C1003 (1/2)

Within the palace.

Ji Guyun's enthusiasm helped to dissolve the awkward atmosphere.

Being able to disregard the small details and be on the same generation as Ye Xiong and the Sword Saint made Ye Xiong and the Sword Saint feel flattered. They drank and chatted happily, and instead, they got along very well.

Emperor Huang and Nie Hun were clearly embarrassed, they all shook their heads and laughed bitterly, and could only drink, listening to Ji Guyun and the rest talking and laughing.

Ye Ling and Xia Huai drank the wine alone, as though they were being ignored.

As for Ji Yuerong, she sat in front of her father, Ji Guyun, with her eyes wide open, staring straight at Ye Ling.

In fact, when she found out about Ye Ling's identity and background, she found it strange that Ye Ling was actually such an unforgivable scoundrel!

”My two brothers, are you here to help me seal the Ancient God this time?”

After eating his fill, Ji Guyun was the first to break the silence. He immediately returned to the main topic at hand, and brought up the matter of the seal.

Hearing Ji Guyun's words, Ye Xiong and the Sword Saint were surprised. They looked at Ji Guyun and then turned to look at Ye Ling.

Ye Ling ignored them and continued drinking alone, making it difficult for Sword Saint and Ye Xiong, because the ones who were taking the initiative were Ye Ling and had nothing to do with them.

Xia Huai had a strange expression. Looking at Ye Ling who looked as if nothing had happened, he couldn't really speak, so he could only remain silent.

When Ji Guyun, who was standing in the middle of the hall, saw Ye Xiong and the rest's current state, he could guess that all of these would depend on Ye Ling's opinion.

”Scoundrel!”

”Didn't you take the initiative to ask for it?”

”Why are you pretending to be deaf and mute right now? Could it be that you came here to watch a joke?”

Ji Yuerong, who was sitting on top of the palace, saw that the few people in the palace were all waiting for her to reply, but Ye Ling actually pretended to ignore her, fiercely biting her lips, and questioned Ye Ling loudly.

She remembered clearly that she was the one who had come for Ye Ling and now she wanted to watch without doing anything, how could there be such a cheap thing in the world?

Hearing Ji Yuehong's sudden anger, Ji Guyun, who was sitting at the side, was surprised. His daughter had always been docile and obedient, but now she was so angry from embarrassment?

They clearly remembered that Ji Yuerong had obstructed Ye Ling from coming to Heavenly Moon Palace in a myriad of ways, and now she was even taking the initiative to question Ye Ling?

In the face of Ji QI, Ye Ling looked at Ji Yuerong with disdain, and then unhurriedly poured himself a cup with the wine pot.

”I'm just a nobody. You're just a scoundrel, why do you need to ask me about it?”

Ye Ling raised his wine cup and unenthusiastically said those words, but he expressed his great dissatisfaction with Ji Guyun and Ji Yuerong. After that, he drank it all in one go and did not speak any further.

”You …!”

When Ji Yuerong heard Ye Ling's careless words, she actually felt extremely angry.

When Ye Xiong and the others heard it, they could only bitterly smile and shake their heads. Ye Ling knew that they were clearly trying to reason with him, and from the looks of it, he was not satisfied with them.

Ji Guyun, who was sitting at the top of the hall, shook his head and laughed. Seeing how petty Ye Ling was, he actually felt it was funny.

”Little friend Ye Ling, don't tell me you're going to lose your temper with this old man?”

”We can be considered friends if we don't fight. I also thank you for letting me taste defeat. How about I toast this cup of wine to you?”

Ji Guyun looked down at Ye Ling with a smile, picked up the wine cup on the table, and raised his cup in's direction.

He, Ji Guyun, only respected the strong. There were very few who could fight against him, but the number of people who could defeat him could be counted on one hand.

But today, Ye Ling had completely defeated him, and he had neglected and ignored Ye Ling previously, simply to avoid embarrassment.

”I can't accept this wine.”

”Senior, let's just say that how do we re-seal the origin of this Ancient Era's Divine Spirit?”

Seeing Ji Guyun toast, Ye Ling shook his head instead and did not accept it.

With Ji Guyun's seniority, how could he accept it at his age?

He, Ye Ling, did not want to lose his lifespan, so he changed the topic to avoid being unreasonable. He, Ye Ling, did not want to be ridiculed by others because of this.

”Ha ha!”

Seeing that Ye Ling did not accept, Ji Guyun was not angry. Instead, he smiled and nodded, ”Alright, since little friend is a straightforward person, then this old man will stop talking nonsense.”

”Humph!” ”He pretends to be arrogant and doesn't know how to appreciate favors. Just by looking at him, one can tell that he isn't a good person!”
