140: Chapter 140 Qin Yu Attends the Banquet: Who is the Host and Who is the Guest?

Above the imperial chariot, Qin Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his robes flapping loudly in the gale.

His gaze fell upon the summit of that cloud-shrouded divine mountain.

"Ji Haoyue."

"Have you washed your neck clean yet..."

"This Divine Son is here to collect you!"

Bulao Mountain.

One of the most ancient and mysterious forbidden zones in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

It does not exist in any known territory in the world.

Instead, it is an independent world floating outside the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

At this moment, this immortal land, usually silent for eternity, was becoming lively as never before.

In the Void Realm outside the mountain gate, hundreds of luxurious war chariots and ancient flying treasures were suspended.

Each one emitted a holy radiance, representing a top-tier sect famous in its own region.

Experts from various Holy Lands, Ancient Sects, and Imperial Dynasties of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths had all arrived.

They had restrained all their usual arrogance.

Respectfully following the guidance of the Ji Family attendants, they stepped on foot into the mountain gate shrouded in immortal mist.

Because this was the territory of the Everlasting Ji Family.

An existence whose very name was enough to make the ages gasp for breath.

Within the mountain gate, immortal cranes chirped in unison, and divine deer roamed!

Everywhere were Divine Plants and immortal flowers long extinct in the outside world.

The Longevity Substance was so thick it could not be dispersed.

Every Cultivator who stepped foot here felt refreshed, as if their Lifespan had increased a little.

However, hidden beneath this peaceful immortal scenery was a murderous aura that made one's heart palpitate.

Everyone's gaze glanced intentionally or unintentionally toward the same direction in the sky.

They were all waiting.

Waiting for the true protagonist of today's grand gathering to appear.

Rumble!

Just at this moment, the distant firmament tore open.

Nine massive black Dragons of the Saint realm, exuding monstrous ferocity, pulled a luxurious and majestic imperial chariot, crushing the Void Realm and breaking through the boundary to arrive.

That imperial chariot did not stop in the distance like the other forces.

Instead, it directly ignored all the aerial Restrictions set by the Ji Family.

With an extremely overbearing posture, it crossed the entire welcoming plaza.

Finally, it hovered before the cloud-piercing steps of the Bulao Mountain main hall.

Roar!

The nine Dragons chanted in unison, their voices shaking the universe!

The terrifying Dragon might swept out like a tsunami, causing the entire Bulao Mountain to tremble slightly.

Those experts from various parties who were originally talking instantly fell silent.

One by one, their faces turned pale, looking in horror at that imperial chariot which, like an ancient divine mountain, exuded endless oppression.

Under the gaze of everyone, the curtains of the chariot slowly pulled open.

A slender figure stepped out with hands behind his back.

The person wore a black robe, spotless, with no expression on his peerlessly handsome face.

He did not release earth-shattering pressure.

He even restrained all of his own aura.

Yet it was precisely this state of returning to simplicity that made people feel even more afraid.

He was like a bottomless black hole.

Standing there quietly, he could swallow all the light and hope around him.

Qin Yu had appeared.

His gaze swept indifferently across the plaza below, over those faces filled with awe, jealousy, or resentment.

That look had not the slightest ripple.

It was like a master inspecting his own vegetable garden.

Just at this moment, an old man with white hair, wearing Ji Family attire and having a cultivation at the Peak of the Saint realm, came up with a face full of smiles.

"Hehe, Divine Son Qin has come from afar, making my Ji Family shine with brilliance."

The old man bowed slightly, his posture very low, but his tone carried a trace of imperceptible arrogance.

"The grand gathering is about to begin, so please, Divine Son, follow this old man to your seat..."

He made a gesture of invitation, intending to lead the way for Qin Yu, quietly trying to occupy the dominant position.

However, Qin Yu did not even cast a glance at him from the corner of his eye.

He directly took a step and brushed past him.

"A watchdog, and you dare to lead the way in front of This Divine Son?"

The light sentence was clearly transmitted into the ears of everyone present.

The smile on the Ji Family old man's face instantly froze.

His entire face turned liver-colored at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A terrifying murderous intent flashed from within him, but it was ultimately forcibly suppressed by him.

He clenched his fists tightly.

He watched helplessly as Qin Yu walked alone up the white jade stairs leading to the main hall.

He dared not utter a single word in retort.

Humiliation!

Naked humiliation!

Before the grand gathering had even begun, this young Qin Family Divine Son had given the Everlasting Ji Family a resounding slap in the face!

All the guests present were shocked to their cores, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Qin Yu ignored the resentful gaze behind him and walked into the main hall as if strolling in a garden.

Inside the main hall, the space was as vast as a Small World.

There were magnificent buildings, immortal music drifting about, and thousands of jade tables arranged neatly.

Behind every table sat a Cultivator with a powerful aura.

The moment Qin Yu stepped in, all sounds in the hall ceased abruptly.

Countless gazes gathered in unison.

Qin Yu acted as if he had not heard.

His line of sight directly bypassed everyone and cast toward the deepest part of the hall, at that highest, most magnificent white jade platform.

Above the high platform, clouds swirled.

A figure was sitting alone in the central main seat, leisurely tasting tea.

That was a young man wearing a golden robe.

He was extremely handsome, with eyes like stars.

A mysterious Dao rhyme flowed around him, transcending the world, as if he did not belong to this mortal realm.

It was none other than Ji Haoyue.

Seemingly sensing Qin Yu's gaze, Ji Haoyue slowly raised his head.

The two's gazes collided in the air.

Hum!

There was no earth-shattering sound.

Yet it felt as if two completely different worlds had collided most violently at this moment.

The Primordial Divine Demon Hegemon Body within Qin Yu and the primordial chaos heart within Ji Haoyue resonated unprecedentedly at this moment.

A desire and thirst for devouring one another, originating from the deepest part of their Bloodline, grew wildly!

What a peerless great medicine!

What a perfect vessel!

The same thought flashed through both their minds simultaneously.

After a brief eye contact, Ji Haoyue made the first move.

He lifted the teacup in his hand and toasted in the direction of Qin Yu from afar.

The corners of his mouth curled into a meaningful, somewhat playful smile.

Qin Yu also returned a smile.

That smile was cold and ghastly.

It was full of the excitement of a hunter discovering top-tier prey.

At this time, a Ji Family attendant stepped forward quickly and bowed respectfully to Qin Yu.

"Divine Son Qin, your seat is over here, please."

The attendant pointed.

That was a seat located below and to the left of the high platform.

Although the position was considered honorable, it was clearly lower than the main seat on the high platform.

It was even further back than the seats of the sect masters of some hidden Ancient Sects.

This was the Ji Family's second probing.

It was also their second provocation.

Everyone held their breath, wanting to see how Qin Yu would respond.

Would he endure and accept it, or would he lash out on the spot?

"My seat?"

Qin Yu heard this and let out a soft laugh, the laughter full of undisguised mockery.
