Chapter 174: Evil Slaves Deceive People
I don't know how long it has passed.
The rune light on Li Zhou's body slowly dimmed, and his momentum slowly converged.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar white-clothed figure standing in front of him.
"Brother Chen!" Li Zhou was stunned for a moment.
"It's really time for you to break the mirror!" Chen Changan smiled faintly and said.
"What time?" Li Zhou wondered.
"The White Emperor's birthday banquet is just about to start, and you just happened to break the mirror, isn't it time?" Chen Changan said with a smile.
"What!"
Li Zhou stood up abruptly, grabbed Chen Changan's arm and said, "Did we miss the White Emperor's birthday banquet?"
Chen Changan's eyes swept and said: "It's not that you missed it, but it should almost start, if you wake up late, I'm afraid you really missed it." ”
Li Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What about Bai Ya?"
Chen Changan spread his hands and said: "The birthday banquet of the White Emperor is about to start, how can she, the princess, be absent and leave first!"
Li Zhou's eyes flashed with a nervous look when he heard this, and said, "Then let's go too, we can't miss the time!"
As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Changan's arm and walked out the door.
"Don't worry, Bai Ya has already prepared carriages and horses for us!"
Outside the White Mansion, a carriage pulled by a demon horse galloped towards the White Emperor Palace.
Today is the White Emperor's birthday, and all the forces from all parties who are ready to participate in the Demon Moon Secret Realm have basically rushed in advance to prepare for the Demon Emperor's birthday banquet, even if some small forces are not qualified to enter the White Emperor's Palace, they will naturally send a congratulatory gift symbolically.
A congratulatory gift, if you can befriend the White Emperor, it is simply a great gift, even if you can't make friends, it doesn't matter, after all, it's good if you have your heart.
Outside the huge White Emperor Palace, thousands of black-armored guards guarded the surroundings.
People from all forces, regardless of their cultivation or status, lined up outside the palace gate and entered the palace in an orderly manner to celebrate their birthday.
Outside this ancient palace gate, a team of various treasure horses gathered.
There are white horses with three dragon horns, demon pythons covered with dark red scales, and divine turtles with rune aura shrouded in at least seventh-order demon beasts...... The forces of all parties are not only going to congratulate the White Emperor on his birthday, but also to fight for a face, and the mount they are riding is naturally part of the side they are fighting for, so naturally the stronger and more rare the better.
The sons and ladies of these forces sat on these mounts, and their faces were all proud, as if they wanted people to look up to them.
Most of these people are the juniors of these forces who are going to arrange to enter the Demon Moon Secret Realm this time, and they should all be outstanding children of their forces, and it is common for them to be arrogant.
Compared with the mounts of these forces, the demon carriage that Chen Changan and Li Zhou rode was much more shabby.
There are still two small doors open on the side of the palace gate, but those two small doors do not let people through, but let those small forces who go in to celebrate their birthdays give birthday gifts and then exit to use, and there are also many people who are coming out.
Although the queue was long, the movements of all forces were not slow, and soon Chen Chang'an and their carriage entered the palace.
"White Emperor Palace!"
Outside a huge hall, congratulations came from all directions.
Many of the powerful men dismounted at the foot of the steps, and then led men forward to give a congratulatory gift, which was placed on the side of the main hall, and they turned around and left without even entering the temple door.
This may seem rude to the congratulators, but the givers are delighted.
Everyone knows very well that the one who can step into the palace gate must at least be the number one sect in Yunzhou, and some small forces and sects are not qualified at all, so they can take a look at it, and they are already satisfied, at least after going back, they can boast to outsiders that they have come to participate in the birthday banquet of the White Emperor.
Soon it was Chen Chang'an's turn to take them, and the three of them got down from the inconspicuous demon carriage, and then walked to the front of the palace gate.
There is a force ahead of them.
They were a group of five or six people, dressed in brocade robes, and their bodies were full of strong demonic energy, obviously they were people of the demon clan, and they were also powerful demon clans.
One of them, a middle-aged man, flipped his hand and took out a gilded invitation card and handed it to an old man in charge of the street outside the door of the temple.
The old man handed it back without even looking at the invitation, and a flattering smile appeared on his dry old face, and he bowed to greet him.
"Lord Bai has arrived, please come in!"
The middle-aged man took the invitation, and then walked directly into the temple.
When it was Chen Changan's turn, the smile on the face of the old man who was in charge of greeting disappeared instantly, and he glanced at the demon carriage parked on the side of the steps behind him, and the old face instantly became indifferent, and said, "Just put the congratulatory gift aside!"
Chen Changan's eyes wrinkled, and he said, "We are here to attend the birthday banquet!"
This old man's attitude is really not very likeable.
The old man's eyes swept away, and he snorted disdainfully: "Don't you recognize yourself clearly? People who don't have invitations to the White Emperor's birthday banquet are not qualified to enter the palace, and letting you dogs give congratulatory gifts is already a chance for you, don't dream about it!"
"Old thing, who are you scolding?" Li Zhou on one side immediately became angry and said.
The old man's old eyes swept contemptuously and said, "I didn't scold!"
Although he said this, the corners of his mouth snorted coldly, and he said in a very low voice: "A group of people who are not as good as dogs really can't recognize themselves!"
Although his voice was low, it was enough for a cultivator to be heard clearly by being so close.
Many cultivators gathered at the foot of the stairs to watch with the idea of watching the play.
"Old thing, you beg to beat ......" Li Zhou was angry and wanted to make a move, but was stopped by Chen Changan.
The old man looked at Li Zhou and smiled coldly, with a mocking look in his old eyes, as if telling Li Zhou that he would do it if he had a kind.
Chen Changan took a step forward, looked at the old man in front of him, and said coldly: "We have an invitation!"
As he spoke, he flipped over and took out two chapters of the invitation card and handed it to the old man.
These two invitations were sent to Li Zhou by Bai Ya before, and Li Zhou gave them to Chen Changan when he was in Kunlun City.
The old man's eyes froze, and his heartstrings tightened suddenly, could it be that these three people in front of him were the disciples of a big force who deliberately lowered their shelves and sat in a demon carriage to celebrate their birthdays?
His withered old hand subconsciously stretched out, took the invitation and looked at it, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
I saw no more than two ordinary invitations, which were just two young cultivators invited to the birthday banquet.
There were also many such invitations in previous years, most of them invited those outstanding cultivators in Yunzhou, but these cultivators were nothing at all, after all, there were many outstanding junior cultivators in the entire Yunzhou, as long as they were not among the best in the Qingyun Book or the Tianjiao of the Twelve Laws of Yunzhou, he didn't need to care at all.
In his impression, the top group of Tianjiao in Yunzhou have a strong force behind them, even if they come to participate in the birthday banquet, they will come with the elders of the power, and it is absolutely impossible to let the three young juniors go together.
"You two can get in, but she can't!"
The old man casually handed the two invitations back to Chen Changan, and said in a disdainful tone.
"What do you mean!"
Chen Changan didn't pick up the two invitations, his eyes were cold, and his tone was cold, "If I'm not mistaken, the one who went in front of him only had one invitation in his hand, but he brought five people in, why can't we?"
"Why?"
The old man smiled, the contempt and disdain on the old man's face were even worse, and said: "Do you know who that one is, he is the second elder of the Bai family, do you think your identity is worthy of being compared to him? Moreover, he is a disciple of the Bai family, do you think this cripple you brought is worthy of being compared to the Bai family? ridiculous!"
Chen Changan's eyes were cold, and he obviously felt Ji Qingyu's hand behind him tremble.
"Who do you say is a cripple?" Chen Changan said in a cold voice, Ji Qingyu was brought by him, if he was humiliated because of this, then he would never allow it.
"Do you still bring anyone else?" the old man looked at Chen Changan's angry face and sneered, and then he threw the two invitations in his hand directly into Chen Changan's face.
"Love can't enter, shame on face!"
He didn't suppress this voice, so that the cultivators of all forces under the steps could hear it clearly.
As a servant of the White Emperor Palace, he rarely has the opportunity to play prestige in front of so many forces on weekdays, and he naturally can't let go of it when he encounters it today.
However, before he could rejoice for two more seconds, a chill came down on him.
The invitation card in front of Chen Changan was quietly crushed by a force.
"Smack!"
A crisp palm sound sounded quietly.
The old man's face was directly tilted, and then his entire body was pumped up and smashed on the threshold of the main hall behind him.
"Repeat, who is the cripple?"
A surging momentum erupted in Chen Changan's body, blowing his full head of black hair, and making the white-clothed hunting sound.
The cold voice exploded like thunder outside the White Emperor Palace.
Under the steps outside the hall, people from all sides were stunned.
I felt that the young man in front of the hall was so domineering, and then he was stunned and felt that he was pitifully stupid.
"Who is that young man, who dares to do it outside the gate of the White Emperor Palace?"
"I don't know, just look at that car, it shouldn't be a disciple from a famous family!"
"Then don't you have a good show today?"
People from all sides were intently focused and discussed.
The old man who was pumped to the ground was also stunned, feeling the hot pain on his face, and when the dry old hand touched the corner of his mouth, there were already blood oozing out.
He looked at Chen Changan, not angry, but laughing.
"You're done......"
His old eyes stared at Chen Changan, like a vulture looking into the eyes of a dead man, and slowly stood up, and a hoarse voice came out of his mouth, saying that he had lost two teeth.
His appearance looks extremely infiltrating, but Chen Changan's face does not change.
"Who dares to make trouble here?"
At this moment, a gorgeous woman wearing a black cheongsam appeared outside the door of the main hall out of thin air.
As soon as her figure appeared, the old man knelt on the ground with a "plop", knocked his head on the ground, and cried loudly.
"Please be the master of the old slave!"
