readx;? The Soul Sect settled in Xihuang Mountain, and within half a month, all the sect forces within a radius of thousands of miles sent invitations one after another, because Lu Yifan decided to officially announce the establishment of the Soul Sect in Xihuang Mountain on the second day of August. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

According to the rules of the establishment of a new sect, on the day of the official establishment of any new sect, it is reasonable to set up a heaven and earth banquet in the door to entertain guests and friends from all over the world and all the lords of the world. In order to inform the world, another new sect has been established.

This is to make friends, after all, it is a new sect, and it is not familiar with all parties, so it is natural to lower its own posture in order to win the support of all forces, the so-called cannibalistic mouth is short and people are short, all forces in the world eat and drink in the new sect, and then bring back some gifts when they leave, and who will deliberately make things difficult for the new sect? Even if they didn't know each other before, they naturally knew each other after experiencing such a scene, the so-called human affection is like this, they have never met and they are called long-admiring, even if they have met once, they are friends, and they can be called friends after drinking a wine, in fact, they are all confused drunken words, and everyone knows the taste. The second is to prove himself to the world, to put it bluntly, there will be a little bit of prestige, through such a feast of making friends, the Soul Sect will no longer be a nameless junior in the future, whether it can be called a resounding will not be said for the time being, but at least the various sects in the Holy Domain are counted as such a number, and the people of the Soul Sect will go out in the future to report their names, which can be regarded as adding a touch of luster to their faces, so that they can bring some jealousy to others.

Therefore, whether it is reasonable or public or private, there is no doubt that this heaven and earth banquet on the second day of August will be held. And Lu Yifan, as the master of the Soul Sect, naturally has to personally stand up and preside over the overall situation, large and small sect forces, regardless of relatives and distances, have sent out a total of thousands of invitations, this is only limited to a radius of thousands of miles, if it is extended further, I am afraid that ten thousand invitations will not be able to stop.

The first arrival of the Soul Sect naturally has to be carefully prepared, whether it is the dishes and wine, or the gifts, all of them are seen by Lu Yifan personally, and even all the arrangements inside and outside the sect, up and down the Xihuang Mountain, have to be arranged by Ji Yuan and Lu Jun day and night, no matter how many hardships and dangers have been experienced in the middle? No matter how many sleepless nights the disciples of the Soul Sect have stayed up? All in all, when the second day of the eighth lunar month finally came, the Soul Sect had all been arranged inside and out, just waiting for the distinguished guests of various sects and factions to come to the door.

But is everything really going as it should, and is it really good to get a satisfactory result even if all the details are put in place?

Not necessarily!

On the second day of August, at noon.

In the main hall of the Soul Sect in Xihuang Mountain, Lu Yifan on the main seat looks like a groom official today, the big red brocade dress is embroidered with dragon and phoenix Chengxiang, two sleeves auspicious clouds, brocade lining, Ayaluo's outer body, gold and jade belt around the waist, stepping on the green cloud shoes, sitting firmly in that place without losing domineering, festive and solemn, this body is specially matched by Han Linger for Lu Yifan, although Lu Yifan is not interested in a big red, but he can't resist Han Linger's insistence, Han Linger always threatens him with the overall situation of the Soul Sect, so that Lu Yifan can only be like a lamb to be slaughtered, let Han Linger do everything to himself'Torture'.

However, does a festive dress necessarily have a festive atmosphere? This is not the case, at this moment, Lu Yifan not only did not show a festive expression, but actually frowned deeply, and his face was sad, and his right hand was casually tapping on the table, and there was a crisp sound from time to time in the huge main hall.

"Whose reply is this?" Lu Yifan frowned and looked at Ji Yuan, who was standing in the hall, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

At this moment, it was not only Lu Yifan who was worried, but also Liu Sandao, Xie Yun and Lu Jun who were sitting in the hall, as well as Chu Ding, Qin Qingyu and other Soul Sect protectors. And the most interesting thing is that the square outside the main hall is now full of banquets, and there are hundreds of tables at the least, and the tables full of wine and food are even more dazzling and mouth-watering. It's just that the only strange thing is that in so many banquets, there is no trace of any guests, except for the disciples of the Soul Sect who are standing around the square and preparing to serve the banquet, there is no one on the huge square within a radius of thousands of meters, this heaven and earth banquet looks a little funny, even a little weird, especially watching the table full of dishes steaming in the air, and the dishes, cups and chopsticks are also set up in an orderly manner, but the table is empty, it is like a dead man's banquet.

The more than 1,000 invitations sent out by the Soul Sect failed to invite a single guest!

"This reply is sent by Pang He!" Ji Yuan said with a bitter face, and as he spoke, he also raised the reply in his hand slightly in the direction of Lu Yifan.

"What is the reason?" Lu Yifan continued to ask, "Is it an occasional cold or someone in the family is unfortunately killed!" Hearing Lu Yifan's words, everyone in the hall also looked at Ji Yuan with a touch of disdain, they have heard many such excuses today.

"Pang He said that he was going to order a baby kiss for his son who had just turned one year old today, so he didn't come......"

"Dingdo's family, it's a shame that Pang He can figure it out!" Before Ji Yuan's words could be finished, Liu Sandao couldn't help but sneer, "Why didn't he say that it was to celebrate the eightieth birthday of his dead father?" The far-fetched excuse is clearly prevaricating us!"

"We sent out thousands of invitations, but we only received less than fifty replies, and the rest were all like a stone in the sea, and there was no news!" Lu Jun frowned and concluded to Lu Yifan, "It seems that what we thought before was still too simple, and today's Soul Sect may still be worthless in the eyes of these people." In the past, when we were doing the Southwest Chamber of Commerce, the city lords of the Fourteen Cities in the Southwest would give more or less some face, but now that we have established a sect, even these old acquaintances can't wait to draw a line with us. Yifan, I don't understand what went wrong?"

"Most of the people who replied to our posts were some friends with us before, and they gave us a step down, but more often they ignored our invitations, obviously in their eyes, we didn't even deserve the most basic respect!" Ji Yuan said softly, " But even among the people who replied to the post, the vast majority of them were just looking for a reason to prevaricate, and there was only one reply from Fang Chengtian in the lockdown of so many replies, in addition to a high-sounding reason, there were also eight extra words: Under the eaves, I can't help myself!"

"Under the eaves?" Hearing Ji Yuan's words, Xie Yun's brows couldn't help but raise slightly, "What eaves?"

"What else can they say? Xuanzong, of course!" Just when everyone in the hall was at a loss, Yan Shuang's voice suddenly came in from outside the hall, and then he and Tang Ruoxi walked in, Yan Shuang's expression still looked as plain as water, and he didn't seem to be surprised by today's stalemate, that feeling was as if all this was something he expected, I saw Yan Shuang say slowly as he walked, " The matter of the Emperor Sect losing the gamble and then leaving the West Emperor Mountain has now reached the ears of the Sacred Domain Sect Master, and Dongfang Su has also released words to the entire Sacred Domain with the mouth of Xuanzong, whoever dares to have the slightest relationship with the Soul Sect is equivalent to treating Xuanzong and the Sacred Domain Sect Master as mortal enemies!"

"There is such a thing?" Yan Shuang's words surprised everyone in the hall, Lu Yifan stood up directly and looked at Yan Shuang in surprise, and then after thinking about it for a while, his face showed a look of sudden realization, "No wonder we sent thousands of invitations, but no one came to congratulate them, it turned out that it was not that they didn't want to come, but that they didn't dare to come! This is also human nature, after all, it was Xuanzong who let go, and who in the holy realm dared not obey? I think even if the emperor heard this, he was afraid that he would have to weigh three points!"

"In this way, what Fang Chengtian said about 'under the eaves, you can't help yourself' refers to the order released by Xuanzong?" Ji Yuan nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that what we offended this time is really not just a Huang Xuan, even Xuanzong and the Sacred Domain Sect Master are involved!"

"So what?" Before Ji Yuan's words fell, Liu Sandao sneered nonchalantly, "Since these people don't dare to come, it can only prove that they are a group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death! We also just take this opportunity to see their true colors, and we will save some old feelings in the future! Hmph!" Although Liu Sandao's tone was full of strong disdain, Lu Yifan could still clearly feel the anger in Liu Sandao's heart.

"Today is a big day for our Soul Sect to open a sect, and no one in the world has come to congratulate you, if this matter spreads, I am afraid that it will become the laughing stock of the world!" Lu Jun said in a condensed voice, "This is simply a great shame for the Soul Sect!"

"I, Liu Sandao, swear to the heavens, the humiliation suffered by the Soul Sect today, sooner or later, I will let these people repay it twice!" Liu Sandao gritted his teeth with a fierce look in his eyes and said, "Sooner or later, I will let these snobs kneel in front of us and kowtow to us to admit their mistakes!"

Lu Yifan silently sat back on the chair, his gloomy face was mixed with a touch of helpless sadness, and everyone in the hall also kept silent after noticing Lu Yifan's face, and the whole hall also fell into a strange silence in an instant, and everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Yifan, who was speechless, as if waiting for him to make a final decision.

Although Lu Yifan didn't say much, through his clenched fists, even a fool could see that Lu Yifan couldn't really let go of such a shame. This feeling is like you happily and carefully prepared a gift, but when you send it out, instead of gladly accepting it, the recipient will give you a loud slap in the face, so that you always have a sense of self-humiliation and powerlessness.

Lu Yifan kept thinking in his heart: If he knew this, he shouldn't have sent so many invitations in the first place, so that everyone in the Soul Sect would not have this kind of frustration!

"That's it!" Lu Yifan looked at everyone in the hall quietly, and then said lightly, "Since the wine banquet has been arranged, let's let our own disciples of the Soul Sect eat and drink to their heart's content!"

"Yifan, we have set up hundreds of large tables for banquets, even if all the disciples of our Soul Sect are counted now, I am afraid that one table will not be able to make two or three people, will this be ......?"

"Even if there is only one person sitting at a table, I don't want to see an empty table!" Without waiting for Ji Yuan's words to finish, Lu Yifan raised his head suddenly, staring directly at Ji Yuan with a solemn gaze, and his tone was so resolute that it was beyond doubt, "I just want all the disciples up and down the Soul Sect to clearly remember the humiliation I suffered today, if we remain stronger, then we can only appreciate ourselves alone, and outsiders will not look at us at all!" The first thing the Soul Sect has to do next is to expand its power, at least to fill this banquet outside!"

"I understand!" Hearing Lu Yifan's words, Ji Yuan nodded firmly, "I'll go ...... now"

"Report!"

Before Ji Yuan's words could be finished, he was interrupted by a rapid message, and then saw a Soul Sect disciple trotting all the way into the main hall, because he was too flustered, so he tripped over the threshold when he entered the door, and then stumbled under his feet, and the whole person fell to the ground with a 'poof', and then this disciple didn't care about tidying up his robe, and hurriedly replied to Lu Yifan: "Sect Master, someone sent some ...... outside the mountain gate Some ......"

"What?" Lu Jun's face turned cold, and he couldn't wait to snort coldly, "But it's okay to say it!"

"Someone sent some elegiac wreaths, paper figures and ......paper horses for the dead," this disciple's words were already so small that they were almost inaudible, because he could already clearly feel the increasingly gloomy faces of everyone in the hall, which made his tone tremble a little, "The person who came said that this was given to us for the founding of our Soul Sect...... Congratulatory ......"

"Bastard!"

"Smack!"

Before the disciple's words fell, Yin Xi, who was sitting in the hall, had already taken the case, only to see him raise his eyebrows and ask angrily, "Which dog was sent by the minor?"

"People...... The people are gone......" said the disciple timidly, "they claim to be the previous masters of this place...... The person who led the group was called Yuan Wu...... He said that these wreath paper horses were specially given to Sect Master Lu, saying that he wished Sect Master Lu and the Soul Sect a blissful life in advance......

"You still say!" Seeing that this disciple was so uninteresting, Liu Meng walked directly to him in a big stride, and kicked the disciple who had just stood up to the ground with a kick, "As a disciple guarding the door, you didn't even leave the person who came to the door to provoke the Emperor Sect, and you still have the fucking face to come here to report, what's the use of the Soul Sect leaving you such a waste?"

"We originally stopped them from leaving, but Yuanwu's gang had a good way, and our guards were really not their opponents, so they let them run away...... "The disciple was about to cry aggrievedly.

"Do you dare to quibble? Lao Tzu can't get used to you being a coward who has an excuse for everything, and the fact that you are still alive proves that you have not done your best with the people of the Imperial Sect, and my Soul Sect does not keep you who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and I see that Lao Tzu will kill you now......"

"Liu Meng!" Without waiting for Liu Meng to pull out the knife and unsheath, Lu Yifan suddenly shouted, "What are you embarrassing him for? Don't say it's him, even if you meet Yuan Wu, there is only one way to die, recklessness does not equal bravery!"

"But the suzerain......"

"Needless to say!"

"Yifan, do you want me to take someone to chase him out?" Liu Sandao hurriedly asked.

"No need!" Lu Yifan shook his head slowly and said, "Yuan Wu must be fully prepared if he dares to provoke, not to mention that today is the great day for the founding of my Soul Sect, it is not suitable to see blood, let him go!"

"Then I'll go and burn the broken things that Yuan Wu brought!" As he spoke, Liu Sandao wanted to get up and walk towards the outside of the hall.

"Don't burn it!" Lu Yifan opened his mouth again and said, "Not only don't burn it, but also bring the 'congratulatory gift' that Yuan Wu gave us to the banquet and place it next to these wine tables! Let every Soul Sect disciple see clearly, this is the only generous gift our Soul Sect has received today!"

After that, Lu Yifan completely ignored the surprised expressions of everyone in the hall, stood up by himself, and walked towards the outside of the hall.

At this moment, Lu Yifan's back looks like a trace of helpless loneliness, a trace of stubbornness that would rather bend, and a trace of arrogance that endures humiliation. Heaviness...... And stand tall!
