Chapter 159: Things with Dog Eyes Looking Down on Others

Five days until the Grand Competition.

Today is Qin Fei’s birthday.

Xiao Yang had already prepared a big gift for Qin Fei.

And yet, Qin Fei sent him an invitation to his birthday banquet.

Wasn’t that just trying to annoy him?

On Xiao Yang’s birthday, his little junior sister Jiang Ting was nonchalant about it.

Moreover, in recent years, Qin Fei intentionally stirred up troubles on Xiao Yang’s birthday.

It was either nearly going mad from practicing or accidentally bumping into something while cultivating.

Qin Fei’s motive was simple: he wanted to keep little junior sister Jiang Ting by his side, not letting her celebrate Xiao Yang’s birthday.

And he succeeded every time.

With this, he flaunted in front of Xiao Yang.

He was proving to Xiao Yang that in little junior sister Jiang Ting’s eyes, he, Qin Fei, would always be more important than Xiao Yang.

Whether at any time or place, when he had something going on, Jiang Ting would rush to his side first.

Once or twice, when Jiang Ting was celebrating Xiao Yang’s birthday, a single message from Qin Fei would make her abandon Xiao Yang and go straight to him.

Qin Fei was orphaned, pitiful, neglected, and unprotected as a child—why should I care about him?

Little junior sister Jiang Ting always had that excuse.

She’d chide him for being petty, narrow-minded, and uncaring towards fellow disciples in an irritated tone.

And now, he no longer liked Jiang Ting.

Whatever they did was no longer his concern.

But Qin Fei couldn’t annoy him.

Wasn’t Qin Fei trying to prove once again that he was more important to Jiang Ting than Xiao Yang?

Did he think Xiao Yang wouldn’t see through Qin Fei’s tricks?

But he couldn’t care less now!

In the evening, at the City Lord’s Mansion banquet hall.

All the nobles in the city who received the invitation had arrived.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Yang thought to himself, on a day like today, how could he not go?

Qin Fei wanted to annoy him.

Then he would send a big gift to Qin Fei.

However, just as he was about to leave, he was suddenly ambushed by that guy, Li Kuangtu.

He was thinking about how his gift for Qin Fei didn’t hold enough weight.

And now Li Kuangtu chose this moment to attack him.

Wasn’t this just delivering a gift right to him?

Li Kuangtu, son of Li Kuang, and Qin Fei’s cousin.

In his previous life, this guy had the title of “Invincible Demon Fist.”

Who knows how many martial cultivators from the North perished beneath his fists.

In his last life, he and his father, Li Kuang, directly stormed the Qingyang Sword Sect, setting up demonic arrays and blood sacrificing all the sect’s disciples.

In this life, father and son could not storm the Qingyang Sword Sect again, nor could they blood sacrifice all its disciples.

Because Li Kuang was dead.

And it was Xiao Yang who forced Qin Fei, the undercover from the Demon Sect, to personally eliminate his uncle.

Now, Li Kuangtu was also dead.

This is the benefit of playing dumb.

Xiao Yang’s enemies don’t know his true strength, leading them to make wrong judgments.

Li Kuangtu thought Xiao Yang was only at the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm, so he dared to come kill Xiao Yang.

He thought his half-step into the Divine Martial Realm was enough to crush Xiao Yang.

Killing a little Heavenly Martial Realm brat should be a piece of cake, right?

If Li Kuangtu knew Xiao Yang was a mighty swordsman in the Divine Martial Realm, would he dare approach him?

No one is stupid enough to seek death.

Xiao Yang took out a wooden box, placed Li Kuangtu’s head inside, and stored it in his Qiankun bag.

At this moment, several figures appeared in the outer hallway.

It was a masked woman.

Xiao Yang caught a whiff of a faint, alluring fragrance.

The masked woman was followed by a middle-aged woman and the innkeeper.

“This…”

All three were stunned when they saw the scene in Xiao Yang’s room.

This was Carefree Inn.

Behind Carefree Inn was the Carefree Palace.

The Carefree Palace represented the eleventh force in the Northern Region.

How dare someone stir up trouble in Carefree Inn?

“Handle this!”

Xiao Yang glanced at the masked woman and then walked past them directly.

Though the woman’s face was covered, he recognized her.

Carefree Saintess Hua Mengli.

Xiao Yang had been ambushed by Li Kuangtu and fought in the room.

Though the confrontation was brief, it was sensed by the experts inside Carefree Inn.

That graceful middle-aged woman was an elder from the Carefree Palace stationed at Carefree Inn.

The innkeeper was also a concealed master.

In front of him, there were no secrets at all.

The three women exchanged glances.

They all knew Xiao Yang’s identity.

They did not stop him and directly let him leave.

“This kid is definitely not an ordinary one!”

The elder from the Carefree Palace sighed, watching Xiao Yang’s figure disappear around the corner.

They then looked at the headless corpse in the room.

Who is this guy, daring to lay hands on the Holy Son of the Qingyang Sword Sect?

With the Grand Competition approaching, anything could happen.

Plus, remnants of the Demon Sect were resurfacing at this very moment.

The remnants of the Demon Sect showing up now must have some conspiracy.

It’s worth noting that the Demon Sect was once the public enemy of the North, hunted by the major forces united.

In the end, the Demon Sect had to hide away in the Demon Abyss.

No one expected the remnants of the Demon Sect to come back and cause trouble.

“Investigate!”

With a single command from the Carefree Saintess, the forces of the Carefree Palace in Nine Heavens City immediately took action.

……

Xiao Yang walked out of the Carefree Inn and looked over at the City Lord’s Mansion.

Carefree Inn was located right on the main street in front of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Xiao Yang smiled and strode toward the City Lord’s Mansion.

“Please show your invitation!”

When Xiao Yang arrived at the door of the City Lord’s Mansion, he was immediately stopped by someone.

Without an invitation, he couldn’t enter the City Lord’s Mansion, let alone participate in Qin Fei’s birthday banquet.

The guard coldly stared at Xiao Yang. “Want to sneak into the banquet? No invitation, get lost.”

“Hmm?”

Xiao Yang’s gaze turned sharp in an instant.

“What? You want to cause a scene here? Do you even know where this is? Open your dog eyes and see clearly, this is the City Lord’s Mansion, not a place where you can run wild.”

Another guard scoffed.

“Why is it that everywhere you go, there are some dogs looking down on others?” Xiao Yang replied casually.

“What did you say?”

The two guards glared at Xiao Yang in anger.

They didn’t recognize him.

“Bro, you can’t get in without an invitation!”

At this moment, a voice came from the side.

Xiao Yang glanced in the direction of the voice.

He saw a plump young man waddling over.

Behind the fatty were two distinguished-looking middle-aged men.

“Oh, it’s Young Master Luo Feng! Do you know this person?” one guard quickly changed his demeanor and acted all servile upon seeing the well-dressed fatty.

The Luo family of Nine Heavens City, second only to the Li family.

Luo Feng, the eldest son of the Luo family head, Luo Xuan.

This Luo Feng was well-versed in eating, drinking, and playing, his entire being seeming emptied by wine and lust.

He approached Xiao Yang, looking him up and down with his panda eyes.

In fact, many people in the city had seen Xiao Yang.

After all, he made a super big splash in the market at Nine Heavens City.

A lot of people had seen him back then.

But this Luo Feng clearly did not know who Xiao Yang was.

“Oh, isn’t this Brother Xiao? What, can’t get in?”

Another voice came.

Xiao Yang turned and found a familiar face.

It was a handsome young gentleman.

He was Tang Chen, the Senior Brother from the Heavenly Medical Sect.
