The King of Curses

Chapter 297 Banquet Opening

Cen Dongsheng shook his head. He was clearly immersed in his elder sister's charming and attractive temperament just now, but now he was unconsciously obsessed with Qingyan's beauty.

He found out that he was indeed a philandering man, a complete scumbag who couldn't even deceive himself and fell in love with every woman he met.

With such complicated feelings, he held the beautiful girl in the dress in his arms with his hands, but subconsciously tightened them.

The dress is made of smooth material, feels wonderful, and fits the slender waist; the design, as bright and pure white as moonlight, brings out the pure temperament of my sister to the extreme.

Yi Qingyan's improvement in dressing was quite rapid. From being unkempt at the beginning to gradually awakening her feminine side, in just a few months, she had become very good at dressing up.

But it was the first time that Cen Dongsheng saw her wearing a formal dress, and his impression could only be described as "stunning".

Not long after the elder sister became acquainted with Cen Dongsheng, she came to visit him in a formal dress. However, Qingyan's younger sister would obviously not be so proactive. She would definitely choose the right time before she would be willing to show her unusual side.

But slowness has its advantages.

When Cen Dongsheng saw a little girl in pure white in the corridor just now, his eyes widened; the hug that he was used to, made the man feel excited again at this moment, and he felt like he was hugging an angel who had fallen to the earth.

To put it more bluntly, Yi Qingyan now easily aroused the passionate desire that he had tried hard to hide deep in his heart and stimulated his instincts.

He wanted to love her well as a brother, and wanted to protect her as a man;
as well as……

He wanted to tear her dress apart roughly and completely defile this pure whiteness.

Moreover, Cen Dongsheng knew very well that the girl in his arms would not resist, which made it even more difficult for him to control his impulse.

"……call."

The man began to take deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.

As a result, his nose was filled with the fragrance emanating from the beautiful black hair, which penetrated into his heart and made him even more eager.

As the two of them were hugging each other affectionately, his physiological reaction was quickly noticed by his sister.

"what."

Yi Qingyan's face flushed with joy and she exclaimed softly.

She did not leave her brother's arms, but when she looked up at the man, there was inevitably a bit of weirdness and disbelief in her eyes.

"I, I obviously didn't mean that. I just wore a pretty dress. It wasn't revealing, and I wasn't seducing. Brother... would I get horny?"

"What do you mean by estrus? That's too rude."

Cen Dongsheng coughed dryly. In order to save face in front of his sister, he successfully suppressed his desire and quickly started talking about other topics.

"Qingyan, you finally came. I thought you wouldn't come."

"Of course I'm coming. This time you and that woman appeared in public together, and I heard that one of you will be a guest speaker? If nothing unexpected happens, from now on, your relationship will be known to the whole world."

"..."

Cen Dongsheng hadn't thought of this, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be the case.

"How can I allow this to happen? At least..."

Yi Qingyan subconsciously hugged her arms tightly, and the man realized in a trance that the little girl was no longer "small".

Yes, high school is indeed a period of rapid growth and development for a person, a stage of development towards a mature adult.

“I don’t want to be left behind.”

she muttered.

Cen Dongsheng came back to his senses, reached out and touched the girl's black hair, and said with a smile:

"I won't miss it. I just didn't expect you to care about such trivial matters."

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either."

Yi Qingyan said in a low voice.

"It seems that my jealousy is even stronger than I thought. Or maybe my brother has too much influence on me."

Influence? That’s true.

King Pingdeng Yi Qingyan was the only "ancestor" he had seen in person in his previous life, so he did have a special feeling for her.

There is a big difference between the unrestrained and superior top powerhouse in the previous life and the current sister Qingyan, and even her in the future that can be seen with the naked eye.

But did the King of Equality live a happy life in her previous life? She was certainly freer then, but perhaps she suffered from loneliness, otherwise she would not have fallen into madness so easily.

Maybe it was just his own selfishness, because he was used to the state of being "blood-related" to Yi Qingyan and couldn't give up this relationship. But Cen Dongsheng thought so sincerely: he felt that Yi Qingyan was better now, whether for him, for the world, or... for herself.

"Brother, there is something you haven't told me yet."

Yi Qingyan could not have imagined that in just a short while, her brother's thoughts had already run thousands miles away. She only cared about what was happening in front of her.

"what?"

"Don't you understand, brother?"

Yi Qingyan pouted her moist lips.

"If that woman were here, you would not forget it, would you?"

"...!"

Cen Dongsheng reacted quickly. After all, he had been trained by his elder sister, so he was no longer completely ignorant of girls' thoughts.

"you look pretty today."

The man praised with a smile.

This is absolutely the truth. He was stunned when his sister appeared this time.

"hehe."

Yi Qingyan laughed happily. Her laughter sounded like the gurgling sound of a brook after it thawed in spring, so pleasant and melodious.

"I came here right after I changed my clothes, just to let you see it first~"

In this way, the brother and sister maintained the hugging posture and spent some warm time together until a woman's voice was heard not far away.

"Alright, both of you."

The elder sister was standing not far away and reminded with a smile.

"We should head to the lobby now."

*
Gorgeous and dazzling lights enveloped the entire hall.

The gilt water from the crystal chandelier was flowing down the champagne tower; the band was playing in a corner area behind the marble columns, and waiters in tuxedos were walking among the guests carrying silver trays.

The wine glasses were clinking and the lights were bright.

Although the banquet was held together, Meng Huafan, as the owner of the Mirage, would only appear in one place: the banquet hall on the VIP floor.

The dome of the main banquet hall is a whole wall of gradient colored glass, which is now being dyed by the sunset and the rising moon in the night. When the banquet started, the fluorescent jellyfish lights embedded in the colored glass woke up, began to swim in the wall, and cast blue spots of light on the shoulders of the guests.

Even among this group of spell-forbidden masters who are qualified to enter the VIP level, there is still a distinction between "high and low", and an invisible, transparent wall is erected between the two:
For example, Jiang Yunmei and Song Yutang, who were on the second floor of the banquet hall's circular structure, overlooking the area below, could be considered distinguished guests among distinguished guests.

"It's really lively."

Jiang Yunmei held her chin with one hand and shook the wine glass in her hand boredly.

"All the high-level spell masters in this world have gathered together. I wonder if there are any powerful masters among them? Even if they are not special-level spell masters, there may be some like you and me..."

Song Yutang's eyes swept across the faces of strangers, revealing anticipation and excitement, which made the girl next to her want to complain, but she finally held back. Jiang Yunmei had noticed that the school girl was active and outgoing, or in other words, she had a "battle maniac" side, which might be even more serious than Teacher Cen.

The reason why Yu Tang risked her life to obtain the Kunwu Sword during the trip to the Ghost Market was not only because she wanted to keep up with her companions, but also because of her innate personality of not admitting defeat.

"What do you think?"

Facing the clear gaze of the schoolmate, Jiang Yunmei replied:

"I see with my eyes."

"what?"

Song Yutang blinked, a little confused.

"Nothing, I just used my 'ability' to observe the area, and I think you might be disappointed."

Jiang Yunmei replied.

"Yutang, you should realize that you have become one of the top masters. If you must look for a powerful enemy, you might as well go find Miss An and Miss Yi."

"Those two are a little..."

Song Yutang looked embarrassed.

"A fight where you can only flee is not fun at all."

You really thought about fighting.

Jiang Yunmei sighed and said:
"Then you can consider fighting with Teacher Cen."

"Well, I was wondering if I should ask him for help..."

As they were chatting, someone came up and saw the two young and beautiful female spell-binding masters and wanted to come over to chat with them, but Jiang Yunmei just glanced at them, and the other person stopped and looked blank.

Jiang Yunmei used her ability to make the two people disappear from her sight.

"Thank you."

"Nothing, it's better than the ending where you kick someone's head off or something."

"Ahahaha... I should, not be that violent, right?"

At this moment, there was a small commotion and noise at the end of the corridor, and the guests looked up and whispered to each other.

Jiang Yunmei looked in that direction and saw Cen Dongsheng coming out of the door with his girlfriend and sister.

"What an enviable man."

Jiang Yunmei put the cup down.

Standing on his right was a charming woman in a burgundy dress, and on his left was a pure and charming girl in a moon-white dress.

The red rose and the white rose, each with its own fragrance, are extremely beautiful, but they only bloom around him.

Even if you don't know the identities of the woman and the girl, you will feel jealous at this moment; and if you know, you may just find it incredible.

Why would such a noble and powerful woman be willing to stay around the same man... I'm afraid there is no other answer except love.

“It’s like being the protagonist of this world.”

Jiang Yunmei complained in a low voice, and then saw that her schoolmate was also staring at the man without blinking. She felt helpless and held her forehead.

*
Cen Dongsheng, who enjoyed the blessing of having many wives, soon became the focus of the curse masters present.

But no one came forward to talk to them, and even if someone did, they were quickly stopped by their companions.

An Zhizhen's reputation in the world of curse masters is already well-known; in comparison, Yi Qingyan is more low-key, but those who recognize her will only be more in awe of her, after all, she is the one who has killed a "kind" with her own hands, a monster among monsters.

The man looked around and didn't see any familiar faces. Wan Dugu, Meng Huafan, Zhang Shidao... none of them had arrived yet, and there were no other noteworthy candidates, so he walked towards his companions.

……

"You two, are you feeling okay?"

Cen Dongsheng walked up to his teammates.

"Master!"

Song Yutang greeted him happily.

"Hey, why is Teacher Cen here? Aren't you going to continue to accompany the sisters?"

Senior Sister Jiang's tone was sarcastic. She poured herself a glass of wine and prepared to drink it all.

"We are just teammates. It's okay to be apart from time to time. No one will feel lonely. Don't take it too seriously."

"…Do you care?"

"Really not." Jiang Yunmei said, "I'm just worried that the two people around you might have objections to you choosing this time to come and look for someone."

As she spoke, she glanced at Song Yutang secretly again and decided to control the intensity of her words.

If I really chase her away, I guess my junior will feel lonely... Well, this is for her own good.

"Don't worry, Sister Zhizhen and Qingyan won't have any objections."

Cen Dongsheng answered with a smile.

"Because the two of them will come together, the five of us can sit here and chat for a while."

"……what?"

Jiang Yunmei's fingers holding the wine glass froze.

She looked not far away and found that An Zhizhen and Yi Qingyan were really walking towards her.

One red and one white, the closer you look, the more you can feel the breathtaking beauty. But now, compared to the red rose and the white rose, Jiang Yunmei feels that they are more like the red and white evil spirits, and soon she experienced what it means to be "on pins and needles"...

*
Chen Yuan is looking everywhere for his sister's whereabouts.

Thanks to the mysterious and powerful Mr. Cen, he not only transformed from a stowaway to a formally invited guest with his own room, but he was even fortunate enough to leave the middle level and attend the banquet for VIPs.

In the crowd, the boy felt weak and lonely, out of place, and uncomfortable all over... But at the moment, he couldn't care less.

His eyes wandered from every suspicious face, trying to find the whereabouts of his sister Chen Jiu from the waiter and the band that was playing.

But everyone looked "normal".

Sister...his sister, would she be here?
Chen Yuan felt like a headless fly, probably because he was too anxious.

Of course, he also saw Cen Dongsheng upstairs and the two beauties accompanying him.

They seemed to be glowing all over. Chen Yuan had never seen such beautiful women in his life. Although there were many beautiful women in the VIP area and even the waiters looked like stars on TV, he could be said to have broadened his horizons this day; but compared with these two, they all paled in comparison.

This is indeed worthy of envy, but Chen Yuan calmed down all of a sudden because that scene was too far away from him.

For Chen Yuan, he now has only one goal in life.

Because of an accidental opportunity and luck, he broke into a colorful world he had never seen before. It was inevitable that he would be blinded for a while, but he would not forget why he boarded this ship.

At this time, Chen Yuan found that the people around him began to applaud, and the guests stood up one after another, looking in the same direction.

The boy raised his head and heard someone say, "Mr. Meng is here!"

The real protagonist finally appeared.
