…
Tianqing Pavilion's business has been more or less affected due to the exclusion of the five major sects, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and it is still the number one business in Dongzhou.
Therefore, when Xiang Sheng came, he saw that there was an endless stream of monks coming and going in front of the Tianqing Pavilion, just as lively as it was a hundred years ago.
When she stepped over the threshold, the servants in charge of reception immediately recognized her identity and greeted her enthusiastically: "Mr. Zhou, I am..."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Xiang Sheng looked depressed and interrupted the servant impatiently, "I lost my token. I asked your steward to send one to me. I have something urgent to do back at the sect!"
"Yes, yes, I'll go right away. Mr. Zhou, please wait in the VIP room."
The servant nodded repeatedly, turned around and left, but he felt contempt in his heart.
Zhou Yuan was ostracized in the sect and dared not resist, but instead vented his anger on these slaves. He is truly a waste.
However, no matter how much contempt he felt in his heart, the servant did not dare to play any tricks and went to call the manager obediently.
Xiang Sheng had just taken a seat in the VIP room when a skinny old man with a goatee walked in with a smile. "Zhou Gaozu, what's wrong? Why are you so anxious?"
Xiang Sheng narrowed his eyes and said, "This steward looks unfamiliar. Where is Steward Zheng?"
Zhou Yuan was not easily frightened. Without much interrogation, he told everything he should and shouldn't say, including the identity and appearance of the manager he met in Tianqing Pavilion and the details of their conversation.
Judging from the appearance of this person, he obviously does not match the "tall and strong" Manager Zheng.
The old man with the goat beard chuckled and said, "Manager Zheng has gone out on business and will be back in two days. My name is Duan, and I am also one of the managers of this pavilion. If you have anything to say, please feel free to tell me."
Manager Duan was very humble, and his intention to make friends and win over was obvious.
Xiang Sheng snorted coldly, "Where is the token I want?"
Manager Duan's expression faltered for a moment. He coughed dryly and said, "The tokens in this pavilion are all managed by Manager Zheng. I have no right to interfere, but..."
He was afraid of angering Xiang Sheng, so he changed the subject immediately, "As the manager of Tianqing Pavilion, I also have the authority to open a space passage into Fangcunji, and I can also bring one person through.
Zhou Gaozu looked anxious and said, "Why don't I take you there right now? No matter where you go, I can open a convenient door for you."
Xiang Sheng frowned when he heard this.
She needed a token to open the interlayer of Fang Cun Ji. Zhou Yuan's token was connected with his soul. She had tried it just now. If she forcibly removed that connection, Tianqing Pavilion would know immediately.
So she had no choice but to come here and cheat and ask for a new token.
I never thought that an accident would happen at this easiest step.
"Why isn't Zhou Gaozu talking?"
Manager Duan frowned slightly, a hint of suspicion on his face. "Weren't you very anxious just now?"
Xiang Sheng immediately collected his thoughts and said coldly, "Just thinking about something. Since you're willing to help, why don't you lead the way?"
The arrow is on the string, and now she can only go in first and then find a way to get the token.
"It's me who's been talking too much."
Manager Duan quickly apologized with a smile, "Master Zhou, please follow me."
Xiang Sheng didn't say anything this time and just followed Manager Duan.
Manager Duan used extraordinary means to win people's hearts, and seemed to be very guilty, so he chose to walk in the deserted aisles.
After turning several corridors, the two came to a quiet room.
Manager Duan closed the door tightly, took out a light green jade from his arms and threw it into the air. It exploded, and a green vortex slowly swirled out.
"alright."
Manager Duan turned around and smiled flatteringly, "Zhou Gaozu, I'll go in first, and you can follow me in."
"knew."
Xiang Sheng waved his hand impatiently, but he felt something was wrong.
But if you think about the whole process, she hasn't revealed any flaws so far. Without flaws, who would be so bored as to plot against an ordinary Fengyue Sect disciple?
As Manager Duan stepped in, the transmission channel gradually shrank.
Xiang Sheng had no choice but to suppress the thoughts in his mind and stepped into the teleportation vortex first.
After he stepped in, the vortex seemed to have consumed the last bit of its power and completely disappeared.
Shortly after the vortex disappeared, Manager Zheng stood in the VIP room holding a brand new token lock, and looked at each other in surprise with the servant who came with him.
"You said Zhou Yuan is coming, where is he?!"
Manager Zheng pointed at the empty VIP room and asked sternly.
The servant was so frightened that he knelt down without saying a word, his face full of fear and confusion, and he hurriedly tried to excuse himself:
"I...I really did receive Master Zhou! I don't know why he disappeared. Please investigate carefully, even if you give me ten thousand guts, I wouldn't dare to lie to you!"
Manager Zheng frowned repeatedly and felt confused when he heard this.
Although Zhou Yuan was a disciple of Fengyue Sect, he was weak and timid by nature and would never dare to stand him up.
"Could it be...something happened?"
Manager Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately responded, "Quick, secretly send someone to look for Zhou Yuan.
If you can't find it, you'll have to pretend you never met Zhou Yuan today. Do you understand? If you dare to say a single word, I'll have your head!"
The servant's face turned pale, sweat pouring down his face, and he nodded hurriedly: "I understand!"
