Linfen City is very lively, and the stalls on both sides are shouting constantly. The last time Yun Duo experienced such a scene was a year ago.
As soon as Cheng Yuan stepped into Linfen City, several waves of people left in a hurry. Without thinking, he knew that they were all spies sent by the major families in order to get the news about the Cheng family as soon as possible.
One of the men saw that Cheng Yuan came out of the Qingyuan Mountains alive, with an expression of disbelief on his face. He quickly took out the jade slip and didn't know who to contact. After several paging calls without getting a response, his expression became panicked and he looked at He hurried away into the city.
The man hurriedly came to a courtyard, told the gatekeeper a few words, and then stayed aside to wait for the summons.
After a while, the young man led him into the inner garden and brought him to a room door before saying, "Don't keep me waiting, young master. Come in quickly!"
The man inexplicably broke out in a cold sweat, but gritted his teeth and pushed the door open.
There was a very handsome man sitting in the middle of the study, with a stern look on his face. The man took one look and quickly lowered his head to reduce his presence.
"You said Cheng Yuan returned to Linfen City alive from the Qingyuan Mountains!"
The man above spoke slowly and could not tell the emotion, but the man's head shrank even lower.
"Back to Young Master, it's absolutely true. I saw with my own eyes that there was a little girl beside him, about eleven or twelve years old."
The man told everything he saw at the city gate.
"Can you contact Zhang San and others?"
The man above spoke again.
"I couldn't get in touch. I suspected that they might have been exposed, so I was killed by Cheng Yuan."
The man expressed his guess.
"Trash, they are all a bunch of rubbish. Six golden elixir-level monks can't kill Cheng Yuan, an early-stage golden elixir monk. What's the use of my young master raising you!"
The man above angrily threw everything on the table in front of him down.
Things were scattered all over the floor, and the man didn't dare to breathe.
Of course, Cheng Yuan didn't know about the episode that happened in the courtyard.
He was taking Yun Duo to the Cheng Mansion, which was worthy of being the largest aristocratic family in Linfen City. The mansion occupied the most prosperous street in the city, and there were countless servants coming and going in the mansion.
When walking along the Cheng Mansion, no matter whether the servants or guards saw Cheng Yuan, they all stopped their movements and saluted him respectfully.
This shows the status of the young master Cheng Yuan in the hearts of these people.
Cheng Yuan sent jade slips to his family long before he left the Qingyuan Mountains, briefly explained what happened in the mountains, and informed them of Yun Duo's identity.
When they arrived, there was not only Cheng Zhi, the head of the Cheng family, but also Cheng Yuan's grandfather Cheng Qi in the hall.
"Meet Grandpa, Father!"
"Meet the old Patriarch Cheng, Patriarch Cheng!"
Cheng Yuan was the first to greet him, followed closely by Yun Duo.
"Haha... You are so polite, little friend Yun. If you hadn't saved me, I'm afraid this brat would have been found in the Qingyuan Mountains. If my little friend needs anything from my Cheng family in the future, I, the Cheng family, will never refuse."
Cheng Qi walked down from the main seat with a hearty smile and came to Yun Duo's side.
"Master Cheng, please be polite. Since the Cheng family is protected by my Lingyun Sect, I just did what a disciple of the Lingyun Sect should do. I don't deserve the Cheng family's great gift."
If you were just being polite, now Patriarch Cheng really wants to make friends with Yun Duo.
The girl in front of me is only eleven or twelve years old, but she has a certain amount of progress and retreat. At such a young age, she is already in the late stage of foundation building. She thought that she would be able to successfully form elixirs before she was twenty years old. Then she recalled that there was a rumor in the Lieyan Sect a year ago that Hua Yuan The Venerable's young disciple was brought back to the cave by Elder Lu Jian to teach him the weapon refining techniques personally. At a young age, he was already a third-grade weapon refining master.
Being friends with such a young genius will also be beneficial to the future development of the Cheng family.
Although the jade slip sent by Cheng Yuan did not explicitly mention that Yun Duo was the disciple of Venerable Hua Yuan, it only mentioned that Yun Duo was a direct disciple of the Lingyun Sect.
Several major families affiliated with Lingyun Sect all know that Venerable Hua Yuan took in a closed disciple more than four years ago. She is a little girl about five or six years old. As long as she sees her with a lively mind, she can guess her identity.
After chatting with Yun Duo for a while, Cheng Qi turned his attention to Cheng Yuan again. The jade slip he sent only said that he was attacked by Yun Duo in the mountains and was rescued by Yun Duo, without giving any other details.
"Yuan'er, what happened to you in the mountains? Do you know who sent the person who attacked you?"
When the grandfather of the family asked, Cheng Yuan naturally did not dare to hide anything, so he told the whole story in detail.
"This is unreasonable. I will give an explanation to the employment alliance for this matter. If it has nothing to do with them, that's it. If the employment alliance is involved in this matter, our Cheng family and the employment alliance will not give up."
After hearing what Cheng Yuan said, Cheng Qi angrily slapped his hand on the tea table, and his spiritual power instantly shattered the table into pieces.
Cheng Yuan didn't answer the call. His family was involved in the sneak attack. He just had to wait for the result.
"Fortunately for my grandfather, there were no dangers in this business. My grandson also found Jiuqu Lingshen and met fellow Taoist Yun, which is also a blessing in disguise."
Cheng Yuan handed the jade box containing the spiritual plant to his father.
Cheng Zhi, who had been silent since they entered the hall, became excited when he heard Cheng Yuan say that he had found the Jiuqu Spirit Ginseng. He reached out to take the jade box and laughed heartily.
"Good, good, good!"
It goes without saying that you are in a good mood three times in a row.
"Father, please stay with Yuan'er and chat with fellow Taoist Yun, and your son will leave first."
Cheng Zhi couldn't hide the excitement on his face. He finally gathered the spiritual plants to refine the Jiuqu Lingshen Pill. Now he could not wait to rush to the alchemy room and let the alchemy elder refine the pill for him.
Naturally, Yun Duo would not have the vision to insist on dragging Cheng Zhi to accompany him.
"The Master of the Cheng family is naturally busy with many things to do. It's me who has disturbed you. Please don't worry about it and just focus on your affairs."
Yun Duo had already stated that Cheng Qi could no longer force Cheng Zhi to stay. He could also understand his eager mood at this time and waved his hand to let him go.
They chatted for a while, nothing more than going out for training. Yun Duo wanted to say goodbye several times, but Cheng Qi cleverly bypassed him.
In the end, she arranged for the servant to prepare a guest room for her with a wave of her hand. She also had half of the credit for bringing back Jiuqu Lingshen, so why not stay and witness Cheng Zhidu's Nascent Soul Tribulation together.
Cheng Qi warmly invited Yun Duo and he couldn't say no, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
She still couldn't react until she returned to the guest room. Didn't she leave after agreeing to send Cheng Yuan safely to Linfen City? Why was she deceived into the Cheng Mansion? Didn't she agree to come and sit down before leaving? Well, why did she live in Cheng Mansion again?
It seems that Cheng Yuan's hospitality is hereditary.
Now that it's come, let's make peace with it. Yun Duo sighed leisurely. Naturally, she couldn't go back on what she promised.
