Chapter 707 Wei Changqing (2 in 1 Chapter)
"Yuxianglou, Commander Shangguan, what does this mean?"
Glancing at the invitation card in his hand, Yin Fanghua looked at Shang Guanyun suspiciously.
Because Shangguan Yun sent her and Xue'er an invitation to a banquet.
Did you make a mistake? Right now the war is not over, both the human race and the monsters have suffered heavy casualties, and their eyes are red from fighting. At this time, don't hurry up to rest and prepare for the battle, and still have the mood to engage in these eating, drinking and merry things?
Although the front is tight and the rear is tight, it has happened in all dynasties, and it is not unheard of when they are on earth.
But where they stayed was the front line!
As if seeing Yin Fanghua and Xue'er's doubts, Shangguan Yun explained: "The two fairies don't know something. This time, it was the young master Wei Changqing of Qingyun Sect and the elder Li Bu who came to the front to help in person, so Marshal Li I specially arranged a banquet to cleanse them up."
"However, Young Master Wei felt that it would not be good to just invite him to a banquet, so he invited all the heroes of the defending country to the banquet together."
"That's right."
Yin Fanghua and Xue'er looked at each other, and they probably understood in their hearts.
Although the two of them are not from the Yanshan country, they have stayed and fought for so long, and they have some understanding of the situation in the Yanshan country.
Because of the prosperous cultivation and the strong sect, although Yanshan Kingdom is similar to the feudal dynasties in ancient China, it is not like those dynasties where the imperial power is above everyone. Instead, the imperial court and the sect control the country together.
Ordinary cultivating sects dominate one side.
The powerful sect can even stand against the imperial court, check and balance or even suppress the imperial power.
Qing Yunzong belongs to this category.
Qingyun Sect is not only the number one sect in Yanshan Kingdom, but also the overlord in the practice circle of Yanshan Kingdom. Not only do other sects dare not compete with it, even the royal family often avoids him and looks at him.
Therefore, the status of the young suzerain of Qingyun Sect in Yanshan is even more noble than that of Tianhuang, the son of the emperor, and the grandson of the emperor.
It's no wonder that General Yanyun Guan even hosted a banquet to welcome him when the battle was tense, and flattered him closely.
"Shangguan Grand Commander,
Thank Marshal Li and Young Master Wei for their kind invitation on behalf of my junior sister and me. It’s just that the two of us are exhausted from fighting those monster bastards for a day, so we won’t go to the banquet tonight. "
After meeting Xueer's eyes briefly, Yin Fanghua refused.
"This……"
Shangguan Yun couldn't help being slightly taken aback, he really didn't expect that Yin Fanghua and Xue'er would refuse.
Qing Yunzong's status in Yanshan is well known to everyone. Even if the young master came to the border in person, even if he was not in a rush to curry favor, he still had to worry about the other party's status and dare not offend him, right? Yin Fanghua and Xueer have such personalities?
But he didn't know that although Qing Yunzong's power and status were great, it had no deterrent effect on Yin Fanghua and Xue'er at all.
You must know that Yin Fanghua and Xue'er came to Yanyun Pass because of the trial mission issued by the Lord of Reincarnation.
He didn't plan to stay in the Yanshan Kingdom, and he would leave as soon as the task was completed. Of course, he didn't need to worry about what the Sect Master Wei Shao thought, Gao was not happy.
"Fairy Yin, Fairy Xue, I'm afraid this is not good?"
Because Yin Fanghua was usually called Xue'er, they all mistakenly thought that Xue'er's surname was Xue, so they also called her Xue Fairy.
Shangguan Yun had a look of embarrassment when he heard the words: "Sect Master Wei heard that the two fairies had heard about the Yaoman's invasion and went down the mountain to contribute to the country, and he admired them very much, but the roll call must meet the two, the two fairies If you don't go..."
Xue'er frowned immediately, and said displeasedly: "Why, if he wants to see us, do we have to go see him?"
"It's not, it's just..."
Shangguan Yun looked puzzled and hesitated for a while.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "The two fairies don't know something. This Young Master Wei has a character that is unambiguous. Since he has made it clear that he wants to see the two, if the two really don't go, he will definitely send someone later. Come, I'm afraid it won't look good to him or to the two fairies."
"Then let him send someone to invite him again. If we are tired, we won't go. What can he do to us?"
Xue'er said with a face full of displeasure, is this treat forced?
"Forget it, Cher."
At this time, Yin Fanghua stopped Xue'er who was still talking, turned to Shangguan Yun and said, "Sorry, Commander Shangguan, my junior sister just got off the battlefield, and she still has anger in her heart, so she spoke a little too aggressively."
"Since the commander-in-chief has said so, the two of us will definitely be there."
"Well, I'll take my leave first."
Shangguan Yun heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, smiled and bowed to the two women, then turned and left.
"Sister Yin, why did you agree to him? That Young Master Wei is not a good thing at first glance, why should we talk to him?"
As soon as Shangguan Yun left, Xue'er couldn't help asking Yin Fanghua.
Yin Fanghua glanced at Xue'er, and said: "Xue'er, if this Young Master Wei is really what Shangguan Yun said, even if we don't go, he will probably send someone to invite him again."
Xue'er said, "Just don't invite me any more."
"That's likely to tear your face apart."
Yin Fanghua shook his head and said: "We have at most two or three days before the task can be completed. There is no need to make troubles at this time. Once the task is completed, we will leave directly and ignore them."
Xue'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Alright then, I'll listen to Sister Yin."
...
Yanyun Pass is not only the number one pass in Yanshan Country, but also Yanyun City, which is backed by it, is also one of the top five largest cities in Yanshan Country, with a permanent population of hundreds of thousands and a limit of a million people.
If not, it would be impossible to hoard hundreds of thousands of heavy troops during wartime.
And Yuxianglou is the most famous comprehensive restaurant in Yanyun City.
It is rumored that the food and wine sold here are not inferior to the imperial meals in the palace, and some special food and wine are even better.
And there are many other special services that make people linger.
Therefore, this place is always full of dignitaries and dignitaries on weekdays, drinking to their heart's content here, even though the food and drinks here are ten or a hundred times more expensive than other places, there are still a lot of guests.
It wasn't until the army of the Wolf Barbarian Khanate invaded the country recently that the entire Yanyun City was shrouded in the cloud of war, and the business of Yuxianglou became deserted.
Under the threat of war, people's minds are all focused on the war situation and worrying about their wealth and life, and their appetites are temporarily ignored.
Moreover, even if there are some people who still have the desire to satisfy their appetites, it is not convenient to come to Yuxianglou to eat, drink and have fun under the current situation of continuous wars and the tense situation of the whole city.
But tonight, the Yuxiang Tower became lively again.
The smell of delicious food and wine is still lingering, and the tantalizing gluttons can use the light of the lights from a distance to see the guys in the restaurant busy up and down from the open doors and windows, and from time to time, you can see one after another. The figure of the maid.
Outside the restaurant, there are tight guards all around.
All of them were soldiers in heavy armor and holding spears, exuding a fierce and fierce aura. These were all elite soldiers transferred from the Marshal's Mansion, and each of them was an elite soldier who could stand up to ten in battle.
Standing close to the guard inside and outside the restaurant are a group of sect disciples dressed in splendid blue clothes, with their brows full of arrogance.
These are the internal and external disciples of Qingyun Sect. The weakest among them exudes a tyrannical aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the person in charge of it is Jindan Daoist.
At the entrance of the restaurant, Li Zhaolong, Marshal of Yanyunguan, the most powerful person before Yanyunguan, cameo as a guest messenger, stood at the entrance of the restaurant with a smile on his face, welcoming guests from all walks of life.
When Yin Fanghua and Xue'er arrived, they saw such a scene.
Seeing Yin Fanghua and Xue'er from afar, Li Zhaolong immediately put on a smile and walked up quickly: "Fairy Yin, Fairy Xue, you are here, there are only two missing now, Sect Master Wei and the others are waiting for you!" Urgent. Please come in, please come in."
After speaking, he quickly invited the two girls to the restaurant.
Yin Fanghua and Xue'er looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of surprise and contempt in each other's eyes.
This Li Zhaolong had always looked majestic and solemn before, but who would have thought that he would have such a face now. Judging from his tone, those who didn't know thought he was running errands for that Sovereign Master Wei to welcome guests.
The majestic border general, the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops, this servile appearance is really contemptuous.
But don't tell me if you see it through.
However, even though they didn't like Li Zhaolong in their hearts, they were still fighting under the opponent's subordinates. Therefore, although Yin Fanghua and Xue'er had contempt in their hearts, they didn't show it on their faces.
Yin Fanghua and Xue'er followed Li Zhaolong all the way to the restaurant and entered a huge palace-like hall on the top floor.
I saw that countless banquets with delicious food and wine had been set up, and several people were already seated among them.
The leading nobleman, who is full of noble air but with a bit of evil and arrogant temperament, is presumably Wei Changqing, the young patriarch of Qingyun Sect.
Judging from the aura exuded by the other party, the cultivation level of this Young Master Wei seems to be much higher than theirs, as if he has surpassed the peak of Jindan, and is infinitely close to the realm of Nascent Soul, which can be said to be half a step of Nascent Soul.
Another old man in Gepao with a deep breath was sitting not far from him, it should be Li Bu, the elder of Qingyun Sect who came with him.
Compared with Wei Changqing, this Li Bu's aura is more obscure and profound. With the level of Yin Fanghua and Xue'er, it is still impossible to accurately judge the specific cultivation level of the other party, but the identity of the other party's identity as a Nascent Soul Realm master is certain. Yes, but I don't know whether the opponent is in the early, middle or late stage of Nascent Soul.
Yin Fanghua and Xue'er, who were still sitting under the banquet, were familiar with each other. They were basically comrades-in-arms of these Tianyu monsters and barbarians fighting fiercely.
Bai Yunsheng, a flying swordsman from Feijianmen.
Jin Guangzong's Golden Summit Master.
Tieshan real person of Iron Banner Gate.
...
As well as Shangguan Yun, the commander of the Immortal Faying who sent invitations to the two of them before, and so on.
All the participants had one thing in common. Except for Li Zhaolong, the chief general at the border and the commander in chief of the army, the rest were all powerful practitioners who were at the peak of Jindan or above.
If Li Zhaolong hadn't been a landlord, the proprietor of the banquet, and everyone's nominal commander in chief, he probably wouldn't have been able to have a share.
After all, although he himself has practiced for many years, but limited by his talent and energy, he has only reached the foundation-building level after many years of practice, which is not at the same level as everyone present, that is, he can rely on the identity of the border general and the commander-in-chief of the army. There is a place here.
While Yin Fanghua and Xue'er were looking at everyone present, everyone also saw them.
Wei Changqing, who was sitting at the head, saw Yin Fanghua and Xue'er, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
As the young master of Qingyun Sect, he has seen and enjoyed many beauties before, but women like Yin Fanghua and Xueer who are as beautiful as Yin Fanghua and Xueer are also rare in his life.
Of these two women, one is heroic and youthful, the other is like a water elf, cute in ice and snow, and Chunlan Qiuju is good at winning games. They are all gifts from heaven, but today they are all sent to him. God really treats them He is not thin.
When his heart moved, Wei Changqing laughed and stood up: "These two must be Fairy Yin and Fairy Xue, right? Sure enough, they are peerless and extraordinary. Only then did I realize that meeting is worse than being famous, and meeting is better than being famous!"
"This young master must be the young suzerain of Wei Chang, right?"
Yin Fanghua stopped here for a while, seeing Wei Changqing nodded, and the others did not refute, then smiled lightly, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Sect Master Wei is too famous, and our teachers and sisters are just ordinary female cultivators, so we must be like the Sect Master. Praise."
"You can afford it, you can afford it, please take your seat, the two fairies."
Wei Changqing shook his head in admiration, and after Yin Fanghua and Xueer took their seats, regardless of whether Li Zhaolong was still seated, he said with a hostess attitude: "Since everyone has arrived, the banquet will be formal." let's start."
Everyone couldn't help turning their eyes to Li Zhaolong after hearing the words.
Anyway, Li Zhaolong is the nominal host of this banquet, and Wei Changqing blatantly overwhelmed the guests as soon as he came up, obviously he didn't pay attention to Li Zhaolong, the border general and the commander-in-chief of the army. How would Li Zhaolong feel?
"Young Suzerain is right, so let's start."
Unexpectedly, Li Zhaolong laughed and agreed first, as if he hadn't noticed Wei Changqing's contempt and contempt for him at all.
"Yes, this is the beginning."
Seeing this, the others also agreed and nodded in agreement.
Even Li Zhaolong himself didn't care, so they have nothing to say, just follow Daliu to flatter Master Wei.
"A group of followers."
Yin Fanghua and Xue'er looked at each other with disdain.
After the banquet started, everyone present toasted Wei Changqing and Li Bu one after another, and walked around quickly.
Only Yin Fanghua and Xueer did not toast Wei Changqing and Li Bu.
A look of displeasure flashed in Li Bu's eyes.
Wei Changqing didn't care.
Instead, he laughed, raised his wine glass, and said: "This young master came to Yanyun Pass this time. I thought it was a place where iron and blood fight. I didn't expect to meet people like Fairy Yin and Fairy Xue here. Stunning beauty, this alone is worth the trip, congratulations. Come, everyone, drink this cup to the full!"
