Chapter 1400: Celebration Banquet (4)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Duanmu Ying was originally hiding in the crowd and trying her best to avoid the people she was familiar with. However, because she could not find the Nine Nether King and the people from the Nine Nether Holy Land for a long time, she was a little anxious. She kept appearing to ask about the situation, but she was discovered.
If they found out, so be it. She had not done anything shameful. She was just attending a banquet. At most, she would leave.
“Huo Lieyun, you didn’t make any fixed invitation cards, nor did you confirm the partic.i.p.ants of the banquet. Is there anything wrong with me coming?”
“There’s nothing wrong, but you should know very well that such a banquet is not for you, right? If you admit that you don’t know your place, then I have nothing to say.” Huo Lieyun naturally knew that Duanmu Ying had once made things difficult for Xue Fanxin, and he also knew about the Duanmu family.
He had no choice. After all, he liked to know people’s business!
Don’t think he didn’t know that the Duanmu family had always been aiming for the position of the Nine Nether Consort. Duanmu Cun had relied on the fact that he was a holy envoy of the Nine Nether Holy Land to send his younger sister, Duanmu Qian, to the Nine Nether Holy Land. The outcome was very tragic.
Now that Duanmu Ying had appeared again, she must have designs on the Nine Nether King.
This Duanmu family was indeed not good.
“Isn’t it just a lousy banquet? Who cares? I’ll leave now.” Duanmu Ying had already confirmed that she could not see the Nine Nether King and the people from the Nine Nether Holy Land here, so she did not want to waste any more time and planned to leave directly.
But at this moment, Xue Fanxin suddenly stood out and blocked the path in front of her. She smiled coldly and said, “My territory is not a place you can come and go as you please.”
“Xue Fanxin, what do you want?” Duanmu Ying was actually very afraid of Xue Fanxin. When she thought of the terrifying strength Xue Fanxin had displayed in the New Students Secret Realm trial and the outcomes of Feng Xiyu, the Wind Emperor, Elder Sang, and Elder Ji Yuan, she was very panicked.
If she really provoked this Nine Nether Consort, her outcome would not be much better than those people.
Initially, she did not want to attend this banquet, but when she thought of being able to come into close contact with the Nine Nether King and the people from the Nine Nether Holy Land here, no matter how afraid she was, she had to come bravely. In the end…
This d.a.m.ned Xue Fanxin. She must have deliberately not let the Nine Nether King come.
“I believe you know what happened to Duanmu Qian, right? Do you want to have the same outcome as her?”
“Xue Fanxin, don’t act recklessly. My brother is a holy envoy of the Nine Nether Holy Land.”
“That was once a Holy Envoy, but he’s no longer one. Even if your brother is still a Holy Envoy of the Nine Nether Holy Land, who do you think a mere Holy Envoy is in front of me?”
“You…”
“I’m in a good mood today, so I won’t dispute with you. Go back and send a message to the Duanmu family. They’d best put away their thoughts, or their outcome will be very tragic. Although I punished Li Yu for a.s.sa.s.sinating me some time ago, it’s not over yet, so just you wait.”
Li Yu a.s.sa.s.sinating her was most likely because the Duanmu family was adding fuel to the fire.
She would not be so kind as to let go of a family that wanted to a.s.sa.s.sinate her.
Duanmu Ying was already so frightened by Xue Fanxin’s aura that he did not even dare to speak. In the end, he had no choice but to leave with a gray face.
As for Zhang Haocheng, who had brought Duanmu Ying to the banquet, his expression was abnormally ugly. His brothers, who were originally close to him, had gradually distanced themselves from him.
Xuanyuan Yunxing still had some weight among these people. Zhang
Haocheng had openly disregarded Xuanyuan Yunxing’s words and brought Duanmu Ying here. Clearly, he had already been marginalized by Xuanyuan
Yunxing. The others naturally would not be any closer to Zhang Haocheng..
