Chapter 26 The Li Family's Birthday Banquet
Deakin East,
Li Fu,
At this time, the entire Li Mansion was lit up everywhere, people and carriages came and went in front of the door, two guards in brand new clothes stood at the door to receive the guests who arrived one by one, and there were maids who led the way and the guide who signed up after entering the door.
The entire Li Mansion was filled with laughter and laughter, and it looked very lively.
Although there are a lot of rich people, there is not a single commoner, and occasionally a passing person will be immediately driven away by the Li family guards patrolling outside, and if he walks slowly, he will be kicked.
"The Ye family in Decan City, the Ye clan leader has arrived!"
"Deakin City Wangshunge Hotel, Boss Wang has arrived!"
"Deakin City Qingfeng Building, Boss Duan has arrived!"
"Dican City Lord's Mansion, Xia City Lord has arrived!"
As the names of the guests were announced, the attendants of the Li Mansion gradually became busy, especially when the Xia City Lord entered the door, they shouted very hard, and at the same time, a touch of pride involuntarily appeared on their faces.
The head of his own family celebrated his birthday, and even the city lord came to admire his face, which was enough to see how heavy the Li family was in Deakon City.
And as a member of the Li family, how can he not be proud?
The city lord of Xia is named Xia Mingfeng, because he only has one daughter under his knees, he doesn't look very old, he is low, and he has a big belly, although he feels a little greasy, but a pair of energetic eyes make him look as simple as he seems.
After all, being able to sit in the position of the lord of a city is not just something that can be done by relying on his soul power of more than sixty levels.
"City Lord Xia, please come inside."
The guide bent down and bowed his head, and his attitude was extremely respectful.
"I said that your Li family is really a big shelf, my father has been here for so long and you have not seen any of the principals of the Li family, but let you be the lowest waiter to receive it, it seems that the Li family has hardened its wings, and it doesn't take us seriously at all."
didn't wait for Xia Mingfeng to speak, Xia Yanran beside him was unhappy, rolling his eyes and looking unhappy.
"This ...... Lord of the city, our Li family definitely didn't mean this, but the family master and they encountered something urgent, and they were afraid that they would neglect you, so they sent me and others to meet you at the door, otherwise under normal circumstances, I would never be qualified to stand here with my identity. ”
Seeing that the guide looked embarrassed, Xia Mingfeng pulled Xia Yanran who stepped forward behind him, and glared at her by the way, "It's okay, you can just go and entertain others, it's not the first time I've come to this Li family, since the banquet hasn't started yet, I'll just go shopping." ”
"Father, they ......"
"Yanran, don't forget what you promised me before you went out."
Xia Mingfeng frowned, with a hint of displeasure on his face.
Seeing this, Xia Yanran stuck out her tongue and walked inside behind her father.
Perhaps because of Xia Yanran's complaint just now, after hesitating for a while, the guide did not continue to return to the door to pick up customers, but found the right direction and walked straight towards the backyard.
Different from the front hall for receiving guests, the backyard is equivalent to the inner courtyard of the Li Mansion, which is where the Li family lives and is not open to the public.
At this moment, in a study in the center of the backyard, Li Guangran and his three sons Li Long, Li Hu, Li Bao, and three worshippers were sitting together, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
"There is no news about the king's worship until now, I'm afraid that there will be more luck and less luck." Li Guangran paced back and forth in the room, his face cloudy as he walked.
Hearing this, one of the worshippers sitting at the table shook his head, obviously disagreeing.
"Lao Wang has been living with us for more than three years, and if you want to say that any of the three of us can die, but it is impossible for him. Although his soul power is the lowest among the four of us, only forty-one, but relying on the advantage of the Black Shadow Martial Soul is that it will take a lot of trouble for the fifty-level Soul King to kill him, let alone deal with the two hairy boys, after all, he has a precedent of escaping from the Soul King. ”
But the king had been gone all night, and so far no one had been seen, and there was no news, and the two guards who had gone with him had disappeared with them. If it doesn't happen to you, where can you go? ”
Li Guangran's brows furrowed even deeper, and he set his eyes on his second son Li Hu, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Among the four sons, although his second son has the worst soul power, he is the smartest of the four, plus he has been doing business abroad all the year round, so he has to think more comprehensively than everyone present.
"Hu'er, what do you think about this?"
"Back to the father, according to the children, there is a high probability that the king worship has encountered an accident, but the people who shot it can't be the two children, after all, one of them is an ordinary person with no soul power, and the other is less than fifteen years old, and the soul power of the twenty-fifth level is only twenty-five when he breaks the sky, and it is simply a fool's dream to kill the king and worship."
"And what do you mean?"
"I think there may be someone else who really made a move, such as the mysterious powerhouse who came that day, maybe he didn't leave, but has been hiding by that kid's side to protect secretly."
"It's impossible, if that one made a move, we would have broken the agreement, and he should have killed him a long time ago." Li Bao stood up and shook his head, immediately denying his second brother's opinion.
Frowning, Li Hu stopped talking.
For a moment, there was a brief silence in the room.
After walking back and forth a few more times, Li Guangran finally set his eyes on a middle-aged man at the table who bowed his head and was silent the whole time.
This is his eldest son, the deacon of the Heaven Dou City Martial Spirit Palace, Li Long.
Before Li Shaowei awakened, his eldest son could be said to be the greatest pride in his heart, after all, not everyone had the opportunity to serve in the Heaven Dou City Martial Spirit Palace.
And most importantly, Li Long was also accepted as a registered disciple by the deputy hall master of the Heaven Dou City Martial Spirit Hall.
Therefore, in the current Li family, in addition to him, the eldest son, the most powerful person to speak.
"Long'er, have you seen the person in this portrait?"
Li Long stared at a portrait on the table from beginning to end, his expression thoughtful, until he felt Li Guangran's gaze, then he raised his head and opened his mouth to respond.
"Back to my father, this kid does have some impressions."
"Oh, tell me who this person is." Li Guangran's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly asked.
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Li Long did not answer, but shook his head with a wry smile.
"I've indeed seen this person, but his impression has been blurred for too long, but I can guarantee that he is definitely from the Heaven Dou Empire, and he should live near Heaven Dou City. In this way, when this birthday banquet is over, I will immediately return to Heaven Dou City and give this portrait to Master, who will definitely be able to recognize this person with his old man's eyes. ”
"It's okay, there's no other better way right now, remember to say hello to your master on my behalf when you return to the Martial Spirit Palace......
Bang bang bang!
Li Guangran bowed slightly, but before he finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a knock outside the door.
motioned to Li Hu, who was close to the door, to open the door, only to see a waiter standing respectfully at the door.
Instead of getting angry when he was interrupted, Li Guangran's face returned to his previous indifference.
"What?"
The waiter didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly repeated Xia Mingfeng's arrival and Xia Yanran's words as they were.
"Alright, you go down first." Li Guangran waved his hand, and the waiter answered, bowing and retreating.
After the waiter left, Li Hu sneered, "This Xia Mingfeng is really a big shelf, obviously he has a request for us, and he also let his daughter give us a look." and the last time the fourth child and Wen'er disappeared, it must have something to do with that Xia Yanran! ”
"Okay, don't mention the matter of the fourth child and Wen'er again, I have my own plans in my heart, now that we are in Deakin City, Xia Mingfeng's face still has to be given, pack up, and go out with me to meet guests."
"Yes, Father!".
"Yes, Master!"
The six of them bowed their hands in unison and followed Li Guangran to the front yard.
