Shenwu Yutianlei
Chapter 153 Celebration Banquet
"Next," Huo Jingtian said slowly with a serious expression, scanning everyone with dignified eyes, "You have ten days to say goodbye to your families.
During these ten days, you can spend time with your family, talk about everything in your heart, and cherish this precious time.
Ten days later, gather at the City Lord's Mansion, and then follow me to the imperial capital, Liuyun City. Remember, don't waste time." Huo Jingtian's voice was steady and powerful, clearly reaching everyone's ears.
After saying these words, Huo Jingtian said no more. He turned around, his figure tall and majestic.
He just lifted his feet lightly, and each step seemed to carry a special rhythm. In just a blink of an eye, his figure gradually went away, until finally disappeared from everyone's sight.
At this time, everyone at the scene was still immersed in Huo Jingtian's words. They felt both excitement and anticipation about going to a new place, as well as reluctance and attachment to parting with their families.
Ten days is neither long nor short, but for them, this may be the last precious time they spend with their family.
Liuyun City is far away from Liucheng. Normally, according to Feiying Xiongma's speed, it would take about half a month just to make a one-way trip. And this is just under the most ideal circumstances. In fact, it does not take into account the various dangers that may be encountered along the way.
For example, there are those elusive cultivators; and for example, there are those powerful monsters that roam in the wild mountains and wilderness. They are ferocious and brutal, and extremely aggressive. Once you encounter them, you will likely fall into an extremely dangerous situation.
At this moment, the Shen Mansion was bustling with activity, and a grand banquet was being held. The entire Shen Mansion was decorated with lights and colors, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere. In the wide courtyard, there were exquisite tables and chairs, and the tables were filled with rich delicacies and fine wines. All the representatives of the big and small forces that were attached to the Shen family had arrived at this moment. Some of them were family leaders from nearby cities, some were gang leaders, and some were shopkeepers of some businesses. These people either came with a large number of followers or came alone, but without exception, each of them had a respectful and flattering expression on their faces.
After they entered the Shen Mansion one by one, they sat down in the corresponding positions according to their identities and status. Then, they presented the generous gifts they had carefully prepared. These generous gifts were varied, including precious medicinal materials, rare gems, priceless magic weapons, and some were secret books passed down from their families. Each gift represented their respect and flattery for the Shen family, and also showed their determination to continue to maintain a good relationship with the Shen family. The entire Shen Mansion was filled with a strong atmosphere of celebration and peace. People talked to their heart's content in this joyful atmosphere and enjoyed this rare feast.
At this moment, the representatives of the big and small forces that were attached to the Shen family were extremely glad that their family had made the wise decision to attach themselves to the Shen family early on. They looked at the scene of celebration in front of them, recalled the past, and were filled with emotion.
Looking back, they had hesitated and worried when they made the decision to rely on the Shen family. But now it seems that this is undoubtedly the most correct choice. This time, Shen Yun successfully obtained the admission qualification of the inner disciple of the Royal Academy under the attention of everyone. This major news exploded in their hearts like thunder. They knew what this meant. To a large extent, it indicated that in the near future, the Shen family would undergo earth-shaking changes because of Shen Yun's rise.
As Shen Yun continues to grow and progress in the Royal Academy, the Shen family is very likely to cultivate a Jindan master. Once there is a Jindan master, the Shen family will naturally become a Jindan family, and its status and influence will reach unprecedented heights. In the entire Liucheng, the family with a Jindan master will be the undisputed overlord, and no force can compete with it. By then, the forces that are attached to the Shen family will also rise with the tide and gain more benefits and opportunities. Thinking of this, their hearts are full of expectations and excitement, and at the same time, they are more determined to continue to stick to the Shen family, hoping to witness the glorious future with the Shen family.
Shen Jingyuan sat steadily at the head of the table, his face ruddy, his eyes sparkling with joy. At this moment, he was enjoying the atmosphere of the celebration. He raised the glasses of wine in his hand one after another, and drank them all. Whenever someone came to toast, he would drink a glass with them without hesitation. This was not to say that he, the head of the Shen family, was usually not arrogant, but that he was just too happy at the moment.
Recalling the past, he could not help but feel a lot of emotion. According to the history of the Shen family, the last time the Shen family was so lively was many years ago. At that time, after countless efforts and struggles, the Shen family finally succeeded in becoming one of the four major families in Liucheng. At that moment of celebration, the entire Shen Mansion was also so lively, and people laughed and celebrated the brilliant achievements of the Shen family.
Now, Shen Yun has obtained the qualification to become an inner disciple of the Royal Academy, which is undoubtedly an important opportunity for the Shen family to reach a higher peak. This good news made Shen Jingyuan's joy in his heart indescribable. He seemed to see a brighter future for the Shen family. Therefore, at this moment of celebration, he completely put aside his usual dignity and airs as the patriarch, and shared this joy and happiness with everyone. He knew that this was an important milestone for the Shen family, and it was also the source of motivation and confidence for him to lead the Shen family forward.
At this moment, Shen Yun was surrounded by people like a moon surrounded by stars. Around him, people who were familiar or unfamiliar to him on weekdays came out like a tide. They smiled and rushed to speak, telling about their so-called origins with Shen Yun, whether true or false. Some people said that they had met Shen Yun once, while others exaggeratedly described some past interactions that did not exist at all. All kinds of words came like a tide.
At this moment, the butler hurriedly walked to the side of Shen Jingyuan, then bowed slightly and reported respectfully: "Patriarch, the city lord is here, and with him comes Lord Huo Jingtian who came from the imperial capital. I have arranged for them to have tea in the VIP room."
When Shen Jingyuan heard this, the expression on his face instantly became serious and solemn. He quickly stood up, with a hint of urgency in his movements, and said, "Well done. I'll go right away." As he said that, he made a gesture to leave.
At this moment, he caught a glimpse of Shen Yun, who looked helpless. Shen Jingyuan thought for a moment, then said, "Yun'er, come with me. I have something to talk to you about." After that, he raised his foot and walked forward without waiting for Shen Yun's response.
Shen Yun breathed a sigh of relief, then squeezed out of the crowd and quickly followed Shen Jingyuan's footsteps. Seeing this, the people around him also tactfully made way. They knew that what was going to happen next might not be something they could participate in, so they could only watch the backs of Shen Jingyuan and Shen Yun leaving, their hearts filled with curiosity and expectation.
