The two entered the backyard and then came to the living room.
Meng Tong looked at Lu Yuan and asked, "Have you truly achieved the Transcendent Realm?"
Upon hearing the question, the latter slightly moved his hand, and a powerful aura emanated from it.
It was constantly turbulent in all directions.
Upon seeing this, Meng Tong smiled.
This is indeed the kind of energy that can only be achieved at the Transcendent Realm.
His face was full of joy because it was so fast. Lu Yuan had only been teleported here for a little over ten days and had already reached the Transcendent Realm. As far as he knew, in the past history of the Changqing Sect, there were very few people with the same talent.
Although Lu Yuan seems to specialize in archery, his skills are still quite impressive.
Meng Tong looked at him and said, "With your talent, Junior Brother, it will be very easy for you to enter the Changqing Sect. I have some things to do this morning. Otherwise, you can come with me. This afternoon, I will take you into the outer city and help you register for the sect."
Then you can live in the outer city, which is much better and safer than the shantytown.
Upon learning of Lu Yuan's breakthrough, Meng Tong displayed her girlish nature and said with a grin.
They seemed much more enthusiastic.
He even invited Lu Yuan to accompany him on his business trip.
"I'll follow Senior Sister's arrangements." Lu Yuan nodded.
Although curious about what Meng Tong was going to do, they didn't ask any further questions.
However, the other party explained, "Actually, it's nothing major. It's just that a family outside the city has a disciple who wants to enter the outer sect. My family has some connections with them, so we received an invitation."
My family couldn't get away, so they sent me. There should be quite a few people going today; it wouldn't hurt for you to go and see them.
Hearing Meng Tong's words, Lu Yuan nodded: "Thank you, Senior Sister."
"Don't be so polite. We'll be fellow disciples from now on. Who knows, you might become an inner disciple someday, and I'll be waiting for you to take care of me," Meng Tong said with a grin.
It was a joke.
But if Lu Yuan continues to maintain this pace, it does seem to be a possibility.
Then, the two of them drank tea in the living room for a while.
After Lu Yuan inquired about matters within Meng Tong's sect,
Seeing that it was getting late, he accompanied Meng Tong as they walked out of the mansion.
When he arrived at the front courtyard, many outer disciples cast curious glances at him, their expressions somewhat strange as they looked at Lu Yuan.
I don't know why the other person wasn't punished, but instead was allowed to go out with Meng Tong.
At this moment, Lu Yuan did not care about these things. He simply followed Meng out of the mansion, out of the shantytown, and headed towards a huge estate.
Although it's called a manor, it's actually a small town.
It's very large, and people are constantly coming and going.
The plaque above made Lu Yuan frown: "Zhang Residence".
These two words filled him with a sense of helplessness; he never expected that he would end up at the Zhang family's place after all this time.
The reason their family disciples were able to enter the sect this time was probably because of that talisman.
Thinking about this, I found it a little funny, but since I was already here and had promised Meng Tong, I decided to stay.
Just go in and take a look.
Upon entering the mansion, he saw many servants bustling about.
Meng Tong was clearly of high status, as members of the Zhang family came out to greet him and lead the way.
It looked very formal.
They were even quite polite to Lu Yuan.
Many people around greeted them.
They were all quite old, and they were greeting Grandpa Meng Tong as they spoke.
As they arranged the seating.
Meng Tong entered the table in the inner hall.
Lu Yuan was seated outside, but quite close to the main hall, which was clearly a great honor.
He glanced around and realized that those sitting nearby were all elders from the family, who had brought their disciples with them.
Before parting ways with him, Meng Tong told him to wait for her after he had eaten.
However, as soon as Lu Yuan sat down, he saw a familiar face at the next table.
He couldn't help but smile wryly, never expecting to run into the other person here.
It turned out to be Emperor Yong, Zhao Li.
At this moment, he was standing next to an old man, whispering in his ear.
Her gaze kept drifting towards Lu Yuan, clearly indicating that she had also noticed him.
His eyes held a deep resentment.
After all, putting everything else aside, the Emperor Yong's most beloved son died at Lu Yuan's hands.
Even if someone makes a big mistake, family ties still exist.
Especially now that he has been teleported here, the members of the Dayong royal family are still being hunted down in their original world.
This makes him feel extremely distressed whenever he thinks about it.
Some time ago, after continuous performance, he was finally formally incorporated into the Zhao family by the patriarch, and now the relationship has stabilized.
They were still thinking of taking revenge on Lu Yuan and his group.
I never expected that I would actually encounter it now.
However, he did not take action immediately. After exchanging a few words with the Zhao family patriarch, he left the table.
They started inquiring about Lu Yuan.
Zhao Li wasn't stupid. Those who could sit here today were nothing special within the Changqing Sect, but they were all influential figures in the shantytown and outside the city.
After all, the Zhang family wouldn't have invited them if they didn't have some connections.
And just after he sat down in front of the Zhao family patriarch.
The other party said in a deep voice, "Why are you asking about that young man? I've already sent someone to inquire. He was just teleported here a few days ago and is currently an outer disciple, a subordinate of a junior member of the Meng family. He's not an important person."
"Ancestor, didn't I say that back in the small world, our family once had an empire? It was destroyed by that young man on the other side, and my son died at his hands. Now, in the small world, the family members are still wanted by his subordinates."
They live in hiding every day.
Zhao Li said softly.
His eyes held a hint of hatred.
The Zhao family patriarch gestured for him to be quiet, then continued, "The banquet is in progress right now, so let's not talk about that for now. We have to give the Zhang family face. Go find him after the banquet. I want to see what this young man is all about."
After the Zhao family patriarch finished speaking, he raised his wine glass with a smile and began to toast with the people at the table.
Zhao Li served by his side. The reason he was brought along today was clearly because the Zhao family patriarch wanted him to recognize people.
At the same time, Zhang Heng, the patriarch of the Zhang family, who was sitting in the hall, also saw Lu Yuan, and his brows furrowed.
I didn't invite him, so why is he sitting in the mansion?
The seats were so close to the front, so he sent a message to his servants to inquire. He planned to give his men a good scolding after the banquet and ask them how they had handled things.
Then, with a big smile, he said to Meng Tong, "Miss Meng, your grandfather has been promoted to an inner disciple for some time now, and I haven't had time to visit him. I'm really sorry for being so impolite."
Since you're here today, I've prepared a special gift for you. Please take it with you when you leave, and also give him my regards.
Meng Tong's grandfather was originally an outer disciple, but he reached the True Spirit Realm some time ago, so he was promoted to an inner disciple.
As for why Zhang Heng didn't visit him, it wasn't because he didn't have time, but because he wasn't qualified.
The Changqing Sect is a place with a very strict hierarchy.
The outer disciples and inner disciples may seem to be separated by only a thin line, but they are actually as wide as a chasm.
Many outer disciples never progress beyond the outer sect in their entire lives, unable to take another step forward.
Not to mention someone like Zhang Heng, whose lifespan is almost up.
They were even unable to speak to the inner disciples.
His greatest wish now is that one of the family's disciples will become an outer disciple and take over the family after his death.
It won't fall down.
Now that someone in the family can finally enter through the outer door, he can say that one of his worries has been relieved.
Meng Tong nodded very politely: "Yes, I will definitely tell Grandpa."
Only after the words were spoken did Zhang Heng seem to breathe a sigh of relief.
If they could further improve their relationship with the Meng family patriarch, their family disciples would have a powerful backer within the sect.
Then, seemingly casually, he said, "I heard that Miss Meng came with a companion today. Why don't you invite her to sit with you?"
He had just found out why Lu Yuan had come, and after learning that Meng Tong had brought him, he carefully inquired about it.
His words were clearly a test of the relationship between Meng Tong and Lu Yuan.
"Ah, that won't be necessary. He works among the outer disciples and had other things to do today, so he just came along with me. He's not familiar with everyone." Meng Tong said with a smile, unsuspecting.
Since the Zhang family hadn't invited Lu Yuan, she felt awkward asking him to eat in the main hall.
Moreover, Meng Tong knew the character of these people. If they knew that Lu Yuan had just been teleported here and was about to become an outer disciple, Lu Yuan probably wouldn't be able to enjoy his meal.
I still have things to do this afternoon.
Actually, she also had some selfish motives; she didn't want others to know too much about Lu Yuan.
After all, the other party was a talent they had discovered themselves.
Zhang Heng felt reassured after that.
It turns out that Lu Yuan became an outer disciple, so it's not surprising that he works for Meng Tong.
He smiled and said, "I see. Then let's drink."
At this moment, Lu Yuan was unaware of so many things, but he understood in his heart that some things might not end well today.
Putting everything else aside, Zhao Li's gaze was becoming increasingly resentful and venomous.
However, Lu Yuan is no longer afraid, as he has already broken through to the Transcendent Realm.
Moreover, it has advanced to the level of Xuan Gong.
There is no need to fear those outer disciples anymore.
At worst, we'll just have a fight.
They're just old guys whose lifespans are about to run out.
Just then, they discovered that someone had walked over at some unknown time; it was none other than Mengke, the Emperor of the Western Rong.
Now he was dressed in a brocade robe, and reeked of alcohol.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan, she was overjoyed: "It really is His Highness Prince Qin! I thought he looked familiar. I'm so sorry we're only meeting today."
When Lu Yuan saw him, he smiled and said, "Come over for a drink another day."
Knowing that Monk had intended to help Xiao Gu and the others, Lu Yuan was quite kind to him.
After all, their relationship with Monk wasn't very good back then.
The fact that the other party took the initiative to care for everyone after arriving in the Desolate Ancient World is already quite commendable.
"Alright, I've been busy getting to know all sorts of people in the outer city lately thanks to the old man, so I really haven't had the time. I'll definitely come to see you in a couple of days." Monk raised his glass and clinked it against Lu Yuan's.
"It seems your family values you quite a bit."
"Hehe, I do have a bit of talent. The old man has been good to me," Monk said with a grin.
However, his expression immediately turned serious: "You still know Emperor Yong, Zhao Li, right? He's recently been favored by the Zhao family patriarch. I just heard that he's been asking about you, and he might be planning to take action against you."
I'll try to keep the old man from leaving for a while, but he might not actually help. That old guy is very opportunistic. But don't worry, if the Zhao family goes too far, I'll take action.
"The old man will have to move even if he doesn't want to."
Monk's words warmed Lu Yuan's heart.
After chatting for a while, the former left.
Just then, the banquet came to an end, and many people left.
Only a few people with ulterior motives remain where they are, unwilling to leave.
Also, the people at the main table were all pulling Meng Tong to toast them, which took up some time.
However, for those who didn't leave, everyone tacitly agreed that conflicts would always occur when each family held a banquet in the past.
As long as it's not the very beginning of the banquet, it's already considered giving face.
As for the end of the banquet, if someone couldn't hold back, the host wouldn't say anything.
At this moment, one of Zhao Li's attendants slowly approached Lu Yuan.
