Chapter 563: Chapter 562: Making a Grand Entrance

Ye Lingyi was also looking at Mo Zidong with a puzzled face at that moment, but after feeling Mo Zidong’s enthusiasm, he laughed aloud, "Then I shall follow your lead and drink heartily with Brother Mo!"

The two walked towards the banquet together.

That scene left onlookers utterly baffled.

What’s going on?

Since when did the Ye Family get involved with the Mo family?

Hadn’t the Mo family just undergone a change of leadership? Was the Ye Family’s action that swift?!

While everyone else was confused, Long Aotian’s face darkened.

What exactly did Mo Zidong mean by this?!

If it weren’t for being in the Mo family’s domain, he might have interrogated them thoroughly.

"Young Master Long, the situation seems somewhat amiss, doesn’t it?"

Tian Xingning from the Nine Dragons Valley Heavenly Martial Divine Sect came over to Long Aotian’s side and spoke thoughtfully.

Long Aotian squinted and coldly said, "None of your damn business, get lost, or not just you, even if your master the Heavenly Martial Divine Son came here, this young master would suppress him with a lift of my hand!"

Upon hearing this, Tian Xingning immediately raised his hands above his head and said with an innocent face, "Young Master Long, I meant no offense, ha."

"Scram!" Long Aotian, in a foul mood, spat out sharply.

Seeing this, Tian Xingning shook his head, muttering, "Okay, okay, I won’t annoy you anymore."

The unamused Tian Xingning wasn’t affected at all, and soon he was off mingling with other elites from the festival, striking up conversations.

However, the expressions on the faces of Long Aotian and the heavenly elites of the Divine Dragon Azure Sea from the Long Family were extremely grim.

"Are you alright?" Long Aotian glanced at Long Chen and asked.

Long Chen shook his head slightly, but his face was pale and bloodless.

Long Aotian’s gaze darkened, "Go and probe the Mo family’s intentions."

As soon as he finished speaking, a member of the Long Family went into action, dispersing to various places.

Many banquet tables had been set up in the inner courtyard, allowing attendees to sit freely and converse.

Its intended purpose was to provide a platform for interaction amongst the top talents from across the East Desolate.

The Long Family, as a top-tier power in the East Desolate that had even nearly ascended to an overlord position several times, naturally had strong social connections.

Among them were those who had good relations with the Mo family.

However, Mo Zidong’s move greatly displeased Long Aotian.

He couldn’t figure out what the Mo family was up to.

The blatant favoritism shown by Mo Zidong was definitely suspicious.

Long Aotian was no fool; he was very aware that there must be some other reasons involved.

After all, the feud between the Long Family and the Ye Family was well established, and normally no powers would involve themselves in their conflict.

Not even the overlord powers made exceptions.

But Mo Zidong’s intervention was a bad sign for the Long Family.

Long Aotian needed to understand the situation properly.

In fact, not just Long Aotian, many other top talents were also moving around the banquet, trying to glean some information from the Mo family’s elites.

Even the Saint Heir of the Purple Mist Sect, Li Jichuan, was no exception.

The person Li Jichuan approached was none other than Mo Xiangyu, whom he had spoken with before.

For some unknown reason, Mo Xiangyu, as the grandson of Mo Yunli, hadn’t been killed by Mo Yunli but instead was present at this festival of top talents.

However, from the pale look on Mo Xiangyu’s face, it was obvious that he still hadn’t recovered from whatever had happened.

Upon hearing Li Jichuan’s probing questions, Mo Xiangyu turned even paler and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Brother Li, I really don’t know about this matter, the only thing I can tell you is, if you encounter someone from the Ye Family in the future, try not to provoke them..."

"The Ye Family?" Li Jichuan was filled with confusion.

The Ye Family was indeed somewhat stronger than the Purple Mist Sect, but not to the extent that they would be feared by the sect.

This was something that Mo Xiangyu surely knew as well.

Yet now Mo Xiangyu was telling him this, and obviously, it was connected to Mo Zidong’s recent partiality.

’The Ye Family, has a significant figure emerged? Or have they formed some sort of relationship with the Mo family?’ Li Jichuan guessed in his mind.

He wanted to ask directly, but seeing Mo Xiangyu’s pale face, he refrained from asking further.

Something significant must have happened within the Mo family, and undoubtedly, it involved the Ye Family!

For some reason, Li Jichuan’s mind once again conjured the image of the Flood Dragon Imperial Chariot that Mo Xiangyu had greeted earlier.

Previously, everyone had thought that the person within the Flood Dragon Imperial Chariot could not possibly be from the Ye Family.

But now it seems that it was indeed the case.

And he was no ordinary member of the Ye Family, but a terrifying presence that even made the Mo family revise their attitude towards the Ye Family!

What kind of person could make the Mo family change their attitude?

It was unimaginable.

Watching Ye Lingyi, who was happily chatting with Mo Zidong in the distance, Li Jichuan silently drank his wine, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, as the Heavenly Pride Festival was in full swing at the eastern gate.

A young man and a young woman were slowly walking along.

The girl was dressed in a long green dress, her skin was smooth and delicate, seemingly untouched by makeup.

At the moment, the girl’s face was flushed, though it was unclear if it was from nervousness or something else.

The young man walked unhurriedly behind her, hands in his pockets, his expression calm.

"Is this the Heavenly Pride Festival?"

After entering the inner courtyard with Mo Qinglian, Ye Xuan glanced around casually, finding it quite uninteresting.

Much more uninteresting than he had imagined.

"What a beautiful girl..."

Many from the young prodigies present in the inner courtyard were staring at the girl walking ahead, their expressions one of surprise.

Quite a few young men’s eyes brightened, unconsciously straightening their backs a lot more, as if they wanted to show their best side in front of this striking girl.

"This girl is so beautiful, she’s not at all inferior to the Fairies of the Red Sparrow Institute."

"Not only that, I feel like her beauty could even compare to the Red Sparrow Saintess!"

"Shh, the Red Sparrow Saintess is over there!" someone whispered quietly.

However, at this moment, the attention of the Red Sparrow Saintess Ye Qingyue and others was focused on the young man in the black robe; they hadn’t heard what the others were saying.

"Ye Xuan!?" Leng Hongmi and Ruan Mengyue were staring intensely at the figure, disbelief in their eyes.

What they had seen before was not an illusion!?

Ye Xuan had actually appeared here!?

"Wasn’t this guy in the remote Southern Domain?" Ye Qingyue was surprised.

"Ye Xuan!?"

Similarly, not far off, disciples from the Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven were talking when they saw Ye Xuan, and their pupils suddenly constricted.

They had not expected Ye Xuan to appear here.

"How did this guy get here?!"

The disciples from the Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven were trembling inside.

"He Kun, what’s wrong?" said a young man with a robust physique and abundant hair, arching an eyebrow at his companion, the Saint Heir of the Fierce Battle Sect, as he put down his wine bowl.

"Saint Heir, it’s that chief disciple from the Emperor Immortal Sect!" the Saint Heir from the Fierce Battle Sect said with a pale face, looking at Ye Xuan and whispering.

He still remembered how Ye Xuan single-handedly faced the Heavenly Tribulation three months ago.

He never imagined that he would encounter Ye Xuan here!

"He’s Ye Xuan!?" The cold youth in the white robe across him furrowed his brows and turned his gaze towards Ye Xuan.

"Saint Heir, he is Ye Xuan, the one who single-handedly faced the Ninety-nine Heavenly Tribulations..." the cold youth’s companion from Qianyuan Cave Heaven also said with a pale face.

He and He Kun, who had both been to the Emperor Immortal Sect, had barely escaped back to their sect and had come here with their respective Saint Heirs to Chunnan Mountain, never expecting to see that monstrous young man again here!

"Single-handedly faced the Ninety-nine Heavenly Tribulations? Bullshit!" scoffed the robust young man, a cold light in his tiger eyes: "That Ninety-nine Heavenly Tribulations can’t even be withstood by Saint Realm Great Powers, that kid is merely at the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm, withstand what?"

"He Kun, have you ever seen the Ninety-nine Heavenly Tribulations?"

He grabbed He Kun by the collar and asked coldly.

He Kun, pale-faced, whispered, "No, I haven’t seen it."

He had only heard it called the Ninety-nine Heavenly Tribulations by the elders who had died; judging from the intensity of that tribulation, it indeed seemed terrifying.

"I, the Fierce Battle Saint Heir, would like to see what capabilities this fellow who single-handedly faced the Ninety-nine Heavenly Tribulations has!" the robust young man said as he slowly rose.

"Saint Heir..."

He Kun’s expression changed instantly; was the Saint Heir seeking death?

"Brother Dao, don’t panic!" the Saint Heir from Qianyuan on the other side called out to the Fierce Battle Saint Heir, speaking slowly, "Rumor has it this person is extraordinarily strong, he surely has formidable aspects; this place is also under the Mo family’s control, we shouldn’t stir up unnecessary trouble."

"Besides, this person has connections with Mo Yunchui, the former head of the Eastern Desolate Demon Slaughter from the Mo family. Now that Mo Yunchui has fallen, but he has appeared here, we might as well use the Mo family’s power to suppress him."

The Saint Heir from Qianyuan transmitted his voice softly.
