Among the guests seated at the banquet were Ji Mingxing's master, the Great Sun World Lord, and the Emperor, Fengming Immeasurable.
There were also many aristocrats and nobles, but notably absent was Fengming Xiao.
The bride had already been wed, so by convention, the mother's absence was rather unusual.
Yet, she did not show up.
Back in Crime City, Ling Xiao had gleaned from Feng Yingshan's words that Fengming Xiao had undergone the baptism of the Divine Phoenix Holy Light, losing all human emotions and becoming nothing more than a tool loyal to the Phoenix God Empire.
If that were the case, her absence could hardly be called abnormal.
Beyond the dignitaries, many of Ji Mingxing's friends from Jianghu were also present, young and talented individuals from various regions of the Divine Phoenix Continent and Heavenly Dragon Continent.
Each one appeared strong in cultivation, truly the cream of the crop among the younger generation.
