The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

As the initiator of the Banquet of Elegance, Xuan Jin had a lot of things to take care of beforehand.

However, in this era, he was also the leader of the young generation of the Heavenly Dragon Race. Naturally, he had to return to the position of the Heavenly Dragon Race.

He knew that Su Jingzhen and Xuening were both newcomers to the first tier of the Heavenly Dragon Race.

The location of the three first-tier Heavenly Dragon Race members was where he should be.

Just as Xuan Jin arrived at Su Jingzhen’s side, the young disciples of the Zhongzhou Heavenly Dragon Race suddenly appeared, adding several dozen seats next to Su Jingzhen and the others.

“Junior Brother Su, Junior Sister Xuening, I finally get to see you.

This time, I had to prepare for the Banquet of Elegance and couldn’t go to the teleportation place to greet you. It was my fault, and I hope you can forgive me.”

As soon as he reached Su Jingzhen, Xuan Jin revealed a warm smile and immediately began to apologize.

His demeanor was like a gentle breeze that made people feel at ease.

They instinctively nodded and bowed in greeting.

Although it was their first meeting, they had indeed heard of Xuan Jin’s reputation.

However, Qiu Yaoyao just gave him a cold look and did not acknowledge him.

“The Heavenly Dragon Race now has two more first-tier members with Junior Brother Su and Junior Sister Xuening. This is truly a blessing for our Heavenly Dragon Race.

Since you have come to Zhongzhou to participate in the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition, I will make sure to treat you well as a host.”

Sitting in the newly added seats, Xuan Jin smiled at Su Jingzhen and Xuening as he spoke, completely unfazed by Qiu Yaoyao’s cold attitude.

As he spoke, Xuan Jin exuded a friendly demeanor, immediately revealing the secret that Su Jingzhen and Xuening had been keeping.

Su Jingzhen was determined to stand on the same front as Qiu Yaoyao against Xuan Jin. However, in this situation, he found no angle from which to launch an attack.

He couldn’t possibly start a conflict just because Xuan Jin revealed his first-tier status; that would be too much of a stretch.

He knew the traditional virtue of not striking a smiling face.

If Xuan Jin had come and mocked him or directly attacked him over Qiu Yaoyao’s issue, it would have been easier.

That way, he could have immediately drawn a clear line with Xuan Jin and dealt with things as they came.

However, the current situation made him feel rather passive. This kind of opponent was the most difficult to deal with.

Before Su Jingzhen could respond, Qiu Yaoyao frowned and said, “What do you mean by ‘fulfilling my duty as a host’? Are you a person from Zhongzhou?

Do I not have a mansion in Zhongzhou? Anything you, Xuan Jin, can do for them, I, Qiu Yaoyao, can do as well.

And I never thought of relying on you, Xuan Jin, for the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition.

Look, Immortal Fairy Xuan Su, Daoist Qianxue, and even Daoist Jian Ling have all come for Jingzhen. What are you in front of them?”

As soon as Xuan Jin finished speaking, Qiu Yaoyao began her barrage, coldly mocking and even walking over to sit beside Su Jingzhen, holding his arm.

She was clearly trying to provoke Xuan Jin. She knew that he was putting on a perfect act, and if she didn’t challenge him directly, Su Jingzhen and Xuening might be swayed.

Her direct approach surprised even Su Jingzhen and Xuan Jin himself.

He hadn’t expected Qiu Yaoyao to be so assertive. A shadow of darkness flashed in his eyes, but his smile didn’t fade.

The internal dynamics of the Heavenly Dragon Race left the surrounding people, including Han Qianxue and the Immortal Fairy Xuan Su, a bit confused.

They all couldn’t understand what the Heavenly Dragon Race was all about.

Moreover, what Xuan Jin had said earlier had left them in shock.

Their gazes couldn’t help but sweep over Su Jingzhen and Xuan Jin who were standing next to him.

They were all well aware of the significance of being the first sequence in the Heavenly Dragon Race.

But they hadn’t expected both Su Jingzhen and Xuening to be in the first sequence.

And now the Heavenly Dragon Race actually had four top seeds. This was truly an extraordinary achievement.

“The foundation of the Heavenly Dragon Race might be even more powerful than we imagined.”

“But if Fellow Daoist Su is indeed the first sequence of the Heavenly Dragon Race, then the value of befriending him is even greater.”

“……”

Jian Ling and the others muttered to themselves, their gazes becoming even brighter as they looked at Su Jingzhen.

“Yaoyao, what are you talking about? I’ve always been in Zhongzhou, while you’ve always been in the Luo River Basin. Of course, I’m more familiar with this place.”

Xuan Jin continued to smile as he said this to Qiu Yaoyao.

Although Qiu Yaoyao’s intimate manner of holding Su Jingzhen was causing him great pain, he wouldn’t lash out or show his displeasure in front of everyone.

This wouldn’t be in line with the image he had cultivated.

But Qiu Yaoyao still didn’t appreciate his words.

She sneered again, “Even though I don’t live here often, I’m just as familiar with this place.

I don’t need your guidance. As I said, we won’t be participating in this Four Waters Martial Arts Competition with you.

Jingzhen will definitely take first place!”

As she spoke, Qiu Yaoyao’s tone remained cold.

But when she mentioned Su Jingzhen, there was a noticeable gentleness in her voice,

And the way she addressed him was filled with affection.

Su Jingzhen himself felt a bit helpless once again.

This made their positions clear.

But this was actually a good thing; he didn’t want to keep on pretending with Xuan Jin.

It was better to draw a clear line.

Xuan Jin’s expression froze again, and then he seemed to nod with a bitter smile.

He didn’t say anything else.

He liked Qiu Yaoyao and was willing to be patient with her, but he wouldn’t humiliate himself in front of everyone.

After all, he was a well-known figure, and continuing to pursue her like this would make him look like a pathetic dog.

But at this moment, his heart was already cold.

The conversation within the Heavenly Dragon Race wasn’t deliberately trying to hide anything.

It was revealed directly to all the powers present, revealing their internal dissension.

Their expressions suddenly became more playful.

“Interesting, this generation of Heavenly Dragon Race is indeed full of talented individuals. I didn’t expect there to be four first sequences.

But their internal discord is so obvious, truly, two tigers cannot coexist on the same mountain.

But I wonder how Su Jingzhen compares to Xuan Jin?

Xuan Jin’s ability to condense the arena earlier showed at least late-stage Celestial Being Realm combat power.

Maybe even at the level of the Great Perfection Realm.

Su Jingzhen seemed far inferior in comparison.

If they were to actually fight in Zhongzhou, Xuan Jin probably has a hundred ways to kill Su Jingzhen.”

“……”

Everyone muttered quietly.

In the end, they all preferred Xuan Jin to Su Jingzhen.

Just as the spectators were discussing this, someone suddenly jumped into the air in the arena.

“Daoist Su Heavenly Dragon Race from the Luo River Basin, dare you accept my challenge?”
