As he was speaking, a middle-aged man wearing gold velvet and luxurious clothes slowly walked to the center stage, followed by two attendants holding jade trays.

Placed on the jade plate were two pale yellow spiritual herbs. The medicinal fragrance was very strong and attracted the attention of many guests.

Xuan Jingchen also opened his eyes slightly.

Those are thousand-year-old spiritual grass, or two of them!

The middle-aged man bowed slightly towards Qin Zheng, the old man of the Qin family who was sitting in the main seat.

"Chen Ping of Baicaotang would like to present two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, Huanglongzhi, to congratulate Mr. Qin on his birthday."

"Well, good! Shopkeeper Chen has taken the trouble!"

Qin Zheng laughed twice and nodded with satisfaction.

Others were amazed when they saw this.

Unexpectedly, the first person to give a congratulatory gift was the Millennium Spiritual Grass. It was really not easy!

Chen Ping smiled slightly and stepped back.

"Baicaotang is worthy of being the number one herb shop in Saint Yuan City. It sells two thousand-year-old herbs." Li Luoxuan praised.

When Xuan Yuchen heard this, a glint flashed in his eyes.

Although these two thousand-year-old Huanglongzhi plants are said to have thousand-year-old quality, they have lost a lot of their medicinal power due to poor preservation. At most, they only have a potency of nine hundred years.

Moreover, Huang Longzhi is not a rare spiritual herb with limited effects, so Xuan Jingchen is not very interested in it.

Then several people sent gifts one after another. Whether it was spiritual herbs, yuan stones, spiritual weapons, elixirs, or other treasures, each one was enough to drive many cultivators present crazy.

"Shengyuan Auction House congratulates the ancestor of the Qin family on his birthday and presents the mid-level spiritual treasure, the Pure Yang Sword."

"Ling Jianmen congratulates the ancestor of the Qin family on his birthday and presents a thousand-year sword pearl."

"The Hanyu Sect congratulates the ancestor of the Qin family on his birthday and presents a thousand-year cold jade bed."

"The Zhang family of Tianwu Kingdom will present 40,000 yuan stones and 300 spiritual herbs."

……

As one force after another presented treasures, the atmosphere became more and more lively.

Until a man with a handsome face and dressed in blue came forward, and everyone looked at him.

"Mu Tianchen, a disciple from the outer courtyard of Tianwu Academy, is here to pay homage to the ancestor of the Qin family on his birthday. I offer the sword Qi bamboo slip of the sword master He Fangqing in the hope that the ancestor of the Qin family will accept it."

Mu Tianchen's voice was confident and magnetic, and many people present expressed surprise after hearing his words.

"What! Sword Master He Fangqing's Sword Qi Bamboo Slips?!"

"Sword Master He Fangqing is the number one sword master in Yuanzhou. The sword energy bamboo slips he left behind are of immeasurable value. How can his inheritance be comparable to ordinary spiritual skills?"

"If you can learn one and a half moves from this sword Qi bamboo slip, it would be a great blessing."

"But Sword Master He Fangqing mysteriously disappeared eighty years ago. How did Mu Tianchen get the Sword Qi Bamboo Slips from that Master Sword Master?"

……

The congratulatory gift sent by Mu Tianchen caused a sensation in the whole audience, and many guests talked about it.

Although the Sword Master's Sword Qi Bamboo Slips were precious, Qin Zheng, who was sitting on the main seat, did not show much excitement.

He looked at the black bamboo slips in Mu Tianchen's hand with a bit of doubt on his face.

It is true that He Fangqing is the number one sword master in Yuanzhou, but Qin Zheng had the honor to meet this sword master many years ago. According to the character of the sword master, he should not leave items such as sword Qi bamboo slips.

But Qin Zheng could definitely feel the Sword Master's sword energy from this bamboo slip.

"strangeness?"

Thinking of this, Qin Zheng's turbid old eyes narrowed.

"Since it is the sword master's bamboo slip, I will accept it. Thank you very much for the gift from this kid from Tianwu Academy."

After Qin Zheng finished speaking, he motioned to the servant next to him to accept the congratulatory gift from Mu Tianchen.

Seeing the ancestor of the Qin family accepting the gift he had prepared, Mu Tianchen couldn't help but feel a bit of pride on his face.

He believed that among the guests present, only the gifts he gave were the most valuable. When he passed by Xuan Jingchen and Li Luoxuan's seats, he showed an air of pride.

Li Luoxuan, who was eating the spiritual fruit, felt unhappy when this guy saw him like this.

"Tch, it's just a sword Qi bamboo slip. Is it necessary to show off like that?" Li Luoxuan said secretly in his heart.

But Xuan Jingchen beside him sneered directly in front of everyone, and said without any scruples: "You are quite capable of giving away an item that will shorten your life span."

Suddenly, the entire banquet fell silent.

A hint of displeasure flashed across Qin Shijie's serious expression, and he turned to Qin Huaiyan beside him and said, "Yan'er, your senior brother is a little ignorant of the rules and politeness, and you actually said such words as ruining your life at my ancestor's birthday banquet."

"Dad, I think Xuanjing...Senior Brother Xuan must have his reasons for saying this..."

The more Qin Huaiyan excused Xuan Jingchen, the angrier Qin Shijie became.

In his opinion, his daughter's behavior was like turning her arms outward!

Li Luoxuan was stunned, and the half-eaten spiritual fruit in his hand fell to the table.

Looking at the focused gazes around him, Li Luoxuan couldn't help turning his head and whispered to Xuan Jingchen: "Um...Miss Xuanyu, just say this in your heart, don't say it directly."

But Xuan Jingchen didn't take it seriously, waved his hand and said: "I'm right, that bamboo slip is not the inheritance of the Sword Master, but an evil object that absorbs life essence. Whoever holds this bamboo slip will be Just wait for bad luck.”

When Mu Tianchen heard Xuan Jingchen's disdainful voice, his face suddenly darkened.

He was just about to yell at Xuan Jingchen, but suddenly he thought that this was at the Qin family's ancestor's birthday banquet, so as not to harm his image.

So Mu Tianchen suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Xuan Jingchen with gloomy eyes.

"Haha, this brother is short-sighted and can be forgiven for not knowing anything about Lord Sword Master."

"But I would like to advise you, this is a banquet for the ancestors of the Qin family, so don't talk nonsense."

Although Mu Tianchen's voice was low, it was clearly heard by the guests present.

"What? It's a longevity-destroying item, you really treat it like a treasure."

"Or maybe you already knew that this bamboo slip was an ominous thing and wanted to deliberately harm the ancestor of the Qin family."

Xuan Jingchen gently shook the wine glass in his hand, with a playful smile on his lips.

"Ridiculous! You are slandering me!"

Mu Tianchen's expression suddenly changed, and his voice suddenly became louder.

Many people present also frowned, wondering why Xuan Jingchen said these words.

Qin Huaiyan clenched his fists nervously and looked at Xuan Jingchen worriedly.

Xuan Jingchen, please stop talking about it, okay? I beg you, stop playing around with your identity as a disciple of Tianwu Academy, it is still fake.

If that guy Mu Tianchen gets caught, it will be a disaster for both of us.

"Whether it is slander or not, you will know if you try it."

Xuan Jingchen said, raising his hand and pointing to the scroll of bamboo slips on the tray of the person behind Mu Tianchen.

A faint silvery element of energy overflowed from Xuan Jingchen's fingertips, and the scroll of bamboo slips naturally flew into her palm.
