Chapter 191.2
Chapter 191.2
After Yunjian Pavilion, when other forces gave gifts, they began to move their minds.
In fact, most forces don’t value Wuling City very much, and the gifts they send out are relatively lacking in sincerity.
At best, it is of some value, but it is certainly not very hard.
However, the long list of gifts from Yunjian Pavilion directly enhanced the grandeur of this founding ceremony.
If the people behind don’t want to be looked down upon, they have to come up with something truly sincere.
Imagine that the first person who gave gifts gave gold and jewelry, and you followed closely and gave chickens, ducks, and fish. Even if the other person has a close relationship with the host family, wouldn’t you feel ashamed in the comparison?
On such an occasion, no one wants to be ashamed. Therefore, even if everyone was unhappy, they could only change their gifts on the spot.
As for where the gifts came from? They can only find it from their own collection.
As the guests sat down, the auspicious time originally scheduled for the founding ceremony was approaching.
After the last guest was seated, Feng Shao stood up and said in a loud voice, “I am Feng Shao, the lord of Wuling City. Here, I would like to thank all the guests for coming from afar. If there is any lack of hospitality, please let me know, everyone!”After a pause, Feng Shao was about to continue talking, but he heard a burst of arrogant laughter coming from the direction of the city gate.
“Why is City Lord Feng in such a hurry to hold this grand ceremony before all the guests are seated? How do we deal with this?”
Feng Shao’s pupils shrank slightly, vaguely guessing that the other party had bad intentions. But the expression on his face did not change, he just said loudly, “Since the guests have arrived, please take a seat.”
The man said with a smile: “Since the City Lord Feng is so enthusiastic, then I will respect him!”
After a pause, the man said loudly, “Xin Ruxiong, the holy son of Jiuyou Sacred Land, respectfully send a hundred catties of Jiuyou Black Stone, congratulations to Wuling City!”
As soon as the words fell, everyone saw hundreds of cultivators in black costumes coming aggressively into the city. In the team, the most conspicuous thing is the luxurious carriage in the middle, which is like a guard of honor for the emperor.
Feng Shao secretly laughed.
This Jiuyou Sacred Land’s chosen holy sons actually liked to show off so much.
This was true for Chi Xuan before, and it is also true for Xin Ruxiong today.
Although this Xin Ruxiong was not as grand as Chi Xuan, he was much better than everyone present, second only to Yunjian Pavilion.
On that carriage, Xin Ruxiong is now sitting lazily on top of it, wearing the clothes of the Jiuyou holy son. He looked at Feng Shao from a distance, with a half-smile on his face.
A Jiuyou disciple who had joined Wuling City couldn’t help but ask Zuo Linglan in a low voice, “Senior sister Zuo, what exactly is this senior brother Xin trying to do, acting like this?”
Zuo Linglan’s face was also a little unsightly.
She didn’t expect that Xin Ruxiong would actually have the ability to become the new holy son of Jiuyou Sacred Land, let alone that he would bring Jiuyou disciples to Wuling City to show off his might.
Xin Ruxiong said “Congratulations”, but just listening to the gifts he sent, he knew that he was here to play games.
Jiuyou Black Stone? That’s just the rocks that can be seen everywhere on Jiuyou Mountain! Even if there is a certain amount of spiritual energy in it, it can’t change the fact that this thing is basically worthless.
With Xin Ruxiong’s move, he was short of putting the word “causing trouble” into a flag and raising it on the carriage openly.
Seeing this, Xiao Ruoyao couldn’t help but reveal a murderous look. She said coldly, “It seems that Jiuyou Sacred Land has had enough good times!”
Lin Fengtian smiled lightly and said, “The more arrogant this Nine Nether Sacred Land behaves, the more it proves the truth of the rumors. Tao Yan, I’m afraid his time is really numbered!”
Feng Shao’s face did not change, and he was smiling from the beginning to the end as if he was not aware of Xin Ruxiong’s provocation at all.
A black-clothed cultivator quickly came to the square, and said loudly, “City Lord Feng, this is a congratulatory gift from my holy son, please accept it!”
As he said that, the cultivator in black raised his hand, and a pile of large and small black stones was thrown to the ground.
A stone of a hundred catties is not much. Throwing it so scattered on the ground is more like scattering garbage than giving gifts.
And the cultivator in black, after throwing these stones, held his head high and looked at Feng Shao proudly, eyes revealing a provocative look. That look seemed to be saying, “We just use these rubbish as gifts, what can you do with me?”
When the guests saw this scene, they all showed playfulness. They really wanted to know how Feng Shao and Yunjian Pavilion planned to deal with such a provocation.
If he is too soft, he will appear weak and can be bullied; if he is too hard, it will appear that he is bullying others. After all, Feng Shao is the host, if he sent the guest back without saying anything, even if he was reasonable, he would appear rude.
Under everyone’s curious eyes, Feng Shao smiled and said, “Thanks to Jiuyou holy son for being so polite and giving such a great gift! Come on, put the congratulatory gift of Jiuyou holy son in the most prominent position. It must be seen by everyone!”
Zuo Linglan understood and immediately arranged for someone to throw the black stone fragments at the gate of the square. Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene.
Zuo Linglan’s move really put the “gift” of Jiuyou Sacred Land in the most prominent position. It’s just that the way of transferring it is a bit like taking out the trash…
Seeing this, Leng Lingyue couldn’t help laughing, and said in a low voice, “This little guy is quite talented!”
