Fly past suddenly.

"You two distinguished guests, are you really planning to attend the banquet?"

The shopkeeper saw Mr. Chen and his partner coming downstairs, pretending to say goodbye, and said with some concern.

There is no good banquet at all. If you go there rashly, your future will be uncertain.

"No, but I'll have to trouble the shopkeeper to go there."

Mr. Chen shook his head. The two golden fish symbols this morning had changed. It was time to enter the secret realm of Xilong River.

He didn't have time to attend the Hongmen Banquet at the Tian Mansion, but this matter had to have a set of rules after all, and it couldn't be decided unclearly.

"What?!"

The shopkeeper looked puzzled.

"Send this business card to the Tian residence."

Mr. Chen took out a business card that he had just written. The paper was ordinary, the same material used in mortal world, but that was not important. What was important was the content inside.

"I hope you won't curse me in this post. The old man will never come back."

The shopkeeper said this half jokingly, half seriously.

He also knew that the content was important, but if any big shot in the city wanted to see this content, then he, as the messenger, would most likely be used as a tool to vent his anger.

"You can take a look."

Mr. Chen is not the kind of person who doesn't consider others. By doing this, he can naturally ensure that the shopkeeper will not be in danger on this trip and will be treated respectfully. It is a job that makes him proud.

After today, the people in the city of Sijiu would not dare to do anything to offend others because of this relationship.

"This... distinguished guest! You... are such an important person."

The shopkeeper knew that Mr. Chen was a very particular person, but for the sake of his life, he still took a look at the contents of the name card.

Then……

His expression changed from solemn to excited and awed. This person's background was so shocking that some people would be frightened.

"Now you feel relieved, dare to go to the Tian Mansion?"

Mr. Chen joked.

"Yes, it's an honor for the old man."

The shopkeeper took the name card, bowed, turned around and walked out of the Red Line Building, looking very proud and high-spirited.

Today will be a rare moment of pride for him.

Although the cultivators in the Four-Nine City are strong, they will have to show some respect to Chen Sheng from now on since he has been involved.

Tian Mansion.

There were many guests, and all of them were prominent figures in the city.

They gathered together, knowing clearly the purpose of this trip, but they restrained their thoughts, chatting and laughing, without any sign of intention to cause trouble.

"If Mr. Chen doesn't come, how will we end this?"

Tian Wen is the leader of the younger generation of the Tian family. He attaches great importance to the honor of the family, so he is afraid that the banquet will be difficult to end.

That outsider was able to stir up so much trouble in the city. He must be very capable and will not surrender easily.

"End? Why should we end it? If he doesn't come, we will go there immediately and beat him to death."

The head of the Tian family asked back.

His calculations were never straightforward.

Both positive and negative aspects are possible. If Chen Sheng doesn't come, he can influence the overall situation, forcibly kill this person and seize the opportunity from him.

“High, really high!”

Tian Wen praised repeatedly. He was very envious of the clan leader's ability to form alliances and make alliances. He still needed to gain more experience before he could influence the situation.

then……

A burst of noise came from the Tian Mansion. It turned out to be Li Chengru.

He still looked very proud, his clothes were very elegant, and his eyes were indifferent, as if he was looking down on others.

Don’t say…

Everyone just buys into this.

"Mr. Li, I am the head of the Ming family. Nice to meet you."

"I have known Mr. Li's name for a long time, but I have never had the chance to meet him. I am so happy to meet him this time."

"Come here, let me get a little bit of the alchemy master's spirituality."

…

Alchemists are naturally proud, and even if they make mistakes occasionally, it does not affect their superior status.

What's more, in Jingxiao Chamber of Commerce, it was not a mistake involving alchemy, but a loss of personal wealth, which was nothing.

"Mr. Li, please take a seat."

The head of the Tian family respects Li Chengru very much. Unlike Mr. Chen, Li Chengru has been working in the local area for many years and has connections with various families. He also has extensive connections outside and must not be offended.

From the beginning to the end, the target of their attack was Chen Shenglai.

"Um."

Li Chengru glanced around and didn't see any figure holding a grudge, so he said, "That kid, hasn't he come yet?"

He really hated Chen Sheng.

The inheritance of alchemy from the second-level alchemist is related to cultivation, and it is the revenge of destroying the Tao.

It was even more hateful that he lost face at the auction.

A man lives for his face, and he is a famous alchemist in the city of Sijiu, who pays more attention to skin training. Being humiliated in front of others is really a great hatred.

"Maybe it's still on the way."

The head of the Tian family said casually.

No matter what, the trend has already begun, and what happens next is not up to Chen Sheng.

"Young people who are proud and arrogant may not come."

Li Chengru has lived for many years and has seen the cruelty of everyone, but he just stays cheerful and waits for the development of things.

What he thought was that if he made some promises, the inheritance of the second-level alchemist's alchemy would return to his hands.

"Wait a little longer."

Everyone had their own calculations, but the head of the Tian family was sitting on the Diaoyutai, feeling that victory was within his grasp.

While we were waiting, the Si hour passed.

"Humph, you arrogant boy, you really don't know how to appreciate a good person. We were kind enough to plan for him, but he made us wait in vain."

Li Chengru was fanning the flames, but from a moral perspective, he remained calm and was unwilling to be too straightforward.

"That's right, this person lacks moral integrity. If he were allowed to ascend to a high position, there would surely be great suffering for all living beings."

"The opportunity to enter the Xilong River Secret Realm belongs to my Sijiu City. He is an outsider and has no right to get involved."

"Hey, the more you talk, the angrier you get. We'll just rush over and take him down."

…

For a time, the voices criticizing Chen Sheng were extremely intense.

However, if you look carefully, you can see that these people have their emotions under control very well, their eyes are clear and they are very calm, they are just looking for an excuse to make trouble.

"No hurry, all the wise men are here, let's have a good meal before we go kill the bandits."

The head of the Tian family spoke in a gentle manner, but he was murderous. He replaced the word "lesson" with "kill". He was a cruel and ruthless person.

Now that I have offended you, I cannot let you go.

"good!"

At this point, everyone simply let go and expressed their intention to kill Chen Sheng without any reservation.

Next.

Banquets were set up one after another, and with glasses of wine flowing, it seemed as if the outcome had already been decided and the celebration was already underway.

Outside the door.

A wealthy old man came slowly. He was in good spirits and had a rosy face. He was obviously here to cause trouble, but he looked like a VIP.

“This is it.”

The shopkeeper stood at the gate of Tian's house with his visiting card in his hand, looking around with a calm and indifferent attitude.

There was no way, he was the messenger of a big shot today and his status had greatly risen.

"Who is it? All the important people in the palace are here today, so don't offend them. If you have something to ask, please do it tomorrow."

The visitors to the Tian Mansion today are all very important, so we cannot be careless in the reception.

The person guarding the door at this time was the housekeeper of the Tian Mansion.

He saw that the shopkeeper had a calm expression and was confident, so he couldn't help but become more polite in his words.

"The lords in the palace will surely be interested in this matter, so you must not stop me."

The shopkeeper was very dignified and his words were powerful and sonorous.

"Oh, what is it?"

At this time, the manager did not dare to say anything, but instead began to probe further.

His principle in managing things is that if he really meets a stupid person, he will deal with it later, but he must not do things rashly.

"The one at Hongxian Building asked me to deliver a name card to let the important people in the Forty-Nine City recognize it."

The shopkeeper waved his hand with a look of high spirits. The business card in his arms gave him great confidence.

"Just wait."

It’s really the real one.

Chen Sheng sent a messenger, and the manager did not dare to act on his own, but went into the inner courtyard to ask for instructions from the master there.

"Oh, that's the case. Let him in."

The head of the Tian family said indifferently.

"What? That kid is here."

Li Chengru was shocked. He had something on his mind. This banquet was tasteless. It would be more fun to go into the city and beat up the villain Chen Sheng with the people.

"Everyone, something interesting happened. The guy from Red Line Building sent us a business card."

The head of the Tian family stood up with a smile on his face, the kind of smile that one gets from someone who enjoys watching the fun. It was obvious that he did not attach much importance to this business card.

"Negotiation? Not at this time. He is too insincere."

Li Chengru was the first to set the tone. If the content of the name card indicated submission, he was afraid that the people in the city would lose control and let it go.

Then, his second-level alchemist's alchemy inheritance and lost face would never be regained.

"In my opinion, you don't even need to look at it, just throw it away."

The fact is, none of the leaders in the city want to let Chen go.

That person has the ability and can fight to build a foundation. If they miss this opportunity to divide the benefits, many of them will hardly be able to have a sip of hot soup.

"You still have to watch it. If you give in, just relax."

The head of the Tian family made the decision, but he had no intention of negotiating. He simply treated this as an after-dinner activity.

In the end, they struck back hard and taught the ignorant outsiders a lesson.

Amid the noise, a wealthy old man walked in. He said politely, "My lords, how are you?"

Before, he would not have been able to be so calm, but he had seen more noble people who were very kind in their conduct and actions.

He knew that those so-called big shots in the city who were so arrogant were actually frogs in the well and were nothing.

"You are the owner of Hongxianlou. Mr. Chen didn't dare to come here himself, so he sent you here. I'm really not afraid that your life will be in danger."

Someone recognized the shopkeeper's background and threatened him.

"My life will be safe. I know that you gentlemen are reasonable people."

The shopkeeper didn't know whether this man wanted to laugh at him or really wanted to attack him, but it didn't matter, he was not afraid at all.

The reason he stated was not to hope that the bigwigs in the city would let him go out of their conscience, but the business card in his arms and the words written on it were more reasonable.

"You can talk."

Everyone didn't know the true meaning of this, but they felt that what he said made them feel comfortable, so they decided not to compare themselves with such a small person.

"Hmph, bring me the name card. I want to see what he has to say."

Li Chengru was not very polite to these messy nonsense. He waved his hand and asked the shopkeeper to bring the business card.

He wanted to see what kind of noble words that clown could write to shock everyone.

"Master Li Dan, this name card is very precious, you have to be careful."

The shopkeeper did not refuse, but gave some serious instructions when handing over the business card.
