Chapter 350 Congratulatory Gifts from the Four Great Aristocratic Families
"Oh? Let's go then."
Duan Chuan did as he said and immediately left the Giant Sword Peak.
This made Jiang Deng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the third apprentice was still the same impatient person as in the previous life and did not bother to check Jiuyou Hantan again, which prevented her from revealing her secret.
After leaving the Giant Sword Peak, they saw that the heads of the four major families, together with several successors, had been waiting here for a long time.
Jiang Deng met the familiar Nangong Xiangrui, Song Shu, Pei Ranzhi and Xia Houyu again. Their strength had also improved, especially Pei Ranzhi, who had reached the state of transformation.
"Lord Sword Master."
Everyone bowed and saluted.
Duan Chuan nodded coldly, "Have you prepared all the gifts?"
"Of course, Lord Sword Lord's instructions, how dare we forget?"
The head of the Xiahou family said cheerfully: "I heard that the Lord of Qiming Territory has returned from reincarnation. This junior has specially prepared a soul-fixing incense that can stabilize the soul. It can help the Lord of Qiming Territory stabilize his mind and restore the memory of his previous life as soon as possible."
The head of the Song family said flatteringly: "After receiving the news from you, Lord Sword Lord, my subordinates immediately summoned the entire clan, and it took three, seven and twenty-one days to refine a heaven-level sword array, which is enough to cover the entire human palace. I hereby give it to you.
Enlightenment Domain Lord for protection."
The head of the Pei family said with a dull face: "Our Pei family doesn't have anything good, only a low-grade heaven-level spiritual sword."
Among the four family heads present, only the head of the Nangong family, Nangong Xiangrui, remained silent.
She turned to look at the Sword Master, then turned to look at the three family heads beside her.
Um?
Aren't they just going to attend a grand ceremony with the Sword Master? Why do they need to prepare gifts?
Could it be... wasn't it the sword master who gave the gift himself?
"The head of the Nangong family..."
Duan Chuan's voice sounded, and his sharp sword-like eyes fell on Nangong Xiangrui, "Where are the gifts prepared by your Nangong family?"
Nangong Xiangrui couldn't help scratching his head and smiled awkwardly, "Haha, I'm going to send a blessing to the Lord of Qiming Territory."
Duan Chuan's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Are you deliberately planning to embarrass me?"
Nangong Xiangrui: "..."
Ah, she thought that when the Sword Master sent the message to them, he didn't ask them to prepare any gifts.
He just said that he who made them the head of the family must go, why did they suddenly appear and want to send gifts?
"Lord Sword Master, calm down."
Pei Ranzhi couldn't bear to see Nangong Xiangrui being made things difficult for him, so he quickly said: "This junior is the fiancé of the head of the Nangong family, and I am willing to provide this gift for her."
"Pei Ranzhi, I don't care about your junk!"
Nangong Xiangrui said in displeasure.
Since becoming the head of the family, in the past month, she has proposed to the Pei family several times to terminate the engagement, but the Pei family rejected them all.
I heard that the head of the Pei family wanted to agree, but Pei Ranzhi got in the way and refused to break off the engagement with her. As a result, their engagement has been delayed until now.
This made Nangong Xiangrui, who was already dissatisfied with Pei Ranzhi, even more dissatisfied.
"enough!"
Duan Chuan's sword energy surged around his body, "Who allowed you to flirt in front of me?"
Nangong Xiangrui and Pei Ranzhi, who were overwhelmed by the sword energy full of murderous intent, took a few steps back. They covered their chests with surging blood and looked like they were injured by the sword energy.
Feeling the terrifying murderous intent coming from Duan Chuan, Nangong Xiangrui and Pei Ranzhi did not dare to start arguing anymore.
Duan Chuan looked at Nangong Xiangrui impatiently and said, "Tell me, why didn't your Nangong family prepare any gifts? Are you showing contempt for me?"
Jiang Deng: "..."
Why is it still a congratulatory gift?
Don't tell her that the third apprentice notified people from the four major families to go with him just so they could give him gifts!
Who did you learn this from to be so stingy?!
Suppressing the speechlessness in his heart, Jiang Deng coughed lightly and helped the overwhelmed Nangong Xiangrui out: "Jianzun, I think you have misunderstood. The head of the Nangong family has just become the head of the Nangong family. She must be interested in this."
She’s not very familiar with the process yet, so I hope Jianzun can give her a chance.”
"As for...this gift to the Lord of Qiming Territory, I am willing to discuss it with the head of the Nangong family to ensure that I send you a gift that will not bring shame to the Sword Lord!"
Hearing this, Duan Chuan's face looked much better.
He turned his head and looked at Jiang Deng beside him, with a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.
It seems that this new little swordsman he has acquired is not without merit.
"If you can't handle this, I'll deal with you two when I get back!"
"yes."
Duan Chuan looked away and left immediately, "Let's go."
As he took the lead in setting off, other family heads followed suit. Xia Houyu and Bai Sizhu glanced at Jiang Deng with gloating, and also left.
"Burn it."
The voice of the head of the Pei family calling Pei Ranzhi sounded in front.
Pei Ranzhi gritted his teeth and looked at Nangong Xiangrui reluctantly, "Xiao Rui, if you really can't come up with a gift, I still have a low-grade heaven-level spiritual sword in my hand that I can give to you."
"unnecessary."
Nangong Xiangrui looked away with a cold face.
"Xiao Rui..."
Pei Ranzhi sighed lightly, and listened to his father's continued calling, so he could only leave.
At the same place, besides Jiang Deng and Nangong Xiangrui, there was still Song Shu, the young master of the Song family.
After what happened at the Sword Discussion Conference, the relationship between them was not as quarrelsome as between several family heads, but rather harmonious.
Song Shu pondered and said: "Sister Nangong, I heard that your Nangong family is good at controlling beasts. Otherwise, why don't you give me a high-level spiritual beast in its infancy, or a spiritual beast egg?"
Nangong Xiangrui shook his head, "I'm afraid not. After the sword discussion conference, I went home and found that my mother had let go of the infant spirit beasts in the spirit beast garden. The new generation of our Nangong family's descendants no longer learn to control beasts."
Even Song Shu, who had always been calm, couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Isn't your Nangong family's sword cultivator based on controlling beasts? What will you do if you no longer control beasts?"
Nangong Xiangrui smiled bitterly, "Yes, with the secret weapon of beast control, we descendants of the Nangong family have long forgotten that the most important thing in sword cultivation is the sword in our hands."
"It is precisely because we have lost our original intention that the Nangong family ranks at the bottom among the four major aristocratic families, and is even about to fall out of the four major aristocratic families, and..."
Having said this, Nangong Xiangrui turned his head and looked at Jiang Deng, "After what happened to Jiang Deng, mother has figured it out and will no longer use the spirit summoning beads to help us contract spirit beasts, so the descendants of our Nangong family can only
Concentrate on sword practice."
Hearing this, Jiang Deng's mouth twitched.
Ah, don't say that it was the matter between her and A Tu that influenced Huang Jing...
"How about this!"
Jiang Deng raised his lips and smiled, "I am familiar with the Domain Lord of the Qiming Spiritual Domain. I know best what he likes. I will prepare a gift for you!"
Nangong Xiangrui said with a look of disbelief: "Jiang Deng, you are very familiar with the domain master of the Qiming Spiritual Domain? Is it true?"
