Chapter 122
"'Fight the Landlord'?"
A look of surprise flashed in Yin Luoxia's eyes: "Gambling technique?"
"Mm-hmm!"
Seeing that Lian Xing and the others had already started, Sikong Qianluo simply took out a new deck of cards and began to explain it to Yin Luoxia in a proper manner.
A minute later.
Yin Luoxia revealed a hint of a smile: "It seems quite interesting."
"Ah?"
Sikong Qianluo looked at Yin Luoxia with her large, dark eyes: "Elder Luoxia, you've already learned it?"
She had only just started.
Sikong Qianluo felt a bit depressed; she hadn't even had her fill of teaching yet.
"Did you invent this?"
Yin Luoxia looked up at Jiang Chen, a flash of brilliance in her eyes.
"You could say that."
Jiang Chen nodded and asked with a smile: "Why is Elder Luoxia free to come out and play today?"
Now that Sikong Changfeng was away.
Yin Luoxia needed to handle many things for the entire Snow Moon City.
"There shouldn't be anything going on in Snow Moon City these past few days."
Yin Luoxia said with a smile: "The Hero Banquet at the Lei Family Fort of the Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall is about to begin, and most of the Jianghu guests have rushed over in advance to join the fun, so Snow Moon City has suddenly become much quieter."
"Lei Family Hero Banquet?"
Hearing Yin Luoxia's words.
Jiang Chen frowned slightly, feeling a faint sense of unease in his heart.
"When does the Lei Family Hero Banquet start?"
"Tonight, of course."
Yin Luoxia looked at Jiang Chen with some confusion; the Hero Banquet was on the same day every year, and she thought Jiang Chen had known about it long ago.
"Then who from Snow Moon City went?"
"Of course, it's your Master, the Snow Moon Sword Immortal. You know, now our Snow Moon..."
Yin Luoxia was just about to explain, but found that Jiang Chen's figure had already disappeared.
She was startled by this sudden change!
She herself was at the Carefree Heaven Realm.
Although not comparable to the Five Great Sword Immortals and others.
But in the entire Northern Li Jianghu, she could be considered a powerhouse!
You know.
Even the City Lord of Wushuang City, Song Yanhui, had only just broken through to the Carefree Heaven Realm not long ago.
However.
She hadn't even seen how Jiang Chen disappeared just now.
Even though in these past two days.
She had already learned from the disciples of Snow Moon City that Jiang Chen possessed the strength of the Carefree Heaven Realm.
Yin Luoxia was still incredibly shocked.
The speed Jiang Chen had just displayed was clearly much more terrifying than that of an ordinary Carefree Heaven Realm martial artist.
"Hey, where did Junior Brother go?"
Sikong Qianluo heard the commotion and looked up subconsciously, only to find that Jiang Chen had disappeared.
And the others also dropped the playing cards in their hands one after another, their expressions gradually becoming solemn.
They had all seen Jiang Chen's reaction just now.
"What is this Hero Banquet?"
Just then.
Huang Rong looked at Yin Luoxia and asked: "And which Jianghu factions are participating? Can you tell me about it?"
She was naturally intelligent and saw the key point at a glance.
Hearing this, Yin Luoxia glanced at Huang Rong.
Although she hadn't met Huang Rong, since she appeared at Ye Ruoyi's place and looked very familiar with everyone in the courtyard, she didn't think much of it and directly began to explain.
"..."
"You mean... the Tang Men and the Lei family have been at odds for many years, and it was only through the mediation of Snow Moon City that they reconciled?"
Huang Rong's heart stirred.
Thinking of the current court affairs in Northern Li, it was not hard for her to connect many things.
"This Hero Banquet might have people targeting Snow Moon City."
Lian Xing pondered for a moment and also asked: "Are there many people in the current Northern Li Dynasty who can threaten the Sword Immortal?"
She had been in contact with Jiang Chen more than the others.
Coupled with her meticulous mind, Lian Xing even understood Jiang Chen better than Sikong Qianluo.
Just like now.
Lian Xing knew that the vast majority of people in the courtyard must like Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen was equally aware of this.
However.
Jiang Chen seemed to be doing it deliberately, never having pierced that layer of window paper.
Lian Xing hadn't been very clear about the reason before.
But now!
She finally understood; the reason for everything lay with Jiang Chen's Master, that Snow Moon Sword Immortal.
Hearing Lian Xing's words.
Yin Luoxia shook her head and said: "With Li Hanyi's strength, there are not many people in the entire Northern Li who can pose a threat to her, unless several powerhouses of the Carefree Heaven Realm take action at the same time."
"Sister Lian Xing, is the Second City Lord in danger?"
After listening for so long.
No matter how carefree Sikong Qianluo was, she understood.
She panicked instantly, and tears fell down: "Did Junior Brother go to find the Second City Lord?"
After saying this.
Sikong Qianluo grabbed her long spear and turned to chase after him.
Seeing this, Lian Xing hurriedly held her back and comforted her: "The Young Master's strength is even greater than mine; he definitely won't be in any danger!"
"Sister Lian Xing is lying!"
Sikong Qianluo didn't believe it at all; she knew Lian Xing's strength.
Just a while ago, Junior Brother had only just broken through to the Mortal Diamond Realm.
She had always wanted to spar with Junior Brother, but Junior Brother always refused with various excuses, clearly because he was afraid he couldn't beat her!
"Qianluo, Miss Lian Xing is telling the truth."
Just then.
Ye Ruoyi also came to Sikong Qianluo's side and said softly: "When the Young Master was treating me, he was actually already at the Carefree Heaven Realm."
"Sister Ye, is what you said true?"
Hearing Ye Ruoyi's words, Sikong Qianluo's eyes lit up instantly.
Clearly.
She trusted this Sister Ye, who had always doted on her, very much.
"Of course it's true."
Ye Ruoyi nodded with a smile, but her heart couldn't help but feel a bit panicked.
As the daughter of Grand General Ye Xiaoying, she had lived in the imperial city of Tianqi since she was a child, and she knew more about some things than many people.
For example, the terrifying Dark River.
Ye Ruoyi knew that it was actually a killer organization secretly supported by the imperial court.
And.
