However,

surprise was surprise, but Lei Lei Qianhu's actions were not slow at all; he said directly to everyone loudly:

"Start the banquet!"

Immediately after,

he also sat down at the main table.

"Master, come, eat a chicken leg."

After hearing Lei Lei Qianhu say to start the banquet, Jiang Chen picked up his chopsticks and put a chicken leg into Li Li Hanyi's bowl.

Then he picked up several more dishes in succession.

Now at this main table,

only Jiang Chen, Li Li Hanyi, Lei Lei Qianhu, Wen Liang of the Wen family, and the four from Tang Men were sitting.

The others hadn't even picked up their chopsticks yet.

Li Li Hanyi's bowl was already piled high by Jiang Chen.

In the hall,

everyone looked at Jiang Chen speechlessly, all whispering in their hearts about where the Snow Moon Sword Immortal had picked up such a strange disciple.

Li Li Hanyi looked at the amount of food in her bowl, which was at least enough for two people, and couldn't help but roll her eyes at her disciple.

"Master, eat!"

Jiang Chen looked at Li Li Hanyi innocently: "You are injured now; you need to eat more to get better faster."

Hearing Jiang Chen's words,

everyone looked at Li Li Hanyi in surprise.

The Snow Moon Sword Immortal was injured?

As for Grandfather Tang and Lei Lei Qianhu, they looked at Jiang Chen unexpectedly.

They didn't know if Jiang Chen was just simple-minded or if he said it on purpose.

Seeing everyone looking at their side, Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Everyone, don't just watch; hurry up and eat; this kind of banquet isn't easy to come by."

After speaking,

he looked at Grandfather Tang again, the smile on his face even wider: "Old man, especially you; you are the host of this banquet, so you must eat more."

Hearing Jiang Chen's words,

Grandfather Tang's expression darkened.

He thought Jiang Chen was pointing out the fact that he was sitting in the main seat again.

As the person with the highest seniority present, being looked down upon by a junior's junior, no matter how deep his city was, he had long since been angered.

If it weren't for the unclear situation, he would have long since been unable to resist killing Jiang Chen with one palm.

Seeing Grandfather Tang ignoring him, Jiang Chen didn't care at all.

He looked at Lei Lei Qianhu again, looking curious:

"Fortress Master Lei, is your banquet here also eight to ten people per table? What a coincidence, ours is too."

Lei Lei Qianhu:...

He didn't quite understand how the other person had been taken as a disciple by Li Li Hanyi.

"Sigh, there really is a generation gap with you seniors; we can't talk at all."

Jiang Chen showed a bored expression, then looked at Wen Liang and asked with a smile: "Old Lingnan brand Wen family?"

Seeing Jiang Chen talking to him,

Wen Liang smiled and said: "Greetings, Senior Brother; my name is Wen Liang."

He felt this disciple of the Snow Moon Sword Immortal was too interesting and very much to his taste.

Hearing Wen Liang's words,

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up; he had been in Snow Moon City for so long, and finally, someone called him Senior Brother.

Although the other person wasn't a disciple of Snow Moon City,

the old Lingnan brand Wen family and Snow Moon City were allies, so he could be considered half a Snow Moon City disciple.

"Junior Brother, I'm very happy you called me Senior Brother!"

Jiang Chen looked at him with a smile: "In the future, when you walk in the Jianghu, if you encounter any trouble, just report my name, Jiang Chen, and I guarantee no one will dare to touch you."

Hearing this, Wen Liang

couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He thought to himself that with your personality, if I were to report your name, I'd probably be hacked to death by others very soon.

"Come, Junior Brother, let's have a drink!"

Jiang Chen raised the wine glass on the table and toasted Wen Liang from afar.

Seeing this, Wen Liang hurriedly raised his wine glass too.

However,

just at this moment,

he suddenly discovered Jiang Chen looking at him suspiciously, and couldn't help but ask: "Senior Brother, what's wrong?"

"Nothing."

Jiang Chen smiled and said casually: "I just suddenly remembered that everyone in your Wen family is a poison expert; you didn't secretly poison this wine, did you?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's words,

Wen Liang hadn't reacted yet, but the other heroes who had been paying attention to this side were startled.

They hurriedly put down the wine glasses in their hands.

"Senior Brother is joking."

Wen Liang felt like he was on pins and needles, hurriedly shaking his head and denying: "This is a banquet hosted personally by Uncle Tiger; if I dared to poison it, Uncle Tiger would skin me alive!"

"That's true."

Jiang Chen smiled, then tilted his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Seeing this, Wen Liang

felt his favor for Jiang Chen increase, and then he also drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Then,

his expression changed instantly.

As the wine went down, Wen Liang only felt the internal energy in his body instantly sealed, and his head felt dizzy, with a sense of vertigo that he might faint at any time.

He hurriedly took out a pill from his bosom and took it; only then did he feel more comfortable.

"The wine is poisoned!"

Wen Liang hurriedly shouted to the hall: "It's Tang Men's Immortal Mist Dew; everyone, don't drink..."

It was just that as he shouted, he discovered something wrong.

Wen Liang looked at Jiang Chen in confusion:

"That's not right... Senior Brother, why aren't you poisoned?"

As the closed-door disciple of Wen Jiuhu, the head of the old Lingnan brand Wen family, Wen Liang was certain that the wine he had just drunk had been poisoned with Immortal Mist Dew by Tang Men.

This poison was colorless and odorless.

The person poisoned would lose all their power in an instant and then quickly fall into a coma; he had relied on his many years of experience in using poison to detect the abnormality in the wine.

It was just... how did this disciple of the Snow Moon Sword Immortal look like he wasn't poisoned at all?

"... You didn't feel wrong, did you?"

Jiang Chen looked at Wen Liang in surprise: "Tang Men and we are allies; why would they poison the wine?"

After speaking,

Jiang Chen looked at Grandfather Tang: "Old man, am I right?"

"Why aren't you poisoned?"

Grandfather Tang stared at Jiang Chen: "Immortal Mist Dew is colorless and odorless; how did you discover it?"

At this time,

Grandfather Tang laid his cards on the table directly.

There was no other way.

With Wen Liang there, as long as everyone checked the wine on their tables, it would be easy to know if there was poison in the wine.

At worst,
