Chapter 181: A gathering of powerful people

Time goes back to before nightfall.

Today, Su Ming and Xu Qianqian both asked for leave from the Demon Hunting Academy.

Although this is an extraordinary period when manpower is urgently needed and even the students have heavy tasks to complete, the academy is not very willing to approve unnecessary vacations, especially for top and elite students.

Especially Xu Qianqian, who has become the top student in the Hunter Department. With her outstanding strength, I wonder how many difficult tasks she can complete. If it is not necessary, the academy really does not want to approve her vacation.

But there is no way. Xu Qianqian is now facing an extraordinary period and is responsible for an important bait mission. Many forces in Longyao City, including the Xu family, need her cooperation. She naturally cannot leave the Xu family who is on defense and run to the college at this time.

With so many powerful forces in Longyao City backing them up, the college had no choice but to approve this holiday no matter how reluctant it was.

Su Ming took advantage of this holiday and contacted An Zijin and others, telling them that he had an important mission and was not in the academy at the moment, so they should not worry about him.

In this way, Su Ming successfully transformed himself and completely became the being of "Ming Wang".

Throughout the day, Su Ming stayed by Xu Qianqian's side, spending time with her.

During the conversation, the two also talked about the last transaction of red ivy.

Xu Qianqian said that she had prepared a lot of goods and would be able to make a transaction soon.

Su Ming would naturally not refuse and claimed that he could trade at any time. Red Trachelospermum was also ready at all times and was already eager for it.

It was almost nightfall when Xu Qianqian brought Su Ming out of her room and headed in one direction.

"Where are we going?"

Seeing Xu Qianqian leading the way in front, Su Ming couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

Xu Qianqian gave an answer.

"Right now, there's a party going on in the meeting room of the main hall."

Xu Qianqian said this.

"reunion?"

Su Ming raised his eyebrows.

"It's not an ordinary party." Xu Qianqian seemed to see Su Ming's lack of interest and explained, "The people present are all important personnel from the major family forces who will be participating in the next action."

"Those people are either direct descendants of a family like me or heirs of a power, or they are high-level professionals like you."

Xu Qianqian's words told Su Ming how extraordinary this party was.

"That is to say, all the people who showed up at this party are high-ranking upper-class people in Longyao City, right?"

Su Ming suddenly became interested.

"That's right." Xu Qianqian nodded and said, "My father just contacted me and asked me to show up there. This is a rare opportunity, so you should go with me and take a look. Learn what kind of people are influencing Longyao City now and in the future, who can be your friends, and who may become your enemy."

This is one of the few things Xu Qianqian can do for Su Ming.

She knew that with Su Ming's potential and his dual-professional status, he would already be a well-known figure by now, and would definitely stand out in Longyao City in the future and show his existence and influence to the world.

It was only a matter of time for someone like Su Ming to have intersections, entanglements, and even conflicts with the upper-class people in Longyao City.

In this case, being able to know something about future friends or enemies in advance is definitely a rare good thing.

So, after receiving the contact from Xu Yongfeng, Xu Qianqian thought about it for a while and agreed to bring Su Ming with her.

Even though Xu Qianqian knew that Xu Yongfeng asked her to do this most likely to create confusion and give outsiders the impression that she was in cahoots with the Yun family, for Su Ming's sake, Xu Qianqian still decided to do it.

She believed that even if Yun Langyue was here and knew about such a party, she would not mind Xu Yongfeng using her name to gain momentum for the future.

As long as it was beneficial to Su Ming, she would just ignore some trivial rumors.

Su Ming didn't know Xu Qianqian's considerations, but he was indeed interested in this party.

"Although I don't really like that kind of occasion, it's worth attending once because I can take a good look at the intricate relationships and important members between the various forces in Longyao City."

Su Ming tapped the mask on his face and smiled.

"You can tell Yun Langyue in advance and let her know about this." Xu Qianqian said: "After all, you may continue to use the name of the Yun family in the future, and others will regard you as an important figure in the Yun family. This will more or less make some people pay attention to you, and even do something about it."

"Really?" Su Ming curled his lips in disbelief, but then he remembered something and asked, "Will Yun Langyue attend this party?"

If that goblin was here, Su Ming would probably have to seriously consider whether to run away.

Otherwise, with Yun Langyue's playful nature, Su Ming couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't take advantage of the situation and completely prove her identity as a member of the Yun family in front of others and make fun of him.

The girl wished she could keep Su Ming by her side forever. If she could make Su Ming a member of the Yun family, she would definitely be happy.

If that really happened, Su Ming would be very upset.

Fortunately, Xu Qianqian eliminated Su Ming's worries.

"Only the forces that will be participating in the next operation will be present at this gathering. Forces with special natures like the Warlock Guild and the Yunliu Chamber of Commerce will not be present this time." Xu Qianqian said: "Almost all the attendees are big families in Longyao City. Yun Langyue will not be there."

Su Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, that female demon is not here.

Su Ming was relieved and his attitude became more relaxed.

On the other hand, Xu Qianqian's expression was not as relaxed as Su Ming's.

What she just said to Su Ming also applies to herself.

As an important figure in the Xu family and a core direct descendant, there will be more or less people paying attention to Xu Qianqian and even doing something for her.

Unlike the Yun family, who are business people and make money through harmony and have almost no mortal enemies, the Xu family, a large family with deep roots in Longyao City, naturally has a few enemies.

To put it bluntly, this gathering was an exchange among important figures from various family forces, but to put it bluntly, it was also a confrontation between various family forces.

Xu Qianqian would never think that just because everyone was acting together to fight the same enemy, they were friends.

In the adult world, there are no absolute positions, only absolute interests. Presumably, many families would not mind tripping up their opponents when dealing with them, causing them to fall hard, preferably causing them to suffer heavy losses.

As Xu Qianqian is the center of this operation and the bait targeted by the enemy, if someone really wants to trip her up, it would be absolutely fatal.

Xu Yongfeng had thought of this, which was why he organized this party and asked Xu Qianqian to attend, in order to let Xu Qianqian see some things clearly, or even to create momentum for her.

As long as Xu Qianqian and the protector sent by the Yun family attend the party together, the relationship between the two will definitely arouse people's speculation.

At that time, even if someone wanted to trip up Xu Qianqian, they would have to consider carefully whether it would offend the Yun family or whether they would face a powerful senior professional.

The party venue is located in the atrium of the main hall, covering a large area. The ceiling is also a movable design that can be closed or opened. Whether it is an indoor party or an open-air party, it can be perfectly enjoyed.

Today's party is an open-air party. The ceiling has long been opened. The moonlit night is gradually falling, and a full moon hangs high in the center of the venue, which looks quite pleasing to the eye.

Su Ming came here under the leadership of Xu Qianqian. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but think about it.

"If it rains heavily at this time, will this high-end and classy party be ruined?"

Su Ming had such a bold idea.

But Su Ming still has the ability to do it.

There were so many extraordinary items in the backpack, even things like the Hindering Smoke Wave, how could there not be means of artificial rainfall?

Unfortunately, after entering the venue, Su Ming had to give up this idea.

Because he knew that a mere rain would not have any effect on the people in the conference hall.

----"powerful".

This was Su Ming's first thought after arriving at the venue.

There were not many people in the venue, only a few dozen at most, not even a hundred. Considering the scale of a large upper-class gathering, the number of attendees could be described as "very few".

But even with these dozens of people, each of them made Su Ming feel an extraordinary temperament and aura.

Some of them were chatting and laughing, exuding an absolute confidence that was different from ordinary people.

Some of them were looking at each other, but their eyes were as sharp as eagles.

Some of them compete with each other and do not hide their own strength.

Some of them were also shaking hands and greeting each other, but their tightly clasped hands were strong and powerful, showing an amazing sense of strength.

These scenes constitute a picture of the various states of being of the strong.

Especially when each of them was full of vigor and vitality, letting their breathtaking aura soar into the sky, colliding and entangled with each other, this picture of hundreds of scenes seemed to have directly turned into a war picture of millions of troops fighting each other on the battlefield. That sense of presence and momentum simply showed their uniqueness.

"Are these the senior professionals from the big families in Longyao City?"

Su Ming looked at this scene, and his blood began to boil in his heart.

He believed that if there were other people watching the party, they would definitely feel longing, yearning and envy for the scenes before their eyes.

Because this is a place where only the truly strong can enter.

Ordinary people, even the core descendants of major families, seemed to become supporting roles, waiting respectfully on the side.

“This is where a professional should be.”

Su Ming couldn't help but have this feeling.

It seems that if I can never step into a gathering of this level in my lifetime, then there is no other meaning and it would be a waste of my life.

Xu Qianqian standing by obviously had the same idea, her eyes flickering constantly.

The desire to become stronger is stimulated to the extreme here.

"Come in."

Xu Qianqian took a deep breath, calmed down, and whispered to Su Ming beside her.

"Um."

Su Ming didn't say much, just nodded, as if he didn't care, but also as if he was expecting something.

The two of them walked into the venue together, attracting a lot of people's attention.

Almost immediately, many powerful people in the field focused their attention on Su Ming behind Xu Qianqian.

"Who is that?"

A burly man muttered with a frown on his face.

"I can't detect any aura or magic at all"

A beautiful woman also looked over with interest.

"Isn't that the girl from Xu Yongfeng's family?"

Someone noticed that Su Ming was following behind Xu Qianqian, and couldn't help but feel moved.

"Could he be that person?"

Some people noticed Su Ming's identity and immediately cast scrutinizing eyes towards him.

Obviously, Xu Qianqian is closely protected by senior professionals sent by the Yun family. This is not a secret in the eyes of some people.

They knew why this seemingly mysterious guy came and what kind of strength he had.

In a corner of the crowd, a man dressed casually looked at his friend beside him with a half-smile.

"That's the mysterious strong man who defeated you last time, right?"

The person the man was talking to was Gao Xu, who was carrying a sword on his back.

Gao Xu was seen staring at Su Ming who walked into the venue, and his expression became not very good.

"Xu Qianqian"

Beside Gao Xu, Xu Yanyan also appeared here naturally. The look she gave Xu Qianqian was full of coldness and jealousy, while her gaze towards Su Ming was somewhat uncertain.

The entrance of Su Ming and his companion attracted the attention of many people, and in less than a few seconds, they received all kinds of looks.

Among them, Gao Xu and Xu Yanyan's eyes were the most complicated.

The casually dressed man who was closest to Gao Xu saw this most clearly.

"You really fell into that person's hands?"

The man had some teasing intent.

"Don't be complacent." Gao Xu glanced at the other person and said, "If it were you, you wouldn't be much better."

"Really?" The man said disapprovingly, "Maybe. If I were the one who caused Gao Xu to suffer such a great loss, I might not be able to get away with it either. But you are not so afraid of that mysterious guy, are you?"

"Afraid?" Gao Xu said indifferently, "Not really, I just think that guy seems very strange."

"Oh?" The man became interested and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"You haven't experienced it yourself, so you don't understand." Gao Xu said in a deep voice: "That guy's physical fitness is very low compared to ours, and his fighting skills are terrible, but he relied on his inexplicable super perception and amazing right hand to make me suffer a great loss."

That’s what Gao Xu said.

"I always feel that there is still a gap between him and us. He is not a high-level professional."

Gao Xu's words made the man raise his eyebrows.

"Is this a mysterious strong man who is not a high-level professional but can defeat high-level professionals?"

The man's curiosity was aroused.

"interesting."

Thinking of this, the man had some urge to go forward and test it out.
