Chapter 720 - 720 720 Met Last Night

720: Chapter 720: Met Last Night?

(First update) 720: Chapter 720: Met Last Night?

(First update) “This is troublesome.”

Long Yan’s eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

Although Qian Qiuxue had indeed invited him, she hadn’t given him an invitation card.

Without an invitation card, he wouldn’t even be able to enter the door, making things awkward.

“Shentu Lang, you should take a piss and look at yourself.

If Qian Qiuxue invited you, then I must have been raised by a stepmother.”

The mockery on Xuanxiao’s face became even more intense, having guessed that Long Yan didn’t have an invitation card.

“Young Clan Leader, the Saintess has informed us that she forgot to give you the invitation.

You may go in directly.”

At this moment, a guard wearing armor stepped forward and respectfully saluted Long Yan.

“What…

”

Hearing this, Xuanxiao’s face instantly froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently.

His expression looked like he had eaten a mouthful of shit.

Shentu Lang indeed received Qian Qiuxue’s invitation.

How could that be possible?

Shentu Lang was a million miles away from the word ‘genius.’

“Xuanxiao, remember your place.”

Long Yan’s lips slightly curved into a faintly wicked smile.

He gave Xuanxiao a playful glance and then entered the Jingu Building directly.

“Damn it!”

The color of Xuanxiao’s face darkened in an instant.

“Why would she invite such a piece of trash?

What is Qian Qiuxue thinking?”

Xuanxiao was also puzzled, completely unable to understand why Shentu Lang would receive an invitation.

Could it be because he was the Young Clan Leader of the Shentu Family?

“No wonder this is the Golden Treasury of the Supreme Golden City.”

After entering the Jingu Building, Long Yan was also somewhat astonished.

The level of luxury inside the Jingu Building exceeded his expectations, even the ground was covered in carpets made from the skin of Emperor-level demonic beasts.

It was his first time witnessing such an extravagant pub.

Walking deeper into the building, he soon arrived at a spacious courtyard.

The courtyard was extensive, with pavilions and terraces, all adorned with extremely luxurious and extravagant decorations.

Drinking and reveling in such a place would undoubtedly be a pleasure.

“Quite a few people here.”

At this time, there were already many people inside the courtyard, enjoying fine wine and delicacies.

These were brought out by Qian Qiuxue, and they were definitely not ordinary.

Those who could come here were all geniuses.

Long Yan recognized some of them, like Huangfu Wushuang, Gu Chunyang, Yue Qingcheng, Young Master Qilin, Godson, Sheng Ruxin – these people were genuine geniuses that he had seen in the Demon Sky Remains.

There were also others he didn’t know, each possessing extraordinary strength and talent, the rising stars of the younger generation.

“There’s not a single person from the Southern Wasteland Continent.

It seems that the Southern Wasteland Continent has truly declined.”

Among those present, there was not a single genius from the Southern Wasteland Continent.

Of course, if a genius from the Southern Wasteland Continent came here, they would no longer be considered a genius.

“An auction has attracted so many geniuses, all representing various forces, I suppose.”

These geniuses who came to the Supreme Golden City must represent the major forces behind them.

Long Yan’s arrival instantly attracted the gazes of many people, who showed surprise in their eyes.

“Isn’t that Shentu Lang?

How did he get here?”

“This is a gathering of geniuses.

What is Qian Qiuxue thinking inviting someone like him?

He’s a notorious prodigal, completely unrelated to geniuses.”

“Maybe he sneaked in himself.

After all, he’s a crazy pursuer of Qian Qiuxue.

The toad wants to eat swan meat, he’s not ashamed.”

“Don’t say that.

Maybe Qian Qiuxue did invite him.”

…

People whispered amongst themselves, acting as if Long Yan wasn’t there.

As for these mocking words, Long Yan just brushed them off with a smile, not caring in the slightest.

He found an empty seat and sat down, enjoying his drinks alone.

“This wine is really good.”

Upon tasting the wine, Long Yan’s eyes lit up instantly.

This was definitely a fine wine, even better than the Hundred Flower Brew he obtained in the Qing Emperor Dojo.

Such a treasure could only be brought out by Qian Qiuxue.

Time passed slowly, and a stream of people began to arrive, most of whom Long Yan didn’t recognize.

“Emperor Ye is here.”

Suddenly, everyone’s gaze was drawn to a figure entering the courtyard.

That figure, clad in black, had a pair of eyes as dark as the night sky, unfathomably deep.

An invisible aura of authority emanated from him.

This person was none other than the first genius of the Wangchuan Family and the first genius of the Emperor Domain, Emperor Ye.

“Late Golden Body Realm.”

Long Yan’s gaze fell on Emperor Ye, and he could immediately see Ye’s cultivation base – Late Golden Body Realm.

“No wonder he’s the first genius of the Emperor Domain, his cultivation speed is indeed extraordinary.”

During the Demon Sky Remains event, Emperor Ye was only in the Early Golden Body Realm.

In less than two months, he had reached the Late Golden Body Realm, achieving a remarkably fast cultivation speed.

The first genius of the Emperor Domain was truly living up to his name.

Emperor Ye was aloof.

After entering the courtyard, he didn’t greet the others and just took a seat in an empty spot, then closed his eyes to rest, paying no attention to the others.

An hour later, more than fifty people had arrived.

“Qian Qiuxue is here.”

At this moment, a graceful figure entered from outside, and it was Qian Qiuxue.

Qian Qiuxue was still dressed in a purple skirt, but she was obviously more elaborately dressed today, looking even more stunning.

The gaze of everyone present was immediately attracted to her.

“This girl is definitely a femme fatale.”

Long Yan’s gaze also fell on Qian Qiuxue and was drawn to her as well.

A beauty like her was rare in the Emperor Domain.

Among those present, only one person remained undisturbed, still resting with his eyes closed – Emperor Ye.

“I’m sorry to have kept you all waiting.”

Qian Qiuxue slightly leaned forward.

Her autumn-like eyes swept over the crowd, lingering on Long Yan for a moment.

“Saintess, you’re too polite.”

No one dared to act arrogantly in front of Qian Qiuxue, as her status was definitely not lower than anyone else present.

“Everyone here is a genius of the Emperor Domain, and you are all destined to become powerful in the future.

The auction is about to begin, and I have invited you all here because your presence is an honor to me.

Please feel free to interact with one another.

Later, I have gifts to give to everyone.”

Qian Qiuxue’s oriole-like voice resonated, bringing a sense of cheerfulness just by listening.

Next, a scene that surprised everyone occurred.

Qian Qiuxue actually walked toward Long Yan and sat down directly opposite him.

“Young Clan Leader, long time no see.”

Qian Qiuxue looked at Long Yan, her face full of smiles, as she spoke softly.

“Weren’t we together all of last night?”

Long Yan raised his head slightly, looking at Qian Qiuxue, and casually uttered a sentence, his tone playful.

Qian Qiuxue’s beautiful eyes flashed, the smile on her face unwavering, neither admitting nor denying.

The meaning of this conversation changed when it fell on the ears of others, especially for those who admired Qian Qiuxue.

Their hearts were filled with grief.
