Chapter 3456 Deliberately Making Things Difficult
"You are too polite, butler." Leng Xiaoyao said, "Since the butler has left the city, I wonder if you could take us into the city. My friend bought a house in the city a few days ago, and I have been living with her recently."
"Okay, I'll take you back with me!" The steward did not refuse. Since they originally lived in the city, there would be no problem in taking them in now.
Then the group followed the steward back.
"May I know what your two Taoist friends' names are?" the steward asked Leng Xiaoyao and Nan Weiyue.
Seeing that she is only eighteen or nineteen years old, she has reached the peak of the foundation-building stage. She is really a rare cultivation genius! Although the other one is almost thirty years old, it is also very good to reach the peak of the foundation-building stage at this age.
If they have not joined a sect, they can be recruited into Longgu City and become disciples of the Long family.
"My name is Leng Xiaoyao." Leng Xiaoyao said.
"My name is Nan Weiyue." Nan Weiyue said.
"I wonder if the two Taoist friends have already joined the sect?" asked the steward.
"I have not joined any sect, but my fellow Taoist is from the Tiancheng Sect." Leng Xiaoyao said. He also saw the intention of the steward. He probably wanted to recruit them into the Long family.
After all, there are not many people who are at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage at the age of eighteen or nineteen!
Of course, Lu Chengfeng is one.
It is extremely rare to enter the Jindan stage at the age of 25. Most people will enter the Jindan stage after the age of 30.
"That's such a pity..." Upon hearing this, the butler felt a sense of regret.
Although the other party has not joined any sect, since her partner is in Tiancheng Sect, if she joins, she will also have to join Tiancheng Sect.
"I haven't joined either, but I plan to join the Tiancheng Sect." Nan Weiyue said, because families are not willing to let people from other families join their own family, because maybe they are spies sent by other families! Hearing this, the steward was a little unhappy. Is it that Longgu City doesn't have the Tiancheng Sect? Thinking so, he asked: "Oh! You plan to join the Tiancheng Sect, do you think my Longgu City is not as good as the Tiancheng Sect?"
"Manager, you're worrying too much. I didn't want to join Longgu City because I'm a member of the Nan family from Heiyun City. Although I'm being hunted by the Nan family now, that doesn't change the fact that I'm a member of the Nan family." Nan Weiyue didn't hide it, because she would be living in Longgu City for a long time. If she hid it, people would think there was something wrong with her and then do something to her, which would be bad.
After hearing what Nan Weiyue said, the butler gave up the idea of bringing her into the Long family.
However, since the other party is a member of the Nan family, we still need to investigate further just in case.
After all, no one knew whether what she said about being hunted by the Nan family was true or not.
Leng Xiaoyao and his group followed the steward and returned to Longgu City smoothly.
After entering the city, Leng Xiaoyao and Nan Weiyue separated from everyone.
When Lu Chengfeng and others were on their way back with the steward, the steward asked him how he met and got to know Leng Xiaoyao.
Lu Chengfeng didn't dare to hide it, so he just told it straight.
When the steward learned that Leng Xiaoyao was not a foundation-building cultivator, but might be a golden elixir cultivator, he was also surprised.
The 19-year-old Jindan Zhenren is indeed a girl with extraordinary talent! Moreover, the other party can also set up a battle formation.
It is such a pity that we fail to recruit such a genius as our own!
Qingfeng
Town.
Mu Hongcheng and others just returned from the Black Cloud Forest today, and they all looked very miserable.
But after they were injured, they found a place to heal and came back after they recovered. But on the way back, they encountered spirit beasts again, so they came back injured again.
The news that Shen Yanqing wanted to break off the engagement with Mu Hongcheng had spread throughout Qingfeng Town, so when Mu Hongcheng and Shen Yulin came back, they heard about it and were both very happy.
Although this made Mu Hongcheng somewhat embarrassed, he didn't care as long as he could cancel the engagement.
Mu Hongcheng didn't even bother to go home to take a shower and change clothes, and went to Shen's house with Shen Yulin.
Aunt Liu, also known as Shen Yulin, has been in a very good mood these days, because she has always wanted Shen Yulin to snatch Mu Hongcheng away, and now her wish has finally come true.
The Mu family also heard it, but never spoke out. They knew what their son was thinking and they supported him.
Even though Shen Yanqing is a legitimate daughter, she still has no mother.
Although Shen Yulin is a concubine's daughter, her mother is the head of the family, and she also has a younger brother. In the future, won't the Shen family belong to Shen Yulin's younger brother?
Therefore, the Mu family also hopes that Mu Hongcheng and Shen Yulin will be together, but this matter should be dealt with after he returns.
In the past few days, Shen Yanqing has been practicing. Some people outside say that Mu Hongcheng is not right, and some say that Shen Yanqing is not right. She can't hear these and doesn't care.
Although Mu Hongcheng wanted to cancel the engagement, he didn't want to be the one at fault, so when he met the head of the Shen family, Mu Hongcheng said helplessly: "Uncle Shen, I have always treated Yulin as my sister, but Yanqing insisted that there was some shameful relationship between Yulin and me and wanted to cancel the engagement with me. Since Yanqing wanted to cancel the engagement with me, I naturally respect Yanqing's decision, and things have developed to the point today. Even if we are forced to be together, there is a gap, which is not good for anyone."
The head of the Shen family would naturally rather believe Shen Yanqing than Mu Hongcheng. Although he didn't want to pursue anything, Mu Hongcheng's attitude still made him very angry, so he deliberately made things difficult for him.
"Qing'er might have misunderstood because you two are too close! Since you and Lin'er don't have the kind of relationship that could lead to misunderstanding, it's better to keep a distance. After all, there are differences between men and women. If you get too close, outsiders might misunderstand you! Lin'er isn't a child anymore, it's time for her to get married. If outsiders misunderstand her, how can we explain it to her? Don't you think so? Nephew Mu." said the head of the Shen family, staring at Mu Hongcheng without blinking, to see how he would react when he heard this.
When Mu Hongcheng heard this, his face changed instantly, and he became anxious: "Uncle Shen..."
Mu Hongcheng wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.
Patriarch Shen pretended to be stupid and innocent: "What does Nephew Mu want to say?"
Humph! Obviously there was some shameful interaction, yet you still say there was none.
If Mu Hongcheng had admitted it directly and openly, he would have looked up to him and would not have stopped him and Shen Yulin, but he didn't even dare to admit it.
"No, no." Mu Hongcheng said immediately. At this time, he really didn't dare to admit it, because if he admitted it, he would be slapped in the face.
She was even more afraid of angering the head of the Shen family, which would make it even more difficult to cancel the engagement.
So, let's wait until the engagement is cancelled! "Since there is no such thing, then you go back first. I'll take Qing'er to the mansion to cancel the engagement later." The head of the Shen family said, because it was Shen Yanqing who wanted to cancel the engagement with Mu Hongcheng, so they had to take the initiative to go to the door, so that too many people would not gossip.
