114: Chapter 114 Meng Qing's Feast at Hongmen: The Purple Family Ancestor and the Feng Family Ancestor

Shenyu Mountain, Forbidden Ground of the Zi Family.

At this moment, two aged figures stood side by side, with a hundred-foot deep dark pool in front of them.

"Brother Zi, have you received this thing?"

One of the old men, with shrewd eyes and surging aura, took out a golden invitation from his bosom and said with a deep gaze.

"Naturally, I have received it. My Zi Family's Saint Son Zi Chen and your Holy Maiden Feng Piaomiao died in the Tomb of the Crescent Moon. Ye Mingyue had originally left Qingyu Pavilion, but now she has suddenly returned, and she even brought the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect with her."

"Now that Meng Qing has sent these two invitations to our two families, I think she intends to establish her power."

The Zi Family Old Ancestor narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Her power... could it be given by the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect?"

The Feng Family Old Ancestor asked tentatively.

"Perhaps. Meng Qing has been suppressed by our two families for too long, held back for too long. Now that she has finally waited for an opportunity, shouldn't she vent her frustrations?"

The Zi Family Old Ancestor said leisurely.

"Then what should we do? I have heard that the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect did not come alone; he is accompanied by powerful Peak Masters."

"Moreover, if we threaten the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect, I fear the Feixian Sect will not let this matter rest."

The Feng Family Old Ancestor said worriedly.

The Zi Family Old Ancestor stood with his hands behind his back, no trace of worry on his face, a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth:

"Rest assured, outsiders cannot interfere in the affairs of my Qingyu Pavilion."

"Is the Feixian Sect very strong? How does it compare to the gods in heaven?"

The Feng Family Old Ancestor was shocked: "Brother Zi, you mean..."

Zi Qianshan sneered: "Meng Qing likes to set up a Hongmen Banquet? Fine, then we will attend this Hongmen Banquet!"

"I want to see who this Hongmen Banquet is really set up for!"

The Feng Family Old Ancestor nodded silently.

He had a premonition that perhaps after this Hongmen Banquet, the power structure of Qingyu Pavilion would be completely rewritten!

...

One week later.

Qingyu Pavilion, in the Banquet Immortal Hall.

Meng Qing sat on the main seat, a flush still lingering on her face, her eyes filled with affection, looking both resentful and coquettish as she couldn't help but glance at the calm and composed Lin Ran beside her.

Knowing today was an important day, yet he still forced her to play those mysterious Dao Companion games.

He really had no sense of propriety at all!

Ye Mingyue sat opposite Lin Ran, feeling somewhat uneasy, looking like she wanted to say something but didn't dare to open her mouth, appearing very cute and naive.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

With a dull sound of footsteps, the first to arrive was the Old Ancestor of the Zhan Family, one of the three great families, named Zhan Youwu, whose cultivation was at the First Heaven of the Great Emperor Realm.

"Senior Zhan, please sit."

For the Zhan Family, which had always remained neutral and never caused any trouble, Meng Qing had some favorable impressions, so her attitude towards Zhan Youwu was quite good.

Zhan Youwu nodded slightly and casually found an empty seat to sit down.

Immediately after, the Zi Family Old Ancestor, Zi Qianshan, and the Feng Family Old Ancestor, Feng Rusheng, arrived together.

Towards these two, Meng Qing's attitude was noticeably much colder: "The two of you, sit."

Zi Qianshan sat down unceremoniously and said coldly: "Pavilion Master, let's get straight to the point. Why did you invite us here today?"

Meng Qing narrowed her eyes and said: "I want to re-appoint Ye Mingyue as Saintess, and she will be the only Saintess."

"In addition, I want to appoint Lin Ran as Saint, also the only Saint."

"Their status will be second only to me and above all of you. I wonder what you think about this?"

Hearing this, the expressions of Zi Qianshan and Feng Rusheng changed drastically, and even Zhan Youwu, who had always remained neutral, had a slight change in expression.

"Absolutely not!"

Zi Qianshan slammed the table and stood up, letting out a low roar.

"Meng Qing, I do not oppose you re-appointing Ye Mingyue as Saintess."

"But what do you mean by appointing Lin Ran as Saint?"

"He is the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect. What is your intention in appointing him as Saint?"

Joking, of course he would not agree to appoint Lin Ran as Saint.

Lin Ran was already the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect. If he joined Qingyu Pavilion and became a Saint, the variables would be too great.

Although he had now found a backer and could fear no Feixian Sect, he did not want to provoke the Feixian Sect for no reason.

Meng Qing extended a finger, leisurely playing with her hair, and said: "Why can't Lin Ran be appointed as Saint?"

"He is an outsider!"

Zi Qianshan roared lowly.

"Mingyue is also an outsider. Why can she be the Saintess?"

Meng Qing asked calmly in return.

How could she not see through Zi Qianshan's little thoughts?

Ye Mingyue could become Saintess because she had no background, so even if she became Saintess, she remained within the controllable range of the Zi and Feng Families.

But Lin Ran was different; he was already the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect, a variable, not within the controllable range of the Zi and Feng Families.

Therefore, Zi Qianshan would not agree to Lin Ran becoming a Saint of Qingyu Pavilion.

"Ye Mingyue... she is different from Lin Ran! In short, if you insist on making Lin Ran a Saint of our Qingyu Pavilion, my Zi Family will be the first to disagree!"

Zi Qianshan said with a gloomy face, angrily.

"My Feng Family also disagrees!"

Feng Rusheng followed up in agreement.

He and the Zi Family were birds of a feather, colluding with each other.

Wherever Zi Qianshan went, he naturally followed along happily.

Lin Ran tilted his head slightly and looked at these two old foxes.

【Ding! Detected that the Host has triggered a new Heavenly Mandate Mission. Please make the following choices!】

【Option 1: Since the Zi Family and Feng Family do not agree, then this Saint position is not needed!】

【Mission: Politely decline Meng Qing's kindness and leave Qingyu Pavilion!】

【Reward: 12,000 destiny points, anger from Meng Qing!】

【Option 2: Scheming and plotting is too brain-consuming. This Son of Heavenly Mandate just wants to "escape"!】

【Mission: Take Meng Qing and Ye Mingyue away and eat the rice bowl personally made by the Pavilion Master and Saintess of Qingyu Pavilion!】

【Reward: 12,000 destiny points, one pair of black silk stockings and one pair of white silk stockings (indestructible, and self-restoring when damaged)】

【Option 3: This Saint position of Qingyu Pavilion, This Son of Heavenly Mandate wants it! Who approves, and who opposes?!】

【Mission: Forcefully seize the Saint position of Qingyu Pavilion!】

【Reward: 12,000 destiny points, True Dragon Egg hatching progress increased by 20%】

"I choose three!"

Lin Ran thought to himself.

In the next second, he slowly stood up, his sharp gaze shooting towards Zi Qianshan and Feng Rusheng.

"The Pavilion Master of this Qingyu Pavilion is Meng Qing. What does it have to do with you whom she wants to appoint as Saint or Saintess?"

"Do you really think Meng Qing called you here today to discuss with you? This is a notification, an order!"

"Besides, although This Holy Son is the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect, I am also very keen on the Saint position of this Qingyu Pavilion."

"Today, I, Lin Ran, will not only be the Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect, but also the Saint of Qingyu Pavilion. Who approves, and who opposes?!"

Looking at the domineering Lin Ran below, a smile bloomed on the corner of Meng Qing's mouth, and her heart felt sweet.

Wasn't Lin Ran's statement a form of strong support for her?!
