C195 Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road
Shangguan Lianxue was dressed elegantly and harmoniously today. There were a few pieces of historical jewelry that accentuated her noble identity. However, the mature charm of a young girl on her body had the capital to make people fall in love with her. She attracted the attention of everyone present. Even from afar, Tianchen could feel the soul-stirring feeling. Not to mention the fact that Mao Zhengqing was a wolf. He had been drooling for a long time. He was only a step away from rushing over and kissing her.
After a few very ordinary opening remarks, Shangguan Lianxue announced the official start of the gathering and invited everyone to taste the various dishes and fine wine in the hall. She, Nangong Siyu and the other beauties were in the hall welcoming the uncles and family disciples who came to congratulate them. It was still early and the actual cake cutting ceremony would only begin later.
Tianchen's gaze immediately shifted away from Shangguan Lianxue and the others. Only the four dormitory mates and Soong Xuewu were left by his side. Yu Fuchen knew that he could not beat Tianchen, so he did not mind. After suing Tianchen, he went to the hall to communicate with the disciples of various families. Lu Yutine also went to Shangguan Lianxue's side.
He silently calculated the various people in the hall and compared them with the information of some upper class people in Jinghua City. He said to Feng Yugui, who was next to him, "How is it?"
"Not bad, it's very loud. I'm afraid that the purpose of the Shangguan family organizing such a grand gathering is not simple!" Feng Yugui's voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly heard by Soong Xuewu.
Soong Xuewu smiled and said, "Brother Yu Gui, you are worrying too much. Miss Lian Xue is twenty years old this year. According to the rules, this was a grand birthday party. I'm afraid that she has ulterior motives, and it's only true that she seized this opportunity to look for a future husband. Big clans have such a bad habit, and we probably won't be able to avoid it in the future. On the other hand, since young brother Tianchen is the Young Lord of Yu family, why don't we take this opportunity to get closer to Miss Lianxue? Brother Fuchen's suggestion was actually quite good, haha!"
" Sigh. . . Why did brother Xuewu take this matter to heart with me? I'm still young, and I don't want to be caught so quickly. It's still Brother Xuewu who has a heroic bearing. He is also Venerable Yun Meng's disciple. Your family has always been close to the Shangguan family, and it just so happens that you will meet Miss Lian Xue. Isn't it a good thing to have a good marriage? "
The two of them teased each other. Half an hour had passed without them noticing. At this time, the two beauties made way for Tianchen in the middle of the crowd of guests. It was Lu Yutine and Nangong Siyu.
"Sister Siyu and I came to disturb you. Tianchen and Xuewu wouldn't mind, right?"
"No, they wouldn't mind. It is our honor for the beauties to disturb us! Hehe. " The one who spoke was Mao Zhengqing. He had been dissatisfied since he didn't chat with the beautiful lady earlier. Now, not only had Beauty Lu returned, she had also brought back a little beauty. That was truly a blessing for him.
"That's good, then. Hehe, I don't need to introduce sister Siyu, right? Tianchen had talked to Sister Siyu last time. "
"Of course. " Tianchen thought to himself. How could he not know this little beauty? The last time he came out of their beauty club, he was almost buried by hundreds of experts using treasures. It was still fresh in his memory!
Nangong Siyu did not give him face. She looked at Tianchen's body from head to toe and said after a long time, "Yu Family's Young Lord?"
"Hehe, you don't know me anymore?" Tianchen responded with a smile. The Shangguan family and the Nangong family had always been on the same side, and since Shangguan was able to find out about it, the Nangong family naturally knew about it as well. It seemed like there were some people in his family who didn't know what to do, and the news of his return had spread to quite a large area.
Nangong Siyu looked at Tianchen once again as if she didn't believe him, but in her heart, she recalled what her father had told her before. The memory annoyed her, and she shook her head at Tianchen and said, "I never thought that you would be the Young Lord of the Yu family. My father said that our family is in trouble. She shook her head and said, I never thought that you would be the Young Lord of the Yu family. My father said that our family is in trouble. Will Tianchen make things difficult for this little girl? "
These words shocked everyone in the room. Tianchen was also stunned. He didn't know what Nangong Siyu was trying to do, but he knew that during the period when the Yu family was keeping a low profile, the Nangong family had taken in many outer circle powers from the Yu family. However, there was no deep hatred between them. There were no other families that were enemies with the Yu family, like the Four Seas Family of the Liu Family. That kind of blind gluttony, coupled with the presence of the Shangguan family. . . Even if Tianchen was in the top position, he wouldn't attack a family like Shangguan Nangong, who could shake the foundation of the empire.
Although Nangong Siyu was a little lively and active, she shouldn't be a girl who didn't know what was going on. The Nangong family should have told her about similar things. When she said those words to Tianchen in front of everyone, Tianchen was caught off guard.
Tianchen was stunned for a moment, but his expression didn't change at all. He replied, "Miss Nangong, you're joking. I just hope that you won't make things difficult for me. Hehe. "
As Tianchen spoke, he learned from the ancient scholar Ji Zhuang, which attracted Lu Yutine to look at him with a flirtatious smile.
Nangong Siyu also seemed to be affected by Tianchen's appearance as an ancient Confucianist. The original plan in her heart could not continue under such circumstances. She could only hold back her impulsive laughter and said, "I hope Tianchen Young Lord does not forget what he said today! Otherwise, you will definitely make things difficult for the reputation of the weak girl. "
After saying that, she was about to leave when an uninvited guest walked into the lounge where Tianchen was.
The person who came was Liu Sihai, who had a conflict with Tianchen. Liu Sihai had been pursuing Nangong Siyu recently. He understood that Shangguan Lianxue was not someone he could marry with his family. Therefore, he turned his target to Nangong Siyu. As long as he could win her heart. Not only could Liu Sihai have a taste of beauties, but the Liu family could also marry into the Nangong family and increase their power. In addition, the Nangong family and the Shangguan family had always been on the same side, and they were mutually dependent on each other. When the Liu family married into the Nangong family, they also received the support of the Shangguan family. At that time, it would be even easier for them to devour the Yu family's generals who were hiding their strength and biding their time.
As a newly established family, the Liu family was the one who put in the most effort to swallow the food and keep a low profile. Although they had learned some insider information about the Dark World after becoming an upper-class family, they didn't really care about the rumors of the Yu family. He thought that it was because the other families were too sensitive to the pressure of the Yu family for decades. Therefore, after joining forces with some other families, they began to launch a sneak attack on the Yu family. This caused many of the Yu family's properties to be eaten up, and many of the powers in the outer region were also destroyed. If Tianchen were to rise to power, the first person he would need to deal with would be the Liu family. It was truly a narrow road for enemies.
And today, as a direct descendant of Liu Shi and an expert of the younger generation, Liu Sihai was naturally invited to Shangguan Lianxue's birthday party. Liu Sihai was also in the hall communicating with the disciples of many families. Previously, it was not good to disturb Nangong Siyu and the others who were chatting in secret. Now that Nangong Siyu and Shangguan Lianxue came down from upstairs, Liu Sihai naturally had to come up and chat with them.
But before Liu Sihai could find Nangong Siyu, Nangong Siyu and Lu Yutine came to the resting room where Tianchen was. Liu Sihai saw them from afar and followed them over. Who knew that just as he came in, he heard some very ambiguous ending of Nangong Siyu and Tianchen's conversation. Liu Sihai immediately wanted to see who was so powerful that dared to push the wall that he, Liu Sihai, firmly believed in.
"I am the one who dares to bully Sister Siyu. So it is you, kid!" Liu Sihai was the first to see Tianchen. Good fellow. Enemies meet on a narrow road. I let you go last time, but now you are peeing on your Uncle Liu's head?
Of course, the disciples of big families weren't that stupid. Liu Sihai looked around and saw who was in the room. Of course, he knew Soong Xuewu. His brother was a disciple of the same master as Soong Xuewu, and the Liu family had invited him to a family banquet. He hoped that Soong Xuewu would take care of his junior brother, Liu Sihai's younger brother, Liu Wuzhou, in the sect.
Although Soong Xuewu's family belonged to the Shangguan family, they were relatively powerful. They were about to fall out of the ranks of the upper-class families, and the Ximen family wanted to pull them down. The Ximen family filled in the empty space after the Song family was demoted. Although Soong Xuewu had become the eldest in-name disciple of Reverend Yun Meng, it had saved some of the family's reputation. However, Liu Sihai's younger brother was also an in-name disciple of Reverend Yun Meng. Therefore, Liu Sihai was not afraid of offending Soong Xuewu.
Seeing that there were no eyewitnesses in the room, Liu Sihai said, "Sister Siyu, did this kid bully you? Do you want me to help you teach this kid a lesson?"
Then Liu Sihai turned around and said to the smiling Tianchen, "Kid, don't you see what this place is? It was already a blessing that Miss Lian Xue invited you here. You actually bullied Siyu's sister. If you know what's good for you, you should leave immediately. Otherwise, don't say that I, Liu Sihai, am going to invite you out on behalf of Miss Lian Xue. "
Liu Sihai wasn't very clear about the matters in Ocean Dedicated Spirit Vein. The main thing was that his younger brother, Liu Wuzhou, had already gone there. Of course, the Liu family knew some of the risks involved. It was already considered not bad for them to go there and meet a disciple of their family. Therefore, Liu Sihai didn't know about Tianchen's deeds in Ocean Dedicated Spirit Vein. His impression of Tianchen was still the same as half a month ago when the incident in Ocean Dedicated Spirit Vein didn't happen. Although Tianchen's strength was considered pretty good at that time, he was merely a young expert with a higher cultivation base than Liu Sihai. It was not enough to pose any threat to him. As for the matter of Shangguan Lianxue inviting Tianchen. . . Those who had the first impression that morning was a young expert and an alumnus were invited because they thought that morning was an exception.
Tianchen wanted to laugh in his heart. It seemed like his story hadn't spread too much. At least this second generation ancestor didn't know what happened after that, so he said, "Young brother, I think it's a misunderstanding. It's better to let Miss Nangong say it herself. "
Nangong Siyu was just about to reply when a soft and charming voice came from the side, "Siyu, what is going on here? Why is it so tense?"
