Hearing the teacher's words, everyone was stunned!
Following that, those who were originally in low spirits suddenly had ecstasy on their faces. Even the City Lord was the same! Chu Youdao hurriedly shouted, "Where are they? Quickly go and welcome them!"
"They were just at the entrance of the academy. They should be halfway there by now!" The teacher quickly said.
"Let's go and welcome them together!" Chu Youdao immediately said to everyone.
Everyone nodded in unison and followed behind the City Lord. They rushed out of the meeting room and quickly moved forward.
Sure enough, not long after, everyone saw a group of people dressed in light blue robes walking over. Chu Youdao was extremely familiar with this attire. It was the unique sect attire of the Midnight Pavilion!
There were about ten people walking towards them. The two oldest were about thirty years old, close to forty. The others were even younger, most of them around thirty. Chu Youdao couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the age of these people. He had a bad premonition in his heart, but he still immediately went forward to welcome them.
Soon, the two sides met on the road. Chu Youdao took the initiative to greet them and said, "I am the City Lord of Meteor Trail City, Chu Youdao. I am also a disciple of the Midnight Pavilion. You are …"
On the other side, the leader sized up Chu Youdao before cupping his hands and saying, "I am Tong Sheng, an elder of the Mountain Fire Pavilion. I didn't expect the City Lord to also be a level three Heavenly Master. It seems like our information was wrong. If that's the case, since the City Lord is older than me, why don't I call you Senior Brother Chu! "
"So it's an elder of the Mountain Fire Pavilion. Sorry for the disrespect!" Chu Youdao smiled and said, "I didn't know you were coming. Please forgive me for not welcoming you!"
"Senior Brother Chu is too polite." Tong Sheng said, "The rebel army is attacking, so we naturally have to rush over as soon as possible. Why don't we find a place and Senior Brother can tell us what happened recently? "
"Alright, please!" Chu Youdao moved aside and said loudly.
Soon, everyone returned to the meeting room. However, this time, the meeting room couldn't accommodate so many people. Many people from Meteor Trail City were waiting outside. In the room, the people from Midnight Pavilion sat on one side of the long table while the people from Meteor Trail City sat on the other side.
After taking their seats, Chu Youdao quickly recounted what had happened in Meteor Trail City. The dean added on the side. At the same time, Chu Youdao also told them his speculation. The people from Midnight Pavilion listened quietly.
"That's about it." Chu Youdao frowned and said in a deep voice, "I'm worried that a Level 4 Heavenly Master might come at any time. I wonder what plans Junior Brother Tong has?"
Hearing Chu Youdao's words, Tong Sheng frowned slightly and said, "There are indeed two elders who have rushed over, but they went to Skylight City and Yueyu City respectively and did not come here. After all, the two Level 4 Heavenly Master s of the rebel army are both in these two cities. As long as the elders kill the two of them, the Starfire City will naturally be safe. "
Hearing Tong Sheng's words, Chu Youdao was more or less relieved. Indeed, if he could kill the two Level Four Heavenly Masters outside, that would be even better.
At this time, Tong Sheng suddenly thought of something. He turned his head to look at the person at the end of his group and said with a smile, "If I remember correctly, my Mountain Fire Pavilion's disciple, Wang Zhenggang, is also someone from Meteor Trail City, right?"
Before he finished speaking, the person at the end immediately stood up and cupped his hands towards the City Lord and Principal as he said, "Junior Wang Zhenggang greets the City Lord and Principal!"
Hearing Tong Sheng's words, Chu Youdao was stunned. As the City Lord, he naturally did not have the time to care about who went to the Midnight Pavilion every year. Instead, it was the Principal who smiled and nodded. "That's right, Wang Zhenggang is a student of our academy and our pride."
"He is indeed a good seedling with a lot of room for growth." Tong Sheng smiled and said, "Actually, this time, the team that returned did not include him. He was coming back to get married, and we only found out a few days later that something had happened in Meteor Trail City. We just sped up and caught up with him. "
"When he found out that Meteor Trail City was in trouble, he was extremely anxious and rushed over with us."
Hearing this, everyone was enlightened. Chu Youdao looked at Wang Zhenggang and said with satisfaction, "With this kind of heart, your future will definitely be limitless. I wonder which family's young mistress can make you love her so much. "
Hearing this, Wang Zhenggang smiled and cupped his hands. "She is also a student of the Starfire Academy, Kong Yan!"
Hearing this, Chu Youdao was stunned.
Hearing this, the Principal smiled and said to Chu Youdao, "Kong Yan is indeed a student of the academy and has recently broken through to become a Level 1 Heavenly Master."
Wang Zhenggang smiled and continued, "This time, Elder Tong came to Meteor Trail City to personally examine whether Kong Yan has the qualifications to enter the Midnight Pavilion!"
Hearing Wang Zhenggang's words, Chu Youdao was stunned again. With Wang Zhenggang's relationship, Tong Sheng might let Kong Yan, this student, go through the back door. In this way, wouldn't both husband and wife enter the same place?
Chu Youdao smiled and said to Wang Zhenggang, "Then shouldn't I congratulate you first?"
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. However, in the midst of everyone's laughter, there was one person whose face became colder and colder.
Just when everyone was laughing the loudest, a voice suddenly came from within.
"The engagement has been canceled."
When these words came out, everyone was stunned and the laughter came to an abrupt end. However, the voice was not heard clearly in the midst of the laughter, but everyone knew that it was Lu An who spoke.
Everyone looked at Lu An, only to see the Principal, who was closest to him, hurriedly ask, "Lu An, what did you say?"
Lu An's expression was indifferent as he swept his gaze across the room and calmly said, "I said, the engagement has been canceled. Both parties have agreed and I was the one who made the decision."
The moment these words came out, everyone's faces were filled with shock!
Immediately, the faces of the people from the Midnight Pavilion turned cold, including Tong Sheng! When the people from Meteor Trail City saw this, they were even more flustered. The Principal hurriedly asked Lu An, "Lu An, what's going on?!"
Lu An looked at the Principal and calmly said, "Kong Yan did not like Wang Zhenggang. It was her father who insisted on marrying his daughter off. Later on, I stepped in and forced the Kong family to cancel the engagement. At the same time, I took back the Wang family's management rights. "
"What?!" On the other side, when Wang Zhenggang heard that the Wang family's management rights had been taken back, he immediately shouted, "Lu An, how dare you!"
When the angry voice rang out, Lu An frowned slightly. He turned to look at Wang Zhenggang and calmly said, "A loser like you has the right to talk to me?"
"You!" Wang Zhenggang was speechless for a moment. He could only point at Lu An angrily, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, Tong Sheng opened his mouth. His expression was obviously much gloomier. He looked at Chu Youdao and asked, "Senior Chu, what's going on?"
"This … I don't know either!" Chu Youdao was also a little confused. He was caught off guard by the sudden situation. He did not expect Lu An to be involved in this matter.
Looking at Chu Youdao's appearance, Tong Sheng understood that this matter was indeed unrelated to him. He turned to look at Lu An and coldly said, "You're just a young man, yet you dare to be so arrogant. If you grow up in the future, what will happen?"
Lu An's eyes narrowed when he heard this. He turned to look at Tong Sheng and said in a deep voice, "Whether I'm arrogant or not, that's my business. As for this marriage, it's a matter of Meteor Trail City. Could it be that the Midnight Pavilion wants to interfere? "
Tong Sheng frowned when he heard this. The Midnight Pavilion had a rule. Unless there was an order, they could not interfere in local matters. This was also a rule that every country's cultivation holy land had. Otherwise, wouldn't the entire country become a cultivation holy land?
"If it was a normal matter, I naturally wouldn't interfere. But this matter concerns my disciple, so I have to interfere! "Tong Sheng immediately shouted," As the saying goes, it's better to destroy ten temples than to ruin a marriage! You want to interfere in the matter between the two of them, unforgivable!
Lu An frowned and asked, "So?"
"No matter what your status is in Meteor Trail City, immediately restore everything to its original state. Otherwise, you'll have to bear the consequences!" Tong Sheng shouted coldly. The threat in his words was not concealed at all!
When everyone heard this, their faces were filled with shock. Unfortunately, only Lu An's expression did not change when he heard his words. Instead, he laughed and asked, "What if I don't agree?"
Tong Sheng suddenly stretched out his hand and slammed it on the table with a bang. He shouted, "Then don't blame me for being impolite!"
"What is it?" The smile on Lu An's face became even wider as he said, "The dignified elder of the Midnight Pavilion wants to make a move against me?"
"You think you're worthy?" Tong Sheng sneered and said, "Me hurting you is considered bullying the weak. As long as my disciple makes a move, you can be defeated! "
"Who?" Lu An asked again.
Tong Sheng looked at Lu An's indifferent expression and frowned. He immediately shouted, "Wang Zhenggang, I'll give you another chance. Settle your own matters!"
Wang Zhenggang was stunned. He did not expect Tong Sheng to suddenly point at him. For a moment, he forgot to speak.
However, when Lu An heard this, his smile became even wider. He immediately opened his mouth and said, "Then why don't we make a bet? I'll fight with him now. If he wins, not only will I return things to normal, I'll also compensate him three thousand gold. How about it? "
Tong Sheng was stunned when he heard this. He suddenly felt that something was amiss. Why was this youth so fearless and happy to accept this battle?
At this moment, Tong Sheng realized that he could not see through this youth's strength. It was very strange!
However, if a dignified disciple of the Midnight Pavilion could not even defeat a youth of this age, then he was not worthy to stay in the Midnight Pavilion. Tong Sheng said loudly, "Alright!"
Then, Tong Sheng turned to look at Wang Zhenggang and said sternly, "Zhenggang, you have to perform well. Don't embarrass the Midnight Pavilion!"
Wang Zhenggang was stunned when he heard this. He then looked at the youth sitting calmly opposite him.
He frowned. He did not believe that he would lose to this kid after being in the Midnight Pavilion for more than a year!
Wang Zhenggang took a deep breath and said loudly, "Alright, I accept the bet!"
