Xu Caiyue was indifferent and did not have the beauty-loving personality of a woman's family. She was accustomed to being indifferent and did not even pay much attention to her clothes.
At this moment, she was wearing a simple long gown, but it still couldn't cover up her peerless beauty.
There had never been such a beautiful woman in Blue Rock City. Xiang Nan and Xu Caiyue walked side by side, attracting a large number of passersby to follow them.
In the words of a passer-by describing Xu Caiyue's beauty, it was "incredibly beautiful."
Xiang Nan said, "That Wang Xiaoyun, I have fought with him before. With his talent, I'm afraid he can't even reach the outer disciples of the The Profound Sky Sect, but he was nurtured as a core disciple."
Xu Caiyue said, "This is a gesture made by the The Profound Sky Sect. From now on, there will no longer be a Blazing Fire Sect in this world."
"In order to show off to the other sects that are about to submit to the Heavenly Profound Sect, the Heavenly Profound Sect will definitely give the core disciples of the Blazing Fire Sect special attention. This can be considered as a way to bribe people, right?"
"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded.
As they spoke, the two of them had already turned around and arrived at the City Lord's Mansion of Bluestone City.
At this moment, there were a lot of traffic outside the City Lord's Mansion. A large number of people from Bluestone City were blocked outside the mansion. These people didn't even have the qualifications to enter to celebrate their birthday.
After hearing about the background of the The Xiang Clan and Wang Clan, the big shots from several nearby cities also rushed over. They heard that the three city masters of Cyanwood City, Black Wind City and White Birch City had personally come.
Xu Caiyue's appearance naturally attracted the envious gazes of a large number of people. Fortunately, today was a good day, and no one would foolishly cause trouble to flirt with Xu Caiyue.
As for Xiang Nan, he had changed his appearance, and no one could recognize him.
"Stop." The guard at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion stopped Xiang Nan and said, "No one else is allowed to enter."
Xiang Nan thought it was funny, but he was very grateful to Hong Zhen. This city lord had done a lot for his The Xiang Clan. In fact, Hong Zhen did not care about the grudges between the The Xiang Clan and Wang Clan. He was about to be transferred to the state capital.
However, before he left, he didn't forget to do something for the The Xiang Clan, which made Xiang Nan very grateful.
"I am a disciple of the Haoran Sect. I am here to congratulate Old Hero Xiang Zhanxiong on his birthday." Xiang Nan took out the Haoran Sect's waist token.
"Oh, so it's a friend of the Haoran Sect." The guard originally had a serious expression, but when he heard about the Haoran Sect, he immediately felt intimate. He smiled and said, "We, Xiang Nan, are also in the Haoran Sect. I hope you can take care of us more often."
The people of the City Lord's Mansion had already treated Xiang Nan as their own family.
Xiang Nan was grateful in his heart and said, "Thank you, of course."
After entering, the Xiang Wang Clan and the Xiang Wang Clan were in the congratulatory ceremony.
Xiang Nan wanted to observe who really wanted to make friends with the The Xiang Clan, but he didn't reveal his identity. He stood outside the crowd with Xu Caiyue and looked towards the birthday hall.
Above the longevity hall, one of the seats was naturally City Lord Hong Zhen. On his left hand was Xiang Zhanxiong, and on his right was Wang Changhe. Only then were the other three City Lords left and right.
The guests who came were all very good people. They divided the birthday gifts into two identical portions, one for King Xiang and the other for the birthday celebrities of the two families. They were impartial, neither too much nor too little.
However, after the giver arrived at the outer city, there was an obvious bias.
The gifts given to Xiang Zhanxiong by the city lords of Azure Wood City, including the great figures of Azure Wood City, were obviously more valuable than those given by Wang Changhe. Obviously, they were more inclined towards the Haoran Sect when they stood in line.
Black Wind City and White Birch City gave more valuable gifts to the Wang Clan than to the The Xiang Clan. They started from the sects and believed that the The Profound Sky Sect was far above the Haoran Sect.
Xiang Nan observed that Wang Xiaoyun was also present, standing beside his father Wang Changhe. At this moment, the arrogance on Wang Xiaoyun's face was much more arrogant than usual.
City Lord Hong Zhen laughed heartily and stood up."Thank you so much for coming here today to celebrate the birthday of the two old heroes of the Xiang and Wang Clans."
"The Wang Clan of the The Xiang Clan has always been my right hand man. Especially since the two clans are supported by the Haoran Sect and the Heavenly Profound Sect, our Bluestone City has infinite scenery."
"Today, I hope that the two old heroes can make peace with each other and get closer to each other."
Xiang Zhanxiong and Wang Changhe had never made eye contact, and neither of them cared about each other.
The atmosphere was slightly awkward. Hong Zhen had already expected this scene. He smiled and said, "I will rush to the prefecture capital to take up my post in a few days. Before I leave, I will personally propose a toast to the two old heroes."
"I wish the two old heroes a blessing like the flowing waters of the East China Sea, and a longevity comparable to the Immortal Pine of Mount Nanshan."
Xiang Zhanxiong and Wang Changhe stood up at the same time and drank with Hong Zhen.
"Alright, next is a gift from the younger generation." Hong Zhen clapped his hands.
A junior from the The Xiang Clan stood up and held a brocade box in his hands. He said, "I wish Grandpa good health and a higher realm. Grandson, Xiang Yun."
"Haha, good, good child." Xiang Zhanxiong was greatly gratified.
A guard walked forward and took the brocade box. After checking it, he said, "Two ten-thousand-year-old ganoderma lucidum stalks."
Then, a junior from the Wang Clan also walked out, holding the brocade box in both hands and reading a congratulatory message.
As for this person, he had offered three thirty thousand year old spirit ginseng.
In this tribute segment, the Xiang Wang Clan and the Xiang Wang Clan were secretly competing, each wanting to surpass the other.
However, it was obvious that Wang Xiaoyun had received a lot of benefits from the help of the The Profound Sky Sect. The birthday gifts they gave him were getting heavier and heavier, and they were always suppressing the The Xiang Clan.
Slowly, the faces of the The Xiang Clan members became ugly, especially the The Xiang Clan elders, who were so angry that their faces turned ashen.
Hong Zhen secretly sighed. He originally wanted to be the host before he left to ease the relationship between the two families. Who knew that the two families would be able to compete under any circumstances?
Later on, the gift from the Wang Clan was already extremely shocking. Even the three City Lords who had come to attend the birthday banquet were stunned.
The younger generation of the The Xiang Clan had gifted a forging material, which was an Earth Grade Elementary Grade. This kind of forging material could be considered a treasure in a remote corner like Blackstone City.
The Wang Clan's gift was even more frightening. They actually gave Wang Changhe a junior Earth Soldier!
Such a treasure caused all the guests present to widen their eyes, their eyes shining with incomparably greedy gazes.
In the end, a junior from the The Xiang Clan walked forward with a brocade box in his hands. After offering a congratulatory message, a guard opened the brocade box for acceptance.
"Xiang Feilong, the younger generation of the The Xiang Clan, presents a 50, 000-year-old Jade Blood Stone."
Everyone was in an uproar.
Jade Blood Stone was a very special type of jade. This type of jade would grow on its own. Every thousand years, it would grow a little. Fifty thousand years old jade Blood Stone was the size of a walnut.
Most importantly, this kind of jade could moisten a martial artist's state of mind and even stabilize their realm. As long as they were worn all year round, there would naturally be endless benefits.
Xiang Nan stood outside the crowd and nodded silently. This Xiang Feilong was a younger generation, about fourteen years old. The most precious thing was that not only was Xiang Feilong's martial arts foundation very good, even his talent was an Earth Grade Fire Vein. This kind of talent was rare in the The Xiang Clan for a hundred years.
"That's right." Xiang Nan's face was filled with admiration. There were small holes in the jade blood stone that he had clearly worn.
Xiang Nan appreciated the fact that he knew how to be loyal and filial at such a young age.
