Chapter 413 Feast
The Ascension Conference ended here, but the feast of Yunhai City has just begun.
After every Ascension Conference of Wuliang Haiya, there is a carnival for all forces.
Countless forces came to Yunhai City, on the one hand to send their own talented disciples to the immortal gate, and on the other hand because only Wuliang Haiya, one of the five major immortal gates, can gather so many forces and make them act according to their own will.
Before the Ascension Conference began, the sword of the great elder of Wuliang Haiya was not to show the strong thigh of the immortal gate.
Communication, communication, and exchange are the themes of Yunhai City after the Ascension Conference.
Forces from all directions exchanged friendly in Yunhai City, where fighting was strictly prohibited. Countless alliances emerged during this period, and countless alliances broke up because of the lack of interest.
Auctions were held one after another, as if these forces had endless treasures and immortals in their hands, throwing them out without money.
In the east area of Yunhai City, in a magnificent building, in a huge auction hall, Lu Ya sat alone in a box, watching the natural materials and treasures coming and going like water below, and sighed in his heart.
"It's good to be rich!"
Here Lu Ya is not talking about the pitiful family assets in his storage ring. His family assets were consumed a lot in the Demon Abyss, and then Fang Shuyun's attack on the Nascent Soul almost consumed his spiritual stones.
Originally, with their Lu family's family assets, such a feast had basically nothing to do with them.
In the past few days, whether it was Lu Dingbo or Lu Feng and others, their eyes were red.
It's a pity that because of the lack of family assets, they can only sigh at the sight of the treasure mountain.
Fortunately, Jiang sent a thank-you gift that made Lu Ya excited.
Originally, Lu Ya repeatedly declined, but at the insistence of Jiang Ci, the chief steward of the Jiang Mansion, Lu Ya finally accepted the thank-you gift.
If he didn't accept it, it would be a rejection of the Jiang Mansion's good intentions.
Lu Ya also understood that this amount of spiritual stones was nominally a thank you gift, but in fact it was more of Jiang's attitude, an attitude of being willing to make friends with him, a young Jindan cultivator.
Later, Lu Ya visited the Jiang Mansion again, and also specially visited Old Master Jiang, whom he had met once in Chenhua Domain, and received another gift from Old Master Jiang.
Of course, Jiang's doing all this does not mean that Jiang will do this to any young genius cultivator. As a force in the immortal sect, Jiang is a behemoth in itself, and they do not need to do so.
However, for Lu Ya, a genius cultivator who is valued by Jiang Jiuye and Old Master Jiang and is not inferior to their own sword immortal, it is still worth doing all this.
In this way, Lu Ya and others, who are no longer shy in their pockets, joined the feast.
Today is the fifth auction that Lu Ya has participated in. After five auctions, Lu Ya has bought a lot of good things.
For example, natural materials and treasures used for building the foundation of the tunnel, one-time powerful talismans used to enhance the family heritage, and various precious elixirs.
Unfortunately, Lu Ya did not find anything that was particularly suitable for him, but he did bid for some treasures that assisted in cultivation, which could slightly speed up his cultivation.
After the auction, Lu Ya left secretly.
Mr. Jiang Jiu had an appointment tonight, and it was already late, so he couldn't go late.
A moment later, in Mr. Jiang Jiu's courtyard, Lu Ya and Mr. Jiang Jiu sat opposite each other. On the stone table in front of them, a fat purple clay teapot was being roasted by the flame, and the slender spout was slowly emitting steam.
When the water in the teapot was completely boiling, Lu Ya reached out and picked up the purple clay teapot and poured tea for Mr. Jiang Jiu.
Lu Ya put down the purple clay teapot, and Mr. Jiang Jiu picked up the teacup, blew away the tea leaves floating on the tea water, and then drank it in one gulp.
Satisfied, Jiang Jiuye put down the teacup and savored it for a moment. He opened his eyes and looked at Lu Ya, with a smile on his lips, and said: "Lu Ya, do you know why I invited you to come this time?"
This short sentence made Lu Ya pause his hand in the air. He thought about it carefully in his mind, and finally said bluntly: "Lu Ya doesn't know."
Jiang Jiuye smiled proudly, then leaned forward, and his two sword-like eyebrows were full of a sense of playfulness in Lu Ya's eyes.
"I haven't seen a few old friends for many years. You will go with me to meet these old friends later."
Meet old friends?
Lu Ya's head was full of question marks, and he didn't know what medicine Jiang Jiuye was selling in his gourd.
But since he is Jiang Jiuye's old friend, I think his cultivation will not be low, and it would be a good thing to ask for advice at that time.
However, Lu Ya looked at Jiang Jiuye's irrepressible smile, and still had a sense of familiarity and strangeness.
Just like. Just like.
Lu Ya frowned and thought hard for a while, and finally remembered where he had seen a similar expression.
His mother had this expression back then, and coaxed him to attend a gathering of old friends. After he went there, Lu Ya realized that it was not a gathering of old friends at all, but a long-planned blind date.
So, with this expression from Master Jiang Jiu, is he also trying to drag me to a blind date?
But, the Jiang family also has Jiang Daoying, the peerless swordsman. Logically, the other party should take the good things first, and how could they give them directly to him, an "outsider".
Lu Ya shook his head, threw away the speculation in his mind, and then looked at Master Jiang Jiu and nodded: "The elder invited me, Lu Ya dare not refuse."
"Okay, relax. My old friends are all very easy to talk to. If you have any questions, you can ask them directly." When Master Jiang Jiu saw Lu Ya agreed, his sword-like eyebrows relaxed, and he was obviously in a good mood.
Seeing this, Lu Ya wanted to change his words, but Master Jiang Jiu did not give him any time to react, and immediately took him out of the courtyard.
Lu Ya's idea of changing his words died before he could even implement it.
The two of them left the Jiang Mansion and soon disappeared from the sight of ordinary cultivators.
Lu Ya looked at the deserted teahouse in front of them and was a little confused.
Logically speaking, with Master Jiang Jiu's status, he would not choose such a seemingly ordinary place to meet his old friends.
Even the most luxurious place in the entire Yunhai City is just a matter of words for the Jiang Mansion.
However, Lu Ya's doubts did not last long, and Master Jiang Jiu took Lu Ya and walked into the seemingly deserted teahouse.
As soon as he stepped in, Lu Ya's eyes changed slightly.
When he just stepped through the gate, Lu Ya clearly felt the power of the formation. With the strength of the formation, cultivators below the Jindan level would have no power to resist and would be suppressed and kneel on the ground.
However, under the aura of Master Jiang Jiu, the fluctuations of the formation sensed by Lu Ya disappeared without a trace in the next moment.
Pop~
A bubble bursting sound was heard, and Lu Ya and Master Jiang Jiu finally entered the building of the teahouse. The scene in front of them made Lu Ya's eyes change slightly.
Behind the teahouse, the first thing that came into view was a huge, translucent screen, and a clear and winding stream extending from the screen to the back.
On both sides of the stream, various rare and precious spiritual plants that are rarely seen in the outside world live on the banks of the stream.
Going further back, Lu Ya faintly heard the sound of stringed instruments, but the sound was extremely weak, so weak that Lu Ya really couldn't tell whether it was real or an illusion.
However, as the two of them gradually moved forward along the stream, the faint sound of stringed instruments became much more obvious.
Someone is playing?
Should it be a singing girl?
This teahouse is not simple, Lu Ya realized when he approached.
But soon, Lu Ya's guess was answered.
As the two of them moved forward, a small lake appeared in their eyes. A pleasure boat was quietly rippling with the waves. The clear sound of stringed instruments came from the brightly lit pleasure boat.
"It's a different world!"
After seeing the lake and the pleasure boat, Lu Ya couldn't help but complain in his heart.
This style of painting, no matter how you look at it, it looks like those seemingly inconspicuous places that specialize in serving rich people in the previous life.
However, Lu Ya didn't say anything, just followed Jiang Jiuye onto the pleasure boat.
As soon as he got on the pleasure boat, Lu Ya saw that there were already several people sitting in the pleasure boat.
Among them, five great monks with profound cultivation should be the old friends mentioned by Master Jiang Jiu, and beside them, there is a young man, three women and two men, all of whom are at the Jindan level.
The sound of stringed instruments just now was played by a young and beautiful fairy.
Not a singing girl?
Lu Ya thought subconsciously.
Which service place uses Jindan monks as singing girls?
"Hahaha, Jiang Hua, you are a little late."
Just as Lu Ya was thinking, one of the men with peach blossom face and unparalleled style looked at Jiang Hua and joked.
"Drink your wine, I am not late at all, it is you who came early." Jiang Hua said back casually, without the attitude of a great monk of the spirit transformation.
"Is this the most popular sword fairy in your Jiang family recently and is known to be invincible in the same realm?" After being retorted by Jiang Hua, the man did not react at all, but stared at Lu Ya with interest and said.
As he spoke, the others also turned their attention to Lu Ya, and the three female Jindan cultivators looked at Lu Ya carefully.
That look made Lu Ya's scalp numb.
Master Jiang Jiu did not answer in a hurry, but took Lu Ya to find the last empty seat at the table and sat down. After sitting down, he patted Lu Ya on the shoulder and said, "Let me introduce myself to you seniors."
Lu Ya immediately stood up, his tall body as straight as a pine tree, and he saluted the five seniors present one by one, saying, "I am Lu Ya, from Songhai Lu, a good friend of Jiang Daoying, and Grandpa Jiu is my elder. Lu Ya is invited here."
Lu Ya? Songhai Lu?
After hearing Lu Ya's self-introduction, Jiang Hua's five friends did not change at all.
On the contrary, the Jindan juniors they brought, two men and three women, did not change at all on the surface, but they all searched quickly in their hearts.
After no result, a trace of displeasure suddenly rose in their hearts.
Today's gathering was called a meeting of old friends, but in fact, everyone understood that it was a matchmaking matchmaking meeting.
As members of their respective forces, and they were extremely outstanding, they would not refuse this form of marriage, and they were even ready to choose a Taoist partner today.
But now, the senior of the Jiang Mansion, who had reached the state of transformation, actually brought an outsider who was obviously not a direct descendant of the Jiang Mansion.
In their view, this behavior was tantamount to an insult, not only to them, but also to the forces behind them.
After Lu Ya finished his self-introduction, the atmosphere in the painting boat fell into a brief silence.
After a few breaths, a beautiful middle-aged woman in emerald green palace dress looked at Lu Ya and smiled: "Friend Lu can be good friends with Jiang Jianxian, he must be a dragon and phoenix among men. I wonder if what I said is correct, Jiang Hua?"
Faced with the question of the beautiful woman in palace dress, Jiang Jiuye nodded very firmly and replied: "Of course, otherwise I would not bring my junior here."
After this, the atmosphere at the scene eased a little.
However, even so, there was still a skinny old man who said: "Jiang Xiaojian, I am from Songhai, but I have never heard of the Songhai Lu family."
The implication is that the power behind Lu Ya is not strong and cannot meet the standards of the people present.
Facing the gazes of the five incarnation gods and five golden elixirs, Lu Ya didn't care at all. He ate the cakes and spiritual fruits on the table calmly, and looked at Jiang Jiuye from time to time, as if he was watching a show.
Dear all, remember to vote!
