Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

At dusk the next day, the chariot of the third prince's government office arrived outside the manor on time. Bai Yifei, Qin Yao and others boarded the chariot and went to attend the third prince's banquet.

Since the Tianshui Sect began ten thousand years ago, it has not participated in gatherings, competitions, or discussions organized by any force...

In short, since ten thousand years ago, Tianshui Sect has been in a state of sealing off the mountain gate.

And this time, accepting the third prince's invitation was also the first time that the Tianshui Sect accepted an invitation in ten thousand years.

Bai Yifei, the Five Immortals of Dongdao, Zhou Xinjun, Qin Yao, Qiao Mo and others were all excited. After all, it was a blessing to be able to sit at the same table as the other saints and saints from the five families and seven sects.

In front of the yamen of the Third Prince's Mansion, there was an endless stream of cars and carriages. Saints, saints, saints and outstanding disciples from five families and seven sects came to the dojo one after another.

In the yamen, the maids and servants are busy, the musicians are playing melodious music, the dancers are twisting their beautiful and charming waists, and the kitchen is cooking delicious and tempting dishes, it feels like a prosperous world.

When Bai Yifei, Qin Yao and others came here, they couldn't help but feel nervous and carefully watched every move around them.

The Tianshui Sect disciples seemed a little cautious.

The servants in the Third Prince's Mansion took the Tianshui Sect disciples to the banquet hall.

The banquet was held in the back garden of the Third Prince's Mansion. There was a huge water pavilion that could seat thousands of people.

At this moment, in this water pavilion, the thirteen pavilions are illuminated by candlelight, as if it were daytime.

On each pavilion, there is a wooden sign with the names of the five families and seven sects written on it.

The servants in the government office brought the Tianshui Sect disciples to the small pavilion belonging to the Tianshui Sect.

After many disciples sat down, they found that thirteen pavilions formed a circle, and in the middle of the circle, there was a huge round platform, on which a dancer was dancing gracefully.

Servants shuttled back and forth between the thirteen pavilions, delivering a dazzling array of delicacies to each pavilion.

The Tianshui Sect disciples were obviously the first to arrive. Among the thirteen pavilions, only the Tianshui Sect was the first to take a seat.

The other sect disciples have not arrived yet.

Slowly, until the sun set, disciples from five families and seven sects arrived at the banquet one after another.

Wentian Sect, Tiandimen, Danxia Sect, Zhao family, Qian family, Li family, Sun family, Chen family...etc., five families and seven sects gathered together.

Chen Yule, the holy son of the Chen family, accompanied Chen Yun to the pavilion belonging to the Chen family.

Accompanying him were dozens of outstanding disciples of the Chen family, such as Chen Molin and others.

"Why didn't you see Lin Bai?"

Chen Yun frowned and asked in confusion.

Chen Yule was also full of doubts. The third prince invited saints and saints from five families and seven sects to gather together. Lin Bai shouldn't be unaware of such a big news.

Bai Yifei felt Chen Yule's gaze and immediately stood up with a smile and bowed his hands.

Chen Yule asked, "Where's Brother Lin? Why haven't you arrived yet?"

When Bai Yifei heard Chen Yule ask about Lin Bai's whereabouts, he suddenly looked unhappy and sneered: "My junior brother Lin Bai has a high heart. He probably thinks that everyone here is not worthy of sitting with him, so he won't come. .”

Bai Yifei's words undoubtedly brought Lin Bai to the forefront.

The warriors here are all famous genius disciples in the Chu Kingdom. They are either the saints and saints of the five families and seven sects, or they are outstanding disciples of the five families and seven sects.

It is no exaggeration to say that these people will be the leaders in Chu State in the future.

Bai Yifei said "Lin Bai feels that you are not worthy to sit with him", which made Lin Bai offend all five families and seven sects.

Qiao Mo's pretty face was cold, and she hurriedly said to the Holy Son of the Chen Family: "Sir, Junior Brother Lin Bai has some problems with his practice and is still in seclusion, so it is inconvenient to attend today's banquet."

Chen Yule nodded slightly, then sat down with Chen Yun without saying anything else.

Chen Yun pouted and said, "The grievances between Bai Yifei and Lin Bai seem to be quite deep?"

Chen Yule sneered: "Bai Yifei is just a clown, nothing to be afraid of. If Lin Bai wants to deal with him, one sword is enough."

The saints and saints from the five families and seven sects are here. They are all old friends whom they have not seen for many years, so they are quite happy to get together.

People gathered together in twos and threes and chatted.

Even before the banquet started, it was already very lively.

At this time.

The third prince came belatedly and walked into the main pavilion.

Following the third prince, there were more than a dozen warriors, all of whom had powerful auras.

As the third prince sat down, the dozen or so warriors sat behind him.

"I have met His Highness the Third Prince!"

The saints and saints from the five families and seven sects stood up one after another and bowed with their hands in hand.

The third prince laughed: "You don't have to be polite. We are all old friends we haven't seen for many years. We happen to be in the imperial capital today, so I want to get everyone together to catch up with each other."

"No need to be formal, just treat yourself as if you were going back to your own home. Eat and drink well."

"Everybody sit down, everybody sit down."

"Come here, serve the wine."

The third prince exchanged a few pleasantries and ordered the wine to be served.

As the most powerful prince in the dynasty, the wine in the third prince's mansion is naturally the best in the Chu Kingdom.

A jar of fine wine was carried into the pavilion, and a special maid served the wine in the pavilion.

The third prince enthusiastically picked up the wine glass and drank it with the saints and saints from the five families and seven sects.

The banquet was in full swing, and while they were talking to each other, the third prince looked towards the Tianshui Sect's pavilion intentionally or unintentionally.

But it seemed that Lin Bai was nowhere to be found.

Although the third prince had never met Lin Bai, he had seen the portrait.

The painters of the Tianji Pavilion of Chu State are all very skilled at painting dead objects, let alone a person.

According to the portrait, the third prince found no trace of Lin Bai in the Tianshui Sect Pavilion.

Although the saints and saints of the five families and seven sects are like leaders within their respective families and sects, they are obviously still a little reserved in front of the third prince.

After three rounds of wine, the five flavors of food are gone.

The third prince looked slightly drunk and said with a smile: "It's boring to sit around like this!"

"The state of Chu was founded by force and governed by law."

"When I was young, Your Highness also led the army to conquer the north and south. I really like to compete with others."

"All of you sitting here today are all famous young talents in the Chu Kingdom. Why don't we use martial arts to make friends? What do you think?"

Royal banquets, literary competitions, and martial arts competitions are commonplace.

The moment the disciples of the five families and seven sects were invited to the third prince's banquet, they all knew that there would be a martial arts competition.

But usually, the saints and saints of the five families and seven sects would not take action easily. After all, once warriors at the level of saints fight, without the protection of a strong person, it is easy to lose control and cause great power.

For example, in the battle between Lin Bai and Chen Yule in Fengling City, if dozens of Taiyi Daoguo masters had not raised their hands to suppress it, Lin Bai's Green Lotus Sword Intent and Chen Yule's Killing Sword Intent would have defeated Feng Ling. Lingcheng was razed to the ground.

Therefore, this martial arts competition will most likely be between outstanding disciples from the five families and seven sects.

The third prince smiled and said: "Of course, since it was proposed by His Highness, I will not let you do it in vain. Regardless of the outcome of the competition, Your Highness will have a generous gift."
