Qing Yue Lou.
This was the largest restaurant in Chai Sang City, and one of the most famous restaurants in the Runzhou region. Legend had it that a single meal here would cost at least a hundred taels of silver.
Those who could hold banquets at Qing Yue Lou were definitely not ordinary people.
And today, Qing Yue Lou was even more lively than usual, bustling with activity, with people everywhere, decked out in colorful decorations.
Because the Eight Young Masters of Bei Li were holding a banquet here, inviting all the young talents of the Southwest Path to gather.
“Why is he not here yet?”
“It’s almost the hour of the dog, wouldn’t he have broken his promise and not come?”
Lei Meng Sha stood at the entrance of Qing Yue Lou, looking eagerly around, occasionally speaking out loud.
Gu Jian Men’s ears were starting to get annoyed, so he said, “It’s still half an hour before the hour of the dog, what’s the rush? Can you be quiet for a bit?”
“He’s here too?”
Lei Meng Sha asked curiously, “Who came?”
Just then, a person in blue clothes and another person in black clothes slowly walked out from the darkness.
“There’s a master!”
“Are they from the Dark River?”
Lei Meng Sha immediately tensed up, the Dark River didn’t have a good reputation in the martial world, their appearance often meant death.
“Don’t be nervous, they are my guests.”
Gu Jian Men put his hand on Lei Meng Sha’s shoulder, turned to look at the newcomer, and nodded with a smile.
“Su Mu Yu, Su Chang He, we’ve met the Zuo Mo Gongzi.”
To Lei Meng Sha’s surprise and contrary to his stereotype, the newcomers were quite polite.
“The Dark River has also arrived, they’re known to take on any job for money, issuing contracts at the third watch and taking lives at the fifth, could it be they have their sights set on someone in this restaurant tonight?”
Luo Xuan’s voice came from behind Lei Meng Sha, he had rushed out after sensing the fleeting killing intent, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Su Mu Yu, the puppet, and the other gravedigger, Su Chang He.
“Very perceptive, aren’t you?”
Su Chang He smiled nonchalantly, he had deliberately shown his killing intent just now, wanting to see what level of skill was present at the banquet hosted by the Eight Young Masters of Bei Li, inviting guests from all over the Southwest Path.
If it was too weak, he wasn’t interested.
Su Mu Yu looked at Su Chang He with disapproval, but in front of outsiders, he still had to uphold the Dark River’s reputation: “We are not here to kill, but by invitation, if you don’t welcome us, we will leave now.”
On the other side, Lei Meng Sha quickly explained the situation to Luo Xuan.
Gu Jian Men then said, “My apologies for the poor hospitality, please come in, the two of you.”
Su Chang He’s eyes narrowed slightly, as if eager to try something.
“Chang He, don’t be reckless, our target tonight is not them.” Su Mu Yu shook his head slightly, he knew that Su Chang He was eager to jump in, but their current identities were guests, not killers.
If he acted recklessly and got thrown out, that would be a small matter, but missing tonight’s banquet would be a big deal.
“Since you are guests, then please come in.”
Lei Meng Sha and Luo Xuan stepped aside.
“Thank you.”
Su Mu Yu nodded, his face stern, and was about to enter.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, as if sensing something, he turned his head sharply.
“It’s him, he really came!”
“Who?”
“Wen Nan Tian!”
After hearing Su Mu Yu’s words, everyone followed his gaze and saw at the end of the street, under a drizzle, two handsome young men walking side by side, holding an umbrella together.
The one leading the way, however, was as if he were strolling through the rain.
But upon closer inspection, they realized that not only was there no rain on his body, but even his shoes were completely dry, as if he wasn’t walking on the muddy ground in the drizzle, but on a clean and tidy canvas, completely free of dust.
“He is Wen Nan Tian?!”
Su Chang He’s pupils constricted, in the midst of this drizzle, he was completely dry, with not a single drop of rain on him, and his shoes were clean, his steps seemingly slow, but the distance of each step was far, just in the blink of an eye, a few breaths of shock from them, he was already standing before them from the end of the street.
This level of meticulous control over his true qi, not one person present could achieve it.
It was just that…
They all looked at Luo Xuan, who was shocked dumbstruck, and usually loved to put on a show and draw attention, with a shared sense of understanding.
He felt that he might have something in common with Wen Nan Tian.
He was simply too showy!
“Thank you all for waiting.”
Wen Nan Tian’s voice reached them before he did, then in the next instant, he was already standing before everyone, like a shadow, his gaze swept over everyone, his voice carried a hint of strangeness, “It seems like you haven’t invited me alone.”
Lei Meng Sha, Luo Xuan, Gu Jian Men, Su Mu Yu.
They had all met before, either as defeated opponents of Wen Nan Tian.
As for the other person, the gravedigger Su Chang He, was no stranger, plus the murmurs within Qing Yue Lou, Wen Nan Tian knew that tonight was bound to be lively!
“Haha, Young Master Nan Tian, this, there was a bit of an accident.” Even with Lei Meng Sha’s thick skin and loose tongue, he was momentarily at a loss for words, not knowing how to go on.
Would he directly tell Wen Nan Tian that the reason for inviting so many young talents from the Southwest Path tonight was half for the purpose of dealing with him?
He felt that if he said that, he might be directly beaten to death by Wen Nan Tian.
“Oh!”
Wen Nan Tian’s reaction was unexpectedly calm, he simply responded calmly, then directly followed Luo Xuan into Qing Yue Lou.
“The person we’re dealing with tonight is him?” Su Chang He had a constipated expression on his face as he looked at Su Mu Yu and the remaining Lei Meng Sha and Gu Jian Men at the door.
“Half of it is.”
Gu Jian Men did not hide it, this was originally his intention when he personally wrote the invitation to Su Mu Yu.
“Farewell!”
Su Chang He cupped his fist in salute, turned and was about to walk away in the rain.
Just now, Wen Nan Tian had only glanced at him, yet he felt a chill run through his entire body, a killer’s intuition told him that if he were to face this person, he would die a miserable death.
Su Chang He was still young, and didn’t want to die yet.
Especially not without any reward for dying.
Su Mu Yu did not stop him, or even glance at the playful Su Chang He, he simply asked coldly, “What are you thinking? If you want to kill him, please excuse me, I’m not joining in.”
“Of course not!”
A trace of an amused expression appeared on Gu Jian Men’s stern face: “We have no grievances with Wen Nan Tian, why would we want to kill him? To deal with him doesn’t necessarily mean we have to harm him, as for what we are doing, you will soon find out.”
“Come on, let’s go in, I promise you won’t regret it.”
“I heard from Gu Jian Men that you teamed up with him but couldn’t withstand Wen Nan Tian’s attack, you just left like that, don’t you want to avenge your defeat and defeat him?”
Lei Meng Sha was trying to stir things up.
“Not really.”
Su Mu Yu’s answer surprised Lei Meng Sha.
“What?”
“Just kidding.”
Su Mu Yu said, taking Su Chang He and walking inside.
“Joking with a straight face?” Lei Meng Sha looked at their backs, his body suddenly shuddered: “Hiss, this joke is not funny at all, it’s rather cold.”
