A Bizarre Bloodline
Xu Sheng and Xu Long quickly flew into the sky and came to Yun Luo, bowing respectfully.
"Senior Heavenly Dao! You've arrived!"
The two of them acted like lackeys.
Yun Luo glanced at Xu Sheng and Xu Long, and nodded slightly.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Yun Luo on the ground and sat down alone at the very front of the banquet table, with no one daring to approach her easily.
Even Li Wensong deliberately kept his distance from Yun Luo.
Not long after Yun Luo appeared, Xu Sheng saw that the time was right and sent a message to his father.
Shortly after, a bell rang, announcing the start of the banquet!
"Hahaha! Welcome everyone! I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting!"
Suddenly, a void passage appeared at the very front of the plaza, from which a loud laugh echoed.
Xu Heng appears.
Xu Heng was slender yet upright, dressed in a dark gold brocade robe with cloud patterns, and a wide black belt inlaid with star jade tied around his waist, with shimmering light floating in the fluttering of his robe.
Her long, gray hair was tied up with a jade crown, and two strands of silver hair hung down in front of her forehead, swaying gently in the wind.
Those hawk-like eyes, with their murky amber pupils that occasionally flashed with a sharp glint, rippled like a stone thrown into a deep pool, sweeping over all the guests.
Accompanying Xu Heng were a man and a woman, as well as several people from the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce!
The middle-aged man and woman beside Xu Heng possessed an exceptionally refined demeanor.
The man was dressed in a long black robe with gold thread. His face was as resolute as if carved by a knife and axe, and his brows were filled with the majesty of someone who had long held a high position. A red jade dragon-patterned pendant hung at his waist, faintly exuding a murderous Sha Qi that suppressed the eight wastelands.
The woman wore a moon-white flowing cloud-patterned dress with wide sleeves, her hair adorned with a nine-turn exquisite ice crystal hairpin, and her fair neck was wrapped with a star-like chain. With each step she took, a circle of pale silver Dao patterns bloomed beneath her feet.
Although the two deliberately concealed their auras, the oppressive aura of the Late Sovereign Realm was still as deep and imposing as a mountain, causing the surrounding cultivators to unconsciously hold their breath and lower their heads.
Qian Jiahe, the president of the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce, followed respectfully behind the two men and women with several subordinates, like an old servant!
Clearly, this man and woman are also members of the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce, and their positions within the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce are extremely important!
Li Wensong and Xu Man all looked in that direction. When they saw the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce members respectfully following behind Xu Heng, their brows furrowed instantly, and all their attention fell on the extraordinary man and woman.
These two people are probably not simple characters!
With someone like that Xu Heng, things seem even more complicated...
Li Wensong's heart grew increasingly heavy.
Xu Man and Qiao Yuqin were the same; their fists, hidden under the table, were clenched tightly.
As for Qian Lingxu, his eyes became cloudy for a moment after he saw the man and woman next to Xu Heng.
I think I know that man and woman!
"How did they end up here..." Qian Lingxu's lips twitched, and he muttered to himself.
He never imagined that the Xu Household would involve so many people!
Now things are in trouble. If he really makes a move later, there's a risk he'll be recognized...
After Xu Heng appeared, he first greeted the people of the highest status present one by one.
First, Heavenly Dao Yun Luo, then went to Ding Yishan, put his arm around Ding Yishan's shoulder, called him "Brother Shan," and then pulled Ding Yishan along to greet the other Sovereign Realm guests.
After walking around, he returned to the main seat and gestured for the servants to serve the dishes.
"Before the banquet begins, let me say a few words!"
At this moment, Xu Heng smiled and glanced around the room.
"First of all, I, Xu, would like to thank everyone for traveling a long way to attend this banquet! Secondly, I would like to take this opportunity to announce some very happy news! Today, I, Xu, intend to get engaged to this fellow Daoist!"
As Xu Heng spoke, he could no longer hide his smile; he almost burst into laughter.
He never expected such fortuitous opportunity to come so soon!
Everyone was greatly alarmed upon hearing this.
How old are you?!
They even...
The group of people shifted their gaze to the woman standing next to Xu Heng.
This woman didn't seem to be from the same generation as Xu Heng; rather, she looked more like Xu Heng's daughter!
The middle-aged man then smiled and said, "I am Li Ming, a hall master of the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce. This is my sister, Li Ling. You may not be familiar with me, so let me put it this way: Qian Xiuzhu, the president of the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce, is my uncle!"
After these words were spoken, the entire room fell silent.
Even Heavenly Dao Yun Luo's eyes widened when he heard these words.
Everyone in the room looked at each other in bewilderment.
Li Wensong and Xu Man also frowned.
This means that Xu Heng has formed a marriage alliance with the Qian Household, a top-tier power in the Eight Heavens Continent?!
Why?!
No one in the room understood what was going on.
That's the Qian Household!
How could Xu Heng, a Middle Sovereign Realm, possibly marry the niece of Qian Xiuzhu, an Eternal Realm expert?!
Ding Yishan was also surprised that Xu Heng could marry the niece of the Qian Household patriarch, and stared at Xu Heng blankly.
That guy! He didn't even tell him about this!
"Why didn't you tell me about this?" Ding Yishan asked Xu Heng telepathically.
Xu Heng heard Ding Yishan's telepathic message but ignored it, because in his view, Ding Yishan was no longer on the same level as him!
He's going to get on the good side of the Eternal Realm expert!
Ding Yishan, with its hopeless Eternal Realm, is just like that.
However, he wouldn't completely break off relations. From now on, he wouldn't call Ding Yishan Brother," but rather Ding Yishan would call him "Brother"!
"I suppose you all feel that I am unworthy of this fellow Daoist? To be honest, I also feel that I am unworthy of this fellow Daoist!" Xu Heng feigned shame, but everyone knew that he was not ashamed, but rather smug!
"When Xu broke through to the next level some time ago, he suddenly discovered that he had awakened an extremely special bloodline! This bloodline is rare even in the entire Nine Directions and Ten Domains; it's called the Thousand Offspring Chaos Bloodline! Those who possess this bloodline are freed from the shackles that limit the birth of offspring for powerful individuals! I've already decided that after marrying this fellow Daoist, I'll have a dozen or twenty children! To create more descendants for both our families!!!"
At this point, the entire banquet square fell into complete silence; you could hear a pin drop.
The same sentence was flashing wildly through everyone's minds.
Holy crap!!!
The Thousand Offspring Chaos Bloodline?!
When Li Wensong heard about this bloodline, his lips and face twitched violently.
People who possess this bloodline must have it incredibly awesome!!!
Not only can they reproduce quickly, but their offspring also have a very high probability of inheriting their parents' talents, and some may even unleash extremely extraordinary talents!
It can be said that anyone, regardless of gender, who possesses this bloodline will instantly become the focus of attention of major top powers and be treated as an honored guest!
Just provide for them directly!!!
Who wouldn't want a large number of terrifyingly talented geniuses to emerge within their ranks in a very short period of time?!
