<h4>Chapter 1080: Chapter 1080: I’m Not Targeting Anyone, I’m Just Saying Everyone Seated Here Is Trash (2nd Update)</h4><h4></h4>


    Once these words were uttered, Ruan Jingshow’s face changed drastically, "Young Master Qi...."


    But Ji Haoqiong just grinned andughed, "I have a habit, I never touch anything others have used, especially women."


    Upon hearing this, Qi Hongbo burst intoughter, "Young Master Ji speaks the truth, it seems I also need to change my habits from now on!"


    Faced with suchments, Ruan Jingshow could only bow her head, her face so mortified it seemed as if it could bleed.


    At that moment.


    The elegantly dressed, delicate-faced maidservants began to serve dishes like flowing water.


    All kinds of extremely precious ingredients, after meticulous cooking, exuded a tantalizing fragrance.


    Any dish casually ced on the table might be the entire fortune of an ordinary cultivator.


    Faced with suchvish spending, these scions of wealthy households remained indifferent, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary.


    "Young Master Qi, your presence here representing the Heavenly Fire Divine n shows your status is ever more secure. Perhaps it won’t be long before you officially be the Young n Leader of the Heavenly Fire Divine n. When that timees, I hope that Young Master Qi will lend me your support!" the bronze-skinned giant said with an ingratiating smile.


    Hearing this, Qi Hongboughed pridefully, "Brother Li is too polite, if I take charge of the Heavenly Fire Divine n, everything will surely be manageable!"


    The giant, upon hearing this, was overjoyed, raising his cup, "Thank you, Young Master Qi!"


    After speaking, he drained the cup, his expressions and behavior full of sycophancy.


    If someone who knew this giant saw this scene, they would probably be shocked.


    For this giant was named Li Gang, the number one direct disciple of the Power Divine Temple, and a leading figure in his respective domain. But his fawning manner in front of Qi Hongbo showed just how ingrained the notion of ’the strong prevail’ was in the Divine Realm.


    At this moment, the young man in white, fanning himself with a paper fan, spoke with a smile, "Young Master Qi, I see there is still a seat empty. Is someone elseing?"


    Everyone couldn’t help but look puzzled.


    For indeed, there was one chair still vacant.


    Qi Hongboughed, "Brother Bai is indeed observant, yes, there will be one more personing!"


    The crowd murmured slightly.


    The young man in white couldn’t help but frown slightly, "All the proud talents of the noble families within the Cursed City have gathered here, I wonder who this additional person could be?"


    The young man in white was named Bai Chong, the legitimate heir of the Ancient Sword Divine n, and due to his wide social circle, he was well aware of the strong figures who hade to the Cursed City.


    So he naturally wondered who Qi Hongbo was waiting for.


    Qi Hongbo shook his head, "Not one of the noble family talents, but a woman!"


    The crowd first looked stunned, then suddenly understood.


    Li Gang sneered, "No wonder Young Master Qi has reserved a seat, it turns out to be for a woman!"


    Bai Chong couldn’t help but smile, "Then today, we really must behold this woman who has caught Young Master Qi’s eye."


    Just then, the sound of footsteps came from the stairs.


    And then Xue An and Chu Xiaoyun slowly walked up.


    In an instant.


    All eyes focused on Chu Xiaoyun.


    The magic Chu Xiaoyun used to hide her face did not work on these scions from noble families.


    So, after a brief examination, even the most critical had to nod in approval.


    Indeed, she was a peerless beauty.


    Especially her figure, sinuous as a serpent, was simply the favorite of men.


    Inparison, Xue An by her side seemed very ordinary.


    Only Zhong Anan, after giving Chu Xiaoyun a few nces, focused her attention on Xue An.


    Especially when she noticed that despite the young man’s modest demeanor, his eyes were as deep and tranquil as the sea, she was taken aback.


    Then she smiled with interest.


    At this moment, Bai Chong closed his paper fan with a snap and murmured in admiration, "Indeed, she is a woman worthy of Young Master Qi’s attention, truly ethereal and beautiful, a sight to behold!"


    Everyone was reminded by those words.


    "Indeed, indeed, Xiao Bai speaks the truth!"


    "Truly breathtaking beauty!"


    The haughty scions of the grand ns all began to cheer.


    Standing behind Qi Hongbo without even a seat of her own, Ruan Jingshow was nearly driven mad with jealousy upon hearing their praises.


    Why is it that this wretched girl, despite being of inferior birth and lower cultivation level than me, consistently outshines me?


    Yet these emotions were something she dared only vent inwardly, not daring to show them on the outside.


    So, nobody noticed her.


    At that moment, even Qi Hongbo’s eyes shed with surprise, before he nodded with pride, "Miss Chu, we have been waiting for you. Please have a seat!"


    As he spoke, Qi Hongbo slightly bowed and gestured with an open hand.


    This attitude sparked a slight stir among the crowd.


    Chu Xiaoyun, however, showed no reaction, merely lowering her eyes and stepping aside.


    Huh? What does this mean? Many were puzzled.


    It was at this time that Xue An strolled forward leisurely.


    Only then did many take notice of Xue An, standing beside Chu Xiaoyun, and they were all somewhat taken aback.


    What does he intend to do?


    Amidst the rising doubts.


    They saw Xue An approach the table, then slowly and deliberately took a seat.


    The entire ce fell silent at once.


    Many faces changed, and then all eyes turned in unison toward Qi Hongbo.


    To them, the actions of this young man were clearly a challenge to the dignity of Young Master Qi.


    Now it was up to Young Master Qi to deal with the situation.


    As expected.


    Young Master Qi’s expression darkened, a glint of cold light shing through his eyes.


    "Hmph!"


    This snort sounded like amand.


    Li Gang, who had been brimming with impatience, abruptly stood up, with a ttering expression on his face, and said to Xue An, "Kid, do you know where you are?"


    In face of Li Gang’s exceedingly arrogant interrogation, Xue An did not be enraged but instead smiled faintly.


    "Oh? What ce is this?"


    "Hmph! This is the Jade Banquet Pavilion, and all present here are the outstanding scions of the noble families, the elite of the elite. And you... which n or sect’s illustrious scion might you be?"


    Despite Li Gang’s seemingly brusque exterior, he was actually quite attentive.


    Indeed, there were no fools who could make a name for themselves in the Divine Realm.


    He observed that although Xue An’s demeanor was modest, there was an innate bearing in every move he made, feared that Xue An might be a treasured scion of a major n or wealthy family, and thus he intended to rify first.


    Otherwise, if it came to blows, he would be at a disadvantage.


    And hearing his inquiry, everyone in the audience pricked up their ears.


    Facing this question, Xue An’s lips curved up, revealing a faint smile.


    "I am no illustrious scion, nor the heir of any grand n or noble family. My name is Xue An!"


    He said, surveying the room, "I came here to see for myself what these so-called ’chosen ones’ are all about!"


    "The result... I am thoroughly disappointed!"


    Upon hearing that Xue An was not one of the noble scions, Li Gang rxed and became extremely arrogant, demanding in a sharp voice, "What do you mean by that?"


    Xue An shook his head, "No particr meaning, I’m not actually targeting anyone, I just wanted to say that everyone here, you’re all trash!"
