Ye Qingtian wasn’t in a hurry to make a move; he stood alone on the eaves, coldly watching everything before him.

The banquet atmosphere was lively and bustling.

Invitees were all local heroes, such as the Tianjing’s Young Master Ren Shaoqing and Princess Tai Jie’er from Hai City!

For everyone, this was a rare opportunity, and no matter who they were, they all wanted to seize this chance to meet other heroes.

The Qin Family Mansion was filled with banquets; guests sat freely, the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.

Before the banquet started, Ren Shaoqing stood up and slowly spoke: "I am Ren Shaoqing of the Hidden Sect; today, gathering with all the heroes, truly is destiny. I toast to everyone first!"

"Young Master Ren is generous!"

The crowd of heroes raised their glasses to toast Ren Shaoqing, making the atmosphere even more lively for a while.

Then Tai Jie’er offered her toast, bringing along her younger brother, Prince Tai Feng.

After the toasts, Tai Jie’er mingled through the seats; she appeared untouched by mortal dust, exuding a sense of standing out among all.

She held a wine cup and chatted with all the heroes present, her elegance and charm doubly enticing.

Many heroes warmly engaged in conversation with her, and very soon, Tai Jie’er became the focal point of the entire event.

Countless eyes gathered on Tai Jie’er’s charming figure.

The warriors all eagerly expressed themselves, striving to win the beauty’s favor.

Tai Jie’er was at ease among the seats; each smile and frown was enough to captivate everyone. Seeing her so ethereal and refined, quite a few young talents were momentarily swayed, thoroughly enchanted.

"Princess Tai Jie’er is like a fairy; moreover, she can set aside her status as a Princess, truly commendable indeed."

"In this world, perhaps only Prison Lord Qin could match Princess Tai Jie’er."

The crowd of heroes discussed fervently.

Under the praises, Tai Jie’er drank a few more glasses, making her appear even more enchanting.

She gently bit her lip, like a soul-stirring enchantress, intoxicating people’s hearts, significantly pulling the heartstrings of all the heroes.

She strolled among the seats with a light, graceful pace, full of charm.

The breeze stirred, making her skirt sway, itchingly tantalizing everyone’s hearts.

At this moment, Tai Jie’er’s eyes were brimming, exuding sultry allure, so casually biting down on her lip could make one’s heart skip!

"Do you guys think I match Prison Lord Qin?" Tai Jie’er asked the heroes.

"Yes, indeed, Princess Tai Jie’er and Prison Lord Qin are a natural pair of talents and beauty!"

"Indeed, there’s no better match in this world than you two."

The heroes agreed one after another.

In fact, when Qin Lingtian invited her to the banquet earlier, she already had her heart set on Qin Lingtian.

After all, Qin Lingtian is the first in Hai City, and in the future he might be the leader in both the Mortal World and the Hidden Sect Realm!

What woman wouldn’t like such a man?

Instead of letting Zhou Wenwan take him, why not seize the opportunity herself!

"You’re right, those two indeed are a perfect match." Suddenly, a leisurely voice sounded, extremely calm.

This voice immediately broke the atmosphere of the banquet, and everyone looked up toward the source.

Only to see an ordinary-looking stranger walking over leisurely.

"Who are you to dare insult our Princess!" Tai Jie’er’s underling stepped forward and shouted.

Scram!

With one word, the opponent rolled out in a flurry.

The newcomer was none other than Ye Qingtian, disguised using a Secret Technique.

Behind Qin Lingtian stands a terrifying power; Ye Qingtian didn’t want anyone to know that he had killed Qin Lingtian.

That would bring disaster upon the Ye Family in Tianjing.

Additionally, he didn’t want Qin Lingtian’s father to know that he was the one who killed his son.

After all, Qin Yunlei had treated him well back then.

At this moment, Tai Jie’er frowned slightly, feeling somewhat familiar with this person but unable to recall who he was!

Soon, Ye Qingtian walked into the middle of the banquet, scanning everyone, and asked coolly: "Where’s that dog Qin Lingtian? Why hasn’t he arrived yet?"

"Who might you be, and what business do you have here?" Tai Jie’er slightly furrowed her delicate brows and asked.

Normally, Tai Jie’er would never step up, but this time was different; she had set her heart on Qin Lingtian and wanted to defend him.

"Who do you think you are? Do I need to tell you who I am? Do I need to tell you why I’m here? In heaven and on earth, in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, all is mine. I do what I want."

Ye Qingtian didn’t bother to look at Tai Jie’er.

Tai Jie’er bit her lip and moved aside, unwilling to speak further.

"Bastard, how dare you insult my sister, you’re looking for death!" Tai Feng stood up, coldly snorted.

No matter what, Tai Jie’er was his sister; if he didn’t stand up for her when she was insulted, where would the Tai Family’s face be?

Moreover, the newcomer’s cultivation didn’t seem high; defeating him in one move would certainly enhance his impression among the heroes.

Ye Qingtian lazily scanned Tai Feng with his gaze and said indifferently: "What if I insult your sister? What if I insult you?"

"Kid, mind your words; you better not be reckless with me! Otherwise, I’ll show you the might of the Martial Emperor!" At this moment, Tai Feng’s eyes flashed with a cold light, and he shouted sharply.

Ye Qingtian wasn’t interested in even looking at him, continuing to gaze at the host seat, unperturbed he said: "Isn’t Elder Yao your adoptive father? Even that lousy adoptive father of yours wouldn’t dare to speak to me like that; you sure have guts. Last time, I spared him a life by not killing, seems like I might need to pinch off your father’s and your heads together, and kick them around."

With these words, everyone’s faces changed drastically.

They couldn’t believe Ye Qingtian spoke so unscrupulously; did he not know who Tai Feng was?

This remark immediately stirred murder in Tai Feng; Ye Qingtian not only insulted his sister but also his adoptive father and himself; if he swallowed his pride, his face would be lost!

Besides, in Tai Feng’s eyes, Ye Qingtian was just a somewhat strong waste!

"Simply seeking death."

At this moment, Tai Jie’er coldly snorted with utmost disgust toward Ye Qingtian.

"You’re not qualified!"

Tai Feng glared with murderous intent pouring out.

Stepped forward and coldly shouted: "A brat like you, without even the qualification to meet my adoptive father, yet dare insult the elder, today I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of my adoptive father!"

Tai Feng’s expression was full of disdain.

Seeing this scene, the venue fell silent.

The warriors were well aware of Tai Feng’s Martial Emperor-level cultivation; once he made a move, Ye Qingtian was dead without question!

Tai Jie’er coldly smiled; her brother taking action was akin to her taking action. Ye Qingtian having caused chaos today, the Tai Race would solve this problem, and once Qin Lingtian arrived, it would certainly win his favor.

"What’s going on?" A voice rang out just as a battle was about to erupt.

"Today the heroes gather here because my sister has become the favored child of the Celestial Martial Academy; this is a joyful event, I don’t think it’s necessary to stain it with blood."

It was none other than Qin Lingtian speaking.

"No, today there must be blood!" Ye Qingtian said indifferently.
