More than 90% of the crowd were men, with only over eighty women present.
Those above the ninth level were all in the emperor sovereign realm, and only a small fraction was in the emperor realm!
Among those in the emperor realm, nearly all were powerful individuals at the eleventh or twelfth level!
When the crowd saw Tan Yun and the others enter, most of them cast dismissive glances, especially towards those at the seventh-grade emperor realm.
When the crowd saw Tan Yun and the others enter, most people glanced dismissively at Tan Yun, who was at the seventh grade of the emperor realm.
Then, almost all the men’s fiery gazes fixed on Xianxian, secretly thinking what a beautiful girl she was!
At this moment, a young man in a white robe, who was at the seventh grade of the emperor sovereign realm, approached Xianxian with a smile, looking as if he was trying to flirt. He clasped his hands and said with a grin, “I am Bai Xiao, the Third Young Master of the Grand Marshal's Residence in Xiahou Immortal City. May I ask if the young lady is planning to head to the Soul-Eating Abyss or the Ancient Divine Tomb?”
Tan Yun frowned but did not speak.
Xianxian looked at Bai Xiao with a face full of disdain.
As the daughter of the City Lord of Skyreach Immortal City, she was familiar with the sons of all the prominent families in the ten immortal cities. Even those she didn't know, she had heard of.
As for Bai Xiao, she had heard that he was extremely lecherous, almost a notorious womanizer.
With a charming smile, Xianxian replied, “Does it concern you where I’m going?”
Bai Xiao was taken aback; he thought that after revealing his identity, the young lady would treat him with respect, or even show affection. He didn’t expect her to respond this way.
However, seeing Xianxian’s harmless demeanor, he suppressed his anger and replied with a casual smile, “I too am heading to the Forbidden Area to explore treasures, perhaps I could accompany you to protect you?”
Xianxian chuckled, then suddenly wrapped her right arm around Tan Yun's left arm, saying, “Do I need your protection?”
“I have someone to protect me.”
Tan Yun frowned and added, “Yes, she has me to protect her, so you shouldn’t waste your time.”
As soon as these words were spoken, all the powerful individuals present were first stunned, then looked at Tan Yun with sympathy.
They knew that the Third Young Master of the Grand Marshal's Residence was not someone to be trifled with!
“How can a mere seventh-grade emperor realm pretty boy like you protect her?” Bai Xiao said, then suddenly sent a threatening message to Tan Yun, “Ant, the woman I set my sights on will never escape!”
“I give you three breaths of time to disappear from my sight, or don’t blame me for being rude!”
Upon hearing the transmitted message, Tan Yun smiled lightly, “If you want to threaten me, just say it directly. Why send me a voice transmission?”
Tan Yun chuckled, abruptly pulling Xianxian closer, “She is the woman I have set my sights on, so don’t waste your efforts.”
“You're asking for death! Do you even know who I am?” Bai Xiao glared at Tan Yun with murderous intent, pointing at him with rage.
“Are you mentally challenged? Didn’t you just say you’re Bai Xiao, the Third Young Master of the Grand Marshal's Residence?” Tan Yun waved his hand impatiently, “Don’t disturb my enjoyment, get lost!”
“How dare you insult me! I’ll kill you!” Bai Xiao shouted angrily, ready to make a move when suddenly, a cold female voice rang out, “What a great show of power, Third Young Master Bai. Are you planning to kill someone in the Alliance Headquarters?”
Upon hearing this, the murderous intent on Bai Xiao's face vanished. He turned to see a beautiful woman in a purple dress, around twenty years old, walking out from a pavilion into the hall.
This purple-dressed beauty had a tall and curvy figure, exuding a mature and alluring charm.
She was none other than Xiahou Xuan, the vice president of the Alliance Headquarters and the daughter of the City Lord of Xiahou!
