On the first day of the fifth month, it is the time when everything in the world is full of spring and flowers are in full bloom.
The spring is beautiful, and the red maple valley is also full of birds and flowers, and the shade of the trees is enlightened, which has the style of a paradise.
In addition, today is a birthday ceremony, and the valley is even more joyful, red brocade is like clouds, and people are thick like crucian carp.
Those who can enter the valley are all monks who have achieved cultivation and have a certain status, and most of these people are cultivators during the foundation building period, and they go straight into the valley along a main road in the valley along the way.
On both sides of the road, there were many disciples of the Nie family who were responsible for guiding and welcoming guests, and most of them were cultivators in the Qi refining period.
However, one by one, their faces were ruddy and full of spirit, obviously they, the monks of the Nie family, felt that their faces were shining and they were in a very good mood when they saw so many talented monks coming to congratulate them.
After Li Sen and Wudao entered the valley, they also followed this road and went straight to the depths of the valley.
There are a total of three major halls in the Red Maple Valley, and according to the status of many guests, a fixed number of banquets are placed in front of each hall.
The disciples of the Nie family, who were in charge of welcoming the guests, led the monks on the road to their seats one by one.
After Li Sen and Wudao walked not far away, they were greeted by a good-looking female monk of the Nie family.
This woman was a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, and at the age of twenty-seven or eight, she walked over and first bowed respectfully to Li Sen and Wudao, and then said: "Governor Li, Master Wudao, the head of the family said that if the two of you come to the valley, you will be directly invited into the study of the head of the family, and he will personally entertain you." ” Hearing this, Li Sen and Wudao glanced at each other, and then they both showed a hint of a smile.
Li Sen opened his mouth and said, "Nie Daoyou is really polite.
Today is his birthday, Li should visit in person, how dare you send someone to greet him personally" Wu Dao said with a smile: "However, since Master Nie personally invited, it is inconvenient for the two of us to refuse.
This benefactor, let you lead the way. ” "The two seniors are polite, please here."
The friar smiled, then turned around and walked straight into the depths of the Red Maple Valley.
Along the way, most of the monks of Wu Guo who came to congratulate them along the way did not know who Li Sen was.
But many of them recognized enlightenment.
From time to time, someone will say hello to enlightenment, or it will be a set.
Enlightenment, but there was no shelf at all, and they all smiled and nodded in response, which seemed very polite.
For this reason, Li Sen, who was with Enlightenment, couldn't help but delay some time.
By the time Li Sen and Wudao came to the outside of Nie Qihai's study, it was already half an hour later.
Before entering the study, I heard a cold snort from the yin test in the study through the door: "What did you say that you actually regretted Nie Qihai in battle, this is different from what we said before."
The snort sounded cold like a viper, and it was mixed with arrogance, coldness, and a top-down defiance.
You must know that today is Nie Qihai's birthday ceremony, and Nie Qihai is the first Jindan monk in the entire Wu Kingdom, with the amazing strength of a half-step infant.
Who the hell is this, who dares to speak so coldly and arrogantly in Nie Qihai's study At this moment, the female monk of the Nie family who had guided Li Sen and Enlightenment along the way had an angry look on her face, obviously because the head of her own family had been humiliated, and she herself felt ashamed and angry.
But the woman didn't immediately say what to do, but came to the door and said in a loud voice: "Master of the family, at your invitation, Governor Li Sen and Master Enlightenment have already arrived.
Do you bring them in."
After these words were spoken, an angry snort came from inside the room.
"Hmph, that's the case, no wonder you're so fearless, it turns out that you're going to defect to the Gathering Star Business Alliance."
This sentence became more and more unpolite, and his tone changed from the previous arrogance to a trace of indifference and hostility.
But at the same time, there was a somewhat old voice.
"Let them both in."
"Yes."
The female monk of the Nie family stood outside the door and nodded in agreement, then pushed the door open, and then bowed down and said, "Two seniors, please come in." ” Seeing this scene, Li Sen and Wudao glanced at each other, then nodded slightly, and strode into the study.
As the two entered the study, the door to the study slammed shut.
And the female monk of the Nie family was firmly guarding the door, refusing to allow others to come closer.
After Li Sen entered the study, the first thing that caught his eye was a yellow-haired old man sitting on the main seat of the study, frowning.
This person is none other than Nie Qihai.
It's just that the last time Li Sen saw Nie Qihai, this person still had the demeanor of a strong man that was difficult for ordinary people to reach, but now he was like an old man in his last years, sitting on a chair and covering his mouth and coughing lightly, as if he was not in good health.
In addition to him, there were four people in the room.
Two of them were extremely old, with gray hair, wrinkled faces, wearing a special white robe made by the Nie family's Red Maple Valley, and they were both ordinary Jindan early stage cultivators.
Both of them sat in their right-hand seats with unpleasant expressions, and they both looked at the two monks opposite each other with angry faces, as if they did not like the two monks opposite.
And sitting directly opposite the two of them were Chai Rong and Bai Xiuzhu, whom Li Sen had just met at the mouth of the valley before.
Unexpectedly, after Li Sen and Wudao were delayed in the aisle for some time, these two people, who were originally lagging behind Li Sen, actually rushed into Nie Qihai's study before them, and also had a conflict with Nie Qihai.
"Li Sen, the governor of Wu State of the Gathering Star Business Alliance, has seen Nie Daoyou.

On this good day, I wish you the happiness of the old people such as the East China Sea and Shoubi Nanshan.
"Li Senli has done a lot of work.
Wudao also followed closely behind Li Sen and made a birthday speech.
Moreover, the two of them generally took out birthday gifts.
Li Sen is a thousand-year-old best wild ginseng, and the enlightened one is a three-color heart lotus.
Nie Qihai listened to the congratulatory message and accepted the congratulatory gift, and the originally sad look on his face finally eased a little.
He smiled and said: "The two Taoist friends came from thousands of miles to celebrate their birthdays, and they are really brilliant, how fortunate they are."
Have a seat. ” Li Sen and Wudao bowed their hands again, and then sat down one after another.
But as soon as Li Sen sat down, there was a piercing sneer next to him.
"Hehe, I said why did your Nie family suddenly become angry, and actually betrayed our Yuanling Business Alliance, it turned out that they had found a new master.
It's ironic, it's ridiculous."
The one who spoke was Chai Rong, the most powerful second-generation young master of the Yuanling Business Alliance.
His tone was as ugly and arrogant as ever.
Now it's mixed in with some insulting offensive words.
Hearing this, Nie Qihai's originally slightly better expression became ugly again.
But what was surprising was that Nie Qihai's original cultivation realm far surpassed Chai Rong's, but as if he was worried about something, he didn't dare to refute, but coughed lightly again and again.
Bai Xiuzhu, who was sitting next to Chai Rong, frowned at this moment and said: "Chai Gongzi said cautiously, Nie Daoyou and Bai have been friends for many years, and they are old acquaintances.
Since he chose to do so, he may also have his own troubles.
Now that the people from the Gathering Stars Business Alliance have also arrived, we might as well listen to what he has to say next and then discuss. ” "After discussing again, he invited the people of the Gathering Star Business Alliance to the house, and what else is there to discuss, this is obviously a betrayal, a naked betrayal," Chai Rong said angrily.
When Bai Xiuzhu heard this, he couldn't help frowning.
But he seemed to be concerned about Chai Rong's power, so he closed his mouth and said no more.
But the two Nie family elders on the opposite side did not follow, and one of them gasped and said angrily: "Our Nie family is a famous family that has been inherited in the territory of Wu for thousands of years, and it is also innocent so far, when did you defect to your Yuanling Business Alliance, what are the betrayal words that have come The old man advises you to pay attention to what you say, don't be unreasonable, and spew blood."
Hearing these words, Chai Rong glanced at this person with slanted eyes: "What kind of thing are you, where is there a place for you to speak here, and there is a scum of the cultivation realm like you in this business alliance, if there are not a thousand, there are eight hundred, even if you dare to bark at this son, is it just a Nie family, really want to go against my Yuanling business alliance?"
As soon as these words came out, the elder was furious, but after the green tendons on his neck twitched twice, he finally sat back down.
Chai Rong sneered twice, hugged his shoulders, and then turned his gaze back to Nie Qihai, who was frowning and coughing.
"Nie Qihai, I advise you to extinguish that little bit of caution early.
I tell you honestly, now the entire human world has the ability to be willing to protect your Nie family, and the only one who has this will is our Yuanling Business Alliance.
For the sake of the thousand-year-old rumors of your Nie family, and for the thousands of lives of your Nie family, I advise you to think carefully and think clearly.
Don't use the excuse of a birthday banquet to look for the master like a headless fly, I tell you, it is useless at all, it will only bring humiliation on yourself."
After saying these inexplicable words, Chai Rong sat back with a cold face, hugged his shoulders, and didn't say anything more, looking extremely strong and domineering.
But Li Sen and Wudao, who witnessed this scene, both showed a hint of surprise.
Judging from Chai Rong's words, it seems that Nie Qihai's holding of this birthday banquet today is just an excuse.
And what Chai Rong just said about the Nie family going to defect to the Yuanling Business Alliance is also quite surprising.
But looking at Nie Qihai's appearance of forbearance, and the appearance of the two Nie family elders who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, Li Sen felt that this was very likely to be true.
"Tsk, this Nie Qihai is known as the first monk in the Jindan period of the Wu Kingdom.
The strength of the Nie family in the territory of Wu can also be called the first family, how could such a behemoth quietly defect to the Yuanling Business Alliance If it weren't for Nie Qihai inviting him under the pretext of a birthday banquet today, I'm afraid that the entire business alliance, including himself, would not know this news."
Li Sen was secretly in his heart, but on the surface, he sat there quietly, putting on an impartial and neutral attitude, just waiting for Nie Qihai to open his mouth to clarify the truth of the matter
