Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny novel Chapter 1386

Chapter 1386: Chapter 1383: Steps to the Sky, Riding the Dragon - The Swift Groom (First Update)

"Jealousy?" Bai Xi shook his head. "A group of good-for-nothings who can’t even protect their own homeland isn’t worthy of my interest!"

Zong Cheng’s expression shifted slightly but quickly recalled something, letting out a sly chuckle. "Ah, my bad memory! Of course, Brother Bai wouldn’t care for those native Ghost Race folks. After all... Brother Bai is soon to become the esteemed son-in-law of the Luo Family!"

At this, Zong Cheng squinted mischievously. "I heard tomorrow’s banquet will mark the first appearance of this Luo Family eldest daughter in this realm, and she’s even going to take a master! Has Brother Bai been invited?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Of course!" Bai Xi replied openly, smiling faintly. "Not only was I invited, but my father has already prepared to officially propose marriage to the Luo Family at the banquet!"

Hearing this, Zong Cheng was momentarily stunned, a flicker of jealousy flashing in the depths of his eyes. But he quickly concealed it and clasped his hands toward Bai Xi.

"So that’s the case. Then my early congratulations to Brother Bai. May you win the beauty’s favor soon!"

"Well said! Well said!" Bai Xi laughed as well, though how much sincerity was hidden in that smile, only he himself knew.

Being from distinguished Ghost Race families, neither of them believed in such brotherly camaraderie. In truth, the Ghost Race operated this way—everything prioritized self-interest.

Thus, neither of them took these compliments to heart.

But tomorrow’s banquet did weigh heavily on both their minds.

The reason was simple. Although these foreign Ghost Race families hadn’t been in this realm for long, they had formed clear hierarchies.

For example, the two of them came from the Bai Family and the Zong Family, respectively.

These two prominent families were on par with the Wan Clan in terms of strength, which was why they dared to freely pass judgment on Wan Gaoxing.

However, they were also well aware that their tier wasn’t the highest in this realm.

If one were to name the most powerful family in Chuzhou City, it undeniably had to be the Luo Family.

And it wasn’t just due to a disparity in strength; it was even more because the invasion of this realm had been spearheaded by the Luo Family.

There was even a rumor that an influential figure from the depths of the Ghost Realm backed the Luo Family.

As a result, the eldest daughter of the Luo Family, who had just entered this realm and had yet to make a public appearance, naturally attracted attention from all sides.

What’s more, this banquet was a master-apprentice ceremony.

But who the master was—no one knew.

This only added an air of mystery to the banquet.

In such a situation, Bai Xi exuded great confidence. It wasn’t just his self-assurance, but also his confidence in his family.

After all, rumors were already spreading in Chuzhou City about a possible alliance by marriage between the Luo and Bai families.

This was clearly a narrative pushed by the Bai Family.

Although Zong Ma’s heart churned with envy, his focus soon shifted. With a sinister tone, he growled, "Damn it. That guy Wan Gaoxing will definitely show up at this banquet. Didn’t he leave to search for the Ancient Mirror? Seems like he came back empty-handed!"

"When the time comes, I’ll seize the opportunity to humiliate him in public and vent this pent-up frustration!"

Of course, Zong Ma’s actions weren’t just motivated by jealousy.

In reality, Wan Gaoxing’s unruly and capricious behavior had long made him and Zong Ma adversaries. This was just a convenient excuse and opportunity!

Bai Xi, however, remained silent. All his thoughts were focused on the upcoming banquet.

Because deep in his heart, a certain ambition was buried.

Everyone assumed he was coveting the Luo Family’s power, but who truly understood his real intentions?

Thinking of this, a cold smile played on Bai Xi’s lips.

He cared little for the so-called Luo Family’s power.

What he truly valued was the legendary figure rumored to stand behind the Luo Family.
