《Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain!》Chapter 93: The Banquet Began
Advertisement
"It's okay. There won't be any He family in Thunder City anymore," Qin Yu continued to comfort her.
"Where's Xiaoxi?" Qin Mingzhu suddenly asked, as if she suddenly remembered something.
"Second sister just came back four hours ago. Father told her to take a shower and change clothes to attend the banquet tonight." Qin Yu took some fish food with his hand and threw it into the lotus pond, "Since Second Sister has already come back, you don't have to worry anymore. I think He Zhao has most likely been smashed to pieces and died suddenly."
"I hope so..." Qin Mingzhu sighed. Her clear eyes revealed a trace of sadness and fear. "Qin Yu, you should also go and change your clothes. Tonight's banquet is very important to father. All of us have to attend."
"Indeed... even Second Sister has rushed back. Then I'll go? Sister!" Qin Yu suddenly stuffed the fish food into Qin Mingzhu's hand and then skipped away.
"This child..." Qin Mingzhu looked at the fish food scattered all over the floor and shook her head.
After a while, the entire hall of the Qin family was filled with people. The guests who came had already filled up ten tables. Qin Haisheng was also happily toasting them.
It was strange that Qin Haisheng was not drunk at all. He just followed his wives and continued to chat with the surrounding guests.
"All of you are the big boss of Thunder City. Today, you have graced my humble abode with your presence! Your presence has graced my humble abode!" Qin Haisheng raised his wine cup and stood in the middle of the hall. He looked around and raised the wine cup in his hand.
"Hahaha, that's nothing."
"In the future, we still need to trouble Master Qin to take care of us!"

"Exactly, we still need Master Qin to bring us to make a fortune."
"Isn't that right! Isn't that right!"
"That's right!"
Voices rose one after another in the banquet.
"Then, let's eat and drink well first? We'll discuss the future together?"
"Good, good..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the servants of the Qin family had already begun serving dishes with light steps.
"Is there still one person missing? Why is the seat still empty?" At this moment, Qin Haisheng suddenly asked the servant beside him in a low voice.
"Master... There's still one person missing... Sect Master Jiang of the Deity Sect," the servant said in a low voice.
"Why hasn't he appeared yet..."
Just as Qin Haisheng was about to give up waiting, a familiar figure stepped into the door. That figure was dressed in a long white robe, and his long black hair was draped over his back. Qin Haisheng could not have mistaken him. He was the youngest sect master in the history of Deity Sect, Jiang Yun! Jiang Yun had an extremely handsome face, and his eyes were filled with a fierce look. His nose was sharp, and the corners of his mouth always revealed a pleasant smile. He had a righteous aura all over his body, but he seemed to be a little young and frivolous.
"It's been a long time, Sect Master Jiang."
"I'm sorry. I've made you wait for a long time, Master Qin. I was delayed because I had to deal with some troublesome matters with my disciples on the way," Jiang Yun explained. Actually, he was willing to come as he had heard that the Qin family was extremely well-loved by the commoners in Thunder City, so he naturally wanted to see if it was true. It seemed that so many people were willing to attend and Qin Haisheng was an extremely important existence among the common people. Unfortunately, the He family's business was large, and Qin Haisheng had no place to stand out.

"Sect Master Jiang!"
"Sect Master Jiang!"
Everyone present greeted Jiang Yun when they saw him. Everyone in Thunder City knew that it was the three disciples under Jiang Yun of the Deity Sect who had exterminated the entire He family. They had vented a lot of resentment.
Everyone knew that He Cangming's cultivation was extremely powerful, but they had never thought that he would be exterminated by Jiang Yun's three disciples. From this, one could imagine just how unfathomable the strength of this young sect master was.
Qin Haisheng hurriedly invited Jiang Yun to sit beside him.
"Then, let's quickly have a good meal!"
"Alright! Alright!"
"Why aren't we seeing the three disciples of yours today?" Qin Haisheng quickly poured a cup of wine for Jiang Yun and asked.
"The three disciples are busy cultivating, so they can't come together to attend the banquet."
"It doesn't matter, let me toast you." Qin Haisheng laughed when he heard this and then raised his wine cup.
At this moment, an old man on the table suddenly asked, "I hear that Sect Master Jiang took in a female disciple named Yu Sisi, who used to be the daughter of the Yu family?"
"That is true. She is very intelligent."Jiang Yun was unwilling to mention Yu Sisi to them, so he just casually brushed her off. However, it was strange that he could speak so elegantly today. Usually, when he spoke to his disciples, he would speak all sorts of nonsense.
"That daughter of Yu family is also a pitiful girl. Back then, the He family did everything they could to harm the Yu family." Another gentleman seemed to have recalled something as he spoke with a trembling voice.
"That's right..."
At this point, everyone could not help but curse the He family. It seemed that these people had long disliked the He family. Back then, they only dared to be angry but did not dare to say anything.
"But I seem to have heard someone mention something before..."
Everyone pricked up their ears.
After sitting for a long time, even Jiang Yun started to gossip. Thinking about it, it made sense. A lot of interesting news often came from the mouths of the common people. Many things would turn into rumors.
"What..."
"That young master of the He family, He Zhao, do you know him?"
"I heard that... he wasn't just adopted. In fact... he came from the Yu family. He was the one who attracted the Yu family and sold everyone in the Yu family."
When Jiang Yun heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
What he said was indeed the truth. He Zhao, this b*stard, was actually someone who would bully and destroy any family that had offended him. Jiang Yun really looked down on this kind of person. Therefore, from the moment he met He Zhao, Jiang Yun had never looked up to him. Yu Sisi's parents' death was also related to He Zhao.
If the He family had done all kinds of bad things, then He Zhao was worse than a beast to Jiang Yun. A beast who would do anything for power.
"I also heard that He Zhao didn't die."
Qin Mingzhu, who was sitting at the same table, turned pale.
