The Strongest Devouring Upgrade

On the day when Guo Lanying made a formal decision, Yanxia Villa began to send out invitations.

When night fell the next day, there was already a large row of banquets in the winery of Haze Villa, with guests like clouds.

Almost all the people with names and surnames in Tongning City have gathered here.

Compared with the banquet in the City Lord’s Mansion a few days ago, the banquet at Haze Villa is larger, with higher-quality dishes, more guests, and different status.

For example, Wanrong Commercial Company only sent the second shopkeeper to the banquet before, but now it is the big shopkeeper in person.

For another example, although the two presidents of the Demon Slashing Club and the Demon Hunting Club had just quarreled a few days ago, they probably didn’t want to see each other at all, but after receiving the invitation from Yanxia Villa, they knew that the other party would be there. But in the end, it still arrived as scheduled, without excuses.

This is especially true for the rest of the small and medium-sized forces. The representatives who come are all leaders who can truly be in charge of their own affairs.

Even those forces that have already submitted to the City Lord's Mansion in the open and secretly are nothing more than the same.

In short, all the forces in Tongning City, faced with the invitation of Haze Villa, did not dare to neglect the slightest, and they all treated them with the most respect and prudence.

In the past, Haze Villa had something to hold a banquet, and those forces had almost this attitude, but under this situation, they would only be more solemn.

However, the most important thing is that Yanxia Villa did not invite anyone from the City Lord's Mansion.

Obviously, this is what Guo Lanying said to return to color, in the simplest and rude way, tooth for tooth for eye for eye.

Moreover, Guo Lanying's approach is not to deal directly with the City Lord's Mansion, and it will not leave any handle for Jin Daiping to use the question.

From the various aspects of the two banquets before and after, it is undoubtedly that Haze Villa is better, whether it is the momentum or the limelight, it completely overwhelms the previous banquet in the City Lord's Mansion.

This also made the entire Tongning City more deeply aware that the power and influence of Yanxia Villa is far above the City Lord's Mansion after all.

At the same time, people can also see that this is a kind of response from the Yanxia Villa to the City Lord's Mansion.

It can be understood that this is Yanxia Villa demonstrating its own strength, it can also be that Yanxia Villa is not afraid of a battle, and it can even be regarded as a provocation to the city lord mansion...

Anyway, Guo Lanying didn't say anything clearly, and let others think about everything.

...

Lu Ping'an and Chunyu Feiqiong did not attend the banquet, but stayed in a small room in the wine shop, drinking some wine, eating some side dishes, and chatting casually, leisurely.

In the middle of the night, when the banquet was over, Guo Lanying opened the door and entered the private room where the two of Lu Pingan were.

Lu Ping'an picked up the small flask and said, "Sister Ying, your wine is indeed very good, do you want to have some too?"

Guo Lanying sat down next to him and said with a smile: "Okay, then pour it for me."

Chunyu Feiqiong brought a cup, first put it over to fill Lu Ping'an, and then handed a full glass of wine to Guo Lanying, and said, "Sister Ying, I think you seem to be in a good mood."

Guo Lanying drank the wine in one cup, and said: "It's okay, mainly because tonight's banquet went smoothly, without any accidents, and the guests were very generous."

Lu Ping'an said, "That is to say, Sister Ying, your trick of'returning the body by the way of a person' is considered a great success?"

Guo Lanying said: "It should be, anyway, it didn't fail, nor did it embarrass Yanxia Villa."

Chunyu Feiqiong said: "What I want to know most now is whether Jin Daiping has been furious after learning about these things."

Lu Pingan smiled and said: "It is very likely that he did so many things a few days ago, and as a result, Sister Ying hosted a banquet and beat him back to his original shape, making all his efforts seem meaningless. , It’s all in vain, it’s only weird not to be **** off."

Guo Lanying said: "This is also thanks to people from other forces who are willing to come to join us. However, this is not my own credit, but more because of the credibility and prestige that Master has established since the establishment of Yanxia Villa for many years."

Lu Pingan said: "I guess part of the reason why Jin Daiping is so anxious is that he knows that Sister Xia is practicing in retreat, so he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to deal with Yanxia Villa."

Chunyu Feiqiong said: "Unfortunately, he still underestimated the abilities of the young boss, Sister Ying."

Guo Lanying said: "Although we won this time, this is after all an indirect competition. Before the real game, no one knows what he will do next, so we can't be happy too early. "

Lu Pingan said, "It seems that Sister Ying, you haven't been dizzy by the momentary victory, you are still very calm."

Guo Lanying took a deep breath and said, "This matter is about the life and death of Yanxia Villa. You can't be calm without being calm."

Chunyu Feiqiong said: "But even if it's just a temporary victory, it's worth celebrating. Sister Ying, you are probably exhausted these days, and you are under a lot of psychological pressure. We will accompany you for a drink tonight, so please relax ."

Lu Pingan nodded and said, "Yes, don't think about those things for now, we just wait for him to make a move."

Guo Lanying smiled and said, "Okay, then drink. Actually, I didn't drink much outside just now. I have to have a good time with you two."

After saying this, the three of them drank the wine with a smile.

In terms of drinking, Lu Ping'an and Chunyu Feiqiong together are not as good as Guo Lanying without using spiritual power to disperse the wine power.

Not only was she a huge drinker, she was also heroic when she drank, even the drunkards who stayed in the wine shop every day, compared to her by three points.

Of course, Guo Lanying did not fight with Lu Pingan, but said that they were free to drink as much as they wanted.

After one night, the three of them all drank very happily, and Guo Lanying really relaxed a lot.

Early the next morning, Guo Lanying received some news.

It is said that in the city lord's mansion last night, some slamming and swearing sounds sounded.

According to speculation, that should be caused by the city lord Jin Daiping's anger for some reason.

As for the specific reasons, Guo Lanying, Lu Pingan and others are not difficult to guess. Obviously, it is about the banquet at Yanxia Villa.

After Guo Lanying learned of this, he was happy for a while, and the joy of victory became more abundant.

However, at noon that day, Jin Daiping made another move.

But he just did a very simple thing, that is, sending someone to Guo Lanying to send an invitation to her to be a guest at the City Lord's Mansion tonight.

"Then Sister Ying, are you going?"

Lu Pingan looked at the invitation with a few words and the content was quite regular, and asked.

Guo Lanying said: "I'm still thinking about it, and I want to discuss it with you two."

Chunyu Feiqiong said, "If you really want to go, we can accompany you, so that you don't have to worry about safety."

Guo Lanying said: "Well, but I think he shouldn't dare to do anything to me for the time being. Maybe he just wants to talk to me. After all, didn't the emperor say that he should be courteous first and then soldiers?"

Lu Ping'an nodded and said, "I also think that's the case. It's just that he will talk about it in a specific manner, and what he wants to talk about is unknown."

Chunyu Feiqiong said: "Furthermore, he asked Sister Ying to go to the City Lord's Mansion, in fact, to show some status, right?"

Hearing this, Lu Ping’an realized this, and said, “Really, you go to the City Lord’s Mansion to see him, and he comes to Yanxia Villa to see you. The meaning of this is different. It’s not good to say it. , Others might think that Yanxia Villa has been softened to the city lord’s mansion."

Guo Lanying said calmly: "I know, but I don't care. In name, he is also the lord of a city. It is okay for me to give him a point, and don’t forget, I’m just the young boss, and my master didn’t show up. I went to see him, and it can’t be considered a soft service at Yanxia Villa, and it doesn’t mean that Yanxia Villa is inferior to City Lord’s Mansion."

Lu Pingan thought for a moment, and said, "It's not unreasonable to say this. If that's the case, what are you thinking about Sister Ying?"

Without answering, Guo Lanying asked, "Do you think I should go?"

Lu Pingan said: "You can go, but we must go with you, so that your safety can be guaranteed."

After thinking about it in silence for a while, Guo Lanying's eyes were fixed, and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's go there. Now that's the case, it's time to see Jin Daiping."

...

That night.

At the beginning of the Hua Deng, Guo Lanying was invited to the City Lord's Mansion.

She went in the carriage of Haze Villa, open and honest.

Anyway, the fact that she went to see Jin Daiping will soon be known throughout the city, and there is no need to deliberately act low-key.

In addition to the coachman, Guo Lanying only took two people.

Naturally, they were Lu Ping'an and Chunyu Feiqiong who were disguised as guards.

Although they still don't know the specific strength of Jin Daiping, and they don't know whether there is any strong among the entourage and guards he brought, but the two of Lu Pingan are confident that they can protect Guo Lanying's safety.

Soon, the carriage arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

Lu Pingan, like real guards, escorted Guo Lanying out of the car.

At the same time, Jin Daiping, who had been waiting in front of the mansion for a long time, greeted him on his own initiative.

Jin Daiping is a middle-aged man who looks more than 40 years old, but according to the information Guo Lanying got before, he has practiced at Jixia Academy for more than 40 years, which means that his actual age should be 50 or 60 years old. of.

He has a face with Chinese characters, an ordinary appearance, and a small beard on his chin. The whole person looks majestic and strong, but at this time, he put on a smiling face to greet Guo Lanying, but it gave people a feeling of smiling tiger.

Before he got out of the carriage, Lu Ping'an had already detected his bloodline with the Devouring System, and found that it was a high-rank Profound Rank.

Among practitioners in the world, this is not bad, but under normal circumstances, it is also difficult to cultivate to the level of the top powerhouse.

Therefore, Lu Pingan judged from this that his cultivation level should not be very high.
