178: My son, Wang Teng, has the potential to attain enlightenment!

"Isn't that Lord returning to the Shen Family? Shouldn't everyone be going to Eastern Profound City? Why are they coming here?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked, puzzled.

Xiao Li carefully explained: "Young Miss Mu, you may not know this, but after the Shen Family recalled the five great sequences, it shook the Five Domains. Prodigies of the profound dragon ranking have gathered in Eastern Profound. A few days ago, Eastern Profound sealed the city and stopped accepting outsiders. Without some status in the Five Domains, how could one get in? However, many people still want to see that Lord with their own eyes. Otherwise, wouldn't this be a wasted trip? So, they are lingering in the other four cities, hoping to try their luck..."

"Is that so..." Mu Xiaoxiao immediately understood and couldn't help but sigh. That Lord is truly the heaven of our Eastern Profound, the Young Master of the Shen Family. He hasn't even appeared yet, and he has already caused a sensation across the Five Domains.

Although she also really wanted to go and see, to catch a glimpse of Lord Shen's demeanor, the most important thing right now was to repay her savior!

"Do you think we should find a spot on the second floor? I see the second floor still has..." Xiao Li thought for a moment and said.

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Mu Xiaoxiao's firm tone.

"No!"

"I am hosting distinguished guests. At the very least, it must be in a private room on the fifth floor, with a banquet featuring a few Soul Transformation great demons!"

Are you kidding me!

She had already made the commitment!

If they didn't eat a demon banquet today, where would she put her Face!

Seeing Mu Xiaoxiao's determined attitude, Xiao Li showed a troubled expression. Although he was a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivator, he was nothing in Canglan City. And he was not unaware of Mu Xiaoxiao's status—the own daughter of the Heavenly Wood Pavilion Revered Master—she was not someone he could afford to offend.

After thinking it over, he said: "Young Miss Mu, please wait here for a moment..."

He didn't leave for long before bringing out the burly man from before.

"Young Miss Mu." The burly man cupped his hands and said.

Upon seeing the person arrive, Mu Xiaoxiao immediately cupped her hands in return. It was obvious that the burly man's status was much higher than Xiao Li's.

"Young Miss Mu, how about this? There is still one Mandarin Duck Pavilion on the fifth floor. It can seat two tables of people, and only one table is occupied right now. Why not make do?"

Hearing this, Mu Xiaoxiao thought about it and ultimately had to reluctantly accept.

At least being on the fifth floor was good; after all, only by going up to the fifth floor could one eat a Soul Transformation demon banquet.

Soon.

Mu Xiaoxiao led Shen Nian and Jiang Churan into Lan Yue Tower. One was indifferent, while the other looked somewhat excited, especially when looking at the dazzling array of mountain delicacies and seafood on the tables, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Regarding this, Shen Nian was a bit speechless. If he didn't know the reason for her personality defect, Shen Nian would have thought this was a gluttonous ghost Reincarnation.

Fifth floor. Mandarin Duck Pavilion.

Just as they walked into the pavilion, they heard a man's sarcastic voice ring out.

"Yo." "I wondered who it was. So it's our Canglan City's number one of the younger generation, Young Miss Mu!"

Seeing this, across from the landscape painting screen, sat a table of dashing men and beautiful women dressed in luxurious attire. Judging by their appearance, the oldest was no more than thirty.

The person who spoke sarcastically was the youngest, in his early twenties, wearing a gold-plated robe with a lifelike Sun Moon pattern carved on the back.

"That damned guy!" Mu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth. If she had known she would be sharing a room with him, she would rather have run to the floor below.

The young man wearing the Sun Moon robe was none other than her mortal enemy, the Sun Moon Sect Saint, Ji Bochang!

Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivation!

He was a few years older than her, but his cultivation had left her far behind. Ji Bochang relied on his Revered Master's backing and also, it was rumored, had latched onto the thigh of the Wang Family of the Central Divine Continent. He had an extremely good relationship with Wang Yuan, the younger brother of the famous Young Clan Leader of the Wang Family, who said, "My son Wang Teng has the potential for Dao Integration." This made him arrogant and domineering in Canglan City.

He was also the second person of the younger generation in Canglan City, second only to her own sister, Mu Wanqing, who possessed the Innate Spirit Wood Body.

According to her father's words, her sister would enter the Shen Family to serve Lord Shen in the future; her father had already made this decision before she was even born.

The cause of the conflict between the two was that this Ji Bochang had actually developed crooked thoughts about her sister. In her eyes, it was a toad lusting after swan meat. He wanted to marry her sister, which was naturally rejected by the Heavenly Wood Pavilion, and he was mocked by her, so he had held a grudge ever since.

Over the past two years, Ji Bochang had frequently caused trouble for Mu Xiaoxiao.

But in the current situation, there was no turning back. She could only pretend to be calm, as if she hadn't heard the Yin and Yang sarcastic voice, and led Shen Nian to take their seats.

"Young Master, see what you would like to eat. Don't be polite, order whatever you want." Mu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Shen Nian's gaze swept over the gold-made menu on the table, and he said casually: "You decide."

"Mm-hmm!" Jiang Churan nodded quickly, like a chick pecking at rice, and then grabbed the menu and began to read it carefully.

The next second, her voice came out, and Shen Nian knew he had made a wrong decision.

It left Mu Xiaoxiao with a look of astonishment.

"I want to eat Steamed Spirit Sheep, Steamed White Bear, Steamed Three-Colored Deer Tail, Roasted Golden Duck, Roasted Chicken Demon, Roasted Goose Demon, Braised Pig Demon, Braised Duck Demon, Sauce Chicken Demon..."

"..." Shen Nian rubbed his eyebrows, feeling somewhat helpless. He snatched the menu and said: "Just serve whatever."

"Oh, oh, okay." Mu Xiaoxiao understood and took the menu out.

Beside her, Jiang Churan just sat there, head lowered, not saying a word.

"You ordered so much, you won't be able to finish it." Seeing her sulking appearance, Shen Nian couldn't help but find it funny, and he couldn't help but speak up.

Jiang Churan pouted and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum: "If I can't finish it, I can pack it up. I can eat it tomorrow, and the day after. You have to eat every day..."

Once these words were spoken, Shen Nian fell silent.

This girl, when someone is treating, you really are not polite at all.

And Mu Xiaoxiao, who had returned after ordering the dishes, happened to hear Jiang Churan's muttering and immediately showed a bitter smile. Next time, she would never dare to say anything like "eat whatever you want" again.

Nearby, Ji Bochang, seeing that Mu Xiaoxiao didn't respond, immediately lost interest in mocking her. He then turned his head and looked respectfully at the black-robed youth sitting beside him with his eyes closed.

The black-robed youth had a Face like a knife cut, handsome features, and between his brows, he constantly exuded an air of looking down on all things. A faint Demonic Qi overflowed from his whole body, which was left behind from his long experience on the battlefield killing demons.

And his identity was that Wang Family branch Disciple who was on good terms with Ji Bochang, Wang Yuan.

"Brother Wang, I am really sorry. The building owner wanted me to do him a favor, and it's not easy for me to offend him..." Ji Bochang explained.

The black-robed youth's expression remained unchanged, and his lips moved gently: "No matter. I have seen too many ants, I have become numb to it..."

"Hahaha, Brother Wang is right. ants, they can be seen everywhere. But Brother Wang, why don't you take a look? That woman is really excessively beautiful..."

When these words were spoken, Wang Yuan slightly opened his eyes. His gaze swept over, and he happened to see the scene of ordering food. His eyes lingered on Jiang Churan, which made his expression move.

What a stunning woman!

Seeing Wang Yuan's expression, Ji Bochang's eyes suddenly lit up. Hehe, the good show, is about to begin!
