Chapter 178 King Gongfeng

The carriage started to move with a stutter, passing through the shattered area.

Zhang Tie sat outside and drove the carriage towards the city.

Soon Zhang Tie arrived at the gate of the North City. The city guards looked solemn and did not look away. They did not react at all when they saw Zhang Tie passing by.

After passing through the gate, the usually bustling street became empty, and the entire North City was filled with a solemn atmosphere. Only the creaking sound of Zhang Tie's carriage echoed throughout the street.

Zhang Tie quickened his pace and soon arrived at the Li family’s mansion.

What Zhang Tie didn't expect was that the Li family was very lively!
The entire Li family's home was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and red silk, which was rarely seen in normal times, was laid out to form a long red passage.

"Hurry up, hurry up, if the dish gets cold soon, it will be thrown out to feed the demons!" A short and fat man dressed as a cook stood in the middle of the yard, holding a colander in his hand, pointing here and there.

Zhang Tie walked forward and wanted to ask what had happened.

When the short fat man saw Zhang Tie, his originally normal voice suddenly rose a few pitches, "Stop right there!"

Zhang Tie looked around and realized that the short fat man was probably talking about him. He was confused and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Don't step on this red silk! It's made of natural silk. If you leave footprints, we will all die!"

The short fat man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhang Tie retract his legs. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Tie. He found that the man in front of him had a handsome face and an extraordinary temperament. He definitely did not look like a simple person.

"you are?"

Zhang Tie stepped over the red silk and said, "I just came back from outside. Why is it so lively today? Aren't we going to fight the barbarian demons outside?"

The short fat man replied, "The royal priest of Tianmo City is coming! It is said that he wants to do this for Master Li Xuan and give him a huge benefit!"

Zhang Tie raised his eyebrows. "What a huge benefit? How come I don't know about it?"

"You must be from a branch outside!" The short fat man looked very proud. He loved to brag to these branch children who had never seen the world!
"Now that the Barbarian-Demon War is about to begin, the head of the family has secured a leadership position for the clan. Although this position has not been announced, it is certain that he will be the clan leader!"

"So what does this have to do with Li Xuan?"

“Hey, you don’t know this!” As the leader, the patriarch can ask Tianmo City to provide resources to improve the talents of the younger generations!

The short fat man became more excited when talking about the talent. He approached Zhang Tie and said in a low voice, "It is said that this reward is very powerful. Even the fat pigs in my pen can be turned into magicians!"

"Then how can you be sure that it will be given to Li Xuan?"

The short fat man shook the large colander in his hand and said proudly, "You are an outsider here, right? Tell me, who is the most talented descendant of the Li family right now?"

Then, without waiting for Zhang Tie to speak, he continued,

"It must be the new Li Xuan! It can't be that Li Jie!"

The short fat man mentioned Li Jie's name with a look of disdain, "So Li Xuan will definitely rise to the top in one step!"

As he spoke, the short fat man put his arm around Zhang Tie's shoulders and said, "Let me tell you, if I were you, I would have clung to Li Xuan's thigh a long time ago. I, Big Colander, don't ask for anything else. As long as I can be arranged a position as a cook in the army instead of being a soldier, I will be satisfied!"

After saying this, Big Ladle pointed to the Li family lobby and whispered, "Today's banquet has consumed most of the Li family's resources. Just the various nourishing elixirs and the food alone cost thousands of magic stones!"

“Wait until those worshippers leave, then come find me, Big Colander. If you don’t mind the leftovers, I’ll make sure you’ll have enough of my magic medicine!” Zhang Tie nodded. This Big Colander is just like his name, he tells everything out loud, but he has a good heart!

This was also an unexpected surprise. He was most worried that this body of his could not be used for cultivation. If he could improve his talent, he would no longer have to worry about his lifespan.

. . .

Wang Gongsheng was wearing a red robe, with a feminine look on his face. He himself was a great cultivator at the Jindan stage, but he liked to be served by mortals the most.

He got off a luxurious carriage that was as wide as a street, and stepped on the body of Miaoling, a woman squatting on the ground, who was acting as a human footstool, with an indifferent look on his face.

But he stopped at the last step because the red silk at the door was still two steps away from him.

There were several mortal guards beside the carriage. When they saw Wang Gongfeng stop, they immediately shouted, "Where are the people from the Li family? Do they know the rules?"

When Dalueshao heard this, he thought to himself, "Oh no! How come Wang Gongsheng came so early?"
While asking someone to call for help, he ran out to welcome the king's offering.

When the guards saw someone coming, they immediately kicked him. Then someone took out a long wooden stick and was about to hit Big Colander hard in the face.

Zhang Tie frowned, took a step forward, and reached out to grab the wooden stick.

Wang Gongsheng glanced at Zhang Tie, narrowed his eyes, and chuckled disdainfully.

The guard who was caught with the stick spoke arrogantly, "Where did you come from? Do you know that Wang Gongsheng doesn't like to have dirt on his body? You didn't lay the red silk properly. According to the rules, someone has to pay with his life!"

"Still not letting go?"

As he spoke, a large group of people walked out of the inner courtyard, led by Li Yuan.

When Li Yuan saw Zhang Zhangtie, he was delighted at first, but then he saw the scene in front of him and his smile instantly disappeared. As a last resort, Li Yuan walked to the side of Wang Gongfeng and smiled, "What's wrong with Wang Gongfeng?"

Wang Gongsheng lowered his eyes. He always looked down on these vulgar people, especially those who didn't know the rules like Zhang Tie. When he met such people, he just felt that his eyes were dirty.

"Chief Li, a small suggestion, if the tribe members are not well educated, don't bring them out to meet others, thank you."

Then Wang Gongsheng took a step, jumped onto the silk, walked past the crowd and walked towards the lobby.

He didn't plan to argue with Zhang Tie. He came to the Li family this time to earn some benefits, so he could still tolerate these little things.

Everyone walked into the lobby, where everything had been hastily arranged.

However, Wang Gongsheng felt disgusted because many things were not made with enough care. The chairs were not aligned, the table was not as smooth as a mirror, and there were no young female cultivators around. What kind of welcoming banquet was this!

Wang Gongsheng plans to teach the Li family a little lesson!

He said coldly, "There are too many people in the room. We should clear them out!"

Wang Gongsheng half closed his eyes and gently turned his head towards Zhang Tie.

Li Yuan knew that Zhang Tie had offended Wang Gongfeng before, so he quickly stepped out to smooth things over, "This is the Li family's rare genius, Li Xuan! He didn't quite understand the rules here just now, I'll let him apologize to you!"

Li Yuan gave Zhang Tie a look at this and said secretly, "This man has a great opportunity, so just be patient for now!"
