CHAPTER 308: CHAPTER 183: GUESTS FROM ALL DIRECTIONS_2

"At the time, this place will have an entirely different flavor!"

The middle-aged scholar continued his introduction.

"Good! I am very satisfied with the environment here!"

Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi exchanged opinions and then nodded in approval.

"It’s almost time! By the way, you should take this Profound Turtle Flesh and prepare it!"

Li Yunjing thought for a moment, then put the two large legs of his Profound Turtle into a storage bag and handed it to the shopkeeper.

"Oh? A Tier Two Profound Turtle? Good stuff!"

The middle-aged shopkeeper, also a knowledgeable person, immediately nodded.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

At this moment, Li Yunjing’s Communication Talisman buzzed again.

He opened it to see that Lv Ruoxi and Yang Wenzheng had both arrived.

"Lv Ruoxi and Yang Wenzheng, the two protagonists, are here! Let’s go out to welcome them!"

After reading the message, Li Yunjing raised his head and smiled at Yu Yunyi and Fu Chao.

"Hahaha! They’ve both advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm, so we must go out to greet them!"

Fu Chao laughed heartily, though he felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Everyone around him was progressing, while he was still standing in place. How could Young Master Fu maintain his pride this way?

For the proud Young Master Fu, this was unacceptable.

Seclusion!

This idea once again arose in Fu Chao’s mind.

"Shopkeeper, we’ll have to trouble you with the matters here. We’re going out to greet our two friends!"

Li Yunjing politely spoke to the middle-aged scholar.

"No problem! No problem! You esteemed guests are free to attend to your matters. We at East Splendor Tower will arrange everything in Moonlight Hall properly, so there’s nothing for you to worry about!"

The middle-aged scholar smiled.

Before long, Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, and Fu Chao returned the way they came, leaving Moonlight Hall, descending to the third floor, and exiting East Splendor Tower. Right at the entrance, they saw Lv Ruoxi and Yang Wenzheng arriving together.

"You all..."

The words were interrupted by Li Yunjing holding Yu Yunyi’s small hand.

Lv Ruoxi and Yang Wenzheng stared wide-eyed at the two, seemingly unable to believe what they were seeing.

Had Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi gotten together?

These two had kept so quiet, and now they were so open about it?

Seeing their surprised expressions, Fu Chao smiled. It seemed others were as shocked by this result as he was!

"Hahaha! Yunyi and I have already become Dao companions! Next time, remember to bring a grand gift for us!"

Li Yunjing cheerfully greeted Lv Ruoxi and Yang Wenzheng.

Other diners at the entrance of East Splendor Tower noticed the group of young people and showed surprise.

"That seems to be Li Yunjing?"

"That woman looks like a True Disciple from Rising Sun Peak?"

"Have they gotten together?"

"The other three appear to be Fu Chao, Lv Ruoxi, and Yang Wenzheng!"

"Wow... They are all True Disciples!"

"Yes, I heard Yang Wenzheng’s True Disciple assessment was almost complete. No surprise if he gets promoted soon!"

"Li Yunjing is impressive! He’s surrounded by True Disciples!"

...

Witnessing Li Yunjing and these remarkable talents, even the customers able to dine at East Splendor Tower couldn’t help but express admiration.

After all, East Splendor Tower was a top-tier restaurant. Even the most common Inner Sect Disciple it hosted was somewhat prestigious and had some spare money.

The average Inner Sect Disciple might not dine at East Splendor Tower even once a year.

These commenting onlookers were no nobodies.

At this moment, under the gaze of the crowd, Yu Yunyi didn’t react as strongly as before to Li Yunjing’s words.

She had grown somewhat accustomed to Li Yunjing’s remarks, only her face blushed a little.

As for Li Yunjing, he didn’t care at all. Let those who wanted to watch, watch!

He was happy, wishing the whole world knew about his relationship with Yu Yunyi.

"Sister Yunyi, I didn’t expect you’d actually win over Li Yunjing!"

Lv Ruoxi sighed softly, feeling somewhat regretful, not expecting her chosen target to be snatched by Yu Yunyi before she could make her move.

"How hateful!"

The look in Lv Ruoxi’s eyes as she glanced at Li Yunjing turned somewhat mournful.

This look made Li Yunjing shiver. What kind of relationship do we have?

Why are you looking at me like that?

It seemed as if we had a secret affair!

You and I are clean, so you better not cause trouble!

"Humph!"

Meanwhile, Yu Yunyi clung to Li Yunjing’s arm, snorted coldly twice, and glared at Lv Ruoxi in a show of defiance, her small face tilted up.

"Hehe! Congratulations, Brother Li and Sister Yun!"

Yang Wenzheng stepped forward, chuckling.

"Haha! Today is a day of double happiness! Yunyi and I becoming Dao companions, and you and Sister Lv advancing to Foundation Establishment, these are all joyous events!"

Li Yunjing laughed heartily.

"Alright! Let’s get prepared! It seems like there are quite a few guests today. Are your arrangements all set?"

After chatting for a while, Lv Ruoxi seemed to recover from the shock and asked.

"Yes! I’ve prepared twenty tables, which can accommodate 160 people. If that’s not enough, we can add four more tables. If that’s still insufficient, we can add a few more on the central lawn."

Li Yunjing smiled, "Anyway, no matter what, we can make the arrangements work!"

"Alright! That’s about it! Some of our acquaintances are outside the sect, and others are in seclusion. We should have enough seats."

Lv Ruoxi thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

Yang Wenzheng also nodded and said, "That sounds about right! I only have a dozen or so friends!"
