Chapter 1 A Difficult Choice

Lu Changsheng was caught in a dilemma.

On one hand, there was the Xuanhuang Qilin, a divine beast of heaven and earth, ranked among the top five. It had both prestige and power.

On the other hand, there was the Dragon-Horse, also a divine beast of heaven and earth, ranked among the top fifteen. Although not as eye-catching as the Qilin, the Dragon-Horse was the exclusive mount of peerless immortals, and it was extremely fast. It was a divine beast naturally suited to be a mount, and there was a saying that specialization in a profession was key.

Lu Changsheng fell into deep thought.

"Third Brother, I run fast, and how could I let Third Brother suffer?"

The Dragon-Horse said this.

"Eighth Brother, although what you said is right, the problem is that this time Big Brother is going to participate in the Heavenly Pride Gathering. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers there, many strong people. The main thing is, that group of people has always looked down on our Big Brother, saying that our Big Brother doesn't even have a decent mount."

"So, Eighth Brother, let me do it."

Gu Aotian's words moved Lu Changsheng immensely, and the Dragon-Horse was also touched.

"Third Brother, I'm crying, but you should still call me Lao Ma. Lao Ba sounds a bit weird."

Ma De Kuai was indeed touched, but this title made him feel very strange.

"Okay, Lao Ma, let Third Brother have it this time, and let Big Brother ride you in the future, okay?"

Gu Aotian said earnestly.

"Okay!"

The Dragon-Horse nodded.

And Lu Changsheng had nothing to say. Since Gu Aotian was giving him so much face, Lu Changsheng kept this kindness in his heart.

Brothers, in the heart.

Riding the Qilin again, Lu Changsheng's aura reached its peak once more.

The Dragon-Horse on the side revealed an expression of envy.

He looked at Lu Changsheng, like a banished immortal, so handsome that it was unbelievable, with a transcendent temperament, riding a Qilin, simply a handsome and jade-like figure.

At this moment, he couldn't help but imagine Lu Changsheng riding on him.

Presumably, it would be just as dazzling, right?

"Go!"

Gu Aotian shouted loudly, and then disappeared from the spot, while the Dragon-Horse followed behind, running.

At the same time.

Mingyue Ancient City.

The Heavenly Pride Gathering had already begun.

The Heavenly Pride Gathering generally consists of three steps.

The first step is the gathering of heavenly prides, where everyone sits together eating and drinking, with the city lord footing the bill.

The second step is to arrange an activity based on the characteristics of the ancient city for everyone to show their talents. Coincidentally, the Spirit Treasure Conference is being held in Mingyue Ancient City, so the second step is to have the heavenly prides find treasures at the Spirit Treasure Conference.

The so-called Spirit Treasure Conference is a large-scale market transaction where cultivators from all over the world gather to take out some treasures and sell them for spirit stones.

The last step is the competition, but this competition is optional.

But generally speaking, if someone takes the initiative to invite a challenge, it is basically not refused.

At this moment.

The Heavenly Pride Gathering had already begun.

Nine hundred and ninety-nine tables of banquets had been set up, and positions were divided according to status and position.

The Holy Sons of Zhongzhou basically sat at the front, and some heavenly prides from Dongtu also sat in the front. Of course, the heavenly prides from Nanling and Beiji also naturally sat in the front. Mingyue Ancient City had arranged the arrangement of this position clearly.

It won't be a mess.

However, there were four vacant seats in the banquet.

"Brother Li and Brother Wang, have they not arrived yet?"

The banquet had already started, and countless beauties were singing and dancing, but at this moment, Zhang Yuanru's voice slowly sounded.

Because he found that Wang Xuanji and Li Rulong had not yet appeared, so there were two empty seats.

"Brother Li and Brother Wang went to Tianyuan Holy Land to observe, and they should be here in a while."

A cultivator spoke, explaining this way.

"So that's how it is. I thought they were afraid, so they didn't come."

Zhang Yuanru made a joke, but everyone could hear the meaning of Zhang Yuanru's words.

This was mocking Lu Changsheng.

However, the cultivators in Zhongzhou were silent.

Although they were angry in their hearts, Lu Changsheng had indeed not come, and they had always heard that this Senior Brother Lu was very low-key and did not like such gatherings. They were indeed worried that Lu Changsheng would not come.

If he really didn't come, it would be a bit embarrassing.

"Presumably, Senior Brother Lu should be on his way. Fellow Zhongzhou Taoists, although the banquet has begun, let's wait a while. After all, our Zhongzhou etiquette is proper. Don't be like some barbarians, moving our chopsticks first."

The Holy Son of Shumen also spoke, saying this as a retort.

Immediately, the faces of the Dongtu cultivators were displeased, but the other party did not name names, so they could only hold their breath.

For a time, although the grand banquet was held, no one really moved their chopsticks.

The cultivators in Nanling and the cultivators in Beiji wanted to take a bite first, but they were afraid of being called barbarians, so they thought about it and still didn't move their chopsticks.

At the same time.

Within the borders of Mingyue Ancient City.

Lu Changsheng rode the Xuanhuang Qilin, traveling at extreme speed.

But just then.

A voice suddenly sounded.

"Fellow Daoist, please stay."

The voice sounded, and Lu Changsheng was inexplicably stunned.

Why did this sound so familiar?

He stopped, and the Dragon-Horse also stopped.

Immediately afterwards, two beams of light appeared in front of Lu Changsheng with a whoosh.

Two men.

One dressed in white robes, polite and refined.

One dressed in purple robes, with the stride of a dragon and the steps of a tiger.

"I am Wang Xuanji, greetings to fellow Daoist."

"I am Li Rulong, greetings to fellow Daoist."

The two bowed to Lu Changsheng at the first moment.

Then the two raised their heads, and then froze in the void.

Lu Changsheng was wearing a cyan cloud robe, his appearance was so handsome that it was suffocating, his temperament was otherworldly, like a banished immortal, handsome, and he was as gentle as jade, refined, and full of literary spirit, and his gestures were surrounded by the Great Dao.

Especially sitting on a Xuanhuang Qilin, it was simply too extraordinary.

Really! Wang Xuanji and Li Rulong were stunned in place. They had only seen Lu Changsheng's shadow in flight and noticed that it seemed to be a Qilin.

But they didn't expect it to be such a person.

Lu Changsheng's handsomeness and temperament surpassed the shock that the Qilin brought them.

He was too extraordinary and handsome, maybe ordinary immortals were not as handsome and extraordinary as him, right?

"Wang Xuanji?"

"Li Yunlong?"

Lu Changsheng spoke, he seemed to have heard these two names.

"Ahem, fellow Daoist, it's Li Rulong."

"Oh, oh, Li Rulong, Li Rulong!"

Lu Changsheng felt a little embarrassed, mainly because the name Li Rulong was too much like Li Yunlong.

"I am Lu Changsheng, greetings to the two fellow Daoists."

Lu Changsheng spoke, appearing even more polite.

"Hiss!"

"Hiss!"

After Lu Changsheng announced his name, the two were shocked in an instant!

A look of disbelief appeared in their eyes.

"You, you are Lu Changsheng? Senior Brother Lu?"

Wang Xuanji said with a shocked expression.
