Chapter 1629: Refusing a Beauty’s Intentions
“Fairy Bijun has invited you twice. If brother Long still refuses to give this little face, it really would be rude.” Di Xin, who hadn’t said anything this entire time, suddenly opened his mouth.
Di Xin’s voice contained a special magnetism. Combined with his handsome face, each of his movements made people form a good opinion of him.
“Since you put it like that, then if I refused, it wouldn’t be good.” Long Chen smiled ever so slightly and pulled Cloud over to the island.
Ignoring what goal Shen Bijun had, by helping Long Chen resolve w.a.n.g Hai, she had made it so it would be unreasonable for him to just leave.
“Tch, how arrogant.” Seeing Long Chen only accept the invitation after Shen Bijun had repeatedly invited him irritated the others very much.
Shen Bijun was one of the Illusive Music Immortal Palace’s ‘Dual Fairies’. She was on the same level of fame as Zi Yan, and they were known as two remarkable and beautiful sisters.
Not only was she a terrifying Empyrean, but she was so skilled in the Music Dao that she used it to peer into the heavens and become closer to the Heavenly Daos. Even Di Xin deeply respected her.
That was why each time Shen Bijun played a song, countless experts would flock toward her like ducks, afraid of missing a single note, which was equivalent to missing a chance to increase their level of insight.
It was up to Shen Bijun’s mood when she would play her music. Otherwise, even if it was to give Di Xin face, she wouldn’t play. In their eyes, Shen Bijun was so arrogant that it seemed that she didn’t want to speak to anyone outside of Di Xin.
However, no one felt angry due to her arrogance. They felt it was simply the manner an expert should possess. Of everyone here, only Di Xin was qualified to get close to Shen Bijun. Everyone else could only look at her from a distance.
Now, Long Chen, an outsider, had only just arrived and somehow won over Shen Bijun’s affection. Furthermore, her affectionate expression toward him wasn’t concealed at all, causing everyone to be jealous.
That was why someone immediately said that Long Chen was too arrogant. Although he had said it quietly, everyone here was an expert and could hear it. That person had clearly said it on purpose.
Long Chen ignored that person as he walked over with Cloud. Cloud was intimately holding his arm. She was very cute, with the energy of a Xuan Beast. Her looks wouldn’t lose out much to Shen Bijun.
This made others even more jealous. When Long Chen and Cloud arrived in front of Shen Bijun and Di Xin, Shen Bijun bowed slightly, seeming excited.
“I’ve long since heard of young master Long Chen’s great name. It truly is a blessing of three lifetimes to be able to see you today. I hope you won’t mind my rudeness in inviting you over.”
“There was no such thing. I am just a coa.r.s.e fighter, so I hope I don’t do anything to make you laugh at me.” Long Chen cupped his fists, which could count as returning her greeting.
“I’ve long since heard that you are extremely talented and skilled in the Music Dao. Both in the Eastern Wasteland and the Grand Xia Ancient Nation, you said some stunning words that made me admire you. I have always hoped to be able to see you since that time so that I could receive pointers from you. I didn’t expect to have such luck that we could meet today. I hope you can give me some pointers,” said Shen Bijun excitedly. Her voice was even trembling a bit from her excitement.
The air was filled with jealousy. Practically, everyone was glaring at Long Chen with killer eyes.
As for Di Xin, although he looked indifferent on the surface and he was even faintly smiling, his gaze had changed.
He came from the Central Xuan Region. That was where heavenly geniuses of the entire Martial Heaven Continent gathered. He usually looked down on the experts from the other four regions.
However, the Jade Lake Pageant had something that he needed, and it just so happened he was qualified to enter, so he had come.
As soon as he had come, he had encountered a woman with shocking talent. Furthermore, she was like a fairy that had transcended the mortal world. Such a woman shouldn’t even exist in this world.
Just as he struck up a conversation with her, he saw another two shockingly beautiful women. Although in terms of appearance they were ever so slightly lacking to the first woman, they were still unbelievably beautiful. They were Meng Qi, Chu Yao, and Tang Wan-er.
At that time, Di Xin had expressed his affection for Meng Qi, but unexpectedly, before Meng Qi even replied, Tang Wan-er had directly told him not to get any wild ideas because they already had a husband.
At that time, he had been shocked and angered, especially when he learned that this husband was the one who had caused a storm in the Eastern Xuan Region, Long Chen. Unable to hold back, he had said a few mocking words about him.
As a result, he had infuriated the three of them. After scolding him with a few words, they left and stayed within the palace the entire time, not wanting to see him again.
Then Shen Bijun came. Although her beauty was a bit inferior to the three of them, because she cultivated the Music Dao, she had a special kind of charm and elegance to her.
Furthermore, she had stunning accomplishments on the Music Dao. Di Xin decided to be friendly with her. The two of them had talked, and their relations.h.i.+p had become quite good, almost intimately so.
However, as soon as Long Chen arrived, he was tossed to the side. The only one in Shen Bijun’s eyes was Long Chen. That made Di Xin’s anger slowly rise.
