Volume 2 The Wind Rises and the Spirit Cloud Chapter 144 The Hongmen Banquet

Chen Dongsheng is Chen Yi!

Why did he become the new lord of Crescent City?

The city lord was appointed by the Yin family, so why did the Yin family have anything to do with the Demon Palace?

Countless questions poured into Lin Dongjiu's mind, making him a little overwhelmed for a while.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "With a Dan Master like Mr. Lin, why worry about the rise of the Dan Dao of Lingyun Country?" ”

"The city lord has won the prize!"

Lin Dongjiu restrained his emotions, stared at Chen Yi viciously, and said with a smile:

"I heard that the two seniors said that they were going to hold a banquet in the City Lord's Mansion and invited me to go, and then they should have two drinks with the City Lord."

Chen Yi laughed: "Definitely, definitely!" ”

Lin Dongjiu narrowed his eyes, put away the jade plate, turned around and left.

Those Dan Masters who were still waiting for Chen Yi to issue the jade medal on the stage saw Lin Dongjiu leave, but they were helpless, and they were so anxious that their heads were sweating.

Many Dan masters who stayed in place were waiting for this opportunity, and they all showed flattering smiles and hurriedly surrounded them.

Lin Dongjiu was not in the mood to ignore them, he raised his head suddenly, his deep gaze swept away, and his divine sense instantly enveloped the audience.

Those Dan masters who came around all froze, their faces became extremely frightened, and a strong sense of suffocation struck, seeing Lin Dongjiu as if they were seeing a god, so they didn't dare to take a step forward.

Lin Dongjiu shook his hand through the crowd and walked towards Yin Xiaodie with a calm face.

His original idea was to leave here as soon as the election was over, go directly to the imperial city, and save trouble to find a head.

But now, he was going to the feast.

Yin Xiaodie smiled happily and jumped up to meet everyone's suspicious gaze.

But before she could think about it, a black dress flashed in front of her eyes, and she came to Lin Dongjiu one step faster.

Yin Xiaodie: "? ”

Yin Xiaodie frowned, her delicate melon seed face as cold as ice.

"Lin... Well, Brother Lin! ”

The voice was filled with surprise and excitement.

Lin Dongjiu was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the comer, the gloom on his face disappeared instantly, and he was also surprised:

"Miss Vivi! How did you come to Crescent City? ”

"Oh, you know, I like to go north and south!"

Nie Weiwei showed a little tiger tooth, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of joy when she met an old acquaintance, after all, she is always alone, it is rare to have such a friend as Lin Dongjiu, and it is inevitable to be surprised when she meets again.

"Brother Lin, I didn't expect you to be a Dan Master."

Nie Weiwei's eyes were shining, full of curiosity, and she smiled happily:

"By the way, you left too much last time, why don't I invite you to dinner, let's talk while eating."

Lin Dongjiu knew that Nie Weiwei was a hearty person, and was about to reply, but saw Yin Xiaodie biting her lip and walking over with an unhappy face.

Yin Xiaodie stepped forward and directly hugged Lin Dongjiu's arm, and asked delicately:

"Husband, who is she?"

After speaking, he glanced at Nie Weiwei secretly, his eyes full of undisguised hostility.

Lin Dongjiu: "? ”

Nie Weiwei's smile suddenly froze, and her curved eyelashes trembled slightly.

Lin Dongjiu quietly wanted to withdraw his arm, but found that he couldn't break free.

He was helpless in his heart, so he had to laugh dryly:

"Don't mess around, this is Miss Nie, my good friend. Miss Nie, her name is Yin Xiaodie, and she is..."

Yin Xiaodie glanced at Lin Dongjiu, sighed secretly, snatched his words, and explained softly:

"Hello Miss Nie, I'm his sister."

Nie Weiwei suddenly thought that Yin Xiaodie was a naughty sister, and couldn't help laughing:

"So that's the case, I thought Brother Lin was married."

"But it's coming soon," Yin muttered quietly.

Lin Dongjiu glanced at the melon-eating crowd not far away, and said:

"Let's go, this is not a place to chat, let's go to the restaurant."

Lin Dongjiu took Nie Weiwei and Yin Xiaodie through the crowd, and the people on both sides consciously made a wide road for them to come out, looking at them one by one like looking at a disaster star, lest they avoid it.

Is my deterrent so great... Lin Dongjiu shook his head secretly, just thinking that they mistakenly thought that he was the Dan King, and he didn't think much about it.

Looking for a restaurant, Lin Dongjiu and a few people walked in, Nie Weiwei said that he wanted to have a treat, so he didn't fight, and let Nie Weiwei do it.

entered a private room, because Yin Xiaodie's sister was there, Nie Weiwei was embarrassed to ask Lin Dongjiu too much, but just toasted him:

"Brother Lin, I still have to thank you for what happened last time, recently I plan to wash my hands in a golden basin and stop doing it."

Lin Dongjiu nodded: "This is a good thing, so what are your plans next?" ”

Nie Weiwei thought about it very seriously and smiled:

"I haven't thought about it yet, maybe I will leave the Lingyun Country, go to the end of the world, and see the outside world. But it's going to take a while, and I still have some things that I haven't taken care of. ”

Yin Xiaodie, who had been silent, raised her head when she heard this, with a hint of yearning in her eyes, and said to Nie Weiwei with her chin in her hands:

"Miss Nie is really enviable, and I sometimes think that if only I could go out for a walk freely.

But I will be greedy to think, if a person will not feel bored, if someone accompanies him, then go outside to see the prosperity of the world, and there are no regrets in this life. ”

Nie Weiwei glanced at Lin Dongjiu without a trace, as if the wine was getting stronger, there were two blush on her delicate cheeks, and a strand of hair touched her lips, adding some unique charm to her.

She sighed faintly:

"Fluttershy, you're right, you're going to be a little lonely. I was an orphan since I was a child, and I was raised by my master who I hadn't seen for a few months, and I was used to being alone.

Even if I can't find the person who accompanied me on my journey, what does it matter? ”

She changed her tone again and said with a smile: "But you're different, you can let your brother accompany you." ”

Yin Xiaodie pouted, and her tone was a little resentful:

"He thinks I'm a burden, and he always wants to send me home, and I'm alone at home, how can you say he can rest assured."

Yin Xiaodie gently pushed Lin Dongjiu's shoulder, and said coquettishly:

"Isn't it, brother~"

The voice was very crisp, and Lin Dongjiu felt like he had been channeled by an electric current, which made him numb.

He straightened his face and said mercilessly: "You better go home, I want to send you home now." ”

"Miss Nie..."

Yin Xiaodie looked at Nie Weiwei pitifully, hoping that she would help her say a few words.

Nie Weiwei giggled when she was amused: "Your brother is very skilled, he said that these are teasing you, don't care." ”

The brother and sister have a really good relationship... Nie Weiwei secretly had a little envy.

"Eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables..."

Lin Dongjiu kept picking up vegetables for the two girls, and deliberately skipped this topic.

Maybe it's been a long time since she was depressed, Nie Weiwei's little mouth hasn't heard it, and she talked a lot to Lin Dongjiu and Yin Xiaodie, talking about some of what she saw and heard in the immortal cultivation world and the secular world.

Not to mention, although Lin Dongjiu felt that Nie Weiwei's life was a little harder, it was very exciting, he listened to it with relish, and was secretly fascinated by the life she said.

Yin Xiaodie was also listening intently, yearning for Nie Weiwei's unrestrained life.

The theory of siege that people often talk about must be so.

As the atmosphere heated up, Lin Dongjiu felt more and more that he and Nie Weiwei had an inexplicable sense of intimacy, there was no distance between each other, just like childhood sweethearts who lived together when they were children, familiar can no longer be familiar, which made him want to ask:

Have we seen this before?

But after thinking about it, I always feel that asking this kind of thing is like a clichΓ© conversation, and it will not be good if it makes the atmosphere cold again.

The banquet was coming to an end, after everyone was full of wine and food, Nie Weiwei settled the account, and at the door of the restaurant, she said goodbye to Lin Dongjiu and Nie Weiwei, saying that she had something to do.

Lin Dongjiu watched her go away, Yin Xiaodie shook her head secretly, and sighed in a low voice: "This stupid girl..."

"What?" Lin Dongjiu wondered.

Yin Xiaodie stuck out her tongue: "It's nothing, the slave family is talking to themselves." ”

She asked again: "Benefactor, where are you going to go next, don't you really want to send the slave family home?" ”

Lin Dongjiu's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice: "I'm going to the City Lord's Mansion for a banquet..."

"Kill someone by the way!"

Yin Xiaodie's eyes were complicated, and she grabbed his arm: "The slave family is also going." ”

"It's fine."

Lin Dongjiu narrowed his eyes and led her towards the City Lord's Mansion.

It's time for an end...

Along the way, neither of them spoke.

The sky is getting overcast, and the autumn wind is no longer a gentle beast, dispersing the residual temperature of noon for people, but whistling angrily, rolling up large sand and dust debris, and large dark clouds are floating quickly overhead, heralding a heavy rain is coming.

The merchant on the street had already packed up his pavement, carried a flat shoulder, looked at the empty street, and couldn't help but pull his tone and sing loudly:

"The storm is coming, and the city is empty;

The small building listens to the wind;

Yellow flowers wipe the rain a little red;

...”

When they arrived at the City Gate Mansion, the two were led into the mansion by the door.

In a brightly lit hall, there are three tables of banquets, which are full of guests, and the noise and excitement are endless.

However, they have not moved their chopsticks yet, as if waiting for the arrival of a heavyweight figure.

Approaching the hall, Lin Dongjiu glanced at it and found many familiar faces.

It turned out that they were the Danshi who participated in the general election with him in the afternoon, and most of them were in the top ten.

And those guests sitting next to these Dan masters, Lin Dongjiu guessed that they were the people in power of the forces to which they belonged.

I heard that Baicaodi is the dominant family in the Lingyun Guodan Dao Realm, and the purpose of the two seniors to organize this banquet is nothing more than to communicate in the industry, or to win over and show goodwill.

Bored...

But Lin Dongjiu doesn't care, anyway, he didn't really come to the banquet, whatever they tossed, as long as it didn't affect him.

Jia Wen and Lao Li saw Lin Dongjiu and Yin Xiaodie present, and smiled at everyone: "Hey, our Dan King is here." ”

Everyone turned their heads to look at Lin Dongjiu, with a smile on their faces, and greeted him one after another.

Lin Dongjiu responded with a smile, and the scene was very lively.

Chen Yi, who was sitting in the first place, looked at Lin Dongjiu meaningfully, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a sneer.

Jia Wen pointed to the seat next to him and beckoned to Lin Dongjiu:

"Lin Xiaoyou, take your Taoist companion to sit here."

With that, he glanced at the disciple next to him, and the disciple immediately moved a stool over.

Lin Dongjiu didn't move, and hugged his fists towards Jia Wen and Lao Li:

"I'm here to attend the banquet today, first, to thank the two seniors for the invitation."

"Two..."

Lin Dongjiu's smile immediately retracted, his gaze skimmed over everyone, looked directly at Chen Yi in the first place, and sneered:

"The second is to settle some personal grievances with Chen Dongsheng and Chen City Lord."

"This..."

Everyone looked at each other, a little at a loss.

Jia Wen glanced at Chen Yi, who was expressionless, and also realized the seriousness of the matter, so he hurriedly made a round:

"Lin Xiaoyou must have some misunderstanding with City Lord Chen, but taking advantage of this banquet, it would be good to clarify any misunderstanding, why bother..."

Lin Dongjiu waved his hand and interrupted him: "Senior Jia, after I finish dealing with the grievances with City Lord Chen, he will visit Baicaodi in the future, and it will not be too late for us to have a few more drinks then." ”

Javen frowned and fell silent.

The purpose of his banquet for Lin Dongjiu today was to let him go to Baicaodi as a guest, and now that the goal has been achieved, how could he be stupid enough to be a peacemaker again, so as not to get into trouble.

Besides, he and Chen Dongsheng are not familiar with each other, just a city lord.

If he had to help one of the two, he would inevitably do it out of interests, and he would not help Chen Dongsheng if he helped Lin Dongjiu.

Jia Wen's attitude was already obvious, how could the rest of the people meddle in their affairs, and even some Dan masters with low cultivation had already left their seats and hid far away, for fear of provoking fire.

Lin Dongjiu hugged everyone again, and didn't forget to say the last sentence to Yin Xiaodie:

"What do you choose?"

Yin Xiaodie's expression froze, and she sighed faintly, "Did you still let you know..."

Before she finished speaking, Yin Xiaodie shook her head and silently stepped aside.

Lin Dongjiu didn't say anything more, just looked at Yin Xiaodie for a while, with a deep disappointment in his eyes.

Yin Xiaodie didn't want to look at Lin Dongjiu, but the feeling of emptiness in her heart became heavier and heavier, and there was an indescribable feeling lingering in her heart.

"Are you finished?"

Chen Yi spoke, with provocation and contempt.

He slowly stood up, left his seat, and walked towards Lin Dongjiu step by step.

Lin Dongjiu twisted his neck, making a "clucking" sound, and he sacrificed the Qingguang Sword and pointed it at Chen Yi:

"It's hard to see you, so it's better to take advantage of today to put an end to the previous grievances and grievances, my good senior brother."

Chen Yi raised his hand to clamp Lin Dongjiu's blue light sword, and laughed softly:

"Eh, my good junior brother, we were a family before, and we will be a family in the future."

Chen Yi's fingers exerted a slight force, and the Qingguang Sword immediately vibrated with a clear sound:

"But it's hard not to make me, a senior brother, angry at your own family!"

Lin Dongjiu's expression was immobile on the surface, and his heart was dark, he found that Chen Yi seemed to have become stronger compared to the last fight!

Lin Dongjiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "My own family?" Is it because of her? ”

Who Lin Dongjiu said she was, Chen Yi naturally knew it.

He glanced at the cold-faced butterfly phantom clothes, and said with a faint smile:

"Why bother asking me, don't you just ask her?"

"Wishful thinking..."

As soon as the words fell, Lin Dongjiu made a shocked move, the tip of the sword shook, broke away from Chen Yi's palm, raised the sword and stabbed forward, the sword light flashed suddenly, and the sword flowers rolled up one after another, like flower buds blooming in the void, the light and shadow were mixed, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and fiction.

Chen Yi and Lin Dongjiu distanced themselves somewhat, but instead of dodging, he pulled out a long knife and slashed at the illusory sword flower that attacked around him.

"Senior brother, the speed at which your strength has increased is really surprising to me. However, today's me is no longer the one you almost killed that night. ”

Chen Yi said while chopping, the atmosphere was not breathing, and it was easy and casual to deal with Lin Dongjiu's endless sword moves.

Lin Dongjiu swung his sword faster and faster, the hall was almost overwhelmed by layers of swords, those tables of banquets were shattered, the guests had already moved out of the hall, and the entire hall was in a mess.

As soon as Chen Yi slashed with his horizontal knife, all of Lin Dongjiu's attacks disappeared in an instant, his face turned grim, he jumped up with a knife in both hands, and slashed down at Lin Dongjiu's head.

Lin Dongjiu's face became a little solemn, the six main veins in his body were fully opened, and the majestic spiritual power made his sleeves rise, and the green tendons burst out, and he raised the blade of the sword to block the top of his head, resisting Chen Yi's blow.

While!!

The swords intersected, causing a large spark, and the floor tiles that Lin Dongjiu stepped on exploded, and the strong air flow stirred up the house full of debris, breaking the doors and windows and blowing outward.

Everyone covered their faces with their sleeves, and Lao Li said to Jia Wen with a shocked face:

"I didn't expect Lin Xiaoyou to be not only a Dan Dao wizard, but also so strong!"

Jia Wen also exclaimed: "City Lord Chen is in the infant realm, and Lin Xiaoyou is only building the foundation, under the gap between the two realms, Lin Xiaoyou can actually fight on par with City Lord Chen, it is really unbelievable!" ”

Lao Li caught the figure of Lin Dongjiu and Chen Dongsheng fighting in the hall, squinted his eyes and said:

"Lin Xiaoyou has such achievements at such a young age, I'm afraid that the master who taught him has an unusual background!"

"Lao Jia, I suspect that Lin Xiaoyou's master is likely to be the master who killed the Fengyin Sect, otherwise with Lin Xiaoyou's talent, his reputation would have already spread throughout the Lingyun Kingdom."

Jia Wen pinched his beard and said in a deep voice:

"If Lin Xiaoyou is defeated by City Lord Chen, should we help?"

Lao Li groaned for a while, but still shook his head and said, "No!" ”

"Chen Dongsheng is the city lord appointed by the Yin family, although my hundred grass land is powerful, but the foundation is still in the Lingyun Kingdom, if you forcibly intervene in the disputes and fight with the Yin family, the sect master will only blame us and others, and the gains outweigh the losses."

Jia Wen nodded: "What you said makes sense, as outsiders, we should wait and see what happens." ”

The fighting in the hall continued, but the situation was by no means optimistic for Lin Dongjiu.

He was beaten by Chen Yi and retreated, his clothes were torn, revealing bloody wounds, and the more serious wounds were already boneless.

According to Lin Dongjiu's previous plan, it was to fight with Chen Yi first, then get rid of Yin Xiaodie, and then quickly capture Chen Yi and return to the sect.

As for whether Yin Xiaodie would stop him, he didn't care.

Because Yin Xiaodie himself has no cultivation, he can't stop him if he wants to.

If Lin Dongjiu guessed correctly, Yin Xiaodie is likely to be a fake of a big man.

And the reason why he didn't have a showdown with Yin Xiaodie earlier was because he was afraid that his inference would be wrong, and second, he was afraid that a direct showdown would cause a backlash from the forces behind Yin Xiaodie.

If he hadn't met Chen Yi in Crescent Moon City, he would have been with Yin Xiaodie for a while, and he would have prepared more back-ups to deal with her.

After all, Yin Xiaodie's purpose for coming to her side is not difficult to guess, it is nothing more than trying to test all his means.

And judging from Yin Xiaodie's attitude now, all his previous doubts have been understood.

Yin Xiaodie and Chen Yi are in the same group, so Chen Yi will know his identity, and the one behind Yin Xiaodie should be the red clothes of the Demon Palace.

Inserting Yin Xiaodie by his side, it is estimated that the old ancestor made a move to destroy the Fengyin Gate and caused the jealousy of the Demon Palace, so the Illusion Sect that came to find trouble that night should also be one of the forces under the command of the Demon Palace, and its purpose is to test the reality of the Old Ancestor.

I have to say that their purpose did succeed.

Later, the Phantom Sect suddenly withdrew, which should also be Yin Xiaodie's instructions.

It's just that what Lin Dongjiu doesn't understand is what kind of psychology Yin Xiaodie suddenly withdrew from the Phantom Sect.

Are you afraid that you will be clumsy, so you plan to lurk for a while?

Judging from Chen Yi's identity, he can sit in the position of the city lord of Crescent Moon City, and he may not be able to guarantee that the Yin family has been infiltrated by the Demon Palace, so Yin Tao will all go to the Fenglong Palace to find the old sect master for help.

If you think about it further, it is estimated that the destruction of Crescent Moon City has a great relationship with the Demon Palace!

After figuring it all out, Lin Dongjiu understood why the Sorrowful Heaven Grievance would say that the Demon Hall had played a big game of chess in the Lingyun Kingdom.

Even the Yin family has become a pawn in the Demon Palace, and I have to say that this game of chess is indeed too big!

If the Demon Hall was allowed to continue to develop, Lin Dongjiu would no longer dare to think that it would be a huge catastrophe that would sweep through the entire Lingyun Kingdom, and no one would be spared!

In the flash of light, Lin Dongjiu's thoughts turned sharply back, this time he came to the banquet, he was also thoughtful, he could not only capture Chen Yi alive but also have a showdown with Yin Xiaodie, killing two birds with one stone.

But he didn't expect Chen Yixiu to improve so quickly, which was much beyond his imagination!

I thought the opportunity was rare, but I didn't expect it to be because I was in a hurry... Lin Dongjiu reflected slightly, but saw that the sword shadow in front of him was divided into four, blocking all his retreats.

He didn't dare to think about it anymore, and hurriedly played the Nine Flames Burning Dragon Decision, supplemented by the Root Spirit Creation Decision, the hall where the two of them were located was filled with phantom beasts, and it collapsed in an instant, and the overflowing red flames danced like dragons, Jia Wen and Lao Li Lian and a group of bigwigs saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly rolled up the Dan Shi present and quickly evacuated the City Lord's Mansion.

Boom Boom!!

A huge wave of flames rose into the sky, sweeping away the dark clouds in the sky, and the continuous explosions resounded throughout Crescent City, and the City Lord's Mansion was in ruins in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, many eyes in Crescent Moon City converged on the City Lord's Mansion, and countless forces heard the wind and hurried towards the City Lord's Mansion.

And not far from the City Lord's Mansion, on the roof of a building, there stood a woman dressed in tight black clothes with a veiled head, she looked at the City Lord's Mansion, which was already a sea of fire, stunned and at a loss.

At this time, the accident arose again, and in the sea of fire, a streamer suddenly burst out, straight into the sky.

Under the streamer, another streamer followed.

The two streamers chased each other in the sea of clouds, entwined, and inseparable.

Unfortunately, the dark clouds were so thick that it was impossible to see what was going on, and they could only see patches of white light from time to time in the dense clouds, like lightning across the night sky, but no thunder came out.

In a few breaths, the situation changed again, and under everyone's attention, a streamer of light fell straight down from the sky, like a trailing meteor, and smashed back into the ruins of the City Lord's Mansion.

Bang!

A big pit was smashed out of the ground, Lin Dongjiu was lying in the pit, his face was covered with blood, and he didn't even have the strength to move his fingers, but he heard Chen Yi's voice getting closer and closer:

"Ahh In vain, I slaughtered dozens of villages and killed nearly 10,000 people, and the power obtained from blood sacrifice is really trembling! ”

Chen Yi jumped down the pit and looked at Lin Dongjiu indifferently:

"Senior brother, senior brother knows what you have been pursuing all these years, isn't it strength? Then join the Demon Temple, and the Immortal will satisfy all your desires! ”

Lin Dongjiu tried hard not to close his eyes, glared at Chen Yi viciously, his lips trembled slightly, and he spit out a mouthful of blood with the last of his strength:

"Phew!"

The corners of Chen Yi's face twitched, the corners of his forehead jumped straight, and he was about to swing the knife when he raised his knife:

"Stubborn, you don't deserve to be a demon disciple of the Hades, you have to reflect on it in your next life!"

"Enough!"

A cold drink came, Lin Dongjiu's eyes were instantly shrouded in purple light, and before he was completely unconscious, he vaguely heard a familiar and unfamiliar voice ringing in his ears:

"It's useful to keep him..."
