Chapter 2428 - Li Chengtian's Frustration: His Momentum Building Becomes a Joke

At this moment, the entire bank of Bi-Bo Lake was plunged into silence.

Many Prodigies present were rendered speechless upon seeing this scene.

They were well aware that this woman in white possessed an absolutely extraordinary status.

After all, when she arrived, she had walked at the very front, just like Li Chengtian.

Furthermore, she was so graceful and elegant, as if she were an immortal.

They all knew that Li Xianyao was undoubtedly a proud daughter of heaven.

But what about now?

This proud daughter of heaven had actually thrown herself directly into a man's arms.

It was so sudden that many people had not yet reacted.

Li Chengtian watched this scene, his expression darkening.

Although he was attracted to Li Xianyao.

He also knew that Li Xianyao would one day become the Dao Companion of the Successor of the Heavenly Emperor, and no one else could have her.

Therefore, he felt somewhat balanced in his heart.

But now, seeing Li Xianyao throw herself directly into another man's arms.

Li Chengtian's heart was instantly thrown into disarray.

If he couldn't have her, by what right could anyone else?

Over there, Li Xianyao rose from Jun Xiaoyao's arms, and the face beneath her veil was already flushed with a seductive crimson hue.

"Xianyao, many things have happened in the meantime; I will tell you later," said Jun Xiaoyao.

"Mn," Li Xianyao nodded slightly.

As long as it was him, nothing else mattered.

Li Xianyao rarely felt happy.

Especially after learning of her own origins.

But at this very moment, she was very happy.

"Your Excellency seems somewhat unfamiliar; I do not recall the Li Clan ever inviting you."

A cold, indifferent voice came from Li Chengtian.

His gaze was like two golden swords, piercing directly at Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained calm and unruffled as he said, "I did not come to attend the Prodigy Banquet; I merely came to see someone."

"Even if the Li Clan had invited me, I might not have come."

"What arrogance!"

Li Chengtian's eyes narrowed sharply.

To say such things on the Li Clan's territory was indeed too arrogant.

"Elder Brother Chengtian, he is that Chaos Body from the Yun Sheng Imperial Palace..."

At this moment, Li Xinghe stepped forward and said, his expression not looking too good.

He had not expected this person to have actually come to the Li Clan.

"It's him?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chengtian's expression shifted slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Li, Yun Xiao is the Imperial Son of the Yun Sheng Imperial Palace, and he was brought here by Su Qian."

Daoist Maiden Su Qian also spoke up.

At this, the entire venue erupted as if a pot had boiled over.

"Is he that Chaos Body?"

"The existence who made The Two Elders of Mountain and Sea from the Yun Sheng Imperial Palace come out of seclusion personally to welcome him!"

"No wonder he has such confidence to speak to Li Chengtian like that."

"I understand now; no wonder that woman threw herself into his arms. If it were me, I would be willing too."

A single stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Upon learning Jun Xiaoyao's identity, the entire venue instantly exploded.

This was because Jun Xiaoyao was far too special.

The Imperial Son of the Earth Lineage of the Yun Sheng Imperial Palace, combined with a Chaos Body that could sweep across the ages.

Such a figure was destined to be extraordinary.

"No wonder Daoist Maiden Su Qian was pouring tea on the side; sigh, I missed an opportunity!"

Many people realized that with Su Qian's status, how could she possibly pour tea and water for others like a maid?

Some Saintesses of great sects and princesses of Imperial Dynasties were even more regretful that they hadn't shamelessly tried to get close to him.

At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao became the most eye-catching existence in the entire venue.

And Li Chengtian, who should have been the protagonist and the focus of all eyes, appeared somewhat dim by comparison.

Li Chengtian's eyes were as gloomy as water.

This Prodigy Banquet was supposed to be the stage for his emergence after breaking his seal.

But now, not only had his glory been stolen, but even Li Xianyao was clinging to Jun Xiaoyao.

Li Chengtian's gaze shifted, and as if thinking of something, he suddenly said, "Miss Xianyao is a member of my Li Clan and also the Young High Priestess of the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion."

"In the future, she is destined to be the woman of the Successor of the Heavenly Emperor."

"Your Excellency should give up on that idea."

He indeed could not have Li Xianyao.

But he could use the prestige of the Successor of the Heavenly Emperor to pressure Jun Xiaoyao.

Although Jun Xiaoyao's status was extraordinary.

But how could the Successor of the Heavenly Emperor be simple?

If he were to emerge, he would definitely make all sides submit and worship.

Jun Xiaoyao heard this and wore a cold sneer on his face.

He picked up the teacup on the table.

In the next moment, the Void Realm rippled, and runes appeared in sheets.

The teacup appeared before Li Chengtian with lightning speed.

It smashed directly towards his head!

Even with Li Chengtian's cultivation, he found it difficult to react in time.

Because it was too sudden.

He unleashed his aura, wanting to shake it away directly.

But the teacup emitted a ripple of space, bypassing his aura.

This was not just a cup of tea; it was infused with the intent of space, and even the intent of Chaos.

Bang!

The next moment, the teacup smashed heavily onto Li Chengtian's face.

Because it contained the intent of Chaos, its power was not weak.

The shattered fragments directly sliced open Li Chengtian's cheek, and blood splattered.

Although it didn't disfigure him, he looked very disheveled.

Li Chengtian stumbled back a few steps, immediately exploding with energy, the Qilin mark on his forehead flashing and emitting a terrifying aura.

His eyes surged with coldness as he stared fixedly at Jun Xiaoyao.

"You...!"

The entire venue was silent!

No one had expected to see this scene.

This Li Clan Prodigy Banquet could be said to have been held specifically to create momentum for Li Chengtian.

But now, Li Chengtian had actually been smashed in the head with a teacup by someone, looking utterly disheveled.

"Stop trying to use others' prestige to intimidate me."

"If the Successor of the Heavenly Emperor provokes me, he too must kneel."

Jun Xiaoyao's expression was indifferent.

Li Chengtian's aura surged within his body; the Qilin mark on his forehead contained divine brilliance, and a terrifying pressure was faintly emanating.

Having suffered such a big loss, logically, he should have tried to reclaim his dignity.

But just now, this simple move by Jun Xiaoyao had revealed his extraordinary nature.

The prestige of the Chaos Body was not an empty name.

Prodigies like Li Chengtian had absolute confidence in themselves.

But he had no certainty in dealing with Jun Xiaoyao.

If he made another fool of himself, Li Chengtian's reputation would become even more of a joke.

Seeing Li Chengtian holding back and not retaliating.

Jun Xiaoyao shook his head inwardly.

He had thought this top Prodigy of the Li Clan had some real ability.

It seems he was just like this; he didn't even have an absolutely invincible Dao Heart.

However, in other words, Jun Xiaoyao also believed that Li Chengtian's choice was correct.

If he hadn't been able to hold back and attacked, he would only have ended up even more disheveled.

"Xianyao, this Prodigy Banquet is meaningless; let's go."

Jun Xiaoyao looked at Li Xianyao and said.

Li Xianyao nodded; she only wanted to be with Jun Xiaoyao and talk right now.

Su Qian also left with them.

Seeing this, some of the other Prodigies coughed and said.

"Ahem, Brother Li, I suddenly remembered that there are some matters in my clan, so I will take my leave for now."

"Brother Li, the clan elders are calling me back, so I will leave first."

"Brother Li, I suddenly remembered that the old sow at home seems to be about to give birth, so I will leave first."

Many of the Prodigies present cupped their hands and left one after another.

The reason they left was naturally that they wanted to follow Jun Xiaoyao to see if they could establish some kind of connection.

Seeing the sparsely populated Prodigy Banquet.

Li Chengtian finally couldn't hold back and let out a sharp shout, his aura erupting!

Boom!

The entire bank of Bi-Bo Lake exploded, and the lake water splashed into the sky!
