When Uncle Chen saw the two guards coming up, he quickly stated that he was from the Treasure Hunting Pavilion in Dahuang City, and that Ye Li was the external talisman master that Zhao Wanyin had found.
Hearing Uncle Chen's words, the two guards hurriedly saluted Ye Li respectfully, and then one of them said, "Sir, please follow me. The lady is already waiting for you."
Ye Li nodded and followed the guard into the mansion.
The Zhao family’s mansion is very large, even larger than the Ye family’s compound in Dahuang City. And this is just a branch of the Zhao family. The Zhao family also has its own city.
The entire house is dominated by gold and red, which looks very luxurious and wealthy.
The guards took Ye Li along the way and met many members of the Zhao family on the way. They all looked at Ye Li with curiosity.
They did have some guesses in their hearts that Ye Li might be the foreign talisman master invited by the family to participate in the Holy Mountain Trial, but when they looked closely at Ye Li's age, they had some doubts in their hearts.
After all, Ye Li is only twenty years old now, and he doesn't look very strong at all. People of this age, even those in the Zhao family, rarely enter the Lingdan stage, let alone the middle or late stage.
The external aid for the Holy Mountain Test must be as strong as possible. If we find someone in the early Lingdan period, it will be of little help to the family.
Ye Li didn't know what the Zhao family was thinking, and he didn't care about the scrutiny from the people around him.
After all, he grew up under the ridicule and contempt of others, so he no longer cared so much about the attitudes of outsiders.
After walking around the courtyard for an incense stick of time, the guard led Ye Li to a room and then knocked on the door.
Zhao Wanyin's inquiring voice sounded in the room, and the guard hurriedly told her about Ye Li.
Then the door opened with a creaky sound, and Zhao Wanyin's graceful figure appeared behind the door.
"Ye Li, you're here. I told you that you might not be able to make it tonight."
Zhao Wanyin looked at Ye Li with a smile on her face and spoke.
Ye Li also smiled and said, "It rained heavily for a while on the road, and the road became slippery. We had no choice but to slow down, which made Wanyin wait for a long time."
Zhao Wanyin smiled again and said, "It's okay, this is the time we arranged, and it's normal to encounter various situations on the way.
The Holy Mountain Test will not begin until two days later, so we have plenty of time."
As Zhao Wanyin spoke, she waved her hand to signal the guards that they could leave.
Afterwards, he led Ye Li to the other side of the house.
"Ye Li, I will take you to your residence to rest first. You can walk around the city freely for the next two days. There are still many things to play in Paradise City.
We assembled early in the morning two days later and headed for the psychedelic jungle."
Zhao Wanyin said to Ye Li as they walked.
Ye Li smiled and said, "I don't have any hobbies. The Holy Mountain Test must not be an easy task. I won't be distracted before the battle.
Anyway, I can't escape from Paradise City. After the Holy Mountain Trial is over, I will go to the city for a stroll."
Hearing Ye Li's words, Zhao Wanyin's eyes showed admiration. After all, every young person likes to have fun. Ye Li was able to suppress the distracting thoughts in his mind. From the perspective of his character, he was definitely a top-notch person.
After the two chatted for a while, they soon arrived at the Zhao family's mansion, a place for guests to rest and live. A small house appeared in front of Ye Li.
Zhao Wanyin led Ye Li to a room and said, "Ye Li, you can stay here temporarily. We will have servants to serve you. You can ask them to do anything.
By the way, our family will prepare a dinner tomorrow night to welcome you and other foreign talisman masters, and introduce you to the team from our family that will be taking part in the trial this time.
You will all work together in the future, so knowing each other in advance will allow you to cooperate more closely in the battle of the Holy Mountain Trial."
Although Ye Li didn't like this kind of banquet very much, he knew that he couldn't not attend. After all, he was a guest and had to respect the host's arrangements.
"Okay, Wanyin, I will stay in the house for the next two days. If the dinner starts, you just need to ask someone to take me there."
Ye Li said with a smile.
Afterwards, Zhao Wanyin took Ye Li to look around the house, and asked him to rest early. Then she left the cottage alone. Ye Li temporarily stayed in the Zhao family's mansion.
Ye Li practiced in the house all the next day. He wanted to bring himself to the best condition.
It was not until the evening that the servant of the Zhao family finally knocked on Ye Li's door and said, "Master Ye, the dinner is almost time. The young lady asked me to bring a dress to you."
Ye Li, who was in the room, was stunned when he heard this, then hurriedly opened the door and let the Zhao family servant in.
The servant who was in charge of taking care of Ye Li's daily life was a girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old named Qiao Lian.
Ye Li looked at the clothes in Qiao Lian's hands and said, "Miss Qiao Lian, does Wan Yin want me to change my clothes and come over?"
After looking at the linen suit he was wearing, he felt that his current appearance was indeed not suitable for attending a formal banquet.
Although the Ye family is only a seventh-rank family, it is still an aristocratic family after all, and Ye Li still understands the etiquette and rules.
He could indeed dress casually at ordinary banquets, but a very formal banquet like this one among a large family still required more formal attire.
"Mr. Ye, this banquet is quite formal, and I think it might be a little inappropriate for you to wear this attire.
She didn't know if you had prepared a dress, so she ordered someone to make a set of clothes for you."
Qiao Lian answered.
Ye Li was actually somewhat grateful to Zhao Wanyin for her thoughtfulness. His current identity was that of Ou Qianxie's disciple. If he dressed too casually in these formal occasions, it would damage the image of his master.
After taking the clothes from Qiao Lian, Ye Li planned to change them immediately.
Qiao Lian tactfully left the room, closed the door, and waited at the door.
Ye Li took a look at the clothes in his hand. It was a loose robe made of green cloud pattern brocade. It felt very soft to the touch and must be much more comfortable to wear than the linen clothes he was wearing.
After quickly putting on the clothes, Ye Li felt a lot more relaxed. The loose robe covered his tall and strong body and looked very suitable.
After putting his clothes away, he opened the door and walked out.
Qiao Lian, who was waiting outside, could not help but be stunned when she saw Ye Li again. As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. When Ye Li put on this plain and simple green robe, he seemed to be a completely different person.
