Chapter 27: Jiang Luoli's "True Fragrance" Law, Ye Xingyun's Provocation

Everyone present was lost in thought, captivated by Jun Xiaoyao's appearance and temperament.

The eyes of every woman were filled with infatuation, as if their very souls had been snatched away by the handsome, immortal-like youth before them.

Jun Xiaoyao was like a deity descending to the mortal realm; his aura was simply too transcendent and ethereal.

"Is this the Divine Son of the Jun Family? Seeing him in person is truly better than a hundred rumors; he is truly a divine being..." everyone lamented in their hearts.

Amidst this profound silence, a sudden, delicate cry rang out.

"Wow, wow, wow! Are you the Jun Family Divine Son, Jun Xiaoyao?"

A bright and lovely young girl began shouting excitedly. Her beautiful eyes sparkled, and crystal-clear drool escaped from the corners of her tender, rosy lips.

"Hmm? And you are?"

Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow and looked toward the lovely girl.

His first impression was...

Short.

That was it.

Although Jiang Luoli was bright-eyed and white-toothed, charming and lovely, with two dimples appearing on her jade-like cheeks when she smiled, her stature was quite petite, appearing to be only about 1.5 meters tall.

"I... my name is Jiang Luoli..." Jiang Luoli's face flushed slightly.

"Jiang Luoli (Loli)?" Jun Xiaoyao tilted his head slightly.

"No... it's Jiang Luoli, no, no... it's Jiang Luoli..." Jiang Luoli's heart raced, and she became somewhat incoherent from embarrassment.

Jun Xiaoyao realized.

So, she was from his mother Jiang Rou's clan.

Thinking of this, Jun Xiaoyao gave Jiang Luoli a slight smile. "Thank you, Miss Jiang, for honoring us with your presence at this banquet."

*Puff!*

Seeing Jun Xiaoyao's handsome face, shrouded in celestial radiance and wearing a faint smile, Jiang Luoli felt a wave of numbness wash over her body, as if she had been struck by Cupid's arrow.

For a "face-con" like her, Jun Xiaoyao's looks hit every single one of her excitement points.

This was truly a god-tier level of beauty.

Beside them, Jiang Shengyi, looking at her nephew whose handsomeness seemed almost inhuman, felt her heart tremble slightly.

She had originally intended to tease Jiang Luoli, but now, she herself was somewhat stunned.

Because the moment Jiang Shengyi saw Jun Xiaoyao, an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.

Her Innate Dao Embryo physique actually felt a faint sense of resonance.

"What is happening..." Jiang Shengyi was startled, touching her slightly flushed, fair face.

"Xiaoyao, come here quickly. This is my distant cousin, your young aunt, Jiang Shengyi."

"And Luoli is the pearl of our Jiang family. You two should get to know each other."

Jiang Rou smiled as she greeted Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao was speechless.

So, that short little brat was the "pearl of the Jiang family" that Jiang Rou and Jun Zhantian had been constantly nagging him about for a political marriage.

"Aunt," Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly.

"That title makes me sound old. You should call me Sister."

As if to mask the strangeness in her heart, Jiang Shengyi feigned a relaxed demeanor, showing her white teeth in a charming smile as she teased him.

At the same time, she was observing Jun Xiaoyao, wondering exactly what kind of physique he possessed.

As for Jiang Luoli, her small face had been bright red from the moment Jun Xiaoyao appeared.

The girl, who was usually lively and spirited, now felt strangely constrained.

This scene, falling upon the eyes of the other guests, drew sighs of admiration from many.

It seemed this pearl of the Jiang family was already quite smitten.

Face-con enthusiasts were truly so superficial!

At one of the seats, Ye Xingyun watched the blushing Jiang Luoli, his body trembling with rage and his face turning extremely ashen.

"How can this be?" A dark cloud seemed to gather between Ye Xingyu's brows.

To be honest, he didn't actually want to provoke Jun Xiaoyao.

But seeing this scene, Ye Xingyun felt a sharp sting in his heart.

Jiang Luoli was the woman he intended to claim.

Aside from his looks, Ye Xingyun believed that in terms of talent, strength, and family background, he was in no way inferior to Jun Xiaoyao.

Furthermore, he had even had some interaction with Jiang Luoli back in the Falling Moon Secret Realm.

But now, without Jun Xiaoyao having done anything at all, he was on the verge of making Jiang Luoli fall for him just by using his face.

Was there no justice in this world?

Is being handsome such a big deal?

On the other side, Jun Zhangjian lamented, "How many years has it been? Junior Xiaoyao has already grown to this level."

Jun Zhangjian felt somewhat relieved that he hadn't offended Jun Xiaoyao back then, but had instead used the Yuan Tian Supreme Token to build a friendship.

That could be considered the wisest decision Jun Zhangjian had ever made.

Beside him, Jun Xuehuang gazed at Jun Xiaoyao, her icy blue eyes momentarily losing focus.

However, unlike Jiang Luoli, she wasn't a complete "face-con."

"This Divine Son is indeed worthy of his reputation; his aura is immeasurable," Jun Xuehuang said, shaking her head slightly.

Jun Xiaoyao was shrouded in a mist of divine radiance, making him impossible to see through.

Out of the corner of their eyes, they also noticed Jun Wanjie.

From the moment Jun Xiaoyao appeared, Jun Wanjie's gaze had been fixed upon him.

In his eyes, there was a faint trace of scrutiny and coldness.

Clearly, as someone born of a collateral branch who had endured many slights, Jun Wanjie was undoubtedly displeased with a direct-line genius born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

*Why do I have to struggle and fight for things that you possess by birth?*

"It seems Jun Wanjie finds Junior Xiaoyao somewhat disagreeable..." Jun Zhangjian whispered.

"To be honest, I'm a bit jealous of this Divine Son's status and treatment," Jun Xuehuang said, shaking her head.

Fortunately, Jun Wanjie was currently only watching coldly and had not made any extra moves.

Next, the banquet officially began.

Most people's attention still rested on Jun Xiaoyao.

The Princess of the Great Shang stared dotingly at Jun Xiaoyao, but she still shook her head slightly and whispered, "This Princess is not worthy of the Divine Son..."

This single sentence sent shockwaves through the surrounding factions.

Even the renowned Princess of the Great Shang whispered that she was unworthy of the Jun Family Divine Son?

"Who knows how much actual strength that Jun Family Divine Son possesses? Perhaps he is nothing more than a pretty face."

At this moment, a low voice spoke, heard only by a few people.

"Is that the Star King Physique of the Ye Family..." some people's eyes flashed.

Was this a subtle expression of dissatisfaction?

But it didn't seem like the Jun Family Divine Son had provoked him.

"Young Master, do not speak recklessly!"

Beside Ye Xingyun, the quasi-saint servant's expression changed, and he whispered warningly.

"Hmph..." Ye Xingyun's expression grew even darker.

As a genius of the mighty Ancient Ye Clan, was he not even allowed to say a single word?

Meanwhile, Jiang Rou was pulling Jun Xiaoyao aside, continuously introducing Jiang Luoli.

"Xiaoyao, you aren't young anymore. It's time to consider letting your mother have a grandson," Jiang Rou joked.

Hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao felt a bead of sweat.

*What do you mean "not young anymore"?*

Although Jun Xiaoyao looked like a tall, slender youth of fourteen or fifteen, he was actually only ten years old.

And looking at that little brat Jiang Luoli, Jun Xiaoyao truly felt nothing at all.

If they were actually forced into a marriage, Jun Xiaoyao would feel as if he were committing a crime.

Jiang Luoli's face remained flushed, and she didn't dare look Jun Xiaoyao in the eye.

"Tsk tsk, who was it before that said even if they died, even if they jumped off a mountain, they would never compromise on an arranged marriage..." Jiang Shengyi teased with a charming smile.

"Sister Shengyi, don't talk nonsense! When did I ever say such a thing!" Jiang Luoli puffed out her cheeks, her small head shaking like a rattle as she hurriedly denied it.

*As long as I don't admit it, it means I never said it.*

"But, he really is the most handsome person I've ever seen..." Jiang Luoli thought to herself, acting like a fangirl in her heart.

She now felt that an arranged marriage might actually be quite good.

Well, it's actually quite wonderful!

Watching Jun Xiaoyao and Jiang Luoli together, Ye Xingyun was practically driven mad with jealousy.

*Clang!*

The wine cup in Ye Xingyun's hand hit the table heavily.

The entire hall suddenly fell silent.

"The Jun Family Divine Son, is it? I am Ye Xingyun of the Ancient Ye Clan. I wonder if I might have the honor of requesting a few moves from the Divine Son?"
