In the Nangong manor, Li Xingyun and the other two walked forward in a winding manner. It was only four hours later that they arrived at the guest room!
This was also the reason why Nangong Xiao Dai wanted the two of them to walk around for a bit. Otherwise, she wouldn't have left for so long!
The Nangong family was truly worthy of being called an assassin family. On the way here, Li Xingyun saw only secret techniques and the cultivation of secret techniques!
What he found the most inconceivable was a secret technique of the water element!
This secret technique allowed one to silently advance underwater, to the point where any fish that passed by would not notice it at all!
It could be said that this secret art had its own merits when compared to the Nine Lines of Heaven's Shadow!
After all, the Heavenly Shadow Nine Paths couldn't be broken through in the Water Domain.
As he watched the voices splash into the water and then disappear completely, he actually felt like he wanted to learn this technique too!
Thinking of this, he secretly made a decision!
Nangong Xiaodan was exceptionally happy today. It was unknown what she was thinking, but she was completely oblivious to the fact that Li Xingyun's wolf claws had already reached her house!
The Eastern Courtyard symbolized the Purple Qi from the East, which was also a form of respect for the guests!
This was their destination. The entire East District was not as lively and quiet as they had imagined!
This point caused him to be puzzled. Logically speaking, a banquet from such a large family should be bustling with noise and excitement, but there seemed to be some discrepancies in his imagination!
Seeming to be able to see through his doubts, Nangong Xiaodai smiled tenderly, "Idiot, it's my father who called you here today to eat some ordinary food. Are you disappointed that there aren't any delicacies?"
He didn't care much about being teased by Nangong Xiaodai, he just smiled noncommittally and walked inside!
It was only after he entered the East District that he realized there were only three people in the entire courtyard.
He recognised Nan Gong Wen Tian, and there was also a middle aged man and a beautiful woman dressed in palace clothing!
The middle aged man was half a head taller than Nan Gong Wen Tian, his short hair that was an inch long made him look even more refined and spirited!
His upright posture, coupled with his majestic face, gave off a feeling of superiority!
In addition, the beautiful woman was also smiling as she looked at them with benevolence!
Speaking of which, the beautiful woman gave people a warm feeling!
She was most likely Nangong Xiaodan's mother. The two of them looked quite similar, both belonging to the same type of family.
However, Nangong Xiaode had a more pure and innocent look on her face, while the woman dressed in the imperial costume had a more mature and charming look on her face.
Seeing this, Li Xingyun and the other two quickly bowed!
"Greetings, uncle and aunt!"
Of course, Wu'er didn't know which one of them was Nangong Xiaodan's parents. She had only said that out loud to Li Xingyun!
As for Nan Gong Wen Tian, Li Xingyun did not call him that because he did not like him, but because he was too familiar with him.
Nan Gong Wen Tian did not care about it at all, and from the start, the few of them did not have any expression on their faces!
Li Xingyun also knew this guy's personality, so he naturally didn't care too much about it.
Upon hearing the way he addressed her, Nangong Xiaodai couldn't help smiling at him. The way she looked at him became much more pleasing to the eye!
However, her happiness hadn't even lasted for three breaths of time when she heard Nangong Haoyue wave his hand and say, "Xingyun, please allow me to call you that first!"
"I don't dare to!"
Hearing that, Li Xingyun hurriedly returned the greeting!
Nangong Haoyue nodded and immediately said, "Your senior brother and I, along with little Di's mother, Hua Xi and General Ying, we are also close friends, so if you don't mind, then call us big brother and sister-in-law!"
"Daddy!"
Hearing this, how could Nangong Xiaodai agree? She was afraid that Li Xingyun would agree, so she grumbled in dissatisfaction!
As he spoke, he didn't forget to viciously glare at Li Xingyun as a form of threat!
However, Li Xingyun had automatically become immune to her threats!
Nangong Haoyue didn't pay attention to his unhappiness as he smiled at Li Xingyun!
At this moment, Hua Xi stood up and grabbed Wu'er's hand. He greeted her warmly as he did so, "Come, come. Come, sit down. Why are you standing there like a fool?"
Hua Xi's temperament was somewhat similar to Wu'er's, so their conversation was naturally more intimate!
Seeing this, he didn't put on any airs and directly bowed in return, "Eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, third brother, this child, Xingyun, and his lover, Dancing'er, have disturbed you!"
"Oh?"
After hearing what Li Xingyun had said, Nangong Haoyue couldn't help but be a little suspicious. He completely ignored Xiao Dai's fierce expression and asked, "This lady is your ?" Dao-companion?
As he spoke, he seemed to ask with uncertainty.
Li Xingyun did not hide anything as he said generously, "That's right!"
Obviously, he'd already treated Wu'er as his wife, so much so that he didn't even have to worry about his fianc?e!
Even though his memories of Wu'er were only limited to a dreamscape, this didn't stop Wu'er from standing in his heart!
Seeing him freely admitting it, Wu'er couldn't help but shyly lower her head!
It was obvious that she was extremely happy that Li Xingyun had acknowledged her. A sweet feeling welled up within her!
"Haha!" "Alright!"
Nangong Haoyue suddenly laughed and repeatedly praised him!
He didn't know what Li Xingyun was talking about, but Li Xingyun had a different understanding of it!
In fact, wasn't Nangong Haoyue afraid of leaving some sparks when Nangong Xiaodai was with him?
Now, with his understanding of Nangong Xiaodai, he knew that she would never share a man with anyone. This was her pride!
How could her parents not know the thoughts of Nangong Xiaodai when they said that a good son could not be a father and a good daughter could not be a mother?
He didn't care about this at all. He didn't have the mood to be sentimental about others anyway, and right now, he was too busy to do anything!
The feast of the Xiao family had officially begun!
This banquet was indeed very ordinary. There were only a few people, and there weren't even servants present. However, it was much easier to get close to them!
Nan Gong Wen Tian, who had been pretending to be serious, did not wait for two cups of wine before he started chatting with Li Xingyun with his arms around his shoulders!
Only Nangong Xiaodan sat there gloomily. It was unknown what she was planning in her heart.
Hua Xi pulled Wu'er and talked about some trivial matters. It was as if Little Di wasn't her daughter, but Wu'er!
After chatting for a while and drinking wine, the group soon started getting close to each other!
Just as Nangong Haoyue had said, Nangong Haoyue, Hua Xi, and General Ying had been training together in the past. However, Nangong Haoyue had gotten close to the stage and married Hua Xi first. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to determine what would happen!
These secrets that were not a secret also made their relationship more harmonious!
He knew that it would not be easy for him to have a backer in the Ancient Wastelands. The Nangong family might not be able to help him in big matters, but there were some matters that would be easy for them to solve with their help.
