Chapter Twenty-Four: Bright Moon City

"Haochen, okay? The Lord of Nalan Hall said that he wanted to give us contestants a meal today, and let us get to know each other. ”

Outside Long Haochen's room, a girl with her long hair combed into a high ponytail was knocking on his door and urging.

"Alright." Long Haochen, who had changed his clothes, pushed open the door and smiled at her: "Sister, let's go over now." ”

After saying this, Long Haochen turned his head again and touched Haoyue's two heads that poked his head out of the room.

"You are obedient, and I will be back in the evening." Seeing that Haoyue had no intention of going back to the room, Long Haochen could only say helplessly: "If I go back, I will bring you dried fish to eat at night." ”

He and Haoyue have been together for almost half a year, so they naturally know what to say.

Sure enough, after hearing Long Haochen say that he wanted to buy them small dried fish, Haoyue immediately turned around and went back to the room.

"This is going down. Sister, let's go. Long Haochen greeted.

"Okay." Before leaving, the girl glanced back at Haoyue, whose two heads were hidden behind the window, couldn't help but smile: "Haoyue is so smart." ”

This girl who was called her sister by Long Haochen was actually just a sister he recognized, and there was no blood relationship between the two.

However, she is quite famous in Haoyue City, and others prefer to call her 'Hell Rose' than her name, Li Xin.

Although the reason why she got this title is partly due to her fiery temper, it is more about people's recognition of her strength.

The two siblings were talking as they walked in the direction of the ruling government of Haoyue City.

When they were about to reach the gate of the ruling government, they saw a young girl in blue walking in front of them.

"It's unlucky." Li Xin pursed her lips and said, "We will even have to act with Lin Jialu when the time comes." ”

But fortunately, Li Xin's voice was not loud, and Lin Jialu did not hear her voice, but walked directly into the ruling government.

When Li Xin was saying this, Long Haochen felt that his head was big.

But fortunately, people didn't hear it, otherwise the two would probably fight on the spot here.

"Sister, you can't say what you just said in the future." Long Haochen said with some trepidation: "How can I say that Sister Jialu will also be our partner at that time, you can't bring personal grievances to the battlefield." ”

"Oh, it won't." Li Xin lowered her head a little ashamedly, obviously realizing her mistake. "Let's go in first."

"Yes, my uncle said he was going to invite us to a big dinner today." Long Haochen immediately changed the topic and said, "I heard that several of our big names in Haoyue City will also participate." ”

For them, there were not only the Nalan Hall Lord of the Haoyue Branch of the Knight Temple, but also Li Xin's father, Li Aoxiao, who was the military chief of Haoyue City.

and Li Jialu's father, Lin Yin's family, who is the consul of Haoyue City.

The other two are Bai Yu, the hall master of the Haoyue Branch of the Magic Temple, and Chen Chunhua, the hall master of the Haoyue Branch of the Warrior Temple.

The reason why these big names specially organized tonight's banquet was naturally to give a boost to this group of young people who were going to participate in the Demon Hunting Troupe Selection Tournament tomorrow.

After all, as long as they ranked higher in the competition and performed better, then their Haoyue City's status in the Human Federation would be higher, and they might even be promoted to the main city.

Therefore, each edition of the Demon Hunting Group Selection Contest is actually a competition between major cities. The quantity and quality of talents produced by the other side are higher than that of others.

The two of them arrived at the government a little late, and basically everyone who should have arrived had already arrived, and the exquisite food was already on the table.

Li Xin's father, Li Aoxiao, saw the two coming, and also greeted: "Xin'er, you take Haochen to sit down first, the banquet is about to start." ”

"Hello uncle." Long Haochen politely greeted the other party before finding a place to sit down with Li Xin.

"Huh?" Long Haochen glanced at everyone present, only to find that there was an empty chair here.

"Haochen, what's wrong?" Li Jialu, who was sitting on the side, turned to the side and asked with some curiosity.

Long Haochen shook his head slightly, "It's nothing, it's just an extra chair." ”

"Lin Jialu! Close ......"

Li Xin saw that her enemy Lin Jialu dared to hook up with her brother in front of her, and she suddenly couldn't sit still.

It's just that she hadn't finished her words yet, and she was dumbfounded because she suddenly thought of what Long Haochen had just told her.

"What's off?" Lin Jialu thought that Li Xin was going to quarrel with herself, so she naturally retorted not to be outdone.

"Off...... Close the window on your side, it's a bit windy. Li Xin gritted her teeth and said, she finally decided to endure this time.

Li Aoxiao looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction. He felt that his daughter had really grown up, and now she finally understood the truth of taking a step back and opening up the sky.

So Li Aoxiao turned to look at Nalan Shu, "Lord Nalan Hall, the banquet is about to start, didn't you say that you want to introduce us to a young man from the Holy City?" ”

"It should be coming soon, I told him the time." Nalan Shu nodded slightly, then turned to the door, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't you think this is coming?" ”

At this time, Yue Shen entered the living room of the ruling government under the guidance of the staff.

"Lord Nalan Hall." Yue Shen stepped forward and saluted.

Nalan Shu smiled and introduced: "This person next to me is the military chief of Haoyue City, you can call him Uncle Li." ”

"Hello Uncle Li, my name is Yue Shen."

"I've heard the Lord of Nalan Hall say it several times before." Li Aoxiao laughed and said, "Sure enough, he is a talent, a young hero." ”

After greeting Li Aoxiao, Nalan Shu let Yue Shen sit down. After all, there were other temple branch hall masters present, and he didn't plan to introduce Yue Shen to them.

After seeing the comer, Long Haochen was stunned for a moment.

"Haochen, what's wrong?" Li Xin on the side looked at Long Haochen, who was sluggish, and then at Yue Shen, who had just walked in, and asked with some confusion.

In fact, Long Haochen originally planned to introduce Yue Shen to Li Xin, but when he saw that Yue Shen just found a vacant seat, he just sat down directly, and he didn't want to come to communicate with him.

"It's fine." Long Haochen chuckled and shook his head.

"Really?" Li Xin asked with a skeptical expression.

As soon as she saw Long Haochen's reaction just now, she knew that her brother was lying.

It's just that what makes her a little curious is that Long Haochen has been staying in Haoyue City in recent years, how did he know this person?

However, she didn't continue to hold on to Long Haochen's performance just now, because she saw Lin Jialu who was not far away and was signaling her to come over with her eyes, and the other party also pointed at the person who had just come here.

Although the two have never dealt with each other, because Li Xin's curiosity has been aroused at this time.

After thinking about it, she still got up and left the table and walked in the direction of Lin Jialu.

"What?" Li Xin thought of the deflated face she had just now, and asked a little angrily: "If you want to ask me about that person, don't do it, I don't know him." ”
