Chapter 17 Dragon Gate Banquet

When the lantern was in hand, countless lights were lit in the Ji Mansion.

Ji Tianxing put on a black suit and walked out of the Ji residence holding the blood dragon sword.

The servants had already prepared two carriages, and Ji Hao was already waiting at the gate of Ji Mansion.

The two set foot on their respective carriages and rushed to the Lingyan Palace one after the other.

Lingyan Palace is located in Dongcheng District. It is the most proud and luxurious palace of the little prince Ji Ling.

This palace covers an area of ​​nearly 2,000 acres, including more than a dozen resplendent palaces, nine spacious courtyards, and several gardens.

Apart from the imperial palace, Lingyan Palace was the most splendid official residence in the imperial city.

Outside the gate of the palace, is the Qingyun River that flows through the imperial city to the outside of the city.

The river surface is about eight feet wide, the water is clear but not turbulent, and there are many brightly colored petals floating on the water surface.

When Ji Tianxing arrived at Lingyan Palace, dozens of carriages were already parked on the roadside.

He glanced at the carriages on the side of the road by the lights at the gate of Lingyan Palace, and saw the emblems on the carriages, most of which were powerful clans in the imperial city.

Many young talents got off the carriage and greeted each other after meeting each other. In groups of three or five, they set foot on Qingyun Bridge and entered the gate of Lingyan Palace.

Ji Hao got off the carriage, ignoring the greetings of other young talents, and hurried to Ji Tianxing's side.

"Brother, let's go in."

Ji Tianxing nodded silently, then stepped onto the ten-zhang Qingyun Stone Bridge and walked towards the gate of Lingyan Palace.

A row of about a hundred red lanterns hung above the gate, emitting a pale red light, dispelling the darkness around them.

The black armored guards at the door were as motionless as stone sculptures, exuding an icy chill.

A fat middle-aged man who looks like a housekeeper checks the invitations of the guests with an expressionless face.

Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao came to the gate and stood in front of the middle-aged fat man.

Ji Hao quickly took out the invitation and handed it over with a smile.

The middle-aged fat man glanced at the invitation, his eyes fell on Ji Tianxing, and asked indifferently, "Where is your invitation?"

Ji Tianxing frowned and was about to speak when Ji Hao spoke first and explained with a smile, "Mr. Wang, this is my eldest brother, the eldest young master of the Ji family, do you still need an invitation?"

Manager Wang's expression suddenly became playful, and he said in a teasing tone: "Haha, the young prince has invited the young master Ji to a banquet several times, but the genius Ji has no regard for the young prince's Dragon Gate banquet."

"Today, the genius of Ji Da has become a waste of Ji Da, but he came to the Dragon Gate Banquet with a shy face... It's ridiculous!"

A few young talents near the gate, when they heard the yin and yang of Director Wang's strange words, seemed to be beaten with chicken blood, and immediately surrounded them with excitement.

Ji Tianxing's expression changed, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Snapped!"

He didn't say a word, but he slapped Director Wang's face with a slap in the face.

Manager Wang was staggered, his body was shaking, and he almost fell to the ground.

He covered his flushed and swollen cheeks and stared at Ji Tianxing stubbornly, yet he didn't come back to his senses.

He had the strength of the eighth level of body refining, but he didn't see how Ji Tianxing made his move.

Moreover, he couldn't believe how Ji Tianxing, who had become a waste and a laughing stock, dared to slap him in public?

The few young talents who were watching were also dumbfounded and couldn't believe it was true.

Manager Wang came back to his senses, and suddenly roared in exasperation.

"Ji Tianxing! You are so bold, how dare you hit me?"

Ji Tianxing looked at him expressionlessly, and said indifferently, "So what?"

Manager Wang immediately got stuck, trembling with anger, but couldn't speak.

It is true that he is the general manager of Lingyan Palace, the big dog-leg next to the little prince, it is okay to bully ordinary powerful people at will.

But Ji Tianxing is the eldest young master of the Ji family, one of the four great aristocratic families, how could the young prince turn against the Ji family for him?

Manager Wang lost his temper, so he could only stare at Ji Tianxing fiercely, greeting his ancestors for the eighteenth generation in his heart.

Ji Tianxing withdrew his gaze and stepped into the gate of Lingyan Palace with a blank expression.

Ji Hao followed closely, and when he passed by Director Wang, he still gave him a look of contempt.

As for the reason for the contempt, I am afraid only he himself knows.

After entering Lingyan Palace, there is a broad avenue paved with marble in front of you.

At the end of the avenue is the Qingyun Hall, the venue for the Dragon Gate Banquet tonight.

The Qingyun Hall was brightly lit, the middle area was empty, and there were hundreds of low wooden tables in the surrounding area against the wall.

There are several plates of fruit, a pot of fine wine and a few plates of snacks on the low table of red lacquered solid wood.

When Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao stepped into the main hall, they saw that there were more than 30 young talents sitting in the hall.

Familiar people sat next to each other, whispering a few words from time to time, showing a knowing smile.

There are also some lonely young people or girls, kneeling silently behind the table, looking dull and restrained.

Ji Tianxing knew that most of those young geniuses came from the folk, and they were still very unfamiliar with the imperial city dignitaries and the Lingyan Palace.

But the thirty or so young talents were all sitting in the corners far from the main seat.

After all, their status and strength are not enough to sit on the top.

The main seat in the north of the main hall, as well as the upper seats on both sides, are empty, which are the positions of the young prince Ji Ling and the top geniuses.

The seats at the Dragon Gate Banquet are not casual.

Just as Ji Tianxing stepped into the main hall, the originally bustling main hall suddenly became quiet.

Everyone turned their heads in unison to look at the gate, and their eyes were fixed on Ji Tianxing.

In an instant, everyone's expressions changed.

Some were surprised, some were stunned, some were contemptuous, and some showed schadenfreude expressions.

There were even some powerful disciples who whispered with a sneer on their faces.

Everyone knows that there must be a good show to watch at the Dragon Gate Banquet tonight.

Moreover, it is a wonderful drama that is rare to see in a hundred years.

Once the first genius of the imperial city, the most outstanding man of the Qingyun Kingdom, now he has been reduced to the third-level waste of body refinement, and the Ling family has broken out of the marriage contract, making him the laughing stock of the people all over the world.

When he was in high spirits and famous for a while, he didn't bother to attend the Dragon Gate Banquet of the little prince, but tonight he came for the first time.

The young talents in the hall couldn't wait to see how Ji Tianxing was humiliated and humiliated by everyone tonight!

However, Ji Tianxing was flattered and humiliated, completely ignoring everyone's reaction.

He stepped into the hall with a blank face, and led Ji Hao through the crowd, walked to the corner of the hall, and sat down at a random table.

After he was seated, he closed his eyes and rested in the arms of the Blood Dragon Sword, showing an indifferent attitude.

He turned a deaf ear to everyone's whispers and chuckles, and seemed to be indifferent to everything.
