Chapter 433: Harvest (I)
In Wuling City, inside the Martial Honor Restaurant on Nanming Street.The Martial Honor Restaurant was a well-known establishment in Wuling City, backed by the War God Sect. The restaurant frequently hosted exchanges and sparring matches among martial artists, drawing large crowds. It was one of Lin Zheyu's favorite places when he had first arrived in Wuling City.
When he had just arrived, he often came to Martial Honor Restaurant, ordered a bottle of wine and a few dishes, and gathered information. In a place where martial artists congregated, it was easy to learn useful news related to martial cultivation. Later, after getting to know Li Mengqi and her brother and joining the Wuji Sect, he came less often.
At this moment, in a private room in the central section of the west wing on the second floor of Martial Honor Restaurant, six young men and women sat around a table. Their bearing, manner of speech, appearance, and attire all marked them as extraordinary, far beyond what ordinary scions of esteemed families could match.
The woman seated near the door looked at Qian Baiyan and said with a charming smile, "Fellow Daoist Qian, it has been a long time. How have you been lately?"
She possessed a stunningly beautiful face, her skin as fair and smooth as snow. Her eyes were misty yet clear, like stars shimmering in a deep pool, carrying an irresistible allure.
"Not well. Ever since parting from Fellow Daoist Hu last time, I have lost all appetite for food and drink. I have grown thin."
Qian Baiyan shot Hu Manqiong a flirtatious glance as he teased.
The woman beside Hu Manqiong, cool in demeanor and carrying herself with poised confidence, said lightly, "If you want to flirt, do it in private later. Do not do it in public and make a spectacle of yourselves."
She glanced at Qian Baiyan and continued, "Let's begin. The longer we delay, the more variables there will be."
"Alright, then let's begin." Qian Baiyan smiled faintly, unconcerned.
This gathering was not for him to flirt with Hu Manqiong. That woman had no shortage of admirers beneath her skirt, and his involvement with her was nothing more than amusement. Compared to that, the ruins were far more important.
