Secular Immortal of the Nine Realms Chapter 208: Banquet

Everyone in the Ji Clan had grim looks. Only those from Fang Chen’s group looked unfazed.

Ji Junhua first looked at Fang Chen, followed by Ji Congyun, before saying with a suppressed voice, “Father, that banquet is a trap.”

This matter was so severe that there was no room for Ji Lengxing and the others from the younger generation to butt in. They could only obediently stand by the side and listen to the discussion.

Those who were from the same generation as Ji Junhua traded worried looks.

“Young master Fang, what do you think?” Ji Congyun asked.

“We’ll naturally know once we’re at the banquet,” Fang Chen replied.

Once we’re at the banquet?

The crowd frowned, but at the same time, they found themselves calmed by Fang Chen’s nonchalant attitude. He made it seem as if this matter wasn’t as big of a deal as they thought.

Just then, a Ji Clan’s servant rushed in and reported, “There’s news from the imperial palace! Fourth Princess Han Qin has returned, and she’s accompanied by Lin Li, the son of the White Tiger Empire’s great general, and two grade-6 state’s immortals.”

Two grade-6 state’s immortals!

The crowd felt goosebumps all over their bodies. They hadn’t thought that Chillwater’s emperor would be capable of bringing in such help.

Ji Congyun sighed.

This was the reason the Ji Clan had never been able to truly gain the upper hand over the imperial family. In fact, if not for Fang Chen’s appearance, they would have never stood a chance at all. They would have to live their lives content with being an eternal number two.

The servant took his leave.

Ji Congyun turned to Fang Chen with worried eyes. “Young master Fang, the White Tiger Empire has brought a grade-6 state’s immortals into this matter. I fear that it might no longer be possible to accomplish what we have previously discussed.”

“Just do your part. Leave the rest to me,” Fang Chen replied. “Not all immortals are equal. There is no lack of dead immortals in the world.”

The crowd felt chilled. Only Fang Chen would dare to make light of an immortal’s life.
