Fairy, help me cultivate.

Two Jiang family members stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Third Uncle."

The middle-aged man nodded and said "hmm", then looked at Chen Yao.

Chen Yao sensed that this person's cultivation level was no less than Nascent Soul, so he gave up the idea of ​​using his blood energy.

Who is this?

The middle-aged man asked the two young men questions, but his eyes never left Chen Yao.

Chen Yao smiled politely at him, but inwardly she was wondering if he had seen through something.

Or does he recognize me?

He observed the middle-aged man discreetly, confirming that he was not at the banquet where Jiang Bailian announced the prospective son-in-law.

“Third Uncle, this fellow Daoist is Yu Dingyi, a disciple of Chengfeng Pavilion. He was the one who just relieved the Pang family’s siege. Oh, fellow Daoist Yu, this is the Purple Rainbow Immortal Lord of my Jiang family, whose given name is Wuxiang.”

Chen Yao bowed to Jiang Wuxiang.

Jiang Wuxiang glanced at Chen Yao a few more times and smiled at him.

"It's getting late. Did you manage to get it? If you delay things, I can't protect you!"

The two young men nodded quickly: "We succeeded!"

“Yes,” Jiang Wuxiang nodded and said to Chen Yao, “Meeting is an opportunity. Today is a joyous occasion for the Jiang family. I hope you will do me the honor of attending.”

In order to find out more about the Mingyao, Chen Yao could only say "I'm bothering you."

Following the three of them, they arrived at the south bank of the Zhangjiang River. Chen Yao was worried that if Jiang Wuxiang asked him about Chengfeng Pavilion, he might not be able to answer or would give himself away by saying something irrelevant.

Fortunately, Jiang Wuxiang seemed preoccupied, perhaps too arrogant to talk to him, so Chen Yao gradually felt relieved.

As they approached the location Jiang Bailin had mentioned, Chen Yao calmed down, thinking that since he was already there, he might as well make the best of it. At worst, he could simply accept the identity of Jiang's son-in-law. In any case, with Jiang Bailin around, the Jiang family wouldn't directly turn against him.

After traveling several dozen miles south, in just a few breaths, Jiang Wuxiang was the first to descend from the clouds.

"Fellow Daoist, this way please."

Two members of the Jiang family extended their hands to lead the way.

Chen Yao nodded and followed them down into the valley below.

It was sunset, and as the three landed, they saw the sun rise over the western mountains. In the fading light, the valleys were shrouded in twilight, and a line of light separating the yin and yang moved right to their feet.

"Open the door!"

Jiang Wuxiang tucked his hands into his sleeves.

The two disciples performed a series of hand seals, creating a thick fog that rose and fell, changing the scene before Chen Yao's eyes.

The peaks and valleys still stretch endlessly, but the sense of serene beauty and elegance is palpable.

The sounds of sheng, xiao, drums and flutes drifted from the green mountains ahead. Although they were not close, they still made people feel that it was very lively and had a bit of the hustle and bustle of the mortal world.

"I heard that the Jiang family has a great joy, and I never imagined it would happen today."

Chen Yao had no choice but to respond.

Jiang Wuxiang smiled politely: "There's no time like the present, so everything is a matter of chance."

After saying that, he waved to the front, and soon another member of the Jiang family flew over.

"This is a distinguished guest. Please take him to the ceremony."

The newly arrived Jiang family members bowed respectfully and led Chen Yao toward the green hills.

After Chen Yao followed the Jiang family disciple and flew a short distance away, he released his divine sense and heard the conversation between Jiang Wuxiang and the two disciples.

Why did you bring him here?

Jiang Wuxiang's voice was very stern.

The two disciples said, "He should only be at the Foundation Establishment stage, but he killed those two late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators extremely cleanly. Although we didn't see what methods he used, it must have been a treasure."

"How many times have I told you? The Jiang family has now gone from the open to the shadows; they can no longer engage in such shady dealings!"

The two disciples paused for a moment before saying, "He asked us about the Mingyao..."

"hiss!"

After that, because they were too far apart, Chen Yao couldn't hear very clearly, but he remained cautious.

No wonder those two Jiang family members were overly enthusiastic.

So that's what she was thinking.

However, these are not things to worry about too much. The key is still the ray... Judging from Jiang Wuxiang's reaction, perhaps this thing, if it is a single object, is quite involved with the Jiang family!

Thinking about this, Chen Yao began to consider whether he should reveal his identity directly.

"Distinguished guest, the ceremony has begun. Please make yourselves at home."

When Chen Yao came to his senses, he found himself surrounded by a sea of ​​people, with banquets flowing like water. Many cultivators and fairies were enjoying themselves, and some were even singing and dancing. It was indeed a lively and extraordinary scene.

Let's wait and see!

That way, we can gather as much information as possible.

He amplified his divine sense as much as possible and walked into the crowd.

……

"Sixth Grandfather, since this person knows about the Ray, could it affect our grand plan?"

Jiang Wuxiang went to Jiang Mengyang's study, informed him of Chen Yao's situation, and then asked in a low voice.

"He said he was from Chengfeng Pavilion?"

Jiang Mengyang was observing Chen Yao, who was drinking alone, through a crystal lens.

"Yes."

Jiang Mengyang waved his hand, and Jiang Wuxiang bowed and withdrew.

"White Shark, what do you think?"

The young man who had been standing beside him smiled and said, "The entire Chengfeng Pavilion is busy tracking down the murderer who killed their disciple. How could they have time to come out and help others?"

Jiang Mengyang gave a faint "hmm": "According to you, how should we handle this?"

No need to do anything.

Jiang Mengyang glanced at him, her eyes smiling: "There's still no news about Bai Lian's future son-in-law..."

Jiang Baisha smiled meaningfully and suddenly said, "The Pang family is exhausted from our beating and wants to take this opportunity to make peace."

Jiang Mengyang tapped the table in front of him: "Leave them to fend for themselves."

"Oh, and also, Qingfeng is here; perhaps he's encountered some trouble."

Hearing Jiang Baisha say that, Jiang Mengyang laughed, looking quite pleased: "How big can Qingfeng's trouble be? You handle it!"

Jiang Baisha thought for a moment, then pushed open the door and went out.

"Let that newcomer, Yu Dingyi, go along."

Jiang Baisha was taken aback when Jiang Mengyang suddenly made such a request.

“Just tell him that after you do this, you should tell him about Mingyao,” Jiang Mengyang poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, and swirled the glass. “You have to keep an eye on things!”

Jiang Baisha smiled and replied "Yes," then went out.

Chen Yao listened to the conversations of the people around him with his divine sense, but he didn't hear any useful information. He just felt bored and was already regretting coming to the Jiang family.

Just as I was wondering how to get up and leave, a young man dressed in a coarse white robe strolled over with a smile in his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Yu Dingyi?"

Chen Yao raised an eyebrow: "Exactly."

Chapter 116 Jiang Baisha and Qingfeng

"Fellow Daoist, you look unfamiliar."

Jiang Baisha sat down next to Chen Yao and personally poured him a glass of wine.

Chen Yao glanced at him and took the wine glass: "I used to often search for spirit beasts for the sect in other places."

"I see. So, you're an operator specializing in beast taming?"

Jiang Baisha's attitude was approachable, showing no sign of being aggressive, and he seemed to be genuinely interested in Chen Yao.

At the time, Chen Yao was not a greenhorn; he knew that the more someone was like this, the more likely they were a seasoned veteran with a smile hiding a knife, so he became extra cautious.

"Judging from your choice of words, you don't sound like a cultivator, but rather like a bureaucrat in the secular world."

He changed the subject and spoke of other things.

Jiang Baisha didn't change the subject. Instead, he went along with what he said and chuckled, "Whether you cultivate immortality or live a mortal life, it's all about making a living. You rely on family and friends. There's no difference. Even before the collapse of the Heavenly Dao, it was the same."

Chen Yao smiled: "Fellow Daoist's words are quite insightful. May I ask your honorable name?"

"Jiang Baisha".

Chen Yao pondered for a moment and realized that he had never heard of this name before.

It seems that, just as he had heard before, the Jiang family has undergone a major reshuffle.

It's just unknown whether this blood transfusion will be a blessing or a curse for Jiang Bailian...

"Brother Yu, is there something troubling you?"

Jiang Baisha noticed Chen Yao's thoughtful expression and took the initiative to ask.

Speaking too frankly with someone you barely know is something people always deeply resent, so Chen Yao naturally gave him a surprised look.

Jiang Baisha poured Chen Yao another cup of wine, then poured one for himself, stood up and drank it all: "To be honest, I have a matter I would like to trouble you with, Fellow Daoist Yu. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, and I will not stand on ceremony."

Chen Yao didn't drink the glass of wine he was offered, but looked at him and asked, "Do you need my help?"

His current cultivation level is only Foundation Establishment. There are plenty of powerful figures in the arena, not to mention Golden Core cultivators, even those in the Nascent Soul stage. Therefore, Jiang Baisha's words cannot help but raise suspicions.

Jiang Baisha chuckled again and leaned close to Chen Yao's ear.

Chen Yao dodged backward as if on guard.
