Chapter 370 City Lord’s Banquet

Liang Yan really didn't know that Jin Yuye could even forget the banquet at the City Lord's Mansion.

He ran wildly behind this woman. During this period, the monk guards in the XC area did not stop them, because both of them exuded the aura of their foundation-building monks.

In just one cup of tea, Liang Yan and Jin Yuye had arrived in front of a huge mansion.

There are many monks guarding this place, and most of them have cultivation levels between the fourth and fifth levels of Qi Refining. Only the leader has the cultivation level of the seventh level.

When Liang Yan saw so many middle-stage Qi Refining monks willing to serve as gatekeepers, he naturally knew that this was the city lord's palace of Zhiyuan City. He did not dare to neglect. He straightened his clothes first, then took a step forward, bowed his hands to the leading guard and said:

"I'm Liang Yan of the Yungang Sect. This person next to me is Jin Yuye of the Qianzong. I'm here to attend a banquet at the City Lord's Mansion!"

"It turns out to be Senior Liang!" The leading guard laughed hurriedly: "The Lord of Ximen City has already given instructions. There is no need to inform Senior Liang when he comes. Just invite him in. Senior Liang, please come with me."

After saying this, the man bowed respectfully to him, then turned around and led the way.

Liang Yan and Jin Yuye followed this person side by side without saying a word. After the three of them walked through several corridors of the City Lord's Mansion, they saw a very spacious open-air courtyard.

There are many tables and chairs placed around the courtyard, all made of Tianshan mahogany, which looks very wealthy. Looking at the various crystal-clear vessels on the wooden table, which contained a lot of delicacies and spiritual fruit and spiritual wine, we knew that the host of the banquet here was wealthy.

Liang Yan took a cursory glance and saw that many people were already seated at the banquet. It seemed that he was the only two people who were late, and he immediately showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.

He greeted Jin Yuye, and the two of them entered the courtyard hand in hand. Liang Yan first raised his hands to the person in charge and said, "Liang is late, please forgive me, Lord Ximen!"

Sitting on the main seat is a handsome young man, wearing a rich robe. There is an emerald ring on the ring finger of his left hand and the index finger of his right hand. They are full of aura, and you can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary things.

After hearing Liang Yan's confession, the young man immediately stood up from the table, slightly cupped his hands towards Liang Yan and said:

"Fellow Daoist Liang, you're so polite! Ximen Hao heard that a newly promoted foundation-building monk came to the city, and actually challenged fellow Taoist monks from the Fierce Ghost Sect in the ring. He has long been attracted to him and wants to make friends. No. Thinking about what I saw today, he is indeed a young hero!"

Liang Yan took a look at him and saw that although this man appeared to be less than thirty years old. But he already knew that the Lord of Ximen City had been immersed in the foundation building period for sixty or seventy years, and his cultivation level and magical powers were quite extraordinary.

Such a monk who was in the late stage of foundation building, in front of a monk who was new to foundation building like himself, not only did not show any airs, but showed full sincerity, which made Liang Yan a little surprised.

"Haha! The Lord of Ximen City is so ridiculous! How can Liang's trivial tricks fall into the eyes of the City Lord?"

Liang Yan didn't get carried away by Ximen Hao's praise. The people who came here for the banquet were at least monks in the middle stage of foundation construction and above. He didn't want to appear too conspicuous. He immediately scratched his head and forced out a shy smile, looking like a simple young man.

Jin Yuye caught a glimpse of Liang Yan's honest appearance from the side and couldn't help but burst into laughter. However, she immediately took a step forward and saluted Ximen Hao, hiding her embarrassment.

"Okay! Both of you are young talents, please take a seat quickly!" Ximen Hao chuckled and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture.

Liang Yan looked around and saw an empty table in the east corner, so he walked over. Unexpectedly, there was a sound of bells ringing behind him, and it turned out that Jin Yuye also followed.

Liang Yan originally thought that the girl would not follow him anymore under the public gaze here, but he didn't expect that Jin Yuye did not shy away and actually sat down next to him. It seemed that he wanted to eat at the same table.

Liang Yan had nothing to do about this. He was already seated. He couldn't just pick an empty table and change seats, right? However, he was also curious about the eight colleagues who were also Sword Suppressors this time. At this moment, he didn't care about the golden jade leaves, but turned to look at the people in the field.

I saw Lord Ximen sitting on the throne, and there were two people sitting on his left and right sides.

One of them has short hair like Yu Xuanji, a face like a crown of jade, and eyes like bright stars. He is wearing a green Taoist robe with big sleeves fluttering, and he looks quite like an immortal.

The other man was about fifty years old, with white beard and white hair. He was wearing a gray cloth shirt with several large holes in it. He was carrying a sapphire wooden stick behind his back, and a wine gourd hung on the stick. Liang Yan looked at him from a distance and felt that this person did not look like a monk, but more like an old beggar in the secular world.

Although he had such an idea, he would never take it seriously, because these two people had strong auras, and they were both monks in the late stage of foundation building!

Jin Yuye saw the confusion in his eyes and immediately chuckled: "Brother Liang, what are you looking at? You are not from the Wu Kingdom. I'm afraid the monks in the field don't recognize any of you, right?"

Liang Yan was not annoyed when she revealed what he was thinking, and just had a noncommittal smile on his face.

"Let Yuye introduce it to you."

Jinyu Ye smiled sweetly, pointed at the monk in Taoist robes on Ximen Hao's left hand and said: "This person's name is Shi Guanghan, he is the deputy city lord of Zhiyuan City, his cultivation is the same as Ximen Hao, he is in the late stage of foundation building. Although this deputy city lord has just advanced to the next level, his Ice True Technique is very powerful, and he once killed two casual cultivators of the same level by himself."

Liang Yan nodded slightly when he heard this. At this moment, Jin Yuye turned his eyes and pointed at the old man wearing rags and said:

"This old man is even more amazing! Even though he is dressed in rags, he looks like a worldly beggar, but that's because of his skills. This man calls himself the 'North Sea God Beggar', and his real name is Qiao Wanli. He once When he was in the middle stage of foundation building, he killed a monk who was in the late stage of foundation building. He was practicing the "Buddha Capturing Dragon Technique" secretly passed down by his sect. This method requires sharpening one's mind in the secular world, so he knew how to do it. He turned into a beggar and played with the world."

"I see!"

After listening to Jin Yuye's introduction, Liang Yan looked at Qiao Wanli with a thoughtful look, but the old beggar who was drinking and talking with the city lord seemed to be aware of it, and turned his head towards him gently. A smile.

Liang Yan was startled and said to himself: "What a shrewd old man!"

However, although he was shocked in his heart, he was still polite on the surface. He raised the wine glass in his hand and saluted the old man from afar.
