Chapter 2261: Hundred Flowers Banquet
"The ancient Dan lineage found an excuse, saying that the spiritual medicines they planted in the spiritual land have not matured yet, and they need to wait until they are mature and picked before handing over the spiritual land to us."
Gu Yaoyou was a little angry when he said this, "Everyone knows that it takes a long time for spiritual medicines to mature. Are they making this excuse to delay handing over the spiritual land for a hundred or eighty years?"
"Not only that, but the ancient Dan lineage also plans to hold a Hundred Flowers Banquet in the spiritual land, saying that they want to invite all the major alchemy forces in the God-forsaken Land to appreciate the various exotic flowers and herbs planted in the spiritual land where the ancient Dan lineage is located."
Gu Yaoyou said this, and Su Chen understood.
It is well known that the ancient Dan lineage lost to the ancient medicine lineage in the alchemy competition and had to hand over half of the spiritual land. But under this circumstance, the ancient Dan lineage still held a Hundred Flowers Banquet in the spiritual land with great fanfare, which was simply a slap in the face of the ancient medicine lineage.
"Which forces were invited to this Hundred Flowers Banquet?"
Su Chen asked casually.
"Big and small alchemy forces have invited 20 to 30. Including our Gu Yao lineage, they also sent invitations."
Gu Yaoyou frowned when he said this, "I don't want to attend, but Uncle Qi and the others insisted that I go. They said that since the other party sent an invitation, if our Gu Yao lineage doesn't go, it will show that we are cowardly."
"Do you need me to go with you?"
Su Chen smiled faintly. He had already expected the purpose of Gu Yaoyou's visit. Since he was going to the Hundred Flowers Banquet, someone must support the scene.
Because it is obvious that the invitation of the Gu Dan lineage to the Hundred Flowers Banquet was not well-intentioned. If the Gu Yao lineage didn't go, people would talk about it behind their backs. But if they go, it's the Gu Dan lineage's home court. Su Chen doesn't believe that the Gu Dan lineage didn't arrange something to make the Gu Yao lineage lose face.
Su Chen doesn't mind that the Gu Yao lineage came to him again. First, Gu Yaomin is the first person Su Chen came into contact with in the God-Forsaken Land, and the person he trusts the most. Su Chen's grand plan also needs Gu Yaomin to cooperate to complete.
Second, Su Chen was not too disgusted with Gu Yaoyou, the little girl.
Third, and most importantly, the Gu Yao clan would definitely not let Su Chen work in vain if they came to Su Chen for help.
So, although Su Chen had no interest in the Hundred Flowers Banquet itself, it was not a bad idea to go there.
"Mr. Su, are you willing to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet?"
Gu Yao was a little unbelievable when he heard Su Chen's words again. Two blushes flew on his cheeks, and he looked very happy.
"Even if it's for the sake of Senior Gu Yaomin, I will go."
Su Chen nodded affirmatively, and then asked Gu Yaoyou about the time and place of the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
Gu Yaoyou got up and left happily. In fact, she came today just to try her luck. She didn't expect Su Chen to really agree to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
As for why she came alone, it was naturally because she was Su Chen's nominal fiancée, and it was not easy to be blocked when entering the Martial Temple.
After Gu Yaoyou left, Su Chen made some preparations.
On the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, he went directly to the venue of the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
The venue of the Hundred Flowers Banquet was a manor in that spiritual land. This manor was built by the ancient Dan lineage, named Hongrong Manor, and it was very magnificent.
Just from the scale of Hongrong Manor, we can see the heritage of the ancient Dan lineage. Although it lost in the Dan Dou Conference before, the heritage of the ancient Dan lineage is not so easy to hit.
At this moment, the entire Hongrong Manor was decorated with lights and colors, and it was very lively and arranged very grandly. It looked like a festival was going to be held, not a simple banquet.
The ancient medicine clan was attending the banquet today, including Gu Yaosi and several other elders of the ancient medicine lineage. As for the younger generation, it was Gu Yaoyou and Gu Yaotong.
When Su Chen came to the gate of Hongrong Manor, this group of people were already waiting for Su Chen at the gate.
"Mr. Su, please come here today."
Gu Yaosi saw Su Chen and bowed hurriedly.
"Why are you being polite, Elder Yao Si?"
Su Chen smiled. Today, he was only wearing a simple green robe, which made him look very low-key.
Gu Yao Si handed the invitation to the guard at the gate. Without much effort, the group entered the manor directly.
The manor was still decorated with lights and colors. It can be seen that the Gu Dan lineage attaches great importance to pomp and circumstance.
And the pomp and circumstance of the Hundred Flowers Banquet this time seemed to have a vague intention of deliberately showing off in front of the Gu Yao lineage.
Su Chen and his group walked in the garden. There were groups of people from other forces around them. When they saw Su Chen and his group, they all showed some strange expressions.
Obviously, they did not expect that in such an occasion, the Gu Yao lineage, which had always been at odds with the Gu Dan lineage, would come to the banquet.
"The people of the Ancient Medicine Clan are here."
"There's no other way. If they don't come, they'll probably be laughed at as cowards, right?"
"Today's Hundred Flowers Banquet is obviously a Hongmen Banquet for them. The Ancient Pill Clan will definitely find a way to make them lose."
"The Ancient Pill Clan lost half of their spiritual land in the Pill Battle. I'm sure they're also holding back their anger.
