Beautiful CEO’s Top Martial Expert

Chapter 1686: Chapter 1684: The Banquet

”Because even if I don’t join the Formation Master Association, I can still become a powerful array master and martial artist!”

Xiao Yifeng confidently stated, having the second layer of array knowledge from the Yin-Yang Forbidden Tome along with the legacy of the formation grandmaster Gu Qingfeng, he simply didn’t need to join this Formation Master Association.

It’s like you already have a big house, and someone invites you to live in a small house; would you still go?

”Really not considering it?”

Liu Sanming asked again.

”No need, if you intend to force me like that guy just now, then sorry, even if you kill me, I won’t join this Formation Master Association.”

Xiao Yifeng righteously replied.

”Don’t worry, I, Liu Sanming, am not someone despicable like Qian Xu. Since you are unwilling, I won’t force you. However, if you change your mind, feel free to come to the Formation Master Branch to find me.”

Liu Sanming said with a smile, then turned and left.

”Big brother, you are indeed popular; even the president of the Formation Master Branch came to find you personally!”

Li Zitong said with a smile while looking at Xiao Yifeng. Then, frowning, she said, ”But that vice president of the Alchemist Branch wants to seize your Dihuo. It’s really despicable!”

”Kid, be careful in the future. This Qian Xu definitely won’t give up easily. He will find a way to seize your Dihuo again!”

Long Qian reminded him.

”Got it!”

Xiao Yifeng nodded. He also felt that his current strength was insufficient. If Liu Sanming hadn’t appeared today, he might have been doomed. He must quickly enhance his strength, or else he’ll be in trouble when facing real strong ones.

Two hours later, Xiao Yifeng and Li Zitong arrived outside the Imperial Palace of Wind Cloud City. This palace was immensely large, occupying a quarter of Wind Cloud City’s area, heavily guarded. The guards at just the outermost perimeter of the palace were all Gathering Elixir Realm experts.

After Xiao Yifeng and Li Zitong presented their invitation card, a guard led them inside.

Walking into this palace, Xiao Yifeng felt it was very grand and luxurious, much bigger than the palace in Japan and incredibly luxurious. All around, there were countless Gathering Elixir Realm, Opening Spirit Realm, and even Hollow Void Realm guards.

Xiao Yifeng directly used his X-ray vision to investigate the palace, trying to see if there was any trace of the other half of the Jade Pendant.

However, he didn’t find the Jade Pendant but discovered a captivating drama in a secluded room of the palace.

A mature woman dressed like an imperial concubine was staging an intense scene with a man in guard attire. This was evidently a spectacle involving the king’s woman and one of his subordinates.

”It seems the king is really miserable, being cuckolded by his own subordinates. I wonder who this consort is, bold enough and quite well-proportioned!”

Xiao Yifeng muttered to himself, stopping his X-ray vision after a few more glances, lest his desires get stirred up.

Soon, Xiao Yifeng and Li Zitong were led to a grand and luxurious courtyard in the palace. This courtyard, with its rock mountain, flowing water, small bridge, and lake, was decorated like a paradise.

In this courtyard were arranged tables with exquisite refreshments and wines. Behind these tables sat young men of extraordinary demeanor, looking like sons of prominent families or young talents of exceptional skills.

Among them were the Young Masters Xiao Yifeng knew from the Five Great Clans of Wind Cloud City, as well as Reen Tianwu, Zhou Zhou, Ye Yunxuan, and Feng Teng from Fengyun Academy, all gathered again.

There was also the Eighth Prince Feng Hao and many others Xiao Yifeng hadn’t seen before, all possessing significant strength.

They were all above the Opening Spirit Realm, with quite a few being Hollow Void Realm experts, including several at the fourth level of the Hollow Void Realm; it was indeed a gathering of elites.

As for the Fourth Prince, whom Xiao Yifeng had only met once, he was seated in the central position, with a warm smile on his face.

”Brother Xiao, Miss Li, you’ve arrived! Please sit, please sit!”

Seeing Xiao Yifeng appear, Feng Yu warmly said, standing up. At this moment, all eyes in the room turned towards Xiao Yifeng and Li Zitong, with many flashing mysterious gazes.

”Fourth Prince!”

Xiao Yifeng nodded slightly towards Feng Yu.

”Is he the one who can craft third-level arrays and defeated Fang Qing, Xiao Yifeng?”

At this moment, many present were discussing Xiao Yifeng, as the two major events he caused at Fengyun Academy today not only shook the entire Fengyun Academy but also spread throughout Wind Cloud City.

So, everyone present knew that Xiao Yifeng not only set up a third-level array but also defeated Fang Qing, one of the top five genius students of Fengyun Academy and crippled him, thus everyone was extremely curious about Xiao Yifeng.

However, many looked at Xiao Yifeng with disdainful expressions and cold eyes.

”Brother Xiao and Miss Li accepting my invitation to attend this banquet makes me very happy. Please sit, the banquet will begin shortly!”

Feng Yu directly addressed Xiao Yifeng and Li Zitong.

Just as Xiao Yifeng and Li Zitong were about to sit, Princess Feng Cai’er appeared here.

”Don’t sit!”

Feng Cai’er sternly commanded, pointing at Xiao Yifeng.

For a moment, everyone’s eyes turned to Feng Cai’er.

”Cai’er, what are you saying?”

Feng Yu frowned slightly at Feng Cai’er.

”Fourth Brother, this guy offended me before; how could you invite him here? I don’t want to see him, so make him leave at once!”

Feng Cai’er said imperiously, speaking unkindly.

”Hey, do you think we want to be here? Who do you think you are? If you don’t want to see big brother, you can leave, no one’s stopping you!”

Li Zitong immediately retorted, looking at Feng Cai’er.

”You...”

Immediately, Feng Cai’er glared angrily at Li Zitong, her body trembling with rage.

”Cai’er, stop talking. Give your fourth brother some face; Brother Xiao was invited by me!”

Feng Yu said to Feng Cai’er with a somewhat displeased expression.

”No way, he must leave. I don’t want someone like him in the palace!”

Feng Cai’er directly stated.

”Whom does Princess Cai’er want to leave?”

A gentle voice sounded, followed by two silhouettes entering. They were Yuan Zhimo and her maid Lv Ya.

”Miss Yuan, you’ve arrived!”

Seeing Yuan Zhimo, Feng Yu immediately approached with a smile, and all the young men present turned their eyes towards Yuan Zhimo.

Many, looking at such a beautiful and charming lady, were captivated, with a feeling of affection.
