Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Gathering of the Virtuous Tower, third floor.

The area was adorned with bright lights and festive decorations, exuding a joyful atmosphere.

A group of young talents who had come to attend the matchmaking event gathered here without delay.

The banquet featured a wide array of fine wines and delicacies.

Xu Ying led Xiao Yi and the others to the banquet hall and then excused himself, saying, "Lord Xiao, my lords, you wander around the banquet for now. I have some matters to attend to and must leave shortly!"

"Xu Ying, what trick are you up to now?" Little Lin questioned, puzzled.

Xu Ying gave an awkward smile, rubbed his hands, and said, "Just a small matter, small matter!"

Watching Xu Ying slip away quickly, Little Lin looked bewildered and turned to Da Heng: "Da Heng, what's going on?"

Da Heng hesitated for a moment and said, "Erha promised to help Xu Ying pursue a senior sister of his. He's probably going to confess to her now!"

"..."

The crowd was left speechless.

A high disciple from the sacred land of Baiyu actually sought help from a dog to woo a girl?

But thinking of Erha's knack for sweet-talking,

They found it less surprising.

Xiao Yi said, "Forget about them. With Erha around, Xu Ying should have no problem pursuing a girl." After a pause, he continued, "Let's wander around the banquet hall for now and leave early if it gets too dull!"

"Alright!"

The group subsequently entered the banquet hall.

Their arrival immediately drew attention, with the majority of gazes falling on Jin Yi, whispering about, "That's the golden-robed youth who killed the Seven Eccentrics of Mei Lin. His power is terrifying; he's very likely to rank in the top five of Northern Plum City!"

"More than top five, I reckon he can break into the top three, only second to Feng Wuji and Ouyang Wuxiu!"

"Speaking of which... why hasn't Tang Long, who was all the rage and rose to fame earlier, shown up?"

"Tang Long? His cultivation is similar to Feng Wuji and Ouyang Wuxiu, yet he still dared to boast and self-proclaim as one of the Four Youth Supreme Venerables. Likely, he only dared to entertain himself in the small realm of the Ice and Snow Empire, not daring to come to the sacred land of Baiyu to embarrass himself!"

"That's true. If Tang Long dared to come here, just for him claiming the title of Four Youth Supreme Venerables, countless people would want to crush him!"

"Look... that's Ouyang Wuxiu's servant, the ghoul, heading towards that golden-robed youth..."

In the view of everyone,

The stooped, skeletal ghoul walked in front of Xiao Yi and the others. He clasped his hands towards Jin Yi, revealing a yellowed set of teeth as he grinned and said, "Young master, my young master invites you over!"

"Hmm?"

Jin Yi gave him a glance, raising an eyebrow.

This ghoul's cultivation was also at the Peak of Earth Revered Realm, with an aura even deeper and more profound than Hong Tong's.

However...

Such an existence, in his eyes, was just a one-strike foe.

Jin Yi responded indifferently, "Your young master? I don't know him, not seeing him!"

He wasn't here to make friends.

Jin Yi and Little Lin were more curious about how Erha would teach Xu Ying to pursue his senior sister.

Why bother seeing Ouyang Wuxiu?

The ghoul's face stiffened, and a trace of cold darkness flashed in his eyes. He said with a forced smile, "So, young master, you're not planning to give my young master any face?"

Jin Yi was taken aback.

He, being the young master of Beiming Palace, had always conducted himself arrogantly and unrestrainedly, thinking that responding to the ghoul was already courteous enough.

How dare the other party push further?

Jin Yi stopped being polite, darkening his face, "Scram!"

Buzz!

The ghoul trembled all over, forcibly repelled by the surge of energy from Jin Yi's body, retreating several steps. A flush appeared on his sallow face, his gaze uncertain as he glared at Jin Yi, "Alright, alright, sir, if you refuse to give my young master face, don't blame this old man!"

He snorted coldly, turned, and left.

Xiao Yi looked at Jin Yi, puzzled: "What's happening?"

Jin Yi shook his head, explained the situation, and appeared nonchalant: "Don't worry about them. This banquet isn't interesting. Shall we go watch Xu Ying's confession?"

"Yeah, boss, I'm really curious how Erha is going to train Xu Ying..." Little Lin seemed eager.

Xiao Yi surveyed the banquet hall.

He initially thought he'd encounter the so-called three youth supreme, but he had just learned from others' conversations that those three were in the other main city districts.

There was indeed nothing here that caught his attention.

Just as he was about to nod,

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow, smiled and said, "Hold on, someone doesn't want us to leave so early!"

"Hmm?"

The few were stunned.

Saw Ouyang Wuxiu approaching with a stern face, leading the ghoul and dozens of young strong men toward their side.

Ouyang Wuxiu held a folding fan, glaring at Jin Yi with a commanding tone, "I gave you face by inviting you, yet you dared lay your hands on my subordinate, truly not giving me, Ouyang Wuxiu, face! Kneel to the ghoul immediately, apologize, and beg for his forgiveness! Otherwise, I'll have you bleed on the spot..."

"You..."

Jin Yi had just started to speak but was stopped by Xiao Yi.

Being the eldest brother.

When trouble arises, naturally, the younger brother shouldn't step forward.

Xiao Yi watched Ouyang Wuxiu playfully, "You plan to make my brother bleed on the spot? I fear you don't have that skill!"

"Hmm?"

Ouyang Wuxiu was taken aback.

Earlier, he'd only heard that Jin Yi had killed the Seven Eccentrics of Mei Lin in an instant.

He assumed Jin Yi led Xiao Yi's small team.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi emerged halfway through?

Yet...

Seeing Xiao Yi's ordinary energy fluctuations, far less potent than Jin Yi's overwhelming Qi-Blood, he merely assumed Xiao Yi was trying to ingratiate himself with Jin Yi. He sneered, licking his lips with a scarlet tongue, sinisterly said, "It's been a while since anyone dared speak to me like this, ghoul, cripple him for me!"

"Yes!"

The ghoul sinisterly grinned, shrouded in ghostly air, as invisible ghostly aura transformed into hideous skeletons.

Clawing wildly, as if possessed, rushing toward Xiao Yi.

This overwhelming ghostly aura was condensed from the grievances gathered after the ghoul personally poisoned thirty thousand boys and girls.

A power filled with filth and evil.

Once contaminated.

The ghostly aura would invade the body, gnawing at the marrow day and night like maggots, the agony unbearable and difficult to purge.

Ouyang Wuxiu crossed his arms over his chest, sneering continuously, "Ignorant of death, this ghoul's move even I wouldn't dare to oppose easily, you..."

However...

Before the words fell,

upon touching Xiao Yi, the endless ghostly aura shrieked sharply, as if a mouse had seen a cat. Eerie sounds burst from the ghostly air, and within moments, the once-feared ghostly aura turned into white smoke rising upwards.

The ghoul's thousand-year ghostly aura vanished entirely into thin air.

"This, this is impossible..." The ghoul's face turned ashen.

Ouyang Wuxiu's eyes widened: "How did you manage this?"

Swish!

Countless ghostly auras dissipated entirely.

Xiao Yi casually swung his hand, swiftly pinning the ghoul to the ground with a loud thud. The ghoul's body exploded with a boom, leaving no remains, hot blood and flesh scattering onto Ouyang Wuxiu. Xiao Yi watched him playfully, "Aren't you seeking face? I dare to give it, do you dare to take it?"
