Chapter 140
One only needed to stay in the mortal city of Snow Moon City for a few days to always see his figure.
However,
now for this Hero Banquet of the Lei family, the Snow Moon Sword Immortal had actually come in person!
And Grandfather Tang looked at the door with a solemn expression, an ominous premonition arising in his heart.
Li Hanyi.
How could she possibly appear at the Hero Banquet?
"Grandfather..."
Tang Huang and the other two also looked at Grandfather Tang with worried expressions.
As for the cooperation between the Tang Men and the Hidden River, as those whose status in the Tang family was second only to the few old masters, they were clearly aware of it.
Grandfather Tang glanced at the three and signaled them not to speak yet.
Although he didn't know how the Snow Moon Sword Immortal had escaped the Hidden River's ambush, since she had already appeared here, they could only respond to changes with constancy.
And as the Lei family head, Lei Qianhu,
upon hearing Lei Wuhen's voice, had already gone out to welcome her.
Whether it was her status as the Second City Master of Snow Moon City or as Li Hanyi's uncle, it was worth Lei Qianhu welcoming her personally.
Soon,
under everyone's gaze,
Lei Qianhu brought Li Hanyi in; she was dressed in white as pure as snow, with a peerless demeanor.
Although she was wearing a gray veil and her face could not be seen, that graceful figure made most of the people present unable to help but feel admiration.
He Qu and He Cong of the Sword Heart Tomb hurriedly arrived before Li Hanyi and bowed respectfully:
"Greetings, Miss!"
Although Li Hanyi hadn't returned to the Sword Heart Tomb for a long time,
she was, after all, the granddaughter of the Tomb Master Li Suwang, so the two still respected Li Hanyi very much.
"Greetings, Snow Moon Sword Immortal!"
"Greetings, Snow Moon Sword Immortal!"
"..."
In the hall,
the vast majority of people also bowed respectfully to Li Hanyi.
Those who could come to the Lei family's Hero Banquet were basically sects that were on good terms with Snow Moon City and the Lei family.
Like Wushuang City,
although it also belonged to the Jianghu cities, because it was in a competitive relationship with Snow Moon City, it did not receive an invitation from the Lei family.
And,
even if the Lei family had sent an invitation, they would definitely not have come.
Li Hanyi nodded slightly to the crowd, and then, led by Lei Qianhu, arrived beside the main table.
Only,
the main seat was already occupied by Grandfather Tang of the Tang Men.
According to the rules,
if the City Master of Snow Moon City did not come, then the main seat would naturally be occupied by Grandfather Tang, who had the highest seniority.
But now,
since the City Master of Snow Moon City had come,
then of course it should be occupied by the City Master of Snow Moon City.
After all,
although Snow Moon City was in an alliance with the Lei family, the Tang Men, and the old Lingnan Wen family,
everyone also knew
that the other three families actually existed in dependence on Snow Moon City.
Watching Grandfather Tang, who had no intention of giving up his seat, the noisy sounds in the entire hall slowly disappeared, gradually becoming silent.
"Old man, give up the seat?"
Just at this moment,
a voice broke the silence of the hall; the crowd only then remembered that when the Lei family butler Lei Wuhen announced her arrival, it seemed there was also a disciple who had come with the Snow Moon Sword Immortal.
Looking at Jiang Chen, who was standing beside the Snow Moon Sword Immortal with a smile on his face,
everyone was curious about his identity, as he dared to speak to Grandfather Tang like that.
"You are courting death!"
Tang Xuan glared angrily upon hearing Jiang Chen's words.
Grandfather Tang waved his hand, stopping Tang Xuan, who was about to stand up.
Then he slowly looked up at Jiang Chen and said with narrowed eyes: "Is the little brother also a disciple of Snow Moon City?"
Jiang Chen nodded with a smile:
"The Second City Master, the Snow Moon Sword Immortal, is my Master."
"Oh?"
Grandfather Tang was somewhat surprised: "I didn't expect that the Snow Moon Sword Immortal, who never took disciples, would actually take one now."
He looked at Li Hanyi again: "Hanyi, I am old, and once I sit down, I don't want to move. You shouldn't make things difficult for an old man like me who is already half-buried, right?"
While speaking,
Grandfather Tang carefully scrutinized Li Hanyi.
From the moment Li Hanyi entered the door, he had noticed that her aura was a bit abnormal.
It seemed... she was injured.
And,
it was a relatively serious injury!
And Lei Qianhu, who was on the side, was also frowning; he clearly had also discovered that something was wrong with Li Hanyi.
Hearing Grandfather Tang's words,
Li Hanyi did not speak, but looked at Jiang Chen.
Her action naturally caused another wave of surprise among the crowd.
"My Master is the Second City Master of Snow Moon City; naturally, she won't lower herself to your level, old man."
"But I am different; I have a bad habit, which is that I can't stand those who are disrespectful to their elders and rely on their age to bully others."
Watching Grandfather Tang's expression gradually darken,
Jiang Chen suddenly laughed: "However, I also have a merit, which is knowing that the dead are the most important; since you also know you are already half-buried and about to die, I won't lower myself to your level either."
In the hall,
everyone looked at Jiang Chen in shock, feeling that his courage was simply too great.
Even if you really are a disciple of the Snow Moon Sword Immortal, you can't speak to Grandfather Tang of the Tang Men like that, right?
However,
Jiang Chen didn't care at all.
He sat down right beside Grandfather Tang.
"Fortress Master Lei, is everyone here?"
He looked at Lei Qianhu, who was standing on the side: "If everyone is here, then hurry up and start the meal; I've only had a bowl of noodles since this morning, and after traveling such a long distance, I'm almost starving."
Hearing Jiang Chen's words,
Lei Qianhu did not move, but looked at Li Hanyi.
Although this person who claimed to be a disciple of the Snow Moon Sword Immortal seemed a bit strange, Li Hanyi was, after all, the City Master of Snow Moon City.
Therefore,
he felt it was better to ask for Li Hanyi's opinion.
Seeing Lei Qianhu look at her, Li Hanyi nodded gently to him.
At this,
Lei Qianhu was even more surprised.
The Snow Moon Sword Immortal actually cared so much about her disciple?
