Chapter 38 Xiaoerte prepares to dance a song to show congratulations

While Shen Xuan was deep in thought, he unknowingly came to the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion. At this time, there were many people gathered here, and they were all talking happily, and most of them were female voices, which were particularly loud.

The entire Qiushui City is like this today. The streets and alleys are decorated with lights and colorful lights, and people are coming and going. It has a particularly festive atmosphere.

The city lord's breakthrough is also a good thing for the common people. Ordinary people like them can survive in this world where strength is respected only because of the protection of the strong. The stronger the city lord is, the safer they will be.

Shen Tiannu led Shen Xuan and Shen Qianshuang directly into the main hall. It was just like the palace seen on TV. The ceiling was so high, resplendent and majestic.

On the left and right sides of the main hall, there are many futons and small tables, one for each person, and many people are already sitting cross-legged there, showing the demeanor of cultivators.

Those who can enter the main hall are obviously VIPs, and the big families of Qiushui City are among them.

Juan An sat reservedly next to a woman. He was particularly well-behaved on this occasion. He just blinked at Shen Xuan, then sat motionless and dignified, but Shen Xuan noticed that he secretly looked at Shen Qianshuang from time to time, and also Blushing inexplicably and shyly...

The woman next to Juan An is older than Shen Tianfei, and her appearance is somewhat similar to Juan An. She must be Juan An's mother, the current head of the Hu family, Hu Yidao, who is in the middle stage of foundation building!

When she saw Shen Tiannu, she laughed and said: "Sister Shen, your daughter is so handsome, no wonder he was kidnapped. How about marrying into my Hu family? Our Hu family will definitely take good care of him."

Shen Xuan's balls hurt when he heard this. He always felt that he would be at risk of getting married at any time.

If someone else mentioned Shen Xuan's kidnapping, Shen Tiannu would definitely be furious, but she was helpless to this person who was always outspoken. She just took Shen Xuan to sit next to her and said disgustedly: "Wait for you then. Let’s wait and see when my daughter will take her own image into consideration.”

Many people felt funny when these words came out. Everyone knows what the daughter of the Hu family is like. She only thinks about cultivation. Every time she appears, she is in a hurry, with disheveled hair, just like a savage.

It would have been nice for the Hu family to have an eldest daughter, but unfortunately she died long ago.

Shen Xuan saw Liu Baihe and Liu Qingyun sitting opposite him. Today, these two people were also dressed up, especially Liu Qingyun, who turned a blind eye to him. The conspicuous green dress had huge lace on the collar, which was quite coquettish. And Liu Baihe Wearing beautiful black clothes, she smiled and nodded at him.

At this time, Shen Xuan immediately felt a chill, and he subconsciously looked at Shen Qianshuang beside him. Sure enough, she looked at Lily Liu with a cold face at this moment, as if she were looking at a dead thing.

Shen Xuan was not the only one to feel this chill. The originally noisy hall fell silent, and everyone looked at Shen Qianshuang in shock.

Liu Baihe didn't know that Shen Qianshuang was warning her. She didn't change her expression and smiled at Shen Qianshuang. Then she stood up and said hello to Shen Tiannu with cupped fists.

"Your old guy hasn't come out of seclusion yet?" Shen Tiannu stopped talking to Hu Yidao and asked Liu Baihe, while holding down Shen Qianshuang's shoulders.

"Liu Xiaonv, you should advise Old Ghost Liu to get out of seclusion as soon as possible. If you don't have enough talent, don't force a breakthrough." Hu Yidao said in a sinister manner, with a hint of ridicule in his words, making the atmosphere in the hall instantly serious.

It was no secret that she and the head of the Liu family had always been at odds with each other. The Liu family once spied on the Hu family's interests in the Huoyun Stone Mine, and the two of them frequently fought against each other.

"My mother is still in retreat. Thank you Aunt Hu for her concern, and my nephew will definitely convey it to you."

Lily Liu hugged her hands and thanked her. She didn't seem angry at all, and was still so humble and polite. Hu Yidao snorted coldly. Whether it was her rival who was about to break through the late foundation building stage, or her outstanding daughter, she was very unhappy.

It is obvious that there is an order of elders and younger ones here. Like other young people, Shen Xuan remained silent and listened to the elders. During the conversation, he learned a lot of information. For example, those who came to participate today are all people from Qiushui City. The city lord also took the opportunity to thank everyone for their cooperation in maintaining the stability of Qiushui City.

While Shen Xuan was listening carefully, Shen Qianshuang, who was sitting next to him, suddenly picked up his plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and placed it in front of Shen Xuan's table without saying a word.

Shen Xuan looked over in surprise, but Shen Qianshuang didn't even speak, let alone speak. She didn't even show any reaction even when Shen Xuan thanked her.

Shen Xuan's brain was racing. Didn't Shen Qianshuang doubt him? Why would she share the delicious food with him? Or was this just a test? Or maybe it was just that he was overthinking, and Shen Qianshuang just thought he had a bad memory?

At this time, Shen Xuan was also desperately searching for memories related to the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his mind, but unfortunately he couldn't remember anything. He finally decided to run away no matter what. On the other side, Shen Tiannu and Hu Yidao finished talking about his abduction. After the incident, the topic of his marriage naturally came up. The two chatted happily. Hu Yidao said that her daughter was not as unbearable as the rumors said, and she took a good bath once a month.

Then Shen Tianfei promised that as long as Juan An's sister can pay attention to her image, it is not impossible to consider it, and they can communicate with each other if they have time.

Shen Xuan couldn't stand listening any more, so he simply wandered around and practiced the Fengshen Kick in his mind. He had been studying this martial art for the past two days. The martial arts training method was in his hands, and he might be able to practice it himself.

After everyone arrived, the city leader Ye Qing finally appeared. She looked like Ye Yunxin, but she looked very strong and powerful, and she walked like a meteor, which made Shen Xuan feel embarrassed inexplicably.

Next to her was a very beautiful woman with extraordinary aura, while Ye Yunxin was following behind them. The two of them walked together, making the originally pretty Ye Yunxin look as ordinary as a green leaf.

"I'm sorry everyone, I came down late."

Ye Qing apologized to everyone with clasped fists, and then asked Gong Ruyue to sit next to the main seat. After Gong Ruyue sat down, she sat down nervously on the main seat.

If Gong Ruyue hadn't wanted to keep a low profile, Ye Qing would have wanted her to sit in the main seat.

Anyone who is not a fool can see how extraordinary Gong Ruyue is. She is sitting next to the city lord, with two incomprehensible guards standing behind her.

Before everyone could post out of curiosity, Ye Qing took the initiative to introduce: "This is Miss Yue who is kind to me."

Ye Qing didn't introduce much and just kept silent.

"It turned out to be Sister Ye's benefactor. Nice to meet you."

Shen Tiannu's eyes lit up, and she was the first to express her goodwill to Gong Ruyue. She knew from Gong Ruyue's noble temperament that this man was either rich or noble, a phoenix among men, and his origins must be extraordinary. He could definitely be included as a candidate for Shen Xuan's marriage. Top three people!

Shen Xuan, who was sighing at the handsome men and beauties in the world of cultivating immortals, felt an inexplicable chill in his heart. Looking at Shen Tiannu with bright eyes, he didn't know why he felt as if he could guess what this mother was thinking.

"Senior must be the head of the Shen family who has single-handedly killed several monsters. You're polite."

Gong Ruyue did not maintain her identity, with a gentle smile on her face, she stood up and bowed to Shen Tiannu.

Then she bowed to Shen Qianshuang and Shen Xuan one by one. Her gentle and elegant attitude made Shen Tiannu even more satisfied. She was ready to ask Ye Qing privately about her origins.

Others also expressed their goodwill to Gong Ruyue one after another. Those who are capable and kind to the city lord should certainly make friends if they have the opportunity.

Looking at Gong Ruyue, who seemed to have hit it off with everyone, a drop of sweat slipped down Ye Qing's cheek from unknown moment.

She never expected that the emperor would come to her breakthrough banquet in person and even send him a valuable treasure. Now she couldn't care less about her own affairs. She was only thinking about how to make the emperor feel that her trip was worthwhile.

The compliments and congratulations made her feel bored. Originally, she wanted to explain her breakthrough experience, but thinking that there were so many strong people around the emperor, they must have looked down upon her experience.

Just when she was worried about what Gong Ruyue would be interested in, Shen Tianfei took the initiative and said: "Sister Ye's breakthrough is really a blessing for Qiushui City, and I'm going to perform a dance to express my congratulations."

I'm not! I didn't! You're talking nonsense!

Shen Xuan's face turned green when he revealed to Shen Tianwei that he had accidentally sprained his foot while jumping out of the carriage and had been feeling a little unwell recently. Unexpectedly, Shen Tianwei stood up and sold him out without saying a word!
