Free flow of alcohol and free food.

The wedding at the County Prince's Mansion was like a large-scale social banquet. The bride and groom were still greeting the guests at the door, but inside there were already people drinking and drinking, and the guests were enjoying themselves.

Most of the monks present were representatives of various forces or well-known casual cultivators. They knew each other well, so they naturally took advantage of this opportunity to expand their social relations.

In the world of immortality, strength is respected.

But communication is also a type of soft power.

A well-connected monk can recruit countless helpers just by raising his arms.

Although the helpers are gathered mostly for profit, with more people, it is easier to get things done.

There are countless examples of elite teams that gradually develop a tacit understanding and achieve deeper cooperation.

There were also a few lonely ones, sitting alone and not talking to anyone.

Ling Xiao is one of them.

He is not here to make friends, nor does he want to make friends.

Besides, I barely knew anyone.

We are all people with status and status, but when the other party announces his name, you are blinded and say that you have never heard of it, so you still have to give up and not offend anyone!

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao couldn't help laughing.

His heart has been completely calm, without any waves.

You can take action at any time.

It's just that the time hasn't come yet.

In this case, Ling Xiao simply replayed the retreat route after assassinating Xiao Yue in his mind.

It is not difficult to simply assassinate Xiao Yue.

If he was really desperate, Ling Xiao had many ways to kill Xiao Yue on the spot.

The difficult thing is how to escape after taking action.

Although the scene was full of fun and everyone was drinking freely, in fact, the defense of the county palace was loose on the outside and tight on the inside. There were countless eyes hidden in the dark, and their strength was not weak. They were constantly scanning the whole place with their spiritual consciousness to guard against unexpected changes.

Even with Ling Xiao's current strength of consciousness, he could only distinguish the hiding locations of some of them.

So many secret guards are enough to nip all changes in their infancy.

It is also enough to block anyone who escapes.

Not to mention the foundation-building monks invited by the county prince's palace.

Even before all the guests arrived, three Ji Zhu had already arrived and were being surrounded by people, taking turns to toast.

They will be the biggest obstacle to Ling Xiao's trip.

If he takes action, these foundation builders will never stand idly by!

The Xiao family is now popular.

Even if they don't have a deep friendship with the Xiao family, the foundation-building monks are determined not to miss the opportunity to sell their favors.

Ling Xiao didn't want to die together with Xiao Yue.

So he silently recalled the map of Mount Chenjia.

Hongyi taught him a map with two special locations marked on it, and two small teleportation arrays hidden in each, so that Ling Xiao could teleport away directly after taking action.

One is on the front mountain.

One is in the back mountain.

It all depends on which one Ling Xiao chooses.

When he thought of this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sneer.

The laying of the teleportation array cannot be completed in a short time. It must be done by people within the county prince's palace.

The Red Sect is so pervasive!

But I wonder if there were people from the Red Clothes Sect in Qingfeng Temple back then?

Ling Xiao's fingertips suddenly trembled.

I recalled that scene again.

"Headmaster Gongsun has arrived!"

A shout interrupted Ling Xiao's thoughts!

The fourth foundation-building monk is here!

The current leader of the Songshan Sword Sect, Gongsun Lie!

The scene was quiet for a moment.

At the gate, Xiao Pingsheng accompanied Gongsun Lie.

People stood up to greet him.

On this festive occasion, Gongsun Lie was not as gloomy as usual, with a "core good" smile on his face.

Next to him, there was a woman in purple with a smile like a flower, who was talking to Xiao Pingsheng, making the latter happy and overjoyed.

Gongsun Lie smiled and greeted everyone, his eyes scanning the crowd one by one, as if he was looking for something.

This scene makes people stunned.

"Is Master Gongsun looking for someone?" Xiao Pingsheng asked with a smile when he saw this.

A flash of disappointment flashed in Gongsun Lie's eyes, and he said lightly: "Yes, find someone who never refuses to meet, maybe he didn't come!"

Xiao Pingsheng laughed and said: "There is still someone who refuses to see the leader Gongsun? Who is it? How bold!"

Gongsun Lie didn't answer. A crowd of guests had already gathered around him and welcomed him to his seat.

The Songshan Sword Sect has not been having an easy time recently. Lao Yu was assassinated in the street, which not only brought huge losses to the Songshan Sword Sect, but also greatly weakened the reputation of the Songshan Sword Sect.

Many Songshan disciples are no longer arrogant when they go out for a walk.

However, in the shadow of the famous tree, with Gongsun Lie sitting in charge, the Songshan Sword Sect has always been the number one immortal sect nearby, with huge control and influence.

People still tried their best to please Gongsun Lie, especially the casual cultivators.

Gongsun Lie was not good at socializing, but fortunately the woman in purple he brought was good at speaking. With a few words, she was able to get both sides of the situation and politely sent away the monks who came forward to chat.

Ling Xiao watched this scene from a distance and couldn't help but admire it.

Xiao Zi is a girl who can really eat anywhere. No wonder Lao Yu and Xu Santong like her so much.

Having such an assistant around me who can “get on a soft bed and go to the hall” solves all the problems in life and work. It’s so easy!

"Mr. Bai is here!"

There was another shout at the door, which shocked the people at the scene.

The white elephant is coming.

If Zifengtai is the actual leader of the Northern Liang Kingdom, then the Red Sect is the king of the dark world!

As the representative of the Red Sect, Bai Xiang has an extraordinary status.

Ling Xiao couldn't help but frown.

Could it be that the helper Kui Jieyuan mentioned was this guy?

After thinking about it carefully, he denied this guess.

If Bai Xiang takes action, doesn't it tell the world that the Red Sect did this?

What's more, with White Elephant's foundation building skills, it's easy to kill Xiao Yue, so why invite Ling Xiao again?

I'm afraid he showed up on purpose to clear the air!

Ling Xiao secretly rolled his eyes and scolded these smart people for doing so much nonsense.

Later, several more foundation-building monks arrived, including several whom Ling Xiao had seen before, such as Zi Tuo Tuo, Barefoot Immortal, and Black Cloud Cliff Master.

These people can be called the social butterflies among the foundation-building monks, and they can be found everywhere.

"The auspicious time has come!"

With this shout, people stopped talking one after another, the scene quickly became silent, and their eyes gradually gathered at the door.

Xiao Pingsheng and Xia He came hand in hand under the gaze of everyone. The two of them were smiling and affectionate. Everyone couldn't help but envy them.

One is the prince of the county who is highly favored by the Xiao family, and the other is the helmsman of the Lion Trading Company. The combination of the two is a perfect match and the envy of others!

"Please, Your Highness Princess!"

Another shout.

Ling Xiao smiled slightly, drank the wine in one gulp, and then looked up.

I saw Xiao Yue walking out of the side hall. Her face was filled with the elegant smile unique to the royal family. Her clothes were grand and grand, but she had just the right sense of proportion and did not deliberately steal the bride's limelight.

But Ling Xiao's heart sank.

Because there was someone unexpectedly following Xiao Yue.

A person who made Ling Xiao hate him with itch.

Foundation-building monk, Li Xuantian!
