Five days later.

Headed by the master of the sect, Sima Kong, a total of thirteen disciples from the Tianji Knife Sect --- the Badao Sect plus Luo Ming, they left the mansion and walked on the street in a mighty way, heading in the direction of the Luoyang Pavilion.

Luoyang Pavilion is located on the street in the west of the city, it is a mansion that is even bigger than the Heavenly Machine Knife Gate, with thousands of disciples and countless elders, and it is well deserved to be the largest sect in Xishan City!!

"Door Master, do you really want to go?" Situ Minglie asked in a low voice.

"Since you have received the invitation, of course you will go, and if there is a battle later, you will watch it well, and it would be great if you can learn something, and of course, if someone challenges you, you ...... Be careful in everything, if you are not defeated, it is better to admit defeat in time than to be ruthless by the other party. ”

"Especially you, Luo Ming, you must be extra careful, this is just a banquet, and the discussion after the wine and dinner is just to add to the fun, in front of so many sect leaders, even if they are ruthless, they will never dare to be blatant. Sima Kong reminded.

Hearing this, all the disciples nodded with heavy faces.

Of course, they understood that because of Luo Ming, after the banquet, the possibility of the disciples of the Falling Sun Pavilion challenging them at the beginning was almost the greatest.

Soon, a group of people arrived at the Luoyang Pavilion, and the same as the Tianji Knife Gate, there is also a 'main hall' in the Luoyang Pavilion, they call it the 'main pavilion', the big things in the pavilion are generally carried out here, when Sima Kong's group of people walked to the gate of the Luoyang Pavilion, a disciple who guarded the door appeared at the door, and respectfully led them into the main hall of the Luoyang Pavilion.

Tianji Daomen was the first to enter the main pavilion, at this moment the main pavilion was empty, there were not many people, entering the main pavilion hall, Sima Kong's group of people sat on the seats that had already been arranged, participating in this banquet, there were a total of twenty-three forces large and small in Xishan City, and they were all the top of these forces, the most elite group of disciples, of course the Luoyang Pavilion did not dare to slack off, and the seats were arranged early.

With the passage of time, there were more and more people in the main hall of the main pavilion, and every once in a while, the loud shouts of the disciples of the Falling Sun Pavilion would be heard outside the main hall.

"The leader of the water moon day has arrived. ”

"The master of the Xuanxian Gate has arrived. ”

"The lord of the Fengyue Xuanfu Mansion came with a group of personal disciples. ”......

Almost every leader of the forces has a group of disciples behind him, or personal disciples, or inner disciples, in short, there is no doubt that he is the top disciple of that sect, because this is not an ordinary banquet, as we all know, after the banquet, each other's disciples must be happy with each other, this has almost become a recognized rule.

There are more and more mysteries in the main pavilion hall, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more lively, some of the leaders of the sect forces have known each other for a long time, and now they are finally able to see each other, of course, they must reminisce about the old days and communicate with each other.

Soon, half an hour passed, and the twenty-three sect forces in Xishan City had reached more than half!

"Look over there. Situ Minglie, who was sitting next to Luo Ming, suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to a corner on the east side of the main hall.

Luo Ming was stunned for a moment, looked in the direction of Situ Minglie's finger, and found that on the arranged seat, there was a woman in green who he was familiar with.

Xue Wei!

"The girl in green is named Xue Shanwei, and the middle-aged man sitting next to her is her father--- Snow Mountain Tiger, who is not only the lord of Xishan City, but also the leader of the temple organization, do you know what are the origins of the three major forces in Xishan City?" Situ Minglie pointed to the distance and introduced in a low voice.

"What's the matter?" Luo Ming was stunned for a moment, and then said with interest.

"Needless to say, my Tianji Dao Sect is a branch of the Dao Immortal Dao Sect in Xishan City, although it is only a separate sect, but after all, it has the Dao Immortal Dao Sect as a backer, and it is a big overlord that Xishan City cannot shake. ”

"The reason why this Luoyang Pavilion is strong is because it has a history of more than 1,000 years, its influence in Xishan City is deep-rooted, and its comprehensive strength is even better than ours. ”

"As for the temple, it is the power of the city lord's mansion, it is rumored that the temple was established by the Great Xia royal family, and the headquarters is in the depths of the Great Xia Imperial Palace. ”

"Among the twenty-three sects that came here today, in addition to three large sects, there are eight medium-sized sects, and the other twelve sects can barely be regarded as small sects, such as Shui Yuetian, Xuanxian Gate, Ethereal Pavilion, etc., there are not many disciples in the small sects, but because they are all in Xishan City, they are also qualified to be invited to come if they don't look at the face of the monk and see the face of the Buddha. ”

"I understand, the Heavenly Machine Sword Gate, the temple is considered an external force, and the Falling Sun Pavilion can be called a local force, no wonder it is a dominant family. Hearing this, Luo Ming nodded suddenly.

"Yes, most of the eight medium-sized sects are headed by the Falling Sun Pavilion, how can they not be strong. Situ Minglie sighed.

"But then again, that Xue Shanwei is not only extraordinary, but also beautiful, gentle and kind, you see, there are a lot of suitors wherever she goes, and most of the mystics in Xishan City admire her. Situ Minglie's words changed, and he sighed with envy, he looked at the snow mountain Wei in the distance, and there was a faint look of amazement on his face.

......Hearing this, Luo Ming was silent for a while, he raised his eyes and swept away, only to see that Xue Shanwei was surrounded by a group of young mysteries who didn't know which sect she came from, with a slight smile on her pretty face, although her appearance was not as good as Li Xiyue, but it was absolutely unique, especially the soft smile on her face, and the peace in her eyes, which was enough to make her charm reach the extreme.

As if sensing Luo Ming's eyes, Xue Shanwei turned her head slightly and glanced in the direction where Luo Ming was, but this glance made the softness in the depths of Xue Shanwei's eyes disappear instantly, and she glared at Luo Ming fiercely.

"@#¥@#@" Luo Ming was silent again, thinking to himself, only villains and women are difficult to raise!......

All the guests have arrived, and the time for the banquet to begin.

And at this time, the protagonist of this banquet, that is, the pavilion master of the Luoyang Pavilion--- Xia Hongyi finally appeared, Xia Hongyi had a scar on his forehead, white hair, calm and peaceful complexion, clear eyes, he looked like a breezy and delicate bones, exuding a transcendent atmosphere, compared with the cold old man five days ago, it was completely like a different person.

After he took the chairman's seat, except for Sima Kong and Snow Mountain Tiger in the main hall, the other twenty-one sect leaders all stood up from their seats as if they had discussed.

"Everybody be quiet. Xia Hongyi stood on the chairman, looked around, raised his palms and pressed down, his voice was clear.

And at this moment, there are at least more than 400 mysteries in the main pavilion hall, which was originally very lively, and when he heard Xia Hongyi's voice, he soon became silent, and the audience was quiet and the needle drop could be heard, and a pair of eyes were also staring at this powerful and unfathomable old man in Xishan City.

The wine and food have been served.

Xia Hongyi returned to the table, picked up the wine glass, and said loudly: "In the blink of an eye, four years have passed, in these four years, with the help of you, Xishan City has always been safe and sound, and has not been bullied and occupied by foreign forces, and our Xishan City can have such a peaceful scene, everyone present has made great contributions, this glass of wine, Xia Mou did it first." ”

As he spoke, Xia Hongyi raised his wine glass and saluted first.

The twenty-one sect leaders also hurriedly raised their glasses, and said polite words one after another.

"Where is it, the Xia Pavilion Lord is too polite, the affairs in the city, if it weren't for the Luoyang Pavilion in charge, where would it be so easy to solve. ”

"That is, without the Luoyang Pavilion and the leadership of the Xia Pavilion Lord, Xishan City would not have developed so fast, and it would have been occupied by the forces of other cities long ago. ”

"This glass of wine should be our toast to you. ”

"With the support of the Xia Pavilion Lord, I believe that Xishan City must be prosperous step by step and develop rapidly. ”

The atmosphere became lively all of a sudden, and at this moment, Luo Ming understood what the meaning of the sect meeting held once every four years was contained.

To put it bluntly, this is actually a means for Luoyang Pavilion to win over the big and small forces in Xishan City and consolidate its hegemony, and the so-called sect meeting is just --- joke.

While those sect disciples kept raising their glasses, their eyes also swept around, thinking that they were choosing opponents after waiting, small sects against small sects, medium-sized sects against medium-sized sects, and large sects against large sects.

And what about Lomin?

He clearly felt that the inner disciples of the Luoyang Pavilion behind Xia Hongyi swept towards him with cold eyes, one by one, and the murderous aura was permeated......

"I hope that in the next four years, everyone will work together to contribute to the development of Xishan City. Xia Hongyi raised his glass again and drank it all.

Others, of course, chimed in......

Xia Hongyi is obviously very capable of controlling the big scene, eating and drinking enough, drinking three rounds, under his control, the scene is becoming more and more lively, and all kinds of laughter and laughter continue.

Luo Ming didn't drink alcohol, ate some spicy dishes, and half-filled his stomach, his attention was always on the side of the Falling Sun Pavilion, and naturally he also saw some eye contact between the disciples of the Falling Sun Pavilion.

"It's coming. Luo Ming saw a fierce look that inadvertently flashed on Xia Hongyi's face, and immediately said secretly.

Really---

In the next second, Xia Hongyi stood up directly from his seat, and in front of everyone's eyes, he picked up a glass of wine and walked quickly to Sima Kong.

"Over the years, Master Sima has also contributed a lot to the development of Xishan City, this glass of wine, Xia Mou respects you. After speaking, Xia Hongyi took a sip of the wine in the cup, and did not wait for Sima Kong to drink, and continued: "The Tianji Knife Gate is a branch set up by a behemoth such as the Dao Immortal Sword Sect in Xishan City, although it is only a separate sect, but the strength is outstanding, the disciples inside must all be elites, and the cultivation is amazing. ”

"In the temple, there are mostly powerless saint masters, so I don't want to be reluctant, Xia has a good proposal, why don't we let the disciples of our two sects learn from each other, not only can we have fun, but also increase each other's feelings, what do you think, Master Sima?"

As soon as Xia Hongyi's words fell, before Sima Kong could speak, the twenty-one sect leaders next to him clapped their hands and cheered.

"It's not enough fun, but it's a wonderful note. ”

"Okay, it's a great pleasure to watch the disciples learn from each other. ”

"I have heard for a long time that the strong people in the knife gate are like clouds, and all the sword decisions make them superb, Sima Sect Master, you must not refuse, it has affected everyone's interest. ”
