"Aren't you doing business?" Meng Furong's voice came from her heart. At this time, Tang Yue was buying croquettes at a stall. Tang Yue replied seriously, "You should do business if you are familiar with the environment. Otherwise, you won't be able to defeat him and you won't have anywhere to run.
Isn’t that miserable? You see, I have visited all the places in the past few days, even found the alleys and secret passages in the palace, and I still have a lot of serious things to do. "
Meng Furong was speechless. She had obviously been sightseeing in the past few days. She had not missed the famous places of interest and the Wase Restaurant. She also discussed the construction art and totem symbolism of the palace with her. It didn't look like she was doing anything serious.
"It's up to you. I've never been to Xuanjian City before. I've been stuck in those chivalrous acts, seeking fame and fame, and love and hate. I didn't think of wandering around. Now I've seen a lot of interesting things."
"Right, once you have seen more scenery, all the entanglements in the past will become unimportant. Besides, now that your body is pregnant, you should eat well, drink well and be in a good mood."
In fact, Tang Yue was also very panicked. Zong Yingkong had been here for hundreds of years, and the spiritual power he had accumulated far exceeded what was needed for Mahayana ascension. The illusion could not last long, and when Kong Yingzong could no longer be restrained, no one could resist.
But staying in the house won't help, it will only increase anxiety. It's better to go out and see Xuanjian City, just in case you really can't escape, and you can still enjoy life.
When she returned to her room in the evening, a spiritual letter came from Xuanjian City, inviting her to attend the guest guests' dust-cleansing banquet. It turned out that a week had passed and the city lord's palace had finished selecting the guest guests.
"We have been waiting for this day. The hope of dealing with Zong Yingkong lies with the people in the City Lord's Mansion." Tang Yue said to himself and also to Meng Furong.
"How to persuade the people in the City Lord's Mansion to help us?" Meng Furong thought it was feasible, but she had never asked anyone to do anything, so she didn't know how to convince the City Lord's Mansion.
"It's nothing more than beauty temptation, frame-up, moral kidnapping, etc. When the time comes, we'll see which method works best."
"You are so treacherous."
"Tch, in this situation, is it possible to deal with Kong Yingzong without being treacherous? He would use all possible means."
"I know, I failed because I didn't have the courage to lose face."
"Are you scolding me?"
Meng Furong stopped talking, indicating that she acquiesced, and Tang Yue decided to use up everything in her storage magic weapon and leave nothing for her.
But she forgot at this time that this was an illusion, and the contents in the storage bag were also fake. They were transformed by the power of the Black Cloud Secret Realm. Even if she couldn't use them all, she couldn't take them out to Meng Furong.
And Meng Furong's real magic weapon lies in her own hands.
The banquet held by the city lord's palace was very large, with three to four hundred monks attending the banquet.
Tang Yue was very puzzled. It wasn’t like he wanted to rebel, and there had been no major wars recently. Xuanjian City actually hired so many guests. He carefully looked at each person’s cultivation level. Most of them were in the Golden Elixir and Distraction Stage. Nascent Soul
There are dozens of stages, and more than a dozen stages of transformation.
There were only three monks in the integration stage. They sat at a few low tables in front of the banquet like her, and they also kept silent and behaved like a high-ranking person in the world.
The city lord made an important speech before the banquet, "Thank you for coming all the way and becoming my guest in Xuanjian City. From now on, we will work together for the prosperity of Xuanjian City."
After saying this, he toasted to everyone and used amplification techniques so that monks in the distance could hear his speech.
All the cultivators responded one after another, "Thank you City Lord."
"Without further ado, let's enjoy today's banquet."
The casual cultivators thanked the city lord one after another and began to enjoy the banquet. Since the other two cultivators did not speak, she could not hold chopsticks, so she could only stay silent with them.
The city lord said to the three of them: "I, Zhao Tianming, have been the city lord for twenty years. Can the three of you formally introduce yourselves?"
The male monk sitting at the first table said, "I am Wu Pengcheng, a wandering monk with no fixed residence."
The second male monk said: "I am Zhan Yuan, from Yunxia, a small sect. You may not have heard of it."
The city lord hurriedly replied: "Of course I have heard of the Yunxia Sect. It is located in the southeast and is famous for its sharp swords."
"The city lord has heard of such a small sect, which is admirable." After the two of them exchanged polite greetings, it was Tang Yue's turn.
"I, Meng Furong, come from a secluded family in Xianyuan Mountain. The city lord may not have heard of it."
The middle-aged man sitting in the upper seat had the opportunity to look at this graceful beauty, whose appearance was rare in the world. He lost his composure for a moment and then hurriedly replied, "But the legendary descendant of the goddess Mengjia?"
Tang Yue didn't know whether it was true or not, so she just took it as such. She didn't have to worry about her face, "It's just misinformation from the world. I don't dare to take it seriously."
Meng Furong was dissatisfied in her heart and said: "What misinformation? My family is really the descendant of the goddess."
Tang Yue was surprised. Then she was not lying all the way?
Zhao Tianming smiled slightly, "Monk Meng is so graceful and worthy of the name of a descendant of the goddess. There is no need to be modest."
The other party is also a person who cares about face. It seems that she can persuade the city lord to help her deal with Kong Yingzong.
Zhao Tianming asked the three Fusion Stage monks again, "But the food is not to your liking?"
One of the monks, who looked older, replied, "The delicious food prepared by the city lord is very good, and there is nothing wrong with it. It's just that we have questions in our minds and want to ask the city lord."
He and another fusion-stage monk had "encountered" each other by chance in the palace not long ago and had already exchanged views with each other. They only had no chance to meet this fusion female cultivator. She also had an outstanding appearance and could easily be misunderstood if she came rashly, so he did not talk to her. She communicates.
She remained silent, presumably because she agreed that she spoke on behalf of the three of them.
The city lord made a gesture of invitation, "But it doesn't matter."
"We would like to ask why Xuanjian City invites so many guests. I see that there are many monks and disciples in the city lord's palace, and their cultivation levels are not low. It is not like your steward said that there is a lack of manpower.
The city lord handed over his hand, "It's just like that on the surface. In half a month, there are three to five hundred disciples and monks in the city who will go to Xuanyuan Mountain to join the Western Region Demon Slayer Team.
The incident happened suddenly and we had no time to prepare. The city will inevitably be short of a large number of manpower, and insufficient defense will lead to evil and heretic covetousness. Therefore, we issued a hero list to recruit everyone to come to the mansion to help us."
The disciples of the three major sects have always been responsible for slaying demons. Wherever there is a demon problem, they will first send their disciples as vanguards. If there is not enough manpower, they will ask other famous city-states in Liuzhou Continent to send manpower.
This monk had heard about this. A month ago, a powerful Fire Demon King appeared in the Western Region and invaded the mortal world, causing countless casualties. Heaven issued an edict, requiring the monks of Liuzhou Continent to eliminate the demons and restore peace to the world.
"So that's the case, but I haven't heard that Wuji and Xianyuan Mountains sent their disciples to exterminate demons. Why did it come to Xuanjian City?"
The city lord sighed slightly, "Xuanyuan Mountain has always been responsible for the demonic troubles in the Western Region. Whether the scale of this evil trouble is big or not, Xuanyuan Mountain has enough people to send, so Wuji and Xianyuan Mountains failed to agree to form a demon-killing team.
Fight the demons together with Xuanyuan Mountain. It can be said that it is not small. The Fire Demon was born from eating the rare treasures of heaven and earth. It should not be underestimated. If there are not enough manpower, I am afraid there will be many disciples killed or injured."
Another male fused cultivator took over the conversation, "Xuanjian City has always advanced and retreated with Xuanyuan Mountain, so it sent our disciples to help Xuanyuan Mountain eliminate demons and defend the way. It is really admirable and respectable."
"Thank you. This is our responsibility. We must not be careless when it comes to eliminating demons. Only disciples who are trustworthy can participate. If a demon spy sneaks in, the consequences will be disastrous. We, Xuanjian City, can only quickly select the most capable disciples."
Believe me, disciple, support Xuanyuan Mountain."
The monk who spoke first poured a glass of wine and said, "The City Lord's Mansion has done such a righteous deed to protect the peace of the human world. I would like to propose a toast to you."
Tang Yue and another monk also toasted to the city lord, and after a few polite words, they were finally able to eat.
The spiritual food and wine at the banquet were all very exquisite, full of color, fragrance, and characteristics of Xuanjian City. There were many well-made pastries. For her, it was the most important thing in this banquet. The second most important thing.
Only by building a good relationship with the city lord.
