A look of disdain flashed across Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan's faces.
At that moment, both of them simultaneously activated their Dharmic power, dissipating the invisible pressure that weighed upon them.
This unexpected display of strength surprised Pei Daoqi.
Soon after, Pei Daoqi shifted his attention away from Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and walked to his seat.
"Heh, who would have thought, after all these years, Pei Daoqi remains as unreasonable and overbearing as ever," remarked Perfected Lord Star Sea, his voice reaching Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan's ears.
This comment led the couple to realize that Perfected Lord Star Sea must have had his fair share of grievances with Pei Daoqi in the past.
Subsequently, several other Nascent Soul Perfected Lords arrived, none of whom were familiar to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
