Qin Mu left Saint Arrival Mountain and returned to Imperial College. Gu Linuan immediately ran over and set up a banquet to welcome Qin Mu back.
Qin Mu stared with his eyes wide open and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He smiled and said, "Lord Gu, why do you have to do this?"
Gu Linuan smiled and said, "We're all of the devil path so we should naturally support each other. Cult Master Qin, is Junior Protector Sword still working? "
"It's working. I'm not returning it. "
Qin Mu explained, "The rules of our Great Ruins …"
"I know!"
Gu Linuan laughed loudly, "I've lived in Great Ruins for two hundred years so I know the rules of Great Ruins. We never return things that we've swindled or snatched! Aren't you treating me as an outsider? Look, aren't you treating me as an outsider again? Hahahaha! I've lived in Great Ruins for two hundred years and Great Ruins is half my hometown. We're half a fellow countryman! Cult Master Qin has returned from my hometown so I should treat you to a meal to ease my homesickness. "
Qin Mu was dumbfounded and sighed, "Lord Gu's realm is high, little brother admires you."
"You flatter me, you flatter me! Cult Master Qin is the one with many talents, born as a hero. "
The two of them flattered each other and Gu Linuan sighed ruefully, "When I first saw you in Great Ruins, I knew you weren't mediocre and would definitely soar in the future. I didn't expect this day to come so quickly. Cult Master Qin … Tsk, calling you Cult Master Qin is treating me as an outsider, isn't it? Cult Master, due to this incident, there are many vacancies in the imperial court for first and second ranking officials. Can Cult Master help me make some arrangements? "
Qin Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Lord Gu, I'm just a small fifth-ranking official …"
"If Cult Master doesn't regard me as an outsider, you can call me Linuan."
Qin Mu composed himself and said, "I'm only a fifth-ranking palace grandee and don't have any real power so how would I have the right to ask about the promotion of first and second ranking officials? Furthermore, to be honest, the sword that killed the crown prince was this Junior Protector Sword that I swindled from Lord Gu. The emperor actually has some grudges in his heart and has some misgivings about our Heavenly Saint Cult. If I suggest to the emperor to promote Lord Gu, it would be harming you..
Gu Linuan smiled and said, "That's the logic. Cult Master is brilliant. Let me propose a toast to Hierarch. "
He was an understanding person. This time, the purpose of inviting Qin Mu to the banquet was not to let Qin Mu speak to the Emperor for promotion. Instead, it was to connect with Qin Mu and resolve the previous grudges.
Regardless of whether Qin Mu was favored by the Emperor or not, he had to pull the strings.
The devil cult master of Heavenly Devil Cult was an existence on the same level as Rulai and Dao Master. Building a good relationship with Qin Mu was equivalent to building a good relationship with Rulai and Dao Master. If he could do it with just a banquet, it was naturally a profitable business.
After the feast, Gu Linuan personally sent Qin Mu back to Scholar's Residence. On the way back, Qin Mu noticed that there were some foreigners in Imperial College and couldn't help being bewildered.
"After the chaos, the new Crown Prince decreed the annulment of the treaty signed by the rebels and took back the land. Some foreign countries were frightened and sent envoys to learn about Yankang culture."
Gu Linuan saw his doubt and said, "The Crown Prince is kind enough to allow foreigners to study in Yankang while some of the descendants of foreign nobles study in Imperial College."
Qin Mu nodded. Suddenly, he saw a familiar face and was slightly stunned. He smiled at the youth and said, "Pangong Tso!"
The youth was a barbarian from the prairie. He turned his head back to look at Qin Mu with a slightly puzzled gaze. There were numerous foreign retainers beside him, and there were even two great shamans from Golden Palace of Loulan.
Pangong Tso asked the people beside him in a low voice, and one of the great shamans immediately whispered to him. Pangong Tso came to a realization and returned the greeting to Qin Mu indifferently. "So it's Heavenly Devil Cult Master. Cult Master, what's the matter? "
Qin Mu was stunned for a moment before shaking his head. "Nothing."
Pangong Tso walked away with everyone.
Qin Mu frowned slightly, and Gu Linuan saw it and asked, "Cult Master, you recognize this Pangong Tso?"
"He is the youngest son of Barbarian Di Empire's Great Khan, Pangong Tso. I once saw him practicing his fist at the border. His fist skill has a very unique bearing, so it should be a kind of unique constitution."
Qin Mu looked at Pangong Tso's back and pondered. "He had once challenged Chancellor Ba Shan and said he would definitely defeat him in the future, which left a deep impression on me. However, why does it seem like it's his first time seeing me … "
Gu Linuan smiled and said, "With the temperament of a youth, he most likely forgot."
Qin Mu returned to Scholar's Residence, and Dragon Unicorn was lying outside the room. When Qin Mu came to the room, he felt that it was cold and cheerless. He couldn't get used to it.
"If only Ling'er was here." He sighed ruefully in his heart.
If Hu Ling'er was here, she would definitely tidy the room and make it very comfortable.
Suddenly, Dragon Unicorn's voice came from outside, and it asked in a low and muffled voice, "Miss, who are you looking for?"
"Is your Cult Master Qin here?" a pleasant voice came from outside.
"Yes."
