Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 528 - 525: Young Girl Bai Jie! [First Update]
Chapter 528: Chapter 525: Young Girl Bai Jie! [First Update]
In the Chen Family Mansion, hundreds of guests had already gathered, each one wealthy and distinguished.
At the moment, they were all congratulating a young man named Chen Ting.
Chen Ting was the young master of the Chen Family, and also the brother of Chen Yanhong.
"Young Master Chen, your sister has caught the eye of Immortal Master Li; your family is going to soar to the heavens. Don’t forget to pull up old friends like us when the time comes!" someone said with undisguised envy.
"Old Xu, what are you talking about? Although Immortal Master Li is a dragon among men, a Heavenly Immortal, Miss Chen is also celestial in beauty, a beauty from the paintings. She and Immortal Master Li are a match made in heaven, destined to be together!"
Someone started to flatter the Chen Family, blatantly elevating Chen Yanhong, who was only above average in looks, to the status of a Fairy descended from the heavens.
The man known as Old Xu laughed sheepishly and said, "Yes, yes, the young lady and Immortal Master Li are indeed a pair made in heaven. I misspoke; I’ll punish myself with a drink!"
Seeing this, the others joined the raucous encouragement.
"One drink is not enough, you should punish yourself with three!"
"Fine, three drinks it is!"
Old Xu was a good sport about it, downing three large cups of Moutai in a row, making for a cheerful atmosphere.
As the host, Young Master Chen’s face was all smiles, blooming like a chrysanthemum.
Just then, the sound of a pipa playing as rain hitting banana leaves suddenly rang out from the stage.
Right after, twelve beautiful young women, dressed in traditional attire with fluttering skirts, began to dance gracefully.
In an instant, the attention of everyone present turned towards the stage.
The stage curtain slowly opened, revealing a young woman in a rose red, gold-embroidered, double-layered long-tailed phoenix robe, with a graceful figure standing elegantly.
However, her face was covered by a red bridal veil, obscuring her features.
In front of her stood an exquisite Burnt Tail Guqin.
She sat in front of the guqin, her slender, jade-like fingers dancing across the strings like sprites, producing a crisp and melodious sound.
Seeing the astonished expressions of the audience, Chen Ting said proudly, "Gentlemen, this is my sister Chen Yanhong. She is playing ’Phoenix Seeking Phoenix,’ the very piece that Immortal Master Li played during his private visit with my sister!"
Having finished speaking, he shook his head and chanted a couple of lines, "Oh phoenix, oh phoenix, return to thy homeland, rove over the four seas in search of thy mate. Without meeting the right moment, nothing prevails; who knew that today, you would ascend to this hall!"
"Wow, ’Phoenix Seeking Phoenix,’ the piece Sima Xiangru used to court Zhuo Wenjun. Immortal Master Li is so romantic!"
The girl who gasped like a lovesick fan was the same one who had rolled her eyes at Li Chen before.
Her name was Bai Jie, from a small family in Xiangxi with tens of millions in assets. With a good family background and beautiful appearance, she was incredibly arrogant. However, she was crazy about Immortal Master Li, her biggest dream being to be graced by his presence and to spend three days and nights in his embrace.
Helpless, when it comes to lust, women can be more terrifying than men!
Others also understood the Chen Family’s intentions and began to flatter accordingly.
"Only when the Chinese parasol tree is planted, can the golden phoenix be attracted. With Miss Chen as the parasol tree, it’s only natural for Immortal Master Li to come knocking at the door!"
Hearing their brazen flattery, Li Chen just shook his head.
"Ah, it’s all nonsensical. Clearly just an ordinary person, why try to force a literary pose?"
Li Chen’s statement caused a sudden shock among the crowd.
Other people looked over with expressions of astonishment.
As the host, Chen Ting’s face darkened frighteningly.
"Sir, what did you just say?"
Pointing at the girl playing ’Phoenix Seeking Phoenix’ on the stage, and then at the red banner overhead that read "Immortal Master Li and Chen Yanhong happily united in marriage," Li Chen said with a cold laugh, "I said what you’re doing here is utterly disgusting, opening the gates to nausea!"
"Uh, ’opening the gates to nausea,’ what does that mean?"
"What else could it mean? It’s utterly disgusting, that’s what!"
Upon hearing someone bluntly saying that their Chen Family’s conduct was "nauseating to the core," Chen Ting instantly became livid with embarrassment and anger.
"Darn it, how dare you say our Chen Family is nauseating to the core?"
Hearing his words, Li Chen repeatedly waved his hands, saying, "No, no, no, that’s not what I meant. What I mean is, every single one of you seated here is nauseating to the core!"
This really did it, not only did the Chen Family become livid with embarrassment and anger, but the other guests also became furiously enraged.
"This young man, it seems like you’re purposely here to cause trouble, huh?"
"He must be jealous, jealous of Immortal Master Li!"
...
Chen Ting waved his hand at his men and commanded, "Uncle Chen, kick him out!"
The man called Uncle Chen was a muscular brute with a body like a tiger and a bear, at the peak of Inner Strength, moving with an imposing stride like a tiger stirring up the wind.
"Kid, you’re really courting death, daring to cause trouble at our Chen Family Mansion. Tell me, do you want to leave on your own, or do you want me to throw you out?"
Li Chen pursed his lips with a smile, and said lightly, "You’re the first person who dares to talk to me like this. Admiration for your courage, I must give you a thumbs up!"
Having said that, Li Chen actually extended his thumb to the burly Great Hann in a gesture of approval, as if giving him an actual thumbs up.
Seeing a fair-faced young man daring to mock him, the burly Great Hann could not help but become tremendously enraged.
"Boy, you’re deliberately seeking death, don’t blame me for it!"
Before he could finish his sentence, he swung his large fist, the size of a sand pot, towards the Sun Temple on Li Chen’s head. freёnovelkiss.com
If it were an ordinary person, this punch would undoubtedly burst the skull open.
Unfortunately, Li Chen was no ordinary person!
"Heh, weak strength, terribly off the mark, and the speed is garbage. What a piece of trash!"
After uttering the word "trash," Li Chen casually made his move, effortlessly tossing this nearly 200-pound burly man out, hanging him on the branches of the old tree at the entrance.
A reveal of strength with just one move, doesn’t it prove the truth?
Seeing Li Chen dispatch Uncle Chen, a man at the peak of Inner Strength, with a single move, everyone present was absolutely stupefied.
"No wonder he dares to cause trouble at the Chen Family, he definitely has some skills!"
"He has some skills, but what of it? Doesn’t he realize where this is? Whose engagement ceremony he’s disturbing?"
"You’re right, looking across the whole of Huaxia, who could be more badass than Immortal Master Li?"
...
A well-meaning old man, aware that Immortal Master Li was a Killing God who could easily slaughter cities and exterminate clans, couldn’t bear the thought of Li Chen lying dead on the spot and quickly stepped forward to advise, "Young man, you better leave quickly. Once Immortal Master Li arrives, there’s no escaping for you."
Li Chen, with a look of disdainful amusement, smiled and said, "I’m here today precisely to await that Immortal Master Li. If he doesn’t show up, I refuse to leave!"
Seeing how resolutely Li Chen spoke, the old man no longer tried to persuade him, and could only helplessly shake his head.
At this point, the other people also subconsciously retreated a few steps back, indicating they had no association with Li Chen, lest once Immortal Master Li arrived, they suffered as innocent bystanders.
Just then, a loud singing came from outside the gate.
"Immortal Master Li has arrived!"
Upon hearing "Immortal Master Li has come," everyone present stood up on their toes, craned their necks, and widened their eyes, looking towards the gateway, hoping to catch a close glimpse of Immortal Master Li’s divine countenance.
The young lady Bai Jie also took the opportunity to give Li Chen another disdainful glance, saying triumphantly, "Hmph, sour grapes. Now that Immortal Master Li is here, let’s see how you finish this."
Li Chen nonchalantly picked up a cup of tea, his lips curling into an amused smile, and took a sip.
Today, he was really curious to see who it was that dared to so brazenly use his name to swindle and deceive.
