Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 344 Banquet
The sound was clear and melodious, spreading throughout the house.

Chen Mu opened his eyes, and with an idea in his mind, he used his spiritual sense to explore first.

After seeing the figures of the two people outside the mansion, he raised one eyebrow, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

But I saw someone I knew...

The handsome young man in white robe who fell behind the Feng family cultivator was none other than Han Chengran, the eldest son of the Han family who had pretended to be friendly with Chen Mu in the Sea Eye Secret Realm!

Moreover, under his spiritual consciousness, the realm of this person in the early stage of foundation building was clearly revealed, and he was already a fellow foundation building practitioner.

"I actually ran into someone I know... But, has the Han family also joined the Feng family?"

In his memory, the Han family was also a Jindan power, with a Jindan Zhenren among the family. Even if their strength could not match that of the Feng family, they would not lower their status and become a vassal...

Chen Mu's eyes moved quietly. After thinking for a moment, he stood up and walked out.

Whether it is true or not, you will know after trying it out.

Gao Xianming had already noticed it and was waiting outside the room, waiting for Chen Mu. At this moment, he appeared in front of everyone.

The fog gathered by the formation slowly dissipated, and Chen Mu and Gao Xianming strode out!

The Feng family cultivator's eyes narrowed, and he looked closely at Chen Mu who was walking in front.

His complexion is sallow, his energy is deficient, and he is a greedy person...

This was his first impression of Chen Mu's appearance.

"Greedy people... that's easy to deal with."

Feng Wenzheng smiled inwardly, raised his smiling face and bowed, saying, "This must be Fellow Daoist Xu, a disciple of the Beiyuan Sect's Fushan Changhe. He is indeed a man of profound cultivation and extraordinary temperament..."

When these words were spoken, not only Chen Mu felt that he was going too far, even Han Chengran curled his lips slightly. How could someone with such appearance be said to have extraordinary temperament?

However, he did not show it. He just smiled and bowed as well, but he did not recognize Chen Mu.

Seeing this, Chen Mu's eyes flashed, and after making up his mind, he chuckled and replied, "You two Daoists are truly handsome and graceful, which makes Xu very envious... But, what brings you here today?"

Not knowing the other party's rules, he simply asked directly, changing his previous cautious style so as to make the other party make a wrong judgment.

Feng Wenzheng smiled when he heard this, but did not respond immediately. Instead, he introduced Han Chengran:
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Xu. This is Fellow Daoist Han Chengran, the heir apparent of the Han family on Xuanwu Island... We came here to make friends with Fellow Daoist Xu..."

After saying this, his eyes flickered as he stared closely at Chen Mu's reaction.

In his words, he did not mention Xiaoqing at all.

"Hahaha..." Without any warning, Chen Mu suddenly laughed out loud twice, feigning joy and saying, "Then Fellow Daoist Feng has come to the right place. Everyone in the world knows that I, Xu Jingyang, love making friends with fellow Daoists!"

As soon as the words fell, Gao Xianming, who was standing beside him, felt a pang in his heart and almost subconsciously stopped himself from making any sound. However, he immediately remembered Chen Mu's advice to him to be patient, so he forced himself to hold it back.

Feng Wen Zheng chuckled twice and felt that Chen Mu was easy to deal with, as long as he found the right method.

"Feng Wende is too anxious. Instead of engaging in a physical fight, we should offer him generous rewards to get him to side with us..."

He gave Han Chengran a look, and he immediately understood, so he followed Chen Mu's words and said:

"Fellow Daoist Xu is indeed worthy of being a disciple of a great sect. However, we two came here in such a hurry that it was truly rude... How about this? Three days from now, we will host a banquet on Mingyue Island. Fellow Daoist Xu, please attend the banquet then, is that okay?"

It was obvious that they had come here to test him. If Chen Mu gave in to their words, they would host a banquet and offer him generous rewards. If Chen Mu refused, they could make another move... Chen Mu pondered this in his mind, but waved his hand casually: "Okay, okay. Mingyue Island, right? I'll be there in three days!"

"Hahaha... Fellow Daoist Xu is so happy. We won't bother you any more and will go back and prepare as soon as possible!"

Feng Wenzheng bowed and smiled, and after exchanging a glance with Han Chengran, they both bowed and left...

After the two figures disappeared, Gao Xianming finally let down his guard and advised, "Friend Xu, the Feng family does whatever they want and never cares about the rules of righteousness. If you want to make friends with them, you should think twice."

He was not afraid that Chen Mu would sell Gao Xiaoqing out. After all, if he had this idea, Chen Mu would not take action against Feng Wende. He only needed to reveal his identity and then wait for resources to come.

Rather, he was worried that Chen Mu would be too careless and fall into the Feng family's trap...

Chen Mu didn't show it on his face, but he agreed in his heart.

Feng Wen Zheng was so polite today because he felt that he had an opportunity. If he still refused his request for Gao Xiaoqing in the end, he might turn against him in an instant.

But if he wanted to find a way out, he could only temporarily try to gain advantage by playing the tiger's game and delaying the situation. After all, he couldn't save Gao Xiaoqing with his own strength...

However, there is no need to say these words to Gao Xianming, so as to avoid causing him to waver again.

"I need to find an opportunity to meet with the others..."

Chen Mu pondered inwardly, already having some ideas in mind.

……

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

The boundless sea surface is slightly floating, the sky is clear and the air is fresh, making people feel like ants in it.

Above this boundless sea, there is a huge island with a vast area of ​​thousands of miles. Because its overall shape is like a bright moon in the sky, it was named Mingyue Island by the owner of this island.

This island is located at the junction of Dongming Sea and Jinfeng Sea. It does not belong to either of the two sea areas, but is occupied by the Penglai Alliance of the East China Sea.

The Penglai Alliance also took advantage of the important bordering area here to build the largest market in the two sea areas, with countless treasures hidden there. Auctions are held from time to time, and countless monks come and go.

The reason why Feng Wen Zheng chose this place to hold the banquet was to show his sincerity and to let Chen Mu know that there was the Penglai Alliance behind the Feng family.

The second reason was that they had considered it in advance and were afraid that they could not meet Chen Mu's needs. They held a banquet here and they could also meet the conditions proposed by Chen Mu as soon as possible.

But it was a very comprehensive consideration, prepared for a rainy day...

After an unknown amount of time, a water-colored light slowly landed on Mingyue Island. Compared with the light constantly moving back and forth in the sky, Chen Mu was inconspicuous at all.

Perhaps because it's located at the border of two seas, the local customs and people here are very strange, which really opened Chen Mu's eyes to a new world...

Take their attire, for example. The island's native monks usually dress like ordinary people, but once they encounter a grand auction-like event, they cover their vital parts with small items like seaweed and shells, then dance in unison on the streets, their faces filled with reverence, muttering over and over again about a demonic god named Haiyu...

Not only was he a little shocked by this scene, even monks Dongming and Jinfeng felt a little uncomfortable.

But there were also people vying to applaud, especially when facing those plump female cultivators, who would inevitably tease the seaweed while dancing, revealing their spring beauty.

This caused the curious to laugh and shout, and then they called her the female Bodhisattva...
