"Haha, Brother Zhang! What a coincidence, I didn't expect you to come too!"
"Haha, you still have to give face to the young city lord. Besides, this group of heroes has gathered so many young talents. If you don't come to see the world, you will regret it for the rest of your life."
"Why don't you see those guys at the top? Is it because you think too highly of yourself and don't want to communicate with us?"
"Brother, be careful what you say. Be careful that walls have ears. Those are people with outstanding talents. It is inevitable to be arrogant. There is a reason for others not to come. Why should we discuss behind our backs? This is the belly of a villain."
"..."
In this spacious hall, there are a total of more than a dozen tables. Each table seats seven or eight people.
Some of these people know each other well, and of course some of them are sharing a table together temporarily.
But no matter what, they were still polite to each other and chatting excitedly.
The content of the chat was basically about the Tianjian Sect Assessment Conference.
Of course, there are also a few alternative ones. They don't talk about the assessment meeting, nor do they talk about a certain person. They just discuss issues related to spiritual practice with each other.
Although the content of several people's conversations was somewhat inconsistent with the current format, it was still acceptable.
The most outrageous thing was that there was a table in the corner, where extremely wretched-looking men gathered together. They were chatting in low voices, and from time to time their eyes would be cast on a certain woman in the room, and then they would burst into low and dissolute laughter.
The four of them, Xiao Fei, stepped into the living room. However, no one in the room stopped talking because of the arrival of the four of them. They didn't even look back.
Of course, not everyone failed to notice the four people. As the leader of this gathering, the Young City Lord Qi Lang was naturally the first to notice the four people.
Then there are Wang Hong and Luo Haoran. Next to them is a young man wearing a white robe who is similar in age to them.
This young man is none other than Zhenggang, the eldest son of one of the three major families in Tianshui City.
As his name suggests, Zhenggang is upright and decisive. However, because of his mediocre training talent, the head of the Zheng family stayed in Tianshui City to train him to become the next head of the family.
The same is true for Wang Hong and Luo Haoran. They are both eldest young masters, but they are all trained to train the next head of the family because of insufficient talent. They only hope that the three of them can take charge of the business of the head of the family in the future.
It's strange to say that the three families are originally competing with each other and have been passed down from generation to generation.
But after it was passed down to their generation, the three of them not only did not exclude each other, but also made friends.
Naturally, their family would not allow such a thing to happen, but no matter how they warned and blocked them, the three of them ignored it. Moreover, they even formed an alliance because of their long-term struggle with the family.
As time passed, the three of them formed a deep friendship.
When their respective families saw that the matter could not be done, they just let it go. In the end, they could only turn a blind eye and let the three of them do whatever they wanted.
When Zheng Gang saw Wang Hong and both of them looking towards the door, he couldn't help but feel doubtful and looked up as well.
When he saw the people coming, Zheng Gang asked doubtfully, "Are these people the same people you mentioned?"
Wang and Hong naturally understood the meaning of Zhenggang's words, and then introduced to Zhenggang in a low voice, "The one at the front is the third prince Huang Wuji, and the one on his left is Cheng Xing, the second son of the Imperial Prefecture. As for the one on the right,
It’s that crazy Xiao Xiao Fei. That fat guy is Li Wenming, but those who are familiar with him call him Fatty.”
"Oh~"
Zheng Gang said oh and murmured in a low voice, "I don't see anything special about it. He's just like us, with one head and two arms..."
"Brother Zheng, what you said is wrong. As the saying goes, people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured. Haven't you heard the rumors about Tianshui City during this time?"
"That's right," Luo Haoran couldn't help but interjected, "These people are all recommendation holders. Do you think it is so easy to get the recommendation order from Tianjian Sect? If nothing else, look at what Crazy Xiao is doing
You will know by your performance in the assessment. Although the other three may not be as evil as him, they are definitely talented!"
"Maybe!" Zhenggang curled his lips, looking unconcerned.
While the three of them were talking, Xiao Fei and four others had already entered the hall.
There were no less than a hundred people in this hall, and at a glance, apart from the examiners, there were also some disciples of the Tianjian Sect. Among them, Xiao Fei saw a disciple of the Tianjian Sect whom he had just met.
This person was Jiang Liuhai, who had helped Xiao Fei rescue Ergouzi. Seeing this person, Xiao Fei couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. After all, he had done him a favor. But he actually didn't express anything, and he felt a little ashamed just thinking about it.
In addition, Xiao Fei also saw a few acquaintances in the crowd, such as Gu Le, whom he had met several times during the first round of assessment, Zheng Yiming and others.
But what surprised Xiao Fei was that he didn't find Li Hao and Xie Chengxian in the crowd.
After thinking about it, I couldn't help but mutter in my heart, "It seems that not everyone is here to attend this so-called gathering of heroes. I should have known I wouldn't be here either."
I was thinking in my heart, but a smile appeared on my face, and at the same time, I couldn't help but look at every woman in the field.
It's not that he was mean, he just wanted to find out if Nangong Qingyao was here. After all, he said he wanted to help people heal.
Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, Nangong Qingyao was not found.
"It seems like she's not here either. She's probably taking advantage of the rest of the day to stay at home and recover from her injuries."
Xiao Fei was a little disappointed, and the excited smile on his face gradually faded.
Just at this moment, a young man wearing brocade clothes walked towards the four of them.
The young man's face was filled with an excited smile. He didn't wait for Xiao Fei and others to speak in front of several people. The other party first cupped his hands towards Xiao Fei and others and said politely, "Haha, I didn't expect that the third prince is here too.
It’s really an honor for me.”
"Brother Qi, you're welcome. Now that I'm not in the palace, brother Qi doesn't need to be too reserved. You should call me by my name, lest outsiders hear this and think that I am using my status as a prince to dominate others. Haha..."
Huang Wuji also bowed his hand politely, with a smile on his face.
In fact, the two of them knew each other. After all, Huang Wuji had lived in the city lord's mansion for a while.
Under the same roof, it was impossible not to know each other. Moreover, the day Huang Wuji first arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord had specially set up a reception banquet for Huang Wuji.
"Haha, then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Brother Huang."
He said a few polite words to Huang Wuji, then turned to look at Xiao Fei and the others, and said politely again, "I guess the three of them are Brother Xiao, Brother Cheng and Brother Li, right? Haha, there are so many great people here.
It’s a shame to welcome you from afar, but I still hope you won’t be surprised.”
They were not surprised at all that the person in front of them knew the names of the three of them. After all, they were all holders of recommendation orders. Although their names were not as loud as Xiao Fei's, as holders of recommendation orders, their names were natural
It's not low either, and there are not a few people paying attention to them.
And judging from the way this person greeted Huang Wuji, it was obvious that this person was the leader of this gathering of heroes, Young City Master Qi Lang.
At that moment, the three of them also bowed politely and bowed their hands to Qi Langgong.
"Haha, I interrupted you so rashly and came uninvited. I hope Brother Qi can forgive me."
"Hey, Brother Xiao, what are you talking about? If you can give me the honor to attend the gathering of heroes organized by me, that is to give me some face. I am too late to be happy, so how can I dare to blame you?"
"Come, come, please, let's sit down and talk."
Before Xiao Fei and others could continue to be polite, Qi Lang quickly made an invitation gesture and invited several people to the table.
Xiao Fei and the others were not polite and followed Qi Lang directly to a table where three people were already sitting.
Seeing three people sitting here, Xiao Fei and the other four were slightly startled, but they didn't say anything. They sat down without any ceremony.
After all, they came specifically to attend the party. If they were too polite, it would look pretentious.
As soon as he sat down, Fatty Li said carelessly to Qi Lang beside him, "Brother Qi, people are almost here. Do you think the food can be served?"
He, Fatty Li, only has three in his life. Since Brother Li is hungry, let’s serve the food and let’s chat while we eat.”
After saying that, Qi Lang waved to the guard standing in the corner. When the guard saw his young master's gesture, he immediately understood and quickly turned around and ran towards the kitchen.
…
While Fatty Li was chatting happily with Qi Lang, Xiao Fei and the others were looking at the three people opposite them.
Especially Xiao Fei, when he saw the other side
Two of the three people sitting there were visibly stunned after they turned out to be acquaintances.
But before he could speak, a person opposite him smiled at him, "Haha, what a coincidence, Brother Xiao, we meet again."
"hehe…"
Xiao Fei showed an awkward but polite smile to the two of them.
At the same time, he was complaining in his heart. He was not surprised that the other party recognized him. After all, he was now considered a celebrity.
But I didn't know the other person. Although I met him once, I was busy running away that day and didn't even have time to find out the other person's name. Now that I meet again, it's not to mention how embarrassing it is.
Huang Wuji and Cheng Xing, who were standing next to them, saw that they seemed to be familiar with Xiao Fei, and both showed surprised expressions.
"Brother Xiao, do you know each other?"
Huang Wuji asked quietly from the side.
Although he was very quiet, there were all people of cultivation present, so how could he not hear him.
So before Xiao Fei could say anything, the man opposite opened his mouth and explained for Xiao Fei, "No, we just met once. Brother Xiao left in a hurry that day and didn't know our names."
After speaking, he pointed to the other two young men beside him and introduced, "This is Zhenggang, this is Luo Haoran. I'm Wang Hong."
After Wang Hong finished his introduction, Huang Wuji clasped his fists as usual and said with a smile, "Haha, it turns out they are the three young patriarchs."
"It made the Third Prince laugh."
The three people also stood up and returned the greeting. Although they could cover the sky with one hand in Tianshui City, they still did not dare to be too presumptuous when facing Huang Wuji. After all, Huang Wuji was the prince. The entire Fire Cloud Kingdom belonged to his family.
Not happy. With a wave of his hand, the clan will be wiped out in minutes.
Huang Wuji waved his hands indifferently, "Don't worry about it, you three. Although I am a prince, I don't care about etiquette. Moreover, this is not a palace. We can just get along as equals."
The three of them praised Huang Wuji's easy-going attitude, but they were not too presumptuous. When talking to Huang Wuji, they still maintained a respectful attitude.
Xiao Fei looked on amused. He was not a law-abiding master. He vaguely remembered that when he and Huang Wuji met for the first time, he put a knife on Huang Wuji's neck.
Now that I think about it, if I had really done anything to this guy back then, the grass on his grave would have been so high by now.
Although he thought so in his heart, he still had no feelings about the identity of Prince Huang Wuji.
On the contrary, in his mind, Huang Wuji was just like him. He was an unlearned guy, just a little better than a street gangster, but not a tall person either.
If Huang Wuji knew Xiao Fei's evaluation of him, he would probably be depressed for several days.
While everyone was talking, servants came in one after another carrying dishes.
The entire hall was suddenly filled with fragrance, and even Xiao Fei couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Not to mention the greedy guy like Fatty Li.
"This way! Come here first!"
Fatty Li waved to the servant serving the dishes, looking impatient.
Several people frowned, and even Xiao Fei and the other three looked disgusted.
I secretly moved my chair out, acting as if I didn't recognize this guy.
Fatty Li doesn't know this, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. After all, he has seen this kind of look many times before and is already used to it.
After hearing Fatty Li's shouts, many people in the venue subconsciously turned their attention to their table.
Xiao Fei and others suddenly felt burning pain on their faces, and even Qi Lang, the young city lord, was a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but coughed twice, trying to cover up his embarrassment.
Huang Wuji was direct. He lifted his leg from under the table and kicked Fatty Li hard. At the same time, he glared at Fatty Li fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "Young Master, you are so embarrassing!"
