Chapter 158 Banquet

At night, Yunsen City Lord's Mansion.

This is the second time Wang Lian has entered this mansion in a year.

Compared to the obscurity he had made for the last time, his status and status were all changed in the vast world. At the same time, he was invited to the same extent.

Because time seems to be in a hurry, in terms of scale, this banquet is still insufficient compared to the last one, but as long as the news comes, they will come as fast as possible, so that even if there are only one day when the guests are ready to come to the meeting, there are still many distinguished guests.

From this aspect, we can fully see the influence of Zhao Jiuzhou, the lord of Yunsen City, in Lizhou.

He has a 30,000 army of troops, including 11,000 elite soldiers. He is already one of the most powerful princes in the Yun Kingdom. Even if his reputation is not obvious, no one from Yun Kingdom dares to underestimate him at all.

When Wang Lian and Wang Chaoyang arrived at the city lord's mansion, night had already fallen. As the Wang family's carriage arrived, the guards who had been ordered had come forward and led the Wang family's carriage through the main gate.

This scene fell into the eyes of Mr. Yang, who also came to see the Wang family carriage and wanted to say hello to him, which made him stunned. He didn't react for a long time.

After a moment, his daughter Yang Qing's confusion sounded beside him, "Father, just now... was that the carriage from President Wang's family?"

"It should... be right."

Yang Jun was a little surprised and confused.

"Sir Yang, please stay."

At this time, a shout came from behind Yang Jun. Immediately afterwards, Pang Pan, the president of the Junshan Dharma Assembly who was influential in Yunsen City, followed by his son Pang Zhen.

"President Pang?"

"Mr. Yang Jue, if I have never read it wrong, the carriage that I entered the house of President Wang. Tonight, there are only two carriages entering and leaving. One is Liu Shengping, the son of Liu Zhoumu, and the other is Hong Xu, the disciple of the leader of the Hong Sect in Wurifeng. This is the third one? When did President Wang and Lord Zhao have such a close relationship and can afford such courtesy to Lord Zhao? Is there any inside story that we are not aware of during this period? Mr. Yang Jue and President Wang have a good personal relationship. I wonder if I can tell you one or two?"

Yang Jun smiled bitterly: "President Pang, you are curious about this, why am I not the same? I have not received any news in advance. Even if I have the intention, I cannot express a word to President Pang. We will just wait for a while and ask ourselves."

Seeing that Yang Jun was not as fake, Pang Pan had to nodded: "In this way, then we can only see it at that time. If President Wang really clings to Lord Zhao, he will really soar into the sky. At that time, the name of the Wang clerk's business will be unobstructed in Lizhou. Even in the entire Yun Kingdom, no one dares not to give Lord Zhao this face."

Yang Jun nodded, and the four of them stepped forward and followed into the courtyard of the city lord's mansion.

Many guests have arrived in the courtyard of the city lord's mansion. Yang Jun and Pang Pan are naturally not allowed to communicate with some friends and be polite. In addition to being polite, his eyes are also constantly looking around, looking for where Wang Chaoyang and others are.

However, when Pang Pan saw clearly where Wang Chaoyang was sitting at this moment, he suddenly widened his eyes, full of disbelief.

"I...I can't read it wrong, right? That's President Wang?"

"Um?"

Yang Jun, who was greeted by Pang Pan, looked over immediately. After seeing clearly where Wang Chaoyang and his son were, he couldn't help but wiped his eyes, almost thinking that there was an hallucination: "That's... the first table? President Wang is actually qualified to go to the first table, and he is on par with Lord Zhao, Mr. Liu and others?"

"Hey, Brother Wang Lian is sitting there too."

Yang Qing screamed in surprise.

"Wang Lian?"

After hearing what Yang Qing said, everyone seemed to have noticed Wang Lian.

Although Wang Lian has made a big name in the world and ranks 33rd on the Star List, Yang Jun and Pang Pan are not people in the world. Even if there are some forces and channels, it is impossible to know everything in the world. Even if they have heard of the Star List, they can only be familiar with the top ten people at best. Wang Lian, who ranks 33rd, and even others who come to the top ten, don’t pay much attention to it.

But according to the scene before him, it did not affect the speculation of several people...

"I heard that Wang Lian was valued by Miss Zhao for his outstanding performance and was taken to Kunlun for his outstanding performance. Now President Wang can be listed on the first table. It is probably because Wang Lian has made some achievements in the Kunlun School."

"Wang Lianzong has made some achievements in the Kunlun Sect. What is the identity of Lord Zhao? The power he has in his hands is even better than that of the head of the Kunlun Sect. If Wang Lian can ascend to the throne of the Kunlun Sect, it is reasonable to fall into the first table, but is this possible?"

Pang Zhen, who was pulled over by Pang Pan, seemed to want to see if she could catch Miss Zhao's eyes, murmured: "Can Miss Zhao and Wang Lian get along with each other day in the Kunlun School and have feelings for each other, so that Lord Zhao was willing to summon the third young master of the Wang family named Wang Lian as his son-in-law?"

As soon as these words were said, everyone calmed down at the same time, and then they savored it for a moment, and suddenly felt that this kind of guess was very likely.

"If Wang Lian can capture Miss Zhao's heart and ask Lord Zhao to call him as his son-in-law, the Wang family will really soar into the sky."

"I think it is impossible. Although Lord Zhao is the lord of Yunsen City, his power cannot be called the top of Yun Kingdom, but he is ambitious. He takes advantage of the chaos in Yun Kingdom and vigorously develops military affairs. He has now become one of the strongest warlords in Yun Kingdom. In terms of influence, it is far beyond the ability of the lord of Yicheng City. Many times, when it comes to Liuzhou, the governor of Lizhou, needs to rely on his cooperation when doing business. How can such status and status be favored by Lord Zhao, relying on his background as a merchant in the Wang family?"

"Zhao City Lord Zhao has vigorously developed military affairs and has become one of the largest warlords in Yun Country. This is true, but their vigorous development of military affairs has caused the Empress Dowager to fear. The Empress Dowager has repeatedly delayed the application for military expenditure in Yunsen City. At present, the large army can almost rely on the support of the Zhao family. Although this practice has made the army more loyal to the Zhao family, it has dragged down the economy of the Zhao family and even the entire Yunsen City, so that in recent years, the three thousand Qilin Guards have to go out to suppress the epidemic.

Only the bandits can maintain balance of income and expenditure... But the Wang family is different. The business of the Wang Chamber of Commerce has become bigger and bigger in recent years. The annual income is more than 300,000 to 400,000 yuan? If the Wang family and the Zhao family marry each other, one is someone, and the other is rich, it is like a strong alliance. The danger of Zhao City Lord's military expenditure is self-defeating. Not only that, Zhao City Lord can also rely on the support of the Wang family to continue to develop military affairs. At that time, Yunsen City Lord's momentum will definitely reach a new level compared to before."

"After saying this...it's really possible, I just don't know if Liu Zhoumu is willing."

"Willing or not, Liu Zhoumu is not allowed to..."

Amid the discussion, many distinguished guests came one by one.

Wang Lian looked at it and saw that all the people with status in Yunsen City had arrived, such as Zhou Cunyun, Li Daoquan, Qi Zhengyang, the elder of Yuehua Sword Sect, Fu Yuehua, the leader of the Green Bamboo Sect, etc., all arrived.

The last time he entered the Lord of Yunsen City, these people lived in the upper seat, while he was in the last seat, not a single penny. But now, he can sit at the first table, look down at it, and enjoy the envious eyes of everyone. More than ten months ago, Qi Zhengming, Huang Chao, Xiang Kaixuan and others, who were famous in Yang Qing's mouth, were like younger generations, and were no longer on the same level as him now.

"If I never admit my mistake, this one will be Wang Lian, the new swordsman on the Star List, and Wang Shaoxia."

On the table, Hong Xu, a disciple from the Hongmen, smiled at Wang Lian.

"I am."

"Another Hong Xu is on the 16th place in the Star List, he is one of the four swords of the Hongmen. He is loved by the people of the Jianghu and presented it with the nickname of the Sword of the Hero."

"I know."

Wang Lian responded calmly.

However, his lukewarm attitude made Hong Xu feel a little dissatisfied.

On the same star list, Wang Lian is only ranked 33, while Hong Xu is ranked 16, which is the second among the disciples of the Hong Sect generation, second only to Senior Brother Fei, who is nicknamed "Sword of Brave", is 17 places higher than Wang Lian.

Although his age is four years older than Wang Lian, he does not think that in another four years, Wang Lian will be able to enter the top twenty of the stars. Therefore, Wang Lian's lukewarm expression was even invited to the first table, which naturally made him feel a grudge.

"Haha, Young Master Wang Lian is really young. He actually made it to the 33rd Star List. No wonder he is called the strongest among the younger generation of Kunlun Sect. It seems that Kunlun Sect has been declining for more than ten years and will eventually turn around and gradually rise up."

Wang Lian glanced at Hong Xu and did not answer any more.

The decline of Kunlun Sect was precisely because Qin Xiyan, who turned into Qin Yijue back then, was taken over by the leader of the Hong Sect. As a disciple of Kunlun and Hong Sect, they would have a tacit understanding of not mentioning this matter. At present, Hong Xu intends to point out the topic in this regard, which is almost equivalent to a provocative move.

Seeing that Wang Lian had no reaction, Hong Xu felt even more embarrassed and raised his glass and said, "Come on, I'll respect Wang Lian Shaoxia for a cup. Kunlun Sect's vitality has been injured so far. In addition to Wang Lian Shaoxia, there is only one defeated general Ning Shaoyang of Wang Lian's subordinate, who has been on the Star List, and it is also the 36th place at the end of the Star List. I have to say that Wang Lian Shaoxia has to thank us for creating this opportunity for you. This once-in-a-lifetime moment is an opportunity for Wang Lian Shaoxia to show off his skills. I hope that Kunlun Sect can recreate the glory of his heyday under the leadership of Wang Lian Shaoxia."

Liu Shengping and Dao Wuxi looked at Hong Xu. Liu Shengping looked like he couldn't help but want to laugh, but Dao Wuxi said, "Junior Brother Hong Xu, you are drunk."

Finally, he turned to Wang Lian and said, "Young Master Wang Lian, Junior Brother Hong Xu is talking nonsense, don't take it to your heart."

"Of course not."

Wang Lian said calmly, but did not answer.
