The birthday banquet was held in a hall thousands of square meters wide. The hall was also decorated with lights, red lanterns everywhere, and filled with dozens of banquet tables.
"Brother Jiang, another hundred years have passed. Time flies so fast. I still remember vividly the days when we were young and traveled across the mainland together."
In the first-class seat, a middle-aged man with white hair, thin body, and energetic eyes sighed.
Li Yuechou, the head of the Li family among the five major families.
"Yes, hundreds of years have passed by in a blink of an eye. For monks like us, this lifetime of mortals is too short for us."
Jiang Langtao also lamented that the lifespan of a strong person in the eternal realm would only be a thousand years at most.
"I think the young people who were so high-spirited back then have become old guys now."
Next to him, another fat middle-aged man in yellow said with a smile.
Tan Chen, the head of the Tan family.
"Why do we think so much? Now we are considered to be at the pinnacle that many monks dream of. To be able to further become an immortal and pursue the immortal way is a chance. If not, it is fate. We can just enjoy life peacefully for the rest of our lives. This person cannot live like this.
If you work too hard, your life span will be affected."
In the seat on the left, a powerful and burly man in black raised his glass and continued: "Today is Brother Jiang's birthday. It's rare for a few of us to get together. Don't lament the past. This man should be more optimistic.
The big guys present at Nancang Strait stood up and toasted.
"Jiang family master has this day every year!"
Hundreds of guests in the audience also stood up and toasted together.
"Thank you guys, do it!"
Jiang Langtao's eyes flashed, and he drank with everyone.
"By the way, why hasn't the head of the Nangong family come yet? Have you invited Brother Jiang?"
Li Yuechou's head suddenly asked.
Jiang Langtao smiled and said: "Our five major families in Nancang Strait are naturally indispensable. We have invited them all. Maybe Brother Nangong is busy."
"This guy, we usually rarely get together, but today is Brother Jiang's birthday and he's still dragging his feet." Liu Wu snorted coldly, seeming to be quite dissatisfied with the head of the Nangong family.
"Nangong family, the head of the Nangong family has arrived. The head of the Nangong family wishes Mr. Jiang that he will be as blessed as the flowing water of the East China Sea, and that he will live as long as the immortal pines of Nanshan Mountain! He will give you a pair of the best jade and wishful thinking."
At this time, a shout came from outside.
"The head of the Nangong family is here."
Many people stood up and looked around.
I saw a group of people coming outside, with five powerful men from the eternal realm in front, followed by more than a dozen heavenly kings.
At the center of this group of people is a young man wearing a blue sea robe.
This young man looks like he is only in his thirties, but is actually three hundred or four hundred years old.
Nangong Hai, the current head of the Nangong family, is actually a generation younger than Jiang Langtao and others. However, his cultivation has reached the fifth level of the ages. He holds the position of head of the Nangong family. At a young age, he is the most likely person in the Nancang Strait mainland to climb the path of immortality.
people.
"Master Nangong, I look forward to the stars and the moon, and I hope you are here."
The head of the Li family laughed and stood up, clasping his fists.
"Huh, you don't understand the rules, junior." Liu Wu snorted lightly.
Nangong Hai came over, clasped his fists and smiled: "I'm sorry, seniors, I'm too late to deal with some matters temporarily. Senior Jiang, I wish you blessings like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and may you live as long as the immortal pines of Nanshan Mountain."
Jiang Langtao laughed, stood up and said, "Ah Hai, you're so polite, come on, come on, sit down quickly, everyone was expecting you to come just now."
Nangong Hai smiled faintly, waved his hand, and the people behind him presented two brocade boxes. In the brocade boxes were two top-quality spiritual jade Ruyi.
"A little care is not disrespectful."
"Ah Hai, you're too polite." Jiang Langtao asked people to take his seat, and Nangong Hai also sat down.
Five major families gathered in one hall.
In the corner, there is a seat with four people, a handsome young man with long silver-white hair, a beautiful girl with a golden feather on the left, a cute girl wearing a purple and gold dress on the right, and a Taoist priest.
Big fat man.
"Everyone is here."
Xiang Chen tore into strips and slowly ate the delicacies at the banquet.
Zhuge Yuan was even more ugly when it came to eating, showing no Taoist style. He was just robbing the food of the best delicacies on the table.
"Eat slowly, just like I usually treat you."
Xiang Chen hit Zhuge Yuan's hand with his chopsticks.
"If you don't treat me badly, I'll be hungry for nine meals in three days."
Zhuge Yuan muttered in response.
"You deserve to be fat because of your eating habits." Xiang Yang Kuixi also scolded Zhuge Yuan angrily.
"Brother Zhuge is like a pig." Yaoyao also added.
"I wonder what Nephew Nangong is busy with recently? The Nangong family is getting better and better now. I heard that business has even gone to Kyushu. Nephew Nangong is so young and has a bright future."
Jiang Langtao smiled and asked Nangong Hai, who came last.
Nangong Hai came late, punished himself with three cups and said with a smile: "They are all small businesses that do not make money, but I am really busy with something of great importance recently."
"Oh? Can you use it as a conversation piece to open our eyes?"
Li Mengping asked.
Nangong Hai looked at Jiang Langtao with deep eyes and said, "I heard that the recent batch of goods supplied to the Tyrant Sect was robbed. Some seniors must have heard about it."
Liu Wudao: "What's new in this matter? Of course we know that the people in Ba Tian Mansion were robbed by the Hai Clan. I thought what Nephew Nangong wanted to say."
Nangong Hai still smiled and said: "However, according to my investigation, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. The Hai clan is just the one who takes the blame. The real person who robbed is actually someone else."
"It wasn't the Sea Clan who did it!"
As soon as this statement came out, several other family heads were surprised and looked at each other.
Jiang Langtao also looked surprised, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"If it's not the Sea Clan, who could it be?" Liu Wu frowned and said, "Could it be that you already know?"
Nangong Hai picked up a piece of tuna king meat, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully: "There are ancient strong men among the escorts. They can quickly and cleanly get rid of such an escort team. Apart from a few of our big families in the Nancang Strait mainland,
, who else has this strength?”
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of several people present changed, and they became quiet instantly.
Liu Wu said in a deep voice: "You said it was one of our five major families who did it? What evidence is there?"
"Nephew Nangong, please don't say this nonsense. This matter concerns the Tyrant Sect, and none of us can afford to offend him." The head of the Tan family, Tan Chen, said in a low voice.
Nangong Hai's smile did not diminish and he said: "We are all members of our five major families here. It is better for everyone to know about some things, so as not to monopolize the benefits and have all of us bear the responsibility for him."
The danger of suspicion and misunderstanding.”
After saying that, he looked directly at Jiang Langtao!
