He felt a strong force coming from Wu Renjie's hand, and Long Tianxiong couldn't help but walk forward. Long Tianxiong was shocked and felt dejected. He was afraid that Wu Renjie had already entered the Fasting State and he was no longer Wu Renjie's opponent.
Just as the thought fell, Wu Renjie laughed out loud and said,""Patriarch Long is too humble. I received a Fasting Pill thanks to my son Wu Yun, and I'm already in the first tier of the Fasting State.”
Wu Yun? Hearing this name, Long Tianxiong felt a wave of sadness in his heart. He had originally hoped that his daughter, Long Rui, would win the championship in the Dragon-Phoenix Tournament half a year later, but now, he was afraid that there was no hope.
Unknowingly, Long Tianxiong had already followed Wu Renjie to the main hall. In the main hall, Wu Renjie's wife, Li Dan, welcomed Long Tianxiong with a smile. The two of them led Long Tianxiong to his seat.
This inexplicable enthusiasm made Long Tianxiong feel as if he was sitting on a carpet of needles. He didn't know why he felt a chill down his spine.
As soon as they sat down, Steward Wu Can ordered a servant girl to bring a steaming hot cup of fragrant tea and personally handed it to Long Tianxiong.
Seeing this, Long Tianxiong wanted to ask Wu Renjie to help him find Long Zhantian, but he didn't know what to say. With his many years of experience, he felt that Wu Renjie must have something to discuss with him.
Sure enough, Wu Renjie said with a smile,""Master Long, do you have any impression of my three sons?”
Hearing Wu Renjie's question, Long Tianxiong guessed 90% of it. He was relieved and said seriously,""The three sons of the Wu family's head are dragons among men. Not only do they have an imposing appearance, but their cultivation is also not weak. Their future is limitless!!”
Hearing Long Tianxiong's reply, Wu Renjie and Li Dan looked at each other and smiled. They were obviously very happy. The two of them raised their teacups and greeted Long Tianxiong at the same time.
Just as he swallowed the tea, Hao Wu flashed into the hall and saluted Long Tianxiong,"Junior Hao Wu greets Uncle Long.”
Wu Renjie and his wife didn't say anything when they saw Hao Wu's reaction. Instead, they stared at Long Tianxiong. Long Tianxiong naturally knew what Wu Renjie and his wife were planning.
To be honest, Long Tianxiong was quite satisfied with the three sons of the Woo family, but he admired Wu Yun the most.
Hearing Hao Wu's greeting, he was slightly disappointed. He immediately raised his eyes and carefully sized up Hao Wu: "No need to be polite. He looks dignified and his cultivation is not weak either. He's probably at Lv 6 Qi Cultivation Realm, right?”
Hao Wu's eyes lit up as he proudly said,"Patriarch Huilong, that's right. I'm now at the Lv 6 Qi Cultivation Realm.”
Wu Renjie continued,""Master Long, this is my second son. He's fifteen this year and hasn't married yet. My son has been in love with Master Long's daughter for a long time. We are also very satisfied with your daughter. We also know that your daughter is not married yet. If Master Long likes her, I am willing to choose a date to go to the Long family to betroth her. I hope Master Long will not mind!!”
Long Tianxiong was stunned. He didn't expect Wu Renjie to be so direct. He didn't know whether to refuse or not. While they were hesitating, Wu Renjie and Li Dan's faces darkened, and a hint of viciousness flashed in their eyes.
On the other hand, Hao Wu was quite confident. He was confident that Long Tianxiong wouldn't give his father any face given his conditions and the power of the Wu family. As for Long Tianxiong's hesitation, he thought that it was just a gimmick for Long Tianxiong to raise his status.
After a while, Long Tianxiong said firmly,"Thank you, Patriarch Wu and Nephew Wu, for thinking so highly of my daughter. To be honest, I am also very satisfied with Nephew Wu. It's just that Long Rui has been spoiled by us all these years, and her personality is very strong. If her cultivation isn't stronger than hers, I'm afraid it'll be hard for her to be convinced.”
After saying that, Long Tianxiong said to Hao Wu,"Nephew Wu, you know what Uncle means, right?!”
After hearing Long Tianxiong's words, Wu Renjie's mood turned gloomy 'and he raised his teacup to signal Long Tianxiong again.
"Of course," Hao Wu replied loudly,"I'll work hard and train hard. I won't let uncle down." I'm going to practice now. I'll try my best to give uncle a satisfactory answer at the Dragon-Phoenix Competition in half a year's time. Goodbye!!”
Long Tianxiong pretended to be satisfied and nodded his head as he watched Hao Wu leave. When he turned around, Wu Renjie smiled and said to Long Tianxiong,""It seems that the Wu and Long families will become in-laws sooner or later. Just wait for my son's performance in the Dragon-Phoenix Competition. Once our families are connected by marriage, it will definitely be a good story in Fragrant City.”
Before Long Tianxiong could reply, Wu Renjie slapped his head and said loudly,""I don't come here without a reason. I'm afraid that Patriarch Long still has something I can help you with today?”
" Master Wu, you're being too serious. To be honest, I do have a favor to ask of you today." Long Tianxiong quickly stood up and briefly explained Long Zhantian's matter.
After hearing Long Tianxiong's words, Wu Renjie immediately said,""Patriarch Long, it's a small matter. I'll immediately ask the entire Wu Residence to search for Nephew Zhan Tian.”
"Thank you, Patriarch Wu. I'll go back now." Long Tianxiong quickly said. Please forgive me for disturbing you for such a long time!!”
After sending Long Tianxiong out of the door, Wu Renjie could not help but burst into laughter."It seems that the heavens have treated my Woo family well. I originally wanted to get rid of that trash, but I didn't expect that trash to actually go missing. Wouldn't the Long Family be mine?”
Thinking of this, Wu Renjie was ecstatic. The Long family had risen like a gust of wind more than ten years ago, which made him feel threatened. However, he did not know why the Long family was so powerful, so Wu Renjie did not dare to act rashly.
The moment he heard Long Tianxiong's visit, a plan immediately formed in his mind. Hao Wu was just a chess piece in this plan. As long as he married Long Rui, it would be equivalent to controlling half of the Long family with one hand. In the future, the Long family would not listen to him obediently!!
Once he took control of the Long Family, the balance between the three forces would be lost. The Yang Family would no longer be able to compete with him, and the entire Fragrant City would be under his control.
Even if Long Tianxiong rejected Hao Wu's marriage, he could still marry the Yang family according to this plan and control the entire Fragrant City.
However, the wily Wu Renjie still informed the servants and servants of the Wu Residence and instructed them to search for Long Zhantian in the city.
Not only that, but Wu Renjie also told them that no matter who found Long Zhantian, they would either get one middle-grade spirit stone or ten low-grade spirit stones. With this, the people and servants of the Wu Residence became enthusiastic and dispersed one after another.
After the servants and servants disappeared, Wu Renjie clapped his hands. Immediately, a gray figure appeared. His face was covered with a gray veil. He said indifferently,"Greetings, City Lord."
Wu Renjie waved at the gray figure and whispered into his ear when he got closer. After saying that, the gray figure nodded and disappeared from the hall in a flash.
After leaving the Woo Family, Long Tianxiong went to the Yang Family to ask for their help. Similarly, Yang Dingquan, the patriarch of the Yang family, also promised to arrange for his servants to find Long Zhantian. All of a sudden, people from all over the city were looking for Long Zhantian.
On the streets and in the taverns of Fragrant City, people were talking. Some said," That good-for-nothing Long Zhantian has gone missing. The heavens are really watching. That good-for-nothing has really disgraced our Fragrant City." With such good cultivation resources, he was still only at Lv 1 Qi Cultivation Realm.”
" It's still the Long Family's Patriarch who's so righteous. This Long Zhantian is only his foster son, and he's a complete good-for-nothing. He actually spent so much effort to find him…" someone said.
Some people even said,"Long Zhantian is really a good-for-nothing. I'm afraid he's lost his way and has even forgotten the way back to the Long Family."”
Someone even said mischievously,"Could it be that Long Zhantian is so happy that he doesn't even think about his home?"! Or maybe he forgot to bring money and was left behind by the girls.”The person who said this had a sharp mouth and ape-like cheeks. He had a "fascinated" look on his face. It seemed that he was also someone who knew this well.
In an instant, Long Zhantian's name once again spread throughout the whole of Fragrant City, making him, the "good-for-nothing", completely famous. There was envy and disdain in her tone.
After chatting for a while, some of them directly joined the army that was searching for Long Zhantian. After all, both the Woo Family and the Long Family had rewards, and the rewards were not bad.
At this moment, Long Zhantian was following behind the monkey at the foot of Heartbreak Cliff. The monkey seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for Long Zhantian as it steadily maintained a distance from Long Zhantian. Fortunately, the monkey was familiar with the terrain of Heartbreak Cliff and did not encounter any demonic beasts along the way.
After reaching a steep cliff, the monkey stopped and pointed at an unknown tree not far away with its furry finger. It kept squeaking.
After gaining a firm foothold, Long Zhantian followed the monkey's hand gesture and saw that the tree was only as thick as a bowl, but it was very straight and tall, about thirty to forty feet tall. There was a huge bird's nest made of dead branches on the tree. Other than that, there was nothing else.
Could it be that there was something mysterious about this bird's nest? Long Zhantian pondered for a moment, put the Dragon Slaying Sword under the tree, and then crawled toward the bird's nest.
Soon, he reached the bird's nest and looked inside. There was an egg the size of a bowl. In his joy, Long Zhantian reached out and put the egg in his arms before slowly climbing down.
Before Long Zhantian landed, he heard the monkey under the tree squeaking and fleeing in panic. Before he could react, Long Zhantian felt a huge figure flying down from the sky and pouncing on him.
