"Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters, these three are my fellow disciples from Island 32, we've known each other for many years. Chengcheng's successful Foundation Establishnt is thanks to their substantial help."
Oh, so that's who they are.
After hearing Song Chengcheng's introduction, the other cultivators' interest in them waned.
"Chengcheng still cherishes old friendships, haha, but the path to immortality is long, and there will be many departures. I hope Chengcheng can see this clearly."
The person speaking was an elder sister who had developed her Foundation Establishnt, Song Chengcheng's senior sister, who was already over a hundred years old with a high level of cultivation.
Even if she disagreed with what was said, Song Chengcheng could only nod and listen attentively.
After all, the senior sister did make so valid points. Now that she had built her foundation and was seen as a promising disciple of the large sect, her future paths may significantly diverge from those of Chen Yi and the others.
Song Chengcheng felt bitter, but she knew that was the reality. Other than those of the sa level, nobody could accompany her till the end.
A flash of anger passed through Zhao Chengyu's eyes. He was proud and believed that even if it ant parting ways, he would be the one to survive till the end.
Liu Huo started to feel more uncomfortable,
Seeing this, Chen Yi pulled him to a corner: "Today, we're here just for the feast, enjoy the food and then leave, we don't need to pay attention to them."
Liu Huo's gaze fell on the exquisite spiritual food that he usually couldn't afford; his mood shifted,
Damn it, he probably wouldn't get a second chance to co here anyway, so there was no need to be afraid!
During the banquet, Song Chengcheng was busy serving guests. Her sect had many connections through her. So people she knew, others she did not,
But anybody who could co today to bring gifts and offer congratulations was not soone Song Chengcheng could offend; she had to treat them carefully.
Compared to these people from the sect, Chen Yi and the others who had known her for many years seed neglected as she spent less ti with them.
To those who were observant, it seed these three were here because Song Chengcheng felt obliged to invite them. They lacked the social grace to decline, hence their attendance at a place clearly above their standing.
"Oh, are these three reputed to be the genius scions of Zhao Family from Spirit Fish Island?"
At this mont, an elegant and dapper gentleman with a fan in his hand approached them.
"You are?" Zhao Chengyu dared not behave carelessly. He had to tread carefully at this large sect banquet so as not to have his family implicated by his actions.
"Well, let's say we have a shared history.
Once upon a ti, my little follower, Zhang Shigui, was a good friend of yours from the sa batch of cultivators. Once, during a gathering, you were attacked. My follower sacrificed his life while you all escaped unscathed. Because of this, I made a special trip to the Zhao Family, where your family head apologized to ,
I assu you three know about this?"
"You are the Third Young Master of the Tan Family, Tan Feng?"
Zhao Chengyu's face turned solemn. This Tan Feng, who was around his age, was already a Foundation Establishnt cultivator!
Tan Feng had once visited the Zhao Family and showed interest in his sister, Zhao Chengjing. The Zhao Family was pleased, thinking they had established a useful connection,
But it turned out the Tan Family was just fooling around,
Now, Tan Feng was a cultivator with Dual Spirit Roots at the Foundation Establishnt level. Being part of the Qinglong Island Sect, his future was great.
Standing in front of Tan Feng, Zhao Chengyu indeed felt sowhat insignificant.
"Yes, that's , Mr. Zhao. I must say that the choices you made back then, tsk tsk, you still haven't successfully established your foundation,
Coming here today with two little followers, it's not very wise,
Regardless, I won't say more,
Good luck!"
Tan Feng gave a friendly pat on Zhao Chengyu's shoulder, then prepared to leave.
Zhao Chengyu's face flushed with anger, but he dared not retaliate.
Before leaving, Tan Feng glanced at Chen Yi,
"Oh? Aren't you that, that Turtle Alchemist Chen Yi?
I've seen your portrait,
My family once inford that you had slept with a woman who was supposed to beco my concubine, and even sent a letter about it.
Rest assured, I won't hold it against you. Just live your life peacefully.
But one woman is enough, I hope you can control yourself. Especially when it cos to anyone else who catches my eye, you should be careful."
Tan Feng said in a warning tone. Although a smile was on his face, he tried to demonstrate his magnanimity by not holding any grudges.
After finishing, he didn't give Chen Yi a chance to reply and turned to leave.
Being a genius cultivator with Foundation Establishnt in a big sect, for him to take the initiative in speaking to a person who had only attained the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, was already a great honour,
Moreover, he demonstrated his magnanimity by not picking on Chen Yi,
Indeed, Tan Feng's behavior won high praises from the sect mbers. Several of them raised their cups in appreciation from afar,
Even Song Chengcheng, after understanding the situation, couldn't show displeasure towards Tan Feng. After all, he was forgiving her good friend.
Luckily, Song Chengcheng was more intuitive. She worriedly glanced at Chen Yi,
Then, after so thought, she temporarily left the banquet with Chen Yi and the others, so they could rest in the guest room.
She sighed inwardly, thinking that it might be better to have a private gathering with her old friends once she ventured out of her seclusion.
Besides Song Chengcheng, none of the sect disciples cared about what Chen Yi and his companions thought,
It was like how an elephant doesn't need to mind an ant's thoughts; they were just insignificant bugs that could be crushed with a snap of their fingers.
The trio all understood this very well,
Especially Chen Yi, he only laughed it off. You can lord over now, telling not to get close to won you are interested in,
In a hundred years, who knows whether the Tan Family will still be around.
