95 Self-Knowledge
That's the truth, but in reality, no one believes it.
Lin Move naturally didn't believe it and only took it as Lu Xuan's excuse.
"Brother Lu, this is the perfect opportunity for Tianwu City and Heavenly Hub City to mend their relationship, even the Qings Yan Sect's fellow brothers have come out to mediate, so how can you alone act arbitrarily and cause the reconciliation to break down! You don't have to go to this feast, you must go!"
Lin Move's words changed, bringing this matter to a point of righteousness.
It was as if Lu Xuan was a sinner for the ages if he didn't go.
Lu Xuan's eyes were glittering.
He had felt that there was something wrong with Lin Move from the very beginning, and inviting someone to the so-called banquet in the middle of the night was an extremely odd thing in itself.
That was why he had used a strange tone of voice to test it out in the beginning.
As expected, there must be something fishy about it.
Lu Xuan smiled casually, he was the supreme Great Emperor in his previous life, how could he be afraid of these puny people?
He had countless cards in his hand.
Even if it's a tiger's lair, he would dare to take a walk.
What's more, within the Qing Yan Sect, the elders were not just one handed, Lu Xuan expected that they wouldn't dare to come openly, or it wouldn't be as simple as going to the banquet.
Instead, they would directly order a roundup to kill him.
Lu Xuan had no fear of open swords and guns, and how could he have any fear of a cold arrow in his back.
"In that case, lead the way." Lu Xuan nodded his head.
"Hehe, since Brother Lu is so profoundly righteous, it would be perfect." Lin Move smiled coldly and walked in front, leading the way for Lu Xuan.
One by one, the two of them soon arrived at the Heavenly Hub City disciple's residence.
Inside the room.
There were quite a few people sitting there, some of them were disciples of Tianwu City and Heavenly Hub City that Lu Xuan had seen during the day and had an impression of.
The other part, however, was the ones Lu Xuan didn't know.
There were men and women, probably the disciples of Qing Yan Sect.
These people, all of them had inexplicable smiles on their faces.
It was very fake, very harsh.
Lu Xuan looked unchanged and found a random empty seat.
"Yo, the rightful master has finally arrived, let's eat with chopsticks too." One of Qing Yan Sect's disciples suddenly said.
All of them focused their gazes on Lu Xuan in unison.
There was scrutiny, banter, but more sympathy.
Everyone knew what would happen in the next moment, but none of them would warn him.
In the face of all these strange looks, Lu Xuan sat in his old age with aplomb and did not speak.
"Who is he?" Some of them still didn't know Lu Xuan's true identity.
They were in the middle of cultivating, and suddenly they were dragged over for the banquet.
"Him, the famous Lu Xuan, you don't even know him, Senior Brother Lu?" Someone said in a gloomy way.
"Breaking Martial arts with his bare hands, overpowering dozens of people, beating them up, and being so bold and ruthless that he won't even let his own people go."
"You've never heard of his great name, you're really alone."
Upon hearing this, the crowd suddenly realized and gave a meaningful "Oh".
All their faces were full of banter.
It turned out that the name was too big and needed to be suppressed, these days, it was not uncommon for them to do these things.
This kind of disobedient new thorn in the side of the newcomer really needs a good beating, otherwise, in the back, maybe not even senior brothers and sisters will pay attention to it.
Lu Xuan sat by the side, turning a deaf ear to their private talk.
" Brother, why don't you move your chopsticks, is the food here not to your liking." Lin Move fake heartedly said.
"Yes, I asked all the brothers and sisters of Qing Yan Sect to prepare the dishes here with great care, and if they don't suit your taste, I'll call for another table right now." Hua Fengliu's face is no longer swollen after a brief treatment.
However, there were still two gaps in his front teeth, and he spoke casually mostly with a fan to cover his face in case he was seen.
Before waiting for Lu Xuan to reply.
A handsome young man of Qing Yan Sect, wearing a blue crown, suddenly stood up.
This young man's name was Zhuo Junchi, and he was the leader of Qing Yan Sect's outer disciples, and it was said that in a little while, he would be among the inner disciples.
In the outer sect, the power of speech was not ordinary.
"Alright all of you, quiet down a bit."
As soon as the words fell, the banquet, which was still quite noisy, became silent.
All eyes fell on Zhuo Junchi in the center of the arena.
"The purpose of this wine banquet is clear to everyone." Zhuo Junchi was satisfied with the crowd's reaction and spoke freely, "As the saying goes, it's better to untie rather than close, Tianwu City and Heavenly Hub City are both part of our Red Vault Empire and should have loved each other and lived together as equals."
"Therefore, this feast is to be treated as a wine of reconciliation, all of us just need to drink this hundred year old wine, and then we will turn a big issue into a small one, let's put this matter behind us."
Zhuo Junchi held the wine glass aloft.
The amber-colored liquor in the middle of the glass gave off an intoxicating aroma.
Even someone who didn't drink alcohol regularly would exclaim, "Good wine" when they smelled it.
There is hardly anyone among the Martial Artists who doesn't drink alcohol, even women have a little bit of it.
Zhuo Junchi's fame was great, and many people knew his position in Qing Yan Sect, so they gave him a face as well.
The Heavenly Hub City people and the Tianwu City people looked at each other, then laughed lightly, and both raised their glasses high and drank.
Everyone in the room drank the wine before them.
Except for one man.
Lu Xuan.
"Surnamed Lu, why aren't you drinking? Is it any wonder you despise our Heavenly Hub City?" Hua Fengliu's face paled and scolded.
"Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Zhuo had a hard time gathering everyone together to set up a peace offering, wouldn't you be embarrassing everyone by doing that." Lin Move was also on the other side of the line.
Zhuo Junchi naturally noticed the situation on Lu Xuan's side.
Holding a wine cup, he came to Lu Xuan with a genial smile on his face and a self-deprecating tone, "Brother Lu, all the brothers and sisters have drunk it, why won't you drink it? Could it be that I, Zhuo, am too small and you won't reward my face?"
This was a polite remark, but also a put-down.
Who didn't know his Zhuo Junchi's strength, a man who was about to be among the inner gate, in the entire outer gate, the right to speak was almost the first person, all he had to do was shake his arm, and he had hundreds of men at his disposal.
Not willing to reward his face?
He's got hundreds of ways to make you look good!
The crowd in the arena wore bantering smiles, looking at Lu Xuan's face with good grace, trying to see some interesting reactions on his face.
Like a frown, panic or something.
However, the result was disappointing to them.
Hearing Zhuo Junchi's words, Lu Xuan didn't even furrow his eyebrows, not to mention being moved.
It was as if there was a cloud of air in front of him.
Zhuo Junchi also felt a little annoyed, a newcomer who came to participate in the Examinations, not even an outer disciple, with such a big attitude, who do you think you are!
Just as he was about to berate.
He saw Lu Xuan slowly stand up and bluntly uttered, "Yes, you're very self-aware."
