Chapter 1661 - 1472: Temper

Soon, Xu Xu’s eyes widened, she first looked at Xuan Chuqing, then at Ye Tian, and finally, she was speechless.

Mad? Has her dear friend Xuan Chuqing gone mad? She’s made a mess of a great hand...

"Alright, let’s go inside." The white-bearded elder spoke: "We’ll talk more once we’re inside."

The Xu family and the Xuan family entered the City Lord’s Mansion.

Upon entering the City Lord’s Mansion, the atmosphere was indescribably lively.

The steward of the City Lord’s Mansion respectfully led the Xuan family and the Xu family towards the guest hall.

In the guest hall, glasses clinked, beautiful dancers were dancing, elegant singers were singing, maids and servants were offering various services and pouring wine, and guests were mingling with each other.

The atmosphere was very harmonious.

When the Xu family and the Xuan family arrived at the guest hall... naturally, they drew some attention.

Especially the Xuan family, whose strength and status were quite high in this place.

"Aunt Xuan, it’s actually you leading the team, hahaha, it seems that this time the Xuan family will secure a good ranking."

"The younger generation of the Xuan family is full of talent, and Miss Chuqing, who is 170,000 years old, certainly lives up to her name."

"Aunt Xuan, long time no see!"

......

Many people from various forces who had already arrived came over to greet them.

Xuan Jingping dealt with them one by one.

However, there were also those who glanced at the Xuan family, then withdrew their gaze, and even showed hostility.

Such as, a group of over ten people sitting in the center of the guest hall, led by a middle-aged woman who merely glanced at Xuan Jingping and then snorted coldly, completely ignoring them.

"That’s the Fu family, always at odds with the Xuan family. Our families have been blood enemies, always competing fiercely in every Secret Realm competition at the Buried Immortal Secret Realm." Xuan Chuqing softly introduced to Ye Tian beside her, specifically pointing out two very prominent young men in the Fu family: "One of them is named Fu Ren, and the other is Fu Yi, the most remarkable evils among the younger generation of the Fu family. Of course, they are far inferior to my brother, but they are indeed much stronger than I am now. Fu Ren ranks ninth on the Heaven Stepping List, and Fu Yi is eleventh."

Ye Tian followed Xuan Chuqing’s gaze and looked at Fu Ren and Fu Yi, then a strange expression flashed in the depths of his eyes, because he was certain Fu Yi was stronger!

Fu Yi was stronger than Fu Ren!

Moreover, much stronger.

Yet, the ranking on the Heaven Stepping List...

This Fu Yi is not simple, so much so that he gave Ye Tian a serious glance, quickly coming to a conclusion.

This Fu Yi actually hid his Martial Arts Realm.

He wasn’t merely at the surface level of Immortal King Eighth Layer, but Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm, and in Ye Tian’s view, Fu Yi’s actual combat power might even surpass Yue Yan from Taihua Cave Heaven, who was also at Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm.

He’s hiding quite deeply!

Just at this moment.

Another group of more than 20 people entered the guest hall.

Leading them was a middle-aged man, unexpectedly at the Peak of Eighth Transition Immortal Venerate Realm, stronger than Xuan Jingping, who had been the strongest in the guest hall before his arrival.

Now, this newly arrived middle-aged man is the strongest.

And with their arrival, even more guests in the hall greeted them.

"Mr. Sui, it’s surprising to see you personally leading the team!"

"With Mr. Sui leading, this time in the Secret Realm competition, the Sui family securing a top three or even fighting for the first place should be no problem."

"Mr. Sui, long time no see."

......

Even the proud Xuan Jingping rarely showed a hint of a smile on her face as she looked at the middle-aged man, cupping her hands and saying, "Mr. Sui."

"Jingping, it’s been years since we last met, yet you’re as radiant as ever, hahaha..." Mr. Sui stroked his beard and laughed, seemingly having a good relationship with Xuan Jingping.

"The Sui family is an ally of the Xuan family, but the Sui family’s strength surpasses that of the Xuan family." Xuan Chuqing whispered, slightly raising her hand to point at a man and a woman beside Mr. Sui: "They are the two participants from the Sui family this time, one named Sui Jian, the other named Sui Qingqing."

Upon mentioning Sui Jian, notably, Xuan Chuqing’s tone became somewhat peculiar, with a hint of restrained annoyance.

"Hum hum hum, you’d better watch out for Sui Jian, thinking of becoming my brother-in-law, you have to not only get through Aunt Xuan and the Xuan family but particularly myself, and also through Sui Jian. Among many outstanding young talents pursuing my sister, Sui Jian is the most devoted, and he’s extremely excellent, ranking seventh on the Heaven Stepping List, my grandfather even spoke highly of him." Luo Ningning glared at Ye Tian and said, somewhat gloatingly, "If he finds out that my sister has taken a liking to you, I guarantee he’ll want to finish you off, and inside the Secret Realm would be the perfect opportunity."

"Ning’er, stop talking." Xuan Chuqing furrowed her brows, feeling somewhat upset because what Luo Ningning said was true, and for this reason, she suddenly realized that letting Ye Tian enter the Secret Realm was indeed somewhat selfish, Ye Tian might be targeted inside the Secret Realm, facing danger, and so on.

She somewhat regretted inviting Ye Tian to participate.

Fear of what was anticipated.

At this moment, Sui Jian, seeing Xuan Chuqing, his eyes lit up, he directly stepped forward, approaching.

"Damn it!" Xuan Chuqing cursed under her breath, quickly reminding, "Ye Tian, if he comes over later to provoke you, don’t be impulsive, try not to offend him if possible. He is at the peak of Immortal King Ninth Level, and he’s been immersed in this realm for many years."

In one word, it’s extremely dangerous.

This person is very dangerous.

Anyone who ranks in the top ten of the Heaven Stepping List is not without danger.

"Chuqing..." Sui Jian approached, smiling, and spoke, his eyes solely on Xuan Chuqing, causing many present, especially the women, to feel envious to the point of tears, like Xuan Shiyang.

Sui Jian, simply perfect.

Whether in martial arts, or family background.

Moreover, Sui Jian is also very handsome and particularly gentle, particularly warm.

"Greetings, Aunt Xuan." Subsequently, Sui Jian bowed respectfully to Xuan Jingping, showing much politeness.

Xuan Jingping nodded, feeling very satisfied with Sui Jian.

Sadly, her niece Xuan Chuqing seems unappreciative.

Sui Jian has been pursuing Xuan Chuqing for at least tens of thousands of years, but to date, Xuan Chuqing hasn’t agreed, yet now she’s brought back from outside a young fellow at Upper Great Emperor Ninth Layer.

"Are you Mr. Yue from Taihua Cave Heaven? Sui Jian greets Mr. Yue." The next moment, Sui Jian looked at Yue Yan, smiling, with a rather humble demeanor, even slightly subdued.

And when Sui Jian said this, many, many people present then focused their gaze on Yue Yan.

Is it truly Mr. Yue from Taihua Cave Heaven?????

There was a rumor that Xuan Chuqing’s partner this time was Yue Yan.

But not many believed it, unexpectedly...

Is it true?

"Young Master Sui is too kind." Yue Yan reciprocated warmly, cupping his hands with a smile.

"Mr. Yue, with you partnering with Chuqing this time, Chuqing in the Secret Realm is indeed very safe, still, it’s up to Mr. Yue to take care of Chuqing, I thank you." Sui Jian continued.

These words were polite.

But, with a hidden agenda.

Yes, it was obviously telling Yue Yan that Xuan Chuqing is destined to be his woman, Sui Jian’s, therefore asking Yue Yan not to harbor any thoughts.

"Shut up! First, you’re nothing to me, who takes care of me doesn’t require your thanks! Second, who told you my partner for entering the Buried Immortal Secret Realm this time is Mr. Yue?" Xuan Chuqing directly retorted.

Her temper isn’t good.

Or rather, she has a temper.

Others think Sui Jian is excellent, as if he were the only man in the world, but she, Xuan Chuqing, simply doesn’t see eye to eye.

"Chuqing, how dare you speak to Sui Jian like that? He’s also for your own good." Xuan Jingping scolded harshly, her face looking displeased.

And the whole guest hall erupted in an uproar.

Completely stunned!!!!

Xuan Chuqing’s partner for entering the Secret Realm isn’t Yue Yan??????

What’s going on?
