Chapter 437: The Five Mansions Gather

"Mansion Master, Young Master Zhongxian is back. ”

The voice of the Purple Dragon Mansion disciple at the gate was full of excitement and surprise. The hearts of everyone in the entire courtyard lit up, and their eyes swept towards the location of the gate.

The jubilant and lively atmosphere suddenly became unusually quiet, and Wu Changkong, who was originally going to entertain Ling Fangtang, Shangguan Jian, Ouyang Aoki, and Luo Hanyuan to enter the inner hall, involuntarily stopped, turned around and looked ahead.

Under the gaze of everyone, Wu Zhongxian slowly stepped on the steps and stepped into the threshold of the Purple Dragon Mansion. He did not wear a monk's robe today, but changed into a white robe trimmed with gold wire. But his face was still covered with that layer of red gauze, and his angular face was as resolute as if it had been cut by a knife.

Fifteen years, almost sixteen years.

Since Dong Wan'er was killed, Wu Zhongxian has not stepped into this house again. Everyone in the Purple Dragon Mansion has an indescribable sadness.

Standing behind the five mansion masters, Shangguan Mian, Ouyang Yu, Ling Fangtu and his party were all moved. Wu Zhongxian, who was once high-spirited and promising, has become what he is today. It's really unpredictable.

Luo Mengchenyu held his hand lightly, and there was a faint light in his beautiful eyes.

Wu Zhongxian walked towards Wu Changkong in front of him step by step, when he was less than five meters away from the other party. Wu Zhongxian 'poofed', fell to his knees with his legs, and kowtowed his head heavily.

"Dad, the child is not filial, so you are always worried. ”

Wu Zhongxian's dry voice suddenly touched everyone present, Wu Changkong's body couldn't help shaking, and his majestic eyes involuntarily turned red.

Sixteen years, almost sixteen years.

Although they are in the same sinless city, the distance between the two fathers and sons is like the ends of the world. Even if they meet, they are strangers. At this moment, Wu Changkong felt like he was in a dream.

A sentence of unfilial piety of a child is full of countless guiltes of Wu Zhongxian. A sentence that makes you worry about it all the time, and it is not the words he wants to express the most over the years.

"Zhongxian. Wu Changkong is now like a loving father, stepping forward to hold Wu Zhongxian's arm, his reddened eyes full of bitterness and love. "It's good to be back, it's good to be back. I waited for this day for my father, and I waited for a long time, and I waited for a long time. ”

The true feelings of the father and son were revealed, which moved everyone in the mansion.

A few soft-hearted women quietly wiped away their tears.

Luo Hanyuan, the lord of Luochen Mansion, sighed softly, and glanced at his daughter Luo Mengchen beside him out of the corner of his eye, and his heart was full of mixed tastes.

"I said old witch, you are old, can you not be so sensational?" said Ouyang Aoki, the lord of Moyun Mansion, with a kind smile. "We don't care how we feel. ”

"That's it, I see that your old tears are about to flow out. Shangguan Jian, the lord of Danhao Mansion, also joked.

In recent years, it has been rare for the five lords to make such jokes. Wu Changkong was a little hung up by a few people, and immediately helped Wu Zhongxian up.

"Zhongxian, come with us to the lobby. ”

"Hmm. Wu Zhongxian nodded, and the knot of 'father and son' that had been hidden in his heart for more than ten years was untied, and a lot of depression was released.

"Everyone!" Wu Changkong turned to the guests in the courtyard and said aloud, "Thank you for looking up to me Wu Changkong, everyone is casual today, don't be too stubborn, Wu will come out later to accompany you to have a drink!"

In the midst of everyone's congratulations, Wu Changkong, Wu Zhongxian and other high-level officials from the four prefectures entered the inner hall.

The fact that a big power in an innocent city like the Purple Dragon Mansion held a birthday banquet was enough to flatter these large and small families. And the other four mansions naturally can't sit on an equal footing with other family forces, so Wu Changkong entertained people from the other four mansions in the inner hall. The guests outside will not complain.

Under Wu Changkong's greeting, everyone entered the inner hall. The area of the inner hall is very large, simple and ancient, and the tables and chairs are made of high-quality ebony wood, which has a scholarly atmosphere.

On the inside of the inner nave, there is a large round table. The round table is large enough for twenty or thirty people to sit, and the table is full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and Qiong Yao wine.

"Four old friends, we haven't eaten at the same table in years, let's all sit down!"

Wu Changkong seemed to cherish this opportunity, and with Wu Zhongxian's return, he was in a good mood, and his tone of voice became very gentle.

Ouyang Qingmu, Shangguan Jian, Ling Fangtang, and Luo Hanyuan glanced at each other. There was no intention of sitting down, and the expressions on the faces of the four became serious.

Shangguan Jian opened his mouth and said, "Wu Changkong, you summoned us here, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Hearing Shangguan Jian say this, all the high-level officials of the Five Mansions were a little stunned. Shangguan Mian, Ouyang Yu, Ling Wanquan and others, you look at me, I look at you. What's the situation? Didn't you come today to congratulate Wu Changkong on his birthday? How Shangguan Jian's words seemed to have another meaning.

Shangguan Jian continued, "Wu Changkong, if I'm not mistaken. The fifteenth of next month will be your sixtieth birthday, right?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the lobby was even more surprised.

"Hehe, it's rare that Brother Shangguan still remembers my birthday. Wu Changkong clenched his hands into fists, and his face became calm.

"Wu Changkong, with your character, you won't play such a joke with us, let's say! What the hell is going on? You want to bring us together in this way. ”

Ouyang Aoki's tone was also a little less playful and a little more serious.

In fact, as soon as the four of them received the invitation sent by Wu Changkong, they became suspicious. First, Wu Changkong has not held a birthday banquet for sixteen years. This is nothing special, after all, he is sixty years old, and it makes sense to do it all of a sudden. But what puzzled the four of them was that Wu Changkong's birthday was next month, not this month.

What is certain is that Wu Changkong will not be so confused as to get the time wrong. Then there is only one possibility, that is, he did this on purpose, the purpose is to bring the high-level of the five mansions together.

"It's still the four of you who know me. Wu Changkong nodded, and his majestic gaze swept the door of the lobby. Immediately, with a flick of his fingertips, a white streamer burst out instantly.

Under the bewildered gaze of everyone, the white light flashed to the location of the door, and then turned into a transparent film of light. In just a moment, the light film disappeared, and the drinking and shouting of the guests outside the house could still be heard clearly.

"This?"

"I've cast a spell of illusion. Wu Changkong explained, "We can receive things from the outside, but people from the outside don't know what we are doing inside. ”

Everyone was even more shocked, Wu Changkong's cautious Cheng DΓΉ made the high-level officials of the five prefectures present feel the severity of the situation.

You know, this is the city of innocence. Wufu is definitely a hegemon-level existence in the city, and now Wu Changkong looks cautious, which not only confuses them, but also puzzles them.

"Wu Changkong, you are inevitably making too much of a fuss, right! Is it necessary for us to hide like this?" Ling Fangtang couldn't understand the other party's behavior, and said coldly.

"Brother Ling, don't worry, there is someone who will tell you about the cause and effect of the incident. ”

"Oh?"

"Little brother Hanchen, come out!" Wu Changkong shouted towards the inner room of the lobby.

Everyone's hearts were stunned, especially Shangguan Mian, like a kitten with its tail stepped on, and his heart couldn't help shrinking.

Under the increasingly puzzled gaze of everyone, Hanchen walked out of the inner room.

"Student Hanchen, I have met all the deans of the mansion. ”

Except for Wu Changkong, the other four mansion masters squinted, secretly wondering what the other party was going to do.

"Lord Shangguan Mansion. Hanchen took the lead in turning his gaze to Shangguan Jian, and as he spoke, he pulled out a brocade box from the storage ring. "Lord Shangguan Mansion, not long ago, Tutor Shangguan lent his student a Heavenly Soul Colored Seven Leaf, and today is the opportunity to return this precious medicinal herb to you. ”

Hanchen's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and he presented the brocade box quite politely.

Shangguan Jian raised his eyebrows, glanced sideways at Shangguan Mian behind him, but did not mean to take it. "Forget it, it's just a Heavenly Soul Colored Seven Leaves, I'll give it to you. ”

As soon as Shangguan Jian's words came out, everyone present was stunned, especially Shangguan Mian, who was even more surprised.

Wu Changkong, Ouyang Qingmu and the others understood at a glance the intention of Shangguan Jian. Now is different from the past, and now Hanchen has won the championship of the battle of the heavenly rankings. If you achieve this before the age of twenty, the future must be limitless. Shangguan Jian seemed to be throwing an olive branch to the other party, intending to win over the other party.

Shangguan Jian did this, and he couldn't help but look a little embarrassed by the other people in power in the four provinces. scolded Shangguan Jian one after another, and at this time, he did not forget to win people's hearts.

Hanchen was also quite surprised, he didn't know the precious Cheng dΓΉ of the Heavenly Soul Color Seven Leaves. It is precisely because he knows its preciousness that he intends to return it to Danhao Mansion.

"Hanchen, you can take it! It's rare for my dad to be so generous. ”

Shangguan Mian said coldly, and immediately glared at Shangguan Jianqi's beard. The other people present also couldn't help but laugh a little, secretly thinking that the relationship between this Hanchen and Shangguan Mian seemed to be extraordinary.

"Hehe, then thank you to the lord of the Shangguan Mansion. Hanchen didn't shirk, he did it casually, and took back the Heavenly Soul Color Seven Leaves.

"Okay, don't talk too much, Hanchen, tell everyone what you know!" Wu Changkong said.

Hanchen nodded, his face becoming solemn. "I believe everyone has heard that the monarch of the Great Seal Empire has changed hands, and in two months, the Gongsun family will marry the royal family of the Great Seal Empire. ”

"What does this have to do with us?" Ling Fangtang replied coldly, he had always been obsessed with Hanchen.

"Naturally. Han Chen let out a deep sigh of relief, his gaze swept over everyone, "The Gongsun family and the Great Seal Empire are only a union on the surface, but in fact, there are two huge killer organizations in the background, the Blood Pavilion and the Fugui Building. Once Cang Yan'er and Gongsun Yu get married, their goal is the City of Innocence. ”

Everyone's hearts were shocked, and one by one they showed disbelief.
