Chapter 2411: Bibo Lake Heavenly Pride Banquet, Farewell Li Xianyao

Lai Chengtian said this with extreme confidence in his tone.

Moreover, there was no lack of a boastful element in it.

After all, as long as one is a man, most want to show off in front of beautiful women.

Even someone like Lai Chengtian cannot escape this common tendency.

Li Xianyao heard this, yet remained unmoved.

She thought of Jun Xiaoyao, who alone had topped several Divine Stele Rankings.

Compared to that, Lai Chengtian's name on a few Divine Steles amounted to nothing.

Thinking this, Li Xianyao's heart once again filled with longing for Jun Xiaoyao.

"If only I could see him soon..."

Li Xianyao silently thought to herself.

Seeing Li Xianyao's calm and indifferent demeanor,

Lai Chengtian's expression showed a slight stiffness.

As the number one evildoer of the Li tribe, does he really have no face to lose?

In the past, who knows how many women have admired him.

Li Xianyao, however, remained unmoved, and didn't even pay attention.

"Alright, the Heavenly Pride Banquet is about to begin, let's go." Lai Chengtian said.

Li Xianyao directly left.

Watching Li Xianyao's departing figure, Lai Chengtian's eyes flickered with changing emotions.

"Indeed, she is a peerless beauty, but it's a pity."

"Her fate is to marry the future Heavenly Emperor's heir and become the Heavenly Empress..."

Lai Chengtian shook his head silently.

Although even he felt his heart stir for Li Xianyao.

But he also knew Li Xianyao's destined fate.

That is to become the Heavenly Empress.

This is the plan laid out by the Li Sage.

If they can establish a connection with the Heavenly Emperor's heir, the prestige of the Li tribe will also surge accordingly, rising with the tide.

And Li Xianyao is merely a tool.

The venue of the Heavenly Pride Banquet is in Li Tiancheng, at a place called Bibo Lake.

At a glance, the blue waves stretch endlessly, gently rippling with the wind, spiritual energy rising.

By the lakeside, there are many pavilions and towers, now set with banquet tables, already gathering many heavenly prides.

All are prominent heavenly prides from various powers in the Hunxu Star Realm.

Some are holy sons of great sects, some are princes and princesses of dynasties, some are young masters of ancient families.

Those invited by the Li tribe are none other than extraordinary figures.

At this moment, at one banquet table, Jun Xiaoyao sat calmly.

Beside him, Su Qian was pouring tea for him.

There were no other heavenly prides around them.

Because Jun Xiaoyao prefers tranquility, Su Qian directly had people clear the surroundings.

With her status as a Daoist maiden of the Paragon Dao Palace, it was natural for her to occupy a seat alone without issue.

Meanwhile, farther away, many gazes were fixed on Jun Xiaoyao's side, filled with astonishment.

"Who is that person, able to make the Daoist maiden of the Paragon Dao Palace pour tea and water?"

Many people were astonished.

They looked at Jun Xiaoyao, and even couldn't see him clearly, as if a layer of illusory immortal mist swirled around him.

Appearing extraordinarily mysterious.

Although Jun Xiaoyao's fame radiates outward from the Origin Academy,

it has not yet reached the level of shocking the ten major star realms.

Only some well-informed powers know a bit of news about him.

At this moment, a group of figures flew through the sky from afar.

"The Li tribe has arrived."

"Is that Lai Chengtian? Indeed, he bears the heroic bearing of a dragon and phoenix among men."

"Eh, that woman is..."

Many people also noticed Li Xianyao.

The gazes of many men present became even more fixed.

And Jun Xiaoyao, who had been sitting at the banquet drinking tea, sensed something.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he lightly sipped the tea in his cup.

"Thank you all for coming to attend the Heavenly Pride Banquet."

Lai Chengtian and his entourage descended upon Bibo Lake.

"Where, where, Lai Brother, you're too polite."

"Yes, congratulations on Lai Brother breaking through seclusion; in the future, Lai Brother's name will surely rise another level."

"I see on the Origin Golden Ranking, Lai Brother will absolutely be among the top."

Li Chengtian descended upon this place, and all the Heaven's Chosen present at the banquet rose to their feet, raising their cups toward Li Chengtian.

After all, Li Chengtian — whether in talent, strength, or status — was utterly flawless.

A qilin pattern marked his brow, and he bore the Heavenly Diagram upon his back; he was even regarded as one who carried the Mandate of Heaven, a man heavily favored by the heavens.

Yet in the hall, only two figures remained seated, neither rising nor raising a cup.

Naturally, they were Jun Xiaoyao and Su Qian.

Jun Xiaoyao held a teacup, sipping leisurely.

And Su Qian, she originally should have gestured as well.

But seeing Jun Xiaoyao make no move, she too tacitly did not rise.

"Hm?"

Li Chengtian's gaze swept over.

At this moment, to one side, Li Xianyao's jade body had long since frozen stiff, as if solidified.

Only a pair of clear, limpid eyes stared fixedly at that white-robed Young Master sipping tea so leisurely.

At the corner of her eye, a crystalline tear slipped down, beyond her control.

It really is him, really is that person.

Although after Li Xianyao came to the Origin Universe, hearing the news of Jun Xiaoyao's appearance was also extremely shocking and inconceivable.

After all, she had personally witnessed Jun Xiaoyao sealed within the curse-pattern light cocoon of the Severing Immortal Curse, nearly entering extinction.

How could it be possible that the same he would appear, and moreover with a Chaos Body completely different from the Innate Holy Body Dao Embryo?

But.

Now, at the moment of seeing that white-robed figure.

Li Xianyao, completely and utterly, understood.

It is Jun Xiaoyao, without the slightest mistake.

And at this time, Jun Xiaoyao also rose, looking toward Li Xianyao.

"Xianyao, long time no see."

Not the slightest hesitation.

Almost in an instant, Li Xianyao threw herself into Jun Xiaoyao's embrace.

What reserve, what scruples — at this moment none of it fell within her consideration.

When Dongfang Aoyue thrust that sword at her.

It was Jun Xiaoyao who stood before her.

When she learned the cruel truth of her origins.

It was Jun Xiaoyao who comforted her, giving her an arm to lean on.

What mission, what Heavenly Empress destiny.

At the moment of seeing Jun Xiaoyao, all were tossed beyond the Ninth Heaven.

She merely missed this person, missed him dearly, simply that.

Feeling that body throwing itself into his embrace, soft and delicate.

Jun Xiaoyao also gently encircled her, a smile on his face.

But at this moment, everyone present was dumbstruck.

Li Xinghe, Li Peiyu were dumbstruck.

Even Li Chengtian's expression froze slightly, an indescribable look.

And that Li Heng, as if he had seen a ghost, his face turned pale in a flash, to the utmost extreme.

Even his legs went weak, nearly kneeling down.

This was an instinctive reaction.

"Yunxiao, how could it really be him?!"

Li Heng's voice trembled.

Before, when hearing that Jun Xiaoyao had been struck by the E Clan's Severing Immortal Curse.

Li Heng was beyond pleased, feeling extremely gratified, as if he had personally avenged himself.

And later, upon arriving at the Origin Universe, he also heard of the matter of Jun Xiaoyao at the Origin Academy.

But he never believed it.

After all, this was too absurd.

Until this moment, no matter how unwilling Li Heng was to believe, he had no choice but to face reality.

Jun Xiaoyao, still alive and well.

Not only that, but he even possessed a monstrous Chaos Divine Body.

Li Heng's brain couldn't keep up; he simply didn't know how a monster like Jun Xiaoyao cultivated.

Just how many unknown secrets does he still hide?
