Chapter 1154
Sky Reaching City was a spirit-grade continent's hub . It was many times more peaceful than heaven- and sanctity-grade continents' cities . That peacefulness made it hard to forget that Jiang Chen murdered Ji Hai, a Wizard Clan warrior .
With the banquet approaching, citizens began discussing the matter once again . They all wondered whether Jiang Chen would attend . Additional questions swirled around the fact that Jiang Chen had fought against Ji Yuan from the Wizards Clan .
The news quickly spread from the Scarlet Blood Field stated that Jiang Chen had battled Ji Yuan's incarnation, gained the victory, and snatched the Wizard Blade . Such news spread made it to all corners of the Heavenly Martial Arts Realm . The people found it unbelievable, but they quickly got an adequate explanation for it .
The two men had a battle to the death . That meant neither of them would hold anything back and they could use all techniques . Jiang Chen had already revealed his powerful external power possessed when he ran amok in the All Saints Sect . Since Ji Yuan couldn't hand over his secret weapons into his incarnation, such an outcome wasn't strange .
However, there were now more grudges between Jiang Chen and Wizard Clan . People suspected that a great battle would likely occur at the banquet if Jiang Chen attended .
"He will go . " Lin Shuangyue was quite sure of this matter .
Only people who interacted with Jiang Chen were aware of this . However, she didn't continue discussing the matter . When the flying ship stopped, she looked at the surface . A strange look appeared on her face .
They were on one of Sky Reaching City's most flourishing streets . It had on it a tall building that stood out here like a crane in a flock of chickens . Inside it was the city's most famous restaurant, Stars Plucking Restaurant . It was rumored that one could eat dragon's meat there . The people who could enter it were all wealthy and respectable . Ordinary people couldn't get in .
"You should quieten after a while," Lin Shuangyue said . "Even if you get angry, please bear it for me, OK?"
Lu Ping looked over at her and noticed that her pretty face was filled with worry . He couldn't help but wonder what means Madame Lin possessed or how she managed to force Lin Shuangyue to be so docile and obedient .
"I will," he replied .
After getting a positive reply, Lin Shuangyue's mind was set at ease . She took him to the entrance of Star Plucking Building .
The servant standing in front of the entrance to welcome guests recognized her with just a glance . "Young Miss Lin, Madame Lin is waiting for you inside . "
Lin Shuangyue nodded and asked him to show them the way .
Lu Ping followed behind them without uttering a single word . After entering, he sized up the restaurant's layout . A sign of appreciation could be seen in his eyes .
The restaurant was a place of charm and beauty . It didn't seem like an ordinary restaurant with tables assembled together . It was more like a garden overflowing with vitality .
There were many private rooms here . They continued proceeding forward until they reached the depths of the restaurant . The servant showing them the way knocked on a door . Someone inside the room opened the door .
Lu Ping discovered that Madame Lin alone, who was sitting at the table, wasn't alone . There were several other men and women in the room .
The additional people were out of Lin Shuangyue's expectations . When she saw a woman the same age as her, displeasure appeared on her face .
The people sitting at the table were all sizing up Lu Ping, but they didn't look directly at him . They just examined him out of the corners of their eyes .
The beautiful woman sitting at the center shouted out excitedly, "Shuangyue!"
"Mother!"
"Sit down here," Madame Lin said . "Why don't take a look at yourself? You have stayed outside for so long and have lost so much weight . You are getting too thin . "
Lin Shuangyue nodded and led Lu Ping to the table . She said, "Mother, this is Lu Ping, whom you asked for . "
She was dissatisfied with her family's ice-cold attitude toward Lu Ping, but he strode forward and calmly greeted them . Such actions benefited his character .
