Since the Flower Valley was currently overcrowded, the guest rooms were almost fully occupied. Only a few of the more luxurious guest rooms were still available. Therefore, the room Xing Jue and the others had booked could be considered as one of the better palaces in the Flower Valley.
However, there were many rooms in such a luxurious palace. The hall was filled with people from all sorts of factions and people from all sorts of backgrounds.
When Xing Jue and the others entered the hall, countless pairs of eyes shot towards Xing Jue and the others. In the end, their gazes stopped on Li Xiaohan's alluring figure, as well as her beautiful face. Inadvertently, they even heard the sound of people swallowing their saliva.
Since Xing Jue and the others wanted to enjoy the flowers in peace, they did not want to attract unnecessary trouble. Therefore, Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan paid no attention to these impudent gazes. Instead, they followed the old man and walked up the stairs, intending to enter their respective rooms.
However, just as Xing Jue stepped into the pavilion, the space in front of him suddenly wiggled, and the figure of a man appeared.
The man was wearing a luxurious robe. There was a faint glow on the robe. It was obviously a Great Treasure. However, the Great Treasure was only a low-grade Great Treasure. At this moment, the man was staring at Li Xiaohan with a smile. However, it was worth mentioning that this man actually possessed the strength of a low-level Battle-King.
"Eh, young master Ximen, may I ask what business you have with me?"
After the man appeared, before Xing Jue could say anything, the old man who received Xing Jue stepped forward and spoke. From his respectful appearance, this man should be someone with a high status.
"This young man is Ximen Guang. May I know this young lady's name?"
"Can you be friends with this young man?"
However, Ximen Guang did not pay any attention to the old man. Instead, he walked straight to Li Xiaohan's side and spoke to her with an evil smile on his face. However, the way he said 'young man' was very smooth.
At this moment, when they saw Ximen Guang suddenly appear, some of the people present began to look at Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan with sympathetic gazes. That was because they had a good understanding of this man's special identity.
"Get lost ~!"
However, what caused everyone to be astonished was that Li Xiaohan's reply to this man was actually such an ear-piercing one. At this moment, not mentioning the face of this man, everyone present was already exclaiming in shock. They were unable to imagine what would happen to someone who dared to have such an attitude towards Ximen Guang.
"Hahaha, what a hot chick. I like it."
However, after a moment of silence, Ximen Guang did not cower. Instead, he began to laugh lewdly. There was a hint of savagery in his laughter, as if Li Xiaohan was something that he was determined to obtain.
"If you don't scram, I'll kill you."
However, right at this moment, a voice filled with coldness suddenly came out from Xing Jue's mouth. Upon hearing Xing Jue's words, everyone present was even more shocked. One must know that Xing Jue and his group had concealed their auras, so they were unable to sense the strength of Xing Jue, Li Xiaohan, and Xu Lin 'er.
However, a man who did not have any aura actually dared to speak to Ximen Guang in such a manner. Everyone present was even more worried for Xing Jue. This was because Ximen Guang was quite famous in the Eastern Region. It was not only because of his powerful strength of a Low-Level Combat King, but also because of the power behind him.
However, just when everyone thought that Xing Jue was dead for sure, Ximen Guang was startled. He actually sensed a hint of danger from Xing Jue's previous words.
However, Ximen Guang was after all a person with status in the Eastern Region. Even though he felt a sliver of danger, he would not ignore Xing Jue's ridicule just because of it. Otherwise, if news of this matter were to spread, he would not be able to continue living in the Eastern Region.
"What arrogance! I really want to see who's going to kill who today."
Thinking up to this point, Ximen Guang let out a furious roar. As he spoke, he prepared to attack Xing Jue.
However, Xing Jue completely ignored Ximen Guang's actions. With Ximen Guang's strength of a Low-Level Combat King, Xing Jue could easily kill him with a single slap.
"Young master Ximen Guang, aren't you looking down on our Golden Silver Mountain Villa a little too much by using force in our territory?" However, right at this moment, an old man's voice suddenly rang out from below the hall.
Upon hearing this voice, Ximen Guang, who was on top of the pavilion, took a few steps back. This was because the seemingly ordinary voice contained a terrifying pressure.
"High level Combat King?"
At this moment, Xing Jue was intimidated by the pressure. However, Xing Jue relied on his powerful strength to resist it. Furthermore, Xing Jue was able to sense the strength of the old man from the pressure. Soon after, he couldn't help but curiously cast his gaze below the pavilion.
Only then did he discover that there were three red-robed old men standing below the pavilion with their hands behind their backs. The old man in the lead had a head full of grizzled hair that was neatly coiled into a phoenix crown, and a domineering aura was present between his brows. He was the old man who had shouted at Ximen Guang earlier. He was a High-Level Combat King, and the two behind him also possessed the strength of Mid-Level Combat Kings.
At this moment, the old man in the lead was looking at Xing Jue with an astonished gaze. He was most likely shocked by the fact that he couldn't shake Xing Jue. Although he had already guessed that Xing Jue wasn't an ordinary person, he didn't expect Xing Jue to possess such strength.
To be able to resist his pressure, one had to be at least a Mid-Level Combat King. The appearance of such a young Mid-Level Combat King was worthy of his attention.
"Hehe, so it's Elder Jin. I was just joking with him. I didn't expect Elder Jin to misunderstand."
When this Elder Jin appeared, Ximen Guang hurriedly greeted him with a smile. From this, it could be seen that even though he had a special identity, he was still afraid of this Golden Silver Mountain Villa's elder. After all, the powers in the inner area weren't something that the powers behind him could afford to offend.
"En, that's good."
After hearing his words, Elder Jin faintly smiled. With a wave of his sleeve, he walked out of the hall.
"Pay attention to those three men and one woman. See if they have any connection with the recently rising Asura Palace."
After walking out of the hall, Elder Jin tilted his head and said to the elder beside him. After the elder agreed, he swaggered off.
"Hmph, consider yourself lucky. However, you better not participate in the fight for the Demonic Lotus Fruit three days from now. If you do, I'll make sure you suffer."
After the elders left, Ximen Guang let out a cold snort, before fusing back into space under the astonished gazes of the crowd. He had likely returned to his own room. Due to everything that had happened earlier, he had indeed lost some face.
However, in the face of Ximen Guang's threat, Xing Jue merely smiled. He wasn't afraid in the slightest. On the contrary, Xing Jue also wanted to teach Ximen Guang a lesson when he snatched the Demonic Lotus Fruit. For Xing Jue, the fact that he dared to take liberties with Li Xiaohan was a capital offense.
"Young master, Ximen Guang is the young hall master of the Soaring Tiger Hall, one of the three great factions of the Eastern Region."
After Xing Jue entered the guest room, the elder who received Xing Jue kindly reminded him, "Therefore, it's best that you don't provoke him."
Although the elder's experience told him that Xing Jue was no ordinary person, he didn't think that Xing Jue could contend against the Soaring Tiger Hall. After all, it was one of the true overlords of the Eastern Region.
"Thank you for the reminder. I will take note." Hearing the elder's reminder, Xing Jue faintly smiled.
Although Xing Jue wasn't afraid of Ximen Guang, Xing Jue was rather touched by the elder's kindness.
"Looks like this Gold and Silver Villa isn't simple."
After the elder left, Xing Jue opened the window and muttered to himself as he looked down at the Gold and Silver Villa's elder, who was sizing up the surrounding crowd.
This was because Xing Jue had heard what Elder Jin had said to the other Gold and Silver Villa's elder. The elder who was currently observing the crowd outside the main hall was the person in charge of observing Xing Jue. However, although he appeared to be observing the crowd, he was actually using his Soul Strength to probe Xing Jue.
However, with his Soul Strength of a mid-level Combat King, he was unable to sense Xing Jue's strength. Not to mention him, even if it was someone ten or a hundred times stronger than him, under the protection of Xing Jue's Soul Devouring Order, they would still be unable to sense Xing Jue's true strength, as well as his whereabouts.
However, the most important thing was that Xing Jue could sense that the Gold and Silver Villa didn't just want to occupy the Flower Valley. Seeing how much importance they placed on the eastern region's powers, Xing Jue felt that it was highly possible that the Gold and Silver Villa was also planning something against the eastern region's powers.
However, no matter who it was, as long as they tried to stop Xing Jue from dominating the eastern region, Xing Jue wouldn't be polite to them. That was because becoming the overlord of the eastern region was the basic requirement for Xing Jue to become one of the powers in the inner region.
After a night's rest, Xing Jue brought Li Xiaohan and Su Lin 'er out of the inn and headed toward the sea of flowers below the valley.
After the Gold and Silver Chamber of Commerce's construction, the sea of flowers was no longer surrounded by bare rock walls. Instead, it was a viewing plaza that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. At this moment, the viewing plaza was already packed with people. Fortunately, Xing Jue and the other two had already purchased a limited number of seats before the examination.
After the three of them took their seats, they were even more shocked by the sea of demonic lotuses that was right in front of them. Although the sea of demonic lotuses hadn't bloomed yet, an intoxicating fragrance was already being emitted from them, causing them to feel relaxed and comfortable. Furthermore, the sea of pink flowers was a feast for the eyes.
