"Lu Peng." Demonic Ape recognized the young man at a glance, with a look of surprise on his face, "Aren't you in Tianman Pavilion? Why are you here? It's very dangerous here."
Lu Peng pretended to be angry when he heard this and said, "Are you looking down on me? Let me tell you, I am not what I used to be."
Just as he was speaking, light flashed in Lu Peng's hand, and array flags appeared in the sky. The moment these array flags appeared, they rose into the sky, then scattered, spreading all over the sky to form an array. Then, a vast wave of The power began to surge.
This vast power was like the power of heaven, covering all the monks in all directions. This feeling was like facing a thunderstorm. For a moment, the expressions of everyone who were already shocked changed even more tragically.
The previous demon ape was already extremely terrifying. He was injured in the late stage of Danyuan with just a few sticks. The one that came after him seemed to be even more outrageous. Once the formation came out, it was a sign that it was going to wipe out everyone.
"Okay, let the friends from Tianman Pavilion leave." A voice sounded from a distance.
Four late-stage Dan Yuans came from afar, and together with the previous one, they happened to be the overlords of the five directions.
"Yes, let us leave quickly. We have to attend Zi Chen's engagement ceremony." Lu Peng smiled, then put away the formation flag. The vast power dissipated, and all the alchemists breathed a sigh of relief. .
The exit slowly opened, and several Danyuan later generations signaled the two to leave.
"Don't you have to pay for the essence and blood of ancient beasts?" Lu Peng asked doubtfully.
A late Dan Yuan smiled when he heard this and said, "Little brother, I'm just kidding. This passage is free for all of you in Tianman Pavilion."
"Thank you very much, let's go, Demon Ape." While talking, the two of them stepped through the exit and left.
The other Dan Yuans also dispersed, but the shock on their faces remained for a long time. The Shangguan family's Dan Yuan later looked at the injured Dan Yuan of the Wei family next to him and said, "I told you not to test them, but I won't listen." , feel better now."
The Wei family's Danyuan covered his chest. His ribs were broken by the demon ape just now. "I didn't expect that he only had an early Danyuan, and his combat power was so terrifying. Is he a monster?"
The powerful Shangguan family curled his lips and said, "Are any of the leaders of Tianman Pavilion normal?"
In Tianman Pavilion, after Zi Chen prepared the betrothal gifts, he took the strong men of Tianman Pavilion and embarked on the teleportation array to the depths of the chaotic land. The journey originally took a month, but because of the emergence of the teleportation array , and became extremely short-lived.
In just a few breaths, Zi Chen and his party arrived at Chaos City.
Outside the teleportation array, the powerful men from the Shangguan family had also been waiting here early, waiting for Zi Chen to appear.
In the teleportation array, Zi Chen was the first to appear, followed by the deputy pavilion master Wang Qiong. Behind the two, followed by an old man who looked like a butler, followed closely by the ten mid-level alchemists, and among the ten alchemists The leaders in the mid-term are Ye Lang and Zhang Tong.
"Welcome Master Zi Chen and Master Wang Qiong to Chaos City, please come this way." The receptionist at Shangguan's family said politely.
Zi Chen nodded, walked out of the teleportation array, and walked side by side with Wang Qiong, surrounded by many curious passers-by.
"This is Zi Chen from Tianman Pavilion."
"In the realm of Yukong, Tianman Pavilion was founded. He is indeed young and promising, showing his talent."
"The master of Zichen Pavilion is very powerful, but unfortunately, the foundation of the powerful people in Tianman Pavilion is really insufficient. Only ten alchemists came this time, and they were all in the middle stage of alchemy, not even one in the late stage."
There were some deliberately suppressed comments in the crowd. Today's Tianman Pavilion is no longer what it used to be, and Zi Chen is not something everyone can discuss without any scruples.
Along the way, the monks from the Shangguan family introduced the surrounding environment to Zi Chen and Wang Qiong, who were here for the first time.
The person who came was obviously a receptionist. During the journey, apart from greetings and greetings, he didn't say a word related to Zi Chen's purpose of coming.
Soon, everyone arrived at the door of Shangguan's house.
But here, some important personnel of the Shangguan family had already appeared at the door, led by Shangguan Feixiong and Shangguan Feilin.
Although he was removed from the position of head of the family, Shangguan Feilin is still a direct descendant of the family and holds real power.
"Zi Chen has met a few seniors." Under the leadership of the reception staff, Zi Chen stepped forward and bowed to salute the senior figures. With a spring breeze-like smile on his face, he passed over everyone's faces one by one, and then fell. It happened to Shangguan Feilin.
Seeing Zi Chen's smile and expression, Shangguan Feilin felt uncomfortable in his heart. Seeing this expression, he would think of the scene when Zi Chen called him Feilin brother in front of many strong men.
Wang Qiong and others also clasped their fists and bowed to the powerful Shangguan family as a salute, while the old man who looked like a butler next to them just nodded slightly.
"Haha, Zi Chen, you are finally here. We have been waiting for you here for a long time, and our legs are sore from standing there." Shangguan Feixiong laughed, then took two steps forward, pulling Zi Chen to enter the door of Shangguan's house.
The faces of other senior figures were also full of smiles at this moment. Even those who had deliberately made things difficult for Zi Chen had kind smiles on their faces, including of course Shangguan Feilin.
As for the reason, it's naturally not Zi Chen's reputation, but the old man who looks like a housekeeper next to Zi Chen.
He is the existence that transcends Dan Yuan in Tianman Pavilion. He has returned to his old age, and the pressure beyond Dan Yuan is slightly released, which is enough to make everyone respect him and not dare to neglect him.
Shangguan Feixiong pulled Zi Chen into Shangguan's house, and then introduced him to the environment of Shangguan's house with great interest. Looking at his expression, he seemed to regard Zi Chen as one of his own.
"Hypocritical." Shangguan Feilin, who was following behind, saw this scene and felt a little indignant.
But before he could express his dissatisfaction, he felt a trembling breath going straight to the bottom of his heart. In front of the crowd, he saw two old men walking towards them quickly. Shangguan Feilin happened to know one of them. My own ancestor.
"I have met two ancestors."
But before he could guess the identity of the other person, some elders saluted respectfully. Shangguan Feilin was shocked, it turned out that these two were his ancestors.
"Haha, little friend Zi Chen." One of the ancestors laughed and came straight to Zi Chen. Then he pulled Zi Chen very cordially and introduced him to another old man, saying: "Brother, this is the one I often follow. You are talking about little friend Zichen."
"He is indeed a talented person." Another ancestor looked at Zi Chen and nodded with satisfaction.
Zi Chen was a little embarrassed. He was here to get engaged to Yue'er, and there were many generations between them. He quickly bowed and saluted, saying respectfully: "Zi Chen has met these two ancestors."
"You're welcome, you're welcome. We monks go against the grain and don't need to worry too much about etiquette."
Both ancestors are very easy to talk to.
"Two ancestors, let me introduce you. This is the supreme elder of our Tianman Pavilion, Gui Lao."
The two of them were extremely polite when they first appeared. Zi Chen was certainly not a fool, and he understood that what the other party was selling was the dignity of returning to his old age.
I have "seen" an ancestor clasping his fists towards the old turtle, but he didn't seem to know what to call him. It seemed that it was extremely inappropriate to address an adult in this situation.
"Let's call ourselves brothers. I'm older than you, so just call me Brother Turtle." Old Turtle smiled and waved his hand.
"Then we two brothers have met Brother Gui. This is my eldest brother, Shangguan Hongde." Shangguan Hongwu introduced, and then Shangguan Hongde clasped his fists.
In this way, the two parties have met and got to know each other, and then, of course, Shangguan Feixiong has nothing to do with him. He can only follow behind. As for the front, there are three existences that transcend Dan Yuan and Zi Chen, a total of four people.
"Shangguan's family is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger." They were chatting and laughing along the way. When approaching the main hall, Gui Lao suddenly sighed.
The smiles on their faces did not diminish, but their hearts moved, and they obviously knew that the other party had sensed it.
Entering the hall and taking their seats, Shangguan Hongde and Gui Lao were sitting on the left and right. Under Gui Lao were Zi Chen, Wang Qiong, Ye Lang, and Zhang Tong respectively. The following eight mid-level Danyuan people were standing.
On the other side, there are Shangguan Hongwu, Shangguan Feixiong, Feilin, and several senior figures.
After we were seated, refreshments were served. Since the Shangguan family entertains guests, the refreshments are naturally of the highest quality.
The three beings who transcended Dan Yuan were chatting happily, sometimes bursting into loud laughter, and below, everyone's faces were laughing along with them.
After the three of them had finished chatting, Zi Chen stood up and explained his purpose.
This was obviously a serious matter. Naturally, the three strongest men could not make up their minds, so they handed over the right to speak to Shangguan Feixiong, which meant that he had full authority to act as the agent.
Shangguan Feixiong nodded, then stood up and said to the three strongest men: "We have already prepared for this engagement, and the date has been chosen. It will be held in nine days."
"Brother Gui, what do you think after nine days?" Shangguan Hongde looked at Gui Lao.
"This is a matter for young people. Young people should make the decision themselves. As long as Zi Chen feels good about it." Old Turtle chuckled.
"Junior, I have no objection. Nine days later, nine days later, when I came, I prepared a small gift, I hope you will accept it." Zi Chen said, and then motioned to Zhang Tong to take out something.
"Haha, Master Zichen Pavilion, with your status, how can you give me such a small gift? Even if it is a small gift, it will definitely open our eyes."
A hearty laugh came from outside the hall, and then footsteps sounded, but old men walked in from outside the hall.
A total of eight people came, and Zi Chen had seen four of them, all of whom were existences that transcended Dan Yuan. As for the other four, they had the same energy and spirit, and presumably they also surpassed Dan Yuan.
As a result, eleven beings who transcended Dan Yuan appeared in the hall, and there was only one person on Zi Chen's side.
Is this a demonstration?
Zi Chen's expression remained unchanged, but there was speculation in his heart. He looked at Old Turtle, whose expression remained unchanged and still had a faint smile on his face.
"Brother Gui, Brother Hong De, please don't mind if we take the liberty of coming to disturb you. We just heard that the master of Zichen Pavilion has returned from a breakthrough, and we would like to come and have a look." Several people clasped their fists after entering the hall.
"It doesn't matter, it's more lively when there are more people." Old Turtle smiled lightly.
"Brother Gui doesn't mind. Of course our Shangguan family doesn't mind, and everyone happens to be there, so I won't invite you to the engagement ceremony." Shangguan Hongde also laughed.
Then, a group of beings who transcended Dan Yuan sat down.
After nodding, their eyes fell on Zi Chen. Obviously, it was time for Zi Chen to give out the bride price.
