The Banquet Hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

Gorgeous decorations are hung in the antique carved tower, dozens of wine tables are neatly arranged on both sides of the banquet hall, and a long carpet as bright as roses extends from the gate to several emerald seats on the main seat. On the bar.

Originally, the main seat was occupied by the city lord Luo Qingfeng and his wife Qin Qianrou.

But this time, the number of jade wine tables has increased by two.

The four jade wine tables were arranged horizontally. Apart from Luo Qingfeng and Qin Qianrou, the other two were the Chen family couple who were invited by the city lord to attend the celebration banquet.

Chen Anning and Xiao Nianqing.

As for why Chen Anning was invited, there was no need to explain.

Hundred Flowers City is able to have the luxury of a celebration feast like today, all thanks to Chen Anning's help.

The guests on both sides sat down one by one, most of them were not wearing formal attire, and some of them even came to the banquet in armor and swords around their waists—after all, they were all rough people, They were soldiers guarding Baihua City, and they didn't quite understand the complicated etiquette.

In addition, Luo Qingfeng himself has loose requirements on etiquette, so there is no need to force his subordinates to do troublesome things such as bathing, wearing crowns, and taking off their armor for the sake of those red tapes.

The celebration banquet is to be lively and happy.

"Old Chen, here's a toast to you."

Luo Qingfeng sat beside Chen Anning and raised his wine glass.

Chen Anning didn't say much, and naturally raised his arms to toast with Luo Qingfeng.

The sweet and rich wine flowed in his throat, Luo Qingfeng let out a sigh of relief, and said in a rather emotional tone: "Old Chen, thank you so much this time, although I have taken care of you a lot before, but this time... You have been kind to me and the entire Hundred Flowers City for saving my life."

"I'm also from Hundred Flowers City. If Hundred Flowers City is gone, where can I sleep?" Chen Anning didn't care about it.

Hearing this, Luo Qingfeng first smiled, and then asked: "But... are you sure you want to give up the credit?"

"Why not?"

Chen Anning looked at Luo Qingfeng: "I don't think I can be placed directly on the table now, even if we have mastered the technology of frisbee grenades and bursting true energy arrows, this still can't make people feel at ease .”

"This time is the same as the last Mara tree incident. Just say that this siege was only defended by you using a new magic weapon."

"Speaking of which—"

Qin Qianrou suddenly interjected: "But recently there seems to be rumors [a master craftsman in Baihua City invented a brand-new magic weapon], and after a while, you, Doctor Chen, must still be exposed."

"It can be delayed for a while."

Chen Anning took a sip of his drink and said in a low voice, "Now is not the time to directly face the public."

Many doubts from the past emerged in his mind, and Chen Anning deeply knew that he could not be fully exposed now.

Even if his identity has been known by some people, he can only develop his own strength as fast as possible, and accumulate a force strong enough to resist those external forces before being completely exposed.

As for the credit... that kind of thing should be given directly to Luo Qingfeng.

Money - Chen Anning has a sister-in-law who is an extremely rich woman, so there is no shortage of funds for the time being.

In addition, after a while, the first batch of spiritual plants will be put into alchemy, and the income from elixir will definitely be quite a lot.

Power—He, Chen Anning, wants a hammer power...Anyway, something basically happened, and Lao Luo would rarely refuse to talk to Luo Qingfeng.

Beauty - he already has Xiao Nianqing, how can other rouge and gouache catch Chen Anning's eyes?

To sum up, Chen Anning really didn't really want the so-called credit for defending the city.

If possible, he would like to immediately drop dozens of quick-thinking super geniuses from the sky, preferably at the level of Einstein... But this is a bit of a daydream.

Chen Anning and Luo Qingfeng chatted one after another. Not long after, a long stringed sound suddenly echoed in the hall.

The slender fingers plucked the strings, and the tulle-like clothes let people see the snow-white skin like cream.

The gorgeous-looking woman curled up her bright red lips, skillfully and gracefully fiddled with the guqin in front of her.

The sound of the piano is rippling, and there is a hint of ambiguity.

In the center of the hall, several beautiful women who also wore cool clothes and danced ribbons walked forward slowly, and began to twist their graceful bodies following the sound of the piano.

The waist with Yingying's grip twisted, as if trying to snatch away the souls of all the men present.

The winking eyes flashing with frowns and smiles, accompanied by the beautiful dance steps and the ambiguous sound of the piano, penetrated into the restless hearts of the men.

Chen Anning took a sip of wine and stared at one of the dancers with an inexplicably focused expression.

And Luo Qingfeng was also holding a wine glass, staring at one of the dancers without taking his eyes off it.

next moment.

"hiss--"

"hiss--"

The two gasped in unison at the same time.

Because a certain beauty beside the two of them stretched out his hand at the same time, and dealt a merciless blow to his husband's waist.

Qin Qianrou and Xiao Nian looked at their husband with affectionate smiles.

The two famous ladies in Hundred Flowers City spoke at the same time——

"Does it look good?"

Death question.

Chen Anning and Luo Qingfeng looked at each other, and both saw the wry smile in each other's eyes.

"Cough, no, ma'am..." Luo Qingfeng explained to Qin Qianrou, "Didn't I see an acquaintance here?"

"Oh? Which acquaintance?" Qin Qianrou's eyes turned cold.

"Cough, it's that one..." Luo Qingfeng pointed to one of the dancers, and explained: "Hua Manyue, the owner of the Manyue Yalou, the only heavenly king in our Hundred Flowers City."

Qin Qianrou frowned slightly, and then looked in the direction Luo Qingfeng pointed.

Unsurprisingly, I saw a certain beauty with a particularly outstanding figure, but she was covered with a veil.

"I wasn't there when I was defending the city, but now I'm back." Qin Qianrou curled her lips: "You know her very well?"

"We met once." Luo Qingfeng said with a serious expression: "This time I invited her here to discuss the matter of letting her be stationed in Baihua City. If it can be done, our Baihua City will also have an extra heavenly king. "

Hearing what Luo Qingfeng said, Qin Qianrou's eyes relaxed.

And the other side.

Xiao Nianqing stared deeply at Chen Anning: "What about you? Have you met someone you know?"

"That's true." Chen Anning replied honestly: "Look at the person on the left, doesn't he look like Miss Ye?"

Xiao Nianqing looked in the direction, and as expected, she saw Ye Youran dancing to the music.

Looking at Ye Youran's perfect body that completely crushed him, Xiao Nian's mood was not in the slightest.

"...!!"

Maybe it was because of Xiao Nianqing's gaze, Ye Youran's dancing body trembled suddenly, and her movements almost lost touch with the others.

What's going on?What's wrong with me?Why does Lord Regal stare at me with the kind of eyes that want to make me into a dish...?

Ye Youran was in a daze at the moment, Xiao Nianqing asked sourly: "What do you think of her dancing?"

"Dancing very well." Chen Anning drank another sip of wine, her face flushed a little: "The rhythm is very accurate, and the movements have their own characteristics... What's more, it matches the music very well."

"..."

Xiao Nianqing remained unhappily silent for a while, then whispered: "If it's just this level, I can do it..."

Chen Anning raised her brows slightly after hearing the words, "Really?"

"That's right." Xiao Nianqing looked calm and composed: "It's just dancing, it's not difficult for me."

——Actually, when Ye Youran taught Xiao Nianqing how to dance, Ye Youran almost didn't go crazy.

Xiao Nianqing's understanding of dancing is only slightly better than her understanding of cooking.

Chen Anning took another sip of wine, feeling more drunk.

Regarding Xiao Nianqing's words, he remained silent as if he didn't hear them.

Seeing Chen Anning's silence, Xiao Nianqing felt a little dissatisfied: "If you don't believe me, I can..."

"We'll talk about it later."

Chen Anning suddenly grabbed Xiao Nianqing's hand, and said seriously: "We'll talk about it when we go back."

Xiao Nianqing: "..."

Hearing Chen Aning's words, Xiao Nianqing fell silent.

It's just that the frown and the face full of displeasure showed that she was not in a good mood now.

"cough."

Sensing the icy atmosphere rarely seen in this couple, Luo Qingfeng hastily elbowed Chen Anning: "Old Chen, are you drunk...?"

If he wasn't drunk, with Chen An Ning's temper, he should have coaxed his wife right away.

"It's okay..." Chen Anning shook his hand holding the wine glass, and he continued, "Compared to this..."

He stared at Luo Qingfeng with a slightly dazed look: "Old Luo, you still tell me about those monsters..."

"Have you analyzed anything in the past month?"

253. Messy Just Right (4000 words)

Chen Anning's question was indeed another purpose of his coming to the banquet this time.

He needs to know what those monsters contaminated with the breath of the ancient soul are.

Although Chen Anning already knew through the book of Heavenly Dao before that the bodies of these broken things are actually demon cultivators that everyone in the world shouts and beats, but why are these demon cultivators refined, and where does the ancient soul breath come from? What is the background of Ding Tianyi, the national teacher of the Fire Dynasty? These mysteries are still unsolved.

Facing Chen Anning's question, Luo Qingfeng first glanced at Xiao Nianqing who was silent and pale beside him with a little embarrassment.

Originally, he wanted to say a few words of consolation, but after all, this was Chen An Ning's family affairs, and it was not good for him to intervene too much.

So Luo Qingfeng pondered for a while, and continued following Chen Anning's topic: "We opened up the bodies of those things and examined them carefully. Besides making sure that they were all demon cultivators, we also found something very strange. s things."

"Strange thing?" Chen Anning frowned slightly, feeling that this might be a key clue.

Luo Qingfeng carefully described it to Chen Anning: "That thing is about the size of a human face, with a slender body, pure black in color, and looks like a worm—but I touched its surface, and it is very hard, even with a It's hard for my sword to cut it."
