The garden of Wenhou Mansion is very large, with green grass and blue lake water, and the scenery is beautiful.
The guests who came to attend the 14th birthday party of Little Marquis Wen Hua, no matter how distinguished they were, all gathered here. It can be said that it was a gathering of celebrities. The handsome men and beautiful women from Yunshui City, the famous and powerful people from all over, mostly gathered in twos and threes. Together, they drank, chatted, laughed and seemed quite lively.
If you look carefully, you can find that these well-dressed and distinguished people are all surrounded by beautiful waiters who are looking after them carefully, lest they are not taken care of well.
There are only a few people like Chen Xi who come alone, with strange and young looks. Even if maids come to inquire, most of them have a lukewarm attitude.
Of course, Chen Xi didn't care about this. What he was interested in was how the young man named Shen Yan beside him entered Wenhou Mansion.
This young man has dark skin, a firm expression, and simple clothes. Although he has been washed clean, it is not difficult to find that the clothes have been worn for many years.
From this alone, we can tell that his living situation is not very good.
At the current banquet, the gatherings were either local dignitaries from Yunshui City or representatives of major forces from all over, all dressed up like peacocks and as beautiful as they wanted.
Someone as simple as Shen Yan actually looked extremely eye-catching.
What's especially important is that Chen Xi discovered that this young man, whether intentionally or not, deliberately hid in the shadows behind him, as if he was afraid of being caught out.
This made him curious, and he couldn't help but ask: "Is your name Ana Shen?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Chen Xi to talk to him. He nodded repeatedly and muttered for a long time before carefully saying: "Master, I will stay here for a while, okay?"
Chen Xi nodded and said, "Of course, but would you like to tell me the reason first?" His voice was gentle, making people involuntarily relax their vigilance.
Seeing Chen Xi's friendly attitude, Ana Shen felt much more at ease. She pursed her lips and was silent for a long time. Then she raised her face and gritted her teeth and said, "I... I... want to become a disciple!"
As soon as the words came out, Ana Shen seemed to feel much more relaxed and her words became much more fluent: "Young Master, to be honest, I am just a servant in the Marquis Wen's Mansion. I was sold into the Marquis' Mansion since I was a child and have been subjected to evil slavery all year round. I was bullied, but no one offered me justice. Although I was angry, I never blamed others. I knew that if I didn’t change, it would be a temporary solution even if I had to ask for help from others. If I wanted to change my embarrassment in life, I could only change myself. powerful!"
Speaking of this, Ana Shen's brows were full of determination: "So since three years ago, I began to practice calligraphy secretly, watching others practice martial arts every day, and tempering myself, never slacking off, in order to one day, If you can win the favor of the immortal and accept me as your disciple, you will no longer suffer from this slavery."
Chen Xi was silent. He was very sure that Ana Shen did not lie. At Chen Xi's level, Chen Xi could clearly sense Ana Shen's soul. He could also judge whether Ana Shen was lying.
Because of this, after listening to Shen Yan's self-report, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel a sense of appreciation in his heart. He endured humiliation without complaining, suffered all kinds of tortures and then became brave. Such a mentality can be found in a young man of Shen Yan's age. On the contrary, it is more eye-catching and valued than those so-called talents and qualifications.
"I'm not afraid of young master's jokes. I came here this time, but I was actually quite nervous. It was a desperate move. If I was discovered, I would be severely punished. After all, before I became stronger, I was still just a slave. The reason why Hiding on the young master's side is also to hide and avoid being discovered."
"Perhaps for other people, this opportunity can be accepted with peace of mind, but for me, it concerns everything about me. It is so important. If I miss it, I think it will be difficult for me to encounter such an opportunity again in my life. "
Ana Shen laughed at himself, and then fell into silence.
He had been silent over the years, and the hardships he had suffered were all silently suppressed deep in his heart. He had not spoken so openly for a long time. At this time, he actually shared so many concerns with a stranger. Even he felt incredible.
At this moment, there was a sudden uproar in the distance and the crowd was restless.
"Whose daughter is this? She is so beautiful! I have traveled to the thirty-eight towns of Huangliang Kingdom and have seen beauties of all kinds, but I have never seen such a beautiful woman."
"Ice skin and jade skin, natural beauty, just like a fairy from the ice palace descending to the mortal world!"
The exclamations came one after another, causing many eyes present to look over. Even some of the female guests who had been robbed of the limelight couldn't help but look up.
However, I saw a beautiful girl in a purple skirt walking over. She had slender legs, a waist as thin as a willow, and a swan neck. Her skin was white and crystal clear, and her face was as beautiful as a painting. There was an air of arrogance in every move she made. Human temperament makes people feel ashamed.
As she walked along like this, she attracted almost all the eyes here. Both men and women looked at her together. Even some famous seniors had their eyes twinkling and were shocked.
When Chen Xi saw this girl, he frowned, why is it her
This girl was naturally Bai Liyan from the Immortal Spirit Mountain. She seemed to have discovered Chen Xi a long time ago, and walked straight over with a calm look on her face.
"Why, you didn't expect me to come?" Bailiyan opened her red lips lightly and stood next to Chen Xi. A refreshing fragrance spread out from her graceful and slender body.
"I really didn't expect it."
Chen Xi glanced at the two old men on Bailiyan's side and then looked back. He had already seen that the two old men were both powerful Earth Immortals.
With such a lineup, he would have felt a pressure in the past, but now, he is not worried about anything.
"This is called a surprise." Bailiyan smiled softly, her beautiful face radiating with radiance, revealing a breathtaking beauty that made everyone around her feel dazed for a while.
Chen Xi frowned: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Seeing that Chen Xi was so impatient, Bai Liyan was not anxious anymore. She glanced around and said leisurely: "Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome to accept a disciple. As long as you tell me your name, you won't be so warm. Dian sent his son to your door?"
Chen Xi looked to one side and found that Ana Shen had already left while he was talking to Bai Liyan, which made him feel slightly annoyed.
He knew that Shen Yan had taken a huge risk by coming here as a servant. What he was most worried about was being discovered by others. However, now, because of Bai Liyan's appearance, all the attention has been focused on this place. Bian, had to leave, I was afraid that I would be extremely disappointed.
Maybe Bai Liyan did it unintentionally, but her appearance undoubtedly indirectly killed a young man's hope of becoming stronger. How could Chen Xi not be annoyed by this
"If you continue to pester me, don't blame me for being rude." Chen Xi took a deep breath, looked at the beautiful face of the girl on the side, and said calmly.
Bailiyan was startled, then suddenly smiled, as elegant as the flowers that bloomed after the rain, "I really want to know, how can you be so rude to me?"
As she spoke, she raised her snow-white gooseneck, her clear eyes moved, and she stared at Chen Xi provocatively.
Chen Xi also suddenly laughed: "Do you know about the betrayal of Bing Shitian's fox princess? She is naturally charming and charming. What's rare is that her cultivation is still in the earthly immortal realm, but now she has become one of my servants. Rili brings tea and water, respectfully, how do you think I can turn you into like her, and how will it feel?"
Bailiyan raised her eyebrows: "How dare you!?"
She is a descendant from the Immortal Spirit Mountain, and her status is noble enough to look down on most of her peers in the world. But now, Chen Xi actually said that he would capture her and use her as a slave girl. This is simply a great humiliation!
Chen Xi was unmoved and asked, "Why don't I dare?"
Bai Liyan frowned and stared at Chen Xi with a pair of eyes, wanting to spit out fire. For the first time, she discovered that the self-cultivation and city government that she had always been most proud of seemed to be of no use in front of this guy. Every time she saw him When he saw it, he was so angry that he wanted to tear this guy to pieces.
"Haha, when the distinguished guest arrives, Mr. Wen will welcome you from afar. Please atone for your sins."
Just when Chen Xi and Bai Liyan were staring at each other, a bold and deep voice suddenly sounded, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.
The person who came was dressed in a golden robe, tall and majestic, and strode forward with a power that could swallow up mountains and rivers. It was none other than Wen Tianshuo, the master of Wenhou Mansion, a well-known and powerful Earth Immortal!
Next to him, there is also a young man with a strong back, eyes like stars, heroic appearance, and full of vigor. No need to guess, this young man must be the young Marquis Wen Hua.
As soon as the two appeared, they came directly in front of Bailiyan under the compliments of everyone. Wen Tianshuo said with a smile: "I, Wen Tianshuo, may I ask where the girl comes from?"
At this time, Bai Liyan had returned to her usual calmness and calmness. Facing Wen Tianshuo's question, she just glanced at Chen Xi lightly and said calmly: "I came here this time just to find someone, and I have no intention of staying in your mansion longer." , as for the origin, it’s better not to mention it.”
A few words, seemingly indifferent, but they express the pride in her bones vividly. She is just a man who can catch a lot of people in this world. If there is no reason for the matter, it is impossible for her to look at this person again, even if the other person is an Earth Immortal. Zu, she didn’t take it to heart at all.
This is the foundation of being a descendant of the Immortal Spirit Mountain.
Wen Tianshuo was stunned, but his expression became more serious and awe-inspiring. The more Bailiyan acted like this, the more he felt that she had an unusual origin. In addition, there were two old men from the Earthly Immortal Realm protecting her. Such a character, too. Definitely not those people who are pretending to be mysterious.
"Haha, Wen understands, understands."
The next moment, Wen Tianshuo laughed loudly, looked at Chen Xi, looked at it briefly, and then said with a surprised smile: "I am afraid that this young hero is the person that the girl is looking for. He is indeed impressive. Extraordinary.”
Chen Xi shook his head: "Master Hou misunderstood. I don't know her, and I have nothing to do with her."
As soon as this statement came out, not only Wen Tianshuo was shocked, but also everyone around him was shocked. What kind of trouble are this man and woman going to have
