Chapter 1017: Chapter 1014: Emerging from Nowhere
Xu Wendong smiled and nodded: "The show has already begun!"
Not to mention in the mundane world, even in the entire Kunlun Mountains Minor World, experts at the Golden Core Stage Peak are rarely seen.
It’s imaginable.
When Zhonghu Hermit invited cultivators from the mundane world to gather at the Mountain and Water Manor, imagine what it meant for the Mountain and Water Manor.
This means that this immense wealth and power have finally fallen on the heads of the Jiang Family!
At the same moment.
Zhonghu Hermit pinched the spell with both hands, a golden light appeared at his fingertips, gathered together, and transformed into a golden spirit sparrow.
"Go!"
Zhonghu Hermit waved one hand, and the spirit sparrow immediately flew out of the window, transforming into transparent spirit sparrows as it flew out, heading in all directions.
He simply sent a message to those Golden Core Stage Realm experts, and those experts then passed the message to other cultivators, inviting them to gather at the Magic Capital’s Shanshui Manor three days later for a gathering.
For a moment.
All the experts in the Qi Refinement Realm, Foundation Establishment Stage, and Golden Core Stage living in the South China Region received this message.
Upon learning that the Zhonghu Hermit was inviting cultivators to gather at the Mountain and Water Manor, those cultivators reacted with extreme excitement.
Because everyone knew that Zhonghu Hermit’s strength had reached the Golden Core Stage Peak, absolutely an expert among experts.
Now being able to participate in the gathering he is hosting is like a pie falling from the sky.
At the same time.
Many people also realized how terrifying the power behind the Mountain and Water Manor was. Unless one was not an ordinary person, who could host such a large-scale gathering?
For a moment.
The Jiang Family of the Magic Capital emerged suddenly, astonishing many people.
Even though the Jiang Family was previously targeted by the Magic Capital’s top family, the Qin Family, everyone could see that this gathering was the Jiang Family’s counterattack against the Qin Family.
Even though the Qin Family has a heritage of hundreds of years and a deep foundation, claiming to be the top family of the Magic Capital.
But compared to the Jiang Family, they seemed somewhat insignificant.
Thus.
Those who were originally the partners of the Jiang Family quickly reached out kindly to the Jiang Family, making them feel flattered.
However, the Jiang Family ignored these gestures of goodwill.
Because these people had betrayed them before.
They would never reconcile with traitors or associate with them.
Qin Yuan also learned right away about Zhonghu Hermit’s plan to host a gathering at the Mountain and Water Manor, his face turned pale as wax, filled with a strong sense of unease.
At this moment, he finally realized how terrifying the strength of the Jiang Family was.
Because even the Qin Family could not host such a large-scale gathering.
This point fully reflected the people of the Jiang Family.
Without much thought, he immediately went to find the strong member of the Qin Family.
This person was also named Qin, called Qin Huan, and was a Golden Core Late Stage expert.
His strength was outstanding, and looking across the entire Magic Capital, no one could match him.
Qin Yuan honestly explained the conflict with the Jiang Family, hoping Qin Huan could help the Qin Family.
Because he knew.
If Qin Huan did not help the Qin Family, they were sure to face great calamity this time.
"Conflicts between the younger generation are inevitable." Qin Huan appeared very calm: "Moreover, Zhonghu Hermit is just hosting a gathering at the Mountain and Water Manor, it doesn’t necessarily have a close relationship with the manor, this is not something you need to worry about."
"Even if he really has a good personal relationship with the Mountain and Water Manor, he still has to show me some respect!"
Hearing Qin Huan’s words, Qin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, his unease vanished and even looked forward to the gathering three days later.
If the Mountain and Water Manor and Zhonghu Hermit have no connection, then this matter becomes intriguing.
------
At ten in the evening.
Xu Wendong drove back to the Magic Capital, but he didn’t return to Jiang Xueyao’s house, instead, he took her to the Jiang Family’s villa.
The Mountain and Water Manor suddenly caught the attention of a mysterious expert, and they must treat this matter seriously and grandly prepare the Mountain and Water Manor.
This is a show of respect to the mysterious expert.
Since the Jiang Family did not have accommodations for Xu Wendong and Yang Tao,
after delivering Jiang Xueyao home,
he drove with Yang Tao back to Jiang Xueyao’s place.
Placing the suitcase back in the bedroom, Yang Tao changed into a pink loungewear, with a white headband adorning her head, looking cute and slightly refreshing.
She checked the fridge, then looked at Xu Wendong: "Not much food left in the fridge, how about I cook some noodles for you?"
As soon as she said it, she realized her wording was off, her face flushed red: "I mean, I’ll cook some noodles for you. If you don’t want to eat, I can order takeout."
Xu Wendong: "Just cook some noodles for a simple meal!" He said grabbing a clean set of clothes and heading into the bathroom.
When he came out after showering, two steaming bowls of sour soup noodles were on the dining table, topped with a fried egg and some greens for garnish.
"They look pretty good!" Xu Wendong sat at the table and started to devour the meal.
He wore a white sleeveless vest paired with black shorts, looking very home-like, but it couldn’t hide his robust and attractive physique.
Most importantly, he looked refreshingly handsome, not at all greasy.
"Sister Taozi, why aren’t you eating? The noodles will get soggy if you don’t eat soon."
Seeing Yang Tao sitting there dazed, Xu Wendong asked curiously.
Yang Tao snapped back to reality and forced a smile: "I’m not very hungry, why don’t you have my noodles too." She said, pushing the bowl in front of Xu Wendong.
Xu Wendong glanced up at her with concern: "If I’m not mistaken, you’ve been eating very little these past few days."
"Food is the most important embellishment in life, you can’t go on like this!"
Yang Tao lowered her head, her eyes swollen with red, looking quite helpless.
At the moment, she had no expectations for life.
She thought leaving the pit of fire would be a happy thing, but once she escaped, she felt lost.
She didn’t know what to do or where to go.
Her life lost meaning the moment she escaped that pit.
Xu Wendong suddenly felt a pang of heartache and gently comforted, "Sister Taozi, I know your original family caused deep scars that are hard to heal, but I still want to say."
"Even if no one in this world loves you, you must learn to cherish yourself, so as not to waste your time in this world."
Yang Tao nodded solemnly, then forced a smile and said, "I’ll take a shower, you can leave the bowls in the sink after you finish eating, I’ll wash them in the morning!"
Xu Wendong agreed, and swiftly finished the two bowls of sour soup noodles, then went to the kitchen and washed the bowls and utensils.
Although Yang Tao said she’d wash them after getting up the next morning, for Xu Wendong, washing dishes was just a small task.
Even though Yang Tao was a nanny in this house, there was no need to be so particular about it.
Just as he finished washing the dishes and was about to go to bed, a cry of pain came from the bathroom.
Xu Wendong quickly walked to the bathroom door and gently asked, "Sister Taozi, what’s wrong?"
