Chapter 1938: Great Imperial Palace
“But all of them are new. We’ll see how strong they can be,” someone else broke in at that moment. Everybody became silent and looked at the person who had said that strangely. He was extremely young, maybe seventeen years old. However, he had an extraordinary Qi. He was drinking fine liquor and eating snacks.
“A young man who isn’t even an emperor dares say that! That’s a bit arrogant and insolent!” a middle-aged man spoke up. Chu Chun Qiu, Lin Feng, and so on were all incredible cultivators. How did that trivial young man dare talk that way? How arrogant!
“You’re only considering the present situation. Have you forgotten about the past? Back then, there were some incredible cultivators in the Imperial Ranking List. For example Feng Shen Tian, his sword attacks were shockingly incredible. He killed geniuses from Ancient Clans without hesitation. He’s valiant and heroic. There’s also Pei Dong Lai, his purple Qi is a propitious omen. His cosmic energies are terrifying. Those people achieved much more than those people you’re talking about,” said the young man. The people in the restaurant were all staring at him.
Feng Shen Tian, Pei Dong Lai, and so on really were powerful and influential. They had shaken all of the Holy City. However, they were now great emperors. Those two people were both in the same place: the Great Imperial Palace! The Great Imperial Palace was incredibly powerful, and managed the Imperial Ranking List.
“There are geniuses in every generation. Feng Shen Tian, Pei Dong Lai, and so on are really incredible cultivators. But now they belong to a different world. You can’t compare them with people like Chu Chun Qiu, Lin Feng, and the others. And anyway, who says Lin Feng and so on won’t surpass them someday? It’s maybe only a matter of time,” someone predicted. People of different generations couldn’t be compared.
“Hmph! As I see it, anyone who’s from the Great Imperial Palace is better than those ‘outstanding’ people you’re talking about. You just keep forgetting about the past,” retorted the young man coldly.
As he said that, a woman in a white and silver dress came in, attracting all eyes. Her dress was very tight around her perfect body, and complimented her cleavage. She was very beautiful.
“Miss Yin Yue.” When Lin Wu Shang saw that girl, he smiled at her. Miss Yin Yue nodded back at him. It made Wu Shang very happy.
Lin Feng looked at his brother. He could imagine how his brother felt. Young men loved women, and were easily aroused.
“My brother goes out every day for her, right?” said Lin Feng to Xiao Ya telepathically. Xiao Ya laughed.
“It’s difficult to compare people of different generations. Feng Shen Tian, Pei Dong Lai, and so on were extremely strong, and now they’re even stronger than before, obviously. Are you from the Great Imperial Palace?” asked the young woman to the young man, smiling thinly.
“You are the princess of the Yin Clan. You are experienced and extraordinary! I am Pei Dong Qing from the Great Imperial Palace,” the young man introduced himself. He stood up, walked to the young woman and waved to a chair. “Please have a seat, Princess!”
“Oh, so you’re Pei Dong Lai’s nephew, he’s your uncle. No wonder you keep saying good things about him.”
“I’m just stating facts, Princess. It has nothing to do with the fact that he’s my uncle,” said Pei Dong Qing, his smile just a bit strained.
“But you can’t help but show off,” said the young woman from the Silver Clan. She didn’t sit with him , glancing over at Lin Wu Shang and smiling. “Silly boy, you came.”
“Hehe!” Lin Wu Shang scratched his hair and giggled in a silly manner. Lin Feng looked at his brother and laughed. His brother loved beautiful women, too. He looked completely different from normal.
“Tell her to have a seat!” said Xiao Ya, glancing at Wu Shang angrily. Wu Shang could be so stupid sometimes, he just let the Princess stand there.
“Yin Yue, please sit!” said Lin Wu Shang, waving at a chair and smiling at Yin Yue.
She sat down and smiled at him. “You seem like you’ve recovered.”
“Of course, I’m strong.” said Lin Wu Shang gigling. He didn’t even dare look at her in the eyes.
Stop showing off, thought Xiao Ya, rolling her eyes. Wu Shang looked stupid in front of a woman.
“You were injured?” Lin Feng asked his brother.
“Small injury, it wasn’t serious,” replied Lin Wu Shang.
Lin Feng looked over at Xiao Ya. Xiao Ya told him using telepathy, “Last time in this restaurant, Wu Shang saved her.”
When Lin Feng heard Xiao Ya, he understood. No wonder this Yin Clan Princess was so nice to Wu Shang. But he looked so clueless. She was a princess, she didn’t need him to save her. Lin Feng had heard about the Great Imperial Palace and the Yin Clan. They had a good reputation in the Holy City.
Surprisingly, Lin Wu Shang was interested in her. That was a lot of pressure. Of course, Lin Feng couldn’t control his brother’s life, Lin Wu Shang could decide what he wanted to do.
“Lin Wu Shang, you haven’t introduced me to these people,” hinted Yin Yue, smiling at Wu Shang.
“You already know Xiao Ya, and that’s my brother, and that’s my sister-in-law,” replied Lin Wu Shang, pointing at Lin Feng and Meng Qing.
“Your sister-in-law is so beautiful, she looks like a celestial being. And your brother must be incredible!” said Yin Yue, looking at Lin Feng. Her eyes were really beautiful, with silver lights twinkling in them.
“Of course. He’s definitely not less talented than Feng Shen Tian and Pei Dong Lai!” said Lin Wu Shang proudly. He was angry because of the young man who had said that Lin Feng couldn’t be compared with people like Pei Dong Qing and so on. Lin Feng was like a god to his brother.
Pei Dong Qing frowned. He had just invited Yin Yue to sit with him but she hadn’t given him face, and now she was sitting with Wu Shang. He was angry now; he was from the Great Imperial Palace, Lin Wu Shang was a nobody to him. And now, ridiculously, Wu Shang was comparing his brother with Feng Shen Tian and Pei Dong Lai.
“Ignorant little kid,” said Pei Dong Qing indifferently, sipping his drink and saying, “You will probably never see Feng Shen Tian and Pei Dong Lai in your life. You’re extremely ignorant, like a frog in a well.”
Pei Dong Qing was arrogant, but many people in the restaurant agreed with him. After all, Lin Feng was just a medium-level emperor. Feng Shen Tian and Pei Dong Qing were great emperors and members of the Great Imperial Palace. They were much stronger than a medium-level emperor!
“What about you? We have similar cultivation levels. You’re bragging just because you have a strong person in your family,” said Lin Wu Shang mockingly. He was fearless, and he wanted to impress Yin Yue, too! Pei Dong Qing was a nobody to Wu Shang, and he wouldn’t let him criticize his brother.
When Pei Dong Qing heard Lin Wu Shang, he laughed coldly. He stood up and walked over to Wu Shang. He smiled coldly and said, “I’d like to ask you something. Which ancient clan are you from? We’ll see why you dare act that arrogantly.”
“Do I need to tell you?” rebutted Lin Wu Shang disdainfully. Pei Dong Qing despised him, did he need to reply to him?
“Don’t be ashamed of your background,” retorted Pei Dong Qing mockingly.
“Using one’s social status to compare oneself is a very bad habit,” said someone at that moment. That person was also having a drink. Pei Dong Qing looked at him icily. It was a middle-aged man, very clean, who looked like he took care of himself. He had an ancient sword on his back.
“Who are you?” demanded Pei Dong Qing sharply.
The middle-aged slowly put his glass down, and turned his head to Pei Dong Qing. Pei Dong Qing’s eyes suddenly felt extremely sore. He instantly lowered his head and his heart started pounding. The middle-aged man stood up and came over to him.
“Great Emperor Liu Yun, he was known as the Sword Emperor Liu Yun back in the days!” The crowd was shocked when someone recognized him.
“Great Emperor Liu Yun!” Pei Dong Qing was stunned. He glanced at the man, but the great emperor ignored him.
He walked over to Lin Feng and the others. He smiled at Lin Feng, “May I sit here?”
Pei Dong Qing was furious. He groaned icily and walked past them, saying, “There will definitely be some change.”
Pei Dong Qing left the restaurant quickly. People were stupefied and stared at Great Emperor Liu Yun. Surprisingly, he wanted to sit with Lin Feng, Lin Feng definitely wasn’t a nobody!
