Chapter 30 The Best Sight in the Imperial Capital!

Both Ye Xuan and Ye Ling were stunned upon seeing this.

Ye Xuan shook his head after a while. “Such a familiar feeling!” he said.

It was the same in Qing City. There, strangers would only wanted to make friends with influential people. And those who deemed themselves influential would also only look for friends who would be valuable to them.

“Brother, this fella is looking down on you. Do you want me to take revenge for you?” Lu Ming, who was standing beside Ye Xuan all this while, said indignantly.

Ye Xuan gave the little fat boy a look before shaking his head and smiling. “Birds of the same feather flock together. It’s common.”

Lu Ming wanted to speak, but his father came walking over at this moment. There was a young man in a long yellow robe in front of him about 26 years of age. He looked handsome, and there was a faint authoritative aura between his eyes.

The man walked up to Ye Xuan and took a glance at him before smiling. “This must be Brother Ye Xuan,” he said.

Ye Xuan turned to look at Lu Xiaoran, and the Chatelain hurriedly explained, “Young friend Ye Xuan, this is Jiang Niansheng, the First Prince of the Jiang Country.”

The First Prince!

Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment before he cupped his fists and greeted the prince, “I’m Ye Xuan of Qing City.”

He sounded neither servile nor overbearing!

The First Prince nodded and replied with a smile, “Since you’re someone Chatelain Lu thinks highly of, Brother Ye Xuan, I’ve to get know more about you in future!”

Before Ye Xuan could speak, a somewhat excited voice rang out from the plaza, “Mo Suiqing’s here.”

Mo Suiqing!

Upon hearing the person, everyone’s gaze was instantly averted to the stairs.

Even the First Prince turned to look. He straightened his clothes with his hands before walking over.

Lu Xiaoran wanted to speak upon seeing the prince leaving, but he ended up swallowing his words. He was obviously from on the First Prince’s side, and he wanted to introduce Ye Xuan to him. As he was afraid that Ye Xuan would disapprove, he did not reveal too much about the youth. He wanted to tell the prince more about Ye Xuan after seeing that he was indifferent, but he stopped himself after reminding himself that Ye Xuan was a Sword Cultivator and would not have liked him to do that.

It would be fine if he failed to get Ye Xuan into the prince’s good books, but if it disgusted Ye Xuan, it would defeat the purpose of doing so in the first place!

Upon the watchful gaze of everyone present, a woman walked up the flight of stairs to the fourth storey of the building.

She was of about 20 or so years of age, and she was dressed in a long, fiery red dress. Her was tall and her figure extremely slim. Her features were incredibly exquisite; she had beautiful eyebrows and sparkling eyes, while her face was porcelain white and her skin looked extremely soft. Her eyes were especially round and looked like the stars in the night sky. Just one look at them would captivate anyone instantly.

She was extremely beautiful!

Even Ye Xuan could not help but steal a few more glances at her.

He would never stop himself from looking at beautiful objects or people, but it was purely out of appreciation; he did not harbor any other type of intentions.

Ye Xuan turned his gaze away to Lu Xiaoran, who was standing beside him. “Who’s that, senior?”

Lu Xiaoran smiled as he replied, “Mo Suiqing, the most beautiful person in the Imperial Capital!”

The best sight in the Imperial Capital!

Ye Xuan paused before asking instinctively, “What about An Lanxiu?”

Even though the woman before him was extremely beautiful, it would be overstating her beauty to claim that she looked better than An Lanxiu.

Lu Xiaoran smiled before replying, “National Warrior An’s famous not because of her looks, and the impression she leaves on people far exceeds her beauty alone. Do you understand, my young friend?”

Ye Xuan understood upon hearing the Chatelain.

Everyone’s attention instantly turned to Mo Suiqing the moment she appeared, and everyone surrounded her, just like the stars would congregate around the moon.

Lu Xiaoran said suddenly, “Mo Suiqing’s not only beautiful. She comes from the Mo Family, an ancient aristocratic family that even the royal family’s wary of. Now that the two princes of Jiang Country are fighting over the inheritance of the throne, whoever manages to marry her will most likely become Crown Prince. Unfortunately, her expectations are extremely high, and she once declared that no man in Jiang Country was worthy of her hand.”

At this moment, Ye Ling, who was standing beside Ye Xuan, piped up, “I think my big brother is worthy of her!”

Ye Xuan glared at her before replying, “I’m great to you, but to others, I’m not even worth a blade of grass!”

Ye Ling smiled sweetly and hugged her brother’s arm tightly.

In her eyes, her brother was worthy of any woman in this world!

Lu Xiaoran laughed heartily. “Don’t think too lowly of yourself, my young friend. You’re a talented young man, and if you have the mind to accomplish things, anything will be possible!”

He did not know who was behind Ye Xuan, but he knew that it was a fact that the youth was safe and sound even after killing an elder of the Drunken Fairy Building, and after that Floorlord Han even died!

Ye Xuan shook his head and smiled. He took one look at Mo Suiqing and noticed that she was haughty in nature. As such, he would never waste his time on her.

In his opinion, two people should come together mainly because they felt right for each other and if their characters matched. Even though talent and potential were also necessary, but he felt it would be pointless to build a relationship based on those two factors, along with family background.

It would be a love based on how much money one had. What was the point of such a relationship?

The banquet began soon enough, and the Ye siblings, Lu Xiaoran and his son had an entire table to themselves. Their table was filled with all kinds of dishes, and yet more kept coming continuously.

The siblings and Lu Ming ate happily. Ye Xuan and his sister had got used to living in poverty, and they had never tasted any kind of expensive food before. As for the little fat boy, he was purely greedy!

Everyone around them was either busy making acquaintances or toasting each other. Only the three of them were busy eating!!

Lu Xiaoran shook his side and laughed bitterly as he saw this. However, there was nothing he could do about it. He knew his son better than anyone else, and it was impossible to get his son to speak like a hypocrite; he might even offend some people. As for Ye Xuan… he felt that Ye Xuan set his sights extremely high and did not bother mixing with the others… but he did not know that everyone had run away when he introduced himself as a ‘recreational practitioner’!

Ye Xuan could do nothing about that!

“Damnit, what’s the purpose of asking what your family did before someone would make friends with you? Isn’t that stupid?” he thought.

After a while, Lu Xiaoran turned his attention far away to his front. “You guys eat first, I spotted a few old acquaintances, and I’ll go over to greet them!” he said.

None of them answered him, and Lu Xiaoran shook his head and smiled before getting up to leave the table.

Ye Ling picked a huge chicken drumstick for Ye Xuan. “Big Brother, you should eat more nutritious food,” she said.

She then picked a stalk of Chinese cabbage and placed it in Lu Ming’s bowl. “Little fatty, you have to lose weight. Vegetables are yummy, you should have more of them!”

The little fat boy took one glance at the stalk of vegetable in his bowl and lamented, “You’re too biased, Sister Ling.”

Ye Ling gave out a delicate laugh as she heard him. She picked out a piece of meat braised in red sauce for Ye Xuan, telling him, “Big Brother, this is delicious, the meat is so soft…”

The little fat boy was speechless upon seeing her actions. “Humph, when I get back, I’m getting my mum to give me a sister, no, two!”

The siblings looked at each other and broke out into laughter soon after.

At the other end, a woman who was wearing a face veil had appeared beside Mo Suiqing. She was Han Xiangmeng, and she had arrived a short while ago.

Even though she was conversing with Mo Suiqing, her eyes kept falling on Ye Xuan. She had not expected that he would have come to the banquet as well.

Mo Suiqing noticed that her friend kept looking at Ye Xuan, who was seated some distance away from them. “Xiangmeng, do you know that person?”

Han Xiangmeng nodded slightly.

Mo Suiqing laughed as she continued, “He must be someone important, to have drawn your attention. Tell me, which family is he heir of?”

Han Xiangmeng shook her head and replied, “We only met once or twice, and we’re not exceptionally familiar with each other.”

The corners of Mo Suiqing’s lips curled slightly and a foxy smile appeared on her face. “Not exceptionally familiar, yet you kept looking at him. What, did you fall for him?”

She looked far away at Ye Xuan before continuing, “He looks pretty handsome. You have pretty good foresight!”

Han Xiangmeng shook her head as she replied, “Don’t spout nonsense. I met him twice before, and I didn’t expect for him to appear here.”

Mo Suiqing looked around them before laughing. “There’s nothing strange about him appearing here. There are geniuses from each city of Jiang Country here, and it’s beneficial for them to get to know more people. In today’s society, apart from being strong, one has to have a good network, isn’t that right?”

Han Xiangmeng replied casually, “Have you seen him making acquaintances with anyone?”

Mo Suiqing paused for a while before taking another look at Ye Xuan. “After hearing you say that, he does look a little unique,” she said, a little surprised.

Han Xiangmeng shook her head and said, “Let’s stop talking about him. His business is not our concern.”

Mo Suiqing kept shaking her head, however. “I’m a little curious, though. Come, let’s go over and get to know him better!”

Han Xiangmeng’s expression changed slightly as she frantically said, “Suiqing, let’s not offend him, he…”

“Offend?”

Mo Suiqing laughed as she replied, “You chose such a strange term to use. You seem to be a little fearful of him, what happened exactly?”

Before Han Xiangmeng could reply, Mo Suiqing cut her off suddenly. “Forget it, he’s making me increasingly curious. Come, follow me, I want to know more about him!”

She then dragged Han Xiangmeng toward Ye Xuan’s table.

The actions of Mo and Han attracted the attention of many people. They watched the two women as they walked to Ye Xuan’s table, and their gazes fell upon Ye Xuan.

They were curious!

Naturally, they were curious about Ye Xuan’s identity. There were not many people who could draw the attention of Mo Suiqing!

Mo Suiqing took a glance of Ye Xuan and smiled. “There’s no one here, do you mind if us sisters sit over here?” she asked.

Ye Xuan took a look at the two women. Obviously he knew who Han Xiangmeng was, but he was wondering what they were up to.

Without waiting for Ye Xuan to reply, Mo Suiqing had dragged Han Xiangmeng to sit down beside her. She took measure of Ye Xuan before asking, “How should I address you, young master? Which family do you come from?”

Ye Xuan put his chopsticks down and cupped his fists to greet her. “Ye Xuan, I’m a recreational practitioner!”

A recreational practitioner!

Mo Suiqing’s eyes sparkled with increasing curiosity. “You’re just a recreational practitioner?”

Ye Xuan nodded and replied that he was.

Mo Suiqing laughed and told him, “Recreational practitioners have no right to be here.”

Ye Xuan laughed. “We’re just here with Chatelain Lu for a good meal!” he replied.

To get a good meal!

The plaza erupted with laughter as everyone heard him.

Mo Suiqing also began laughing. “This is the first time that I’ve seen someone come to the banquet for a good meal.”

Ye Xuan muttered a little to himself before saying, “Miss Mo, why don’t you tell me directly what you wish to do?”

Everyone’s attention was focused on him, and Ye Xuan felt that this was not good for him. He did not want to make enemies for no reason at all!

Mo Suiqing laughed. “Nothing much, can’t I come over for some fun? Or do you feel that I’m not worthy of sitting on the same table as you, Master Ye?” she asked, before the corners of her lips curled up.

The expressions of a few men around them instantly changed after hearing her. One of them walked to her side and looked coldly at Ye Xuan. “Miss Mo, what is he? How is he worthy of sitting on the same table as you?”

“Slam!”

Lu Ming suddenly slammed his palm violently on the table. He pointed angrily at the man, telling him, “Who the fuck do you think you are? How dare you speak to my big brother like that?”

The man squinted and replied, “Are you looking to die?”

Before Lu Ming could speak, Ye Xuan held him back. He then turned to Mo Suiqing, asking, “Miss Mo, did I offend you in anyway? Why are you trying to incite hatred against me?”

Mo Suiqing blinked and displayed a look of innocence. “Incite hatred? Not me! You’re wrongly accusing me!”

She sighed softly before continuing, “I saw that you possess a unique aura, young master, and I wanted to get to know you. I didn’t expect to have caused any misunderstanding between us. Sigh… looks like you don’t think I’m not worthy of being your friend, Master Ye.”

Ye Xuan lowered his voice and replied, “But you saw how your actions have made me everyone’s target, right?”

Mo Suiqing’s lips cracked into a smile as she replied, “That’s your problem, isn’t it?”

Ye Xuan looked at Mo Suiqing and understood that she had wanted to cause trouble all this while. “Let’s go!” he said while he got up and dragged Lu Ming and Ye Ling along with him.

Ye Ling nodded obediently and picked up an apple from the table before hiding it in her pocket. She knew that her brother liked to eat fruits after dinner.

Seeing that the three of them were about to leave, Mo Suiqing’s expression turned cold. “You really don’t plan to give me any face, Brother Ye! Why, do you really think so lowly of me?”

The man beside Mo Suiqing laughed. “Miss Mo, there’s no need to bother about this kind of people,” he said.

He then glanced at Ye Ling before continuing in a derogatory fashion, “It’s enough if you people have come here for a free meal, but you even want to take something back with you. I’ve never heard about or seen such behavior before. Forget it. Such low-class people can come up with anything!”

Ye Ling’s little face turned slightly pale as she heard him, and she hurriedly placed the apple back on the table.

Han Xiangmeng’s expression changed instantly as she heard the man speak.

The terrible tragedy on the Cloud Ship happened because of this little girl!

Indeed, Ye Xuan disappeared like a gust of wind from his original spot just as the man finished speaking. When he next appeared, he was already in front of the offensive man, and before he could even react, Ye Xuan’s fist was already on his mouth.

“Bam!”

The man instantly flew a few meters away. All of his teeth flew out of his mouth, and his blood spurted into the air!

The expressions of everyone present changed upon seeing this happen!

He struck!

He dared to strike here!

Mo Suiqing did not expect the youth to be daring enough to strike someone at this banquet. She looked coldly at Ye Xuan and told him, “You’re good!”

Ye Xuan walked up to Mo Suiqing after striking down the man with one punch. “Women like you don’t care about and have no respect for anyone just because of your beauty. You like to toy with the men around you, and I bet you’re happy as they do foolish acts after listening to each and every of words, right? Pardon me, but even if someone like you were stark naked and lying right in front of me, I wouldn’t be interested in the least bit.”

After speaking, he picked up the apple on the table and took his sister and Lu Ming with him as he turned to leave.
