Xu Xiwang also saw Ye Honglian, whom he had tortured, in the crowd.
The two locked eyes, and Xu Xiwang gave a wicked smile, making Ye Honglian feel a chill run down her spine.
Inside the meditation room, an elderly man dressed in white sat quietly on a floating futon. His eyes were closed, and his face was kind, like a meditating immortal, serene and elegant.
Around him, various kinds of pigments and runes floated, and the whole room was filled with a faint scent of ink.
"Greetings to the Celestial Sage."
Bai Ling walked up to the old man and bowed respectfully.
Xu Xiwang's gaze swept over the other people sitting on the futons below. Good heavens!
So many familiar faces!
Xu Qingfeng, Zhou Feng, Han Huaiwei.
Looking at the young man in white next to Han Huaiwei, his eyebrows and eyes were like swords, his face was like jade, and his lips were red and his teeth were white. He sat there like a sword, his sharpness was obvious.
Xu Xiwang frowned. This should be Han Yijian, the second on the potential list, known for his undefeated yet ultimately successful sword body.
Han Yijian seemed to sense Xu Xiwang's gaze. He slowly opened his eyes, his deep and mysterious eyes staring at Xu Xiwang, giving people a sense of inexplicable pressure.
The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with curiosity.
"Your Majesty, we have brought one more person with us this time. We wonder if you would allow him to attend your lectures?"
Bai Ling asked cautiously.
“Then one of you must get out. That’s my rule.”
The Celestial Saint King did not open his eyes, but uttered a sentence indifferently.
Upon hearing this, everyone's heart tightened, and they all turned their gaze to Bai Ling, who was standing to the side.
No one wants to miss this precious opportunity to listen to lectures and gain enlightenment!
"This, this...this..."
Bai Ling felt a little embarrassed, but looked at Xu Xiwang beside her.
It means he's telling everyone that he brought the people, it's none of my business, and you should all go and settle accounts with him.
"Maybe I should just leave."
Ning Hanshuang gently tugged at Xu Xiwang's sleeve and whispered.
"Need not."
Xu Xiwang smiled faintly, then stepped forward to stand before the Heavenly Saint King.
A hint of schadenfreude flashed in Bai Ling's eyes. Xu Xiwang, just you wait and see!
"Old man."
Xu Wang gave a cold shout, and then, to everyone's astonishment, sat down opposite the Heavenly Saint King.
Upon hearing this, the Celestial Saint King slowly opened his eyes. His eyes, as vast as the starry sky, seemed to see through everything, sending chills down one's spine.
"Old man, is it alright for me to bring someone along? Isn't that giving you enough face?"
Xu Xiwang crossed his legs and said in a nonchalant manner.
The Celestial Saint Lord looked at Xu Xiwang, his lips twitching violently.
"You, you..."
Bai Ling's pupils contracted instantly. She never expected that Xu Xiwang would dare to speak to the Heavenly Saint Lord like that!
Everyone was stunned, fearing that Xu Xiwang would anger the Heavenly Saint Lord, and then the Heavenly Saint Lord would just leave, leaving them with nothing to listen to.
"Xu Xiwang, how dare you speak to the Heavenly Emperor like that! How disrespectful! Your Majesty, please expel him!"
Han Huaiwei stood up and said indignantly.
Xu Xiwang glanced indifferently at Han Huaiwei, then shifted his gaze to Tianji Shengjun's face, and sneered, "I may be disrespectful, but what can you do about it? You're not happy about it? If you are, then bite me!!"
"you!"
Han Huaiwei's face flushed red, but she didn't know how to refute it.
At this moment, the Celestial Saint King nodded slightly, "Then you can get out."
Han Huaiwei looked smug when she heard the Heavenly Saint Lord speak. "Xu Xiwang, did you hear that? The Saint Lord told you to get out!"
Xu Xiwang curled her lip and glanced at Han Huaiwei with disdain.
"You! You...you piece of trash! And you're still ignoring me!"
Han Huaiwei angrily pointed at Xu Xiwang, calling him a piece of trash repeatedly.
"Hey little girl, why aren't you leaving?"
The Heavenly Saint Lord's gaze was icy, as if a mountain was pressing down on people's heads, making it hard for them to breathe.
Han Huaiwei was startled. "Your Majesty, who are you referring to?"
"If I wasn't talking about you, am I?"
Han Huaiwei was terrified, her whole body turning cold. "Heavens, Heavenly Saint Lord, I, I..."
Han Yijian slowly stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty, my younger sister is ignorant and I hope you will forgive her this time."
The Heavenly Emperor remained silent.
He then turned to Xu Xiwang, bowed, and said, "Brother Xiwang, please forgive my sister's abruptness. As her elder brother, I apologize on her behalf. I also want to thank you for your magnanimity, and thank Aunt Liu for giving my sister a spot. Han Yijian is deeply grateful."
Han Yijian's attitude was extremely humble, and his words were extremely respectful.
Xu Xiwang was somewhat surprised; Han Yijian's inner strength was truly remarkable!
Unlike other geniuses who are arrogant and disdainful of others, he is extremely humble. His humility is not hypocritical like Xu Qingfeng's, but rather gives people a sense of inexplicable closeness.
Han Yijian is indeed a genius.
Not only is he exceptionally talented in cultivation, but he also has a wealth of knowledge and skills in dealing with people and situations.
Xu Xiwang nodded calmly, "Han Huaiwei, you really need to learn some principles of conduct from your older brother. If there's a next time, it won't be as simple as it is today."
Han Huaiwei glared at Xu Xiwang with a cold face, but dared not say anything more and could only silently endure it.
"I hope you are right, brother. It's just that my younger sister has been following a master in her cultivation since childhood, so she has had less contact with people. Therefore, her personality is inevitably a bit unruly and willful. I hope you won't mind. I will teach her more in the future."
Han Yijian smiled humbly, his tone sincere.
"It doesn't matter."
Xu Xiwang waved his hand and said lazily.
