"Father, I've sent the invitation. I'm sure Store Manager Mo has agreed." Zhang Tiannan immediately backed down when he saw Zhang Yun who was about to teach him a lesson.
Seeing that Zhang Tiannan was telling the truth, Zhang Yun returned to normal. If Store Manager Mo had agreed, then he should be coming.
"Maybe he was delayed by something." Zhang Tiannan turned around and said.
Soon after, the Zhang father and son returned to their seats. However, Zhang Tiannan did not have the main seat. In this kind of occasion, he could only sit with Ye Qing, Fatty Tang and the others.
The banquet was held in the Zhang family's guest hall. There was a large round table in the main seat. The host and guests were seated in an orderly manner. Of course, only the patriarchs of the four great families and the Martial Emperor Realm cultivators could be seated. Kuang Shi was among them.
There were eighteen people at the round table. The five great powers had all come. The Tang, Li, and Ye families had six people including the Martial Emperor Realm cultivators. There was also Kuang Shi and Ye Yun. Including Old Man Zhang and Zhang Yun, there were ten people. The Pavilion Master of the Bountiful Treasures Pavilion, Huang Hu, was also present. There were even more people from the Lin family. The Martial Honorable Old Man Lin was also present.
There were also fourteen people. There were two seats at the head. One was for Old Man Zhang and the other was empty. Even Zhang Yun sat beside Old Man Zhang, followed by Old Man Tang. It went without saying who the empty seat was left for.
There were also a few round tables below the main seat. The other powers of Sentry Town were also present. There were three tables at the end that were left for the juniors of the various families.
However, this was also very particular. Zhang Tiannan, Fatty Tang and the others naturally sat at one table. There were also different groups below them. However, the three tables were not full.
Zhang Tiannan considerately left a seat for Luo Ruo. Although it was not as good as Mo Tiankong's treatment, the Zhang family did not have any intention of neglecting it.
.....
Mo Tiankong was still walking leisurely while Luo Ruo had an anxious look on her face. She looked at the sky and saw that it was almost evening. She was afraid that the Zhang family had been waiting for a long time.
"Store Manager Mo, it's almost evening." He had no choice but to remind him again.
"Oh, oh." Mo Tiankong asked the System for the exact time. It was 4: 56 pm, almost 5 pm. He had to hurry up, or he would be late.
Seeing that there was still some distance before they reached the Zhang family, Mo Tiankong activated his Essence Qi and flew up with Luo Ruo. As for Auspicious, it flew by itself.
After two minutes, Mo Tiankong landed a hundred meters away from the entrance of the Zhang family's house. Auspicious fell back into Luo Ruo's arms.
"Luo Ruo, are you going to give me this gift when I enter the room or at the banquet?" Mo Tiankong asked Luo Ruo without entering the room.
The guards at the door and Zhang Yi, who was in charge of welcoming guests, didn't report it. Although they saw it, they didn't come over.
"Normally, it's given when I enter the room." Luo Ruo hesitated. Normally, it should be given when I enter the room. Luo Ruo didn't know how the Zhang family came here. After all, she had only been there a few times before, and it was at the banquet of Martial King Wuzong.
After hearing Luo Ruo's words, Mo Tiankong took out a bottle of Martial Skill Pills and walked up to Zhang Yi. Yes, the person in charge of welcoming guests was Zhang Yi.
Because today was the old man's promotion banquet, Zhang Yi, a Martial King, was sent to welcome the guests. In addition, his status wasn't low, so he was familiar with people from other families.
"Mr. Mo, please," Zhang Yi said politely. Then, he called out to the man inside.
Because of his relationship with Zhang Tianan, Zhang Yi was also very embarrassed. However, they managed to resolve it in the end. Their relationship wasn't very good, but they had interacted a few times. Later on, the Zhang family sent Zhang Yi to the grocery store to buy things.
Moreover, today was a big day for the Zhang family. Mo Tiankong also politely returned the greeting.
Seeing this, Luo Ruo also took out a jade box and handed it to Zhang Yi. Then, she followed Mo Tiankong inside.
"Store Manager Mo, it's an honor to be able to attend this old man's banquet. Please take a seat." Zhang Yi also called out. Therefore, Zhang Zhengfeng also stood up to welcome Mo Tiankong.
"You're too kind. Old Man Zhang, I wish you a prosperous martial path." Mo Tiankong was also very polite and was a little surprised.
Looking at the courtyard full of people, Mo Tiankong felt that he was a little late.
Mo Tiankong also took his seat. Naturally, he sat next to Old Master Zhang, and Old Master Lin was on the other side. Mo Tiankong just wanted to freeload a meal between the two warriors of the Martial Venerable Realm. Even an Earthling knew what this seat of honor meant. The Zhang family was really polite to him.
Luo Ruo also sat down. However, at Zhang Tiannan's table, Auspicious didn't have a separate seat. She was so small that Luo Ruo had to carry her.
Lin Si 'er also sat down next to Zhang Tiannan. Seeing that Auspicious was ready to fight, she didn't get angry this time.
After Mo Tiankong sat down, Zhang Yun picked up his wine glass and stood up. "Thank you all for coming to Old Man Zhang's promotion banquet."
Immediately, everyone in the seats below stood up.
"May Old Man Zhang's martial arts flourish."
"May Old Man Zhang's martial arts flourish."
Mo Tiankong only heard this sentence the most. Then, something about Grandpa, it was definitely Zhang Tiannan who called him that. There were also many other titles.
"Zhengfeng, we haven't seen each other for many years. I didn't expect that you would also enter the Honorable Realm. This toast is to you." Old Man Lin said with a little emotion.
"Old Man Zhang, you're lucky to have advanced one step ahead of us. Come, let's toast to you." The old man from the Yeh family said. He was the one Mo Tiankong saw during the sea beast riot. He was a very valiant old man who had left a deep impression on him.
In the main seat, Mo Tiankong was also dumbfounded. Wasn't this just a joint toast? However, this wasn't the main point. Therefore, Mo Tiankong also raised his wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
The wine for today's banquet was the Thousand Island Lake Beer. There were still boxes of it in the courtyard. The Zhang family had also spent a lot of money this time.
Last time, they had bought more than a thousand bottles at half price. Now that they were able to use it, they were really generous. They could drink the Thousand Island Lake Beer like wine.
However, looking at the courtyard, there were only about a hundred people in total. Most of them were Martial Kings, so they couldn't drink too much. After all, the effect wasn't that good. Of course, Zhang Tiannan and the other juniors were more relaxed. They drank bottle by bottle.
This was good stuff. 500 Spirit Stones per bottle. How could they drink so recklessly normally? Now, they had the opportunity.
However, they still restrained themselves. After all, they still needed time to digest it.
Forget about the Thousand Island Lake Beer, there was also Martial King level demon beast meat on the main seat. There were also some rare exotic fruits. How could this be considered a meal? This was eating Spirit Stones.
Although there were gifts, the Zhang family also attached great importance to this banquet. Therefore, they had to make a full set. This arrangement was quite luxurious.
"Store Manager Mo is still young and promising." Mo Tiankong was eating when the topic shifted to him.
"Cough, cough. Compared to the seniors, I'm still a bit lacking." Mo Tiankong quickly swallowed a piece of meat and then said modestly.
These words were unanimously approved by everyone present. Many people began to flatter Mo Tiankong.
Mo Tiankong was mentally tired. He could only say a few perfunctory words. Everyone was smart. Seeing that Mo Tiankong wasn't interested in talking, they all changed the topic.
As for why the Zhang family didn't invite the expert behind the general store, that was because they didn't dare. They were afraid that it would backfire. Mo Tiankong coming was also out of the Zhang family's expectations. They had originally invited him with the intention of giving it a try. They had even sent Zhang Tiannan. If Zhang Yun personally went to invite him, it would be awkward if he was rejected.
Therefore, after thinking about it, they had sent Zhang Tiannan.
As for why they didn't dare to invite him, there were many reasons. The Zhang family was the first family to come into contact with the general store. The general store's background had repeatedly reached a new height. Therefore, after considering the attitude of the imperial family, the Zhang family also knew that the expert was at least a Martial Emperor. If the Zhang family didn't handle this expert well, they would be in danger of being destroyed.
When the transportation formation came out, these families all understood. The first time Yan Xiu came here, it was the Yeh family who showed him the way. For a Martial Emperor to not snatch something like the transportation formation, this already explained many things.
Just like Zhang Zhengfeng's breakthrough. If he invited a Martial Emperor, did you think the Martial Emperor would come? There was no need to think about it. The answer was very clear.
The background of the general store might be even higher than a Martial Emperor. Previously, when there was a limit, Lady Qian could only buy one item. Lady Qian went out many times and naturally attracted the attention of several families. The key was that she didn't care about spending Spirit Stones.
After some investigation, there were some clues. There were many people from the four families in the Duobao Bank. Therefore, some information couldn't be hidden.
The general store's background was at least a Martial Emperor. It might even be a Wu Sheng. This was hard to say. Therefore, the Zhang family still had some self-awareness. Even if they wanted to invite him, they had to see if they were worthy.
In short, the focus of the conversation wasn't Mo Tiankong. Of course, in the end, it was best to sit at the same table as Zhang Tiannan. He took some time to look at the Auspicious. Luo Ruo and Lin Si 'er took turns to feed him. It was best if he was full. He didn't plan to go back and cook.
The sky was also dark. This banquet had been going on for about three hours. If the main seat didn't move, the rest didn't dare to move. Therefore, it was dragged on.
After a few rounds of dishes had been served, Mo Tiankong also said his goodbyes. He really wanted to eat the 50,000 spirit stones back, but that was impossible. It was getting late, so it was better to leave early.
When he walked to Zhang Tiannan's table and was about to ask Luo Ruo to leave, he realized that the Auspicious was still in Lin Si 'er's arms. This guy had no integrity. Lin Si' er kept feeding it. Therefore, it naturally went to Lin Si 'er's arms.
"Auspicious, if you don't catch up, you can sleep on the streets tonight." After saying that, Mo Tiankong pulled Luo Ruo and flew towards the store.
Auspicious, who was lying down and about to fall asleep, suddenly got up and followed Mo Tiankong.
"King … level beast." Lin Si 'er didn't even bother to be angry. She stuck out her tongue and said.
"It should be right." Zhang Tiannan said.
Wuzong level beasts could only fly at a low altitude. However, Auspicious was flying so high that it couldn't be seen. It was definitely a king level beast.
