The reason why Gu Linghua was shocked was because she didn't know that Lu Xiaoan had come to Huai'an City, and the panic was because Lu Xiaoan saw her come out to greet Yan Guyun in person. As for the surprise and doubt, it was because of Xiao Lu'er beside Lu Xiaoan.

Lu Xiao'an is the three, Lu Xiao'an walks in the middle, so Xiao Lu'er definitely can't accompany Yudonglai, then it can only be related to Lu Xiao'an.

Like Gu Linghua, Lu Xiao'an also had emotions such as surprise, panic and surprise in his eyes, also because of Yan Guyun and Xiao Lu'er beside the two.

Seeing Gu Linghua looking at Lu Xiaoan, Yan Guyun also looked over, and looking at the expressions of the two, his eyes gradually became sharper.

"You ......"

Gu Linghua just wanted to ask Lu Xiaoan when he came to Huai'an City, but Yan Guyun suddenly said, "Princess, let's go in!"

"Huh?"

Gu Linghua was stunned for a moment, and there was a brief blank in her mind under various emotions, so she subconsciously followed Yan Guyun inside, but it was too late after she reacted to Yan Guyun's sinister intentions.

Gu Linghua frowned, but now she couldn't offend Yan Guyun, because this was not only a matter of missing one ally, but also multiple enemies. There was no way, Gu Linghua could only endure the sadness in her heart and follow Yan Guyun to continue to walk inside, as for Lu Xiaoan, she could only wait for the opportunity to explain.

Outside the palace gate, watching Gu Linghua turn around and leave, Lu Xiaoan felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart, and he thought a lot for a while.

But he didn't show it, but Yu Donglai said strangely: "Big brother, why didn't she even say hello to you?"

At some point, Lu Xiaoan really wanted to use poison to poison Yudonglai, which was uncomfortable in his heart, and he came to block it, obviously because Lu Xiaoan was not uncomfortable enough.

Then Xiao Lu'er asked again: "Is she a princess, she is really good-looking, senior brother, are you very familiar with her?"

Lu Xiaoan put his hand on Yu Donglai's shoulder again and said, "When we were in the secret realm, we dealt with bad guys together. ”

"Is that so?"

Xiao Lu'er didn't ask anything more, and took the lead in walking towards the palace. Because they were invited, the palace guards naturally wouldn't stop a few people.

Gu Linghua invited the younger generation to get together, so naturally it was impossible to go to the main courtyard, only in her own courtyard. However, as the most beloved daughter of the lord of the country, Gu Linghua's courtyard is also elegant and atmospheric, luxurious but not exaggerated.

When I came to a courtyard, I saw a pond behind the courtyard, gardens on both sides, and a wide open space in front of it, which was just right for the competition.

There are more than a dozen low tables in the courtyard building, the one in the center is naturally the owner Gu Linghua's, and the first one on her left is already sitting Yan Guyun.

Gu Linghua naturally didn't only invite the children of the four major families, but in the past, the first four tables belonged to the four major families, and the disciples of the other families would take the initiative to sit in the back even if they came in advance.

But now the most popular table has been occupied by Yan Guyun, so which of the other three tables feels shorter than the other three if they don't sit on it.

Ji Tianlan and Ji Hanyun of the Ji family had already arrived, and the two of them sat in the first position on Gu Linghua's right hand. Lu Xiaoan and the others only had two choices, either sitting under Yan Guyun or sitting below the Ji brothers and sisters.

Compared with Yan Guyun, Lu Xiaoan is still willing to sit next to the brothers and sisters of the Ji family.

"Yudonglai!"

Just as they were about to pass, a soft cry suddenly came from behind the three of them. Lu Xiaoan looked back, and suddenly his eyes burst into flames.

There are four people who will come, it is the two brothers and sisters Gongsun Yi and Gongsun Qin, as well as Li Zhaoran and Li Wu.

Gongsun Yi and Li Zhaoran had both broken through to the Tongmai realm, and at this time, they seemed to be a little ignorant when they looked at Lu Xiaoan.

Gongsun Yi said to Yu Donglai: "You see that in the other three of us, there are people who have broken through the Tongmai realm, are you a qi practitioner embarrassed to sit with us?"

Yu Donglai was furious and was about to go back, but he saw Gongsun Qin beside Gongsun Yi somehow holding back his words. Lu Xiaoan naturally knew what was going on, and at this time, Gongsun Qin also looked at the two of them, his expression was quite complicated, but he didn't speak, and he didn't say hello.

Lu Xiaoan ignored Gongsun Yi, but said to Li Zhaoran: "Do you remember what I said?"

Li Zhaoran frowned, and then said, "Do you think you can still kill me?"

Lu Xiaoan said: "Then why don't you try?"

Looking at this situation, Gu Linghua also had a little headache, although the Gongsun family and the Ji family were both enemies of their Gu family, as long as they turned their faces for a day, the face that should be maintained still had to be maintained, which was a kind of shackle born in a big family.

With Gu Linghua's cleverness, she could naturally think that this seat would cause conflict, but she didn't want to set up a seat for Yan Guyun alone. If there was no Lu Xiaoan, she might really want to do that, but with Lu Xiaoan, she didn't want Lu Xiaoan to misunderstand more deeply that she had a special relationship with Yan Guyun.

After thinking about it, Gu Linghua suddenly said, "Come here, set up a seat next to me." ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, Gu Linghua smiled and said: "It's that I didn't think it through, Yu Donglai has been close to my brother Lingyu since he was a child, and he and I are naturally like sisters and brothers, just let him sit next to me!"

Gu Linghua's move has a deep meaning, the two families of the four major families in Huai'an City are hostile, the Li family is her own person, and the attitude of the Yu family is unknown, so she naturally wants to get closer to the relationship with Yu Donglai, and by the way, tell the Gongsun family and the Ji family, the Yu family and her Gu family are close.

On the other hand, on the surface, she was close to Yu Donglai, but she knew that Lu Xiaoan must understand her intentions, so that the previous misunderstanding could be resolved.

Sure enough, when Lu Xiaoan heard her say this, his eyes immediately changed, and he only felt that Gu Linghua must have had her difficulties before. Thinking of the situation that the Gu family is facing now, Lu Xiaoan even blamed himself for not understanding Gu Linghua enough.

Seeing that the maid put a low table on the side of Gu Linghua, Yan Guyun's eyes changed, and there was even a trace of doubt. With his cleverness, he naturally saw that Gu Linghua was not for Yu Donglai, but for Lu Xiaoan, because as long as he was not a fool at the gate of the palace, he knew that the relationship between the two was not ordinary.

This made him very puzzled, how could a guy who practiced qi at the sixth level get the favor of Gu Linghua?

But he didn't say anything, because he knew that something good would happen later.

Yan Guyun was indeed the head of the Yan family, Yan Guiqiu, who specially asked him to come to Huai'an City, so he naturally knew the current situation in Huai'an City, and said that he wanted to meet the young man in Huai'an City, but he actually wanted to bring people together, so as to see if the Yan family could get greater benefits by standing there.

Of course, Yan Guyun is also a little selfish. He is the Tianjiao of the Yan family, and he has always been cultivated by Yan Guiqiu as the head of the next generation, and his arrogance is also conceivable, so he wants to defeat the Tianjiao of the same generation in Huai'an City to prove that he is the most powerful one.

After Lu Xiao'an and the three of them sat down, Gu Linghua asked Yu Donglai, "I don't know who this little beauty is, why have I never seen it before?"

seems to be asking Yu Donglai, but in fact, Gu Linghua is asking Lu Xiaoan.

However, without waiting for Lu Xiaoan or Yu Donglai to answer, Xiao Lu'er gently pulled Lu Xiaoan's arm and said, "He is my senior brother, so I am naturally his junior sister!"

Xiao Lu'er's appearance at this time is very much like a kitten that protects food. Although she already knew that Lu Xiaoan and Zhou Zhaoyue had become Taoist couples, she was still a little ignorant about the relationship, thinking that it was a last resort for the two, so the possessiveness of 'senior brother is her own' still thrives in her heart.

"Senior sister!"

Gu Linghua looked at Lu Xiaoan and smiled slightly, and didn't give him a chance to speak, so she said to the others: "Since everyone has arrived, let's start, let me introduce to you first, this is Yan Guyun, the son of the Yan family in Yancheng." ”

For the Yan family, the sons and ladies of the four major families in Huai'an City must have known, so they greeted each other. Belch...... Yu Donglai didn't know, and he didn't plan to ignore Yan Guyun, so he put on an outstanding face.

As for the children of other families, some had heard of the Yan family's reputation, and some had not, but for the sake of Gu Linghua's face, they all said hello.

Yan Guyun returned the salute with a smile, and then said: "I heard that there are four beauties in Huai'an City, and I saw three beauties today, and they are really beautiful, but unfortunately there is still one beauty that I haven't seen." ”

Yan Guyun's tone was very regretful, and Yu Donglai suddenly couldn't help it, and said, "Don't you still have any ideas?"

Yan Guyun was not angry, but looked at Gu Linghua, Ji Hanyun and Li Wu, and said with a smile: "Beauty, who can not have any illusions!"

The four major families in Huai'an City, except for the Yu family, no one dares to offend Yan Guyun now, so he really wants to be as arrogant as he wants.

Yu Donglai is also an iron-headed overlord, so he immediately turned his head to Lu Xiaoan and said, "Big brother, I'll help you ......"

He originally wanted to help Lu Xiaoan teach Yan Guyun a lesson, but before he finished speaking, he was pressed by Lu Xiaoan's shoulder.

In fact, he is quite happy if he can really teach Yan Guyun and Lu Xiao'an, but let's not talk about whether he can teach a lesson, what does it mean to help him teach a lesson?

Yan Guyun glanced at Yu Donglai and pretended not to hear him.

Although Yan Guyun is arrogant, he is also very smart, he will not be the first to come out, because he prefers to treat others as monkeys.

Sure enough, he ignored Yu Donglai, and Gongsun Yi was the one who hated Yu Donglai the most, and when he heard this, he said: "Just you, do you want to teach the Tongmai Realm cultivators a lesson with the cultivation of the thirteenth layer of Qi cultivation that has just broken the map?"

Yu Donglai was a powder keg that exploded at a moment, and immediately said: "You and I are still afraid that you will not succeed, so I will try it if there is a kind." ”

The Heavenly Demon Forging Body gave Yu Donglai a lot of confidence, although he still had no bottom in his heart, but at least he had the courage to fight with Gongsun Yi. Unlike before, when Gongsun Yi bullied him, he could only endure it.

Gongsun Yi was also surprised by Yu Donglai's outbreak, and said: "Sure enough, the higher the cultivation, the more stupid my brain becomes, don't you think that I only have the cultivation of the Qi Realm!"

Yu Donglai was just about to continue to go back, but Gu Linghua said: "There will be a chance for you to learn from each other, now let's taste the spirit fruit in this Yunze Forest first!"

The spirit fruit that Gu Linghua took out to entertain everyone is naturally not bad, this fiery fruit is called gentian fruit, although eating such a thing is not helpful for cultivation, but the key is delicious. Moreover, this fruit was picked from the sea of clouds in the Yunze Forest, and even the children of the four major families could not eat it at any time.

However, just one fruit is definitely not enough, Gu Linghua also prepared other delicacies, and there was also piano music and singing and dancing for everyone during the period.

Just when everyone was drinking wine and eating delicious food, Yan Guyun suddenly said to Gu Linghua: "I heard that the princess plays the piano well, why don't you let everyone enjoy it?"

Lu Xiao'an suddenly glared at this guy, what kind of identity is Gu Linghua, how can he play the piano for him, isn't this treating Gu Linghua as a singer in Hualou?

However, Gu Linghua was not angry, she knew that Yan Guyun was testing her bottom line. If she obeyed because she wanted to win over the Yan family, then the face of the Gu family would be trampled under the feet of the Yan family, wouldn't she be asked for in the future?

Gu Linghua naturally couldn't agree, but how to refuse had to think about it, and she couldn't make enemies with Yan Guyun.

However, without waiting for Gu Linghua to think about it, Lu Xiaoan couldn't allow her to suffer such humiliation, so he sneered and said, "If you want to listen to the piano, why don't I play it for you?"

Xiao Lu'er said in surprise: "Senior brother, can you still play the piano?"

Lu Xiaoan couldn't help but glared at Xiao Lu'er, and Xiao Lu'er stuck out her tongue mischievously.

Yan Guyun glanced at Xiao Lu'er, then shook his head and smiled at Gu Linghua: "Look at me, you don't control your mouth, princess is not strange." ”

Originally, some people wanted to watch Lu Xiaoan and Yan Guyun fight, but Yan Guyun directly retreated. But Gu Linghua did not look down on Yan Guyun because of this, but felt that such a person was more difficult to deal with, even if Gu Linghua wanted to win over the Yan family, but how could this not be a game?

If you want someone to help, you have to pay the price, Gu Linghua naturally wants to pay as low as possible, but the Yan family is the opposite.

In the matter of winning over the Yan family, the Gu family is actually at a disadvantage, because what the Gongsun family wants to take away is the world of the Gu family, and he can even promise the Yan family half of the Guangyue country. As for the Gu family, it is definitely impossible to give up half of the country!

But no matter how difficult it is, Gu Linghua must work hard, otherwise the Gu family will really be finished. So Gu Linghua smiled slightly, and let this matter be over.

At this moment, Gongsun Yi raised his glass to Yan Guyun and said, "Brother Yan, you can come to our Gongsun house to sit when you have time, I have good wine and beautiful people to treat me." ”

Yan Guyun hurriedly responded with a smile: "It must be certain, I often hear that Brother Gongsun is the best among the younger generation in Huai'an, and today I saw that it was true." ”

Gongsun Yi invited Yan Guyun in front of Gu Linghua to slap Gu Linghua in the face, but Yan Guyun did not refuse, telling Gu Linghua that their Yan family had more than one choice.

Gu Linghua could only endure this, because Yan Guyun would inevitably contact the Gongsun family, and it was better to be generous than to obstruct it, which also showed the confidence of the Gu family.

Even if it's pretending to be confident!

However, Gu Linghua is obviously not the master who allows others to bully, and when he saw that eating and drinking were almost over at this time, he smiled and said: "Isn't Yan Gongzi going to see the strength of the younger generation in Huai'an City, they are all here at this time." ”

Yan Guyun said: "Does the princess want me to ask everyone for advice, I'm not so arrogant, by the way, it seems that someone is going to do it just now, so please ask them first, I will see and understand first, so as not to lose the face of the Yan family." ”

Yan Guyun said and looked at Gongsun Yi, although Gongsun Yi hated being instructed by others, but in order to win over Yan Guyun, he still had to stand up and turn his head to look at Yu Donglai's side.

Just when Yan Guyun thought that he was going to challenge Yu Donglai, Gongsun Yi said: "The surname Lu has the ability to fight!"

Yan Guyun was a little surprised, because Lu Xiaoan only had the sixth level of Qi cultivation, and there was no one sitting there who cultivated lower than him, and even his own junior sister cultivated higher than him. This made Yan Guyun very curious, and he didn't understand why everyone looked up to Lu Xiaoan.

Seeing that Gongsun Yi directly challenged Lu Xiaoan, Yu Donglai was also a little annoyed by being underestimated, so he also stood up and said: "Gongsun Yi, you are not qualified to challenge my eldest brother, you have beaten me." ”

"You?"

Gongsun Yi sneered and said, "You are just a defeated subordinate of mine." ”

Yu Donglai said: "Aren't you also my eldest brother's defeated general?"

"You!"

Gongsun Yi was annoyed and ashamed, but this was a fact, and he couldn't refute it, so he could only say: "Okay, I'll let you clearly understand how big the gap between us is!"

With that, Gongsun Yi walked to the open space outside the courtyard building, and Yu Donglai also followed. The two had an enmity, so they saved their politeness, took out their magic weapons and fought.

Gongsun Yi first entered the Tongmai realm, and casting spells was not very smooth, so he was still used to melee combat. But after a few rounds of fighting, Gongsun Yi was surprised, because he found that his body blessed with mana did not have the absolute upper hand.

"You...... How is that possible!"

Gongsun Yi couldn't understand how Yu Donglai could have become so strong in just one year, he could easily defeat Yu Donglai before.

It stands to reason that after breaking through to the Tongmai Realm, his advantage will only be greater, because spiritual power to mana is a qualitative change. Without mana, you can't be called a monk, you can only be called a qi practitioner.

Yu Donglai let out a bad breath, couldn't help laughing, and said, "I really thought you were very powerful before, but now you are a piece of!"

"You dare to scold me?"

Gongsun Yi was so angry that no one dared to scold him when he grew so big, let alone scold him for.

Yu Donglai was also too excited, and even Gu Linghua couldn't help but hold his forehead.

How can I say it, as a child of a big family, I will feel ashamed to say such things, because this is a sign of unculture. But fortunately, everyone knew that Yu Donglai was a stupid melon, so they didn't think it was strange, only Yan Guyun was stunned for a moment.

Under the anger, Gongsun Yi's offensive became more and more fierce, and Yu Donglai soon couldn't bear it. His Heavenly Demon Forging Body is far inferior to Lu Xiao'an, and it is estimated that it is okay to deal with the weaker Tongmai Realm, and it is indeed too much to deal with Tianjiao like Gongsun Yi.

Soon, Gongsun Yi seized the opportunity to kick Yudonglai to the ground. Then he followed closely and stabbed his sword into Yu Donglai's neck.

Everyone was shocked and found that Gongsun Yi did not spare his hand in anger and wanted to kill Yu Donglai. But at this time, everyone else was in the courtyard building, and it was too late to stop it, so they could only watch Gongsun Yi's sword stab down.
