Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

Those sitting at the same table as Lü Zhen were basically the most distinguished guests at this birthday banquet.

However, Lü Zhen arranged for Xu Qingzhou to be placed on his side, which shows how much he values ​​Xu Qingzhou.

Lü Zhen's enthusiasm left everyone present stunned.

They looked at each other, their faces full of confusion.

Even when facing Wu Wendong, a direct disciple of the Seven Star Sect, Lu Zhen wasn't this warm and hospitable.

Anyone who didn't know better would think that royalty had arrived.

"Am I seeing things? City Lord Lü actually came forward to greet him personally. Who is this person? Is he sure it's the Xu family of Yunshan City, and not the Xu family of the capital?"

"He's only at the mid-stage of the Profound Core Realm, hardly a strong expert. Could he have some powerful background?"

"But Yunshan City is just a remote little town. What kind of background could a family from such a place have?"

Xu Qingzhou instantly became the focus of attention, and his identity sparked much discussion and curiosity among the attendees.

As the city lord of Yunshan City, Ji Dongfang naturally received an invitation and came to the event. At the same table with him were mostly city lords from various cities in Liangbei County.

When he heard the whispers of those around him, he was filled with sarcasm.

"What a bunch of frogs in a well! They can't even recognize a real dragon right in front of them."

At this moment, the city lord spoke up and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ji, aren't you the city lord of Yunshan City? What exactly is the background of this Xu family?"

"Yes, what kind of background does he have that makes Lord Lü treat him like this? Brother Ji, please tell me."

He noticed that everyone's eyes were on him.

Ji Dongfang was quite pleased with himself. Yunshan City was small and weak, and these snobs usually didn't even give him a second glance, but now they were all flocking to him.

He straightened his back and leisurely sipped the spiritual tea.

"The Xu family is currently enjoying great success, and it's truly unacceptable that you all know nothing about it."

Faced with his teasing, the group gave an awkward smile.

Ji Dongfang said solemnly, "Half a year ago, during the Lingyue Sect's entrance examination, a talented young man from the Xu family was directly accepted as a disciple by the Lingyue Sect's Supreme Elder, Su Xin."

hiss! !

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.

Being directly accepted as a disciple by the Supreme Elder during the entrance examination is unheard of.

Even Lu Zhen's grandson, Lu Chenlong, who possessed a spiritual body, was only accepted as a disciple by an inner sect elder.

Xu Muge was directly accepted as a disciple by the Supreme Elder, and the most important thing is that he was Su Xin, the most famous and strongest among the Supreme Elders, which is even more remarkable.

Judging from this, his physique and talent are definitely better than Lü Chenlong's, or even the most outstanding talents of the Lingyue Sect throughout history.

"No wonder Lord Lü was so enthusiastic, even Wu Wendong of the Seven Star Sect was left out in the cold."

"There's another point. Lu Chengzhu's grandson, Lu Chenlong, also joined the Lingyue Sect half a year ago. He probably wants the Xu family's talented young men to take care of Lu Chenlong, which is why he's being so enthusiastic."

"Makes sense."

Gradually, news of Xu Qingzhou spread throughout the banquet.

The guests who had looked down on Xu Qingzhou just moments ago were now all thinking about how to get closer to him later.

Wu Wendong was also sizing up Xu Qingzhou, with a hint of displeasure on his face.

As a direct disciple of the Seven Stars Sect and the current sect leader's apprentice, it was already an honor for me to attend Lü Zhen's birthday banquet.

He felt that he was the most distinguished person present, and that everyone's attention should be on him.

Unexpectedly, the sudden appearance of Xu Qingzhou, whom he had never heard of before, made Lü Zhen take him so seriously, even leaving him out in the cold.

This made Wu Wendong dissatisfied.

Just as he was about to ask Xu Qingzhou about his identity.

Lu Zhen suddenly waved his hand to the side, and a handsome young man walked over.

"This is my worthless grandson. He joined the Lingyue Sect half a year ago along with your Xu family's prodigy."

Xu Qingzhou replied, "I was at the Lingyue Sect's mountain gate at the time and saw this child. He is indeed outstanding. City Lord Lü has a worthy successor."

Although he knew Xu Qingzhou was just being polite, Lü Zhen was still quite happy to hear someone praise his proud grandson.

Unexpectedly, Lü Chenlong said, "Senior, you flatter me. Compared to Senior Brother Xu Muge, I am but a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning."

"That kid isn't nearly as outstanding as you say," Xu Qingzhou replied modestly, waving his hand.

Lu Chenlong said, "A few days ago, in the outer sect competition, Senior Brother Xu, who was in the late stage of Qi Gathering, easily won first place with a crushing victory. You should know that the senior brothers who participated in the outer sect competition had basically been in the sect for two or three years."

"Therefore, Senior Brother Xu is the only one in the history of Lingyue Sect to have achieved the top ranking among the outer disciples within just six months of joining the sect."

"Nowadays, everyone in the Lingyue Sect knows the name Senior Brother Xu."

Lu Chenlong returned early to celebrate his grandfather Lu Zhen's birthday and told Lu Zhen about this, which is why Lu Zhen sent an invitation to Xu Qingzhou, whom he had no connection with at all.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding area erupted in uproar, everyone utterly astonished.

He reached the late stage of Qi Gathering in just six months and even became the top disciple in the outer sect?

This talent is just too outrageous!!!

Xu Qingzhou's talent is considered slightly above average, exceeding 70% of ordinary cultivators. Back then, he spent one year tempering his body and three years gathering his qi.

Compared to Xu Muge, he was worlds apart.

As for Lü Chenlong, who possesses a spiritual body, he is indeed much stronger than Xu Qingzhou back then, but he is not comparable to Xu Muge. He is only at the late stage of Body Tempering and is not even qualified to participate in the outer sect competition.

Therefore, the value of the six-month Qi gathering period is evident.

At this moment, everyone finally understood why Lü Zhen had been so hospitable to Xu Qingzhou, completely ignoring Wu Wendong, the direct disciple of the Seven Star Sect.

With such a prodigy emerging from the Xu family, as long as he grows up smoothly, the Xu family will surely become a top family in Liangbei County or even the Great Qi Dynasty.

Lü Zhen cleverly made an appointment beforehand!

That's why he's called the city lord; he's not only well-informed, but also has a broad perspective and is humble enough to not be arrogant.

Xu Qingzhou said in surprise, "He did mention this matter in the letter, but only in one sentence. I didn't expect it to be so powerful."

There was another sentence in Xu Muge's letter.

"I spend most of my time studying martial arts techniques and rarely practice. My master also doesn't allow me to take pills, so he tells me to control my realm advancement and lay a solid foundation."

Goodness, this is under the condition of limited cultivation time, no pills, and controlled improvement speed. If he went all out, how fierce would he be?

The system's assessment of top-tier talent is indeed powerful.

It has even exceeded the comprehension of most cultivators.

It is estimated that even Xu Muge's master, Su Xin, the Supreme Elder of the Lingyue Sect, did not have a complete concept of his talent.
