Who is that? Why is he so familiar with Senior Sister Yaoxue?"
Many Azure Frost Sect disciples frowned and discussed softly.
Taking a deep breath of air, Jun Hao lowered his head and clenched his fists behind his back. Green veins popped out on his fists before disappearing after a while.
Ji Yaoxue was delighted to receive Su Zimo's acknowledgment and said softly, "Wait here for a while. The sect competition is about to begin."
"Yes."
Su Zimo nodded.
"I'll head over first then."
Ji Yaoxue smiled and waved to Su Zimo before turning to leave in front of everyone.
Just Now, her actions were rather bold and she mustered her courage. Even now, her heart was still thumping wildly when she thought about it.
Coupled with the fiery gazes from all around, she could not help but feel shy despite being a princess and was too embarrassed to continue staying.
Jun Hao noticed the shyness and gentleness that Ji Yaoxue inadvertently revealed. He couldn't help but frown as a trace of imperceptible gloominess flashed through the depths of his eyes.
Then, Jun Hao's expression changed. His eyes flickered and he seemed to be deep in thought.
No!
Just Now, Ji Yaoxue had said something wrong!
The Inter-Sect Tournament was about to begin. Ji Yaoxue asked Su Zimo to wait here for a while. After a while, what was she going to do?
Or, what was this Su Zimo trying to do?
Just to participate in the Sect Tournament?
"Then I'll head over first."
This was Ji Yaoxue's second sentence. At first, it didn't sound like much. However, after careful consideration, it became even more problematic.
As the princess of Great Zhou, Ji Yaoxue was going to the second spectator area. Why would she tell Su Zimo that she would head over first?
Ji Yaoxue wouldn't have said that unless Su Zimo was going to head over as well!
However … was that possible?
Who were the people seated in the second spectator area? What right did a Foundation Establishment Cultivator like him have to do that?
Jun Hao looked around without batting an eyelid.
Many cultivators were excited and discussed fervently. Most of their discussions were about the third princess's peerless beauty and her relationship with Su Zimo.
There was also a group of people who were immersed in the scene Just Now and could not extricate themselves from it.
Other than him, no one else noticed the abnormality in Ji Yaoxue's words.
"Perhaps I'm thinking too much."
Jun Hao lamented internally.
"I've got it!"
Right then, a cultivator in the crowd suddenly said, as though he had discovered a huge secret.
"What?" Another person asked.
That person said slowly, "Did you guys notice? After the third princess sat down, there was only a single seat left in the second spectator area."
"That's right, so what?"
That person smiled smugly. "I'm willing to bet that that seat is definitely reserved for Mr. Mo!"
Many cultivators pondered for a moment before realization dawned on them.
"That's right, it must be Mr. Mo!"
"Yes, only Mr. Mo has that right."
"That seat is on par with the princes and princesses and can be said to be second only to one. Indeed, Mr. Mo is the only one who can suppress all the Perfected Jin Dan cultivators."
When he heard the discussions around him, Jun Hao's heart lightened as he heaved a long sigh of relief and laughed involuntarily.
"Since that seat is reserved for Mr. Mo, it has nothing to do with Su Zimo. In that case, I'm indeed thinking too much."
…
In reality, a few elders of True Fire Sect in the spectator area had seen Mr. Mo's appearance in the palace before.
However, there was still a huge distance between the spectator area and the sunken area. Coupled with the fact that there were a hundred thousand Foundation Establishment Cultivators, their attention was not on that area at all.
At the spectator area, most of the Perfected Jin Dan cultivators were drinking and chatting merrily.
Although the sect competition was a fight for Foundation Establishment Cultivators, for many Perfected Jin Dan cultivators, it was also a great opportunity to network and rope in factions.
"Senior brother, what are you thinking about?"
Liu Hui could not help but ask softly when she saw Xuan Yi's melancholic expression as he looked at the hundred thousand Foundation Establishment Cultivators in a daze.
Xuan Yi retracted his gaze and shook his head. "Nothing."
Just Now, there was a commotion in the crowd. In his daze, he seemed to have caught sight of a familiar green robe. However, it was drowned in the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Xuan Yi sighed gently, thinking that he was hallucinating due to his mental fatigue.
"Fellow Daoist Xuan Yi."
Right then, a greeting sounded from the side. Xuan Yi turned and saw that it was Perfected Being Cang Lang of Iridescent Clouds Palace.
Perfected Being Cang Lang raised his wine glass and asked with a smile, "I heard that there's an inner sect disciple in Misty Peak named Su Zimo. I wonder who he's under?"
Xuan Yi frowned. "Why do you ask, Fellow Daoist Cang Lang?"
"Fu, it's nothing."
Perfected Being Cang Lang chuckled. "I have some grudges with that lad and would like to ask for him from Misty Peak. I wonder if you can give me some face."
"No!"
Xuan Yi didn't even think about it and flatly refused.
Perfected Being Cang Lang narrowed his eyes slightly and his expression darkened as he said slowly, "That man killed two of my disciples. How should we settle the score?"
"So what if they died because they were inferior? Aren't you embarrassed that a Perfected Jin Dan cultivator like you is seeking revenge?" Xuan Yi sneered.
Perfected Being Cang Lang said coolly, "Xuan Yi, let me give you a piece of advice. Don't ruin the relationship between Iridescent Clouds Palace and Misty Peak just because of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator!"
"Can you represent Iridescent Clouds Palace, Perfected Being Cang Lang?"
It was just a few sentences and the two of them were already at odds with each other!
Right then, someone at the side laughed sinisterly. "Brother Cang Lang, there's no need to argue with him. Misty Peak is already on the decline and he's still so stubborn. He's just asking for trouble!"
"Sima Zhi, what are you trying to do?!" Xuan Yi's expression changed slightly.
Perfected Being Cang Lang smiled. "Brother Sima, what can I do for you?"
Sima Zhi of True Fire Sect said leisurely, "Misty Peak only brought a few people this time round. As long as our sects join forces during the fight for the Spirit Ranking, it won't matter even if Misty Peak has a five meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivator!"
"Alright, we'll let Misty Peak return empty-handed this time round without a single spot!"
A mocking look flashed through Perfected Being Cang Lang's eyes as he laughed. "One of the five major sects? Fufu, Misty Peak is done for! "
