Chapter 1710: Chapter 1710: Did You Ask for My Opinion?

Li Jincheng entered the venue like an ancient emperor, surrounded by numerous civil and military officials.

Li Jincheng nodded frequently and smiled in acknowledgment to the people at the venue, resembling a leader inspecting his employees. Although he appeared to be very amiable on the surface, his every movement exuded an aristocratic aura of superiority.

Especially with the more than a dozen individuals following behind Li Jincheng occasionally emitting terrifying killing intent, it caused some people, who intended to ingratiate themselves with Li Jincheng, to back off.

Li Jincheng slowly walked onto the high platform, and flattery followed him wherever he went.

"Young Master Li is truly the unparalleled dragon among men! Who among his peers can compare?"

"Such words miss the mark. Not only among his peers, but even many elder heroes ruling regions would find it difficult to rival Young Master Li."

"Brother, what you said is reasonable; it was my oversight earlier."

Upon hearing the high praise for Li Jincheng, Huang Tingyun felt even more proud, knowing that it was through his connections that he could attend the banquet held by Young Master Li.

When Huang Tingyun sensed the look of admiration from his colleagues towards him, he felt as if his entire body was light and floating.

He then flashed a rather smug smile at Lu Wanqing.

However, Huang Tingyun was stunned to find Lu Wanqing’s eyes completely focused on Ye Chenfeng, making him irritated.

What’s so good about that punk, compared to me, he’s like heaven and earth.

With this thought, Huang Tingyun approached Ye Chenfeng and said, "Mr. Ye, try to stay calm. Although it’s your first time attending such a grand banquet, there’s no need to be so excited that your hands start shaking, right? But then again, every person here is someone you can’t afford to offend."

"Quiet!"

Ye Chenfeng coldly glared at Huang Tingyun and said, "Heh, just a bunch of ants; in a moment, I’ll have them kneel before me."

Little did Huang Tingyun know, Ye Chenfeng’s clenched and slightly trembling fists were due to anger.

Those martial artists following behind Li Jincheng were the culprits who kidnapped Phoenix and others.

Today, he was determined to kill them all for revenge.

"Hahaha, Mr. Ye, have you gone mad from fright at such a scene?"

Huang Tingyun laughed uncontrollably, as if hearing the biggest joke in the world.

"Indeed, Mr. Ye, even if you are jealous of Young Master Li, there’s no need to say such things to attract attention; it’s utterly ridiculous!"

"Being inexperienced is not your fault, but making a fool of yourself in public is. Mr. Ye, take good care of yourself!"

The nearby accompanying teachers also looked at Ye Chenfeng with disdain, thinking he must be crazy.

Among them, only Lu Wanqing showed concern in her eyes because she knew some things about Ye Chenfeng, especially regarding the legend of the Forbidden God King...

"He wouldn’t want to cause a scene on such an occasion, would he?"

Lu Wanqing felt anxious and uneasy.

But at that moment, standing at the center of the high platform, Li Jincheng began to speak.

"Everyone, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend the banquet I am hosting. I appreciate it."

Li Jincheng’s voice was rich and had a magical quality, instantly causing those dreaming of marrying into a wealthy family to scream repeatedly.

"Young Master Li, what are you saying? Attending your banquet is our honor. Isn’t that right, everyone?"

"Old Chen is right. Being invited to your banquet is our honor, and many people don’t even have the qualifications to attend!"

"Young Master Li, we’ve heard you plan to announce something big at the banquet. What is it about?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the previously noisy banquet fell silent, with everyone waiting for Li Jincheng’s answer.

Especially those women dressed in their finery stood on their toes, hoping to catch every word, having heard that Li Jincheng intended to announce his marriage to a woman.

If the rumor is true, the women hoping to marry into the Li Family might see their dreams dashed.

"Since we’ve reached this topic, I won’t hide it anymore."

Li Jincheng paused and raised his voice slightly, continuing, "I announce that in three days, I will marry Miss Phoenix."

Whoa!

The room erupted into an uproar as soon as Li Jincheng finished speaking.

"I never thought the rumors were true. Which great family’s daughter is so fortunate to catch Young Master Li’s eye?"

"No matter which family, they are indeed lucky! With the protection of the Li Family, it’s hard not to rise and prosper."

"Young Master Li, could you let us have a glimpse of Miss Phoenix’s unparalleled beauty?"

This last question hit the nail on the head. Everyone was most curious about who Phoenix really was.

And at the mention of the name Phoenix, a fierce killing intent burst from Ye Chenfeng’s body, which he quickly suppressed.

However, this was enough for those experts who had lived on the edge of life and death for years to notice.

Especially Piao Hai, who was following closely behind Li Jincheng, gave a slight sound of surprise; he was genuinely possessing the cultivation of the Innate Third Layer Heavens.

"What’s wrong?" Li Jincheng asked softly.

After a moment of contemplation, Piao Hai said, "Young Master Li, there’s killing intent."

"Very strong killer," Piao Hai added.

Li Jincheng chuckled and said dismissively, "Aren’t you being too sensitive? Who would dare cause trouble at such an event? Even if there were an assassin, with you all here, they would come with no return."

Piao Hai nodded, convincing himself repeatedly that perhaps he was indeed overreacting; otherwise, why would the killing intent vanish without a trace?

Li Jincheng returned to the previous topic, saying, "Since everyone is curious, I’ll satisfy your curiosity. Bring Phoenix here."

It wasn’t long before Phoenix was brought into the venue by several men in black.

Ye Chenfeng’s eyes narrowed; he noticed that Phoenix was not bound and seemed ’free,’ though her face showed reluctance, she still followed the men in black.

"Could it be that Li Jincheng is threatening her with the lives of Yao Dao and the others?"

Ye Chenfeng pondered.

Indeed, as Ye Chenfeng suspected, otherwise, with Phoenix’s character, how could she allow Li Jincheng to dictate her?

"Miss Catherine, will you marry me?"

When Phoenix approached, Li Jincheng smiled and asked.

Although Li Jincheng smiled, his tone was full of threat.

Phoenix clearly wanted to curse him but forced herself to hold it back. However, agreeing to marry Li Jincheng was more painful than death to her.

But if she refused, then Yao and the others would become casualties.

Phoenix was filled with righteous indignation, and her face turned extremely ugly.

"Divine King, where are you? Were you really killed by the Iga Family?"

Phoenix couldn’t believe it, nor did she want to believe it.

"Phoenix, I’m talking to you."

Li Jincheng’s voice rang out again.

Yet before Phoenix could respond, an icy voice came from the edge of the crowd.

"Li Jincheng, have you asked for my opinion on this matter?"
