Chapter 53: Five Missing One, Outer Sect Gathering

Lu Chen stared at the communication jade talisman, in which a message was flashing.

His fingertips touched it lightly, and a line of handwriting emerged on the jade talisman like flowing water:

【"Junior Brother Lu, Outer Sect West Garden Small Saint Leisure Manor, come quickly!"】

Lu Chen fell into thought.

Small Saint Leisure Manor.

That is a quite famous restaurant in the outer sect, and the price is not low.

Just as he was thinking, the message flashed anxiously again.

【"Are you there?"】

【"Are you there? Are you there?"】

This communication jade talisman is a masterpiece of the Shenxiao Sect.

As long as you are within the sect's territory, you only need to add the other party's jade talisman number to "Jade Talisman Dao Friends," and you can chat freely.

The convenience of this object is like the "Qiuqiu Number" of the modern era.

It's just a pity that it hasn't developed a "Moments" function, and can only interact and chat.

Lu Chen could not help but sigh that there is no lack of geniuses in this world who can create such magical objects.

He touched the jade talisman lightly, his fingertips flowing with faint spiritual energy.

If it were yesterday's meridian stagnation, where spiritual energy was difficult to inhale and exhale, most messages would not be able to be replied to.

He quickly replied with a question mark: 【?】

Zhou Liang's message followed closely:

【"This Great Zhou Divine Kingdom outer sect gathering is full of beautiful senior sisters and junior sisters, beauties like clouds, come quickly!"】

Lu Chen: 【"No time."】

However!

Zhou Liang did not seem to give up, sending two more messages in succession.

【There are also junior sisters from Luoshui, it's a pity to miss it!】

【There are even inner sect peerless senior sisters, tonight is a big gathering!】

【Five missing one, come quickly!】

Lu Chen: 【No time.】

His body has recovered at this moment, and he was planning to conduct a Small Heavenly Circuit cycle in the afternoon; now that he can finally cultivate, he should refuse all useless social interactions.

In his view, those beautiful junior sisters and senior sisters, although eye-catching, are ultimately just passing clouds.

Of course, there is one most important reason!

These gatherings, except for the last time Wang Yunxi held a banquet for her promotion to the inner sect, other similar gatherings are AA.

Lu Chen is as poor as a church mouse.

Don't call me for activities over three spirit stones.

Furthermore!

So what if there are beautiful junior sisters and senior sisters? You can only look but can't do anything; when my cultivation takes off, won't I have everything!

No need to rush for a moment!

I, Lu Chen, have lofty aspirations and should have the ambitions of a swan.

Even if there are JK, white socks, and black silk tonight.

I, Lu Chen, will not go at all.

After replying, he picked up the pot and continued washing the rice.

Messages flashed on the jade talisman.

Zhou Liang: 【There is an inner sect senior brother funding it, meals included!】

Lu Chen saw this, threw the pot away, and didn't even wash it.

The restaurant's food is much more fragrant than what I cook.

Lu Chen: 【Logging on!】

Zhou Liang: 【?】

Lu Chen: 【Coming right away, coming right away.】

Zhou Liang: 【Good, good, good, tonight our brothers will kill all sides.】

The sun had already passed the zenith and it was afternoon.

Lu Chen simply tidied up and walked toward the Small Saint Leisure Manor with light steps.

Zhou Liang's messages on the jade talisman were still non-stop:

【Junior Brother Lu, let me tell you, several junior sisters tonight are absolutely beautiful, do you understand? Several of the most beautiful junior sisters from outside have all come.】

【The fairy in my heart will also arrive gracefully; I am feeling agitated and hard to control myself.】

Messages non-stop.

Lu Chen chose to turn a blind eye directly.

However, just at this moment, a special message caught his attention.

【Xie Wanwan, requests to be added as a Jade Talisman Dao Friend.】

Xie Wanwan?

The little rich woman wants to add me as a talisman friend.

This is my biggest creditor, so I must be careful to serve her well.

Just as he was about to agree.

【Xie Wanwan, withdrew the request to add Jade Talisman Dao Friend.】

Lu Chen:?

What is the situation? He was suspicious in his heart.

However, not long after, the same message appeared again.

【Xie Wanwan, requests to be added as a Jade Talisman Dao Friend.】

【Xie Wanwan, withdrew the request to add Jade Talisman Dao Friend.】

Again?

What's wrong with the little rich woman, or is there a problem with the communication jade talisman?

Always going in and out? And not fully coming in.

Don't do this next time.

After going back and forth a few times, there was no movement.

Lu Chen didn't care anymore.

Shenxiao Sect Outer Sect, West Garden Market.

One of the liveliest places in the outer sect.

On both sides of the street, shops were lined up, and colorful goods were dazzling.

The shouting of sellers was one after another, endless.

Lu Chen walked all the way, feeling similar to the "commercial street" of his past life.

The goods in it were naturally not worldly, but some magic tools and spiritual medicines for cultivation.

In this hustle and bustle!

Lu Chen stopped his steps, his gaze attracted by a towering restaurant.

Above the lintel.

The four large characters "Small Saint Leisure Manor" were engraved with flying dragons and dancing phoenixes.

He stepped into the restaurant, and the maid at the door immediately greeted him.

She led Lu Chen through the winding corridor and arrived in front of a quiet private room.

Lu Chen said a thank you.

It made the maid blush.

"Yu Shixiong, you are too polite."

Lu Chen was a bit puzzled, why are girls so shy..

He tidied his clothes.

Eating for free, I am a professional.

Pushed the door and entered.

The noise rushed toward him; it was quite lively inside.

Behind the door, a suddenly enlightened space came into view, as if stepping into a summer resort.

Green grass spread out, and water flowed in the river.

A magic array was set up inside the roof, and a gentle breeze blew, bringing a trace of coolness, making people feel refreshed.

Dozens of tables were placed, and the dazzling array of spiritual fruits and spiritual wine emitted an alluring fragrance, making people drool.

In the very center, a stage was built.

There was the sound of zithers and lutes, and dancing girls dancing gracefully.

Lu Chen looked around.

Found that many outer sect disciples were already sitting around the tables; they were either drinking freely or talking in low voices, and the whole atmosphere was extremely lively.

Lu Chen felt as if he had entered the wrong venue.

Came to—

Shenxiao Sect "Bar"!

Among these people, Lu Chen also found several familiar faces; after all, they were all gatherings of outer sect disciples of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they had many intersections with each other.

"Is that Yu Shixiong Lu?"

"Yu Shixiong Lu, it's been a long time."

"Junior Brother Lu, I didn't expect you to come too."

Facing these enthusiastic greetings, Lu Chen naturally returned the courtesy one by one, chatting with everyone.

However!

Lu Chen noticed that some people's expressions were slightly hesitant, and they looked at him a few more times before confirming his identity.

This made him a bit curious.

"Yu Shixiong Lu, it's been a few days, you have changed a lot." Someone could not help but say.

Lu Chen smiled slightly and replied:

"Yu Shixiong Chen, you are joking, I am still the same."

Although he was a bit suspicious in his heart, he did not delve too deeply.

Just find Zhou Liang first.

In the crowd, Lu Chen looked around, searching for Zhou Liang's figure.

Not long after!

Lu Chen saw Zhou Liang chatting enthusiastically with several young men and women at a table in the distance.

Zhou Liang was dressed gracefully and looked radiant.

Lu Chen smiled and walked toward Zhou Liang, greeting him:

"Yu Shixiong Zhou, long time no see."

Zhou Liang saw Lu Chen, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he quickly stood up to welcome him:

"Junior Brother Lu, you finally came! Come quickly, I will introduce you to several friends."

"Five missing one."

Saying this, Zhou Liang pulled Lu Chen toward those young men and women, preparing to introduce him.

"Wait a minute, Junior Brother Lu, why are you..."

Zhou Liang's eyes went back and forth, spinning on Lu Chen's face.

Lu Chen was puzzled.

"What's wrong?"

"Do I have flowers on my face?"
