novelxo Chapter 3001
The news quickly spread throughout Cloud City. Countless citizens began to discuss this news.
However, at this moment, all the experts and rich people in Cloud City were in a dilemma. They held the invitations in their hands but did not know what to do.
After all, a few days ago, Fade just destroyed the Lu family and now ruled over Cloud City.
These rich and powerful people came to him to show their goodwill.
Now, Hexgon, the first Young Master of the Lu family, had returned. He also deliberately held a banquet at his family home and invited everyone.
Whoever agreed to Hexgon's invitation, they would be setting themself against Lundie.
However, if they did not agree to Hexgon's invitation, they would be offending him.
Both were not people to be trifled with. As such, the wealthy people in Cloud City were hesitant. They were not sure if they should attend this banquet.
At this moment, in the Xu family, Waldo held the invitation card in his hand. He was a little hesitant. He looked at his father and asked, "Dad, will our Xu family attend this banquet?" Lancom glanced at his son and said, "Of course." "But..." Waldo was still a bit worried.
Lancom waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. I am the Hall Master of the Spirit Cultivation Hall. Miss Moo will also be there, so what is there to worry about? Furthermore, I heard that the Seventh Elder of the Royal Sword Hall, Waller Lin, Febrian Mo from Windy Valley, and Venzo Zhou from the Northwest Wolf have already arrived in Cloud City. They have all agreed to Master Lu's invitation."
"No matter how bold that Lundie is, would he dare to be the enemy of so many masters?"
"Febrian and Venzo are here? I really didn't expect that!" Hearing these two names, Waldo was surprised.
Lancom nodded and said, "The elixir core of Geocenter Lava is precious. There are many people coveting it. These are just the ones being obvious about it, but those who came secretly are definitely worth mentioning. When the time comes, you have to be careful." "Yes, Dad." Waldo nodded in agreement.
Then, the Xu family publicly announced that they would attend the banquet after receiving Hexgon's invitation.
With the Xu family's initiative, many of the rich and powerful people in Cloud City also responded to Hexgon's invitation.
For quite some time, Cloud City's situation shifted dramatically. Those rich and powerful people, who had been fawning over Fade in the beginning, began to prepare gifts in anticipation of the Lu family's banquet.
Sabirin and Tedger reported the movements to Fade.
"Mr. Chen, those guys are all fence-sitters. Around 80% of the rich people and warriors in
Cloud City have accepted Hexgon's invitation. You..."
Fade looked calm and waved his hand, saying, "If they accept it, then let them. Don't take it to heart."
"But with Hexgon here, our prestige..." Sabirin had more to say.
At this moment, the voice of a servant came from outside, "Mr. Chen, the Lu family has sent an invitation saying that they would like to invite you to attend a dinner party at the home of the Lu family in Cloud City at seven o'clock tomorrow night." "What? The invitation card is here!"
"Hexgon has gone too far!"
"Throw it out. We won't go."
However, at this moment, Fade's eyes flickered. He thought of something and stopped them. "Wait, leave the invitation!"
"Mr. Chen, you..." Sabirin looked puzzled.
Fade picked up the invitation card and opened it. It was an ordinary invitation, nothing special.
He smiled gently, looked at the three confused people in the room, and stated, "Since they have invited us, I will go and have a look."
"But Mr. Chen, I'm worried that they don't have good intentions. Hexgon might have set up a trap, sir..." ledger hurriedly persuaded.
Tiguan nodded in agreement. "Mr. Chen, I heard that Hexgon is very sneaky and ruthless. We don't have to take this risk."
Fade shook his head and chuckled. "I know what you mean, but don't worry. I'm confident that they can't do anything to me."
"Moreover, even if we don't see each other tomorrow, we will still have to meet eventually. Why don't we attend the banquet and get to know our enemies?" After hearing Fade's words, the three of them stopped persuading him and looked at him sincerely.
"Mr. Chen, let us go with you."
"Although we are not strong enough, it's good to have more helpers."
Fade looked into their eyes and smiled. He nodded and said, "Then let's go together."
The next evening, the lights were lit. These days, the lonely old house of the Lu family was ablaze with lights and it was crowded with people.
The lavishly dressed guests entered the old estate of the Lu family manor one after another with exquisite gifts.
In the courtyard, many people were already sitting around on chairs. Everyone was toasting and chatting, and the atmosphere looked very lively.
Among them, the most lively, or striking, was the main table in the center of the Lu's family manor.
The one sitting at this table was a well-known figure.
Hexgon was in the middle of the
group. Needless to say, he was the eldest son of the Lu family, a student at the Capital Martial Arts Academy and the head of the investigation team appointed by the government.
Next to him was the deputy team leader of the investigation team, Wesley.
On the other side were the family members of the Xu family in Cloud City, including Lancom and Ava from the Spirit Cultivation Hall.
Across the group of people in the
Spirit Cultivation Hall was a man in a long robe. He looked to be in his 50s or 60s and had a gloomy face. He held a long gray sword in his hand and exuded a gloomy aura
He was the Seventh Elder of the Royal Sword Hall, Waller Lin. There was also the master of the Thousands Phantom Sword, Jayrold.
Beside them, there were two other strangers.
One of them was in his thirties, dressed in a green robe and holding a folding fan. He was handsome and graceful, attracting the attention of many ladies.
He was Febrian Mo of Wind Valley, a famous hidden force in the vicinity.
Next to him was a brawny man dressed in
shorts, who had a fierce expression on his face. The three long scars on his face were so frightening that no one dared to look at him.
This man was Venzo Zhou, the Northwest Wolf. He used to be a villain. After his spiritual energy was awakened, his strength advanced rapidly and he became a master. Having occupied the mountains, he had built up a group of subordinates.
The other masters from Cloud City and the surrounding areas all sat in their designated seats.
Looking at the time, it was less than five minutes away from seven o'clock.
Hexgon glanced at Wesley and asked softly, "Didn't he come?"
Wesley said, "He hasn't arrived yet. Perhaps that kid is afraid and doesn't dare to come!"
Hexgon raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, "He doesn't dare to come! He can hide today, but he can't hide forever. Did he really think he can be safe and sound after destroying my Lu family?"
