The carriage fell silent, and Li Jinxuan blushed, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into.
She had always been soone who followed rules, never having been teased like this before.
No matter how shy, embarrassed, angry, or frustrated she felt, she kept it all to herself.
The myriad of emotions on her face made her look very endearing.
Among the won Long Fei had seen, only Li Jinxuan had the gentle, classical beauty of a small-town lady.
Other won were even more wild than modern won.
Green Water Lake, a famous spot in Celestial Realms City.
Nobles and common folk alike loved to co here for leisure and play in the evenings.
This place was known for its courtesans and inns, where girls from all over gathered.
Little Peng King and his group were staying here.
At this mont, the surrounding area by the lake was already crowded with cultivators from all corners.
The Emperor’s most beloved Seventh Princess was going to personally take action, naturally drawing a crowd.
Many young Demon Clan mbers had never even seen this princess before.
On the lakeshore, when a certain female led her group over, a buzz erupted as all eyes were drawn to her.
This woman wore a veil and exuded unparalleled grace.
However, she carried an icy deanor, shrouded in a white mist like the aura of a fairy.
A group of young n excitedly shouted, "Which family’s fairy is this?"
"Don’t you know? She’s Chang Xi, the Saintess of the Broad Cold Palace!"
"The Saintess of Broad Cold Palace is here?"
"..."
Before they could admire further, another group of stunning won arrived together.
The onlookers, who hadn’t seen much, buzzed with excitent again.
Soone gulped and said, "Look, the Saintess of Yaochi Sacred Land is here too."
"I recognize her, that’s Saintess Wang Xiaoya from before, who outshone all the geniuses at Heaven-Piercing Palace!"
"I heard she was close with the Imperial Son-in-law and stayed out two nights without returning!"
"Indeed, all the geniuses in Capital City are looking to confront the Imperial Son-in-law about it!"
"Wow, these are all goddesses!"
"Who’s that little beauty next to Little Ya? Her aura is remarkable too?"
"Seems like she’s also a Saintess of Yaochi Sacred Land!"
"..."
The male cultivators, lacking restraint, whispered among themselves, while the faces of the female cultivators were filled with envy and resentnt.
Soone also scoffed, "So what if they’re pretty, what can they do?"
"Their figures aren’t even better than mine! These n must be blind!"
"What saintess, give a chance to face them!"
"..."
After a while, when a group of high-spirited male cultivators arrived, the won excitedly shouted, "Look, those foreign geniuses are here."
"Young Master Feng Chi of Divine King Star is the most handso!"
"Don’t you have taste? I think Young Master Crane Cry of Feather King Star is the most handso! Look at him in his white robes and jade belt, he looks like an immortal."
"How is a winged birdman handso? I think Young Master Ying Wuque of Nether King Star is the most handso, with his stern face, he looks so cool."
"Your Ying Wuque is the birdman, looking sinister like a zombie."
"Your Crane Cry is the birdman!"
"..."
The duel hadn’t even started yet, and these won were already arguing.
On the lake, a lodious cry caused the water to ripple outward in waves.
A handso young man with a hooked nose landed on the surface of the water, causing an uproar among the female Human Race cultivators.
"Little Peng King is here!"
"He’s the son of the Ten Emperors of Demon Capital City?"
"He’s so handso!"
"Too bad he’s from the Demon Clan!"
"What’s wrong with being from the Demon Clan? Haven’t they all taken human form now?"
"..."
Standing on the water surface, Little Peng King heard the discussions among the female cultivators, showing a hint of pride on his face.
The Roc Clan was renowned for producing handso n.
Unlike the Peacock Clan, which produced beautiful won.
The two clans were the epito of good looks among the Demon Clan.
With hands behind his back, dressed in a purple-golden robe, he called out to the other side, "Seventh Princess, since you’re here, why not co out and et?"
The Seventh Princess, clad in a gown adorned with peach blossom red, descended from the air, staring at Little Peng King with a smirk, "Why the rush? To deal with a birdman like you, there’s no need for to step in personally."
Little Peng King’s face turned grim, "Weren’t you the one who challenged ?"
With a mischievous look, the Seventh Princess replied, "Yes, I challenged you, but it’s fine if my husband fights for , right?"
"You’re talking about that legendary Imperial Son-in-law?"
Little Peng King raised an eyebrow.
The bunch of talented youngsters behind him from the Demon Clan exchanged glances, whispering among themselves.
With her head held high, the Seventh Princess said, "As long as you know. If you’re scared, leave now. Don’t cry and run ho to your mother after getting hurt later!"
Her sharp tongue left Little Peng King’s face twitching with anger.
He glared at the Seventh Princess, shouting, "I’m afraid your groom wouldn’t dare to show up. If he does, I’ll make you a widow right away!"
"Oh, really?"
Before his words could finish, a muffled shout like thunder and lightning echoed from the sky, shaking everyone’s ears.
Soone ca falling from above, stepping right on Little Peng King’s head.
Little Peng King dodged rapidly but failed, taking a direct hit, causing the water beneath them to splash up.
The water surface within a hundred ters around sank, then shot up to spray ten ters high.
A deafening cry resounded.
A golden light appeared on Little Peng King’s head, shaking the sky fiercely.
The man leaped away from above his head, landing beside the Seventh Princess.
Li Jinxuan behind them breathed a sigh of relief, thankful they arrived on ti.
Looking at the man beside her, the Seventh Princess was delighted, but she pouted, "Weren’t you not planning to co?"
"I was afraid soone would bully you!"
Long Fei smiled, patting her head, telling her to step back to the shore.
The Seventh Princess was overjoyed, feeling like a claid flower, and even gave Wang Xiaoya in the distance a smug look.
Wang Xiaoya smiled, showing no displeasure.
Not far from her, Chang Xi eyed Long Fei intently, frowning.
On the lake, the golden light around Little Peng King receded, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s, coldly calling out to Long Fei, "You’re that Monster Consort?"
"Doesn’t it look like it?"
With a smirk, Long Fei said to him, "Instead of waiting properly for the Ascension Road to open in Capital City, you just keep causing trouble. Do you really think there’s no one in Celestial Realms City to handle you?"
Proudly, Little Peng King laughed, "Imperial Son-in-law, you’ve spent too long in office, speaking in bureaucratic tone. I, Little Peng King, have always acted recklessly. I’ve already experienced Celestial Realms City’s geniuses, none can match . I hope you won’t disappoint ."
He twisted his neck, though Long Fei’s earlier stomp was painful, he couldn’t afford to lose face verbally.
Pointing at the water, Long Fei stirred the lake, forming a transparent water sword, gripping it in his hand.
With a sweep of the water sword in his hand, he pointed at Little Peng King, "Co on, let asure your worth!"
The spectators furrowed their brows, thinking that in front of Little Peng King, only the Imperial Son-in-law could remain so composed and dignified among the geniuses of Celestial Realms City.
