I have a relic of heaven

Chapter 81: Luxurious Banquet, Echoes from Tushita Palace

"My Lord, so early?"

Yang Niannian, who was covered in dust, handed over the reins.

Zhou Mu got on the carriage, took the reins, and said with a smile:
"I'm going to a small party on Sixth Street. It's far away, so I'll leave early. Have you gone to visit your mother?"

"Yes."

Yang Niannian yawned, obviously not awake yet:
"My mother is still the same, always worried. I have to go back twice in two days. She seems to have a cold. Please leave quickly so I can go back and catch up on my sleep!"

"Go, go, go."

Zhou Mu nodded and waved the reins. Xiaobai let out a roar and pulled the black wooden chariot away at a rapid speed.

Riding on the morning sun, Zhou Mu drove through one long street after another. When passing North 15th Street, he deliberately looked at the large courtyard house of Nonghuotang and listened attentively.

It was much quieter inside, and the heartbeats were several times quieter.

In the past four days, Zhou Mu had been hunting down monsters from the Fire Hall. He was a man who held grudges. If it weren't for the recent strict inspections in the North District,
He had already killed that old demon long ago.

There are many talismans in that ancient building. I just wonder if there are any Qigong instruments.

Arrived at Fifth Street.

Many dog sedan chairs were parked outside the mansion where the banquet was held. North Fifty-seventh Street was fifty-two blocks away from here.

Although Zhou Mu went out early in the morning, it was almost noon now.

Two maids waiting outside the door came to greet us.
He got off the black wooden sedan chair and handed the reins to the maid who greeted him respectfully. Another maid bowed and said directly without even looking at the invitation:
"Master Zhou, please follow me."

Zhou Mu had never seen this little maid before, but she was able to recognize the "unknown" Zhou Mu at a glance.
It was probably because the senior sister took me to visit 17 grandmasters’ residences.

The two walked into the mansion, and Zhou Mu asked casually:

"How many guests are coming to this small banquet?"

"To answer your Excellency, it is a lot."

The maid, who looked like a beautiful girl, replied:

"This year's North District Banquet is a little different. All warriors can participate, so there are a lot of guests coming."

"Oh?" Zhou Mu asked curiously as he walked to the door, "Isn't it too late for me?"

"It's not too late. The banquet doesn't start until noon, but most of the guests are like you, sir, and they arrived early."

The little maid smiled and pushed open the door, leading Zhou Mu along the jade-carved slabs through the bamboo forest and peach garden.

Although it was late autumn or early winter, the owner of the mansion had somehow managed to keep the peach trees in bloom and bearing fruit.
And next to each of the blooming peach trees, there is a young girl wearing gauze, dancing gracefully. When the autumn and winter wind blows, the gauze flutters, and the delicate skin is faintly visible.

Zhou Mu was a little stunned - not because of lust, but because he was shocked by the extravagance here.

This is a breeding area, a human circle!

He didn't know what to say.

When the maid saw Zhou Mu stop, she also paused and lowered her head and said:

"Sir, there is a separate hot spring in the backyard, and there are many private houses on the left. If you have a dancer you like, I can take her there and let her serve you."

"No."

Zhou Mu was in a complicated mood and asked:
"This is my first time here. Who is the owner of this mansion?"

"The head of the family, Xu Chengwu."

"Oh."

Zhou Mu was thoughtful. When he visited the Seventeenth Grandmaster, the eldest sister once mentioned that there was another Grandmaster Xu Chengwu in the North District.
But she didn't visit him at that time - this Grandmaster Xu didn't have any property in the North District, but he had a "close" relationship with the monsters. It was said that he was the slave who managed the real monster in the North District, and the eldest sister looked down on him.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head.

Just at this moment, there was a noise not far away. Zhou Mu looked sideways.

He was a rough man over two meters tall, full of energy and blood, and he looked like a master.
At this moment, he broke into Taoyuan, held three or four young dancers in each of his two big hands, and tore open the tulle without any scruples, grabbing and kneading them with his big hands.
One of the weaker dancers was 'touched' and coughed up blood, leaving black marks on her delicate skin, and one could almost hear the sound of bones cracking.

The rough man laughed and said:
"Even with these few, let's stick to the old rules. Prepare a bigger house for me. I just love playing in the water here with Old Xu!"

There was a slight commotion in Taoyuan. Several beautiful maids went to greet the rough man, but the rough man glanced at them:
"You guys are good too, come along!"

The maids were frightened when they saw this 2-meter-tall burly man, but they dared not disobey him and bowed with grievance.

The maid next to Zhou Mu also turned pale. She unconsciously moved her feet and hid half of her body behind Zhou Mu, trying to make herself less conspicuous. At the same time, she explained to Zhou Mu in a low voice:

"This is Grandmaster Wang from the East District, an old friend of my master."

Her voice was trembling, with a sense of grief, obviously knowing the tragic end of those maids and dancers.

In previous years, every time Master Wang saw mandarin ducks playing in the water, more than ten people would die tragically.

Zhou Mu frowned slightly, shook his head, and was about to leave, but the burly man looked over here, his eyes fixed on the little maid, and his eyes lit up.

"Little brother stay!"

The burly man strode over, the jade brick floor rumbling under his feet, and patted Zhou Mu's shoulder heroically:

"This girl is pretty. You don't know her, is this your first time here? Why don't you ask someone else to lead the way for you? Let me take this girl and play in the water with her!"

The little maid's eyes turned red and she was about to cry. She looked at Zhou Mu in panic.

Zhou Mu glanced at her, waved his hand and shook his head:
"No need, Grandmaster Wang."

The burly man was startled, looked Zhou Mu up and down for a moment, and said with a hearty smile:

"Young brother, do you know me? Then I can't take someone else's love away. So, who are you from, young brother?"

"Taibai Martial Arts School."

"Really?" The burly man recalled briefly but gained nothing - he had been staying in the East District for many years and didn't know much about Taibai Martial Arts School.

But thinking back to the solid feeling he had when he patted the young man's shoulder, he still smiled heroically despite feeling a little unhappy:
"What's your name, little brother? If you come to visit the East District, I can treat you to a meal, right?" "No need, Grandmaster Wang."

Zhou Mu repeated it calmly, and then nodded to the little maid beside him:

"Keep leading the way."

The little maid nodded hurriedly and almost trotted to lead the way. Zhou Mu also left without even looking at the rude man.

The latter's expression was gloomy for a moment, then he smiled as if not concerned, and walked in another direction with the dancers and maids.

"He didn't cause me any trouble." Zhou Mu thought to himself, feeling a little regretful. He was still waiting for the rude man to get furious so that he could beat him to death.

After taking two steps, he thought of the desperate looks of the maids and dancers, and thought that this was a breeding area and a human circle, and he felt very uncomfortable.

Zhou Mu thought of his senior sister again.

He stopped, pondered for a moment under the maid's puzzled gaze, then turned around and caught up.

"Grandmaster Wang."

"Oh? Little brother? What's the matter? Do you want to play in the water with me?" The burly man frowned, then smiled in a heroic manner.

"Master Wang, can you pat my shoulder again?"

The burly man was confused. What's this kid up to?
Never seen it before?
Suppressing his anger, he put on a forced smile and gently patted Zhou Mu's shoulder.

The next moment.

"hiss!!"

Zhou Mu was struck by lightning. He bent over in pain, stroking his shoulder, and kicked forward:

"Why did you attack me?!"

The burly man didn't react in time, and was lightly kicked in the chest and abdomen. He was stunned, and felt an unparalleled force penetrate into him, breaking his tendons and bones.

His head went dark and he flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, breaking several peach trees. He coughed up blood, was severely injured, and passed out.

"Comfortable."

Zhou Mu's anger faded away, and under the blank gazes of some passing guests, maids, and dancers,
She looked in pain just a second ago, but now she turned around as if nothing had happened, walked to the maid, and said gently:

"Keep leading the way."

The little maid was at a loss, and led the way in a timid manner, and the two of them went away.

"It's him?"

A little further away, a group of people stared at this scene, and Luo Shuangyu narrowed her eyes slightly:
"I kicked the Great Medicine Master unconscious. I made a mistake when we were in the East District."

She recognized Zhou Mu as a friend of the restaurant owner in the East District.

"Sister Luo, let's make contact and take her under your wing?"

"Okay, as soon as possible."

Luo Shuangyu nodded and said:

"It's not advisable to stay here for long. I received news that a real demon may have come to this banquet and is suspected of capturing geniuses to feed on. Let's see if there are other good seedlings and take them away."

"Yes." The long-haired young man nodded and asked, "What if someone doesn't want to join Buzhou? For example, that guy just now looked like he had a bad temper."

Luo Shuangyu raised her eyelids:

"If you don't want to, forget it."

"If there are really people who don't want to, should we remind them to leave the banquet as soon as possible?"

"Don't do anything that is irrelevant."

"I understand, Sister Luo."

………………

at this time.

Millions of miles away.

The powerful demon with silver horns on his head stared in the direction of Quanjue City, motionless.

Venerable Silver Horn was uneasy and hesitant. He stood still and was reluctant to continue walking towards the border town.

Whenever he looked at the small town a million miles away but within a step,
He can hear it.

I could hear the sound of wind created by the palm-leaf fan, the roaring fire under the Bagua stove, and the whispers between myself and my brother.

Yinjiao knew that this was an auditory hallucination, and it could only be an auditory hallucination - but even though his realm had dropped two levels, he was still a powerful person, so how could he be hallucinating?

Is this the master's suggestion?

If we go a step further and issue this extermination order and kill that dog, there will be no turning back.

This is not an ordinary dog, this is the dog praised by the one in Yuxu Palace!

But the brother is still trapped.
The Southern Demon King is a complete reckless man who has no sense of reverence at all and dares to kill!
But once you die, you can never go back.

"Master, my brother and I know we are wrong. We want to go back. We want to go back."

"Master, where are you?"

"master"

Venerable Silver Horn burst into tears. The last time he cried so miserably was when he was beaten up by that damn monkey.

He cried and sat down, not daring to move forward or backward.

He closed his eyes and listened quietly to the echo of Tushita Palace.
