Chapter 42: During the Feast
At the end of Fengluo Street, there is a huge mansion, in front of which is a stone lion with one-man height and teeth and claws. Next to the stone lion, there stood two rows of young warriors with flying expressions and awe-inspiring momentum. When his eyes touched the huge word "ancient" on the hanging plaque, the seemingly smiling faces of the young warriors could no longer hide that pride in them.
Because this is the ancient Xuanmen!
At this time, it was almost dusk, and it was already half an hour before the banquet began, and the invited guests were already seated in the banquet. Although there are not many people in Qingyuan City who are qualified to be invited by Gu Xuanmen or have a strong force, after all, it is a whole city, and there are a lot of people who gather together.
There are a total of 22 tables for the banquet, and according to the identity relationship, they are slowly arranged from the door to the door. Just like the Bai family and the Earth Spirit Sect, of course, they are sitting at the innermost table.
"Why didn't I see Granny Ji this time. At the largest banquet, Liu Yanxian shook the wine glass in his hand, suddenly raised his head, and asked Bai Rongxuan with a concerned face: "It is rumored that Granny Ji is in poor health, and I don't know what to ......do."
"Thank you Brother Liu for your concern, although Granny Ji is a little sick, it doesn't matter much, I think I can recover in a few days with a little pranayama. Bai Rongxuan interrupted Liu Yanxian's words and said.
"Uncle Liu, why didn't you see Brother Jun Hao this time?" At this moment, beside Liu Yanxian, a girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old suddenly raised her head and opened her mouth prettyly.
The girl is dressed in pale yellow clothes, fair skin, and extremely beautiful appearance, although it has not yet fully developed, but it is already a rare beauty embryo.
However, when his gaze touched this girl, the complexion on Bai Rongxuan's face was obviously gloomy.
Before Bai Rongxuan could speak, Liu Yanxian, who was beside the girl, raised his eyebrows, made a stern expression, and said, "Nonsense, since Brother Bai didn't bring Jun Hao's nephew over, there must be something delayed." After speaking, Liu Yanxian said to Bai Rongxuan with an apologetic face: "The little girl Ruoyi is still not sensible, I hope Brother Bai doesn't mind." ”
This beautiful girl in pale yellow clothes is Liu Yanxian's only daughter, Liu Ruoyi!
"Ignorant?" the middle-aged man who looked like a butler beside Bai Rongxuan laughed twice.
On the Zhenwu Continent, at the age of fourteen, he can already be the master of the house, and he can be regarded as an adult. And now Fang Ling is fifteen, and as Liu Yanxian's only daughter, Liu Ruoyi, who has always been known as smart in Qingyuan City, is really ignorant, then it is a real joke. But of course, it is impossible to say these words directly at the moment, but these two strange laughs are enough to say a lot.
The identity gap between master and slave is huge, and it stands to reason that even the most charitable master cannot eat at the same table with a slave. Moreover, at this kind of banquet, even if Bai Rongxuan could agree, it would be impossible for others to let a Bai family's housekeeper enter the banquet together, let alone intervene without authorization.
However, when the words of the middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper fell, it was rare that no one jumped out to accuse. Even Liu Yanxian, when his eyes touched this middle-aged man, his expression rarely revealed a little undetectable jealousy.
"Don't talk too much about it. Bai Rongxuan opened his mouth lightly, and there was not the slightest rebuke in his words.
"Yes. The middle-aged man named Tan Yan took advantage of the situation and did not speak again. However, after this trouble, the atmosphere in this banquet seemed slightly weird.
"Ha Luha, today is Brother Liu's fiftieth birthday. I will not say anything else today, just to celebrate Brother Liu's birthday. A rough laugh broke the strange atmosphere around him, Lu Hao had a smile on his face, raised the wine glass in his hand, and signaled to Liu Yanxian and Bai Junhao from afar, and then drank it all.
After Lu Hao's interruption, the atmosphere around him was much better. It's not very harmonious, but at least it's not as contradictory as before.
Drinking all the wine in the cup, Bai Rongxuan still didn't have much smile on his face, but he was a little irritable for no reason. This feeling of irritability had existed since the faint fluctuation that had come from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion before. At that time, if he hadn't noticed the surprise of Lu Hao and Liu Yanxian, Bai Rongxuan would almost have been unable to help but return at that time.
Although Granny Ji's body was not much ill in his words, Bai Rongxuan still had some understanding of Granny Ji's real situation. Affected by the powerful backlash of the icy color, Granny Ji's body has been severely damaged, and it is already excellent that her strength can be exerted six or seven times out of ten. In such a state, it can be said that it is extremely dangerous if someone really calculates it.
"It should be fine. Bai Rongxuan muttered to himself, a glint in his eyes.
A powerhouse of the Spirit Silence Realm, even if he can only exert his original strength of six or seven percent, it is definitely not something that a martial artist of the Nine Heavens of the Quenching Blood Realm can threaten. Even if you can't beat it, if you want to escape, it will be difficult to stop it without the cultivation of the Spirit Silence Realm, not to mention that there are many secret passages in the Ice Spirit Courtyard.
As soon as he thought of this, Bai Rongxuan's complexion looked slightly better.
But at this moment, at the door of this huge hall that contained a full twenty-two tables, a panicked figure suddenly stumbled in.
As soon as this figure appeared, it attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
"Presumptuous!Who let him in?" Liu Yanxian's eyes suddenly became gloomy.
At this time, the banquet had already begun, and the invited guests were all full, who was this person? Gu Xuanmen actually let such a stranger break in, where was his face Liu Yanxian?!
As soon as Liu Yanxian's angry shouts sounded, in the corners around the hall, there were warrior-like figures rushing out, and without saying a word, he wanted to set up the figure who had just entered the hall and left.
That's when —
"Wait a minute. Bai Rongxuan's face changed, and he opened his mouth to stop.
"Huh?" Raising his eyebrows, Liu Yanxian looked at Bai Rongxuan, whose face changed, and waved his hand, letting go of this strange figure. "Is this person Brother Bai's subordinate?" Liu Yanxian's words were a little unkind.
If Bai Rongxuan wants to bring someone to this banquet, no matter who he brings, Liu Yanxian will not have any opinions. But at this time, the banquet had already begun, and it was a shame for him that such a stranger suddenly broke in. Liu Yanxian is naturally extremely disliked.
However, what is surprising is that Bai Rongxuan didn't even answer Liu Yanxian, but just looked at the panicked figure with a gloomy gaze, and said in a low voice: "What's the matter?"
"Ice Spirit Courtyard ...... Something went wrong. Gasping for breath, the man spoke intermittently.
