Chapter 43: The Hongmen Banquet
"Old man, are you planning to let me become a dragon rider and lead three dragon beasts to conquer the world?"
Ye Feiyang thought silently in his heart, imagining himself standing on Zi Ling's body, with two dragon beasts behind him, sweeping across the world.
"It's too abstract."
Then Ye Feiyang shook his head and dismissed the idea.
Just when Ye Feiyang finished reading the introduction book of the Earth Flame Dragon, Zi Ling came to Ye Feiyang and swept his legs with her tail.
"You mean, he's your little brother now, so I can contract him without worry?"
Ye Feiyang pointed at the Di Yan Yalong who was standing in the corner like a good baby and said in surprise.
Zi Ling nodded, then looked at Ye Feiyang with eagerness in her eyes.
"Zi Ling is really amazing."
Seeing Zi Ling's eager gaze, Ye Feiyang reached out and touched Zi Ling's head, praising her.
Hearing this, Zi Ling narrowed her eyes slightly, and her tail twitched behind her.
Ye Feiyang put down his hand on Zi Ling's head and strode towards the Earth Flame Dragon.
"Ouch~"
The Earth Flame Dragon glanced at Zi Ling beside him and let out a gentle growl.
Ye Feiyang stretched out his hand and placed it on the head of the Earth Flame Dragon. Moon-white star tracks appeared one after another behind him, forming a moon-white star map.
A new mental connection appeared in Ye Feiyang's brain.
"It worked."
Ye Feiyang murmured, and the moon-white star map behind him disappeared, along with the Earth Flame Dragon in front of Ye Feiyang.
Ye Feiyang had just walked out of the study and looked at Jiang Shaoxu and Mu Ningxue lying in rocking chairs in the yard. He asked in confusion.
"A Xu, why didn't you send me a message when you came?"
Hearing this, Jiang Shaoxu rolled his eyes at Ye Feiyang and was speechless.
"I sent you several messages, but you didn't reply, so we came to find you, okay."
Ye Feiyang reached out and touched his pocket, it was empty.
Seeing this, Jiang Shaoxu reached into his pocket and took out a cell phone, chuckling.
"Don't look for it. You left your phone in your room. But seeing you like this, I feel relieved. I thought you deliberately didn't bring your phone with you because you didn't want people to know where you were and wanted to find a place to cry."
"Why do you feel that way?"
Hearing Jiang Shaoxu's words, Ye Feiyang was stunned for a moment, and asked subconsciously, then seemed to have figured something out, and said in an affirmative tone.
"So, you knew about the old man's departure a long time ago, right?"
Then, he stared at Jiang Shaoxu intently, as if trying to take in every micro-expression on her face.
"Yeah, I knew about this a long time ago."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feiyang showed a hint of surprise on his face. He thought Jiang Shaoxu would deny it or pretend to have just learned about it, but he never expected that Jiang Shaoxu would directly and generously admit it.
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
Ye Feiyang asked stupidly.
After saying this, Ye Feiyang regretted it, but it was too late to take back what had been said.
"Why should I tell you? Didn't you also not tell me about you and Ning Xue?"
Jiang Shaoxu glared at Ye Feiyang unhappily, raised his head and snorted.
Hearing Jiang Shaoxu say this, Ye Feiyang wanted to slap himself twice. This matter had already passed yesterday, but he didn't expect it to be brought up again.
"Ah Xu, that's not what I meant."
Ye Feiyang waved his hands repeatedly.
"Ah Xu, Ning Xue, it's noon now, let's go inside and talk."
Ye Feiyang looked up at the sun in the sky and changed the subject.
"No, Ning Xue and I just came to see you. Now that you seem to be in good condition, it's time for us to leave."
Jiang Shaoxu looked at Ye Feiyang with a hint of teasing in his eyes and said something with a double meaning.
"We dare not enter your house. Who knows if you mean to sit down or do it? Ning Xue and I are still young. We will meet many men in the future, so we can't give ourselves up so quickly."
After saying that, he pulled Mu Ningxue up slowly from the rocking chair.
"That's who I am, and I'm not irresponsible."
Hearing Jiang Shaoxu's words, Ye Feiyang instantly understood the hidden meaning, touched his nose, and muttered softly.
Mu Ningxue stared blankly at Jiang Shaoxu and Ye Feiyang, a trace of bewilderment on her face. It was obvious that she didn't understand the hidden meaning in their words.
"Really don't want to sit down?"
Ye Feiyang asked again.
"No."
Jiang Shaoxu said something and turned to leave.
But seeing the bewildered look on Mu Ningxue's face, he stopped and whispered a few words in her ear.
The next second, Mu Ningxue's face flushed slightly. She looked at Ye Feiyang with shame and anger, then turned and left.
Jiang Shaoxu turned around and gave Ye Feiyang a smug look before walking towards the door.
Looking at the backs of the two women, Ye Feiyang shook his head, turned around and walked towards his room.
He had already looked at the contracted beast, and it was time to take stock of the other things the old man had left for him.
"A complete set of magical tools, undead vessels, various types of potions... The old man has prepared enough, but why do I always feel like something is missing?"
Ye Feiyang looked at the bottles, jars and small devices scattered on the bed, murmured while touching his chin.
"Ding Dong!"
Just as Ye Feiyang was thinking, a message alert suddenly came from his mobile phone, waking him up.
"Come to the old friend's house!"
Ye Feiyang looked at the message sent by "Brother Jun" with a hint of confusion on his face.
"What do you want me to do at this time, Brother Jun?"
"Forget it, you'll find out when you get there."
Ye Feiyang put away the things on the bed and put on his shoes.
"Brother Jun, if you have anything to say, just come to my place or give me a call. Who else wants to come with such a rich feast?"
After Ye Feiyang arrived at the box, he saw that Jiang Shaojun was the only one sitting there, but the table was filled with delicacies from land and sea. A hint of confusion appeared on his face and he asked.
"If there's no one else, we can just eat this meal between the two of us."
Jiang Shaojun laughed.
"The Hongmen Banquet!?"
After hearing Jiang Shaojun's words and looking at the table full of delicacies that the two of them could not finish, Ye Feiyang suddenly had an idea in his head, and looked at Jiang Shaojun with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
"Brother Jun, if you have anything to talk to me about, just tell me directly."
Ye Feiyang stood at the door, resisting the urge to run away, looking at Jiang Shaojun with a forced smile on his face.
"Sit down and talk. I won't eat you."
Seeing Ye Feiyang's frightened look, Jiang Shaojun raised his eyebrows, pointed at the chair, and said lightly.
"good."
Hearing this, Ye Feiyang felt a little relieved and pulled out a chair to sit down.
"Brother Jun, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Ye Feiyang picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the roast duck slice. After swallowing it, he asked.
"No hurry, let's talk after we finish eating."
Jiang Shaojun took a bite of the food and said lightly.
Hearing this, Ye Feiyang nodded.
After eating and drinking, Ye Feiyang saw Jiang Shaojun put down his chopsticks and asked.
"Brother Jun, what do you want to talk to me about?"
