Chapter 112: Fierce Battle of Wealth
The Liang Wang Fu was filled with guests at this moment, and most of the witches in the local area had some influence. However, only the Qingzhou Eight Great Families, as well as the Baihua Palace, Guiwang Sect, Luofu Island, and Wudu Sect, were able to enter the main hall.
Among them, the Ghost King Sect's Mao Kai Fu and Yao Cheng Xian had already been killed by Ye Xu. The Hundred Flowers Palace only sent a young girl to present gifts before leaving directly.
Most of the people who are still here have been beaten by Ye Xu, and even Liang Wang was almost killed by him. If it weren't for the intervention of the master of the Hundred Flowers Palace, the birthday banquet would have turned into a funeral feast.
"The Wudang Sect's branch in Qingzhou will probably be finished soon, and who knows, maybe one of these nights the master of Ye's branch will mysteriously die." The master of the Lan family sneered.
He was seriously injured and had his legs broken by Ye Xu, but Liang Wang Dashou couldn't not come, so he had someone carry him on a stretcher to appear at the banquet.
Jiang's family head had almost all his teeth knocked out by Ye Xu, his face still somewhat swollen, his speech unclear, and he said sternly: "Ye Duozhu, if you do too many bad things, I'm afraid you won't even be able to sleep peacefully. Who knows when your enemies will come knocking on your door to take your life!"
The other family members also spoke coldly and ambiguously, making veiled threats.
They were beaten by Ye Xu until they were pitiful, each of them was injured, and some people's injuries were extremely serious. They were very dissatisfied with Ye Xu in their hearts.
Liang Wang sat in his seat, looking at him coldly, but did not persuade him.
He was also extremely resentful in his heart. Ye Xu made a big noise in Qingzhou, and almost cut him down to death with one slash, how could he not be angry?
Ye Xuan smiled faintly and said, "I still have a few Beast Transformation Pills. If someone wants to take my life, I'll have no choice but to strike first and eliminate the entire family, young and old!"
"How dare you!"
"How dare you!"
"How bold!"
The eight great family heads slammed their fists on the table in unison, with several people standing up immediately. Their true yuan surged and emitted a terrifying aura, but they didn't dare to make a move.
Ye Xu's words were a blatant threat, yet they left them helpless and could only glare at him in anger.
At first, Ye Xu took a pill of beast transformation, and almost wiped out the eight major families of Qingzhou plus the Liang Wangfu, while he himself was unscathed.
Now listening to his tone, this powerful beast transformation pill is far from just one, making them feel a chill in their hearts, they can only vent their anger, but they absolutely dare not take action.
This young man's strength was lowly, and in the past when they encountered a cultivator of this level, they wouldn't even bother to glance at him. Yet now Ye Xu dared to brazenly threaten them, making them grit their teeth in anger, yet unable to do anything about it.
Behind the master of the Blue House, a young man stepped out and sneered: "What you rely on is nothing but the Beast Transformation Pill. Without this pill, among so many people here, anyone can easily pinch you to death!"
Ye Xu slightly furrowed his brow and said: "Who are you?"
That young man smiled proudly and said, "I am Lan Shao You, the eldest son of the Blue family, my cultivation has already reached the 9th rank of the Solid Origin stage! Leaf surname, if you have the guts, don't take the Beast Transformation Pill, let's have a fair and square battle!"
Ye Xue's eyes turned cold, and he sneered: "So you're just a junior from the Blue family! What status do you have to want to fight with me? Who here isn't your uncle or elder brother? I'm talking to your uncles, what right do you have to interrupt? Get out of here, you insolent thing!"
Lan Shao's face turned iron-green as he almost spat out blood from his rage.
He is a genius of the Lan family, only three or four years older than Ye Xu, and is a key cultivation object of the Lan family. In the future, it is not impossible for him to inherit the position of the Lan family's master.
"Hey, good nephew, call me Uncle Zhou and I'll put in a good word for you with Uncle Ye. Otherwise, your Uncle Ye might just come to the Blue family himself and take on the whole clan single-handedly."
The master of the Lan family's face changed slightly, and he was also worried that Ye Xu would destroy the Lan family. He shouted at Lan Shaoyou: "You little beast, your uncle taught you well, this is all your uncles' place, where do you have the right to speak? Get out!"
Lan Shaoyou's face turned red, he opened his mouth to speak, but the master of the Lan family waved his hand and a surge of true energy swept him out of the door.
Liang Wang coughed, raised his wine cup and laughed: "Everyone, today is Xiao Wang's birthday, why must you ruin the harmony for some trivial matters? Sit down, everyone sit down."
Everyone sat down one after another, and Ye Xu also took a seat.
Gu Yan swept his gaze around, seeing that everyone dared to be angry but not dare to speak up. He couldn't help but feel complacent: "My vision isn't bad either, Ye old brother is indeed able to keep Qingzhou under control. Handing over the Qingzhou branch to him to manage makes me feel at ease."
"On this occasion of King Liang's sixtieth birthday, my family has prepared thirty pieces of rhinoceros skin, sixty pieces of tiger and leopard skin, ten stalks of thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, eighty catties of various medicinal materials, and twenty piculs of refined iron to congratulate King Liang on his longevity!" The head of the Ding family said loudly.
The other family heads reported their congratulations, generous and open-handed. Niu Mei waited for everyone to finish speaking, then said in a deep voice: "Wan Fa's demon king pays respects to Liang Wang on his birthday, presenting him with the magic treasure Bi Luo Boat, hoping that Liang Wang can often board the boat and go to Luo Fu Island as a guest!"
The crowd was in an uproar as the Great Demon King of the Myriad Laws made his move, displaying a grand and majestic bearing that left people staring in awe.
These wealthy families, although rich and sufficient, have a small number of witch treasures, which are extremely rare and precious. They are all treasured as family heirlooms, so how could they bear to give them away? But the Ten Thousand Law Demon King easily took out one and gave it to Liang Wang as a congratulatory gift!
Liang Wang couldn't help but be moved, and hastily got up to thank him, saying: "How can a humble king like myself deserve such a generous gift from the Great Lawless King?"
Gu Xiang rose to his feet and laughed, saying: "My Five Poisons Sect is located in the poor and barren land of Lingnan, with nothing valuable to offer. I have prepared a Hundred Toxins Flag, which I respectfully present to King Liang as a birthday gift!" As soon as he finished speaking, a small flag flew out from his Jade Building, fluttering and floating gently before landing in front of King Liang.
Another treasure!
Everyone was in an uproar, lowering their heads and whispering to each other, discussing it heatedly.
The two major forces, the Five Poisons Sect and the Luo Fu Island, are far beyond what these witch families can compare to. They can easily take out a precious artifact, their generosity is stunning!
Ye Xuan gazed intently, and saw that this Hundred Toxins Flag was similar in shape to the small black flag he had obtained from the Five Poisons Cave Mansion, but the aura it emitted was far inferior. He thought to himself: "It seems that even among identical talismans, there are differences in power. This Hundred Toxins Flag is far weaker than the one crafted by the master of the Five Poisons Cave Mansion... That Hundred Toxins Flag, without anyone invoking it, could rely on its own aura to float in mid-air, its power far surpassing that of ordinary talismans..."
Fang Chen also noticed this and a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes.
Ding's master coughed and said with a cold smile, "I wonder what kind of congratulatory gift Master Ye has prepared for Prince Liang? Can you take it out and let us see?"
Lan family's master chuckled and said, "Brother Ye, as the leader of the Five Poisons Sect's branch, you're wealthy and arrogant. Don't tell me you're too stingy to even send a longevity gift?"
Jiang's family head smiled and shook his head: "Does Ye Mou think he can get a free meal?"
Gu's words stirred something in his heart, and he pondered whether to secretly give some precious items to Ye Xu, so as not to lose face. This time, he indeed didn't think it through and hadn't prepared any gifts for Ye Xu.
But at this moment, Ye Xuan stood up and bowed to Liang Wang, smiling: "Liang Wang, I came in a hurry and didn't prepare any unusual birthday gifts."
Ding's master sneered: "Ye, if you haven't prepared a gift, Liang Wang won't blame you. You can still eat."
Ye Xu smiled slightly, not taking it seriously, and said in a loud voice: "I heard that the Liang Wang Fu had a Tianxiang Xunming Dan stolen by thieves, so I specially bought one from the master of the Hundred Flowers Palace to present to King Liang for his birthday!"
Everyone was stunned and looked disbelieving.
Tian Xiang Xu Ming Dan, although only a single pellet of medicine, is a life-saving treasure. In terms of value, it surpasses even ordinary magical artifacts. To give away this one pellet of medicine shows extraordinary generosity, exceeding that of the Five Poisons Sect and the Ten Thousand Laws Demon King!
Ten years ago, at the grand birthday celebration of Liang Wang, the master of Baihua Palace presented a Tianxiang Xunming Dan, which won first prize and left a lasting impression, with people still reminiscing about that grand event from time to time.
Ye Xue lifted up the jade tower, took out a jade box. As soon as the jade box was opened, a snow-white and translucent dan medicine slowly rose up and floated in mid-air.
In the medicine, a white-clad girl danced lightly, just like a real person. Suddenly, a faint scent of medicine wafted out, and several family members who smelled this fragrance felt that the injuries inflicted by Ye Xu seemed to have eased a lot.
This is genuine Tianxiang Shunming Dan, no doubt about it!
The emergence of this Tianxiang Xunming Dan is even more magnificent than that grand occasion ten years ago!
"Shaobu's guts are too big..."
Zhou Shiwen, Fang Chen, and Gong Yangying exchanged a glance, their eyelids twitching. The three of them knew the origin of this dan medicine, which was exactly the one Ye Sidao had snatched from Liang Wang's hands. Now, Ye Xu actually returned it openly!
"If Liang Wang were to find out that this Tian Xiang Xu Ming Dan was the one that had been snatched from him, it's likely that another bloody storm would erupt..."
Liang Wang looked at the spiritual pill, his expression changed, and his dislike for Ye Xuan vanished. His whiskers trembled slightly as he stood up and said: "This great gift I accept, Mr. Ye has spent a lot, please sit!" His words were much more polite now, and despite Ye Xuan's young age, he was addressed as 'Mr.', acknowledging his position as the leader of the Qingzhou branch of the Five Poisons Sect!
