With her current status as Wu Xiong's woman, she didn't need to care about a small World Commerce Chamber. Now that she was here, Yue Qianchou had a better impression of himself. He sneered at himself for being afraid of retaliation for rejecting the other party's love. Yue Qianchou felt that there must be some unknown inside story and wondered if he should ask Mu Tianjiao if there was a chance.
In reality, they were overcomplicating the problem. Mu Tianjiao just couldn't handle the pressure from Immortal Palace.
Du Feng and Huo Yunlong were a little depressed because they brought up the topic of Mu Tianjiao. Since Mu Tianjiao had already become Wu Xiong's woman, Yue Qianchou couldn't say anything else. The atmosphere immediately became a little depressing. After they casually soaked in the hot spring, they got up.
After putting on their clothes, they walked out and saw Long Xiaojiu coming out as well. When they met, the men noticed that Long Xiaojiu was full of energy and radiant after her bath. They were all surprised by the miraculous effects of the spring bath. They couldn't help but look at each other and realized that the men hadn't changed much.
"Is Wan Ling still soaking in there?" Yue Qianchou looked at the other end of the tunnel and asked. Long Xiaojiu chuckled and said, "She encountered something unhappy, so she left first."
The men looked at each other and guessed that the two women might be fighting again. Yue Qianchou didn't say anything and led them out of the underground. After coming out, Shui Mingqing remembered what Yue Qianchou had told him and bade farewell to everyone.
Everyone thought that Wan Ling had left, but when they returned to the sixth floor, they found Wan Ling and Mu Tianjiao sitting opposite each other and chatting happily. When the two women saw them return, they stood up to greet them. Long Xiaojiu couldn't help but frown when she saw that Wan Ling seemed to be fine.
The sky was already close to dusk, and the guests were about to leave when Yue Qianchou smiled and urged them to stay. "My sixth floor has always been used to entertain guests, and I haven't used it even once. Everyone, please do me the honor! In the evening, I would like to invite all of you to the rooftop to watch the stars and admire the moon, and to taste my World Chamber of Commerce's barbecue and wine. "
Looking at the sky outside, Wan Ling hesitated before she said, "It's fine with us, but Sister Tian Jiao's identity is a little sensitive. I'm afraid it won't be convenient for her to spend the night with a bunch of men."
Yue Qianchou was stunned, "What does that have to do with anything? Aren't you and Miss Long a woman?"
Glancing at Long Xiaojiu, Wan Ling smiled. "Miss Long and I don't have a good reputation in this field. I'm afraid that we might implicate Sister Tian Jiao." She was really self-aware, but Long Xiaojiu was angered by her. It was all thanks to her that she was able to achieve her current reputation.
They all knew the meaning of her words. Mu Tianjiao's current identity was indeed very sensitive. A little bit of gossip could cause trouble. If Su Ye didn't return it and mixed with two women who were fighting over a man, who knew what kind of rumors would spread. Gossip was a fearful thing!
Hearing this, Yue Qianchou felt a toothache. In his mind, this was making a mountain out of a molehill, but if he was serious here, there were indeed many things to pay attention to. Seeing that he was having a headache, Du Feng smiled and said, "Brother Yue, you don't have to worry too much. With so many people in the World Chamber of Commerce, it's not like you can't find a woman! Just hire one to accompany the guests. With a woman by your side, you can more or less avoid suspicion. "
Yue Qianchou nodded slightly. There were also several women in the World Chamber of Commerce. After thinking about it, he still felt that it was most suitable for Lu Yanqing to accompany a guest like Mu Tianjiao. There was no need to do anything, just be a vase. In any case, it was just a decoration. This was because he found that other than treating people, Lu Yanqing basically couldn't do anything. Furthermore, her ability to handle things was extremely poor. He really didn't know how she had survived for so many years. Just like now, when she was given some work to do, she always had to get Wen Lanfeng's help in order to do it well. Just a small matter would require two people.
At this moment, someone came down to report that two of Mu Tianjiao's guards had come to pick her up. Yue Qianchou looked at Mu Tianjiao's intentions, then instructed his subordinate, "Invite them up, and also call Lu Yanqing over."
That person agreed and left. Not long later, the two golden-robed men arrived. Mu Tianjiao cupped her hands and bowed, "I won't be leaving today. I'll stay at the World Chamber of Commerce for the night and leave tomorrow. I'll have to trouble the two of you to stay here for the night." The two golden-robed men cupped their hands in agreement. They had no objections. They were originally sent by Wu Xiong to protect Mu Tianjiao or listen to her orders, so they had no right to control Mu Tianjiao's freedom.
Mu Tianjiao then said to Yue Qianchou with a smile, "I'll have to trouble Sect Leader Yue to arrange two rooms for them!"
Yue Qianchou nodded and said, "Since they were sent by the commander to protect you, then arrange for them to be on the left and right side of your room! What do you think? "Mu Tianjiao knew that he was using this to get Wu Xiong's people to avoid arousing suspicion, so she agreed.
The two maintained a certain level of respect in their words and actions. In reality, Yue Qianchou hated doing this kind of thing the most, because he knew that the two of them couldn't be pure friends. He was a man, and the other was Wu Xiong's woman. Even if the other party condescended to treat him, he still had to keep his distance. Even if the other party wasn't Wu Xiong's woman, imagine a man always maintaining a close friendship with someone else's wife?
Pure friendship? In his previous life, there might be quite a few pure and upright gentlemen who would agree with this reason. Of course, the important premise was that the other party's wife had to be ugly, making it hard for others to lay their hands on her. Otherwise, if pure and upright gentlemen saw the two of them being too close, there would inevitably be times when their stomachs would bubble. However, in this era where both men and women had long hair, if you were too close to someone else's wife, not to mention everything else, just their saliva could drown you.
Moreover, Yue Qianchou himself didn't believe that "handsome men and beautiful women" would always stick together and have a pure friendship. Perhaps there might be, but unfortunately, he had never encountered such a thing. Even if nothing happened, the hearts of both men and women would still itch. Of course, this was mainly because he wasn't broad-minded enough, always measuring the heart of a gentleman with the yardstick of a villain. There was no helping it. He felt like he was one of the many wolves, wearing sheep's clothing, but deep down, he was still a wolf. He also always imagined that he was the only wolf in the world, and that everyone else was a pure lamb …
Therefore, he consciously maintained an appropriate distance from Mu Tianjiao. Naturally, he took a fancy to Mu Tianjiao's identity and hoped that she could help him at a critical moment. And Mu Tianjiao condescended to come here, hoping to give the Four Links Chamber of Commerce an escape route in the uncertain future.
In reality, Du Feng and the others also tried their best to keep their distance from Mu Tianjiao. Of course, women like Wan Ling didn't have such scruples. Instead, the closer the relationship, the better.
Not long after, Lu Yanqing slowly arrived. Lu Yanqing's arrival immediately caused the eyes of the guests in the living room to light up. Although Du Feng and the others had entered the Divine Ruin Realm before, because Lu Yanqing didn't like to fight and kill, she always hid behind the lords of the various countries when they appeared. In addition, she knew that her appearance was outstanding, so when there were too many people, she tried her best not to show her face, so no one, including Mu Tianjiao, had seen her.
"This is Lu Yanqing." After Yue Qianchou introduced Lu Yanqing to everyone, he then introduced Mu Tianjiao to Lu Yanqing: "This is the fiancee of the Immortal Palace's External Affairs Commander Wu Xiong. It's inconvenient for her to stay with us men, so you should stay close to her before she leaves!"
Lu Yanqing faintly smiled at everyone. This smile immediately made Du Feng and Huo Yunlong unable to move their eyes away. Wan Ling and the other women suddenly felt ashamed of their inferiority. They didn't expect the World Chamber of Commerce to have such a beautiful woman.
"Help me greet the guests." Yue Qianchou instructed Lu Yanqing, then cupped his hands towards the crowd and said: "Everyone, please take a seat, I have something to do, I'll be right back." The few of them were a little absent-minded when they saw Lu Yanqing, and didn't notice that Yue Qianchou had left.
After Yue Qianchou left, he went straight to the top floor. He didn't see Wei Chunqiu at first, but later on, he felt that it was a little strange. This guy always liked to follow behind him, but now that half a day had passed, he still hadn't seen him. He had noticed it when he came up from below, but he didn't see Wei Chunqiu. Now, he suspected that Wei Chunqiu was with Yun Peng …
As he expected, when he reached the top floor, Wei Chunqiu and Yun Peng were standing side by side at the edge of the railing. Yue Qianchou was suspicious in his heart, why was this old fellow so patient today to accompany Yun Peng on guard?
As soon as he appeared, Wei Chunqiu and Yun Peng also turned to look. Without waiting for the smiling Yue Qianchou to speak, Wei Chunqiu was already waving at him: "Yue Qianchou, I was just looking for you."
Yue Qianchou was startled, and found that both of their faces were a little serious. After approaching the two of them, he asked suspiciously: "Looking for me? What's the matter? "
Wei Chunqiu was silent for a moment, then said solemnly: "After coming back, I have been discussing this matter with Yun Peng. Because this matter is of great importance, Yun Peng also thought that he should find you to clarify this matter. Although I don't know if you will answer honestly, I still have to ask you. "
Yue Qianchou's eyes flashed, and he vaguely guessed what was going on. Before, he didn't pay attention, but after doing that, he regretted it a little. But after thinking about it, there was nothing to regret. Hiding everything was not a solution, after all, he couldn't just take a beating and not fight back!
"What's the matter? You make it sound like it's something serious. "Yue Qianchou said with a puzzled expression.
"Do you still remember the Myriad Swords Burst that you used in the battle earlier?" Wei Chunqiu said word by word: "Right now, there are people who suspect that you are related to the Myriad Swords Demon Lord. You should also know that the Immortal World and the Netherworld cannot tolerate the remnants of the Myriad Swords Demon Lord."
"Suspect that I am related to the Myriad Swords Demon Lord?" Yue Qianchou pointed at his own nose, as if he heard the world's funniest joke, and said: "I actually hope that I can be related to the Myriad Swords Demon Lord, but it is a pity that it is impossible. The Myriad Swords Demon Lord has been dead for so many years, who is so bored to actually connect me with the Myriad Swords Demon Lord? "
"The Chamber of Commerce Alliance's Great Bright Wheel Controller." Wei Chunqiu's green brows knitted together, and her expression was abnormally serious: "In reality, you need to go and explain to him. We are only asking you to have an idea in our hearts, so that we can prepare early. We have no ill intentions towards you." Saying that, she waved her hand and pointed around: "Do you believe that the Chamber of Commerce Alliance has already arranged people around here? If it wasn't for the two of us, the Great Bright Wheel Controller would have already taken action. In short, if you don't give him a satisfactory answer, it is impossible for you to leave the Hallucination Immortal City. "
