Chapter 382: Olive Branch

"Guan Lao, don't stand, everyone is not an outsider, sit down. ”

After sitting down, Qiu Yannan looked at Jiang Lai with interest and said, "Little brother, I heard Guan Lao say, you are also a powerhouse in the Holy Realm? ”

Jiang Lai smiled, "Mr. Qiu said that it was a joke, my little ability is nothing, as far as I know, at my age, there are still people who have broken through to the peak saint realm, compared to them, I am nothing at all." ”

Li Hongbei on the side nodded, "I've heard of this, it seems that the second young lady of the Shang family, the talent of the heavens, has reached the peak of the Saint Realm at a young age, with her talent, I believe that she will be able to break through the Divine Realm soon." We are all old, and now we are young people. ”

Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at his senior disciple, "Tang Shan, you have to ask Mr. Jiang for advice in the future." ”

"Yes, Master. Tang Shan responded obediently, her beautiful eyes were full of brilliance, and she seemed to be very interested in Jiang Lai.

Seeing this scene in Song Chongwen's eyes, his heart suddenly felt a little unhappy. He is also a young man with good talents, but compared with Jiang Lai's perversion, he is still far behind, and he is naturally jealous in his heart. What's more important is that he and Tang Shan can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, they have always been in love with her, and seeing that she has a good impression of other men, how can he be comfortable.

A few years ago, his master gave him a double cultivation method, and at that time, he immediately thought of Tang Shan, if the two of them double cultivated, not only could they grow their cultivation rapidly, but more importantly, Tang Shan would become his woman, which could be described as killing two birds with one stone.

However, what disappointed him was that when he made this request to Tang Shan, he was rejected by the other party, which made him suffer a lot of blows. Therefore, in recent years, he has been cultivating hard, hoping to make Tang Shan look at him.

The hard work paid off, and now he has broken through the half-saint realm, and he has faintly touched the threshold of the small saint realm. He originally thought that this time he would follow his master to participate in the Daomen exchange meeting, and he would show his style, but who knew that a Jiang Lai would appear, and the other party was not only the same age as him, but also a genuine Saint Realm powerhouse, which made his years of dedication and hard work come to naught.

"Mr. Li, you are too exalted to me, I dare not ask for advice, you should learn from each other. ”

Hearing this, Li Hongbei smiled with satisfaction: "You are a good young man, not arrogant or arrogant, there are not many young people like you who know how to be modest." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw that the door of the box was pushed open, and then a man walked in quickly and whispered a few words in the ears of Li Hongbei and Qiu Yannan.

I don't know what the man said, but the faces of the two suddenly changed significantly.

"Two, what's wrong?"

Seeing Guan Qingfei asking, Qiu Yannan said helplessly: "It's someone from the Xu family's monk family, they want to meet us." ”

"They have been trying to win us over, and we have clearly refused, but they still don't give up. Li Hongbei snorted lightly, "I didn't expect them to be so well-informed, we just arrived last night, and they came to the door so quickly." ”

"In that case, should we avoid it?" As he spoke, Guan Qingfei and Jiang Lai made a gesture and prepared to get up and leave.

Li Hongbei hurriedly pressed his hand, "Guan Lao, Mr. Jiang, you sit, you are the guests, how can there be any reason to let you leave." Since the people from the Xu family and the monk's family are here, we can't avoid it. ”

As he spoke, he gestured to the man, "Go and ask them to come up." ”

"Yes. The man nodded, and immediately pushed the door and walked out.

After a while, the man turned back again, followed by two people, one of whom was also Jiang Lai's old acquaintance, Shang Cong. When they were in Jiangzhou, the two dealt with each other a lot. As for the other middle-aged man, Jiang looked very faced, and he had seen it before. However, this person has some similarities with Xu Dong's appearance, and he must also be from the Xu family.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Qiu, long time no see. The two entered the box and greeted each other very politely.

Seeing the person coming, Li Hongbei and Qiu Yannan seemed to be a little surprised, and they didn't dare to hold it up, so they stood up from their seats one after another, "I didn't expect it to be Mr. Shang, what kind of wind actually blew you here today." ”

Shang Cong said with a smile: "The Shang family sent a lot of people to invite the two of them a few times ago, but unfortunately they were all refused, I think it may be that our sincerity is not enough, so this time our family master specially explained, we must show our sincerity." ”

"Mr. Shang, don't say that, we have already felt the sincerity of your Shang family, but our brothers are used to being idle and don't like to be restrained. After a pause, Qiu Yannan turned his eyes and looked at the man beside Shang Cong, "This friend doesn't seem to have seen it, so I don't know what to call it?"

"My name is Xu Zhi, and I am the second brother of the head of the Xu family. ”

Seeing that the other party reported his identity, Li Hongbei and Qiu Yannan exchanged a look, and it was difficult to hide their surprise, they couldn't imagine that the Xu family would send a person with such status to come as a lobbyist.

In the past, the subordinates of the two families came to look for them, and they naturally didn't need to say anything polite, but the two people in front of them were not simple, one was a strong person in the holy realm of the Shang family, and the other was not clear about the cultivation realm, but just by virtue of his identity, he did not dare to be underestimated.

Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, even if they wanted to refuse, they had to pay attention to their words, so as not to offend these two Dao forces.

Li Hongbei pondered for a while, and then slowly spoke: "Mr. Shang, Mr. Xu, I know very well what you mean, but my brothers still like to live freely, so I understand your kindness, and if there is a chance in the future, our brothers will definitely come to apologize." ”

Hearing this, Shang Cong waved his hand and said, "Brother Li, don't be in a hurry to refuse, I know that you have no intention of participating in the disputes between the major forces, but this time is different from the past, I hope you can think about it." In addition, our family master would like to invite you two to come and sit down, and he would like to talk to you in person. ”

"This ......"

Qiu Yannan opened his mouth and was about to refuse, but at this moment, he heard a discordant voice suddenly sound, "Shang Cong, your Shang family is too annoying, everyone has said that they are not interested, why should you be strong." Okay, we still have to drink tea, and we don't have time to entertain you, so you better hurry up. ”

As soon as these words came out, Shang Cong's face suddenly changed. Not only him, but everyone else present was stunned, looking at Jiang Lai with a strange expression, no one thought that he would dare to talk to the people of the Shang family in such a tone.
