Presumably, at this moment, there were many who, like the Queen and Chu Feng, found the introduction to this Gold-Stone Gambling a bit ridiculous. However, not a single one of them dared to show it.
In fact, many wore expressions of eager solicitude.
This was no surprise. After all, the Gold-Stone Clan was the overlord of a whole Upper Realm, a power the Star Fall Holy Land could not compare to, a colossal entity on the same level as the Chu Heavenly Clan.
"An honor to meet you."
Facing the overly solicitous Jinshi Bo, Xia Yun'er politely returned the greeting.
After all, that was simply the kind of person Xia Yun'er was. Even towards someone she disliked, she would not openly show it.
"Miss Xia, it's too stuffy here. Not very interesting."
"I was hoping to invite you for a stroll outside. I wonder if Miss Xia would be willing?" As Jinshi Bo spoke, his lecherous gaze swept over Xia Yun'er, his expression animated with delight.
"A stroll? From where I'm standing, it looks more like you're trying to take advantage," Song Yunfei said coldly.
As the Holy Son of the Star Fall Holy Land, Song Yunfei had always considered Xia Yun'er his future wife. How could he tolerate someone else here, trying to seduce his betrothed?
"Who are you? I wasn't speaking to you. Why do you butt in?" Jinshi Bo glared at Song Yunfei, clearly annoyed.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you'd best stay away from my junior sister. Otherwise, don't blame me for not being polite." As he spoke, Song Yunfei released the aura of his Eighth Grade True Immortal cultivation, pressing it down upon Jinshi Bo.
"Insolent!"
But at that moment, the Supreme Elder of the Gold-Stone Clan released an even more powerful pressure.
That pressure was so overwhelming that the instant it was unleashed, all the juniors present, Chu Feng included, felt as if they had been thrust into hell.
"Eighth Grade Martial Immortal."
At that moment, Chu Feng was nearly certain that this Supreme Elder of the Gold-Stone Clan was an Eighth Grade Martial Immortal, because he had sensed an identical aura from the Star Fall Holy Land's Supreme Elder, Elder Tuoba.
An Eighth Grade Martial Immortal was naturally formidable.
In but an instant, he shattered Song Yunfei's pressure. Yet he did not stop there; his terrifying aura continued to press down toward Song Yunfei.
Hum—
However, that formidable pressure stopped right in front of Song Yunfei.
"What is this?"
Chu Feng's eyes narrowed. He sensed the pressure of another Eighth Grade Martial Immortal—precisely that pressure which had blocked the Supreme Elder of the Gold-Stone Clan.
But Elder Xing Yi and the grey-haired elder from the Ghost Sect Palace had clearly not acted.
This meant there was another expert present.
Hum—
Sure enough, the space in front of Song Yunfei warped and twisted, and then an aged figure materialized.
It was an old woman. She had lived for at least ten thousand years, the wrinkles on her face tightly clinging to the bone, devoid of vitality. At a single glance, she was somewhat terrifying.
