Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 968
Chapter 968 Tianji Manor
“Can you join our Baiyun Imperial Family’s banquet now?”
Seeing Yan Ming leave, Bai Wan’er’s eyes were bright and her expression was charming. She had a charming smile, like a spring lily, which was pleasing to the eye.
“Tell me about the origins of this banquet. Why did you invite me? With my aptitude, it shouldn’t be enough to enter the eyes of the Baiyun Imperial Family, right?”
Ye Feng sat down and stared at Bai Wan’er, hoping to see some clues from her gaze. Unfortunately, from beginning to end, Bai Wan’er only had a smile in her eyes and could not see any fluctuations in her expression.
“Have you ever heard of a sentence? The enemy of the enemy is his friend.”
Bai Wan’er had a smile on her face, causing Ye Feng to not believe that she would have such a monstrous little daughter with the prince’s generation of war gods.
“You mean that I have a grudge with the Yuan Dynasty royal family, and in turn, I have become friends with Baiyun Imperial Family?”
Ye Feng had long known that the two royal families were at odds with each other, and he had offended the Yuan Dynasty royal family, and even kidnapped the Yuan Dynasty royal family’s Little Princess. The two sides were on the same front.
“Isn’t that so?”
Bai Wan’er held her fragrant cheeks, and she was actually very casual here, treating her as if she were her own home.
“I will go to the banquet. Please go back!”
Ye Feng did not continue to talk. There was no need to continue. He opened the door of truth now, and his mind was clear. One thing could deduce the development of the whole thing.
“Then I’ll be waiting for Young Master Ye to arrive tonight!”
Bai Wan’er also knew that Ye Feng did not have a good impression of her, so she stood up and said goodbye.
Bai Wan’er was escorted out by Murong De Lan. Then, Murong De Lan walked in and looked at the invitation on the table without saying anything.
“If you have any objections, you may as well say it.”
Just now, Murong Delan had been outside. Ye Feng did not avoid him during the conversation inside. Now, he was asking for his opinion.
“I think you should go. Baiyun Imperial Family and the Yuan Dynasty’s royal family are both enormous creatures. There’s no harm in having good relations with one side!”
Murong Delan said his thoughts.
“Go get Gabon and Bai Qiu to come out. Let the two of them come with me tonight!”
Ye Feng rubbed his head and opened the invitation. It was located at the Tian Ji Manor in the center of Tan City. This was Baiyun Imperial Family’s property, so this banquet was arranged here.
However, at tea time, Gabon and Bai Qiu came to the hall together. They saw Ye Feng sitting inside and stepping into the hall one after another.
“Greetings, Young Master!”
After Ye Feng’s sword strike, the five of them followed Ye Feng wholeheartedly.
“There’s a banquet tonight. Follow me!”
Ye Feng only said one sentence, then stood up.
“The address is here. I’ll give you an afternoon to get all the information. We’ll set off tonight!”
Ye Feng left the hall and went back to carve the Void Talisman.
Bai Qiu picked up the invitation, and the contents were clear at a glance.
Young Master Ye Feng was respectfully welcomed to the Baiyun Imperial Family Imperial Family banquet. Behind him was a series of attendees’ names. Ye Feng had also seen them just now, and many of them did not recognize each other. That was why he asked the two of them to inquire about the news.
Bai Qiu and Gabon left the yard and went out for information.
Returning to his room, Ye Feng took out the materials that Yan Ming had brought back. These were all materials used to carve a Tier 5 Void Talisman. They were extremely precious and probably cost a lot of Yan Ming’s resources.
Ye Feng’s body was clean and slippery. If it wasn’t for this little senior brother, Ye Feng wouldn’t be able to walk a single step.
The difficulty of drawing a level 5 Void Talisman was still a requirement. It had increased by several times. Ye Feng was currently at the fifth level of the Divine Martial Stage, so he could only draw a level 5 Void Talisman at most. No matter how high he was, he would not be able to draw a level 5 Void Talisman.
Because he comprehended the nature of the world, Ye Feng did not draw too much. Runes quietly appeared one after another and landed on the talisman paper, vivid and lifelike, accompanied by the cries of immortal cranes.
As time went by, Ye Feng’s understanding of inscription patterns became deeper and deeper. Especially the method of refining Void Symbols from the Talisman Sect, which had been obtained from the first to ninth level, was too enlightening for Ye Feng.
The method he had seen in the Tang Clan to refine Void Talismans could only be considered inferior. Compared to the Talisman Sect, it was completely incomparable.
In just two hours, Ye Feng had successfully engraved ten Void Talismans. His head was so tired that it was covered in sweat. The effect was even more accurate and elegant than what he had engraved in the Talisman Guild.
“Hu!”
Ye Feng exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi and continued to carve Void Talismans. This was also a great consumption to his body, especially his primordial spirit, which was almost exhausted.
However, the benefits were self-evident. The more virtual symbols Ye Feng carved, the purer his primordial spirit became. Traces of morality appeared above his primordial spirit.
Put away the Void Talismans. When Yan Ming comes out of seclusion, Ye Feng asks him to exchange for resources. These ten Void Talismans should be able to exchange for a lot of resources, enough for him to temporarily squander for a period of time.
With the passage of time, because Ye Feng had carved the Void Talisman, the Void Flame Finger had finally entered its door and could be released. Its power was even more powerful than Ye Feng had imagined.
It seemed that he was on the right path. He needed to cooperate with the inscription patterns in order to use the Void Flame Finger.
At dusk, Bai Qiu and Gabon came back together, their faces full of exhaustion, but there was also a trace of excitement inside.
“How’s the inquiry going?”
Ye Feng continued to ponder over the Void Flame Finger in the courtyard. When he saw the two of them return, he withdrew his aura.
“I’ve almost inquired!”
Bai Qiu was very calm. No matter what happened, he seemed to be very calm. Unlike Gabon, he could not hide anything on his face.
“What did you find out?”
The three of them walked into the hall together. Bai Qiu and Gabon were both standing, not daring to sit down.
“Sit down and talk. I don’t like restraint!”
Ye Feng asked them to sit down. Bai Qiu hesitated for a moment, but he still sat down. After all, he still couldn’t understand Ye Feng’s temperament. They had only known each other for a few dozen days.
“This banquet hosted by Baiyun Imperial Family is very grand. It invited quite a few young talents from Qin Cheng. Even the Heavenly Clan and the Tang Clan have some talents invited. They are all from the younger generation, and the younger generation from Baiyun Imperial Family will also appear. It can be considered a gathering of the winds and clouds.”
Bai Qiu wasn’t old either, but he lived at the bottom of the social ladder. He was a little excited when he suddenly encountered so many geniuses.
“What else?”
Ye Feng nodded.
“The reason why we have arranged it in Qin Cheng is to let more people rest assured. Baiyun Imperial Family is only to let everyone communicate more and promote the development of martial arts. Moreover, these young talents usually do not have the opportunity to gather together. That is why we have the purpose of this gathering.”
Bai Qiu continued.
Qin Cheng was located in the center of the four factions. The arrangement here also demonstrated Baiyun Imperial Family’s fairness and allowed people to participate without any scruples. At the very least, there was no need to worry that Baiyun Imperial Family would be disadvantageous to them.
“Got it. You guys go back and pack up. As soon as it gets dark, we’ll set off!”
The two of them were very tired after inquiring about the whole afternoon. They also needed to go back and change into clean clothes.
The two of them immediately got up and left. They went back to their rooms, washed up, and changed into a clean set of clothes. However, they were still very simple.
Gabon still liked to pinch the wooden saber to its waist. It was very eye-catching, and the blade emitted a murderous aura.
“Let’s go!”
Ye Feng flicked his robes and stepped out of the courtyard gate. Bai Qiu and Gabon followed closely behind, like two followers.
The Tian Ji Manor was relatively remote. It was located near the mountains and the sea. It was located on the easternmost side of Qin Cheng. Few people had set foot in this place. Basically, it was Baiyun Imperial Family’s territory. There were also fewer shops. It was very quiet.
By the time Ye Feng arrived at Tian Ji Manor, it was already time for the lights to turn on. The manor was filled with a lively scene. At the entrance of the manor, people came and went, and most of them came earlier than Ye Feng.
When he arrived at the gate, Bai Qiu took out his invitation and handed it over.
“Welcome, Young Master Ye!”
Just as the guard received the invitation, a young man walked out from inside. He was dressed in white. He could be considered as Yushu Lingfeng. He was definitely a beautiful man. He extended his hands and warmly held Ye Feng.
Ye Feng was stunned. Wasn’t this person too enthusiastic? He didn’t even know him, so he came up and shook hands warmly.
“My name is Bai Xuehui, Bai Wan’er’s older brother. I have long heard of Young Master Ye’s name. It’s a pleasure to meet you today!”
The young man whispered in his ear the first half of the sentence, then said loudly the last two sentences, pulling Ye Feng inside.
It turned out to be Bai Wan’er’s older brother. Ye Feng suddenly realized that Bai Wan’er must have told the Baiyun Imperial Family about her own matters and knew that it was not strange for him.
However, Ye Feng did not understand why this Bai Xuehui was so enthusiastic towards him. Just now, Ye Feng swept a glance at him. Many of the young geniuses who came here had already become famous for a long time, but he was only an unknown person. This did not seem to conform to common sense.
Under Bai Xuehui’s lead, Ye Feng entered the manor. Inside, there was another world. The decoration was magnificent. It could be said to be golden and brilliant. The manor was filled with a faint wine fragrance, and the fragrance was overflowing.
Under the reflection of the lights, fifty to sixty young men and women were talking to each other. Some were sitting, some were standing, and some were leaning against the railing, looking at the surrounding scenery.
However, most of Qin Cheng’s elites were gathered here. Apart from the Yuan Dynasty’s royal family, the Heavenly Sect, the Tang Clan, Baiyun Imperial Family, and some of Qin Cheng’s local forces were all invited.
“Let me introduce you to a few friends. I promise to satisfy you!”
Bai Xuehui pulled Ye Feng into the depths of the manor. Most of the people gathered here, chatting with each other in twos and threes.
“Young Master Bai, why did you suddenly run away!”
Just as Bai Xuehui was pulling Ye Feng in, he was suddenly stopped.
“Young Master Zhou, calm down. I’ll entertain a friend first and catch up with you later!”
Looking at the person who stopped him, a trace of disgust flashed through Bai Xuehui’s eyes. However, he still had a smile on his face and was very polite. After all, the person who came was a guest.
“Oh, what kind of friend is he? He needs Young Master Bai to personally go out to welcome him. I’m very interested!”
The youth surnamed Zhou then turned his gaze towards Ye Feng, because Bai Xuehui was still carrying Ye Feng’s arm. Obviously, Bai Xuehui was the one who went out to welcome Ye Feng.
“Forgive my clumsiness, this brother in front of me is very unfamiliar. May I have his surname, Gao!”
How could a person that Bai Xuehui valued be an ordinary person? Although this Zhou Young man had an arrogant expression on his face, he still spoke more tactfully when he couldn’t get to the bottom of it.
“Let me introduce you two. This is the famous Young Master of the Heavenly Sect, Zhou Feng, and this is the famous Ye Feng brothers of the Tang Clan.”
From Bai Xuehui’s words, he could tell that he addressed Zhou Feng as Young Master and Ye Feng as brothers. The relationship between the two immediately became clear.
