Dear Lingshi

"Brother Jin!" Hou Xuetong shouted with a smile.

"Haha! This sounds much more friendly. This contains a little gift from big brother, I hope brother Hou won't dislike it." Jin Rong happily took out another Qiankun bag and handed it to Hou Xuetong.

Seeing this, Hou Xuetong was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to accept it or not.

Jin Rong saw Hou Xuetong's expression and naturally knew what he was worried about. He immediately smiled and said, "Brother Hou, don't think too much. There are only a few dozen kilograms of spirit wine in it."

After hearing Jin Rong's words, Hou Xuetong finally felt relieved and put away the Qiankun bag.

"Thank you, Brother Jin."

Jin Rong looked even happier after seeing Hou Xuetong receive the Qiankun bag: "Why should we two brothers thank each other? I will hold a celebration banquet tonight, and you must come to support me then!"

As Jin Rong spoke, he took out four gold-stamped invitations, on which were written the names of Lu Yunsheng, Bai Yushu, Uncle Hu and Hou Xuetong.

Hou Xuetong took the invitation, thought for a moment, and said to Jin Rong a little embarrassedly: "Brother Jin, you don't know that what I do is a little special. I need the consent of the Pavilion Master before I dare to show my face in public."

"It's okay, it's okay! I understand. I was rude just now. It's best that you can come!" Jin Rong said a little embarrassedly.

"Don't worry, Brother Jin. As long as the Pavilion Master allows me to come, I will definitely come." Hou Xuetong promised, patting his chest.

"So good!"

"Okay, then I won't bother Brother Jin anymore." Hou Xuetong stood up and said goodbye to Jin Rong.

"I'll see you off!" Seeing this, Jin Rong did not try to persuade him to stay and quickly stood up to see him off.

After coming out of the City Lord's Mansion, Hou Xuetong strode towards Duobao Pavilion.

After a while, Hou Xuetong arrived at the backyard of Duobao Pavilion. At this time, Lu Yunsheng was practicing the Zhuomi sword technique in the backyard, and Chen Dashi and Che Jianping were also drinking tea at the stone table in the yard.

After seeing Hou Xuetong, Lu Yunsheng asked while practicing swordplay, "Any news from the City Lord's Mansion?"

Hou Xuetong didn't expect that Lu Yunsheng had already guessed his intention, so he immediately said to Lu Yunsheng, "Pavilion Master, the City Lord's Mansion has already completed the task you requested. The time is set for tonight, and the location is outside the South Gate. These are the 20 million low-grade spirit stones that Jin Rong obtained from the four major families."

"Well, outside the South Gate is a good place." Lu Yunsheng replied and continued practicing sword without looking at the Qiankun bag.

"The City Lord's Mansion will hold a celebration party tonight, and General Jin Rong has already delivered the invitations." After Hou Xuetong finished speaking, he took out four gold-stamped invitations.

Lu Yunsheng put away his sword and turned around. He looked at the four invitations on the stone table, raised his eyebrows, and said to Hou Xuetong: "Oh? He also invited you?"

"Yes, but I haven't agreed to him yet. It all depends on the Pavilion Master. Also, this is the spiritual wine that Jin Rong gave to me." While speaking, Hou Xuetong took out a Qiankun bag and handed it to Lu Yunsheng.

Lu Yunsheng didn't take it, but smiled and said, "Just accept what he gives you. And since he has invited you, just go openly. There is nothing to worry about."

"Yes!" Hou Xuetong responded respectfully.

"You and Brother Chen should each take 10 million of these 20 million low-grade spirit stones and use them to reward the brothers below. Everyone has suffered during this period of time in resisting the beast tide. The brothers who died must be properly buried, and those who have relatives who are still alive must be compensated."

"Yes! Master!" Chen Dashi quickly stood up and responded together with Hou Xuetong.

"But it doesn't take so many spirit stones! We in Chixue only have about a thousand people now." Hou Xuetong said hurriedly, and Chen Dashi also nodded quickly.

"You two can do whatever you want. If you have extra spirit stones, you can use them to continue to expand Chixue and the demon hunting team."

"Yes!" The two responded and took the Qiankun bag.

"Things in the city tonight are left to you three. You can't let anyone go!" Lu Yunsheng said in a firm tone.

"Yes! We will definitely complete the task assigned by the Pavilion Master!"

Time soon came to night, and Lu Yunsheng and his four companions arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

Jin Rong was personally at the door to receive them tonight, and he seemed very happy. When he saw Lu Yunsheng and his companions coming, he did not show any abnormality. He exchanged pleasantries like everyone else, and then asked the maid to invite them into the mansion.

As luck would have it, just as Lu Yunsheng and his three companions were about to move, the four family heads came from a distance behind them.

After the four people saw Lu Yunsheng, the newly appointed head of the Wang family immediately smiled and said to Lu Yunsheng: "Lu boy, eat more later."

Lu Yunsheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and immediately understood what this meant. Then he also laughed and said, "Eat more, everyone."

After saying this, Lu Yunsheng led the three of them directly to the City Lord's Mansion.

Not long after, the monks who received the invitation gradually arrived.

The standard of this celebration banquet is much higher than before, but the process is the same as before.

After Jin Rong finished his passionate speech, Lu Yunsheng and the other three enjoyed the food in front of them and chatted to pass the time.

As time passed, the boring banquet finally ended.

People from the four major families also left one after another.

After seeing off the last wave of guests, Jin Rong came to Lu Yunsheng and his companions and said to Lu Yunsheng, "Master, follow me."

Immediately, Lu Yunsheng and his group followed Jin Rong to the south. On the way, Hou Xuetong left the group on the pretext of having something important to do.

When the four of them went out of the south gate and flew not far, they saw the four heads of the four major families leading more than thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators who had been waiting for a long time.

Lu Yunsheng looked around and saw that it was pitch dark. It was a perfect place to kill and rob.

This time, the cultivators from the four major families did not rush to take action after seeing Lu Yunsheng and his group.

Instead, while waiting for Lu Yunsheng and the others to land on the ground, the four family heads came forward with a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators and surrounded Lu Yunsheng and the others.

"What are you going to do?" Lu Yunsheng asked in panic.

The head of the Wang family looked at Lu Yunsheng's panicked expression and laughed, "Haha! Everyone says that you, Pavilion Master Lu, are extremely smart, but I think you are just so-so. What are we going to do? Can't you see it?"

"Stop talking nonsense, Lord City Lord, just take action!" The head of the Jiang family urged from the side.

"Okay!" Jin Rong agreed and directly took out the fiery red flying sword and stabbed it towards Lu Yunsheng.

The four family heads smiled upon seeing this, and as they watched the flying sword about to pierce Lu Yunsheng's body, they became extremely excited and thought: as long as Lu Yunsheng died, the four soul beads would return to their hands, and their threats would be completely eliminated in the future.
