Chapter 1390: Chapter 1387: Master of Acting, Speak While Kneeling (Second Update)
This caused Bai Xi, who was initially full of confidence and planning to woo this eldest daughter of the Luo Family, to have his expression darken instantly, the muscles on his face twitching uncontrollably, and his eyes filled with a chilling murderous intent.
What the hell is going on?!
Why does this idiot from the Wan Clan even know the eldest daughter of the Luo Family?!
At the same time, Xue An gave a slight smile to Luo Jingting, who was still in a state of shock.
"Last night..."
"Don’t say it!" Luo Jingting immediately interrupted Xue An, then leaned in closer and whispered in a low voice.
"You’re not allowed to say a word about it! Or I won’t forgive you!"
But she had no idea how deliberate and flustered her actions appeared at that moment.
Especially when everyone heard the words "last night," their faces all displayed extremely strange expressions.
What happened last night?
Why does this eldest daughter of the Luo Family look so panicked?
Could it be...
Just then, a loud *bang* resounded.
The table before Bai Xi shattered into dust, and he stared icily at Xue An.
Xue An, of course, perceived the killing intent in Bai Xi’s gaze, but in his eyes, Bai Xi didn’t even count as an ant, so he couldn’t be bothered to pay him any attention.
Though it wouldn’t hurt to toy with him a little!
Thus, an enigmatic smile emerged on Xue An’s face. He then leaned down slightly and whispered gently in Luo Jingting’s ear, "I know what you’re worried about, but don’t worry—it’ll all be over soon!"
After saying this, Xue An chuckled, stood upright, and said faintly, "Let’s go!"
Xue An led Wen Muling and the two others, walking straight past Luo Jingting.
Luo Jingting stared in astonishment at Xue An’s retreating figure, her mind echoing with his words.
What does that even mean?!
What does he mean by "it’ll all be over soon"?!
She wanted to stop this annoying man and get a clear explanation, but mindful of her status, she ultimately bowed her head in silence.
However, in Bai Xi’s eyes, everything was perceived entirely differently.
In his view, it was obvious that Xue An had warmly exchanged pleasantries with Luo Jingting.
And then Luo Jingting had "reluctantly" watched Xue An leave with tenderness in her eyes.
This scene made Bai Xi feel as if he were choking on blood.
One has to admit, being a drama king sometimes takes a bit of natural talent.
And Bai Xi clearly possessed an extraordinary flair for it, earning the recognition of all.
Zong Cheng, naturally, observed all of this.
He wasn’t a fool, and he easily guessed what Bai Xi had been thinking earlier.
So when he saw Bai Xi’s utterly defeated expression, he couldn’t help feeling immensely satisfied. Yet outwardly, he showed no signs of it, reaching out instead to gently pat Bai Xi’s shoulder.
"Well, Bai Brother, now you understand how detestable Wan Gaoxing really is!"
Bai Xi clenched his jaw tightly, grinding out words from between his teeth.
"I’ll make sure he dies!"
Zong Cheng chuckled darkly. "Me too! Because only if he dies will those three tender, exquisite women be mine! So, happy cooperation!"
Although there were some minor hiccups, the banquet proceeded according to schedule.
However, this time, the attendees’ focus shifted to two individuals.
One was, naturally, Luo Jingting seated on the central high platform. The other...
Many looked with peculiar expressions at Xue An, who was sitting leisurely on a chair with an air of composure, while the three women stood elegantly behind him, their thoughts full of bewilderment.
How did the Wan family’s young master suddenly seem so different?
Setting aside anything else, the aura of gravitas and composure he now exuded, like an unfathomable abyss or an immovable mountain, made it impossible to underestimate him.
Was this still the same Wan Family scion notorious for his reckless and wanton lifestyle?
In one corner of the banquet hall, a group of young girls, despite their youth, gathered in a dazzling display of beauty, chattering excitedly.
When they spotted Xue An seated in the distance, many of their eyes lit up.
One of them tugged on Wan Henxin’s sleeve, exclaiming, "Wow, isn’t that your brother? He looks so handsome!"
Wan Henxin herself was stunned.
She had never seen her brother like this before.
But the thought of the two slaps she had endured over the past couple of days sent a shiver through her, leaving her too terrified to say a word.
"Haha, Brother Wan, it seems your son has quite the skill, doesn’t he?" The Patriarch of the Bai Family, Bai Chi, remarked in a tone dripping with sarcasm.
Everyone knew he had meticulously planned everything to match his son with the eldest daughter of the Luo Family. But looking at the current situation, it seemed the Wan family’s young master might try to interfere.
Wan Taihui’s face was glowing with pride as he let out a hearty laugh. "Ah, well, it’s all thanks to the fine bloodline of the Wan Clan!"
His words lacked any trace of humility.
This was typical of the Ghost Race—what value did modesty hold for them?
Meanwhile, Zong Cheng and Bai Xi finally couldn’t bear it anymore. Leading a large group of cronies, they approached Xue An with hostile expressions.
Wherever they passed, the crowd instinctively cleared a path for them.
The imposing sight naturally caught Luo Jingting’s attention. Yet, unlike the other Ghost Race members who were looking forward to a confrontation with great excitement, her heart swelled with an uneasy sense of worry.
After all, despite her harsh words earlier, Luo Jingting didn’t want anyone to die!
But what happened next completely exceeded her expectations.
Xue An didn’t even lift an eye to their approach. He simply continued leisurely fiddling with his fingers, as though they were far more captivating than any person.
This action, however, fell into the eyes of drama king Bai Xi and was misinterpreted as an act of masking nervousness.
So it’s just as I thought!
Bai Xi’s lips curled into a cold grin.
But before he could speak, Zong Cheng, standing beside him, couldn’t hold back any longer and sneered.
"Oh, isn’t this the great young master of the Wan Clan? What’s this? After going out, I half-expected you wouldn’t make it back alive!"
In reality, Xue An was far from idle. The moment he entered the Luo Family’s estate, his Divine Sense unfurled like water, silently investigating everything without alerting a soul.
So when Zong Cheng’s sarcastic remarks reached him, Xue An didn’t even bother raising his head, for in that very instant, his Divine Sense caught onto a clue.
Just as I suspected, huh? Xue An’s lips curled into a faint, cryptic smile.
His silence, however, made many think that the Wan family’s young master was conceding defeat.
Especially Zong Cheng, who, emboldened by his misinterpretation, greedily eyed Wen Muling and the other two women before letting out a sinister laugh.
"What’s wrong? Has the great Wan family’s young master been so frightened he can’t even speak anymore? Has your courage deserted you entirely?"
The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.
Zong Cheng’s words dripped with provocation so tangible it practically oozed.
Everyone turned to Xue An, eager to see how he would respond.
Would he continue his silence? Or would he choose to back down?
These two possibilities circled through everyone’s minds.
But just then, having obtained the information he sought, Xue An suddenly raised his eyes.
His gaze was as profound and immeasurable as the vast sky, commanding absolute authority.
As Zong Cheng locked eyes with this gaze, his entire body stiffened, and his Ghost Race physique nearly burst apart.
At that instant, Xue An lowered his gaze and coldly said, "Kneel."
*Boom!*
Zong Cheng felt an immense force crash onto him. Without even the chance to resist, he was immediately forced to his knees, completely immobile.
The hall, for a moment, fell into absolute silence.
