Chapter 410: I Have Eaten A Dragon
Everyone was in a stupor. Did she just scold him?
The young miss of the Xuanyuan Clan actually knew how to scold someone so harshly?
Wang Yue was furious. He pointed at Xuanyuan Ling and grumbled, "Bitch, how dare you humiliate me! Do you not want to live anymore?"
He came late, so he had no idea about Xuanyuan Ling's identity.
Everyone stared at Wang Yue as if he were pitiful, and everyone had the same thoughtthe Wang Clan was doomed.
The old man behind Xuanyuan Ling rushed out.
Before Wang Yue could respond, the old man slammed his palm on Wang Yue's chest.
Boom!
Wang Yue was blasted a few meters away and crashed heavily to the ground. He coughed a mouthful of blood as he looked around in a daze. Did someone just hit me?
The infuriated Wang Yue's face turned red in fury. He was about to speak when an old man rushed over from afar. The old man was none other than Wang Tian, the current Clan Leader of the Wang Clan.
Wang Tian walked up to Wang Yue's side.
Wang Yue was thrilled to see Wang Tian, but before he could say anything, Wang Tian raised his hand and slapped him in the face.
Smack!
The sound was so crispy that it left Wang Yue in a daze.
Wang Tian then turned around and walked up to Xuanyuan Ling.
He bowed respectfully and said in a trembling voice, "Miss Ling..."
In the end, he actually knelt down before Xuanyuan Ling.
The Wang Clan was quite powerful in Baiyun City, but it couldn't be compared to the Xuanyuan Clan. In fact, it would be an insult to compare the mighty Xuanyuan Clan to the Wang Clan.
Xuanyuan Ling's disbelieving gaze didn't leave the Nuwa's Stone at all.
She was too stunned to even do anything, but it couldn't be helped. After all, she was staring at one of Huaxia's ten divine artifacts, the Nuwa Stone. The Nuwa Stone had been missing for over a thousand years, so she hadn't expected to see it here, not to mention seeing it as a birthday gift.
Xuanyuan Ling's expression turned grave as she looked at Ye Guan and stammered, "M-Mr. Ye, do you know what this thing is?"
Ye Guan nodded. "Yes!"
Xuanyuan Ling's expression turned complicated. "And you still decided to give it as a gift?"
Ye Guan smiled without saying anything.
Meanwhile, everyone's gaze was on the Nuwa Stone. Even a child could see that the necklace in Su Zi's hand was precious, as it had elicited such a strong reaction from the young miss of the Xuanyuan Clan.
Unfortunately, none of them could recognize the Nuwa Stone.
Su Zi glanced at Xuanyuan Ling, and then she looked down at the Nuwa Stone in her hand with a gaze full of curiosity. She could sense that the Nuwa Stone was precious, but even if she hadn't received such a precious gift today, she would still appreciate any giftso long as it was Ye Guan's gift.
However, the fact that Ye Guan had actually decided to give her something so precious made Su Zi beam with a grin. She cast a gaze full of tenderness upon Ye Guan.
"M-Mr. Ye" Xuanyuan Ling said.
Ye Guan looked at Xuanyuan Ling.
"My birthday is in fifteen days," Xuanyuan Ling explained.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Ye Guan was confused. "???"
Xuanyuan Ling stared intently at Ye Guan. "You must come to my birthday."
Ye Guan's face darkened.
Su Zi frowned ever so slightly, and her gaze toward Xuanyuan Ling became wary.
There was something off about Xuanyuan Ling.
Hearing Xuanyuan Ling's words, everyone in the crowd looked at each other in shock, realizing that Xuanyuan Ling's attitude toward Ye Guan was quite unusual.
The crowd was instantly curious about Ye Guan.
Gu Yunman stared deeply at Ye Guan. Ye Guan's background seemed to be even more extraordinary than she had imagined.
Just then, a tremor suddenly ran through Wang Tian, and his voice was trembling as he said, "Miss Ling..."
Xuanyuan Ling glanced at Wang Tian with a slight frown. Just as she was about to speak, she seemed to have recalled something and turned to Ye Guan.
"Mr. Ye, does any bad blood exist between the Wang Clan and you?"
Ye Guan glanced at Wang Tian and Wang Yue.
"Indeed, there is bad blood between us," Ye Guan said with a nod.
Xuanyuan Ling nodded in response and turned to the old man.
"By tomorrow, the Wang Clan must disappear from Baiyun City."
Wang Tian was instantly pallid, and he crumpled to the ground.
The crowd full of distinguished guests showed complex expressions.
A single sentence had just determined the death of an entire clan. This was the power of the Xuanyuan Clan. The Xuanyuan Clan didn't need to make a move. A myriad of forces would eliminate the Wang Clan to curry favor with the Xuanyuan Clan, especially since the Wang Clan wasn't exactly a wholesome clan. They had been engaging in illegal activities, so it wouldn't be that difficult to get rid of them by tomorrow.
Su Mu turned to Wang Tian and Wang Yue before waving his hand. "Take them away."
Two men came forward and escorted both Wang Tian and Wang Yue away.
Su Mu smiled and turned to Ye Guan and Xuanyuan Ling.
"Please, both of you, take a seat," he said. His gaze was mainly on Xuanyuan Ling.
Xuanyuan Ling looked at Ye Guan. "Mr. Ye, please."
Su Mu's pupils abruptly constricted.
Xuanyuan Ling's gesture enlightened himYe Guan was the reason Xuanyuan Ling had decided to attend Su Zi's birthday party!
Su Mu was a bit surprised as he turned to Ye Guan. Who exactly was Ye Guan? How come the young miss of the Xuanyuan Clan was so respectful to him?
"Alright!" Ye Guan nodded. He was actually quite hungry.
They took their seats. Ye Guan sat by Xuanyuan Ling, but Su Zi couldn't sit.
She was today's main character and had many other things to do.
The food was soon served, but no one dared to eat.
Ye Guan looked around and asked curiously, "Why aren't you all eating?"
They looked at Ye Guan without saying anything. It was absurd, but no one dared to eat before Ye Guan could eat.
"Let's eat!" Xuanyuan Ling declared. She picked up her chopsticks, but it was a bit difficult for her to eat, as she was wearing a veil, so she merely picked up a piece of meat and placed it in her bowl.
Ye Guan didn't stand on ceremony and started eating. The food in the Milky Way had more variety than in the Guanxuan Universe, and they tasted better as well. Ye Guan reckoned that the main reason behind the Guanxuan Universe's abysmal food culture was the fact that cultivators didn't need food to survive.
The party was full of people looking to network and establish connections. Many cast frequent glances toward Ye Guan and Xuanyuan Ling, wanting to get acquainted with them, but they couldn't quite approach the two.
Ye Guan remained focused on his food and was the only one genuinely enjoying the meal. On the opposite side, the auburn-haired girl next to Gu Yunman stared at Ye Guan with lingering fear in her eyes, clearly traumatized by the latter.
Xuanyuan Ling's gaze was fixed on him. She was genuinely curious about Ye Guan.
The fact that the Nuwa Stone had appeared in Ye Guan's hands had piqued her interest. Moreover, Ye Guan was willing to take it out and give it to someonea gesture she found remarkably generous.
Xuanyuan Ling couldn't help but feel a tinge of envy for Su Zi.
Su Zi delivered a speech, and a massive birthday was soon wheeled in front of everyone.
Three candles were sticking out of the cake, and it was time for Su Zi to make a wish!
Su Zi seemed to have recalled something and glanced at Ye Guan. She smiled sweetly upon seeing him engrossed in his meal. She closed her eyes and made a wish before opening her eyes once more and blowing out the candles.
The crowd applauded.
Su Zi wanted to approach Ye Guan, but Su Mu stopped her.
"Su Zi, today you need to get to know some people with me," Su Mu explained.
Xuanyuan Ling's presence had made everyone regard the Su Clan in a brand-new light.
Su Zi naturally had to take care of the distinguished guests here. While she didn't need to please others, just speaking a few words to each of them was considered giving them respect.
At the dining table, Ye Guan was still focused on his meal, creating a somewhat awkward atmosphere. Due to Xuanyuan Ling's presence, others hesitated to use their chopsticks and could only watch Ye Guan eat.
Just then, Ye Guan picked up a lobster. He looked at it and became somewhat perplexed. How do I eat this?
It was Ye Guan's first time seeing a lobster.
Xuanyuan Ling noticed Ye Guan's perplexed gaze and asked, "Mr. Ye, have you never eaten lobster before?"
Ye Guan nodded and admitted, "I've eaten dragon but not lobster."
The people at the table inwardly chuckled. The young man surely knew how to jest, but none of them dared to make fun of Ye Guan due to Xuanyuan Ling's presence.
Naturally, Xuanyuan Ling didn't take Ye Guan's words seriously.
A dragon was a legendary existence, after all.
Xuanyuan Ling picked up a lobster and peeled it before placing it on Ye Guan's plate.
"Mr. Ye, try it," she said.
Everyone at the table was stunned. Did Xuanyuan Ling just peel lobster for him?
Goodness! Even Gu Yunman was stupefied. She thought Xuanyuan Ling was just being respectful toward Ye Guan, but it was clear that Gu Yunman had been mistaken all this while. Xuanyuan Ling was trying to please Ye Guan!
Gu Yunman's heart was in turmoil. How was that possible?
Ye Guan was also a bit surprised. He hesitated briefly before saying, "Miss Xuanyuan, you're going a bit too far. I feel a bit embarrassed."
Xuanyuan Ling smiled and explained, "This is a trivial matter compared to the grace you have shown me."
The cultivation method and sword art that Ye Guan had bestowed upon her could change the trajectory of her life and alter the fate of the entire Xuanyuan Clan. She hadn't lied when she said that peeling a lobster for him was a trivial matter.
"We're friends, so you don't have to be so polite," Ye Guan said with a smile.
Friends! Xuanyuan Ling's lips beneath the veil parted into a charming smile.
Ye Guan took a bite of the lobster; he found it tender and delicious. He instantly fell in love with it. Xuanyuan Ling smiled upon seeing Ye Guan's expression and took the initiative to pick up another lobster for him.
Everyone at the table watched as Xuanyuan Ling peeled lobsters for Ye Guan.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't really care about what other people thought of her. In fact, she was ready to peel even a hundred thousand lobsters to repay Ye Guan's grace to her.
Just then, a woman suddenly walked up to Ye Guan.
Ye Guan was stunned to see the woman, and he muttered, "Miss Wanyu?"
