169: No one can defeat him, Yang Yi takes action
A person said nonchalantly, “Yang Yi will be here in a moment.”
“I'll spar with him first.”
“If I can't win,”
“Sun Shengtao, then I'll be counting on you.”
Sun Shengtao was a young man in his early twenties.
He carried a sword on his back.
The sword had no scabbard.
It was wrapped in hemp rope.
It was impossible to tell what kind of sword it was.
Sun Shengtao calmly hummed in response.
He looked around.
He seemed to be looking for someone.
Suddenly,
his eyes lit up.
He nodded to a few people.
Saying he had something to do.
And would be back later.
Then,
he stepped towards Jin Fengxian, who was not far away.
Jin Fengxian was sitting alone in the pavilion.
Her right hand held a yellow chrysanthemum.
Her left hand plucked the petals of the chrysanthemum.
At her feet was a small pile of yellow petals.
As soon as Sun Shengtao reached the pavilion,
a gust of wind blew.
It blew away the petals at Jin Fengxian's feet.
She looked at her feet.
Her already poor mood became even more irritable.
Especially after seeing Sun Shengtao.
Her entire face turned cold.
Her entire face turned cold.
“Why is it you?”
Sun Shengtao smiled.
He came before Jin Fengxian.
“Who did you think it would be?”
Jin Fengxian's brow furrowed even deeper.
She stood up, preparing to leave.
As soon as she stood up,
Sun Shengtao asked,
“I have something I'd like to confirm with you.”
“What is it?”
Jin Fengxian was very impatient.
But restrained herself due to Sun Shengtao's status.
“I heard that you had a battle with Yang Yi not long ago.”
“And you were defeated by him.”
“I wonder if this is true.”
“False.”
Jin Fengxian turned and walked away.
Although she disliked Sun Shengtao,
the two of them had known each other since childhood.
And they had experienced some things together before.
So, she knew Sun Shengtao's intentions like the back of her hand.
As soon as she heard him ask,
she knew he was looking for trouble with Yang Yi.
Sun Shengtao was even weaker than herself.
So, she simply said it was false.
Hoping that Yang Yi would publicly and severely teach Sun Shengtao a lesson.
Sun Shengtao, however, did not know Jin Fengxian's thoughts.
He thought Jin Fengxian was telling the truth.
He returned to the people he had just been chatting with, beaming.
He briefly told them what had just happened.
His expression grew even more smug.
His gaze once again swept through the crowd.
This time he was not looking for Jin Fengxian.
But Yang Yi.
However,
at this moment, Yang Yi was still asleep.
Inside the banquet hall,
there were many people who wanted to find trouble with Yang Yi.
Even more people were discussing Yang Yi.
Even Clan Chiefs or Sect Leaders like Jin Qiuyan couldn't help but say a few words about Yang Yi.
Recently, Yang Yi had been enjoying boundless prestige.
Especially after becoming the disciple of Manxin Old Ancestor.
He had become an even more sought-after figure in Yun Province.
Some people wanted to curry favor with him.
Others wanted to bring him down.
Even the Yang family benefited from him.
Of course,
while benefiting, there would naturally be many troubles.
Fortunately, Yang Ming was extremely capable at handling matters.
He could easily resolve the current troubles.
Haitang also came.
She had specifically come to the Jinling Family to attend this banquet.
It had nothing to do with Yang Yi.
She had a close friend in the Jinling Family.
This person was Jin Yanxi.
The two of them found a secluded corner.
And whispered to each other.
Haitang asked about Yang Yi's recent affairs.
After Jin Yanxi finished speaking,
seeing Haitang's fluctuating expression,
she couldn't help but ask coldly,
“You care about him so much.”
“You wouldn't have any improper thoughts about him, would you?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
Haitang pushed Jin Yanxi.
Her face instantly turned cold.
“This guy has a lot of good things on him.”
“I think he has a huge Treasure Trove on him.”
“As long as we get along well with him,”
“In the future, we'll have whatever we want.”
Jin Yanxi scoffed.
She didn't think Yang Yi could have anything good on him.
She thought everything Yang Yi had came from Purple Harmony Mountain Valley.
“Why isn't he here yet?”
Haitang glanced towards the entrance.
She asked curiously.
Jin Yanxi shook her head.
She was indifferent to Yang Yi.
Who knew what he was doing?
After half an hour,
the banquet began.
Yang Yi had still not arrived.
Jin Xiaodie, however, did arrive.
Several people asked her about Yang Yi's whereabouts.
Jin Xiaodie still looked timid.
Speaking softly,
“Yang Yi, Yang Yi is still sleeping.”
Everyone gnashed their teeth in anger.
But there was nothing they could do.
The banquet began.
Everyone exchanged polite greetings first.
Then they got down to business.
The so-called business.
Was for the young people to introduce themselves.
And display their abilities.
To attract the attention of other girls.
The girls were dressed up beautifully.
And gathered together, chatting and laughing.
Just as a few young men finished showing off their Family backgrounds,
a young man in the crowd said impatiently, “Nanshan Wang Family?”
“Which obscure Family did this come from?”
“Why have I never heard of it?”
“Don't make a fool of yourself here.”
“Get down quickly.”
As the voice spoke,
the young man walked out.
This person was very handsome.
He cupped his hands to the crowd.
And introduced himself.
“I am Li Shenghun, Young Master of Tiandao Sect, the Young Sect Leader of the Heavenly Dao Sect, one of the Twelve Sects of Yun Province.”
“I am here.”
“Not to find a wife.”
“I just heard that Yang Yi is at the Jinling Family.”
“So I want to have a match with him.”
“I don't know where Yang Yi is.”
“Does he have the guts to come out and fight me?”
Everyone looked around.
They couldn't find Yang Yi.
And whispered among themselves.
“Is this guy really at the Jinling Family?”
“Why isn't he coming over?”
“How would he dare to come over?”
“With the Seven Injury Divine Sword, he dared to come here and compete with us.”
“Without the Seven Injury Divine Sword, he's nothing.”
“Is that so? The Seven Injury Divine Sword is gone?”
“I think he's hiding.”
“Even if he hides in a rat hole,”
“I, your young master, will find him.”
“Today, I must fight him.”
Someone in the crowd cheered.
Jin Mu of the Jinling Family explained to everyone,
“He is busy with other things.”
“He'll be here in a moment. Let him come.”
“You all can spar with each other first.”
This group of people was unwilling.
They insisted on waiting for Yang Yi to arrive.
If Yang Yi didn't come,
they wouldn't do anything.
Everyone stood in their respective positions.
Doing nothing.
The entire banquet hall seemed very strange.
The atmosphere was also very awkward.
Jin Qiuyan frowned.
She ordered her attendants to invite Yang Yi over.
After half an incense stick's time,
Yang Yi arrived leisurely.
When he arrived at the banquet hall,
the buttons on his clothes were still undone.
He was looking down, buttoning them.
Seeing him so disrespectful,
everyone gnashed their teeth in hatred.
Li Shenghun, Young Master of Tiandao Sect didn't even give Yang Yi a chance to speak.
He drew his treasured blade.
And struck down.
The blade light flashed.
Everyone was astonished.
No one expected him to suddenly attack.
This was no different from a sneak attack.
Just now, he had boasted that he wanted to compete with Yang Yi.
Now to sneak attack.
It seemed a bit unreasonable.
The blade light fell.
The banquet hall remained intact.
