The banquet began.
In this small hall, there were only three Gu Immortals, Fang Yuan, Wu An, and Chi Shang. Wu An was naturally a bystander, the main point was the interaction between Fang Yuan and Chi Shang.
Fang Yuan toasted Chi Shang, he spoke politely and had a smile on his face, his words were full of praise for Chi Shang's formation path attainment.
One would not slap a smiling face.
Chi Shang was muddle-headed, he drank a lot of wine like this.
He sized up Fang Yuan, looking at him from a different perspective.
"Wu Yi Hai, this fellow, is actually quite friendly. What happened earlier? Was he purposely provoking me? Or does he have something to ask of me? "Chi Shang muttered.
"I won't hide it from you, Chi Shang, I admire talented people like you the most in my life!" Fang Yuan laughed loudly, toasting him.
Chi Shang mumbled as he raised his wine cup, before Fang Yuan even drank, he drank a mouthful himself.
It turned out that Fang Yuan's continuous toasts had become Chi Shang's conditioned reflex.
But Fang Yuan's words were really pleasing to the ears. Especially since he was Fang Yuan's love rival, such compliments gave Chi Shang a huge sense of achievement.
"No."
"I need to be vigilant!"
"Wu Yi Hai might also be acting, he is very cunning."
Chi Shang did not lower his guard, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt that Fang Yuan's smile was sincere and sincere.
Hehe, not mentioning Fang Yuan's acting skills, just his attitude Gu was not a joke.
"Chi Shang, please take a look." Fang Yuan stretched out his hand, handing an information path mortal Gu to Chi Shang.
"What is this?" Chi Shang muttered to himself, he took a look and his expression changed.
It turned out that this information path mortal Gu was the letter Fang Yuan was going to give to Qiao Si Liu. But in the letter, Fang Yuan was full of praise for Chi Shang, he was full of praises, he even admitted his own inadequacies. Previously, he challenged Chi Shang with a difficult problem of formations, he was purely overestimating himself, he was showing off in front of an expert, he did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, he was not worthy of being a hero of the Southern Border.
Of course, there was no such thing as "displaying one's slight skill before an expert" in this world.
When Chi Shang read the letter, he felt a little embarrassed.
Fang Yuan's words of praise were indeed a little exaggerated.
"Am I really that outstanding?"
"The title of Southern Border's hero, I've never thought of it that way."
"I wonder what Fairy Si Liu will think when she sees this letter."
All kinds of thoughts emerged in his mind, Chi Shang could not help but feel excited.
When he looked at Fang Yuan again, his gaze changed again.
Fang Yuan sat down beside Chi Shang. Chi Shang didn't feel disgusted by this intimate action.
"Chi Shang, in the entire Southern Border Gu Immortal world, I'm afraid only your talent is worthy of Fairy Si Liu. I am convinced of this! "Fang Yuan laughed loudly.
"Oh?" Chi Shang did not know what to say, he had joy on his face, but also suspicion.
Fang Yuan continued: "But I will not give up, a fair and graceful woman is a gentleman's dream, even though my talent is not as good as yours, I will work harder. You won me this time, we will compete fairly in the future! What do you think? "
Hearing this, the suspicion on Chi Shang's face melted, he raised his cup for the first time, toasting Fang Yuan: "Good, fair competition! Gentlemen should compete fairly. "
His meaning was that he was treating Fang Yuan as a gentleman.
Fang Yuan laughed heartily, patting Chi Shang's shoulder: "To speak the truth, I loathe other rivals in love, but you, Chi Shang, are different, you are talented and righteous, I admire you. If you gain Fairy Si Liu's favor in the future, I will definitely bless you two, because I know that if I lose to you, I will not feel wronged! As for the others, hmph, they are all clowns. "
Chi Shang felt embarrassed from the praise, he rubbed his nose and said: "Actually, there are some experts among the others."
"We won't get to know each other if we don't fight, come, let's drink!" Fang Yuan raised his cup again.
Chi Shang's actions were even more direct: "Drink!"
He raised his head and gulped, a large cup of wine went down his throat.
Next, he burped, his face turned red.
"Straightforward!" Fang Yuan gave a thumbs up, personally pouring another cup for Chi Shang.
His smile was warm and passionate, it was very sincere.
But the truth was, he was calm inside, he recalled the information regarding Chi Shang.
Wu clan's information network was trustworthy.
Fang Yuan already knew: When Chi Shang was young, Chi Qu You took a fancy to him due to an accident, recognizing his talent in formation path, he was heavily nurtured.
Chi Shang had the title of 'formation fanatic' in Chi clan.
He was selected when he was young, and sent to the back cave of Myriad Snake Mountain to cultivate. This lasted for thirty years.
When he was over forty years old, he came out of seclusion with only rank three cultivation, but in the clan competition, he surpassed rank four and five Gu Masters in setting up Gu formations, his formation path attainment shocking the Chi clansmen.
Later on, the clansmen learned that the reason Chi Shang left the mountain was because he got lost and accidentally walked out.
His performance in the competition earned him fame, wealth and beauties came one after another, but he rejected them all, his only request was to enter the cave again and continue his closed cultivation to research formation path.
This matter alerted the supreme elders.
Chi Qu You allowed Chi Shang's request, he even created a cave for him, with servants serving him every day.
Chi Shang continued to research, his diligence and obsession were shocking, it was as if his only joy in life was to research formation path.
He immersed himself in it, ignoring the outside world's clamor, he lived in his cave without seeing the light of day, immersing himself in formation path cultivation.
When his hair turned white and he was about to die, Chi Qu You met him again and asked him: Do you have any regrets in this life? What regrets do you have before you die?
Chi Shang cried loudly, he said: "Life is short, a hundred years is just a blink of an eye, I still have a lot of formation path research to do, how can I be satisfied? This is my greatest regret. "
Chi Qu You sighed deeply, he actually gave a lifespan Gu to Chi Shang.
Chi Shang obtained it and regained his youth, he gained lifespan again.
Chi Qu You discussed formation path with him, guiding him for three days and three nights, he finally confirmed that Chi Shang was the clan's hope, his formation path attainment could reach great grandmaster in the future!
Chi Qu You did not just say it, he used the clan's resources to nurture Chi Shang.
With the clan's help, Chi Shang's cultivation level rose rapidly, he became an immortal. In just a few decades, he became a rank seven Gu Immortal.
But even after becoming an immortal, he did not break away from his previous habits.
He was still immersed in the Array Dao and continued to study it. Day and night, he would cultivate in seclusion for years, even decades.
The only shocking thing was that he pursued Qiao Si Liu with a firm attitude.
When this news got out, Chi clan's jaws dropped, they learned that other than formation path, Chi Shang also liked women!
When he obtained Wu clan's information, Fang Yuan felt that Chi Shang was an interesting person.
Precisely because of this, Fang Yuan used a special method to deal with Chi Shang.
Earlier, he did not meet Chi Shang, it was Fang Yuan's scheme. Purposely challenging Chi Shang with a formation path problem was the next step of Fang Yuan's plan, this banquet was also part of Fang Yuan's plan.
Chi Shang's performance was not out of Fang Yuan's expectations.
Everything proceeded in an orderly manner.
Not long ago, Qiao Si Liu's letter was also within Fang Yuan's expectations. As one of the people involved, Qiao Si Liu had to express her attitude.
Even though she did not say it, she told Fang Yuan about the first time she met Chi Shang.
According to Qiao Si Liu, back then, she came to Chi clan with Qiao clan's mission, she was received by Chi clan's first supreme elder's son, Gu Immortal Chi Bang.
Who knew that Chi Bang's words were frivolous, he purposely used the beautiful scenery to recite poems to tease Qiao Si Liu.
Normally, Qiao Si Liu would not get angry. But back then, Qiao Si Liu was Qiao clan's envoy, Chi Bang's actions were disrespectful to Qiao clan, Qiao Si Liu harbored hatred in her heart.
To deal with it, Qiao Si Liu purposely got close to Chi Shang.
Chi Bang was Chi Qu You's son, he was the next first supreme elder of Chi clan, he was second only to Chi Shang, no one dared to provoke him, except for the formation fanatic Chi Shang.
Chi Shang did not know the details, he did not speak to Qiao Si Liu at first, but Qiao Si Liu purposely talked about formation path, she told him about some of Qiao clan's formation path records.
Chi Shang was attracted, he was very interested.
Qiao Si Liu used Chi Shang to deal with Chi Bang, Chi Bang was helpless, he could only apologize to Qiao Si Liu secretly.
Qiao Si Liu successfully completed the clan's mission, she returned with great rewards, she also gained her most passionate pursuer, Chi Shang.
Qiao Si Liu's letter gave Fang Yuan important information, he had a clear understanding of Chi clan's internal affairs.
"Chi clan's first supreme elder has a limited lifespan, he can no longer use lifespan Gu. But his son Chi Bang only became an immortal because of his protection, he is not talented enough. "
"Chi Qu You was well aware of his son's abilities, but he wanted him to become the future first supreme elder of Chi Clan. So after realizing Chi Shang's personality and talent, he poured resources into him and groomed such a formation fanatic."
"As long as he has the formation fanatic's protection, Chi Bang has a high chance of becoming the next first supreme elder. And because of the formation fanatic's respect and admiration towards Chi Qu You, he cannot escape from Chi Bang's control. "
"Familial love … hehe."
Qiao Si Liu's letter allowed Fang Yuan to see the internal politics of Chi clan.
Because of these internal and external reasons, a talent like Chi Shang was created. At the same time, some of Fang Yuan's suspicions towards Chi Shang were resolved.
"Come! Wu Yi Hai, let me toast you. "At this time, Chi Shang raised his wine cup towards Fang Yuan, interrupting Fang Yuan's thoughts.
