Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years.

Chapter 282 The Shen family, which is at its peak, is secretly coveted!
"Long time no see, you two. Hope you are well!"

Just as Li Chengxing stood up and said goodbye to Li Chengfeng, a person slowly walked in from outside the hall door.

If it’s not Lu Xuan, who else could it be!
In the entire Baidao Mansion, only the things that Li Chengxing carries with him can be of interest to Lu Xuan.

It just so happened that two days ago, Li Chengxing had just finished talking to him here in Baidao Mansion.

"Lao Lu!"

"Lao Lu?"

After seeing Lu Xuan clearly outside the door, Li Chengxing and Li Chengfeng blurted out the word Lu Xuan almost at the same time.

However, Li Chengxing was deeply confused and shocked.

Without him.

Lu Xuan has changed a lot in just half a year.

In Li Chengxing's perception, Lu Xuan's aura was as if it didn't exist, as if he was incompatible with this world, like a person from another world.

What a horrible feeling!

If Li Chengxing hadn't seen Lu Xuan up close with his own eyes, he would have been suspicious.

Even if Lu Xuan was standing a few meters away from him, he couldn't sense it.

Could it be that Old Lu really took that step during his retreat this time?

impossible!
This is absolutely impossible!

How could it be possible to break through to the Dongxu realm in just half a year?

Back then, it took our second ancestor a full thirty years to break through to this level.

Lu Xuan...this.

It's unbelievable.

"Old Lu, why are you here?"

"Old Lu, you...what are you doing..." Li Chengxing's voice trembled a little, and his eyes were fixed on Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan smiled slightly, his expression indifferent. He walked slowly into the hall. Every step seemed to merge with the heaven and earth, giving people an invisible sense of oppression.

"I came here because I have something to trouble you, Old Li."

"Trouble me?"

Li Chengxing went from being shocked to being stunned. He really couldn't figure out that with Lu Xuan's ability, where else could he need his help?

Then, Li Chengxing frowned and quickly responded to Lu Xuan.

"Old Lu, just say it!"

"As long as I can do it, I will do it even if it means going through fire and water!"

"There's no need to be so exaggerated, Lao Li!"

Seeing Li Chengxing looking as if he was facing a formidable enemy, Lu Xuan was speechless.

It was normal for Li Chengxing to be nervous. Even a terrifying existence like Lu Xuan needed to trouble him. How could this matter be tolerated?

"My sister gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, a few days ago. I need to prepare some small gifts for my two newborn nephews."

"I just didn't prepare anything, so I thought of you, Old Li."

When Li Chengxing heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension on his face also dissipated a lot.

He couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "Old Lu, Old Lu, you really scared me to death!"

"I thought it was something so big that you would come to tell me in person."

"So that's what it's for!"

"This is a small matter. Just tell me, Old Lu, what do you need?"

"As long as I have it, you can take it!"

Li Chengxing looked very proud and almost promised Lu Xuan by patting his chest.

"Please lend me three top-grade spiritual objects first!"

"It won't be long before a child needs to polish his body."

"As their uncle, I naturally won't let my two nephews lose at the starting point."

"Also, my sister just gave birth to twins, and she needs to recuperate."

"A top-grade spiritual object should be enough."

.........

Li Chengxing and Li Chengfeng looked at Lu Xuan helplessly with dark lines on their faces.

This master is really extravagant!

A top-grade spiritual object from heaven and earth, an extremely precious thing.

If it is used on a warrior who is not at the internal energy realm or above, it would be simply a waste of natural resources.

For ordinary people, this top-grade spiritual object from heaven and earth is a great tonic without any side effects.

You should know that among the top-grade spiritual objects of heaven and earth, there is not only the pure and flawless original power of heaven and earth, but also a trace of mysterious perception of heaven and earth.

It can help warriors at the inner energy realm and above to deepen their understanding of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

However, no matter how much Li Chengxing complained, he would definitely not reject Lu Xuan.

With Lu Xuan's current status and position, let alone three top-grade spiritual objects of heaven and earth.

Even if it was three top-grade spiritual objects from heaven and earth, or three spiritual objects from the cave heaven, there were still a lot of forces rushing to present them to him.

Dengfeng County!
At this moment, the Shen family in the city is extremely lively. The mansion is decorated with lights and red silks inside and outside, and the atmosphere is filled with joy and happiness.

There was a constant stream of carriages and horses outside the door, and guests came to congratulate.

Even the officials from the county government took off their official uniforms, changed into casual clothes, and came to participate in this grand event.

After all, the Shen family is one of the best medical families in the city, and basically every important figure has come into contact with them.

Inside the Shen family mansion, hundreds of tables filled the square, each laden with a variety of red wedding items, symbolizing good fortune and prosperity. Although the setting was simple and the banquet hadn't officially begun, the scene was already grand enough.

Obviously, the Shen family attaches great importance to this happy event.

This is just a temporary symbolic banquet. When the full moon banquet comes, the Shen family will definitely hold a more grand celebration.

The servants of the Shen family were extremely busy, greeting the endless stream of guests.

There was constant laughter and joy in the mansion. The guests coming in from outside greeted each other and congratulated Shen Yunwei, the old man of the Shen family.

"Congratulations! The Shen family has a double celebration today!" a guest said with a smile and a bow.

Shen Yunwei's face was also flushed at this time, and he changed his usual serious and solemn look. He smiled and responded: "Thank you very much!"

"Today is just a small celebration. When the full moon banquet comes, please be sure to come and have another drink!"

Another guest smiled and said, "Of course. How could we miss the Shen family's happy event?"

Just as everyone was laughing and talking, there was suddenly a noise outside the door.

A middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes strode in, followed by several followers.

Seeing this, Shen Yunwei hurried forward to meet him.

"Oh, isn't this Lord Liu?"

"It is really an honor for our Shen family that you can come here today!" Master Shen said with a smile and bowed.

This Mr. Liu is none other than Liu Bifu, the newly appointed magistrate of Dengfeng County three months ago.

The former Dengfeng County Magistrate Zeng Fangao was promoted and transferred to the neighboring Jingtai Mansion to serve as the Tongpan.

Mr. Liu laughed heartily, patted Mr. Shen on the shoulder, and said, "Mr. Shen, you are too polite!"

"Today is the Shen family's big day. How can I not come and share in the joy?"

Mr. Shen quickly invited Lord Liu to sit in the seat of honor and personally poured tea and water for him.

After sitting down, Master Liu looked around and said with a smile, "Master Shen, this is quite a grand occasion today!"

"As expected of a famous family in the capital."

"Even if I am the head official of Dengfeng County, I am afraid I am still far inferior to you, Mr. Shen."

Shen Yunwei's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He was not a stupid person.

What do you mean, our Shen family is a famous and well-known family?
This Lord Liu even pointed out that he, a dignified official of Dengfeng County, was not as good as himself, a quack doctor.

It's worth it!

However, Shen Yunwei forced a smile, kept nodding in agreement, and acted extremely humble.

"Master Liu, what are you talking about?"

"Our Shen family can live a stable life in Dengfeng County thanks to your care, Lord Liu."

Before Liu Bifu could speak, the thin man who had been following him suddenly interrupted him.

The man was thin and had a very low presence, but at this moment his eyes were wide open with a sinister look.

"is it?"

He spoke in a shrill voice, his voice full of sarcastic sarcasm.

"Mr. Shen, your Shen family is very powerful!"

As the man spoke, he took a step forward and looked directly at Shen Yunwei.

"I heard that before our master came, your Shen family had been giving alms to the common people and helping the people in the city."

He drew out his tone, emphasizing the word "relief" as if he was deliberately emphasizing something, and the sneer on his face became more and more obvious.

"In this huge city, people only know you, Shen Yunwei, but not the county magistrate."

Just when Shen Yunwei was choked and didn't know how to speak.

Liu Bifu, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly became gloomy with his eyes wide open as he scolded the man harshly.

"How dare you! It's not your turn to speak here."

"You have no sense of propriety, get out of here!"

"Mr. Shen, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"I failed to discipline him properly. When I return, I will definitely punish him severely."

When Shen Yunwei heard these words, his heart suddenly tightened and a trace of cold sweat seeped out on his forehead.

He waved his hands quickly, a smile on his face, and said humbly, "Master Liu, you are too kind!"

"This official was just speaking his mind at the time. Don't take it seriously. What's wrong with that?"

"I hope Lord Liu will forgive me and not blame this official!"

Immediately, Shen Yunwei changed the subject.

"The Shen family is just doing some small things within their ability. How dare they compare themselves with the county government?"

"Lord Liu is the chief official of Dengfeng County, so the people naturally respect him."

"The Shen family is only able to live a stable life in this city because of Mr. Liu's influence."

Liu Bifu smiled slightly, looked at Shen Yunwei with a deep gaze, and said slowly: "Master Shen, there is no need to be so modest."

"I have long heard of the Shen family's reputation in the city."

"You are giving alms to the common people and helping them. This is a good thing, and I will naturally not stop you. But..."

He paused, his tone carrying a hint of meaning: "It's just that for some things, we still need to be careful about the degree."

"After all, the parent official of Dengfeng County is me, not the Shen family."

Shen Yunwei's heart trembled, and he felt a slight cold sweat on his back. He nodded hurriedly, his face full of respectful smiles.

"Master Liu is absolutely right!"

"The Shen family will never dare to overstep the boundaries. Everything will be under the command of Master Liu!"
