Chapter 173: Imperial City Battle 5 (2/2)
“Wait!” Suddenly, Huang Xiaolong’s voice sounded.
Zhao Wuji looked over, a friendlier smile appeared on her face, “Did Young Noble Huang change his mind? You are a smart man.”
But, just as her words ended, Huang Xiaolong threw the golden-colored invitation in his hand back to her, “This, take it with you.”
Catching the invitation in her hand, Zhao Wuji’s expression sank. In the end, she held herself back from saying anything else.
Fei Hou escorted the two ladies out and returned a brief moment later, reporting to Huang Xiaolong of their departure.
“Sovereign, that Heartless Young Noble, would he…?” Fei Hou hesitated.
Huang Xiaolong shook his head, “No need to bother.”
Not to mention what’s-his-name Heartless Young Noble, even if it was Duan Wuhen who were holding a banquet for Huang Xiaolong, he would not go if he did not want to.
Pandering or ingratiating others was something he would not do. Huang Xiaolong was qualified to refuse an invitation from this Heartless Young Noble.
Zhao Shu interjected, “I can only hope Heartless Young Noble has good enough insight. Otherwise, I don’t mind crushing his ‘eggs’ to give him his lifetime’s most memorable lesson!”
Crush his ‘eggs’?
Huang Xiaolong, Yu Ming, and Fei Hou sweated at the thought.
“Fei Hou, investigate details about Heartless Young Noble’s background within the next few days.” Huang Xiaolong’s solemn voice instructed.
“Yes Sovereign!”
At this time, Cui Li and Zhao Wuji arrived at the Unforgettable Intoxication Restaurant, entering private room number two.
Inside private room number two, other than Heartless Young Noble Yao Fei, Yanggang, Pang Yu, and Dai Shanni were seated at the table. Adding Cui Li into the mix, four of the six young geniuses that possessed superb talent martial spirits were gathered together.
When Heartless Young Noble noticed Cui Li and Zhao Wuji return without Huang Xiaolong, his face darkened slightly, “Where’s Huang Xiaolong?” A terrifying pressure enveloped the area, almost solidifying the atmosphere in the room. Yanggang, Pang Yu, and Dai Shanni felt immense pressure, making it hard to breathe.
Cui Li was startled.
But Zhao Wuji ignored the pressure emanated from Heartless Young Noble, letting out a coquettish giggle as she walked to the empty seat next to him and sat down. “That fella surnamed Huang stole everyone’s thunder and doesn’t put you, the famous Heartless Young Noble, in his eyes.”
The underlying meaning was obvious, Huang Xiaolong did not accept his invitation.
A frosty chill spread from Yao Fei, and the temperature in the entire room dropped drastically.
“Did you clearly explain my identity to him?” Yao Fei’s expression seemed unperturbed but his voice was icy.
Zhao Wuji snickered, “I’ve already informed him thoroughly. I even said Old Man Guo must also give you some face, but Huang Xiaolong was not moved at all hearing that. He directly ‘sent’ us off. Before I left, he told me not to forget to take back the invitation!” She took out the golden-colored invitation as if to prove her words.
Yao Fei took the invitation, a spark of gloomy light shone in his eyes as a blue flame suddenly rose from his palm and engulfed the invitation in his hand. The invitation was instantly incinerated into nothingness, not even ashes remained as a clue to its existence.
“This is the first time someone dared to decline my invitation!” Yao Fei remarked coldly.
This time, he had sent out invitations to Yanggang, Pang Yu, Dai Shanni, Cui Li, and Huang Xiaolong. A total of five people. Huang Xiaolong was the only one to refuse. This caused him to lose a lot of face in front of Yanggang, Pang Yu, and the rest.
Xie Puti was a member of Duanren Imperial City’s Xie Family, and like the Yao Family, the Xie Family was one of Duanren Empire’s super families.
Therefore, Yao Fei did not invite Xie Puti.
