Chapter 116 Sending Off the Dead
"It's the Yunlan Sect! I didn't expect even they to come!"
"The Mo family really has a lot of influence; I never expected they could actually invite someone from the Yunlan Sect."
"Furthermore, judging from the number of sword patterns on that girl's body, she should be a core disciple. At such a young age, only Nalan Yanran, the personal disciple of the Yunlan Sect Master, possesses the strength of a Battle Master!"
In an instant, everyone present was abuzz with excitement. To have the Yunlan Sect Master personally send a disciple here was truly an honor for the Mo family.
The arrival of the Yunlan Sect members brought great honor to the Mo family.
Upon arriving at the gate, Nalan Yanran and the other disciples dismounted. Nalan Yanran remained indifferent and showed no intention of speaking.
Instead, an old man standing next to her stepped forward. Xiao Yan recognized him; he was Ge Ye, the Yunlan Sect steward who had gone to the Xiao family with Nalan Yanran.
In the nearly two years that have passed, he has advanced from a seven-star Grand Dou Master to a two-star Dou Spirit.
Of course, this is based on the cultivation of pills by the Yunlan Sect.
"Today is the birthday of Steward Mo Cheng, and our Yunlan Sect naturally cannot be out of line. This fourth-grade pill is called Qi Gathering Powder, which was personally refined by Pill King Gu He. It can be considered as a congratulatory gift from our Yunlan Sect."
Gathering Qi!
This thing is a fourth-grade pill. Its effect is to enable young disciples with the ninth level of Dou Power to quickly condense the tenth level of Dou Power, thereby advancing to the level of Dou Zhe.
It is a rare item used to quickly train young disciples.
Its value far surpasses that of other forces, which astonished those present.
"Truly worthy of the Yunlan Sect! They use Qi Gathering Powder right off the bat!"
The retainers at the courtyard gate, all smiles, accepted the Qi Gathering Powder with a smile and shouted at the top of their lungs, "The Yunlan Sect has come to offer their congratulations, and their gift is a bottle of fourth-grade Qi Gathering Powder!"
"Distinguished guests of the Yunlan Sect, please come in and take your seats. The Grand Elder and the Patriarch have been waiting for you for quite some time."
Ge Ye nodded and walked side by side with Nalan Yanran into the Mo family compound.
Xiao Yan, who was behind, had mixed feelings. He hadn't expected to run into his fiancée here. It had been more than a year since they last met. She seemed to have advanced to the Dou Shi level, and even seemed to have the strength to approach that of a Great Dou Shi. He estimated that she was around a nine-star Dou Shi.
For some reason, Xiao Yan felt that something was off about her, but he was too far away to investigate properly.
Several groups of people entered the Mo Family Longevity Garden one after another, and finally it was Xiao Yan's turn.
As someone who came seeking revenge, having to give this old scoundrel a congratulatory gift was truly disgusting to Xiao Yan.
However, after a moment's thought, he quickly came up with an idea.
He took out a bottle of pills from his storage ring and handed it to his retainer: "This is a second-grade pill called Zhongyuan Pill, which can replenish qi and blood, and prolong life. Consider it a token of my appreciation."
He wouldn't give that old scoundrel a single thing, but if it was "gifts" to him, he wouldn't mind.
Although the retainer felt something was amiss, he dared not think too much about it. A pharmacist who could produce second-grade pills was someone he couldn't afford to offend.
"May I ask which faction this alchemist comes from? I would like to record this truthfully."
"Me? Call me Yan Xiao." Xiao Yan didn't just throw around that name; wasn't he here to be the King of Hell?
"Very well, sir, please come in. This is Alchemist Yan Xiao, here to offer my congratulations. My gift is a bottle of Grade Two Zhongyuan Pills!"
After successfully seeing him off, Xiao Yan was able to enter the Mo Family's Longevity Garden. It has to be said that the extravagant lifestyle of these families truly broadened Xiao Yan's horizons.
The entire Shouyuan Garden was built on top of a mountain that was simply moved there.
Unlike the Xue family, who chose to build their manor on the mountain, the Mo family simply moved a mountain from somewhere else and then transformed it into a place suitable for human habitation.
The human and material resources consumed in this are unimaginable.
Entering the Mo Family Longevity Garden is not the end of the matter. Although there are many forces coming to offer their congratulations, they are also divided into different ranks.
The entire Shouyuan Garden is divided into three parts, located at the foot, the middle, and the top of the artificial mountain built by the Mo family.
Even if someone like Xiao Yan were to offer a second-grade pill, he would only be able to sit down halfway up the mountain.
Some small and insignificant families don't even have the right to enter the center of the Shouyuan Garden; at most, they can only have their banquet at the foot of the mountain.
"Hehe, I knew you'd come!"
As soon as Xiao Yan appeared at the Longevity Garden, the girl Mo Linglin, whom he had encountered earlier, suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
She acted as if she knew Xiao Yan very well, making no attempt to hide her enthusiasm for him.
Xiao Yan felt somewhat uncomfortable with this excessive enthusiasm, but as the saying goes, one cannot hit a smiling face, so he couldn't be cold to the other party.
"Hmm, I came to see what you meant by 'the world,' and now that I look at it, it's indeed quite impressive."
It's a pity that such a good place has been given to this damned family. And this is only the situation outside this artificial mountain. As for the inside of the mountain, who knows what unbelievable things are inside.
"Practice makes perfect, and now we can be considered friends, right? Your gift can only stay halfway up the mountain. Come with me, I'll take you to the top."
Mo Linglin didn't stand on ceremony and grabbed Xiao Yan's hand, pulling him towards the mountaintop.
Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but still did not break free from the other party. As the protagonist of this birthday banquet, Mo Cheng must be at the top of the mountain.
Since Mo Linglin is so enthusiastic, I've saved myself some time.
"You lot, get out of the way, or don't blame me for my merciless whip!"
Mo Linglin held Xiao Yan's hand with one hand and brandished a magic core weapon made from a magical beast tendon with the other.
Her spoiled attitude was also subtly revealed in front of these guards.
"Yes, yes, please come in, Second Miss!"
These guards, all at the level of Battle Masters, naturally recognized who this plague god was. Without daring to ask a single question, they all stepped aside.
Mo Linglin turned her head, smiled sweetly at Xiao Yan, and said with a completely different attitude: "Let's go."
Watching the young boy and girl run away, the guards couldn't help but feel a little envious.
"Sigh, I wish I could be chosen by the Second Miss."
Another guard beside him rolled his eyes at him: "Give me a break. Don't you know what kind of temper the Second Miss has? In three days at most, the person around her will be someone else."
"I'd be willing to do it for ten minutes, let alone three days!"
"You have ten minutes? One minute is more like it!"
"Who are you calling a minute? Last time in the peeing contest, I don't know who couldn't pee as far as me."
While the guards were joking around, Mo Linglin had already led Xiao Yan to the banquet square on the mountaintop.
All those who can come here are top-tier families from various regions. Even the worst family has at least three Great Battle Masters.
It can be said that each of them is several levels stronger than the Xiao family before Xiao Yan left.
Xiao Yan used his soul power to search for the Mo family and Qing Lin's whereabouts, but unintentionally discovered a girl in a moon-white dress sitting opposite him.
Unexpectedly, this action attracted the attention of the other party.
