Wang Shengan, enduring the pain, sat down between the two of them. "This is a task my father gave me, and I can't miss it again. Besides, there are some things that need to be clarified..."

At this moment, Bai Jingzhe and Wei Xuancang also entered and sat down opposite them, neither of them saying a word...

Lu Shangyu reached out and put his arm around Wang Shengan's neck. "You're in luck, kid. I heard that Yue Xiling, who is known as the most beautiful woman in the Great Thousand God Realm, will also be there later!"

He winked at Wang Shengan and said, "You're old enough to be a good match, how about giving it a try?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Shengan recalled the fleeting, breathtaking image that had captured his heart, and pursed his lips, saying, "I'm not interested at all..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Qingyu led Li Moxuan and Yue Xiling into the banquet hall. When Wang Shengan saw that familiar figure, his eyes widened and his heart began to pound wildly again.

Seeing Li Moxuan's gaze sweep over, Wang Shengan seemed afraid that he had been too forward and quickly looked away...

Since Li Moxuan came in with Yue Xiling, Lu Shangyu assumed he was looking at Yue Xiling and patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "How is it? Does it look good?"

Wang Shengan also mistook Li Moxuan for Yue Xiling, the legendary number one beauty in the Great Thousand God Realm, and found it hard to believe, "I never thought she was actually the daughter of the Moon Lord..."

Wasn't Yue Xiling supposed to have low combat power? How come she was able to defeat Liu Hengdao that day without summoning her guardian deity? Was she deliberately hiding her true strength?

Since there were four seats on each side, Yun Qingyu sat down on Wang Shengan's side, while Li Moxuan and Yue Xiling could only sit down on Bai Jingzhe's side.

Yue Xiling didn't want to sit next to Bai Jingzhe, so she let Li Moxuan sit on the inner side, while she herself sat on the outer side.

As soon as Li Moxuan sat down, he felt a burning gaze. He turned his head and saw an old man staring at him with intense eyes.

Being stared at like that by a man, Li Moxuan inexplicably felt an urge to punch him...

Yue Xiling pulled the chair closer to Li Moxuan and whispered in his ear, "Sister Xuan, that old guy next to you is Bai Jingzhe!"

"I already guessed it without you saying it..."

Li Moxuan reached out and slowly removed the veil covering her face. It was a simple action, but it gave Wang Shengan a different feeling.

The fairy opposite her stretched out her slender, white fingertips and gently touched the edge of her pale purple veil. Her movements were gentle and composed as she lightly brushed the veil down her cheek.

The light gauze gradually slipped down, first revealing a delicate and straight nose, then a smooth and lustrous chin, and finally, a stunningly beautiful face slowly unfolded.

Her eyebrows and eyes were as graceful as distant mountains under the moon, her eyes held a hint of coldness and aloofness, and her lips were as pale as jade.

In that instant of raising her eyes and lowering her veil, her beauty was revealed, a breathtaking glimpse that captivated the world, serene and otherworldly, making it impossible to look away.

"Hey!"

Shen Yanci, who was standing next to Wang Shengan, slapped him on the head with his fan and reminded him, "Mind your manners, Lord Yue is watching from up there!"

Lu Shangyu withdrew his gaze from Yue Qingxuan, who had just taken the main seat, and upon hearing the commotion beside him, couldn't help but chuckle, "Didn't you just say you weren't interested?"

Wang Shengan blushed. He originally wanted to say that she had saved him, but then he thought that would expose the fact that she had killed Liu Hengdao.

He simply kept quiet, but Lu Shangyu thought the kid was just shy...

"The dishes are all served, please begin your feast!"

Yue Qingxuan glanced around, his gaze lingering on Li Moxuan for a moment, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, before he slowly spoke.

"Thank God!"

After being busy for so long, Li Moxuan was indeed hungry and started eating by himself. As he ate, the voice of Li Shimin suddenly flashed through his mind.

"Looks like you're quite charming even when you're a girl!"

Li Moxuan's face darkened slightly. "Emperor Taizong, you didn't come here specifically to make sarcastic remarks, did you?"

"Of course not, do you see that woman sitting up there?"

Li Moxuan raised his head and looked at Yue Qingxuan. "I saw it. What's wrong?"

"Her guardian deity is the Moon Goddess..."

Taiyin Xingjun, also known as the Moon Goddess, is in charge of the moon, governs human fortune and misfortune, and is one of the deities in charge of human marriage and love.

Of course, none of that matters. What matters is that the Ziwei Emperor is the master of all stars, ruling over numerous star lords, including the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, the Six Offices of the Southern Dipper, and the Twenty-Eight Mansions.

He could be considered the Moon God's superior in the divine realm...

It turns out that one is the underworld, and the other is a dreamlike realm, and the guardian deities of both leaders are subordinates of their respective guardian deities...

"Lord of the Moon..."

Li Moxuan's thoughts were interrupted by Bai Jingzhe's voice. Before the banquet was over, Bai Jingzhe suddenly stood up and attacked Yue Qingxuan.

"Our Lord Liu Tianjun died within the Realm of Illusory Dreams. How do you intend to give us an explanation?"

Yue Qingxuan looked at him calmly, "We are currently investigating the real culprit, and we will definitely give you an explanation once we find him..."

As she spoke, her gaze shifted to Wang Shengan, who bore the marks of lightning strikes and should know something.

However, Bai Jingzhe's purpose was not there; he gave Wei Xuancang, who was standing next to him, a wink.

Wei Xuancang then stood up and said, "Lord Yue, you should know the purpose of our Domain Lord's trip, but it is not safe to continue waiting here!"

"Therefore, the Domain Lord plans to dispatch five more Heavenly Lords and over a hundred members of the Thunder Domain to protect his personal safety and help find the murderer..."

Yue Qingxuan would definitely not agree to it. Sending so many people would be an invasion.

This is clearly a blatant threat, but Huanmengtian's current strength is no match for Leiyu...

Of course, she understood what Bai Jingzhe wanted, and slowly said, "Lord Lei, you can return in peace. I will have people prepare for Xiling's wedding as soon as possible so that she can go back with you..."

Although she was prepared, Yue Xiling still felt a chill run through her body upon hearing these words, her face turning pale and weak. Li Moxuan, who was beside her, also stopped what he was doing and frowned.

He could understand Yue Qingxuan's purpose in doing so, which was similar to the ancient practice of marriage alliances, but that did not prevent him from feeling uncomfortable.

After all, it's unsettling to see a young woman who looks to be in her early twenties marrying a lecherous old man. Of course, there are people who feel even more uncomfortable than him...

Chapter 385: Utter Disappointment

"Cough cough cough...What?!"

Wang Shengan couldn't help but stand up. His savior was being forced to marry a decrepit old man?

Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to him. Shen Yanci looked away and continued eating, while Lu Shangyu, not wanting to miss out on trouble, gave him an encouraging wink.

Yue Qingxuan glanced at him indifferently, "Is there anything you need, Young Master Wang?"

Wang Shengan wanted to speak out for justice, but then he realized that he didn't seem to have any right to interfere in this matter at all...

After hesitating for a moment, he still mustered his courage and said, "Your Holiness... I... I just think we should ask Miss Yue's opinion on this matter..."

Hearing this, Lu Shangyu sighed and rubbed his forehead. This kid's no good! He needs more practice...

Yue Qingxuan glanced at him in surprise, then her gaze fell on Yue Xiling. "Xiling, do you two know each other?"

Yue Xiling shook her head gently. She didn't understand why Wang Shengan spoke up for her. Could it be that he was also lusting after her?

But she soon realized she was overthinking it...

"She...she's your daughter?"

Wang Shengan stared at Yue Xiling with a surprised look, leaving Lu Shangyu beside him somewhat bewildered. "Otherwise? Who did you think it was?"

Everyone's attention turned to Li Moxuan, who was quietly watching the drama unfold. He realized that Wang Shengan had mistaken him for Yue Xiling.

Wang Shengan looked a little embarrassed; it turned out he had made a mistake...

Shen Yanci, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled him down to sit and steered the conversation toward Li Moxuan.

"Lord Moon God, this young lady is a new face. Aren't you going to introduce her?"

Of course, he was also very curious about Li Moxuan. She was so young and beautiful, and her divine realm seemed to be close to immortality. No matter how you looked at it, it was impossible for her to be unknown!

"She's just Xiling's friend, not someone from Huanmengtian..."

Yue Qingxuan was also very curious about Li Moxuan's identity, and somewhat suspected that he and Jiang Ciyou might be the same kind of people...

Why do you all look at yourselves?

With so many people staring at him, Li Moxuan couldn't eat anymore. He wiped his mouth, stood up, and cupped his hands in greeting:

"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now!"

While everyone was still here, Li Moxuan planned to wipe out all the people Lei Yu had brought...

Yue Qingxuan gave him a deep look and slowly said, "Please go ahead!"

Li Moxuan had expected to be stopped, but Yue Qingxuan let her leave so easily. Did her guardian angel say something to her?

Without thinking too much, he picked up the sword that was placed aside and left the banquet hall step by step...

Wang Shengan stared at his retreating figure for a long time before turning his gaze away. Even the delicious food in front of him couldn't be eaten.

After hesitating for a moment, he made up his mind to finish his business quickly before catching up with the person and at least finding out their name...

"Lord Moon God, Lord White Domain, we from the Underworld have come here to withdraw from the joint bounty on the Tang Clan..."

The two already knew about this matter. The Holy See should have sent someone over, but after sending the letter, there was no further activity.

Yue Qingxuan nodded gently, "Young Master Wang, please rest assured and report back to your father that Huanmengtian has no objections and will also withdraw this time..."

In the matter of suppressing the remnants of the Tang Clan, Huanmengtian only contributed a token amount of money and went with the flow, without sending anyone to participate.

Yue Qingxuan learned from Bai Shaotian that the assassin who killed Liu Hengdao was very likely a member of the Tang Clan, clearly an act of revenge by the Tang Clan.

Since continuing wouldn't bring any benefit, it's better to take advantage of the Underworld's withdrawal and leave together...

Bai Jingzhe was surprised by this, but he had no objection. The reason they jointly offered a bounty on the remnants of the Tang Clan was mainly to win over the Sword God who had single-handedly shattered the Tang Clan.

The Tang Clan, with its twelve hall masters and three "Venerable Ones," was an absolute overlord in the Great Thousand God Realm, yet it was defeated by one person and is now in this state, demonstrating the formidable strength of the Sword God.

With the Underworld and Illusionary Dream Heaven withdrawing now, it's tantamount to giving up on winning over the Sword God, and Bai Jingzhe is overjoyed!

But now that the Thunder Domain and the Underworld are enemies, how could he possibly let go of such a great opportunity to vent his anger?

Bai Jingzhe gently shook the jade cup in his hand, "I heard that Wang Renqing was forced to stand at the Sword God's gate for more than half a month without even getting a glimpse of him. Now that he's giving up, he does have some self-awareness!"

"you……"

Lu Shangyu understood the sarcasm in his words, and his temper flared up instantly. He slammed his fist on the table and stood up, but fortunately Shen Yanci pulled him back in time.

"Ninth Brother, calm down. Lord Yue is treating us to good food and drinks. We can't just smash this place up, can we? That wouldn't be appropriate..."

After pulling him back, Shen Yanci stood up, playing with his folding fan. "Lord Bai is right, but his wording is inappropriate. We should just back down when things get tough!"

"Furthermore, even the Sword God might not respond to the Thunder Domain's offer of allegiance. Lord White is celebrating too soon; be careful that you don't end up with nothing..."

At this moment, Lu Shangyu calmed down. "I almost forgot, the Thunder Domain doesn't even have an heir yet!"
