Ruo Suifeng was right. Xiang Shaoyun was using his footwork intent, and coupled with his Overlord's Nine Nether Steps, he was moving at a speed exceeding even the speed of a peak King who was on the verge of entering the Emperor Realm.

In other words, Xiang Shaoyun's speed was comparable to the likes of Long Yunfei, Xie Gongzi, and Tang Zhanfei. In fact, if Xiang Shaoyun fully activated his Overlord's Nine Nether Steps, he would be even faster than them.

Of course, footwork intent alone was not enough to get through the perimeter of devil fish. He still needed to use his Nether Soul Domain to reveal the openings of their attacks to be able to move smoothly amidst them.

Before the people on the s.h.i.+p had even recovered from their shock, Xiang Shaoyun was already standing on the s.h.i.+p in a carefree manner. With his arrival, there were now 19 youths in total who had managed to cross the lake and get on the s.h.i.+p.

”My apologies for making everyone wait,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he cupped his hands with a smile on his face.

n.o.body replied. Instead, they started drinking silently. In their eyes, Xiang Shaoyun had merely crossed the lake through some trick. His strength was completely incomparable to them. Thus, they still looked down on him.

Huo Xudong, who was seated at a corner, waved to Xiang Shaoyun and said, ”Brother Xiang, come have a seat here.”

Of the people present, Huo Xudong, s.h.i.+ Hai, and Can Wunian were the representatives of the Seven Villains. Xiang Shaoyun was surprised to see that all of them had managed to reach this far. Inwardly, he mused, Looks like the Seven Villains really want this badly.

He nodded at Huo Xudong before he looked at Yu Caidie, preparing to greet her. But the moment his gaze landed on her face, he was stunned. In a daze he stared at the beautiful young lady. A certain scene surfaced in his mind, and he became lost in thought.

At this time, Yu Caidie was also looking at Xiang Shaoyun. When their gazes met, her pupils shrank, and her eyes shone with an indescribable glint. Just like that, the young man and the young woman stared at each other, as if they were the only two people left in the world.

The faces of the other young men turned unsightly. They started wondering inwardly, Do they know each other?

When Granny Wu noticed that something seemed off with Yu Caidie, she looked at Xiang Shaoyun and said, ”Please go to your seat.”

Only then did both Xiang Shaoyun and Yu Caidie wake up from their daze.

Xiang Shaoyun laughed, ”Haha. Ok, I'll take my seat.”

He then walked toward Huo Xudong. However, he had only taken two steps when he turned around and asked, ”May I ask for the Holy Maiden's name?”

Immediately, one of the young men slammed his hand on the table and berated, ”Audacious! What kind of question is that? Apologize to the Holy Maiden, or I'll throw you into the lake!”

This person was none other than Su Jun. He was staring at Xiang Shaoyun furiously, his eyes filled with hostility. Initially, the woman he had liked was Lady Shura. But the moment he laid his eyes on Yu Caidie's peerless beauty, he had completely s.h.i.+fted all his affection to her.

When he saw Xiang Shaoyun asking the beauty such a rude question, he was infuriated. Apart from Su Jun, a large number of the young men there also thought that Xiang Shaoyun's question was rude and improper.

Of course, they were even more jealous of the short moment Xiang Shaoyun had with Yu Caidie when they were staring into each other's eyes. When they had seen that, they started worrying that Xiang Shaoyun might s.n.a.t.c.h the position of son-in-law from them.

Xiang Shaoyun looked at Su Jun and replied with a smile, ”Not even our host has said anything yet. Why are you speaking for her? Do you think you are already her other half?”
