Chapter 701: Yin Ji: Hosting a Banquet and Entertaining Guests!
Chapter 701: Yin Ji: Hosting a Banquet and Entertaining Guests!
If Jin Banhua had advised Yin Ji in his role as a profligate, she would have slapped him to death.
But now, after exchanging over a hundred moves with Yin Ji, he was a top expert who was in no way inferior to her, and she listened to his words.
When a top expert who was no less skilled than herself praised her and showed respect for her unconventional interests, it was impossible for Yin Ji to not be moved.
Yin Ji looked at Jin Banhua.
Although Jin Banhua wore a smile, his expression was serious.
"Are you serious?"
As soon as Yin Ji asked, she realized she had asked the wrong question.
Whether Jin Banhua was serious or not, he wouldn't deny it at this moment.
Then, Yin Ji thought of how Jin Banhua, despite his formidable martial arts, outwardly portrayed himself as a wealthy profligate, a cunning and deceitful person, and had even deceived that top-notch black-cloaked swordsman.
From the reactions of his friends, it was clear that they hadn't expected Jin Banhua to possess such high-level martial arts.
Finally, Yin Ji realized that Jin Banhua was also someone who did as he pleased, unconcerned with others' opinions.
Her gaze towards Jin Banhua revealed admiration and even a hint of envy.
Although she was much older than him, her mentality wasn't as good as his.
"Of course, I'm serious," Jin Banhua said solemnly. "Many of my friends, and even the masters who taught me martial arts, have very unique hobbies."
"As the saying goes, uncommon people do uncommon deeds. If one isn't unique, how can they achieve extraordinary martial arts?" Jin Banhua explained.
Yin Ji's eyes revealed a hint of curiosity, and she asked, "What kind of hobbies do they have?"
Her hands didn't stop, but her palm strength and palm wind had lessened, and compared to the life-and-death battle, their current state was more like a formal exchange.
"There's a person who, after receiving a life-saving favor from someone, gave away his ancestral mansion, dozens of shops, and his estates outside the city. He even gave away his cousin, with whom he was in love, after the benefactor revealed himself," Jin Banhua said.
Yin Ji was stunned, "Are there such people in this world?"
"There's also a man who, after falling in love with a woman, revered her and didn't dare touch a single hair on her. He allowed the woman to drug him with mind control poison and go out to find other men, and even when he realized the truth, he still refused to believe it and broke off friendships for her," Jin Banhua continued.
Yin Ji's eyes widened, "Was he a coward?"
"No, his sword-drawing technique is unmatched in the world. If that black-cloaked man had faced him in a sword-drawing contest, he would have died in one move," Jin Banhua said.
Yin Ji initially didn't want to believe it, but Jin Banhua's words made her have to accept them.
"There's also a man of noble birth, with peerless sword skills, who has no more pursuits in life. His favorite thing to do is to let beautiful women tie him up and whip him hard, seeking stimulation through pain," Jin Banhua added.
Yin Ji was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
"There's also a young master from a noble family who became famous at a young age and had wealth at his fingertips. Surrounded by beautiful women, he felt empty and left home, changing his name and living incognito as a manure picker. He even ate a steamed bun soaked in manure water after being bullied by street thugs," Jin Banhua spoke of another person.
Yin Ji couldn't help but grimace; just thinking about it made her feel disgusted. She would rather die than do such a thing.
"So, you see, you're not an oddity; you're exceptional. Take Chu Liuxiang, for example. He's not only a top martial artist but also renowned. He could make money anywhere, yet he chooses to engage in theft and bully ordinary people. Isn't that sick?" Jin Banhua smiled.
Yin Ji couldn't help but laugh, "You, for example."
Jin Banhua glared, "I'm a normal person!"
Yin Ji couldn't hold back her laughter any longer and burst out laughing.
Her face was stern and imposing, and her laughter was bold and robust.
Her laughter drowned out the palm winds and sword cries, rolling out and echoing through the valley, causing the entire Divine Lake to ripple slightly.
Her laughter was filled with joy, and anyone who heard it could tell that the person laughing was feeling carefree and happy.
"It's over, Jin Banhua is going to lose!" Song Tian'er exclaimed anxiously, "Yin Ji is laughing so happily, Jin Banhua won't be able to hold on!"
At this moment, in the battlefield between Jin Banhua and Yin Ji, mist enveloped the area, cold air permeated, and palm winds and sword auras were unleashed freely. Even Chu Liuxiang could barely make out the details, let alone the others.
"That's not right." Chu Liuxiang shook his head, "The sword cries haven't weakened, and the cold air remains. Jin Banhua hasn't fallen into a disadvantage. Her martial arts are extraordinary and not easily defeated."
"Then why is Yin Ji laughing?" Hei Zhenzhuang asked.
"I don't know either." Chu Liuxiang furrowed his brows.
He was well aware of Yin Ji's current situation— her daughter was dead, her man was dead, and they were killed by her beloved disciple. She was in a state of utter despair and anger.
How could she be laughing so happily in such a state?
Could it be that she couldn't vent her anger and went crazy?
Chu Liuxiang's heart trembled at the thought of facing a crazy Jellyfish. Who in the world could stand against her?
But the Divine Water Palace disciples didn't have this worry.
Apart from some girls who had just developed a liking for Jin Banhua and showed slight concern, the other Divine Water Palace disciples breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and regained their confidence.
Gong Nanyan even raised her lips, her face glowing red, looking even more enchanting.
In the battlefield, Yin Ji's laughter stopped as she looked at Jin Banhua with admiration), "It's a pity I didn't meet you earlier."
"Earlier, I was idling around in the capital." Jin Banhua blinked and pointed at Gong Nanyan outside, "Also, I think Palace Lady suits you better."
Yin Ji smiled in realization, "What are you thinking? I could be your mother!"
Jin Banhua sighed in relief and said with a sheepish smile, "Then can I still stay at the Divine Water Palace and chat with the beautiful ladies here?"
Yin Ji feigned anger, "Don't even think about it! They are all my forbidden consorts. Go outside and find your own food, don't covet what's mine!"
"Your taste is excellent. Anyone who catches your eye is a beauty beyond compare." Jin Banhua laughed.
Yin Ji felt proud, but the mention of 'beauty beyond compare' also reminded her of Heroine and Situ Jing, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.
Yin Ji sighed, "Thank you. I feel much better now. Your judgment is not entirely accurate, but it's close. Chu Liuxiang already knows about my past. If you're curious, go ask him."
As her words fell, Yin Ji no longer had the intention to fight. She suddenly withdrew her hand and quickly retreated.
She fought when she said she would, and retreated when she said she would. Her martial arts skills were truly awe-inspiring.
The palm winds ceased, the sword cries faded, the mist dispersed, and the cold air dissipated.
The crowd focused their gaze and saw Yin Ji and Jin Banhua standing less than a zhang apart, facing each other.
Yin Ji's face was filled with a murderous aura, while Jin Banhua raised her eyebrows and smiled, making it hard to tell who was winning.
The next moment, a faint smile appeared on Yin Ji's lips, "Set up a banquet! Entertain the guests!"
