Eternal Sword

Chapter 431 Gifts
On this day, the Plum Blossom Sword Sect established a new leader, and various martial arts forces in Wuzhou have arrived one after another.

Peng Shiquan did not sleep all night.

He has been feeling a little uneasy these days.

For this reason, he went to the cells in the back mountain to check every night and found nothing unusual.

As for the two young men from Langya Pavilion, they have been very well behaved during these three days.

According to the disciples who were following him, the sword moves used by Shen Tang were indeed inherited from Shujiantang.

Moreover, it is the most famous "Linhe Preface" of Shujiantang!
If you are not a true disciple of Shujiantang, you are not qualified to practice the sword moves in "Linhe Xu".

Peng Shiquan didn't think about it any more.

After all, they are two juniors, so even if something unexpected happens, it won’t cause much trouble.

Peng Shiquan thought about it and was relieved only after he was sure that there were no variables or accidents.

With the help of servants, he bathed, changed clothes, burned incense and washed his hands.

When the auspicious time arrived, Peng Shiquan, surrounded by the disciples of the Plum Blossom Sword Sect, walked towards the front hall.

All the friends from various gangs have already arrived.

Among them, the top forces in Wuzhou alone include the four major sects of Songtao Temple, Zuixianlou, Shuiyuedaomen, and Soft Jade Whipmen.

There are also some second- and third-rate forces, such as the Bishui Pavilion, which is proficient in the art of medicine and is good at detoxification and healing.

The largest bank in Beijing, Ruyi Bank.

It is said that the backer behind Ruyi Money House is the current Shangshu Shen Guobao.

There is also the Qianji Sect, which specializes in ingenious mechanisms.

The Iron Fist Gang is a gang from the capital that roams the streets.

Rumor has it that there is also the shadow of government behind this gang.

The leader of the Iron Fist Gang can even reach the sky!

Among these people, the one with the highest status is the owner of Xiaoyao Tower in Zuixian Tower in the capital.

The Zuixianlou in the capital city is considered the headquarters of Zuixianlou. One can imagine the status of the owner of Xiaoyaolou in Zuixianlou.

Over the years, the Plum Blossom Sword School has become a second-rate force.

First-rate forces like Songtao Temple, Shuiyue Sword Sect, and Soft Jade Whip Sect did not send their chief abbots in person, but instead sent a warrior with some status and reputation in the sect, usually a third- or fourth-rank master, to bring several disciples to the scene.

The owner of Xiaoyao Tower came in person, which gave Peng Shiquan enough face.

It is said that Peng Shiquan was expelled from the Plum Blossom Sword School, but was fortunately taken in by Zuixianlou, which helped him overcome the difficulties. He also became close friends with some people in Zuixianlou.

Now it seems that this statement is true.

Everyone first exchanged pleasantries and greeted each other.

Not long after, Peng Shiquan arrived here.

"Master Peng, congratulations."

When He Huo, the head of Bishui Pavilion, saw Peng Shiquan coming, he stood up to greet him and said with a smile, "It's just a small gift, not a token of respect."

He Huo ordered his disciples to bring a tray and lift the lid.

There are two porcelain bottles, one black and one white, placed on it.

He Huo said: "This is the latest healing medicine developed by the Bishui Pavilion, the black and white Bishui pills. The black one is for internal use and the white one is for external use. The effect is excellent. Of course, I still hope that Master Peng will never need to use this thing."

"Ha ha!"

Peng Shiquan laughed loudly, motioned for his disciple to take the tray, and said, "Master He is thoughtful."

Boss Ji of Ruyi Bank was fat and big-eared. He was always smiling and had a big belly. He simply stood up and gasped a few times. He smiled and said, "My gift is very tacky. Here is 10,000 taels of silver notes. You can exchange them at any Ruyi Bank in Daxia."

Everyone couldn't help but exclaim in their hearts.

The initial investment is ten thousand taels, which is no small amount!

“It’s cheesy, it’s cheesy!”

Peng Shiquan laughed again and said, "We who travel the world are all ordinary people!" Then the leaders or elders of various major forces presented their congratulatory gifts one after another.

Some people gave some exquisite and wonderful mechanical devices, some gave a peerless sword with a cold and sharp light, and some gave some rare jewels and strange stones from the sky...

Peng Shiquan was overjoyed, feeling proud and high-spirited.

When he first arrived, he found that the two people from Langya Pavilion were not there.

He also specifically instructed two disciples to go and see what was going on.

At this moment, with the congratulations of his fellow martial artists and seeing the numerous dazzling treasures, Peng Shiquan was overjoyed and had long forgotten about the matters of Chen Tang and the other man.

He knew that he had seized the position of leader by extraordinary means.

Although he used killing and bloodshed to force most of the disciples in the sword sect to acknowledge him.

But these disciples must be dissatisfied with him in their hearts.

Through this scene today, he wanted to let these disciples of the Plum Blossom Sword Sect see what status he, Peng Shiquan, holds in the martial arts world!
If it was that old fellow Mei Qingyuan, would so many fellow martial artists come to congratulate him?
Why would they send so many rare treasures?
The owner of Xiaoyao Tower was a middle-aged scholar in his forties, holding a folding fan, looking very elegant. Finally, he stood up, smiled slightly, and said, "I came here today, but I didn't bring any gifts."

"The host is joking."

Peng Shiquan said with a smile: "Your presence here has brought honor to our Plum Blossom Sword School."

Xiaoyao Tower Master flicked his wrist, opened his folding fan, and changed the subject: "However, I brought two jars of wine."

Everyone present's eyes lit up when they heard this!
The most famous wine of Zuixianlou is the legendary Zui Baxian!

Xiaoyao Tower Master said leisurely: "One of the jars is naturally a gift for Brother Peng. The other jar is for drinking with all the friends who are present today!"

"it is good!"

"readily!"

"The host is so generous!"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but cheer, looking excited.

The leaders and elders of the second- and third-rate forces present had never had the opportunity to taste the Drunken Eight Immortals before.

Unexpectedly, I would have the opportunity to taste this exquisite wine today!
Xiaoyao Tower Master smiled and said, "It was also Master who traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers, explored countless ruins and dangerous places, and searched for ancient recipes before he finally came up with this Drunken Eight Immortals."

"The first toast we'll have to make is to Senior Zui Weng!"

Someone suggested.

"Not bad!"

"Senior Zui Weng is generous and unrestrained by nature. He founded Zuixianlou just to make friends over wine and make friends with heroes all over the world."

Everyone agreed.

Peng Shiquan made eye contact with the owner of Xiaoyao Tower, coughed lightly, and said, "The Xuantian bandits are growing stronger and stronger, and the martial arts world is declining. The seniors of the Jianzong sect have withdrawn from the world, and only the senior Zuiweng of the older generation can lead the martial arts world."

"In my opinion, if Senior Zui Weng is willing to come out for the martial arts conference at the end of the year, we might as well nominate him as the leader of the martial arts world!"

"That's not appropriate."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Tower Master shook his head and said, "Master is indifferent to fame and gain, I'm afraid he won't get involved in such things."

Peng Shiquan said: "Brother Xiaoyao, go back and persuade Senior Zuiweng. If he doesn't come out to take charge of the situation, the martial arts world will be in danger!"

"Yes, a few days ago, the Xuantian bandits attacked Meixiang County at night, causing countless casualties. It was like hell on earth, a terrible sight!" Master Qingfeng sighed.

"Master, the time has come!"

At this moment, a disciple from the Plum Blossom Sword Sect stepped forward and gave a quiet reminder.

Peng Shiquan bowed and said, "Please wait a moment."

To succeed the leader of the Plum Blossom Sword Sect, a simple ceremony must be held.

He officially became the head of the sect only after he used the Plum Blossom Sword to cut off a plum blossom and put it into the wine, and drank a cup with all the disciples present.

"Peng Shiquan, I also have a gift for you."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the back of the hall.
