Finally, Xu Que and Er Gouzi left that alley!

He didn't care what the burly man would eventually do, nor did he care what the woman or Young Master Wang next door would be like. Anyway, it was just lightly, I came, lightly, I left, I waved my sleeves, only taking away an invitation.

As for the rest, it's none of my business!

"Holy crap, kid, how did you discover that there was a problem with the words in that note just now? Too 666!" Er Gouzi followed behind, shocked.

"Hmph, this kind of old cliché, who in my Zha Tian Bang wouldn't be able to see it?" Xu Que snorted coldly and proudly, striding away.

"This God Venerable is also from the Zha Tian Bang, why couldn't I see it? Eh, kid, don't walk away, explain clearly!"

One man and one dog went far away!

Xu Que walked along the way, also examining the invitation, and roughly understood the Dong family's banquet this time. Specifically, they were all elegant programs, such as composing poems and couplets, playing the zither and singing, and making friends through martial arts, everything was available.

For Xu Que, these things didn't count as anything at all!

With a system in hand, what can't he do?

The only thing that puzzled him was that the invitation actually said at the end that all exchanges would not distinguish between winning and losing!

"Strange, if there's no distinction between winning and losing, then what's the point of competing? Why recruit a son-in-law?" Xu Que wondered.

Er Gouzi took a look and asked curiously: "Could it be that they are looking at feelings? Looking at the face?"

Xu Que was immediately startled: "Then wouldn't I be sure to win?"

"Holy crap! Then this God Venerable wants to participate too!" Er Gouzi immediately touched the hair on its head, looking proud.

But the next moment, it put its paw down, wrinkled its face, and roared: "Damn, this Teddy dog is crazy, it put a bunch of shampoo on this God Venerable's head and didn't even rinse it. Kid, take this God Venerable to wash its hair first!"

"Wash my ass, there is life in this shampoo, you can't just wash it off!" Xu Que replied.

"What? Shampoo with life?" Er Gouzi was immediately startled and laughed wildly: "There is actually such shampoo in the world? 666, if this God Venerable eats it, wouldn't it be a great supplement?"

"Don't..."

As soon as Xu Que shouted, Er Gouzi had already put its paw into its mouth.

Holy crap!

Xu Que felt nauseous, covered his forehead, the picture was too beautiful, he really couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

He turned and left directly, holding the invitation, and started asking people about the location of the Dong family.

However, the Dong family was very easy to find. Asking casually revealed it was located in the center of the city, with pavilions built higher than anyone else's, magnificent and imposing.

When Xu Que and Er Gouzi appeared at the entrance, looking up at this Dong family building, they couldn't help but be lost in thought for a while.

"Holy crap, even the Japanese tower isn't as high as this! Aren't these people afraid of falling to their deaths by building such high floors?" Er Gouzi exclaimed.

"Who would be afraid of falling to their death these days?" Xu Que smiled faintly.

Looking from afar, the entire Dong family building was indeed imposing, towering into the clouds.

He strode forward, handed over the invitation, and was soon enthusiastically received by a servant.

Before entering the building, one had to pass through a spacious courtyard, where there were ponds, pavilions, and rockeries. The surrounding walls and roofs were carved with fierce beasts, scales and claws dancing, whiskers flying, vivid and lifelike, as if they would soar into the sky at any time.

"Young Master Wang, I will take you here. Please feel free!"

Soon, Xu Que and Er Gouzi successfully arrived outside the pavilion. After the servant said this, he hurried away to welcome the other guests.

There were quite a few young masters participating in the banquet this time, and with the First Domain City being so large, no matter how many servants there were, they were all busy.

Before Xu Que stepped into the pavilion, he had already discovered that quite a few people had arrived inside.

The decoration inside the pavilion was also extraordinary and luxurious, with golden roofs and stone walls, colorful, and the floor was covered with brocade carpets.

The surroundings were filled with many small tables, with all kinds of tea and snacks on the tables. After the guests arrived, they found their own seats and talked to each other.

Xu Que directly found a seat that was very forward but not too conspicuous.

This kind of seat is a god-seat for pretending. If you want to be low-key, it's easy to be ignored, and if you want to be stunning, you can become the focus of everyone's attention in the room without being obscured.

Er Gouzi was even more straightforward. As soon as it arrived, it didn't say a word and rushed toward the tea and snacks, starting a wolf-like harvest.

A while later, there were more and more people in the hall, all handsome young masters, each of whom looked quite capable, and some even had extraordinary backgrounds.

Xu Que remained cold and aloof throughout, sitting in place and closing his eyes to rest, without being approached for conversation.

Because there were quite a few people like this pretender in the room.

It wasn't until more than half an hour later that the hall was almost full of people.

A maid walked out and shouted in a crisp voice: "The servant, on behalf of the young lady, would like to say to all the young masters, thank you all for coming. Next, the banquet begins!"

As soon as the words fell, a graceful figure suddenly walked over from the center position.

It was just that the gauze curtains were hanging low there, creating a hazy and mysterious atmosphere, where only the figure could be seen, but not the real person.

Beside the curtain hooks, strings of sachets were hanging, emitting wisps of refreshing fragrance.

Others might not see anything, but Xu Que was different. He condensed his True Essence, narrowed his eyes slightly, and directly perceived everything behind the gauze curtains.

Following that, he was slightly stunned.

Behind the gauze curtains sat a young woman who was beautiful and stunning. In terms of temperament and appearance, she was no worse than Liu Jingning and the others.

But the temperament on her body appeared very quiet and beautiful, with a bit of innocence, and a trace of Xiao Rou's shadow.

Xu Que couldn't help but want to return to the Four Great Continents even faster.

Ever since Xiao Rou was resurrected, she had been cultivating in the Southern Continent Secret Realm. He hadn't truly seen her again. Now that he saw this Dong family young lady, Xu Que couldn't help but start missing Xiao Rou.

"Thank you all for your support, young masters. This banquet today is intended for exchange and learning. You are all talented people. As the host today, I will start by throwing a brick to attract jade and present a small poem!"

At this time, the Dong family young lady spoke personally, took out a scroll of words from behind the gauze curtains, and handed it to the maid.

The maid carried the note and walked out, reciting the poem.

Instantly, the guests in the hall applauded one after another, with countless praises and flattery.

Only Xu Que sat in his original seat, indifferent and cold, shaking his head slightly.

"I have heard that the Dong family young lady is learned and talented, and today I have finally seen it. I also wrote a poem recently, please give me some advice, young lady and everyone!" At this time, a young man stood up, polite and courteous.

Immediately, he began to recite the poem.

Everyone listened quietly, and until the poem was finished, the hall rang with applause again.

Only Xu Que was still shaking his head, his face seemingly written with two words—"Trash"!

After a few breaths, someone else stood up and recited a poem again.

This time it was a good poem, attracting many people to stand up and applaud in praise.

But Xu Que was still shaking his head.

Afterward, no matter who recited the poem, Xu Que was shaking his head, showing disdain and cold smiles.

Many people noticed these actions of his, but none of them paid attention, turning a blind eye, and no one opened their mouths to scold him.

Instantly, Xu Que was puzzled.

What do you mean by this?

Is your heart really that big?

This Pretension Saint's head is almost broken from shaking, such an obvious mockery, and you still don't open your mouths to scold me. How is this supposed to let me pretend and slap faces?

If you act like this, what about my face?

"Hmph, it seems I have to pretend even harder!" Xu Que snorted coldly in his heart, just as he was about to stand up.

The voice of the Dong family young lady came from behind the gauze curtains.

"You are all truly learned and talented. I have benefited a lot today, so let the poetry exchange end here."

As soon as the words fell, Xu Que's face turned black instantly.

Damn, it's over already?

I didn't even have time to pretend, how could it be over?

Does this mean failing to pretend and getting fucked instead?

"Everyone!"

At this time, the Dong family young lady spoke again, her voice melodious, crisp and pleasant.

"I think you all know that I have always liked music. Why don't we exchange and learn from each other's zither and music skills next? I wonder what you all think?"

As soon as she asked, everyone in the room responded immediately.

"Good, actually I also like music!"

"Haha, I happen to have some research on music as well, today I can just happen to show my ugliness!"

"Dong family young lady, I boldly ask you to play a song first, so that we can learn from it!"

"Yes, yes, that's right, Dong family young lady, I actually have a serious illness and don't have much time left. I want to hear you play a song before I die, so I can close my eyes in peace."

Everyone shouted one after another.

Xu Que didn't stay idle this time either. As soon as the Dong family young lady proposed to exchange music skills, he had already summoned the system, entered the mall interface, and redeemed the song collection.

He missed the poetry exchange just now, so he absolutely couldn't miss this music competition.

Since these people didn't want to take the initiative to send their faces to be slapped, this Pretension Saint had to take action himself.

Today, no one can stop me from pretending!

I've decided to pretend with this music competition!
