Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1079: Chapter 1079: Gathering of the Aristocratic Geniuses (1st Update)

Jade Banquet Pavilion was the highest-end luxury inn in Cursed City, towering a hundred zhang high and divided into thirty-three floors, each a world of its own. Only those with both status and high Cultivation Levels could afford to dine here, truly the chosen ones among the strong.

Moreover, it was said that the backstage boss of Jade Banquet Pavilion was Pu Yanru, the most favored disciple of the Goddess of the Curse, known as the minor City Lord.

Thus, her status was extraordinary.

As night fell and the lights began to glow, Jade Banquet Pavilion, usually bustling by this time, was unusually quiet today.

The head steward of Jade Banquet Pavilion stood at the entrance with a group of subordinates.

Regardless of status or Cultivation Level, those who came to dine were politely yet resolutely turned away before they could even enter.

Although most people were dissatisfied, the sight before them made it clear that some wealthy and noble guest had booked the entire venue. They could only leave begrudgingly.

However, many others deemed themselves too prestigious to be denied and believed that Jade Banquet Pavilion’s actions were a direct affront to their dignity, thus they began to question indignantly.

”What? Even I cannot enter? Have you guys gone blind, not recognizing me, young master?” a man wearing opulent garments and radiating a powerful aura coldly questioned.

”Young Master Yue, of course we recognize you, but today is indeed a special occasion. Orders from above state that no outsiders may enter, so we truly apologize!” said the head steward, bowing slightly with sincere respect.

”Outsiders? Am I considered an outsider too?” Hearing this, Young Master Yue grew even more infuriated and started walking inside.

The head steward gently stepped forward, blocking his path, and respectfully said, ”Young Master Yue, although it may sound harsh, you indeed cannot enter because the person who booked Jade Banquet Pavilion today has an extremely special status!”

”Get out of the way! I want to see who this important person is today. They must have quite an audacity to not give face to me, Young Master Yue!”

Saying so, Young Master Yue strode forward, attempting to enter.

The head steward’s face showed a trace of difficulty.

That was because Young Master Yue was a descendant of a high-ranking Deity of the Tian Zhao Realm, and he often frequented Cursed City for pleasure; it was tough to offend him.

Just then, a streak of light flew to the front of Jade Banquet Pavilion, and upon landing, it turned out to be a scantily clad, enchantingly curvaceous, beautiful woman.

As she appeared, everyone around fell into silence.

Then, the woman looked around with alluring eyes, gently covering her mouth and letting out a flirtatious laugh, before gracefully walking towards Jade Banquet Pavilion.

Seeing this, the stewards originally blocking the entrance promptly stepped aside, arranging themselves on both sides.

Even the previously arrogant Young Master Yue now stood dumbfounded, foolishly watching the woman enter Jade Banquet Pavilion.

It wasn’t until she had disappeared from sight that Young Master Yue shivered, swallowed his saliva, and said in a trembling voice.

”Is... is this tonight’s guest?”

The head steward sighed softly and nodded, ”Young Master Yue, she is just one of the guests coming tonight. There will be a few more arriving later, and the host of this banquet...”

Saying so, the head steward leaned in and whispered something into Young Master Yue’s ear.

Hearing that, Young Master Yue’s face instantly turned pale, and then he took a deep breath, turned around, and left without looking back.

He was very aware that although his status might seem noble, compared to those attending tonight, the difference was like between the clouds and the mud.

For instance, the woman who just arrived, sensuous and alluring in appearance, was actually Zhong Anan of the Taiyin Deity Clan, a well-known prodigy among the younger generation.

Such an existence was far beyond what he could aspire to.

When Zhong Anan reached the top floor of Jade Banquet Pavilion and had yet to be seated, an array of radiant lights appeared, and another person arrived at the scene.

This was a man whose whole body emitted an aura of gloomy evil, his face as pale as paper, resembling a ghost at first glance.

When he saw Zhong Anan, the man sneered playfully, ”It appears we’ve arrived a bit early. While no one’s here, Mysterious Lady, how about we cultivate some joy?”

Zhong Anan laughed so hard that she trembled, but her charming eyes were as cold as ice, ”Ji Haoqiong, so many years have passed, and you’re still the same! I don’t mind cultivating, but aren’t you afraid I’ll drain you completely dry?”

If there had been others present, they would have undoubtedly exclaimed in shock.

For the man was Ji Haoqiong, the young lord of the Wutong Divine Sect.

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoqiong extended a tongue like a snake’s flick, licking his chapped lips, ”Without trying, how would I know who will drain whom?”

Zhong Anan’s smile gradually faded.

Being the heavenly pride of the Taiyin Deity Clan and although she seemed extremely libertine, her mystical femininity was absolutely inviolable, otherwise, she would surely suffer a reverse in her Cultivation Level, leading to a great loss.

Hence, she was greatly displeased.

Just then, a burst of laughter came, and several figures hurried over together.

These newcomers were all prodigies defending their territories, familiar with each other, so they temporarily glossed over the matter.

The room became lively, the prodigies, filled with spirit and enthusiasm, engaged in animated discussions.

At that moment, a man in white unfolded his fan, chuckling, ”I wonder for what reason Qi has invited us to this banquet!”

”A white-haired chatterbox, why should there be a ’why’ when it comes to enjoying a feast? Qi has been cultivating at home all this time. Now that he’s finally come out, of course, he wants to relax and have a gathering with us, right?” a dark-skinned burly man laughed.

”Tsk, tsk, I heard that the goddess of the curse invited Qi’s female disciple, who’s almost been broken by Qi; did you know that?” someone else laughed.

Hearing this, the eyes of these men lit up, except for the man in white who turned to look at Zhong Anan.

”Ms. Zhong...”

Zhong Anan smiled coyly, ”You don’t need to mind me, feel free to chat away! I find it rather interesting!”

”That’s right, could the Mysterious Lady still be upset about these things?” the burly man also grinned.

The entire room burst into laughter.

Just then, a faint voice said, ”What’s being discussed that’s making everyone so happy?”

Along with the voice, figures were seen treading on moonlight outside the window, swiftly entering the room.

Leading them was none other than Qi Hongbo, the young master of the Celestial Fire.

The people in the room promptly got up.

”Greetings, Young Master Qi!”

”Greetings to Young Master Qi!”

Qi Hongbo nodded indifferently, his face calm, ”My apologies for being late; thank you all for waiting!”

Being of the highest status and Cultivation Level among everyone present, everyone smiled and said.

”You’re too polite, Young Master Qi!”

Only Ji Haoqiong had remained silent until he saw Ruan Jingshow beside Qi Hongbo; his eyes slightly brightened, and his voice rasped.

”Young Master Qi, this woman is...”

Qi Hongbo nodded, ”What, are you interested, Ji? Feel free to take her; I don’t think the Jade Banquet Pavilion would mind over just a disciple with the Wutong Divine Sect!”
