Chapter 724: The City Lord's Mansion's Gathering
At night, the lights of Kunyang City are bright, the city is not depressed because of the sunset, on the contrary, it is more lively than during the day, especially the monks who have poured into the city recently, it is millions, making this Kunyang City really have a bit of a taste of the city that never sleeps.
Lin Chuan and Mu Li were already dressed neatly, compared to usual, this time they were dressed much more formally, after all, they were going to attend the party of the City Lord's Mansion, and the people who went were all young heroes from major families, so they couldn't be sloppy.
When the time was almost up, Mu Zheng took the two of them out, got into the carriage that had been prepared a long time ago, and drove towards the manor in the center of Kunyang City.
The streets were crowded with people, the carriages were not moving fast, Lin Chuan would occasionally stick his head out the window to take a look, and all of them were people, and they were basically monks, mortals were rare here.
"There may be a competition at the meeting later, you can just see it then, you don't have to really participate!" Mu Zheng said.
"Father, what is the purpose of this meeting? If we don't participate in the competition, how can we prove our strength and talent? Mu Li asked with some confusion.
"The party is just for everyone to get to know each other, as for the competition, it is a program that has been arranged a long time ago, and it is more to let the disciples of those big families show their cultivation, I have already said hello to the two of you in advance, and when the time comes, you can go directly to participate in the test of the Luohe Sect!" Mu Zheng said.
He knows the talent of his two sons, as long as they are given the opportunity, they will definitely go to the top, but now, they must keep a low profile, especially in this kind of gathering of the children of a big family, many competitions are arranged routines, not really for the competition.
"I see!" Mu Li nodded.
When they were about to arrive at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the noise gradually became quieter, they had already entered the controlled area, within this range, ordinary people were forbidden to enter, and Mu Zheng also took out an invitation card from the City Lord's Mansion, so they entered here smoothly.
Soon, though, the guards from the City Lord's Mansion came over.
"Because you have the lowest level of invitations, you can't go through the main entrance, and please follow me through the side door!" The guard who spoke was a Jindan stage monk, although he was more polite to a Yuan Infant stage monk like Mu Zheng, but he could feel that kind of lofty overlook from his eyes and tone.
Mu Zheng frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, and let the guard lead them towards the side door.
Lin Chuan lifted the beaded curtain of the carriage slightly, and his eyes fell on the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion, where several luxurious carriages were parked, just judging from the decoration, he knew that it was a member of the big family.
Lin Chuan was no stranger to these treatments, after all, he used to be the Bai Lingzi of the Lin family, the eight major families of the Fire Country, and the treatment he enjoyed in Yang'an City and even the entire Fire Country was extremely high, but at that time, he was cultivating most of the time, and he didn't have the opportunity to go out like this, let alone enjoy it.
"Don't look at it, when we join the Luohe Sect and become the core disciples of the Luohe Sect, we will also have such treatment!" Mu Li raised his hand and lowered the bead curtain, and said softly to Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan nodded, he knew that Mu Li was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable before he said this, in fact, as far as Lin Chuan was concerned, these imaginary things had no meaning at all, and he didn't care.
However, at the last moment when Mu Li put down the bead curtain, Lin Chuan caught a glimpse of a carriage with a familiar sign parked at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and his brows suddenly furrowed slightly.
"Father, who are you here at this meeting?" Lin Chuan pretended to be curious and asked.
"Most of them are the disciples of some big families in Kunyang City, such as the Wang family, the number one family here, and the family disciples of the surrounding area, and there are not a few people like us!" Mu Zheng said.
Obviously, Mu Zheng didn't know much, and since the invitation he got was the lowest level, the people naturally wouldn't tell him too much.
"What's wrong? Any questions? Mu Li saw that Lin Chuan's face seemed a little wrong, so he asked.
"Oh, it's nothing, I just want to know something about the inside first, so I don't get nervous!" Lin Chuan said with an embarrassed smile, but in his mind, there was still the symbol that flashed away.
"It is said that the people of the Luohe Sect will also participate, probably because they want to pick some people from these big families first, after all, although they are the number one sect, they must also maintain friendship with local forces, so as to maintain their influence!" Mu Zheng said.
Although the Luohe Sect is now the dominant family in the Land of Water, in order to maintain this advantage, they also need to continue to expand their sphere of influence, and this practice of bringing the children of powerful big families into the Luohe Sect is also a continuation of this influence, which is a bit similar to marriage, but the degree of closeness is not so high.
Soon, the carriage came to the side gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and Lin Chuan and the three of them got out of the carriage together, and they were allowed to enter the manor only after the guards checked and confirmed the invitation again.
The manor of the City Lord's Mansion is very large, and the meeting place is in the depths of the City Lord's Mansion, and the three of them really walked for a long time before coming to the meeting place, after all, this kind of place can't use cultivation to break through, so they can only walk over step by step.
The party was not in the room, but outside, next to a large pavilion and water pavilion, when Lin Chuan and the three of them arrived, there were already a lot of people gathered here, most of them were teenagers like Mu Li, and children as young as Lin Chuan were relatively rare.
"Don't wander around here, for the sake of the Father, go and see the steward here!" After Mu Zheng finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the center.
As soon as Mu Zheng walked away, before Mu Li and Lin Chuan could recognize the surrounding environment, several teenagers of about the same age surrounded him, "Hey, where are you from?" I'm from Sancang City, 700 miles away! My name is Liu Yang! ”
The boy seemed very enthusiastic and reported himself directly.
"Mu Li, from Yijiang City!" Mu Li said with a slight fist.
"Oh, I've heard of your city, it's small, but it's rich in spices, right?" The boy said clearly.
"That's right!" Mu Li nodded, he didn't talk much, not to mention that he obviously couldn't talk much in this environment, especially for such a young man who didn't know the details.
"It is said that the elders of the Luohe Sect will come tonight, do you think we will be selected directly!"
"Just you? It's better to save it, people only pick the children of big families, unless our talent is really outstanding, we can only see if we have the qualifications to be accepted as peripheral disciples! ”
Several teenagers said babblingly, and Mu Li listened with a smile on the side, but did not speak.
Lin Chuan, on the other hand, looked around, wanting to see if the sign he had seen before really appeared here.
The last one to tip.,Because it's emptied after the weekend.,I'm sorry! But thank you for your support!
