Legend of the Great Sage

Chapter 593

Chapter 593 – Banquet (Three)

The palace ablazed with light overlooked the entire commandery city, as well as the entire Ruyi commandery .

Currently, this place served as the centre of the entire region, and it was all because of the existence of two people, Gu Yanying and Si Qing, or more accurately, a daemon too—Northmoon .

Li Qingshan had overwhelmed several dozen Daemon Commanders in a brutal fashion . Although no one understood why the daemons were fighting among themselves, the terrifying strength he had demonstrated in the battle left the entire Ruyi commandery shocked .

The name Northmoon was no longer something that was mentioned casually . Instead, he became the most terrifying enemy in the hearts of human cultivators .

The three of them could basically determine the overall situation of the entire Ruyi commandery .

Gu Yanying and Si Qing’s gazes passed through the dancing and collided mid-air, sending sparks flying .

Li Qingshan, however, sat quietly with his eyes down . The soft armour on him flowed with light as he refined it . After taking a seat, he had directed all of his focus to refining the arcane artifacts on him apart from drinking heavily, preparing for the bitter battle Gu Yanying described .

He could sense the surrounding atmosphere becoming more and more tense, but he instead became slightly excited .

Si Qing placed down his cup and said loudly, “Alright, all of you back down!”

The dancers who glided about like petals all landed on the ground . They each bowed towards Gu Yanying and Si Long, about to take their leave .

“Hold on! You with the mask, you’ve really been disrespectful with how you bow to his highness!”

The sturdy military general to Si Long’s side with a braided beard suddenly spoke . He stared at the masked woman with his extremely invasive eyes as if he wanted to see through the mask .

The woman bowed elegantly . “May I ask for your name, sir?”

Her voice was quite magnetic, very pleasant to the ear . Li Qingshan confirmed his thoughts as soon as he heard it . She was Qiu Haitang . Afterwards, he carefully studied her figure . Although she wore a set of loose, colourful clothes, it still struggled to hide her proud figure, which was filled with a mature and enticing charm .

He smiled inside . It really has been quite some time . Just how many people possess a figure like that? Though, why has she come here to perform?

E Dan . Normally, you would have no right to learn my name!”

“May I ask what sir E Dan has to say?” Qiu Haitang asked, neither too humble nor too haughty .

“I just want to see what you look like . If you’re ugly and you defile my eyes, then I’ll punish you severely . However, if you’re pretty and charming, you will be heavily rewarded . ”

E Dan smiled indecently without the slightest attempt at covering it up . He was like a crude, wild beast, directly judging a woman’s worth based on their appearance . Probably even an alluring beauty would not be enough to satisfy him .

This was the unscrupulousness that the strong showed to the weak, able to put forth endless exorbitant demands .

Si Qing, who placed great emphasis on etiquette, chose to remain silent at a time like this . He was slightly displeased by how Qiu Haitang had bowed to Gu Yanying first, so he allowed E Dan to make trouble .

If the weak sat a little to the front, or if they bungled the order they should bow in, it was rudeness, or even great disrespect . However, when the strong wanted to tease a woman in public, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it .

Qiu Haitang remained silent for a while, letting out a gloomy sigh from underneath the mask before removing the mask gently .

She had not performed this dance willingly . Instead, she was no longer the sect master of the Sect of Clouds and Rain and had been sent to perform by the new sect master . The sect master had also instructed her to charm and get on the good side of this prince Si Qing . She refused to do so, so all she could do was wear the mask .

The current sect master could tell she was unwilling, so she did not compel her to perform without a mask . After all, she felt that wearing a mask added a hint of mysterious charm, which might lead to an even better effect .

E Dan’s eyes lit up . Her face was like a flowering crabapple sleeping in spring, white with hints of red . She was solemnly beautiful yet also charming to the bone . She was truly a rare beauty . Coupled with that figure of hers, she would definitely be fantastic in bed .

“Sure enough, you do have some charm . You will be heavily rewarded!”

“Thank you, sir . ”

E Dan smiled . “But if you want your reward, you’ll have to return to my chambers with me . ”

If she had been a woman hungry for power, seeking every opportunity to become involved with these prominent figures of the Dragon province, she would probably agree immediately .

Qiu Haitang said, “Thank you for your kind intentions, but there’s no need for you to go so far for me . ”

E Dan’s smile coldened before gradually recovering . He asked, “Are you a virgin?”

This question itself was already quite humiliating . Qiu Haitang closed her lips and refused to answer . She had never thought the cultivators from the Dragon province would actually be so rude .

“If you are, I’ll accept you into my harem . Of course, I’ll have to check for myself too . If you’re not, then you will be heavily punished . Hahahaha!”

As if he had just said something extremely fascinating, E Dan laughed aloud .

The Hawkwolf guards were all furious . Although most of them did not know Qiu Haitang, this woman had clearly been called here by Gu Yanying . Insulting her was equivalent to provoking Gu Yanying . And, everyone would feel irritated if an outsider harassed a beauty of the Ruyi commandery like that anyway .

However, taking E Dan’s impressive cultivation in mind, they were furious, but they dared not speak up . Only E Dan’s laughter echoed through the entire hall .

Si Bao was unable to bear with it anymore . Right when she was about to speak up, she suddenly heard a sneer from behind .

“That’s utter dogshit!” Li Qingshan had downed many cups already, so he was slightly tipsy . After hearing E Dan’s words, how could he hold himself back?

“Kid, who are you talking about!?” E Dan’s laughter came to a halt as he glared at Li Qingshan as if he was in disbelief that a measly Foundation Establishment cultivator would actually speak to him like that .

Qiu Haitang looked over too and stared at Li Qingshan in surprise .

“Is there another dog here? Sigh, if this dog is a purebred with a pure colour for a coat, I’ll spare him . But if it’s a dogshit mongrel, then I’d like to see how dog meat tastes . ”

“Get over here!” E Dan scrunched up his eyebrows and bellowed at Li Qingshan .

With a bang, the cups, plates, and bowls before Li Qingshan shattered, splattering food everywhere .

A layer of ice armour rose up from the soft armour on Li Qingshan, leaving him unscathed . He stood up slowly, even holding a jug of alcohol, as he looked up at E Dan .

“Sure enough, a mongrel! Your words are like flatulence, and your flatulence is like talking! All of it is dogshit!”

This was no longer mockery and sneers, but a naked insult right to the face . Si Qing’s expression changed as well, while E Dan’s face went from red to violent and then to black .

Si Bao giggled . It was no wonder her big sis valued this person so much . Just this courage alone was very rare . She said to Li Qingshan with her soul sense, “Curse away . I have your back!”

E Dan took a step forward . With a great bang, the entire palace seemed to shake as his aura crushed down on Li Qingshan like an ocean .

Qiu Haitang was only indirectly affected, yet she felt like she was about to suffocate . What a powerful sense of malice!

Li Qingshan tossed the jug of alcohol aside like he was not affected at all, walking over to E Dan . He stared straight at E Dan with his eyes that clearly contrasted between the dark irises and eye whites, shining vaguely with red light .

E Dan’s heart skipped a beat . This gaze! How despicable! If it weren’t for today, I only need a single hand to crush this little animal to death! But I can’t do that during the banquet considering the bigger picture .

During the banquet, it was very common for each side to provoke the other . If Gu Yanying and Si Qing targeted each other’s subordinates, then they would be stooping too low in terms of status . However, if anyone began fighting because they could not help themselves, then the situation would be different .

“You little animal, do you think you can live under the wings of someone else for your whole life?”

“Why don’t you try and kill me, you mongrel?”
