Chapter 266 City Lord's Mansion
The chief steward hurriedly ordered the maids standing behind him to pour spiritual wine for each table of guests.
After the meal, everyone was led to another courtyard by the servants of the city lord's mansion.
At night, the courtyard is filled with lanterns. What is lit in the lanterns is not fire, but luminous pearls.
The Night Pearl is not valuable in the world of cultivation, and its only function is to provide lighting.
This is a large garden with a unique scenery under the illumination of night pearls.
Han Xin Shi Yan and several of his former tablemates casually found a pavilion to sit down. While everyone was discussing the four arts, two young male and female monks came to stand in front of them.
"Fellow Taoist Lu Yue."
Han Xin and others stood up to greet each other.
She and Shi Yan don’t know anyone from Lu Yue, but someone does. Wouldn’t everyone just say hello together?
Moreover, the other party's surname is Lu, and the city lord is also surnamed Lu. With a quick thought, everyone will probably know the other party's identity.
“Don’t be so angry, everyone, please sit down.”
After greeting everyone with a smile, the young male cultivator pulled the female cultivator standing beside him to sit on his around.
The young male cultivator introduced his identity. It turned out that he was the young master of the city lord's mansion and the second son of the young city lord.
“Aren’t you Taoist fellow Lu Yue busy today? Why are you free to come here?”
The person who asked the question was Fan Jin, the second winner of the weapon refining group. His family also lived in Longcheng, but his identity was just a casual cultivator.
He knew Lu Yue, but they had not been in contact before and were not familiar with him.
It can be said that no one in their circle of ten is familiar with the young master of the City Lord's Mansion. At this time, the young master of the City Lord's Mansion came over, which really made him very curious.
"Haha. My task today is to chat with you, by the way." Lu Yue pointed at the beautiful female nun beside him and said: "This is the youngest daughter of my second uncle's family, my little cousin, Lu Ting, Ting'er, I have met all the senior brothers and sisters. "
The female cultivator Piaoliang only has the cultivation level of the early stage of foundation building, and the lowest cultivation level of the ten people here is the cultivation level of the late stage of foundation building.
Lu Ting stood up with a red face and said hello to everyone one by one.
Shi Yan frowned. The shy look the female cultivator gave just now was probably not directed at him, right?
“My cousin has a relatively introverted personality, which makes everyone laugh.”
Oh, my cousin’s blushing personality cannot be changed.
"My sister is very cute. There are fewer and fewer shy women nowadays. It is really an honor for us to meet such a cute and beautiful little junior sister today, haha"
< br>
"Haha..." Lu Yue was naturally happy that his cousin was praised.
The monks here are all the top one or two in this Four Arts Competition. They can stand out from tens of thousands of contestants, which shows that they are all people with real talents.
In addition to these two female cultivators and three slightly older male cultivators, the other five are all young and handsome people. If any of them can compete with their little cousin, If they meet each other, it will be a matter of course to draw them into the Lu family's camp. My little cousin is pretty, and with her shy and frail look, she is a character that many male cultivators like.
Monks spend their days either fighting or in seclusion. If they can have a Taoist companion who is willing to talk to them and who has status, who wouldn't like it?
Thinking like this, Lu Yue glanced at the young handsome bodies one by one, and was stunned for a moment when he glanced at Shi Yan.
Are these two a couple?
A flash of disappointment flashed in Lu Yue's eyes.
What a pity, Shi Yan is one of his most valued future brothers-in-law.
Shi Yan is young and the youngest among all the male cultivators present. He is young, his cultivation has reached the peak of foundation building, and he is handsome. Among all the people here, he is the first choice for his brother-in-law. .
How come he has a partner?
But looking at the female cultivator holding hands with him, Lu Yue had no choice but to admit defeat. Although his little cousin was beautiful and gentle, her qualifications were somewhat inferior.
Not only does this female cultivator look as good as her cousin, she is also much younger than her cousin. The most important thing is that her cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building at such a young age.
Except for the other party’s family background, generally speaking, everything is better than my little cousin.
Unfortunately, he already has a female cultivator he likes. If not for the city lord's mansion, he might actually take over the task assigned by the family and become a Taoist couple with one of the female cultivators to add talents to the family.
I have someone I like, so the arduous task of getting married can only be completed by my little cousin.
At this age, Lu Yue did not want his weak little cousin to suffer in the future. Since the first candidate he had chosen already had his own destiny, he would focus on the second candidate.
Although the second candidate is much older than the first candidate, he is now a Golden Core monk and his appearance is also very outstanding. The little cousin has the backing of the City Lord's Mansion. I believe Xiao Tang My sister will not have a bad life in the future.
So he shifted his gaze away from the intertwined hands of Shi Yan and Han Xin, and looked at the second candidate he liked.
Shi Yan and Han Xin have keen senses. As soon as the cousins came to the City Lord's Mansion, they felt that they were paying attention to Shi Yan intentionally or unintentionally. As the person involved, how could Shi Yan not pay attention to it? arrive?
Han Xin, who was very close to him, also noticed it.
When everyone praised Lu Ting for her beauty and cuteness, Shi Yan and Han Xin noticed that the other person's gaze was wrong.
Why do you think people blush? Isn’t that just looking at Shi Yan?
Forget it, it’s normal for a little girl to like a good-looking man, but something was wrong with Lu Yue’s look just now, as if he was looking at his own family.
This is why when Lu Yue looked over, he saw Shi Yan and Han Xin holding hands.
They wanted Lu Yue to give up his unrealistic thoughts.
Seeing that Lu Yue finally turned his attention to the others, Han Xin was about to break free from Shi Yan's hand, but at this moment, from the corner of her eye, she saw Lu Ting turning her head to look towards them. She immediately gave up her intention to take back her hand.
Lu Ting felt excited in her heart. Her little cousin was so nice. If she could achieve what she wanted, she would definitely thank her cousin afterwards.
Full of joy, when she saw the holding hands, her face suddenly turned pale.
How could this happen? How come they are together?
She finally worked up the courage to come over with her cousin, but in the end she saw the scene she least wanted to see.
Ever since she went to the outer city to watch the Four Arts Competition and saw Shi Yan's performance, she remembered him.
When she had free time every day, she would always think of Shi Yan's honor and disgrace during the competition, and his handsome appearance and cold expression. Everything about him made her like him and she would never forget him.
Because she wanted to see the opponent so much, she went to watch Shi Yan's competition a few times later. Unfortunately, because there were too many contestants and Shi Yan's position was too far back, she could only wait until his competition was over. Only then could she see the back of the figure leaving the ring in a hurry.
