Chapter 1349

The day of the Xuanwu Banquet had arrived.

First-rate forces from all over the Longevity World had gathered in the Galaxy Forest. The port beside the island was filled with interstellar spaceships.

Just after midnight, an open-air venue in the center of the island welcomed guests from all over.

The venue was built around the towering trees on the island. It didn't look luxurious at all. Instead, it gave off a sense of tranquility.

Everyone knew that Senior Xuanwu was the longest-living being in the Longevity World. He had always been quiet and peaceful, so it wasn't strange that he chose such a place to hold the banquet.

"It's already been two days. Young Master Chen hasn't returned since. Now that the Xuanwu Banquet is about to begin, what is he thinking?"

At the entrance of the venue, Chu Meixin whispered to Granny Shu as the Qi Clan's group stepped in.

"There's something fishy about this. In the worst case scenario, he might already be dead." Granny Shu looked around the venue and pretended to be curious. She transmitted her voice to Chu Meixin in her mind.

"Dead? With his strength, how could he have died so easily? How did Granny Shu come to such a conclusion? "

Chu Meixin's expression changed. She didn't want to believe it.

It was rare for someone of the same age to surpass her in all aspects. She had been using him as a motivation to spur her on, but his sudden death was hard to accept.

"I'm just guessing. Didn't you notice that after Young Master Chen went missing, the Qi Clan's ancestor also became a little strange?" Granny Shu said meaningfully.

"What's strange? He's been in a good mood ever since Young Master Chen went missing, but that's human nature. "Chu Meixin pondered.

"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about his attitude towards us."

Granny Shu glanced at the Qi Clan's ancestor not far away. He was chatting happily with the leaders of the various forces.

"We came here because of Young Master Chen. But the Qi Clan's ancestor's attitude towards us hasn't changed since Young Master Chen went missing for two days. Don't you think it's strange?"

"Maybe he sensed Granny's strength and doesn't want to fall out with you," Chu Meixin mused.

"I don't think he has that kind of insight. If he did, he would have come looking for us when we first arrived at the Qi Clan."

"Moreover, although he seems to be ignoring us, I've noticed him spying on us several times. In my opinion, he must have been instructed by someone to monitor us."

Granny Shu's five senses were frighteningly sharp. If the Qi Family's ancestor heard this, his expression would probably change drastically.

"Could it be Childe Chen's order? Although we have reached an agreement with him, we both know that there is no binding force. "Chu Meixin guessed again.

"Do you know how I determined that Young Master Chen might be dead?"

Granny Shu sat down on the seat the maid had arranged for her. She tapped the ground lightly with her walking stick.

"That Qi Clan's Ancestor Xuan has been in an exceedingly good mood for the past two days. He doesn't seem to be under anyone's control at all. If it wasn't for Young Master Chen's accident, how could his attitude have changed so much?"

"Combined with his attitude towards us, I'm afraid that someone killed Young Master Chen for him and made him work for us to monitor us."

Granny Shu had actually guessed most of the truth of the matter accurately.

"If that's the case, aren't we in danger?"

Chu Meixin's expression became very solemn. Granny Shu's idea was very bold, but she was clear that it was entirely possible.

"The person behind this is indeed not simple to be able to kill Young Master Chen. Now that we are being monitored, our situation is indeed not good."

"However, the situation on this island is very complicated. Since the other party did not attack directly, they must have some reservations. Let's take one step at a time."

"If things don't work out, I will first escort you out of this place. At most, we won't get involved in the chaotic mystic land."

Granny Shu sighed.

"But if we miss out on this opportunity, we might not get another chance."

Chu Meixin pursed her lips. They had come all the way to the Longevity Realm. How could they be willing to return empty-handed?

"Ah, what a beautiful lady!"

Chu Meixin was conversing with Granny Shu telepathically when an unruly voice suddenly came from beside her.

She turned her head and saw a fatty leading a group of guards, looking exactly like a rich second generation ancestor. He walked towards her with large strides, his eyes shining.

"Eh, it's Qian Darong from the Qian Family. Where's the ancestor of the Qian Family? Since when did this fatty make the decisions in the Qian Family? "

"Don't you know? The Qian Family's Old Ancestor passed away two months ago. Now, the Qian Family is under this fatty's control. "

"The Qian Family's Old Ancestor passed away? This is big news. What a pity, Qian Darong has always been unreliable. I'm afraid the Qian Family is going to decline from now on. "

"Shh! Fatty Qian is coming, don't let him hear you. "

The guests at the next table were whispering to each other, but when they saw Fatty Qian approaching, they immediately shut their mouths.

"May I know this young lady's name?"

Fatty Qian came in front of Chu Meixin and fawned over her. As he spoke, he actually swallowed his saliva.

Chu Meixin instinctively felt uncomfortable. She didn't know why the way this fatty looked at her felt a little perverted.

She turned around and ignored him. There were many things worthy of her attention at the Xuanwu Banquet. She didn't have the mood to pay attention to a lecherous person.

Seeing Chu Meixin ignoring him, Fatty Qian wasn't angry. He kicked the Qi Family's elder who was sitting at the same table as her.

"Go! Go sit somewhere else. I'm taking this place. "

The Qi Family's elder's face turned ashen, but he endured it and turned around to consult the Qi Family's ancestor.

The Qian Family was the wealthiest family in the Longevity World. Before the Qian Family's Old Ancestor passed away, he was the person with the longest lifespan other than the Black Tortoise Old Ancestor.

It was said that the Qian Family's wealth reached the heavens. Their businesses covered every world under the jurisdiction of the Thunder County, even reaching the other counties. One could say that their influence was even greater than the Qi Family.

He didn't dare to offend this kind of family.

"Give the seat to him."

The Qi Family's ancestor smiled and ordered the elder. Obviously, he wasn't angry.

The elder could only helplessly look for another seat. As for Fatty Qian, he sat down beside Chu Meixin.

"Old Ancestor Qian has just passed away. Young Master Qian, my condolences."

The Qi Family's ancestor was in a good mood these past two days, so he took the initiative to talk to Fatty Qian.

"Thank you for your concern, Daoist Qi." Fatty Qian replied with a smile, without a hint of sadness.

The Qi Family's ancestor harrumphed coldly in his heart. No matter what, he and the Qian Family's ancestor were of the same generation, yet this fatty addressed him as someone of the same generation. It was too impolite.

However, he had a rough understanding of what kind of person this fatty was. Greedy and lecherous, with an average cultivation. With such a person at the helm of the Qian Family, the Qian Family was destined to decline. There was no need to bicker with him.

Compared to him, there were many things that were worthy of his attention in this Xuanwu Banquet.

Fatty Qian and the Qi Family's ancestor only exchanged a few words before his attention was focused on Chu Meixin. He kept trying to strike up a conversation with her.

Chu Meixin kept replying to him, feeling extremely annoyed.
