Yunze did not lower his voice when saying this.

Whether it was Ji Lanshan in the palace, Gong Xiao who had just entered the palace, the Qi Refining Stage monks around, and the ministers all heard it!

When Gong Xiao heard this, his brows instantly furrowed.

But he just sneered, and then continued walking toward the center of the hall with the three people behind him.

dog?

If he gets angry now, he will really look like a dog.

In something like this, whoever gets anxious first will naturally lose.

This is also a good thing, at least judging from this guy's attitude, the rumors he heard are indeed correct.

He provoked another branch of the Gong family, and even attracted people from his direct lineage!

Gong Xiao walked to the middle of the hall, politely raised his hands towards Ji Lanshan on the hall and said, "Your Majesty, I'm here for the appointment to discuss Taoism."

"Um."

Ji Lanshan had already stood in line, and naturally he would not give Gong Xiao a good look. He just nodded calmly: "Fellow Taoist Gong, please find a place to sit. The discussion will begin soon after the banquet."

Gong Xiao just nodded, and then came to sit across from Yunze and others.

He just wants to put psychological pressure on the other party!

"Now that the host and guest have arrived, this banquet of discussing Taoism has officially begun!"

Ji Lanshan raised the jade cup on the table, stood up and invited everyone to drink: "Come, everyone drink this cup with me!"

In the main hall, everyone who was seated picked up a jade cup with lacquer and drank the wine from the cup together.

After finishing the cup, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music quietly stopped.

A group of palace ladies came from nowhere and began to serve the dishes. In just a few seconds, the table was filled with a dazzling array of dishes.

There is also a maid at the table who is responsible for adding wine to each table.

Yunze turned his head and glanced at the empty door.

Well, Brother Yu may not have woken up yet at this time.

But as long as the golden elixir from the Gong family is not available, it doesn't matter whether Brother Yu comes or not.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

When Ji Lanshan raised the third glass of wine, he smiled at everyone and said: "This banquet is called discussing Tao, so naturally it should focus on discussing Tao!

If everyone has finished eating, then this banquet of discussion will officially begin."

No one replied, so they agreed with Ji Lanshan's proposal.

"good!"

Ji Lanshan smiled and raised the jade cup high: "Come on, you and I will drink this cup, and the discussion will officially begin!"

Yunze also picked up the jade cup and took a sip of turbid wine.

In order to better cover himself, after he finished drinking, he forced out a mouthful of blood!

"puff!"

The wine was mixed with bright red and sprinkled directly on the main hall!

"Master!"

Ji Xiu was the first to react.

He rushed directly to Yunze's side and shook gently: "Master, are you okay, Master!"

"gentlemen!"

"Brother Tu!"

"Fellow Taoist Tu? You..."

"Cough, cough, cough."

Yunze covered his mouth and coughed twice, then stood up with Ji Xiu's help: "I'm fine."

"Friend Taoist Tu."

Ji Shan also came from the side at this moment. He stood aside with worry on his face: "If it doesn't work, why not let me do the discussion this time?"

"Hey, do you, Daoist Fellow Ji, take your words seriously?"

Gong Xiao laughed at the side and said: "I don't mind if someone is replaced on the spot, but in what capacity do you participate in the discussion?

Is it the royal family of the Chengtian Dynasty, or the steward of the Immortal Mansion? We need to make this matter clear."

Ji Shan frowned and stopped talking.

These two identities are probably not suitable for participating in Taoism.

Although the discussion of Tao originated from Chengtian, the Chengtian Dynasty itself could not be involved in it, otherwise the nature of the matter would be completely different.

Not to mention his identity as a steward of the Immortal Mansion, it is even less possible for him to participate in this discussion.

"Since I have promised to discuss Taoism, it is natural for me to fight."

Yunze took a step forward, broke away from Ji Xiu's support, came to Ji Shan's side and looked at Gong Xiao: "Fellow Taoist Gong, if you are ready, how about you show me the lottery you have prepared first?"

"Well, that's fine."

Gong Xiao stroked his beard and smiled, then took out a second-level spiritual pen: "I just want to say that if fellow Taoist Tu does not participate in the discussion this time, he will definitely regret it.

After all, the prizes prepared today are all tailor-made for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other three people also took out the second-level spiritual weapons they had prepared.

They are an inkstone, an inkstone, and a jade leaf.

Yunze couldn't help but frown when he saw this.

Paper, ink and pen?

They are all second-order spiritual weapon-level pens, inks, paper and inkstones!

Needless to say, the price of a second-level spiritual pen is at least two to three times that of an ordinary second-level spiritual weapon. The production of an inkstone is even more cumbersome, and the price is even higher than that of a spiritual pen.

Ink stone is slightly inferior. As long as you find the right material and inscribe some formations, you can make it into a weapon.

The value of the jade page is equivalent to that of an ordinary second-level spiritual weapon.

The reason why Gong Xiao was so prepared was to ensure that he was the one who took action.

There must be a reason for him to do this!

"how?"

Gong Xiao asked with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Tu, where is the lottery you prepared?"

Yunze didn't say much, he just took out three second-level spiritual weapons from the Sumeru Ring, two swords and one sword.

Ji Shan also took the opportunity to take out the spear he carried.

They are also four second-level spiritual weapons. In terms of value, they are naturally far inferior to those produced by Gong Xiao and the other four.

"good!"

Gong Xiao didn't say much, he just looked at Yunze and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Tu has indeed kept his promise, but... please wait a moment."

"Huh?" Yunze snorted softly.

"Fellow Taoist Tu, please don't misunderstand me."

Gong Xiao picked up the jade cup in front of him and took a sip: "Since it is a discussion of Tao, if only you and I, who are in the Foundation Establishment realm, are present, it will naturally be difficult to judge the outcome.

If you accidentally miss it, accidents can easily occur.

In order to ensure safety, I specially found a senior who is in the Condensation Realm to watch the ceremony. If there is any accident, he can take action immediately to keep you and me safe.

Depending on the time, this senior should be arriving soon, and fellow Taoist Tu can also take advantage of this time to rest more."

Condensing elixir?

A bad premonition suddenly arose in Yunze's heart.

At this moment, the originally closed palace door suddenly opened!

Almost at the same time, everyone turned to look at the next door and saw a figure walking slowly towards the main hall.

"Hey, it's a good time for me to come, right?"

This voice is...Gong Li!

Yunze frowned slightly, and could only see the figure getting closer and closer.

"Ahem."

Upon seeing this, Ji Lanshan hurriedly stood up from the throne, cupped his hands towards Gong Li and said, "May I ask how you call this senior?"

"Where did the wild dogs bark?"
