Cultivating Master In City

The smile on Shi Xiaoyong's face became even more pronounced. Now that everyone's gaze was focused on him, everyone was looking at him and Mu Qingya as if they were looking at a beautiful woman that was related to him.

Mu Qingya didn't look too good. She was looking for Zhou Yi in the crowd. Zhou Yi raised his brows. How could he not see that Liu Hong was biased towards Shi Xiaoyong? This was a little difficult to deal with. Zhou Yi also felt a lot of pressure when his future mother-in-law favored other competitors.

Thinking about that, Zhou Yi took out the Jade Pendant he carved himself and prepared to give it to Mu Qingya.

At this moment, the crowd suddenly split apart. Zhou Yi turned around and saw Mu Sheng walking in with two other people.

Everyone at the banquet narrowed their eyes and looked at the old man in the middle, wondering who was this person who wanted Mu Sheng to personally accompany them. The old man had the demeanor of an immortal, wearing a daoist robe, with a white beard and eyebrows, and what was amazing was that although the old man looked old, there wasn't the slightest wrinkle on his face, as if he was middle-aged! As a result, no one was able to determine the old man's age. He seemed to be fifty to sixty years old, or seventy to eighty years old, or even a hundred years old.

Beside the old man was a handsome young man. He was dressed in black and had a slender figure. There was a faint smile on his face. A pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to be able to captivate one's mind. The young man's appearance and the ethereal air he exuded made all the women who were used to seeing beautiful men speechless. They all looked at the young man with eyes full of joy, secretly offering their blessings to him. Even Shi Xiaoyong, who was the most elegant earlier, was at a disadvantage in front of this young man.

Mu Sheng accompanied the two people in from the left. This was the first time he showed an extremely intimate expression. He turned his face towards the old Daoist, who was talking to him, and occasionally smiled in reply. Occasionally, he would stroke his beard and sigh lightly. This made everyone even more curious about the Daoist priest's identity.

At this moment, Mu Zhen also came out. The people at the banquet consciously made a path for him as they looked with respect at this old general who had made a great military achievement.

"Dad, why did you come out?" Mu Sheng said respectfully.

"Haha, esteemed guest, come to visit. This old man will naturally come out to meet you." Mu Zhen stroked his beard and laughed.

"Dad, this is Taoist Yun Xu."

"This handsome young man is Lin Zi of Qi Family, Qi Yang."

Mu Sheng pointed at the two and introduced them.

"Haha, I've long heard of the immortal name of Yun Xu. Today, I've seen him in this world." Mu Zhen said.

The old Daoist laughed and said, "General Mu is too serious. This old Daoist is only a mortal cultivator, not an immortal. Today, my disciple heard that your father's granddaughter is having her birthday here, so he brought his disciple to harass General Mu. I hope General Mu doesn't mind."

"Haha, Sir, your words are too serious." Mu Zhen laughed.

"Hello, Grandpa Mu." The young man nodded and warmly greeted him.

"Hello." Mu Zhen smiled in response as he sized up Qi Yang. Elder Qi's grandson is indeed a dragon amongst men. " Mu Zhen praised.

"Grandpa Mu, you're too kind." Although he was a third generation leader of Qi Family, he did not dare to surpass Mu Zhen who was from the same generation as his grandfather.

"Come on, Cheng, let's have a seat."

"Okay, Dad." Mu Sheng smiled as he agreed. Right now, he didn't look like the head of a province. Instead, he looked like a host greeting guests at home.

Shi Xiaoyong was shocked to see Daoist Yun Xu and Qi Yang sitting together. He didn't know who Daoist Yun Xu was, but he was very clear who Qi Yang was!

The eldest grandson of Yang City's Qi Family! the only heir to the Qi Family that monopolized the entire city! Everyone present were all shocked. Although Daoist Master Yun Xu and Qi Yang did not know about it, they knew about Qi Family!

Since the founding of Qi Family, he had occupied Yang City, and the current patriarch of Qi Family, Qi Daoling, was one of the few old generals of the founding of the Empire. After stabilizing himself, he brought along his Qi Family and took root in Yang City, painstakingly managing it for tens of years.

Under the efforts of Qi Daoling, there was only one sound in the entire Yang City! That was the voice of Qi Family. In Yang City, if one's Qi Family were to say something, no one would dare to say anything.

Therefore, as the successor of Qi Family, Qi Yang's status could be imagined. In fact, it could even be said that none of the young elites present were on par with Qi Yang. He was already on the same level as Mu Sheng.

Shi Xiaoyong's expression immediately turned ugly. Why didn't he hear what Daoist Yun Xu said just now? Qi Yang also heard that Mu Qingya was having a birthday and came over specially. Could it be that he was interested in Mu Qingya as well? Then how was he going to compete? Shi Xiaoyong thought in jealousy. Yang City's Qi Family was a great clan that was comparable even to Mu Family. How could their Shi Family possibly compare to it?

The crowd below the stage also broke out in a flurry of discussion. Qi Yang's identity was gradually revealed. All of a sudden, everyone looked at Mu Qingya with eyes full of envy. The ladies couldn't help but feel annoyed that even Qi Yang, a heaven's pride expert, was here to celebrate Mu Qingya's birthday.

He never thought that today would be such a great surprise. He thought that it would be good enough for there to be a few outstanding youths of Hong City at his daughter's coming of age ceremony, but he didn't expect that the person who was sent by Fang Giant's Qi Family would be the successor to the Qi Family. Moreover, the successor of Qi Family had specially come over to celebrate his daughter's birth. Doesn't this mean that the two families had a chance of marriage?

However, what made Mu Sheng even more happy was not Qi Yang, but this sage-like old Taoist in front of him. Mu Sheng knew that this old Taoist in front of him had a high status. Although he did not hold any official position, he had seen this old Taoist before. If he could befriend him, then Mu Sheng would have the confidence to ascend to the highest positions in his lifetime.

"Little Qi, how's your grandfather's health right now?" Mu Zhen asked Qi Yang with a smile.

Although Qi Yang was only 23 years old, he sat next to a few people who were considered powerful in the world. However, he was not scared at all. His face was calm and his bearing alone was beyond ordinary.

"Thank you for your concern, Grandpa Mu. My grandfather's health is fine. A few days ago, he mentioned you, and said that he would come visit you at Hong City when he had time." Qi Yang said calmly with a friendly tone.

"Haha, that's great! We old guys haven't seen each other in seven or eight years. It's time to find a time to get together, or else we'd be buried in the ground." Mu Zhen laughed.

Daoist Yun Xu sat quietly on his seat and squinted his eyes, as if he was not used to the dazzling lights on the stage.

He always felt that everything in the mortal world would disturb his dao heart. He preferred reading the Dao volume along with the green light, as he did not like living in a modern city. It was also because he was going to leave the mountain this time that his master followed him and practiced for him.

"Qingya, come here little girl. Your big brother Qi Yang has come to see you. Why don't you come and ask him?" Mu Sheng laughed and shouted at Mu Qingya.

Mu Qingya finally found Zhou Yi's figure and was about to walk away when she heard Mu Sheng call for her again. Therefore, Mu Qingya could only pout her lips and walk towards Qi Yang and Mu Sheng unwillingly.

"Hello, big brother Qi Yang." Mu Qingya asked. She had very little memory of Qi Yang, only some vague memories from her childhood. The current Qi Yang was outstanding, but Mu Qingya only had Zhou Yi in her eyes.

"Little Sister Qingya, happy birthday! I didn't expect that the little girl who only knew how to cry back then has now become a great beauty. " Qi Yang said with a smile. His face was full of happiness, and his pair of peach blossom eyes were captivating.

Mu Qingya smiled but didn't say anything. She stood to the side like an obedient girl.

How could he not see that Qi Yang was interested in Mu Qingya, but he couldn't figure out whether Qi Yang was truly interested in the power behind Mu Qingya or not. Logically speaking, Qi Yang was now Daoist Yun Xu's disciple, coupled with Yang City's current status as Qi Family's successor, so it would be rude to say that in this fertile land, Qi Yang could marry any woman he wanted, and it was not limited to Mu Qingya at all.

If it wasn't for Zhou Yi, Mu Zhen would have been willing to help Qi Yang and Mu Qingya. However, Zhou Yi had already helped him a lot, and Zhou Yi had also cured Soong Ci. Most importantly, his grandson's daughter had already promised Zhou Yi. Therefore, Mu Zhen did not think highly of Qi Yang.

"Little Sister Qingya, today is your birthday. Big Brother came in a hurry and didn't prepare any good gifts. This is a little thing on Big Brother's body, I hope you like it." Qi Yang stood up with a smile, took out a Jade Pendant from his robe and walked towards Mu Qingya.

Shi Xiaoyong thought disdainfully as he saw Qi Yang gift a piece of Jade Pendant to Mu Qingya. This piece of Jade Pendant was not that valuable, which weakened Shi Xiaoyong's previous jealousy. The so called Qi Family was only so-so, at least in terms of gifting gifts, it was not as generous as Shi Xiaoyong's.

"Thank you, Brother Qi Yang." Mu Qingya smiled and received the Jade Pendant. However, just as Mu Qingya held the Jade Pendant in her hands, the Jade Pendant in her hands suddenly flickered. A gentle cyan light slowly rose from the Jade Pendant and enveloped Mu Qingya.

This miraculous scene immediately caused everyone at the banquet to cry out in alarm. How could a piece of Jade Pendant cause such a special effect?

Mu Sheng also stood up slightly and squinted his eyes as he looked at the Jade Pendant. A grave expression appeared on his face.

Zhou Yi put down the wine cup in his hand and revealed a weird smile. He didn't expect to see a magical equipment on Mu Qingya's birthday party.

"Little Qi, your Jade Pendant seems to be... "He's not ordinary." Mu Zhen slowly spoke. This scene reminded him of the miraculous method that Zhou Yi used to create the Ancient Tree of the Void that he saw at home.

"Qi Yang, you must be careful. This gift is not something that can be accepted by Ya." Mu Sheng also opened his mouth and said as he looked at Mu Qingya who was wrapped in light.

Everyone in the audience was puzzled. They wondered what Qi Yang had given to Governor Mu that made him have such a thought.
