Under the giant Sun, before the garden.
The young man who blocked Ling Xian's way and mocked him was now silent. His face was white and his fists were tightly clenched. He felt greatly humiliated.
Everyone here felt the same way.
The more they mocked Ling Xian before, the more humiliated they felt now.
At first, they thought Ling Xian was a country bumpkin. They thought he had no right to attend the gathering and was merely trying to fish in troubled waters. But after Fairy Wu personally welcomed him, it was the same as slapping them in the face.
Then, Fairy Wu revealed Ling Xian's identity and slapped them in the face again.
Being slapped in the face twice had already filled their hearts with humiliation and shame. Yet now, Ling Xian took out the invitation. This was the third slap in the face.
Though it wasn't as shocking as the previous two times, it was the same as rubbing salt on their wounds and made them feel even more pain!
Yet they had no ability to resist. They could only silently accept this humiliation.
At this, Ling Xian faintly grinned, "I have taken out the invitation. Since you won't verify it, then don't question me anymore. Or else …"
Or else what? He didn't speak. But everyone here understood and they all fell silent.
Everyone couldn't help but lower their head and didn't dare to look Ling Xian in the eye. They wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
This made Fairy Wu frown. After thinking about it for a while, she realized what was going on. Then, her expression turned cold as she glanced over everyone, "So much for being called Heaven's Favorites. I think you are a bunch of idiots who look down on others."
At those words, everyone's face turned even whiter. Fairy Wu's words were like a knife that stabbed into their hearts. Though they didn't feel any physical pain, their hearts hurt more and they were being tortured more!
At this, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. The anger in his heart disappeared and he smiled, "Fairy Wu, please."
Then, he marched forward in giant steps and walked into the Moon Inviting Garden with his head held high.
Fairy Wu hissed coldly and walked into the garden as well.
If this was any other time, she wouldn't have done this. Because doing this meant she would be offending a group of Heaven's Favorites. Though their capabilities were a level lower than hers, the background behind them was something she couldn't ignore.
But compared to a Heaven's Favorite with a limitless future, what was this?
Therefore, Fairy Wu chose to befriend Ling Xian. At least between these people and him, she chose the latter.
Ling Xian was very clear about this and he accepted it generously.
Only a fool would reject the goodwill of a peerless prodigy.
After seeing the scenery inside the garden, Ling Xian complimented, "Fairy Wu sure knows how to pick a place. This place truly is picturesque and extraordinary."
"You flatter me, Fellow Daoist. Please."
Fairy Wu extended one of her snow-white arms. Then, with light steps, she headed towards a palace.
Seeing this, Ling Xian followed up.
Very soon, the two of them walked into the main hall and saw a long table in front of them that was filled with spirit fruits and fine wine.
There were five people sitting at the table, three men and two women.
The man was dignified and had an extraordinary bearing, while the woman was as beautiful as a flower. They didn't emit any aura, but just by sitting there, they were as heavy as mountains, giving off an unfathomable feeling.
"Powerhouses!"
The moment he saw them, Ling Xian's expression froze and he evaluated these five people.
It was obvious that these five people were truly powerful. Or else he wouldn't have been able to judge them as powerhouses in an instant.
Seeing that he and Fairy Wu walked in together, the five people looked over and frowned unnoticeably. He was a little confused, but also a little surprised.
"Let me introduce you."
Fairy Wu smiled brightly and pointed at the handsome young man in blue, "This is the strongest descendant of the Feng Clan, Feng Xing Tian."
Then, she shifted her gaze towards the handsome man in armor, "This is the Young Master of the Chu Country. He is also the First Heaven's Favorite of the Chu Country, Chu Ren Xiong."
"This is the strongest descendant of the Wang Clan of the Luo Fu Mountain, Wang Jun."
Fairy Wu pointed at the expressionless, handsome man. In the end, she shifted her gaze towards the two beautiful women and smiled, "This one is Qin Yao and that one is Qin Xue. They are both apprentices of an omnipotent."
"Each one is more influential than the other."
Ling Xian exclaimed to himself. These days, he had investigated all the top forces in the East Domain and found out that the Feng Clan, the Wang Clan, and the Chu Country were all extremely powerful.
He has heard of these people's names. They were all top Heaven's Favorites of the East Domain.
"Fairy Wu, is this the person worthy of you personally greeting?"
The strongest descendant of the Wang Clan spoke softly. His eyes were sharp like swords as he stared at Ling Xian, judging him.
The other four did the same. They were curious just who Ling Xian was to make Fairy Wu personally greet him.
"Though you have never met him, I am sure you have heard of his name." Fairy Wu smiled like a flower and uttered out two words.
"Ling Xian."
At those words, everyone frowned as they remembered the rumor they heard not too long ago.
"The Ling Xian who got through all levels of the Heavenly Palace?" Wang Jun raised an eyebrow, a little surprised.
Fairy Wu nodded softly, "This friend is the unparalleled Heaven's Favorite who got through all levels of the Heavenly Palace."
Hearing her confirmation and looking at the calm Ling Xian, everyone's expression changed. They have all heard about this and knew how difficult it was to get through all levels of the Heavenly Palace.
Therefore, no matter how calm they were, they couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Interesting."
Wang Jun raised an eyebrow, looking extremely handsome. His eyes were like swords as he stared at Ling Xian. The way he was judging him was getting heavier.
This made Ling Xian frown and he was not happy.
Staring was normal, but what did he mean by judging?
To put it nicely, he was carefully examining him. To put it bluntly, he was questioning him. Therefore, he was naturally unhappy.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Ling. I've heard a lot about you these past few days."
The young master's physique was strong and his face was square. He looked extraordinarily handsome and extremely dominating. His bright eyes flickered with the desire to fight, and he seemed to be eager to give it a try.
"You are flattering me. You are the one who is famous."
Noticing the desire to fight in this person's eyes, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. He responded with a fearless smile.
"Haha, if there's a chance, let's fight. I really want to see just how strong the person who got through all levels of the Heavenly Palace is."
Chu Ren Xiong laughed brightly. His words were simple and direct.
"Alright."
Ling Xian softly smiled. Though he only said one word and his tone was very soft, there was no room for doubt. His calmness was full of dominance.
"Haha, it's a deal!"
Chu Ren Xiong laughed out loud. If Fairy Wu wasn't here, it wouldn't be appropriate to fight right now. He probably would've made a move right now and started a fight against Ling Xian.
"Please, take a seat." Fairy Wu smiled brightly.
Hearing this, Ling Xian marched forward and sat next to Fairy Wu. Then, he poured himself a cup of wine and planned on tasting it.
However, at this moment, a voice filled with murderous intent suddenly rang out, causing him to frown.
"Ling Xian, die!"
