Die Feiyu was still as pretty as before. She was not as beautiful as Ji Mengtian but she had a special charm.
Standing next to Ji Mengtian, she didn't feel like a flower matched with a leaf.
When they came in, Lu Li saw many young ladies pouting to cover up their jealousy.
If Lu Li were a woman, he would be jealous as well. He was not as pretty as Die Feiyu, not as elegant as Die Feiyu, not as rich in family background, and not to mention the gap between their realms.
The young master she admired was circling around Ji Mengtian but Ji Mengtian didn't even spare him a glance …
In this world, some people were born to be the main characters. They were the center of attention wherever they went and the entire world revolved around them.
Ji Mengtian was like that. There was nothing to be jealous of.
Lu Li was not envious of her at all. This girl had been tortured by him for several months, hovering between life and death. At the moment, her sister was still locked up in the Ding of Barbarian God …
Lu Li lowered his head and grinned unscrupulously, thinking of how Ji Mengtian and the others were blasted by thunderbolts in the Ding of Barbarian God every day.
"Young Master Ye, this is not right of you.
You sneaked out halfway through the banquet. You are still unhappy with Mengtian … "
Ji Mengtian ignored the young masters who were trying to please her. She looked at Ye Luo with a smile.
She knew why Ye Luo left halfway. Yang Xuan and Lu Suan were all here. Even though Ye Luo didn't mean to be mean, he still felt uncomfortable.
She came to greet him because Ye Luo left early. Otherwise, why would Ji Mengtian come to a banquet of this level?
Ye Luo forced a smile. He bowed to her and said, "Lady Mengtian, as you can see, there are so many people waiting for me to entertain them. I can't be biased."
Even though disciples of the 12 Royal Families were fighting fiercely in secret, on the surface, they were living in harmony.
Ji Mengtian came here on purpose as if she wanted to bury the hatchet.
Ye Luo was talented and he had the demeanor of a master. If nothing else, he would be the next leader of the Tumulus of Universe.
Naturally, Ji Mengtian dared not to offend the future Family Patriarch of the Ye Family. She invited him to the banquet and came here at this moment to settle the scores.
Ye Luo and Ye Rong introduced some disciples of seventh rank families to Ji Mengtian. As for disciples of fifth or sixth rank families, there was no need.
Those people were not qualified to talk to Ji Mengtian.
More than half of the people in the hall stood up and surrounded her. Only some young ladies were sitting, pouting as if they were dissatisfied. A group of men surrounded Ji Mengtian like flies, throwing tantrums at her.
Lu Li didn't stand up. Theoretically speaking, he should have gone over with the group of men. But Ji Mengtian made him uncomfortable.
She had plotted against him several times in the past, which made him even more resentful. Now, he was surrounding her like a fly?
How could he possibly do such a thing?
He winked at Gu Min and asked him to surround them. He sat in the corner, keeping a low profile. Ji Mengtian would not be able to see him even if she was surrounded by a group of people.
Ji Mengtian was the main character while Die Feiyu was the supporting character.
She was bored to death and looked around. Suddenly, her eyes fell on Lu Li who was sitting in the corner. Lu Li sitting alone was very eye-catching, so she took a few more glances at him.
"Eh?"
Die Feiyu suddenly murmured. She felt Lu Li looked familiar but he was a stranger after a closer look. She thought about it and then used psychic power to check Lu Li.
Lu Li sensed a strand of psychic power coming over. A glint of coldness rose in his eyes. He looked at Die Feiyu who looked away when she was caught peeping.
"Oh no!"
Lu Li's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Die Feiyu had sensed something and was suspicious because of her "Source of Life" Bloodline?
Clearly, Die Feiyu was suspicious when she used psychic power.
Lu Li reacted quickly. While Die Feiyu was looking away, he took out a Heaven Soul Pellet and swallowed it. Then, he picked up a goblet of wine and drank it down.
The pellet was consumed in an instant. A surge of unknown energy went to Lu Li's mind and formed a protective circle around his Soul Pond.
If someone wanted to check with psychic power, they must break through the energy circle around Lu Li's Soul Pond first.
"What is it?"
Ji Mengtian noticed something was wrong with Die Feiyu. She turned around and asked.
Die Feiyu thought about it. She plucked up her courage, looked at Lu Li again and said, "That man … is special."
"Special?"
Die Feiyu's words shocked many people. Many people followed her line of sight and looked in the direction she was looking at.
Ye Luo felt something was wrong. Could Lu Li be seen through?
Ye Luo used psychic power to check. He was relieved to find that there was some energy protecting Lu Li's Soul Pond.
Lu Li was a different person now. His soul was protected. Even if someone were to check, they wouldn't be able to see anything wrong.
Ji Mengtian glanced at it and frowned slightly. She did not see anything special.
The peak of the Eternal Realm. He was average, relatively speaking.
His looks were average. He didn't have the temperament of an average young master. There was something wild about him. He was not outstanding, either. Why would Die Feiyu pay so much attention to someone like him?
Lu Li drank leisurely as if he didn't know that many people were looking at him. He acted like a hermit.
He didn't show it on his face but inside, he was getting anxious. At least 100 psychic powers had scanned him. He wondered if they had seen through him.
"Nothing special about him?"
Ji Mengtian couldn't hold back her curiosity. She asked Die Feiyu in a low voice. Many people were looking at Die Feiyu with curiosity.
Die Feiyu was confused as well. She looked at Lu Li and felt he looked familiar. But she couldn't remember where she had seen him.
She didn't know why she was attracted to him. She murmured, "I don't know. I just … feel that he is special."
Die Feiyu's voice was low but Lu Li heard it. Seeing that many people were looking at him again, Lu Li couldn't sit still.
Something would go wrong if someone were to check on him. Maybe some powerful Human Sovereign Realm warriors in hiding would come to check on him.
"Ha, ha, ha!"
He threw the goblet on the table, wiped his mouth rudely and stood up. His eyes glowed as he stared at Die Feiyu lecherously. He said loudly, "Damn it. I have been keeping a low profile and I have been sitting in a corner. I didn't know that I was as eye-catching as a firefly in the night sky.
Alas … being too charming can be a troublesome thing.
Lady Die Feiyu, I am Gu Fengliu. People call me the Girl Killer.
I suggest that you don't get curious about me. All the girls who tried to approach me ended up miserable. "
"Pff …"
Almost at the same time, several young ladies spat out the tea in their mouths. They choked and coughed, blushing.
Many young masters and young ladies, including Ji Mengtian, Die Feiyu, Ye Luo and Ye Yu, were dumbfounded.
They had seen shameless people but never like this.
Everyone here was a young master and young ladies from big families. Who would speak so rudely?
Girl Killer …
If Lu Li were Ye Luo and Die Feiyu were a young lady from a fifth or sixth rank family, it would be normal for him to flirt like this.
Lu Li was just a young master from a fifth rank family. He didn't have power, family background or looks. How could he flirt with Lady Die Feiyu in public?
