The surrounding demons noticed something was wrong, and all looked at it with suspicion and alarm.
How could this Beast be so unable to distinguish between what was important and what was not?
Usually, it relied on its profound cultivation and looked down on Immortal Lord Guanlan's pretty-boy behavior, and that was one thing.
But now, in the presence of the Little Palace Mistress, it still dared to maintain such an attitude.
This was not just slapping Immortal Lord Guanlan's face.
This was clearly slapping the Little Palace Mistress's face, slapping the face of the entire Southern Immortal Palace.
The atmosphere at the banquet instantly turned cold.
Immortal Lord Guanlan's face turned ashen, and a murderous intent flickered in his eyes.
He was just about to erupt.
The veiled woman beside him merely frowned slightly: "Forget it... it wasn't a grand banquet to begin with, there aren't that many rules."
Hearing this.
The surrounding tense demons felt as if they had received a great pardon, letting out sighs of relief and returning to their seats.
Immortal Lord Guanlan had no choice but to resentfully withdraw his gaze.
But in his heart, he felt indignant.
A woman after all...
Even with the Southern Immortal Palace backing her, even if her face was stepped on, she didn't dare to lash out.
If it were him in that position... who would dare to be so insolent?
But at that moment.
"Pfft—"
A highly inappropriate sneer came from the wide mouth of that Catfish Demon.
It casually slammed a half-eaten Beast leg onto the table.
The impact overturned the wine jar, and wine spilled everywhere.
"Bringing out this kind of trash... you dare invite us here to celebrate your birthday?"
The carp demon general serving on the side had a bitter expression.
Today, the people from the Jieqing Sect were sitting at the main table.
On such an occasion, even with ten times the courage, how would they dare to actually serve Human Cultivators as dishes?
But against such a great demon of the Chess Player Realm, a small demon general like it absolutely could not afford to offend.
It could only bow, offering an apologetic smile and seeking forgiveness.
"Immortal Lord, please appease your anger. Today is a special situation, and we really couldn't prepare that kind of fresh food. We hope the Immortal Lord will be magnanimous..."
The Catfish Demon couldn't be bothered to pay attention to this minor demon.
It suddenly straightened its body.
Its turbid and ferocious gaze bypassed the many tables and cast directly toward the outer courtyard.
It swept wantonly over those trembling Human Cultivators.
Suddenly.
Its gaze froze slightly.
It paused on a certain figure in a corner of the side seats.
The Catfish Demon grinned, revealing a mouth full of uneven fangs, and said indifferently: "You, come over here to this Lord."
"..."
Everyone followed that ferocious gaze.
In the very last corner of the side seats.
A Girl in Black Robes was propping her chin with one hand, while the other held a white jade teacup.
Her posture was extremely casual.
Sensing the surrounding atmosphere and the gazes projected toward her.
The teacup at her lips stopped, and the girl looked back in confusion at the hall full of eyes.
Uncle Xun and Xu Linmiao, who were sitting beside her, turned deathly pale in an instant.
The old and the young stood up abruptly.
"This... this is not allowed..."
But their voices sounded exceptionally helpless in the dead silence of the hall.
Immortal Lord Guanlan's face twitched violently, and he stood up abruptly, walking quickly to the side of the Catfish Demon.
Today, the people from the Jieqing Sect were present.
Although he didn't know what the Jieqing Sect was planning this time, he certainly didn't dare to let this group of demons under him be so unscrupulous at the birthday banquet.
With this thought.
Immortal Lord Guanlan reached out and grabbed Black Water Immortal Lord's thick neck, attempting to twist his head back.
"Black Water Immortal Lord..."
Immortal Lord Guanlan lowered his voice, forcing a smile.
"Today is my birthday banquet after all, why seek trouble at a time like this?"
"If you really crave a bite of fresh blood food, after the banquet is over, I will personally pick a few good ones and send them to your manor next time..."
Black Water Immortal Lord didn't budge.
He turned his head indifferently, looked at Immortal Lord Guanlan who was close at hand, and a cold smile curled on his lips.
"I told her to come over, what does it have to do with you? What... are you going to turn traitor?!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Immortal Lord Guanlan's face instantly turned bright red.
He indeed intended to use this opportunity to connect with the Jieqing Sect, but under the watchful eyes of everyone and all the demons in the hall, how would he dare to openly admit that he wanted to stand up for a human?
In a dilemma.
Immortal Lord Guanlan appeared extremely embarrassed and had no choice but to cast a pleading gaze toward the veiled woman at the main table.
Noticing Immortal Lord Guanlan's gaze, the woman indifferently lowered her eyes and said softly: "Here is none of your business... come back and sit down."
Although the voice was gentle, there was no room for negotiation.
"..."
Immortal Lord Guanlan's body stiffened, his outstretched arm fell dejectedly, and he could only retreat to his original position in disgrace.
The veiled woman picked up the wine cup on the table, took a shallow sip, and looked provocatively at the three green figures.
In her heart, she naturally felt some disgust toward this crude Catfish Demon.
But she also couldn't stand the Jieqing Sect, one of the Nine Great Dao Sects.
Even more so, she couldn't stand that this carp had clearly relied on her to connect with the Southern Immortal Palace to gain the prestige and strength to call the shots in the Great Marsh today.
Now that its wings were fully grown, it thought about playing both sides, even wanting to use the Jieqing Sect's influence to escape the Southern Immortal Palace's control.
What?
Thinking of biting the hand that feeds you?
Beneath the veil, a mocking sneer curled on the woman's lips.
In the hands of her, Fairy Bihai.
No one had ever been able to play out a scene of overturning the natural order...
The group of Human Cultivators had strange expressions.
Their gazes bypassed the many tables, all looking expectantly at the three green figures at the main table.
However.
Under everyone's gaze.
The three figures sat in their original places, and not one of them intended to stand up.
The expectancy in everyone's eyes gradually faded, and they lowered their eyes in disappointment.
Sensing the gazes from the outer courtyard.
Tang Wanyin clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves.
She suddenly straightened her back, just about to slam the table and stand up.
A hand reached out and firmly grabbed her arm.
Tang Wanyin turned her head in anger, looking at her Senior Brother.
In this kind of situation... if the Jieqing Sect could even endure this, what kind of human Dao Sect would they be?
They might as well be called a Yao Race Dao Sect!
He Wuya met his Junior Sister's gaze and sighed slightly.
"Don't be impulsive... Our descent from the mountain this time should follow Deacon Linghan's lead in everything. Since Deacon Linghan hasn't spoken, presumably... the Dao Sect has its considerations."
At this point.
His voice unconsciously lowered.
The world knows that the Nine Great Dao Sects have a transcendent status and can stand as equals with Yunmeng Palace.
But how could outsiders know.
The current situation of the Dao Sects is actually not easy.
Even if they could really suppress Yunmeng Palace, how could they just watch these Beasts being so arrogant?
And opposite the three.
It seemed he had grown somewhat impatient from waiting.
"Pfft."
Black Water Immortal Lord grinned, exhaling a foul, turbid breath.
He stood up abruptly.
His massive body brought a gust of dark wind as he strode irritably toward that Figure in Black.
Arriving close by.
Black Water Immortal Lord casually waved his hand.
Uncle Xun and Xu Linmiao, who were blocking the way, didn't have the slightest room to resist and were directly sent flying by a massive force.
He slammed both hands onto the table, his massive shadow completely enveloping the girl.
Looking down from above, he lowered his eyes indifferently: "What? Do you not understand words? You dare make this Lord come over personally?"
"..."
Beneath the massive body, the Girl in Black Robes lowered her head slightly.
Her pitch-black long hair fell, obscuring her face.
Her slender body trembled slightly in the shadow.
In the eyes of the surrounding people.
Everyone thought this girl had been overwhelmed by the terrifying pressure of the Chess Player Realm great demon.
Many people shook their heads with a hint of regret.
But when the girl before them slowly raised her head.
A sudden flash of astonishment crossed Black Water Immortal Lord's ferocious eyes.
In the girl's dark and bright eyes, there was actually a hint of ferocity and madness...
This kind of gaze...
Was exactly like his own gaze before consuming Human Cultivators!
"I clearly wanted to get along with you all as an ordinary person... why do you always have to force me?"
The girl's low voice reached his ears.
Black Water Immortal Lord was stunned for a moment, and before he could understand the meaning of these words.
In an instant.
The world spun.
Billowing black mist roared out from the girl's body.
Jiang Yuechu indifferently reached out her fair hand, grabbed the flesh of the other's neck, and slammed him onto the table with a boom.
Boom—!
Dust filled the air and shot into the sky, obscuring everyone's vision.
Within the mountain villa, exclamations rose everywhere.
Countless Human Cultivators and demons were pushed back repeatedly by this sudden blast of air.
Until the chaotic dust slowly dispersed in the mountain wind.
Everyone hurriedly raised their heads and looked into the distance in horror.
What met their eyes.
Amidst the messy ruins.
The girl still maintained her previous sitting posture, not even a corner of her clothes was in disarray.
With just one hand.
She had firmly pressed Black Water Immortal Lord's head onto the table.
And the great demon who was famous in the Fifty Thousand Li Great Marsh... under this fair hand.
Was actually unable to move!
