Chapter 173 Let the Banquet Begin!

Chu Manor!

These two characters were sharp and imposing. Sword Qi could be felt dashing toward the sky.

“That is such a rash decision! You should have thought it over first.” Long Ao said. He felt this name was not majestic enough.

Chu Xun gave a gentle smile and said jokingly, “When the day for you to name your own manor comes, you can consider buying ‘Manor of the Invincible Dragon’ from Hanlong. Is that majestic enough for you?”

“I won’t sell it. I will keep it for myself.” Chen Hanlong said before Long Ao could say anything.

Chu Xun was stunned at his response, then he smiled slightly.

Long Ao’s eyelids were throbbing and the corners of his mouth twitched violently.

They then had a discussion for some time. Long Ao felt that the roads on Qianlong Mountain were not grand enough. Other sects had stone staircases leading up to their gates and there were either dangerous mountain ranges or bridges hanging over abysses. On the other hand, Qianlong Mountain only had broad, asphalt roads.

Chu Xun assured him that it would not be a problem. He then set up a few illusory formations.

Boom!

A giant waterfall appeared. Water poured down from above with overwhelming speed and with an unstoppable flow, as if coming straight from the sky. The deafening sound of water hitting the ground resonated across the mountain.

The others were already used to Chu Xun’s unusual practices, yet their eyes were still wide open in disbelief.

“Cultivators truly have amazing skills.” Long Ao thought.

One would never know that this giant waterfall was only an illusion, unless one traveled down the cliff.

...

A couple of huge white cranes hovered in the sky. Their cries could be heard across the mountain.

Howl!

At the foot of the mountain, at the edge of the forest, a black bear of about five to six meters in height thumped its chest and stomped through the ground. His strength even made the ground shake. Opening its arms, it pulled up a tree with a thick trunk with ease. Its strength was horrifying.

Boom!

A few enormous rocks fell from the cliff as a giant pangolin popped its head out from a stone wall.

There were also rocks in unique shapes protruding from the cliff and plants reflected rays of sunshine at the foot of the mountain. Many unfamiliar yet mesmerizing sceneries appeared all of a sudden.

“How about now? Is this grand and deterring enough?” Chu Xun asked with a smile.

Everyone simply nodded.

Even Long Ao fixed his eyes on the amazing scenery before him. “Compared to this place, my courtyard in the capital city is as shabby as a toilet... No, mine is probably worse than a toilet.” He thought.

“I will settle down here from now on.” Long Ao announced in an overbearing manner, instantly.

“There probably are not that many places in the entire Huaxia that can compare to Qianlong Mountain. Training here would speed up my progress tremendously.” He thought.

“Sure.” Chu Xun was more than glad to welcome him. With a terrifying figure like Long Ao, even should something happen to him, Qianlong Mountain would still be preserved for hundreds of years and more.

In the following couple of days, Chu Xun started his busy preparations for his alchemical practices.

On the other hand, Chen Hanlong continued with his preparations for the opening ceremony of Chu Manor along with Sun Ying. They were in charge of the duties in the ordinary world, while Mo Xinghe was in charge of those in Martial Tao world.

Chu Xun planned to organize a grand banquet on the opening day of his manor. Prominent figures from all over the world had been invited.

This piece of news soon spread across the entire Martial Tao world like a tornado.

Most of the people in Martial Tao world had only heard of Chu Xun, they had never met him in person.

Some time ago, there were people who waited for days in Wuji Sect to witness his power. Alas, Chu Xun made his way to Poison Sect instead, so their wishes did not come true in the end.

Now that he was inviting everyone to his banquet, it would be silly to turn down his invitation.

The entire Martial Tao world went crazy once they heard the news and groups of people started rushing to Gujiang City.

For a while, Gujiang City was facing the issue of overcrowding.

The one having the worst headache was the highest official of Gujiang City. His fears and worries were well justified, since the city was suddenly swarmed with many fierce-looking people.

Moreover, most of these people were not law abiding. Some hit the policemen till they became unconscious, just because they were asked a few questions. They even twisted the police pistols with their bare hands.

Chen Hanlong may be a rough person, yet he was meticulous. After reporting the current situation to Chu Xun, he made the following announcement — “No one shall cause any trouble in Gujiang City, or Chu Xun will have a talk with you in person.”

“What... Chu the Devil would visit us in person? To talk?” People thought as they sensed the real meaning behind the announcement. Everyone knew that Chu Xun was not one for talking. He always preferred the simple and cruel method of resolving matters. By the time he came to visit, one should be ready for a “talk” with Hades instead.

Chu Xun’s name was indeed influential. After all, his titles of “The Devil” and “The Cruel” were a reflection of the number of people who had died in his hands.

With the announcement, everyone from Martial Tao world did not dare to cause any trouble. No one would want to disobey Chu Xun’s order over some petty matters. Some even controlled their foul dispositions during those days, while waiting for the grand opening of Chu Manor.

All hotels in Gujiang City were booked by Chen Hanlong. Everyone could enjoy a free stay and free meals as long as they were here for the opening ceremony.

...

A few days later.

The day of the opening had finally arrived. Millions of firecrackers were lit at the foot of Qianlong Mountain and everything was covered in dark smoke.

After the lighting of the firecrackers, Chen Hanlong waved and said, “Get ready to welcome our guests!”

Bang!

Mo Xinghe kicked him with all his might, because his words really made people want to beat him up all the time.

Chen Hanlong did not mind that at all. He dusted his pants and kept laughing, like a child.

Mo Xinghe looked at him contemptuously, for he knew why Chen Hanlong was so happy. As a businessman, he was always generous when things involved people from the Martial Tao world, because it would affect his reputation. He booked all the hotels and provided free accommodation for everyone, for he saw profits in this generous act.

There was a giant cargo truck parked a few meters away from them. Chen Hanlong had hired the truck to load all the gifts from the guests.

Just as they were talking, a huge group of people could be seen approaching, and there were even more following them. Even Chen Hanlong felt nervous after seeing so many people.

“Jingyue Sect would like to congratulate Mr. Chu on the opening of his manor. We brought some presents for him and we hope he will like them” An elder said as he came forward with some people following behind him and brought out a beautifully crafted box.

“I am Chen Hanlong. I welcome you as the housekeeper of Chu Manor!” Chen Hanlong replied with great enthusiasm. Judging by the packaging, he already knew there was something unique and precious inside the box.

Seeing Chen Hanlong with his creepy smile, the elder immediately reached out to protect his granddaughter. His eyes looked at him watchfully.

Chen Hanlong did not notice the elder’s behavior, which made Mo Xinghe even more embarrassed. “Why do I have to work next to such a shameless person? I should have helped in the kitchen at least that would spare me such embarrassment.” He thought.

Chen Hanlong passed the box to Titan, who took out a fake Spirit Stone from the box. Mysterious carvings were engraved on the stone. It was a key to activate some kind of magic formation.

Chen Hanlong then made a simple gesture in the air. It did not make any sound, yet it was enough to amaze everyone present. His gesture was just like opening a zip, allowing everyone to gain a glimpse of the manor. What they saw was as beautiful as a kind of wonderland. It was simply breathtaking.

Seeing that everyone was amazed by his ability, Chen Hanlong straightened his posture and felt extremely proud of himself.

“In the past, anyone here would be able to kill me with a finger. Well, they still can do that today, but will they dare? They had better show me some respect after seeing what I did.” He thought.

Chen Hanlong was feeling a bit overconfident, yet he would never forget who granted him the power he had today. He believed that the best decision he ever made in life was to be Chu Xun’s sidekick.

“Please, make yourselves at home!” Chen Hanlong ushered the elder from Jingyue Sect inside.

“Kong Kong Sect wish to congratulate Mr. Chu on his new manor!” A man with the face similar to a monkey said, as he stepped forward and presented his gift. There was a hint of shrewdness in his eyes that were as small as peas.

Hearing that Kong Kong Sect was here, Mo Xinghe and many others looked at this man with strange expressions on their faces.

“Is there something wrong?” Chen Hanlong sensed the change in the atmosphere.

“Do you know what the Kong Kong Sect can do?” Mo Xinghe asked him in a whisper. His tone was full of contempt.

Chen Hanlong shook his head.

“They are all thieves. They were experts in Acrobatic Jumping and stealing. They can even steal the underwear you are wearing in a split second.” Mo Xinghe said.

Chen Hanlong, however, looked excited all of a sudden. “Are they like Sikong the Star Stealer from the novel ‘Legend of Lu Xiaofeng’?” Chen Hanlong asked loudly.

The man with the monkey face was getting a bit irritated when he heard what Mo Xinghe said about them, yet he showed a bright smile when he heard Chen Hanlong’s words.

“You can’t let them in.” Mo Xinghe said.

“Why are you discriminating against thieves? Chu Liuxiang is also a thief, yet he steals to do good.” Chen Hanlong said as he questioned Mo Xinghe.

Mo Xinghe was not very happy. He curled his lips and said, “He can’t enter.”

Chen Hanlong suddenly asked mysteriously, “Could it be they once stole from you?”

Mo Xinghe blushed immediately and said angrily, “Nonsense.”

Chen Hanlong started laughing, for Mo Xinghe’s reaction already explained everything. He asked with a naughty smile, “Did they once steal your underwear?”

“You want to fight?” Mo Xinghe grew mad at his teasing.

Chen Hanlong did not mind his attitude. He tried to reassure him, “It is okay, at least they did not try to steal your... important stuff.”

“Stop it now.” Mo Xinghe could no longer suppress his anger.

“Okay, okay, I will stop...” Chen Hanlong said as he suppressed his urge to burst into laughter. He then turned to the man from Kong Kong Sect and said with a smile, “This way, please.”

“Thanks. My name is Sikong the Moon Stealer, come look for me if you ever need a favor.” The man dashed past Chen Hanlong once he finished his sentence. He was as fast as lightning.

“Nonsense...” Mo Xinghe thought with contempt. “Shame on you for calling yourself the Moon Stealer. Why don’t you call yourself the Sun Stealer instead?”

“Wangyue Sect is here to congratulate... ”

“Lingren Sect is here to visit... ”

“Rock Sect is here to send our wishes...”

A delicate female voice was heard and the crowd immediately separated and made a pathway for them. A teenage girl who had smoky eyes and wore leather shorts, walked forward with two elders following her. Their internal energy was shockingly imposing.

She was the problematic girl who had met Chu Xun at Linghang Auction House in Yunyan City.

She was tall and lean, and her shorts were extremely brief, revealing her long and fair legs. People around her only dared to take a glimpse of her secretly and moved their eyes away quickly. They would not want to offend Rock Sect. Both the elders behind the girl were grade-six Grandmasters who had horrifying strength. It would be a terrible mistake to mess with them.

Mo Xinghe rushed in front of Chen Hanlong, for he was afraid that Chen Hanlong would say something inappropriate again.

Chen Hanlong was no idiot. Seeing the others’ reactions, he knew this problematic girl covered in heavy make-up was no ordinary figure.

The girl stepped forward. She blew out a smoke ring as she looked at Mo Xinghe and opened her eyes wide, revealing her extremely long fake eyelashes. “Luckily she is not wearing a hat.” Chen Hanlong thought. “Otherwise those long eyelashes would have flipped the hat”

“Where’s my boyfriend?” The girl asked.

...

“Huh?” Mo Xinghe was baffled. “This girl is not only problematic, but also weird. How does she expect me to know where her boyfriend is? It is not even my business.”

“He is probably at the supermarket doing grocery shopping.” Chen Hanlong murmured to himself.

People trained in martial arts have good eyesight and hearing, so everyone heard what Chen Hanlong said. They were all trying not to laugh.

Those two grade-six Grandmasters suddenly looked at Chen Hanlong, overpowering him with a great sense of horror.

Chen Hanlong felt his blood freezing in his veins. His forehead was covered in sweat.

“Seniors, please forgive him. He does not always know what to say...” Mo Xinghe explained immediately.

The problematic girl waved her hand and the two elders no longer looked so fierce.

...

“Whoa! That was close!” Chen Hanlong thought as he gasped in fright. His face was pale and the back of his shirt was already soaked in sweat.

“For the sake of my boyfriend, I will let it pass this time.” The problematic girl said with contempt.

“May I ask who your boyfriend is, miss?” Mo Xinghe asked curiously.

“He is the master of this place, Chu Xun.” The problematic girl said.

Mo Xinghe opened his eyes in disbelief and astonishment. He almost stopped breathing for a second.

Chen Hanlong gasped even more rapidly, and he started coughing violently.

Sun Ying and Titan were dumbfounded as well.

“What the... Is that even possible?” Many people had the same thought.
