Chapter 289: The Little Prince
Prince Xin smiled as he watched the crowd cheering, feeling somewhat proud in his heart. Net
Speaking of which, cultivators used to appear frequently in the mansions of great nobles and wealthy families. But later, for some reason, they gradually disappeared and didn't associate much with mortals anymore. This made people like Immortal Masters almost become legends, and even he, as a royal relative, was seeing a real cultivator for the first time.
Now that the old Daoist had shown this beautiful spell, shocking everyone on the spot, it naturally made Prince Xin feel that he had a lot of face.
Prince Xin naturally didn't know that the period when cultivators frequently appeared in the mortal world was the time before the appearance of the Immortal Ascension Assembly.
At that time, some loose cultivators who felt that Foundation Establishment was hopeless and low-tier cultivators in cultivation families gave up on themselves and were willing to enjoy the glory and wealth of mortals in the mortal world. But once the Immortal Ascension Assembly appeared, cultivators all had the hope of fighting for Foundation Establishment, so naturally, they all hid in deep mountains to practice cultivation techniques, and would no longer appear in the mortal world.
Of course, cultivators like Yu Yu Zitong who couldn't hold onto their cultivation heart and fell when tempering in the mortal world were exceptions. However, there were not many such cultivators. Even those who really became guests of great nobles and wealthy families would hide it in every possible way, not wanting outsiders to know.
After all, as a cultivator, being a guest for a mortal was a shameful thing in the cultivation world.
As a result, although there were quite a few cultivators in the mortal world, very few were willing to associate with the powerful, and even those who were willing to be guests of the wealthy would have their news strictly hidden by these families to prevent being ridiculed by other acquaintances.
And these guests watching had never been in contact with other cultivators, so naturally, they were all shocked by the old Daoist's hand of controlling flames.
In this way, amidst the awe-filled gazes of the crowd, the white-haired old Daoist returned to the hall with a bit of arrogance.
At this time, those who hadn't been tested yet naturally couldn't wait to call out "Immortal Master" and crowded over again, hoping that this old immortal would show mercy and accept their children or nephews as disciples.
The white-haired old Daoist was also energetic and accepted everyone, checking their immortal roots one by one.
But unfortunately, among the remaining people, including the Hua-surnamed old man and Qin Yan's juniors, none were found to have spiritual roots; they were all very ordinary mortals.
This news hit these newly checked people quite hard, and they had to return to their seats dejectedly.
It seemed that this immortal fate was truly not so easy to have!
In this way, the rarity of the immortal root of the fat young man named "Tong Jing" became even more prominent, making others look at him with extreme envy, and making the father and son standing beside the old Daoist open their mouths wide, unable to close them.
Han Li watched Qin Yan bring the dejected Qin family young masters and young ladies back to his side with a normal expression, and he looked somewhat embarrassed.
"I still don't accept it. Why does that useless person have an immortal root, but we don't? Among us, who isn't a hundred times better than him!" A Qin family young lady who looked small and exquisite kept muttering unconvincingly.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense! You don't have this fate, what's there to complain about?" Qin Yan's face sank, and he scolded the little girl, then sat down.
This sentence immediately made this famous little pepper of the Qin family pout, still looking full of indignation.
At this time, the Hua-surnamed old man also brought that pair of young man and woman and walked over. Without saying a word, he sat down beside Qin Yan.
After the two looked at each other, they suddenly smiled bitterly at the same time, somewhat like brothers in adversity.
"Brother Qin, it seems that Tong Fatty is going to show off soon!" The Hua-surnamed old man said jokingly.
"Cough! This is also very normal. Who told him to have a good son, and he will have an Immortal Master as a backing soon!" Qin Yan sighed and said somewhat helplessly.
"However..."
The Hua-surnamed old man and Qin Yan chatted one sentence after another.
However, although they were talking, they still paid attention to the actions of Immortal Master Wu and Prince Xin with one heart and two minds.
Prince Xin, seeing that the juniors of all the guests had tested their immortal roots, turned his head and whispered something to a maid beside him.
As a result, the little maid immediately retreated from the side door. I don't know what she was ordered to do.
Prince Xin then turned back and said slowly with a smile:
"Below, to celebrate the recovery of my beloved concubine's strange illness and the fact that my son and this Tong nephew have been accepted as disciples by Immortal Master Wu, let everyone celebrate properly!"
After saying these words, Prince Xin didn't hesitate to stretch out both hands and clap twice.
"Clap" "Clap"
As the applause sounded, from outside the main gate of the hall, pairs of neatly dressed servants and maids walked into the hall, holding black lacquer trays and serving dishes and bottles of fine wine.
Then they skillfully filled every table and poured pink fine wine like fat dew into every wine glass, making the fragrance of food and wine fill the hall in the blink of an eye.
"Come, I will toast everyone first!" Prince Xin took a wine glass from the servant who took the initiative to send it over, raised it high above his head, and said loudly.
"Prince, please!"
The atmosphere in the hall immediately rose amidst everyone drinking a cup with Prince Xin.
Not long after, many guests started to push cups and change lamps.
The banquet finally began!
Prince Xin and the concubine named Qing'er interspersed among the tables, chatting and laughing with some close friends, without any airs of a prince.
This prince's reputation was truly as good as Qin Yan and others said!
And that Immortal Master Wu didn't enter the banquet but walked away silently when Prince Xin raised his wine glass.
This made many people who still wanted to build a relationship with this Immortal Master during the banquet feel extremely disappointed.
However, thinking about it, this was very normal. How could a living immortal be like these vulgar people, drinking and having fun, eating fish and meat!
After thinking this through, these people gave up and truly opened their minds to eat and drink with others.
When the banquet was halfway through, Prince Xin even called a team of dancing girls from the mansion to dance palace dances, helping everyone to have fun, making the atmosphere truly reach a climax.
Just at this time, a white-clothed young man in his twenties walked out of the hall, looking gentle and elegant, with a slender figure, and every move was gentle and polite, absolutely meeting the dream lover image of most young girls.
"Ming'er, come and meet the uncles!" Prince Xin saw the young man and immediately greeted him happily.
Coincidentally, Prince Xin happened to come to the table of Qin Yan and others. So this gentle young man walked over with a smile.
"Greetings, two uncles!" The young man said politely.
"Don't dare! Little Prince, you are too polite."
Qin Yan and the Hua-surnamed old man didn't dare to be big and hurriedly stood up to return the salute.
"Hey! You two are his elders, it's only right for Ming'er to pay his respects to you, why be so polite?" Prince Xin said somewhat unhappily.
Qin Yan and the Hua-surnamed old man heard this, looked at each other, and showed some embarrassment.
It was true that he said so! But how could the two of them really treat this royal relative as their own junior!
But the two of them were also old and cunning, and after a few words, they changed the topic and introduced the juniors behind them to this bold prince, which was a rare opportunity for the juniors to show their faces!
Of course, Han Li was naturally included in Qin Yan's introduction.
When introducing Han Li, Prince Xin's eyes lit up, and he looked at Han Li several times with deep meaning, with a somewhat smiling expression. Clearly, this person also knew a few things about the content of the rumors.
This made the embarrassment that had just disappeared from Qin Yan's face surge up again.
"Ming'er, come over and meet this Nephew Han!"
I don't know what Prince Xin was thinking, but he actually let the little prince meet Han Li with a smile.
The little prince heard this and walked over, very politely called "Nephew Han," and then arched his hands at Han Li, always hanging a gentle expression on his face.
This gentle little prince, every move of his, made the few young ladies of the right age nearby look fascinated and unable to extricate themselves!
Han Li returned the salute with a clumsy appearance on the surface, as if he were too nervous and dull. But in his heart, he was shocked and could no longer maintain a calm heart.
When this little prince approached Han Li to salute, he actually gave him a dangerous feeling, just like that mansion steward, although the pressure was far less strong, it was definitely the same dangerous feeling without a doubt.
"What's going on?"
Han Li was shocked, and his heart fell into confusion.
