Chapter 339: The First Grandmaster of Jiangdong (Third Update)
The news of Xie Zhen and Wen Xiuping's deaths spread quickly, and the entire Sanfeng Town martial artists were frightened.
Xie Zhen, Wen Xiuping and Shen Lian, the three Nine Rank Great Masters, were besieged and killed, and the final result turned out to be two deaths and one escape!
In the past two days, no matter where Zhou Ran and Bai Zhijun went, the others saw them and hid away as if they had seen a plague god.
On the one hand, everyone was afraid of Bai Zhijun, who was indifferent to Zhou Ran, and it was said that she killed Xie Zhen and Wen Xiuping alone.
On the other hand, in the eyes of everyone, Zhou Ran and Bai Zhijun have become dead people, and they dare to kill the two elders of Hujimen and Danxin Palace at the same time in the Jiangdong region, and the only thing waiting for them is death.
Because of this, everyone can hide as far as they can, for fear that they will be implicated when Danxin Palace and Hujimen find Zhou Ran to settle accounts.
However, Xu Silei, a little girl, has been following Zhou Ran and Bai Zhijun, and after seeing Bai Zhijun's strength that night, she fell into irretrievable worship of Bai Zhijun.
At first, she was still in awe of Bai Zhijun, but when she found out that Bai Zhijun was respectful to Zhou Ran, and Bai Zhijun herself was not as terrible as she thought, she relied on her identity as Zhou Ran's sister-in-law and regarded Bai Zhijun as her bodyguard.
Zhou Ran didn't say anything when he saw this, with his strength, where can he use bodyguards, now there are many martial artists in Sanfeng Town, and the strength of Xu Silei's Sanpin martial artists is indeed a little dangerous, and it is reassuring to have Bai Zhijun to protect him.
Unexpectedly, in the past few days, the people of the Huji Gate Danxin Palace and the Lingnan Shen family have not come to the door to seek revenge.
He didn't think that the other party had confessed, on the contrary, they had not done anything for so long, and it was obvious that there was an even more terrifying storm waiting for him.
But for him now, he is confident that no matter what kind of trouble, he can destroy it with one sword!
What made Zhou Ran a little disappointed was that until the end of the exchange meeting, no one came to the door to tell him the news about the Divine Soul Grass, perhaps because he was afraid of the revenge of Hujimen and other forces.
Finally, the martial arts exchange meeting ended, and some weak martial artists had already taken the lead in leaving Sanfeng Town, because what happened next was destined to have nothing to do with them.
And there is a large number of warriors who stay to participate in the next feast, that is, Old Man Xu's 80th birthday banquet!
Because of this birthday banquet, people from all sides have long been moved.
The reason why the Lingbei Xu family advanced the time of the exchange meeting was to take advantage of this birthday banquet to show the strength of the Lingbei Xu family to the Jiangdong region, especially to deter many forces in Lingbei.
And some of the martial artists who stayed, some wanted to take advantage of the birthday banquet to get closer to the forces of all parties, and some wanted to take the opportunity to join the Xu family in Lingbei.
At this point, a big family like the Lingbei Xu family is obviously much better, of course, if you want to join the Lingbei Xu family, you must have quite outstanding talent and strength.
It was night, and Sanfeng Town was lit up everywhere, creating a festive atmosphere.
In the courtyard of the Xu family's house, there are many tables and chairs, and there are a hundred seats!
It sounds like a lot, but in fact, there are very few people who are qualified to enter the Xu family's mansion to personally congratulate Old Man Xu on his birthday.
The Xu family was already prosperous, and with the fact that Danxin Palace, Huji Gate, and the Shen family's forces were going to come to celebrate their birthdays, it was enough to occupy more than half of the seats in the house.
The rest who are qualified to sit in the house must also be a giant in the Jiangdong region.
As for the others, they can only sit outside the house, and they are not even qualified to meet Old Man Xu! Being able to beg for a glass of wine at Old Man Xu's birthday banquet is already something that can be blown out for a year.
In the world of cultivators, the strong have always been respected!
When Zhou Ran arrived with Bai Zhijun and Xu Silei, there were already many people outside.
Seeing Zhou Ran and the three of them, everyone outside the house looked sideways, after all, Zhou Ran and the three of them have been people of the year in the past two days.
"He's still alive?"
"The person who offended Huji Gate and Danxin Palace at the same time can still live until now, he is the first!"
"Maybe Hujimen and Danxin Palace are afraid of the Xu family, it is said that the Lingbei Xu family has the heart to establish the status of Jiangdong's overlord in one fell swoop at this birthday banquet!"
"The Lingbei Xu family can't even compare to the Lingnan Shen family, not to mention the Danxin Palace, which has a transcendent status, why did it become the overlord of Jiangdong?"
Everyone looked at Zhou Ran and the three of them were discussing, and they were all surprised that Zhou Ran was still alive to attend Old Man Xu's birthday banquet.
As for the fact that some people say that the Xu family is hegemonic, no one cares about it at all, and the Shen family also said that they want to be hegemonic before, can it be realized?
The forces in the Jiangdong region are mixed, and no one is convinced by anyone. If you want to become the overlord of the entire Koto region, you must have the strength to convince everyone.
And some of the Xu family's side disciples sitting outside the mansion saw Xu Silei who was following Zhou Ran, and they were sympathetic.
Zhou Ran provoked Hujimen, Danxin Palace and the Lingnan Shen family at the same time, it is self-evident what the fate will be, the three parties are not doing it now because they are afraid of the Lingbei Shen family, once the birthday banquet is over, Zhou Ran will definitely die without a place to be buried, and in order to calm the anger of the three parties, Xu Silei herself will also be implicated.
Xu Silei didn't bother to pay attention to the gazes of the other side disciples, and followed Zhou Ran closely behind and walked towards the mansion.
Bai Zhijun has such a terrifying record, so he naturally received an invitation from the Xu family and was qualified to enter the mansion to congratulate Old Man Xu on his birthday.
Zhou Ran at this moment seems to be one of her entourages.
After entering the mansion, Xu Silei was a little excited, there were too many collateral lines of the Xu family, if it weren't for Bai Zhijun and Zhou Ran, she, a collateral descendant of the family, would not have the qualifications to come here at all.
Compared with the bustle outside, the courtyard is much more deserted, and the people from Hujimen, the Shen family and Danxin Palace have not yet arrived, and the people of the Xu family will definitely make the finale.
Except for the housekeeper Xu An, there were only a dozen or so martial artists in the mansion who exuded powerful spiritual power fluctuations.
Zhou Ran took a look and found that they were all master-level martial artists, and even the grandmaster martial artists had four people, and they could be invited here, naturally because the Xu family took a fancy to their talents and wanted to recruit them into the Xu family.
At this moment, the housekeeper Xu An is enthusiastically soliciting everyone.
At this time, there was a sudden exclamation outside.
"It's Jiang Canglan!"
"The first person of the Jiangdong Grandmaster!"
"Why is he here?"
"He said before that he would never go out of the mountain until he found his way, does he say that he has found his way?"
Most of the cultivators' ears and eyes were different from ordinary people, and the conversation of the people outside the courtyard was naturally heard clearly by the many martial artists in the courtyard.
Hearing Jiang Canglan's words, many martial artists who were still talking stood up one after another, and looked in shock in the direction where the voice came from.
The influence of the word Jiang Canglan is far greater than that of Xie Zhenwen Xiuping and others, and his reputation in the Jiangdong region can even be tied with the level of the head of the Xu family!
Today, when cultivation resources are scarce, Jiang Canglan has achieved the position of the Nine Rank Grand Master as a casual cultivator, and even after becoming the Nine Rank Grand Master, he personally made an appointment with Xie Zhenwen and the others to cultivate others, all of which ended with him winning!
Since then, he has become famous in Jiangdong in one fell swoop, and is known as the first person in Jiangdong Grandmaster!
And after he defeated everyone, he announced that he would find his true meaning of the Heavenly Dao, and he would never go out of the mountain without enlightenment, and then disappeared.
No one expected that he would appear at the Xu family's birthday banquet today.
At this time, the sound of breaking the air came, and a figure suddenly appeared on the courtyard wall, and then he lightly clicked, and the whole person had fallen lightly in the courtyard, and there was no sound when he fell to the ground.
He was dressed in sackcloth, his hair was messy, and his beard should have been unkempt for quite some time, and he looked a little sloppy, but no one dared to underestimate him.
The many warriors who were originally sitting together looked at him respectfully, their eyes full of awe.
Jiang Canglan ignored everyone, he looked at Xu An with an indifferent expression and asked, "Here, can I have a seat?"
