Lin Xuan and the rest were about to leave when they saw a young man dressed in luxurious clothes walking towards them.
"Hahahaha! The birthday banquet has just begun and you're already leaving. Could it be that you find the food and wine of my residence not to your liking? If there's anything wrong with my hospitality, I'll apologize to all of you! "
Yu Qing Yun laughed heartily as he walked forward. His eyes sparkled as he looked at Lin Xuan and the rest.
Although he said that he was apologizing, he did not have the proper attitude. Instead, there was a hint of threat.
Lin Xuan said calmly, "Your Highness must be joking. We're just commoners. How can we deserve such courtesy from Your Highness?"
Yu Qing Yun smiled proudly. He was secretly disdainful. At least you know what's good for you!
However, Lin Xuan smiled playfully and said, "However, the food and wine are indeed a little inferior. I'm not used to it. Yes, I've already sent the congratulatory gift to the Duke of Qin. As for this banquet, I'll save it for the Duke of Qin's residence! Farewell! "
With that, Lin Xuan walked away.
Yu Qing Yun's expression changed abruptly and became extremely gloomy. He shouted coldly, "Stop! Lin Xuan, what's the meaning of this? "
Lin Xuan smiled and said, "Haven't I already expressed my intentions very clearly?"
"Lin Xuan, it seems like you don't intend to give my Duke of Qin's residence any face!"
Yu Qing Yun was so angry that the veins on his forehead were popping. He stared at Lin Xuan with murderous intent in his eyes.
Lin Xuan was unafraid. He sneered and said, "Your Highness, it's important to know one's own limits. I, Lin Xuan, know what I'm doing. But do you, Your Highness, really know what you're doing?"
"You!" Yu Qing Yun was so angry that he choked.
Things like confidence needed to be linked to strength.
If it was three days ago, Lin Xuan would indeed be quite fearful of the Duke of Qin's residence.
Unfortunately, three days was enough to change many things.
Now, not only had he integrated the Magic Lotus Sect and increased his power, but he had also just broken through to the Divine Astral Realm, so his strength had also increased greatly.
More importantly, after he mastered the Devil-Rinsing Golden Body, he once again possessed ten times the power of creation and could use the Devil-Lotus Seal, a strategic weapon of mass destruction.
Who in the entire Northern Wilderness could withstand the might of a Dao weapon?
He was certain that he, Lin Xuan, was the only one in the entire Northern Wilderness who possessed a Dao grade divine weapon.
This was because, generally speaking, those who possessed a Dao Weapon would have a cultivation that far surpassed the Divine Astral Realm, and even the Heavenly Transformation Realm. It was impossible for these powerful beings to stay in the Northern Barren Territory.
Yu Qing Yun was so angered by Lin Xuan that his face turned red, and his eyes were about to spit fire!
His bloodline was noble since he was young, and he even had the opportunity to compete for the throne of the Daqian dynasty. The belief that the world belonged to the king was deeply rooted, and no one around him dared to disobey him.
This also made him look down on people from the martial arts world.
But at this moment, he had never dreamed that a person from the martial arts world, who he thought was of a lowly status, would not give him or King Qin's Mansion any face.
He really wanted to summon the King Qin's Mansion's armored soldiers to capture and kill this audacious guy in front of him, so that he would know the difference between superior and inferior.
However, he began to hesitate.
If he really did that, not to mention whether he could capture Lin Xuan, even if he did, would he still be able to hold the birthday banquet?
Yu Qing Yun had received a comprehensive education since he was young, so he was not a complete playboy. He was still somewhat shrewd.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the killing intent in his heart. Then, he put on a sincere smile and cupped his hands. "Lord Lin, I have offended you just now. I hope you can forgive me, Lord Lin! Today, my father used the birthday banquet as an excuse to invite the leaders of the various forces in the martial arts world. His intention was to discuss the matter of fighting against the Dragons clan. Lord Lin, as the Sect Master of the Magic Lotus Sect, you have a great responsibility. How can you be absent? "
Lin Xuan furrowed his brows, seriously pondering for a moment before he said, "Oh? So that's the case. My Magic Lotus Sect is naturally duty-bound to fight against the Dragons clan! However, the food and wine in the King Qin's Mansion is really too inferior. I am not used to it. Why don't we come back to discuss after the banquet? "
Yu Qing Yun was so angry that he almost exploded. His face turned green and white.
He suppressed his anger and ordered the housekeeper beside him, "Men, arrange the best seats for Lord Lin and the others. Serve the best food and wine!"
"Yes, sir. This old servant will do it right away." The old housekeeper quickly responded and left.
"Lord Lin, are you satisfied?" Yu Qing Yun looked at Lin Xuan and said with an expressionless face.
"Whether I'm satisfied or not, we will only know after we try it. Let's go. We must give face to Your Highness!"
Lin Xuan smiled leisurely and led everyone into the main hall.
Of course, he did not come here today for the banquet. He was also interested in the alliance. Now that he was here, he knew when to stop.
Yu Qing Yun looked at Lin Xuan's back and a cold murderous intent appeared in his eyes. His face was terrifyingly gloomy.
"Your Highness, His Highness wants you to go over!" A housekeeper came over to pass on the message.
Yu Qing Yun raised his eyebrows and sighed helplessly. He turned and left.
In a study room, a burly man with a dignified face was waving a brush and splashing ink, writing a big 'longevity' word.
After he finished writing, the man laughed self-deprecatingly and threw it into the wastepaper basket.
"Father, why did you summon me?" Yu Qing Yun walked in and asked carefully.
Qin King Yu Guang looked at his son and said with a dignified face, "Yun 'er, do you know your mistake?"
Yu Qing Yun's face changed and he knelt down, "I know my mistake. Please punish me, father!"
"First, tell me what you did wrong."
The Duke of Qin sat down, accepted a cup of tea from a maid, and took a sip.
Yu Qing Yun's eyes flashed and said, "Father, I shouldn't have started a conflict with Lin Xuan at this time."
Qin King said with a cold gaze, "You did wrong three times! First, you were arrogant and had no respect for anyone. You actually used such a small trick to embarrass a new talent in the martial arts world. How childish and laughable!
Second, you overestimated yourself. You didn't even know your opponent's strength and randomly made enemies. Do you really think that with your status as a prince, you can control everyone? Wasn't Qi Feibao's ending enough a warning to you?
Third, you did things based on your own interests and didn't consider the big picture. Lin Xuan is the Sect Master of the Magic Lotus Sect. The other five sects of the Demon Abyss also see him as their leader. If the Demon Abyss didn't join, wouldn't this so-called martial arts world alliance be a joke?
I've taught you many times that as a leader, you must consider the big picture! These people of the martial arts world gathered in the Northern Wilderness. Although they all have their own goals, their existence has no conflict of interest with us. Instead, we need to rely on each other. But you … "
Yu Qing Yun's face turned pale and cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "I know my mistake. Father, please punish me!"
The Duke of Qin shook his head helplessly. He couldn't help but say, "Get up! Remember, don't provoke Lin Xuan again! Lin Xuan is not someone you can provoke! "
"I will remember."
Although Yu Qing Yun agreed respectfully on the surface, he was actually very dissatisfied in his heart.
Previously, he was disobeyed by Lin Xuan and had already suppressed a bellyful of anger. Now that he was being lectured by his father, it made him even more furious.
He didn't dare to be angry at his father, but he put all the blame on Lin Xuan. He secretly made up his mind that soon, he would tear Lin Xuan into pieces. Otherwise, he would vent the anger in his heart!
Just as Qin King warned his son not to provoke Lin Xuan, in the banquet hall outside, someone else had already provoked Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan and the rest sat at the top of the banquet hall. They were eating delicacies that they had never seen before and drinking the best spirit wine in the Summer Region. They were very satisfied.
Lin Xuan tasted the wine while watching Ji Xueyan eat with interest. Ji Xueyan's little mouth did not stop and she ate very quickly. However, because she was beautiful and her actions were elegant, there was a different kind of interest to her.
Now that Lin Xuan already had the power of creation, there was a great chance that he could heal Ji Xueyan's soul. He planned to find an opportunity to give it a try.
Unfortunately, if he healed this little girl, it would be difficult for him to see such an interesting scene in front of him again.
Suddenly, a group of people stormed into the banquet hall, attracting everyone's attention.
"Lord Tie, it's that woman! She's Ji Xueyan. She was also present when I was killed. It's very likely that she's in cahoots with the murderer! "
A resentful and arrogant voice rang out in the banquet hall.
