Di Tian was brought to a majestic public square. The banquet here had already been prepared and experts were as common as the clouds. Today, there were actually several hundred people here.
In addition, each of them exuded an extraordinary aura. Other than those serving girls, more than half of them were immortal emperors. How terrifying.
When Di Tian and his group arrived, there were instantly people who came to welcome them.
"Grandmaster Di." A young man directly walked towards Di Tian. Although they had never met him before, Di Tian's mask was simply too conspicuous. As long as one heard of him, they would know who he was the moment they saw him.
"My name is Jialan Jun, I've long heard of Grandmaster Di's name. It's truly my fortune to be able to meet you today." Jialan Jun's tone was sincere and polite. As a young immortal emperor of the Jialan Clan, Di Tian actually couldn't sense any arrogance from him, only humility.
This made Di Tian sigh in admiration. There was indeed a reason why the Jialan Clan could be so powerful for so many years, able to contend against the Lifire Empyrean and not be at a disadvantage. The first impression Di Tian had was that the Jialan Clan's members were extremely outstanding.
"Brother Jialan is too polite." Di Tian nodded lightly.
"Grandmaster Di, please follow me." Jialan Jun bowed slightly, like a junior leading the way. He didn't feel the slightest bit unhappy that Di Tian had rejected their Jialan Clan's goodwill for the first time. He led Di Tian to a seat very close to them as he spoke, "Grandmaster, please take a seat."
Many people turned their gazes towards Di Tian as their eyes gleamed with sharpness. Seems like the Jialan Clan regarded Di Tian very highly.
But when one thought about it, this was only normal. Putting aside Di Tian's strength for now, just his proficiency in formations and weaponsmithing, in addition to the Emperor Pavilion he founded, was sufficient to win him respect. In addition, for such an outstanding weaponsmithing grandmaster, it was very difficult for him to not be respected by the dao. If they could gain the friendship of Grandmaster Di Tian, many would naturally be happy to see it happen.
Hence, many experts from the major powers all raised their wine cups and walked over to Di Tian's side to toast him. At the same time, they introduced themselves in a low voice, wanting to establish a good relationship with him in the future.
"Grandmaster Di Tian." A person in front of Di Tian called out. Di Tian glanced over and saw two people staring back at him. One was a middle-aged man with a smile on his face and the other was a young man with sharp eyes. The middle-aged man was a peak-stage immortal emperor while the young man was an initial-stage immortal emperor.
"I am Zhou Zhou, and this is my son, Zhou Yan," the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Uncle Zhou is the current clan leader of the Zhou Clan of the northern city regions. The previous generation of the Zhou Clan has a marriage relationship with our Jialan Clan." Jialan Jun, who was at the side, smiled. Di Tian nodded. Before this, his original body already knew that the Jialan Clan's influence in the northern city regions wasn't purely based on strength. There were many who were related by marriage, as well as those who had mutual benefits. The Jialan Clan has been in this region for far too many years and through generations of inheritance, there were many females from the Jialan Clan who married into the major powers of the northern city regions. In addition, once there was a marriage relationship, the Jialan Clan would do their best to support the growth of the bride and groom. Hence, many of the major powers that had a marriage relationship with the Jialan Clan all grew to become aristocratic clans.
From generation to generation, one could imagine how vast the Jialan Clan's social network was.
"I pay my respects to Senior Zhou." Di Tian smiled and nodded in return. In the Jialan Clan, he naturally knew that he should maintain a humble attitude. Right now, he had received a gift from the Jialan Clan. At the very least, on the surface, he had already boarded the Jialan Clan's ship.
"Grandmaster Di is too polite. Given Grandmaster Di's status, you can just call me by my name." Zhou Zhou laughed.
"Brother Zhou." Qin Wentian didn't stand on ceremony either, smiling as he called out.
"In that case, wouldn't I become a junior?" Zhou Yan who was at the side started. He then spoke in a somewhat depressed manner, "That won't do. Let's talk about our own matters. I think it's better for me to continue addressing you as Grandmaster Di."
"Haha, Brother Zhou Yan, feel free to do as you please." Di Tian laughed.
"Grandmaster Di, there's naturally no need for me to praise your weaponsmithing abilities. The entire Lifire City knows that you are extremely powerful but what is your current cultivation base? I actually have no way to tell." Zhou Yan curiously asked.
"I'm not as passionate about the martial path as I am about weaponsmithing. There's no need to mention it." Di Tian laughed. He used a sealing technique to conceal his current cultivation base.
"Actually, I'm a little puzzled. Since Grandmaster Di has such extraordinary achievements in weaponsmithing, I'm sure your talent in the martial path is also very high. Although Grandmaster Di's status isn't something Liu Feibai can compare to, why didn't Grandmaster Di teach Liu Feibai a lesson back then when he challenged him?" Zhou Yan laughed, causing the gazes of many to turn over.
If one were to say that Grandmaster Di had a stain on his reputation, this matter could be considered a small one. Although he had no reason to accept the challenge, he still chose to avoid it and didn't accept Liu Feibai's challenge.
"Maybe it's just like the rumors in the outside world. Although my weaponsmithing abilities are passable, my combat prowess is extremely weak. I have no way to defeat Liu Feibai and naturally chose to avoid the challenge." Di Tian didn't seem to mind Zhou Yan's words as he casually laughed.
"Is that so?" Zhou Yan's eyes gleamed with sharpness. "I don't really believe it."
"Zhou Yan, don't be rude." Zhou Zhou berated. Zhou Yan had an apologetic look on his face as he smiled at Di Tian and didn't say anything more.
Di Tian casually glanced at his surroundings. When he saw a figure, his eyes suddenly froze. His pupils shrank and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
The Jialan Monarch seemed to have sensed something. He turned his head back only to see Di Tian's eyes calmly looking at him. Upon seeing the Jialan Monarch looking over, Di Tian lightly nodded his head.
The Jialan Monarch smiled and nodded in reply. After that, he turned his gaze over, feeling some bewilderment in his heart. His senses had always been extremely sharp. Earlier, he clearly felt a trace of coldness but why did it vanish in the blink of an eye? Could it be that his senses were wrong?
Or could it be that he had offended Di Tian in some way?
Although the Jialan Monarch had been stationed outside for a long period of time, he also knew of Di Tian's identity. He was very sure that he had never interacted with a weaponsmith proficient in sealing before, let alone offending Di Tian.
Di Tian also paid more attention to the Jialan Monarch. If it was possible, he wanted nothing more than to kill the Jialan Monarch on the spot. Now that he encountered Di Tian here, he naturally wanted to observe him.
As one of the nine monarchs under the Lifire Palace, the Jialan Monarch's authority was extremely great. However, his status in the Jialan Clan wasn't too high. At the very least, some people in the Jialan Clan didn't respect him that much.
"That's my uncle, one of the nine monarchs in the Lifire Palace." Jialan Jun explained in a low voice when he saw Di Tian looking at the Jialan Monarch.
"As someone from the Jialan Clan, why would he be in charge of the Lifire Palace?" Di Tian curiously asked.
"Naturally, I fought for it from the upper echelons." Jialan Jun laughed. Di Tian started. The upper echelons might be referring to the upper echelons of the Lifire Palace. As expected, Jialan Jun had heaven-defying methods.
"Palace lord, I'm sure you have some objections, right?" Di Tian laughed.
"That's only natural. My Jialan Clan has always been extremely powerful. Even for Lifire City, the entire northern city regions are under our control. Among the nine monarchs …" Jialan Jun laughed as he spoke up to here. He didn't continue and continued, "Grandmaster, you should know that my Jialan Clan once fought for the position of the Lifire Palace Lord. We naturally want to seize it back."
Di Tian nodded lightly. Although this Jialan Jun's attitude was humble, when he spoke about the Jialan Clan, there was an unmasked pride in his voice.
"As for my uncle, we paid a huge price to nurture him into the position of the Lifire Palace Lord. As long as he can sit there stably and not be used against by the Lifire Palace, it's already sufficient. However, tens of years ago, he made a mistake that caused the position of the Jialan Monarch to be in jeopardy. This caused many people in the clan to feel that he had let down the expectations of the clan."
Jialan Jun transmitted his voice, he didn't say it out loud. He naturally had to take into consideration the Jialan Monarch. Seeing that Jialan Jun could say such words to him, Di Tian couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart. If Jialan Jun was really just a grandmaster weaponsmith and didn't have the status of Qin Wentian, it would be very easy for him to develop a favorable impression of the Jialan Clan.
"My elder sis is out." At this moment, Jialan Jun suddenly spoke. Di Tian turned his gaze ahead only to see a group of figures walking over. His gaze instantly landed on one of them. This woman was clad in a snow-white dress and exuded an air of elegance. Her eyes shone brightly, her nose was straight and her lips were red. Her skin was like jade and her skin was like jade. She was like a celestial maiden that descended from the heavens.
"Is she beautiful? My elder sis is known as the number one beauty in the northern city regions. Even in the entire Lifire City, there aren't many who can stand shoulder to shoulder with her." Jialan Jun laughed when he saw Di Tian's gaze.
"She is indeed beautiful." Di Tian nodded, not concealing anything. This maiden was truly a supreme beauty, there was no way to deny it.
"Fairy Qiuyue is truly more and more refined, like a celestial maiden from the heavens." Someone involuntarily praised.
"Jialan Jun, do you still need to ask about how beautiful your elder sis is?" Zhou Zhou also laughed.
"Mhm, in Lifire City, regardless of Fairy Qiuyue's beauty or cultivation talent, who doesn't know of her?" Jialan Jun smiled and nodded.
"Jialan Qiuyue, Jialan Mingyue." Di Tian mused. Jialan Mingyue should be considered Jialan Qiuyue's younger sister. Although they weren't blood-related, the disparity between the two of them was simply too great.
"Today is Qiuyue's birthday. Everyone, I'm filled with endless gratitude for you all coming." A middle-aged man beside Jialan Qiuyue smiled as he spoke. He was none other than Jialan Jun and Jialan Qiuyue's father, Jialan Cheng. He was also the eldest son of the current clan leader of the Jialan Clan. The old man standing between him and Jialan Qiuyue was none other than the clan leader of the Jialan Clan, Jialan Yuntian.
"Qiuyue is my most beloved granddaughter. Since everyone is willing to give me face by coming, it means that you're giving me face. I won't say anything more. Let the banquet begin, there's no need to feel restrained." Jialan Yuntian walked to the host's seat and sat down, allowing Jialan Qiuyue to sit beside him. He had many descendants, and Jialan Qiuyue had even more in this generation. However, Jialan Yuntian didn't hide the fact that Jialan Qiuyue was his most beloved granddaughter. From this, one could see how much he doted on her!
