Chapter 377

"Junior Sister, let me go first!"

Li Mochou looked at Little Dragon Maiden and smiled charmingly: "I originally thought it was just a simple matter of accompanying the Young Master to act in a play, but I didn't expect that there would be so many people watching."

After finishing,

Li Mochou couldn't help but glance at the crowd gathered in front of the giant stone and the bulletin board, who were reluctant to disperse for a long time.

She could see,

these people were basically all martial arts practitioners.

And from the conversations of some of them, she found that there were quite a few people from the Great Song and Great Ming dynasties.

At this time,

these people all had shocked expressions on their faces, as if they hadn't expected that the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra and the Heaven-Reliant Sword and Dragon-Slaying Saber would appear in Xueyue City, and were even taken out just like that as a reward for successfully challenging the Ascension Pavilion.

However,

Li Mochou also saw,

although these people were shocked, at the same time, many of them were skeptical about the authenticity of the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra and the Heaven-Reliant Sword and Dragon-Slaying Saber.

"No wonder the Young Master would let us come to Xueyue City to challenge the Ascension Pavilion."

Li Mochou said with a smile: "Let alone these people, even if it were me, if I were unaware of the situation, I probably wouldn't believe that Xueyue City could even find the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra."

Little Dragon Maiden nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

However, soon,

she saw her delicate eyebrows furrow slightly, and she spoke with some hesitation: "It's just... now our Ancient Tomb Sect, counting Master, only has three people, and we have never walked in the Jianghu. Senior Sister, you say if we go to challenge the Ascension Pavilion, will these people believe it?"

Li Mochou was stunned, then her gaze looked toward the ninth floor of the Ascension Pavilion with some strangeness.

She really hadn't considered this question.

Although the Ancient Tomb Sect only had a few people and never asked about worldly affairs, its status on Mount Zhongnan was exceptionally special.

Because of the relationship between the founder Lin Chaoying and Wang Chongyang,

so even when the Quanzhen Seven saw them, their words and actions were quite polite.

This also led Li Mochou to subconsciously believe that other Jianghu people in the Great Song Dynasty must have heard of the Ancient Tomb Sect.

But now, after Little Dragon Maiden's reminder,

Li Mochou finally reacted; if it were really as Junior Sister said, then in the Great Song Jianghu, besides the Quanzhen Sect, it was really not certain that anyone had heard of their Ancient Tomb Sect.

Thinking of this,

Li Mochou suddenly became somewhat dejected.

Before, she had always thought that her Ancient Tomb Sect was very famous; as a result, now, in fact, it was very likely that it couldn't even compare to some third or fourth-rate forces.

"How about we ask the Young Master later~~."

Li Mochou thought for a while and said: "After all, this matter was arranged by the Young Master; the Young Master should have already considered this situation."

Soon,

Little Dragon Maiden and Li Mochou arrived in front of the Ascension Pavilion.

One was dressed in white, fluttering like a celestial being, and the other had rosy cheeks and a charming demeanor; although their temperaments were very different, without exception, they were both top-tier beautiful women.

The appearance of the two,

immediately attracted everyone's attention. One by one, they looked at Little Dragon Maiden and Li Mochou with envious eyes, and then guessed their identities one after another.

"Junior Sister, then I'll go first."

Li Mochou ignored the surrounding gazes and said softly to Little Dragon Maiden.

"Mm."

Little Dragon Maiden nodded gently.

"This young lady, you should be coming to the Northern Li Dynasty for the first time, right?"

And just as Little Dragon Maiden was waiting quietly,

she saw a man waving a folding fan, looking quite handsome, walk up and look at Little Dragon Maiden with a smile: "I am Zhang Haoxuan, from the Imperial City, Tianqi City."

When speaking of Tianqi City,

the expression of this man named Zhang Haoxuan was somewhat arrogant.

Little Dragon Maiden looked at the other party indifferently upon hearing this, and then put her gaze back on the Ascension Pavilion.

At this time,

five lanterns outside the Ascension Pavilion had already been lit.

In these two days,

because Little Dragon Maiden didn't like playing Landlord and such, when accompanying Li Mochou, Huang Rong, and the others to play, Jiang Chen also told her some things about Xueyue City.

And as a major feature of Xueyue City, the Ascension Pavilion was naturally also mentioned to Little Dragon Maiden.

However,

upon hearing the name Zhang Haoxuan, there were quite a few people around who couldn't help but look at Zhang Jing, their gazes carrying suspicion.

"Zhang Haoxuan?"

Someone looked at Zhang Haoxuan and spoke cautiously: "I wonder if you are that Young Master Zhang from the Thousand Gold Terrace in Tianqi City?"

"You recognize me?"

Hearing this, Zhang Haoxuan raised an eyebrow, then looked at the person who spoke with a smile.

"It really is Young Master Zhang!"

Hearing Zhang Haoxuan's words, that person immediately revealed a look of surprise: "I once played at the Thousand Gold Terrace a year ago and was fortunate enough to see you once, but because the distance was quite far, I didn't dare to confirm it."

Zhang Haoxuan waved his hand and said with a smile:

"... This friend is too polite. But since that is the case, then we can be considered to have a connection. In the future, when you go to play in Tianqi City, if you encounter any trouble, you can report my name. Although I don't have much reputation in the Jianghu, in Tianqi City, most friends are still willing to give me some face."

Hearing Zhang Haoxuan's words,

that person immediately became excited, and even his complexion turned red because of it.

And some Northern Li people around were originally wondering why the name Zhang Haoxuan sounded a bit familiar.

Now, hearing the conversation between the two, they immediately reacted.

Then, one by one, they stared with wide eyes, looking at this man with a dashing demeanor before them.

No wonder this name sounded like it had been heard somewhere.

It turned out to be the son of Second Master Tu, the boss of the Thousand Gold Terrace in Tianqi City!

"I am Sun Zaiwang, greetings to Young Master Zhang!"

"I am Wu Youqi, greetings to Young Master Zhang!"

"I am..."

Soon,

quite a few people on the scene bowed one after another, looking at Zhang Haoxuan with respectful expressions, their words and actions carrying a trace of flattery.

It was really because the other party's identity was too precious.

Although the Thousand Gold Terrace was only a gambling den, if anyone really treated it as just an ordinary gambling den, they would definitely be seen as a fool by others.

Although in the beginning,

the Thousand Gold Terrace was just an ordinary gambling den.

And the boss at that time was not Second Master Tu, but First Master Tu.

It's just that,

many years ago,

Second Master Tu killed First Master Tu and replaced him to become the boss of the Thousand Gold Terrace.

Then, in just a few years, relying on his ruthless methods and super-high intelligence, he quickly made the Thousand Gold Terrace big and strong, until today, it has even become the head of the four major gambling dens in Northern Li!

And to this day,

whether in the Jianghu or in the Imperial Court,

no one treats the Thousand Gold Terrace as an ordinary gambling den anymore.
