Chapter 3936: Generous (Revised)
Jiang Yun could disregard his own safety for Xue Qing, he couldn't realistically expect Mo Chenzi to have a change of heart and release Xue Qing.After all, even his teacher who taught him can be betr...Inside the grand hall of the City Lord's Mansion, when Jiang Yun was brought in by his subordinates, the high and mighty young masters completely ignored the many cultivators who were reporting to them below. They immediately stood up with smiles on their faces and greeted him, saying loudly: "Master Xuanyuan, it's been a long time!"
Such a passionate attitude, not to mention that the numerous city lord's mansion cultivators were astonished, even Jiang Yun was stunned.
Having parted from Zhu Shao for only a little over ten days, it wasn't even that long since they last met! Yet, here I was, the one acting enthusiastically, as if I needed something from him. How things had reversed! "No good deed goes unpunished," I thought, "This City Lord must have ulterior motives!"
Although this thought flashed through his mind, Jiang Yun's astonishment quickly turned into a joyful smile. He strode towards Zhu Shaoshao, clasped his fists, and bowed deeply: "Xuan Yuan Yun, I greet the Lord of the City!"
Zhushao hastily reached out and grabbed Jiangyun's wrist, pulling him up. He said with a hint of displeasure, "Master Xuanyuan, what are you doing Between us, there's no need for such formality. Please get up!"
Then, Zhu Shao waved his hand towards the surrounding cultivators and said: "Today, Master Xuan Yuan has come to visit, you all should retreat first!"
Many cultivators looked at each other in surprise. Though they all had doubts, they naturally didn't dare to say much and left one after another.
"Here, look at the tea!"
After everyone had left, Zhu Shaoshang affectionately pulled Jiang Yun to a chair beside him and sat down, constantly inquiring about his well-being.
>
While Jiang Yun deliberately revealed a hint of fear, he politely parried the other party's words.
At the same time, Ginger Cloud was racing thoughts in her mind, wondering what Young Shao might be plotting against her.
"I'm afraid it's still for the Emperor Origin Stone, or maybe cultivation resources!"
The fact that you stole Emperor Fu Yi's storage artifact, the younger generation must surely be aware of this.
As for the wealth of Huangfu Yu, these young masters naturally understood it very well, so it would be absolutely impossible for them to let this windfall fall into their own hands easily.
Just then, a slightly immature voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Father!"
Jiang Yun followed the sound and saw a young man of sixteen or seventeen standing outside the door, holding a tea tray with two cups of tea on it.
The man's call, along with his facial resemblance to Zhu Shao Shao by six or seven points, naturally made it easy for Ginger Yun to identify him as Zhu Shao Shao's son.
Zhu Shao nodded slightly, and only then did the man walk in. He respectfully placed the tea tray on the table, and then took out a cup of tea and offered it to Ginger Yun.
The son of the city lord, and the prince's son, actually personally served him tea. This left Jiang Yun puzzled. He hurriedly stood up and politely took the teacup from the other person.
And the lesser one also opened his mouth and said: "Grandmaster Xuan, this is my son Zhu Cang!"
Then, Zhu Shao immediately put on a stern face and said, "Everyone, Master Xuan Yuan is the number one geomancer in the chaotic world. He is generous and willing to spend a fortune. You are lucky to see him today, so hurry up and pay your respects!"
All the celestial beings retreated three steps and bowed to Jiang Yun, saying: "The celestials greet Master Xuanyuan!"
By now, Jiang Yun had naturally understood the intentions of Zhoushao. He hurriedly reached out and lifted Zhuo Cang's body.
At the same time, with a flick of his wrist, he produced a storage artifact and thrust it into Zhu Cang’s hand. “First meeting, this is a small gift to welcome you. I hope the young city lord won’t find it too insignificant.”
All the myriad beings shook their heads and said, "We've just met for the first time. How could we possibly accept a gift from such a great master Please, Master, take it back!"
Although many were shaking their heads, his hand had already firmly grasped the storage artifact. It was likely that even if Jiang Yun changed his mind now, he wouldn't be able to get it back.
The reactions of the crowd made Jiang Yun slightly taken aback. He suddenly burst out laughing and said, "As expected of a father, who has a son like a tiger!"
"The Young City Lord need not be polite. I am generous, willing to spend a thousand gold coins, a mere greeting gift is nothing."
He and his father's personalities are simply identical! "Ahem!"
Zhoushao coughed twice and said, "Since this is Master Xuan Yuan's wish, then you should take it!"
Zhu Cao then received the items with a "flushed face" of anxiety. However, Zhu Shao didn't let him leave and continued, "Although Master Xuanyuan is young, he is well-traveled and knowledgeable. In the future, you should get closer to Master and learn from him!"
"Now, wait here!"
"Yes!"
All the celestial beings respectfully replied with a bow and retreated behind the young master.
A few words from him stirred something in Jiang Yun's heart, but he couldn't quite understand what the other person meant.
How does it feel like you're getting closer to the world around you
And, he was about to open his mouth and ask Lord Zhao to let him enter the City Lord's Mansion for a closer look.
This kind of thing, it's best to avoid mentioning it to others.
Although he was few and small, he still left his son behind.
Is he preparing to find an opportunity to give something away again, or is he intentionally letting his son go through some trials and tribulations
At this time, Zhu Shao had already spoken again: "Master Xuan Yuan, you came here this time, should it be for the matter of the city lord's mansion"
Since he had already brought it up, Ginger Cloud naturally didn't try to hide it and frankly admitted: "That's right."
"I know this is out of line, but I hope the City Lords will consider my longing for my family and make an exception."
Several young men waved their hands and said, "Master Xuanyuan, you don't have to be polite. It's just a small matter, a piece of cake."
As he spoke, Zhu Shao had already stood up and said, "Master Xuanyuan, shall we leave now"
"Shall we go now"
Ginger Cloud was stunned again. He originally thought that Young Master Zhu would take advantage of this to extort something from him, but he didn't expect the other party to be so generous.
Zhu Shao looked at Xuan Yuan with a smile that wasn't quite a smile and said, "Master Xuan Yuan must have been searching for his family for a long time. Now, his relatives are very likely to be in my city lord's mansion. If I were to continue to push him around, it would be rather unkind. So, let's bring the master to take a look sooner, and let the master feel at ease earlier!"
Although Ginger Cloud certainly dug himself into a hole, when he thought about his parents, who could very well be right nearby, he couldn't just sit still.
Then, we'll leave it to the Lord Masters!
Zhu Shao reached out and directly took out a formation stone. "The location of the City Lord's Mansion is quite secluded, it can only be reached by using a transmission array," he said.
Ginger Cloud nodded in understanding.
Zhuo Shao crushed a few stones, and in front of him appeared a teleportation array. Jiang Yun stepped into the array.
To his surprise, Zhu Cang followed closely behind him, stepping into the formation as well. It was clear that they were both going to the city lord's mansion for detention.
However, Jiang Yun didn't have the heart to care about what these two father and son were going to do now.
As Jiang Yun initiated the teleportation array, a flash of light filled his vision and he found himself above the sky. Below him lay a village! At first glance, Jiang Yun was puzzled. How could the City Lord's Mansion be a village
But when he used his divine sense to look again, he realized that this was no ordinary village.
The entire village is laid out on top of a massive formation.
Above the village, it appeared to be empty, but in reality, there was a faint, almost imperceptible power enveloping it.
Here, indeed, is a prison.
The prison had been arranged to look like a village, which Ginger Cloud had never seen before.
Several young men laughed and said, "Master Xuanyuan, this is the City Lord's Mansion of my Wushang City."
"Cao'er, give Master Xuan Yuan a brief introduction to the situation here."
All the disciples chorused, "My lord's mansion is currently imprisoning 312 cultivators."
Among them, there were one hundred and one human cultivators. A small portion came from Wusheng City, while the majority came from beyond the Hidden Realm!
Zhu Cang's last words made Jiang Yun's eyes flash, and his heart beat faster involuntarily.
Here, there are actually cultivators from beyond the realms, and most of them! "Master Xuanyuan, this is a general overview of my Supreme City Lord's Mansion."
As the voices of the crowd fell silent, Zhu Shao smiled faintly and said to Xuan Yuan Master, "We..." Before Zhu Shao could finish his words, his expression changed drastically. Because beside Jiang Yun, a rift suddenly appeared in the space, silently and without warning!e Eye of Observation and came to this lower realm, even entering this world.Logically speaking, because of the protection of the Eye of Heaven, apart from Ginger Cloud, no one else could discover his...
