Gu Bingying was also surprised and said: "Mr. Ye, do you also know Lu Kai, a celebrity from the Piaomiao Sect?"
"Uh...I..."
Ye Chen was a little embarrassed.
He did know Qingwutang Lu Kai, and they had met him several times.
However, in his eyes, Lu Kai was just a minor character.
Unexpectedly, from what Gu Zhengze said, he would be touted as a big shot.
Moreover, looking at Gu Zhengze's appearance, he also regarded it as a matter of great pride to know Lu Kai.
"Haha, brother Ye, don't feel embarrassed, I won't look down on you because of this!"
Seeing Ye Chen's face full of embarrassment, Gu Zhengze waved his hand and said "I understand".
"After all, Lu Kai is also a high-ranking figure among the outer sect of Piaomiao Sect. Many people have heard of his name, but very few are lucky enough to get to know him!"
"It was only by chance that I met him and exchanged names!"
Mentioning his experience of getting acquainted with Lu Kai, Gu Zhengze's face was full of melancholy, as if he was recalling an unforgettable past.
"Brother, is this Lu Kai you are talking about from Qingwu Hall, the outer sect of Piaomiao Sect?"
Gu Bingying seemed to have thought of something and stared at Gu Zhengze with burning eyes.
"Yes, he is a disciple of Qingwu Hall, the outer sect of Piaomiao Sect!"
Gu Zhengze nodded, "Why do you ask?"
"Then this Lu Kai, is he in the same branch as Ximen Xiao, the first person in the outer sect of Piaomiao Sect?" Gu Bingying's face was full of urgency.
"That's right!" Gu Zhengze nodded, "Ximen Xiao and Lu Kai are both disciples of Qingwu Hall. They are brothers and sisters, and it is said that they have a very good relationship!"
Seeing the enthusiasm on his sister's face, Gu Zhengze continued to add fuel to the fire, "Don't worry, Xiaoying, this time outstanding disciples from all major forces gathered in Yining City. Leaders from the outer sect of Piaomiao Sect such as Lu Kai and Ximen Xiao,
I will definitely not be absent. If I have a chance to find Lu Kai, I will definitely introduce him to you!"
After a pause, he smiled mysteriously, "Maybe through Lu Kai, you can have the opportunity to meet the admirer you dream of, Ximen Xiao!"
The brother and sister Gu Zhengze spoke with great passion, but Ye Chen, who was walking silently next to him, had goosebumps all over the floor.
He really couldn't understand. Lu Kai and Ximen couldn't laugh at just two outer disciples of the Piaomiao Sect. How could they let these two brothers and sisters pursue them like crazy?
…
Soon, night falls.
Ye Chen and the other three came to a relatively remote city, Baituo City!
Because it was still far away from Yining City and they couldn't walk at night, they could only rest here and continue their journey tomorrow morning.
But when they were looking for an inn to rest, a conversation caught Gu Zhengze's attention.
"Hurry up, hurry up, it's too late!"
"Yes, it's rare that Mr. Xie Yun deigns to come to our Baituo City. If you can't see him painting live in person, it will definitely be a lifelong regret!"
While they were talking, several people hurriedly passed by them.
"What? Mr. Xie Yun?"
Gu Zhengze's eyes lit up and he grabbed one of them, "Brother, can you tell me what happened?"
"Don't you know yet? Mr. Xie Yun has come to our Baituo City. He will paint and auction live in the center of the city tonight!"
The man who was grabbed shook off Gu Zhengze's hand and said impatiently: "It's about to start, don't waste my time!"
After saying that, the man left quickly.
Gu Zhengze did not continue to ask, but after the man left, he said to Gu Bingying with excitement: "Xiaoying, today, I will take you to meet a heavyweight!"
"Is this Mr. Xie Yun they were talking about just now?"
Gu Bingying also heard the conversation between those people just now, but she seemed to have never heard of this person.
"Xiaoying, you have only heard of famous figures in martial arts, and you may not have heard of celebrities in other professions, but today I can tell you clearly that this Young Master Xie Yun is definitely a real big shot!"
Seeing that Gu Bingying was still confused, Gu Zhengze patiently explained: "Master Xie Yun is a direct disciple of the painter Du Sanniang, and his painting skills are extraordinary and holy!"
"A disciple of the painter Du Sanniang?"
Gu Bingying finally understood, "So, Mr. Xie Yun is considered a painter?"
"good!"
Gu Zhengze nodded, "Master Xie Yun is not only superb in painting skills, he is also a handsome and personable man. The most important thing is..."
After a pause, he smiled mysteriously, "Master Xie Yun, your eldest brother, I have also had the honor to meet you once. I will take you to see what it means to be truly talented and beautiful tonight!"
After saying that, he glanced at Ye Chen again.
That look seemed to be saying, "Look at Mr. Xie Yun. He must have good looks and literary talents. Look at you again. Apart from a pretty face, what else do you have?"
Ye Chen naturally saw Gu Zhengze's eyes, but turned a blind eye.
However, in Gu Zhengze's eyes, this appearance made him appear ignorant and overestimating his abilities.
How dare a casual cultivator with no family or sect dare to despise a famous figure like Xie Yun?
Don’t you even look at how much you weigh?
"Mr. Ye, let's go take a look too!"
Gu Bingying didn't think much, she immediately came over and spoke to Ye Chen earnestly.
"Not interested in!"
Ye Chen waved his hand directly.
What a joke, even the painter Du Sanniang once admired him for his painting skills. He was just a disciple of Du Sanniang, so he really had no interest.
"Huh, not interested yet?"
Gu Zhengze couldn't stand listening anymore and teased: "Brother Ye, don't say the grapes are sour when you can't eat them!"
"Brother, can you stop mocking Mr. Ye all the time? He is also our friend after all!"
Before Ye Chen could answer, Gu Bingying cast an indignant look at Gu Zhengze.
"Okay, I won't say it, but tell your friend to hurry up. If you can't catch up with Mr. Xie Yun to paint on the spot, it will be a regret and loss for everyone!" Gu Zhengze urged impatiently.
Gu Bingying turned around and begged: "Mr. Ye, even if you are not interested in watching Mr. Xie Yun paint live, there are no decent inns nearby, only in the center of the city. Even if we are looking for an inn, we can only go there, right?
?”
"This...is good!"
Ye Chen did not insist anymore, nodded, and followed Gu Bingying and his two brothers towards the center of the city.
Although he was not interested in seeing Mr. Xie Yun painting live, the surrounding area was too remote and there really were no inns.
If you want to stay, you have to go to the city center.
Soon, there was a wide square in the center of the city.
The square brazier was burning with blazing flames, illuminating the surrounding area.
At this moment, the crowd was excited and noisy.
In the center of the square, there was a large open space, and there was only a young man standing with his hands behind his back, with a majestic appearance and an extraordinary bearing.
