Chapter 662 The Mask Unveiled
This moment, the entire Juque City was captivated.
Everyone's gaze converged on the scene.
In the radiant light, an exquisitely beautiful woman wearing a precious blue silk glazed dress descended with graceful steps.
The woman appeared to be around twenty years old, with fair skin like white jade, a face as smooth as cream, and a perfect figure with alluring curves.
Her smooth, silky dark hair was styled in a bun, adorned with a peacock blue sapphire hairpin that exuded subtle luxury amid its understated elegance.
She had bright eyes and white teeth, her jade-like face as enchanting as a lotus emerging from water.
But she was not merely a woman of empty beauty; her beautiful eyes were deep and profound, carrying an intellectual quality.
She also possessed the charm of a beautiful and elegant woman.
This woman was none other than the eldest daughter of the Xia family, Xia Bingyun.
"Greetings, Miss."
Around the restaurant, several members of the Xia family cupped their hands in respect.
Over these years, without Xia Bingyun and the Cornucopia's help, the Xia family could not have developed to such a prominent position.
"That Evil Pit dared to kidnap my sister, truly hateful. Fortunately, she was rescued by a hero. I must meet him," said Xia Bingyun.
Xia Bingyun spoke with a smile at the corner of her lips, looking exceptionally charming.
This caused all the male cultivators from Juque City around her to stare in a daze.
Xia Bingyun was not only a beauty but also a walking celestial essence mine!
Looking at the soft leg lines partially visible beneath Xia Bingyun's dress hem, all the men present only wanted to cling to Xia Bingyun's thighs and say they didn't want to strive anymore.
Of course, they could only dream about it.
At this moment, inside the restaurant, Jun Xiaoyao sat casually in a chair.
Beside him, Yan Rumeng was massaging his shoulders.
Xia Chuqing's face also wore a smile.
The Wind Clan's quasi-supreme being, Feng Xiaotian, and others were also present.
Although Feng Xiaotian's performance was inadequate, barely helping at all.
But since the Wind Clan was a supreme great clan, the Xia family elders couldn't exclude him.
"Finally, I can meet Bingyun," Feng Xiaotian said with excitement in his expression.
Although things hadn't developed as he had planned.
But as long as they met, there would be a chance.
He believed that as the Wind Clan's young master, he would gain Xia Bingyun's trust more than that mysterious masked man of unknown origin.
Moments later, a radiant and beautiful woman entered the restaurant with graceful steps—it was Xia Bingyun.
"Miss..."
The surrounding Xia family elders all slightly bowed to Xia Bingyun.
After all, Xia Bingyun was almost certainly the next female head of the Xia family.
In the future, the entire Xia family would follow her commands.
Xia Bingyun paid no attention to others; her first glance was at the masked man who remained calmly seated in the chair, sipping tea.
As a businesswoman, Xia Bingyun naturally had discerning eyes.
She immediately sensed that the man before her was definitely an untouchable, lofty figure with an astonishing background.
That calm indifference, looking down upon millions of beings—such an aura couldn't be casually imitated.
"Sister Bingyun!"
Seeing Xia Bingyun enter, Xia Chuqing rushed into her arms like a swallow returning to its nest.
"I'm glad you're safe. Next time, I won't let you go out," Xia Bingyun rubbed Xia Chuqing's little head, her beautiful eyes showing a hint of doting affection.
However, she was puzzled about how the people from the Evil Pit knew Xia Chuqing's travel route.
Her route to collect resources in the Chaotic Star Sea should only have been known to people in the Merchant Alliance.
"Sister Bingyun, it was this big brother who saved me," Xia Chuqing said, raising her little face.
Seeing this, Xia Bingyun slightly bowed to Jun Xiaoyao and said, "Bingyun thanks you, sir, for rescuing my sister."
"It was a trivial matter, no need for thanks," Jun Xiaoyao remained seated in his chair, taking a sip of tea as he spoke.
This caused Xia Bingyun to show a trace of surprise in her eyes.
Other men who met her were all extremely cautious, afraid of offending her or making her unhappy.
Yet this man remained calm and composed, not even bothering to rise from his chair, let alone return her bow.
In other words, he didn't view Xia Bingyun as someone of equal status.
Xia Bingyun wasn't angry; instead, she became more certain that the man before her definitely had an astonishing background.
What Xia Bingyun didn't know was that behind the mask, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes also contained a hint of surprise.
"That aura, could it be..." Jun Xiaoyao pondered silently.
He sensed an aura from Xia Bingyun.
An aura that seemed somewhat familiar to him.
"Emperor-grade weapon, Cornucopia, could it be..." Jun Xiaoyao seemed to realize something, his eyes brightening slightly.
Searching far and wide only to find it without effort.
The corner of his mouth revealed a faint smile, and his intention to win over Xia Bingyun and the Xia family became more determined.
"Since you saved my sister, you can name any reward, and our Xia family should be able to satisfy it," said Xia Bingyun.
Xia Bingyun maintained her proper demeanor, showing no dissatisfaction with Jun Xiaoyao's attitude.
This temperament secretly earned Jun Xiaoyao's approval.
She would indeed make a good steward.
"In that case, I won't be polite. I want you..."
Jun Xiaoyao paused.
Everyone around was stunned.
He wants Xia Bingyun?
Goodness, this wasn't just wanting to eat a peach.
This was wanting to own the entire peach orchard!
The Xia family elders were also shocked.
Although they indeed wanted to recruit Jun Xiaoyao, directly asking for their eldest daughter seemed too abrupt.
Feng Xiaotian revealed a cold smile.
Even he couldn't win over this rich beauty, how could this masked man possibly succeed?
Moreover, such a direct approach was simply rude to a lady.
However, to Feng Xiaotian's and everyone's surprise, Xia Bingyun still showed no sign of annoyance.
She was about to say something when Jun Xiaoyao continued, "I want something you possess."
This left everyone quite surprised.
Couldn't he have said that in one sentence?
Xia Bingyun covered her mouth and smiled, "You're quite humorous, sir. What do you want from me?"
Jun Xiaoyao tapped his fingers on the armrest of his chair and said calmly, "This place isn't suitable. Let's find a quiet place to talk privately."
Jun Xiaoyao had already made his calculations.
Xia Bingyun was a fat sheep, and he couldn't let her go without getting something substantial in return for saving Xia Chuqing.
At this point, Feng Xiaotian couldn't sit still anymore.
A man and woman alone in a quiet place for a private chat—what could they possibly discuss?
"Brother, you're going too far. Not to mention anything else, just the mask you wear makes people question your background," said Feng Xiaotian righteously, appearing to be concerned for Xia Bingyun.
"What business is it of yours?" Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly, finding it somewhat amusing.
Feng Xiaotian's eyes flashed, and in the next moment, his figure transformed into a gust of wind, instantly reaching Jun Xiaoyao and grabbing the ghost mask from his face.
He wanted to know who this person was who dared to flirt with Xia Bingyun while hiding his identity.
Jun Xiaoyao didn't react at all; after all, he no longer needed to conceal anything now.
As the mask was removed, a face of unparalleled handsomeness, clear and otherworldly, like an immortal in exile, appeared before everyone's eyes.
When they saw this face, all the men present were stunned, shocked, and astounded.
The women were breathless, dazed, and drooling.
Someone exclaimed in a startled voice, "It's the Divine Son of the Jun family, it's really him!"
