Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 59 Hongmen Banquet

"Alright." Tang Yuehua put the comb on the dressing table, looked at Tang San who was carefully dressed by her in the mirror, and said:

"Little birthday boy, it's your turn to come out. Don't keep the guests waiting too long."

In front of the dressing table, Tang San looked at his radiant self in the mirror and smiled confidently.

"Yes, the guests have been waiting for so long, it's time for the finale to begin!"

……

In the banquet hall.

The dignitaries sat together with people they knew, talking to each other in low voices.

Until one moment, the sound of footsteps was heard.

"Welcome all guests to attend Mr. Tang's birthday celebration and bring glory to the Tang Clan."

Before I saw the person, I heard his voice first.

Everyone present turned their eyes towards the entrance of the banquet hall, wanting to see the legendary leader of the Tang Sect with their own eyes.

I saw a nine-year-old boy walking in front of the five people. He was wearing a festive red robe and his long black hair was tied behind his head with a red headband.

On his left side followed Yuexuan Lord Tang Yuehua and Li clan leader Taitan, and on his right side followed the master craftsman Lou Gao and Min clan leader Bai He.

Tang San's appearance successfully caused a round of whispers among the dignitaries present.

"Is this Madam Yue's nephew? He has a good temperament, but his appearance is average."

"It doesn't matter if your appearance is average. When it comes to marriage, the most important thing is status and power."

"Marquis Ye, I remember you have a daughter who is very beautiful, but she still has no partner. What do you think of the leader of the Tang Sect?"

"..."

The topics discussed by the powerful and wealthy are almost all about marriage.

It's no wonder, since Tang San looks just like a newlywed groom.

In the corner, Lin Rong watched this scene and thought:

"Tang San shouldn't make such a mistake. Could it be that this guy really wants to form an alliance?"

"It's not impossible. The marriage is a hundred benefits for Tang San and has no harm."

"Without the childhood sweetheart relationship between Xiao Wu and Tang San in the original novel, Tang San would never be attracted to a woman with his personality."

"There is no love, only exploitation. I don't know who will marry Tang San in the end?"

Beside Tang San, Bai He had been looking for someone since he entered the banquet hall.

"Where is he? Where is he?" Bai He looked around and finally found Lin Rong sitting in the corner of the banquet hall.

"found it!"

Bai He narrowed his eyes, clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, and felt so angry that his teeth were itching.

In the corner, Lin Rong noticed Bai He's gaze, but did not say anything because he was too lazy to argue with a dying man.

The little birthday boy appeared and the birthday celebration soon began.

However, most of the guests present were here for hidden weapons, and Tang San knew this clearly.

So, after one stick of incense.

The birthday celebration came to an end, and it was time for the highlight of the day - the appreciation of hidden weapons.

The Tang Sect disciples presented various hidden weapons one by one on a huge rectangular table:
Silent sleeve arrows, innuendo, stomping crossbow, tight back flower crossbow, Zhuge crossbow...

Lin Rong just took a look at these hidden weapons and then looked away.

He thought that since Tang San held such a grand banquet, he would bring out some really good things.

"I'm overthinking it. How could Tang San reveal his true identity to outsiders?"

For each hidden weapon displayed on the long table, Tang Sect disciples took turns demonstrating its usage and power, causing many guests to exclaim in surprise.

Although these powerful people are all soul masters, they have been pampered for generations and neglected the cultivation of their soul power, resulting in generally low levels of soul power.

After seeing the power of hidden weapons with their own eyes, they were both afraid and eager to use these hidden weapons that could threaten their lives. This was exactly what Tang San was happy to see.

He wanted to use the help of these powerful people to take the first step towards making the Tang Clan famous.

After the hidden weapon display.

Tang San said that today the Tang Sect would put out ten sets of hidden weapons for sale, and everyone present could raise the price freely. The ten guests with the highest bids would get the ten sets of hidden weapons.

“Hunger sales?”

Lin Rong shook his head and thought:

"Impossible, Tang San can't possibly understand these things. He probably just doesn't want too many hidden weapons to be revealed."

Time passes quickly.

There was a fierce bidding war.

In the end, two of the ten sets of hidden weapons fell into the hands of the royal family.

Among them, Prince Xue Xing won one set and Xue Qinghe won one set.

Lin Rong guessed that Qian Renxue was thinking about finding some skilled craftsmen to reverse the drawings of the hidden weapons so that they could be mass-produced.

She didn't even think about it: if it were so easy, would the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect still cooperate with Tang San so obediently?
After the auction of the hidden weapons, the banquet was actually over.

In just a few moments, 70% of the dignitaries present had left.

After a while, after the three royal family members left, the only guests present were Lin Rong, Ning Fengzhi and Dugu Bo.

The atmosphere at this moment is a bit weird.

Ning Fengzhi, who stayed here, originally had business to discuss with Tang San, but he suddenly remembered what Bone Douluo Gu Rong had whispered to him after they entered the banquet hall.

Then, Ning Fengzhi looked at the old butler Yu Yuan meaningfully, stood up and said to Tang San:

"Master Tang, Feng Zhi suddenly remembered that he has some urgent matters to deal with. Let's make an appointment another day to discuss in detail."

After saying that, Ning Fengzhi took Ning Rongrong and Gu Rong out of the banquet hall.

At this point, besides Tang San and his group, there were only four outsiders left in the banquet hall: Lin Rong, the old butler, Dugu Bo, and Dugu Yan.

Tang San was very satisfied with the current situation.

He could tell at a glance that Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, grandfather and grandson, were poisoned, and he had a way to cure it.

This life-saving favor, coupled with his attainments in poison, gave Tang San the confidence to subdue Dugu Bo.

At the same time, Tang San also learned from Bai He that the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng was in Lin Rong's hands.

Before, when the four single-attribute clans gathered together, Bai He had asked Yang Wudi indirectly about the crystal blood dragon ginseng.

It turned out that Lin Rong did not take out the crystal blood dragon ginseng to make medicine for Yang Wudi.

In this way, the crystal blood dragon ginseng is likely to remain intact in Lin Rong's hands.

Thinking of the record of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng in the Xuantian Treasure Record, Tang San couldn't help but feel excited.

The peerless immortal items that only existed in legends in the previous life actually exist in this world.

Perhaps, even the three legendary treasure bowls in the world really exist in this world, but they are hidden in some unknown places, waiting for people to explore.

The Tang Sect was established not long ago and in order to maintain its reputation.

Tang San mercifully did not intend to rob it, but planned to use one million gold soul coins to buy the crystal blood dragon ginseng back.

He believed that facing the oppression of the three Soul Douluos, Lin Rong would make the right choice.

"Master Tang, the tea is getting cold. Don't you want to replace it?"

Seeing Tang San standing there immersed in his own fantasy, Lin Rong spoke up to break the silence.
