C211 Shi Zhongyu
Su Chen and Yu Huan followed the lead of the two beautiful attendants and walked along the path paved with jade towards the tall building in the center of the City Lord's Mansion.
On both sides of the road, there were all kinds of beautiful plants with colorful colors. Under the illumination of the lights, it looked extremely beautiful. It was as if he had entered heaven. A charming fragrance filled the air, making one's heart clear. It had to be said that rich and powerful people really knew how to enjoy life.
Along the way, Su Chen and the others met many guests. From their gorgeous clothes and their every move, it could be seen that they were people from the upper class of society. They were either nobles or super wealthy merchants.
Yu Huan's red banquet group made her even more beautiful than the fairies in the sky. Many people could not help but turn their heads and look at her.
Yu Huan seemed to have integrated into the role of the princess. She no longer felt uncomfortable all over. Instead, she felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction. She was high and mighty, being the center of attention. This was what she had longed for but could never obtain.
When she got what she could not get, Yu Huan began to feel that it was actually nothing. She even felt a little strange that she had envied the life of a noble in the past.
Five minutes later, they entered the building. At this time, this magnificent building, which was like a palace, was already surrounded by all kinds of people.
Many of them were holding glasses filled with famous wine, chatting happily and drinking at the same time.
Su Chen's arrival immediately attracted the attention of many guests. This banquet was specially prepared for them. They were the main characters of this banquet, so they naturally had to receive attention.
"It's Mr. Yu Loong. I've heard a lot about you!" Many guests gathered around and greeted Yu Loong with smiles on their faces.
Su Chen responded politely, but he was sneering in his heart. The smiles of these people were obviously fake. He even felt very disgusted.
"Hehe, Yu Loong, come over here quickly. The other experts are waiting for you!" A calm and amiable voice came from the crowd. Everyone immediately stopped talking and looked at that person.
It was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, with thick eyebrows and a hawk nose. His eyes were bright and full of vigor, and his body emitted a heroic spirit. His clothes were gorgeous. Six of his fingers were wearing extremely precious rings. There were blue diamonds on them. There were divine jades and gems.
One look and one could tell that this person had a very high status.
"Hehe, this is the City Lord. This should be the first time that Mister Yu Loong has seen him in person." Someone whispered in his ear.
Su Chen nodded, held Yu Huan's hand, and walked towards the city lord with a smile.
The Rouxue did not come out with Su Chen tonight. He had gone to some unknown place early in the morning for a stroll.
"Greetings, City Lord." Su Chen cupped his hands at him and said. He glanced around from the corner of his eye. He saw Green Jade, Hua Yue, and the other five experts were one step ahead of him. When they arrived at the Prefecture, they were surrounded by guests.
The City Lord chuckled, seemingly very approachable. "Come, come, come. We're just short of you over there. The banquet will begin."
After saying that, the City Lord pointed at the other five experts.
"I'm really sorry that I'm late. I've delayed everyone's time! Let's go!" Su Chen said apologetically.
However, he was smiling in his heart. In fact, he knew that without him, the banquet would continue as usual.
Su Chen pulled Yu Huan and walked towards the five experts. Yu Huan felt a little uncomfortable because she noticed that many pairs of eyes were looking at her.
When the city lord saw that there was a person beside Su Chen, he could not help but look at Yu Huan curiously.
"This is..." The city lord smiled and asked.
"She is my friend. It shouldn't be a problem for her to come with me, right?" Su Chen said.
The city lord was shocked for a second, but he soon smiled and said, "Of course not. This young lady is really beautiful. She has an elegant and noble temperament. If I'm not wrong, you must be the daughter of a noble family! "
The City Lord actually took the initiative to speak with Yu Huan.
Yu Huan even trembled slightly. For a moment, she did not know what to do.
Suddenly, a warm hand tightly grabbed her hand. "Yu Huan do not need to be afraid. Don't forget that you are a princess."
Su Chen's words echoed in her mind. This was the sound transmission technique Su Chen used.1
With Su Chen's encouragement, Yu Huan's nervousness disappeared in an instant.
"Haha, greetings, City Lord. I'm really sorry. I am not the daughter of a noble family. I am an ordinary student of Blue Snow Academy."
" Oh." A hint of surprise flashed across the City Lord's face. The VIPs present were even more shocked. Many people who initially thought that she was a princess found it inconceivable.
One. How could an ordinary student have such an elegant and noble temperament? If she didn't tell the truth, almost no one would believe her.
"Hehe, Mr. Yu is really in a good mood tonight. He brought Miss Yu along as well! Miss Yu is indeed natural and beautiful. It's just that she lacks dressing." Green Jade seemed to want to help Su Chen out of the predicament as she walked towards them.
"Hehe, you're right! Since you're Yu Loong's friend, you can be considered our distinguished guest. Welcome to our humble abode." The City Lord also acted according to the situation.
All the distinguished guests had just recovered from their shock. Although they knew Yu Huan's identity, some of them were still attracted by her beauty.
The jade in the stone was a treasure in itself. It was just a lack of excavation.
Yu Huan was definitely a piece of jade. It was only because she was born in a poor family that her temperament and beauty were buried. As long as she was willing to explore, perhaps she could do better than the real princess.
Very quickly, the guests merged into the lively atmosphere of the banquet. Su Chen brought Yu Huan along and gathered with the other five experts. The guests toasted to them together.
After the toast and some pleasantries, the guests began to do their own things. It was rare for nobles to gather together. Of course, it was not rare for them to boast and talk. Of course, some of them started to approach the six great experts and started to implement their recruitment plan.
"This is the vice prime minister of Sprit Wind, Ren Yi. He really wants to make friends with you."
"This is the third prince of Xiluo Country."
...
Those with power and status were introduced to the six experts. However, other than the six experts, none of them seemed to be interested in these people. They were just polite and perfunctory.
Finally, after hitting the wall countless times, no one came to find fun.
"Hehe, people are afraid of fame and pigs are afraid of strength. This sentence is really reasonable." The six of them finally gathered together. Loer, who was in the western Beast Knight, half-jokingly said.
"Hmph, a bunch of annoying flies." Xiao Yih said faintly.
"There's no helping it! This is something that even powerful cultivators would encounter." The cold beauty Ice God Hua Yue spoke unexpectedly. After she finished speaking, her eyes did not forget to size up the other experts.
Even though these six experts were extremely famous in the academy, they rarely met. This time, when they met, everyone should get familiar with each other.
Unfortunately, among these six people, most of them had indifferent and cold personalities. Su Chen smiled bitterly in his heart.
"Older sister Hua Yue, you are my idol. I am so happy to be able to see you here today." Yu Huan smiled at Hua Yue.
