Shiyun Tower is the highest-end restaurant in Liancheng. Every consumption is measured by a thousand taels of silver. It is the largest gold sales den besides Yingou Gambling House, Yishun Auction House, and Hongyu Pavilion.
This is not a place where ordinary people can get in if they have money, they must have corresponding status and status.
The Shiyun Building is divided into four floors. The ground floor accommodates ordinary wealthy businessmen, the second floor houses officials from the imperial court, and the third floor houses the children of wealthy martial arts families. On the fourth floor, there are only four wealthy families: Murong, Lin, Sun, and Wu.
Only the most powerful people have boxes reserved just for them!
In a private room on the fourth floor, four young people were sitting at a square table, drinking wine and talking.
"Brother Lin, I heard that you were imprisoned in the Ice Dragon Cave two days ago, and you came out so soon?" A young man facing east said with a sarcastic smile.
The "Brother Lin" he refers to is Lin Tianyu, the most outstanding member of the younger generation of the Lin family. These four people are the Liancheng Four, the most outstanding members of the younger generation of the four major families, Lin Tianyu, Wu Zifei, Sun Dongyang and
Murong Bai.
The four major families are both competitors and allies. The four leading figures of the younger generation have a very irreconcilable relationship. If nothing unexpected happens, they will all become family elders in the future. It is necessary to maintain friendly relations.
It was Sun Dongyang who made fun of Lin Tianyu.
Lin Tianyu was laughing happily, but when he heard Sun Dongyang's words, his face turned dark. He snorted and said: "A hateful branch disciple, the Seventh Elder actually punished me to stay in the Ice Dragon Cave for a month because of him!
If it weren’t for Slim Girl’s birthday tonight, I would still have to stay in that damn ice cave!”
"Oh, you have a new disciple in Tenglong Academy?" Murong Bai said slowly, although his voice was not loud, but there was a royal domineering air coming out, making people willing to be driven by him.
Lin, Sun, and Wu are all at the peak of the Xiantian Ninth Level, but he has gone a step further and reached the Xiantian Perfection Realm. He may take the last step to enter the Qingxuan Realm at any time. He is truly one of the younger generations in Liancheng.
The number one master.
Lin Tianyu nodded, a look of hatred flashed in his eyes.
Although he was a member of the same clan, he did not intend to kill Lin Luo, but because of Lin Luo's appearance, the local faction suffered a setback in the battle with the outsider faction for the first time, and he was punished to the Ice Dragon Cave again.
Maybe he has a crush on Lin Luo!
"Haha, Brother Lin, if it's not convenient for you to take action, I can teach that guy a lesson for you! By the way, what's his name?" Sun Dongyang said with a smile, not taking Lin Luo to heart at all.
They all stand at the pinnacle of the innate Mahayana realm and are indeed qualified to look down on the younger generation of their generation.
"Lin Luo!" Lin Tianyu gritted his teeth and said.
…
June is the hottest time of summer. Even at night, the heat is still there and the heat wave is overwhelming.
However, for Xiantian realm warriors, they only need to use their innate power to drive the heat wave out of the body. Invulnerability to cold and heat is the most basic ability of Xiantian realm warriors. For fire cultivator warriors, such a hot day
It is more conducive to their practice. The fire spiritual power in the air is particularly strong, far more than in other seasons.
On the evening of the 19th, Lin Luo and ten other clan members from Tenglong Yuan boarded the carriage and entered the palace together.
Although there are eleven people sitting in a carriage, it will not seem crowded even if so many people come in. This shows that the carriage is gorgeous and spacious! However, there are many contradictions between the locals and the foreigners, and the two sides are clearly divided.
In the middle is Lin Yaoxiang, who is as cold as ice, separating the Chu River and the Han border.
The people on both sides did not speak to each other, but they were very courteous to Lin Yaoxiang. However, Lin Yaoxiang was always as cold as ice and only nodded occasionally, but even such an action would make the speaker overjoyed.
The journey was shaky, because the Lin family was on the outskirts of Liancheng. It took more than half an hour before they finally arrived at the palace and got off the carriage one by one.
Brilliant and majestic!
Lin Luo couldn't help but sigh. It was indeed a symbol of the pinnacle of power in the world. The majestic and magnificent landscape would definitely make ordinary people feel in awe, hold their breath involuntarily, and feel uncomfortable all over.
This is a form of pressure.
Although the royal family is the master of the Datong Kingdom in a broad sense, the three major families of Lin, Sun, and Wu are not weak at all in terms of strength. Moreover, it is only the birthday of a little daughter of the Murong family. No matter how much Murong Qi dotes on her, the three major families are not weak at all.
The family doesn't take it too seriously.
Therefore, the Lin family only dispatched Lin Kongwu, a high-ranking figure, to lead Lin Luo and other juniors to attend the banquet. This is normal. If Lin Duolu or even Lin Mosen came in person, the Murong family would be prepared to prepare, thinking that the Lin family wanted to seek dynasty.
He has usurped the throne!
The banquet was held at Murong Xiuxiu's Qinghua Palace. Lin Luo and the others were the second ones to arrive. The Sun family had already arrived earlier, and there were also about a dozen young and handsome men, all of whom were at the Xiantian realm or above.
However, the Qingxuan realm seems to be an insurmountable threshold. No hero from the four major families can break through this realm before the age of thirty.
Although the Lin family is divided into local faction and outsider faction, they immediately put down their confrontation when they met outsiders. Both families looked at each other with provocative eyes, and they almost started fighting without pulling out their fists.
Lin Tianyu and Sun Dongyang just looked at each other and smiled, and then looked away. Although they had a close personal relationship, they had to take a clear stance when it came to family interests.
Not long after, a dozen or so people from the Wu family also arrived late. The young people from the three major families looked at each other with unkind expressions.
Of course, there are not only four major families in Liancheng, but these four major families are the strongest. Soon, young children from many families arrived, and the Qinghua Palace became more and more lively.
Although the four major families are said to be on equal footing, Murong's ability to control the divine weapon of the country is indeed slightly better. Naturally, they have to show off their pomp and show until almost all the guests have arrived. At this time, Murong Xianxian was surrounded by an old man in his sixties and a bunch of palace maids.
The companion appeared in the main hall.
The old man in his 60s is Murong Qi, the current emperor of Datong Kingdom. Obviously, he dotes on his daughter so much that he would accompany him out in person. You must know that this master is a super strong man in the Nirvana realm. There is no need to appear here with Lin.
Luo and these "little guys" are not qualified to have a banquet together!
"I have met Your Majesty! I have met Your Highness Princess Xianxian!"
Everyone stood up and saluted at the same time. No matter how the four major families fought openly and secretly, everyone still had to be kings and ministers.
"Get on an equal footing!" Murong Qi waved his hand and motioned for everyone to stand up. No one present was qualified to sit on an equal footing with him, so he didn't say anything more. He just pushed his beloved daughter out and sat aside.
At first, because there was a strong man from the Nirvana realm, everyone seemed very restrained, but they are young people after all, especially today when the four beauties from Liancheng appeared at the same time. The so-called fair ladies, gentlemen are so jealous, not to mention these talents, looks.
The atmosphere quickly became lively for Ming Shu, who had both talents. The four beauties immediately became the focus of the scene, especially today's hostess Murong Xianxian. She was the youngest among the four beauties, and she also had a bit of cute childishness.
, attracted the attention of many people.
Not long after, the meaty part finally arrived, and everyone took out their congratulatory gifts.
People compete for a breath of air, and Buddhas compete for a stick of incense. Everyone puts a lot of thought into the gifts, hoping to make what they give them superior to others. This not only brings glory to their faces, but also the face of their own families.
Immediately, the crowd consciously started to come forward in order, starting from the lowest status, and presented the gifts one by one. At first, they were just some calligraphy and painting jewelry, but as they progressed, the gifts became more precious, similar to the family strength of the giver.
"Dongyang presented two strains of Ziyuan Ganoderma. I wish Princess Xianxian will make great progress in her cultivation and break through the Qingxuan Realm as soon as possible!" Finally it was the turn of the Lin, Sun, and Wu families, and Sun Dongyang was the first to grab it.
"Purple Yuan Ganoderma is a good thing. It is said that one plant can save a warrior three months of hard training!"
"Sun Dongyang gave away two plants at once. Among the gifts this time, his gift must be the most precious!"
"Yes, this time the Sun family will take the lead!"
Everyone was talking about it, but those in the Sun family were all very proud. Although Ziyuan Yuzhi was not sent away by them, Sun Dongyang represented the Sun family.
Some children of the Sun family also said: "Brother Dongyang should actually be the last one to take action. In this case, who else would have the nerve to show off his shame again?"
"Haha, I don't know what the Lin and Wu families will give me. I hope it won't be too embarrassing!"
The Wu and Lin families had ugly expressions. This was just Murong Xianxian's birthday party, not His Majesty's centenary birthday. Although they did prepare some gifts that would be considered rare in the eyes of ordinary people, which one
There is no way to compare with Ziyuan Yuzhi!
The Sun family was really willing to give up and actually took out two such precious Purple Yuan Jade Zhizhi plants! However, by taking out such precious items just for a little bit of face, don’t the Sun family feel that they are trying to make a fool of themselves?
"Lin Luo, I would like to give Princess Xianxian two pills that I refined by myself. I wish Her Royal Highness the princess to stay young and be as beautiful as an immortal!" At this embarrassing moment, Lin Luo suddenly stood up and took out two pills from his arms.
The jade bottle walked towards Murong Xianxian.
Lin Tianya and others knew that Lin Luo had just started learning alchemy, so what kind of elixir could he make in just a month? He actually gave it as a gift in front of all the young people from the Liancheng family. Could it be that he was talking about the Lin family?
Are you so stuck that you can’t even bring out a decent gift?
This...is so embarrassing!
They all lowered their heads, too embarrassed to watch the next scene.
"Oh, brother Lin Luo can also make elixirs?" Although Murong Xianxian looked very childish, she did not open the jade bottle after taking it, as if to save some face for Lin Luo, showing that she is actually quite wealthy.
, Murong Qi who was watching beside him nodded secretly.
"I wonder what kind of elixir Brother Lin Luo gave to Her Royal Highness the Princess?" The Sun family members were not willing to let go of the opportunity to continue building momentum and immediately jumped out to sing the opposite tune.
Lin Luo was really worried that no one would help him and he would miss the great opportunity to promote Xiuyan Pill and Zhuyan Pill. He really wanted to express his gratitude to this guy who jumped out.
But on the surface, Lin Luo just smiled lightly and said: "It's just the Zhuyan Pill that can keep your appearance and the Xiuyan Pill that makes people look radiant!"
As soon as this statement came out, the banquet fell silent, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, how can there be such a magical elixir in the world?"
"This kid is crazy for wanting to be in the limelight. He can even say such nonsense!"
"You made it yourself, do you dare to eat it?"
"I don't think I have a long life!"
The people of the Sun family were also happy and said: "It turns out that Brother Lin Luo can also make elixirs. Hey, senior Zou Tao, the master of alchemy, is also here. Why don't you let him evaluate the 'spiritual elixir' you made!"
Hearing his words, there was laughter again, and except for Lin Yaoxiang who seemed to not care about anything, everyone else in the Lin family wanted to strangle Lin Luo to death!
Lin Luo was also laughing in his heart. The happier these people are laughing now, the better their faces will look later! He shrugged nonchalantly and said, "Then please give me some advice, Senior Zou!"
This guy is serious!
Everyone was even more happy, thinking that Lin Luo was just a fool, just waiting to see a bigger joke.
"Hmph, I wouldn't do such a disgraceful thing!" A sixty-year-old man snorted heavily. Although he was only in the Xiantian realm, looking at the place where he sat, he was second only to Lin and Sun.
, the three major Wu families obviously have quite a status in Datong Country.
He is Zou Tao, the alchemy master of Datong Kingdom. Because the conditions for becoming an alchemist are relatively strict, every alchemist is a guest of each major family, and Zou Tao is the only third-level alchemy master of Datong Kingdom, so although
He only has the cultivation level of the Xiantian realm, but he has a transcendent status. Even the heads of the four major families have to be polite when they see him.
Murong Xianxian did not want to embarrass Lin Luo too much. After all, Lin Luo was a guest. Even if she was not pleased with the gift, the Lin family's face still had to be sold! She walked lightly towards Zou Tao and took Lin Luo away.
He handed over the elixir bottle and gave Zou Tao a look of help, while saying: "Master, please give me your evaluation. Although Brother Lin Luo is young, he might be very talented in the alchemy path.
Here’s a portion!”
"Hey, Princess Xianxian actually became a disciple of Master Zou Tao?"
"Is Princess Xianxian still a warrior of both fire and wood?"
"If that's the case, then Princess Xianxian's talent is really terrifying. At only seventeen years old, she can master both fire and wood techniques to the innate realm!"
"Hehe, don't forget that there is this Brother Lin Luo, he is also an 'alchemist'!"
Below, there was laughter again.
