Chapter 56 Demon Cult Elder

White Jade Restaurant.

It is the largest restaurant in Fuzhou City.

Located in the south of Fuzhou City, it has three floors.

Each floor is 13 feet high, and the total height is more than 15 feet. Standing on the third floor, you can overlook the entire Fuzhou city.

The interior is luxuriously decorated, and the tables and chairs are made of top-quality pear wood.

On the second and third floors, there are screens between each table, providing excellent privacy.

Officials and wealthy businessmen in Fuzhou City usually love to come to Baiyu Restaurant for banquets.

Today, Mr. Lin from the Lin family of Fuwei Escort Agency has booked the entire second floor of the Baiyu Restaurant.

Many officials and wealthy businessmen who had connections with the Fuwei Escort Agency, after receiving the invitation from Mr. Lin, heard that it was the young master of the Fuwei Escort Agency, Lin Pingzhi, who wanted to become a disciple of Yu Canghai, the leader of the Qingcheng Sect, so they all came to the banquet.

"President Cui is here!"

"Li Tongzhi is here too, long time no see!"

"I've heard a lot about you..."

"Master Lin has invited me to Young Master Lin's apprenticeship banquet, so how can I not come!"

Before long, all the empty seats on the second floor of the White Jade Restaurant were filled.

In ancient times, there was a strict procedure for the teacher-apprenticeship banquet.

Generally, one must first pay homage to the ancestor, second perform the ceremony of paying homage to the disciple, and third receive instructions from the master.

In front of everyone, the disciple must kowtow three times to the master sitting in front of him. The master will announce the rules of the sect and encourage the disciple to be a clean person and study hard.

This whole process will take at least an hour.

The protagonists of today's apprenticeship banquet are the master and disciple Yu Canghai and Lin Pingzhi.

Chu Yuan and Qu Feiyan are just extras.

Chu Yuan didn't like to mobilize such a large number of troops and engage in such formalism in public.

Because he felt that this whole process was quite tiring.

So he came on stage early, and in no time, had Qu Feiyan worship the tablet of his master Chang Qingzi, kowtow to him three times, and then quickly accepted Qu Feiyan as his disciple, and then went to the banquet.

Wouldn’t it be nice to sit at the same table with Dongfang Sheng and drink together?

Why do such boring things?

However, Lin Pingzhi and his disciple Yu Canghai each changed into a new set of clothes, performed their greetings in front of the altar, and then chatted endlessly.

It seems like the disciples respect their teachers, and the master loves his disciples and has high expectations for them.

The guests were all immersed in this harmonious picture.

Lin Zhennan, wearing a brocade robe, moved around the banquet, greeting relatives and friends who came to the banquet and making everyone feel at home.

Chu Yuan, Dongfang Sheng, Master Jin Guang, and Taoist Master Song Wen sat at the same table. Apprentice Qu Feiyan sat next to Chu Yuan because he was too young.

Chu Yuan wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible, but he didn't know that he couldn't keep a low profile at all.

At the apprenticeship banquet, many people secretly looked at him with awe.

The news that he defeated the Five Mountains Sword Sects with just his sword had spread throughout Fuzhou City.

Many people in Fuzhou City knew that the Fuwei Escort Agency was framed by a Taoist priest named Chu Yuan from the Qingcheng Sect.

He is kind-hearted and chivalrous, and offers to help.

With one man and one sword, he defeated all the masters of the Five Mountains and repelled the Five Mountains sword sects.

Although the Five Mountains Sword Sect is far away from Fuzhou City, it is quite famous.

Especially in Fuzhou City, with the existence of the Fuwei Escort Agency, the people in the city know a little about the underworld.

He also knew about the Five Mountains Sword Sect and its powerful strength in the martial arts world.

However, such a powerful Five Mountains Sword Sect was defeated by this young Taoist priest.

He can be said to be a young talent who emerged out of nowhere.

"I came here uninvited, please forgive me."

At this moment, a fifty-year-old man wearing gray cloth clothes, with gray hair tied into a messy bun with a wooden hairpin, carrying a Jiaoweiqin on his back and a wine gourd tied around his waist, looked very free and easy. He walked up the stairs from the first floor. Standing at the stairs, he glanced around the second floor, and after seeing Qu Feiyan's figure, he walked straight to the seat where Chu Yuan and the others were sitting.

"Fei Yan, follow grandpa."

The old man walked up to Qu Feiyan, staring at her who was sitting next to Chu Yuan, and was about to pull her up from her seat.

"grandfather……"

Qu Feiyan was somewhat reluctant and uncooperative.

So when the old man pulled, he didn't pull Qu Feiyan up from her seat, but dragged the drum stool, making a somewhat harsh sound.

"Qu Yang, sit down and have a drink!"

At this moment, a calm voice came from the side, which made the old man look over. As a result, when he saw it, he was immediately stunned.

"teach……"

Qu Yang blurted out, "My name is Dongfang Sheng. If you want to drink, sit down. If you don't want to drink, leave by yourself. Don't disturb my mood."

Dongfang Sheng interrupted Qu Yang.

Qu Yang immediately understood that this was the leader reminding him not to reveal his identity.

He stood there in a daze for a moment, not knowing whether to leave or stay.

Just then, Lin Zhennan heard the noise here and finally rushed over.

"Who are you, old man?"

Lin Zhennan looked at the unfamiliar old man in front of him and asked in confusion.

"Give him a seat at our table. This is Qu Feiyan's grandfather."

From the conversation between the other party and Dongfang Sheng and Qu Feiyan, Chu Yuan guessed that the old man should be the Demon Cult elder Qu Yang.

Lin Zhennan shuddered.

Compared to the previous false accusations from the Five Mountains Sword Sect, the person in front of him was actually a real member of the Demon Sect. He did not expect that he had also arrived in Fuzhou City.

Lin Zhennan immediately arranged a seat for Qu Yang, right next to Qu Feiyan, and then left.

"Grandpa, my parents died at the hands of thieves. I have already become a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect and am learning martial arts from my master. When I have mastered martial arts, I will avenge my parents."

After Grandpa Qu Yang sat down, Qu Feiyan, with tears in her eyes, lowered her voice and spoke in Grandpa Qu Yang's ear.

"Silly granddaughter, I'm here to avenge your parents. Come with me."

Qu Yang persuades his granddaughter Qu Feiyan.

His granddaughter Qu Feiyan is only five years old. Things like revenge are not something that a five-year-old child needs to worry about.

He Qu Yang is not dead yet!
What's more, the Qingcheng Sect is not a very powerful sect in the martial arts world. It is only at a second-rate level. What powerful martial arts can you learn by joining the Qingcheng Sect?
"I do not go."

"why?"

"Grandpa, I already have a master."

"Who is your master?"

Qu Yang was chatting with his granddaughter Qu Feiyan. Qu Yang wanted to take Qu Feiyan away, but Qu Feiyan was unwilling, which made Qu Yang feel helpless.

"Mr. Qu, I am not talented. I am her master."

Chu Yuan, who was sitting on the other side of Qu Feiyan, spoke.

Qu Yang turned around and saw a young Taoist priest who looked too young, had just had a drink with the leader, was wearing a black gauze Taoist robe, had a handsome face and an extraordinary temperament.

"Who is your Excellency?"

Qu Yang was curious.

This person must be extraordinary to be able to let the leader sit at the same table and drink with him.

"My surname is Chu Yuan, and the head of Qingcheng Sect, Yu Canghai, is my senior brother."

Chu Yuan put down his wine glass and pointed to his senior brother Yu Canghai who was being kowtowed to by Lin Pingzhi not far away.

"The junior brother of the Qingcheng Sect's leader?"

Qu Yang was surprised.

"But now it is widely rumored in Fuzhou City that it is said that the young hero Chu defeated the Five Mountains Sword Sect for the Fuwei Escort Agency alone with his sword?"

Qu Yang then asked again.

Although he didn't think highly of the entire Qingcheng Sect.

But there was one exception.

That was Chu Yuan, who had just defeated the Five Mountains Sword Sect with just his sword not long ago.

Four months ago, he heard the bad news from his hometown in Yuezhou Prefecture, Huguang, saying that his son and daughter-in-law were murdered by villains, and his granddaughter Qu Feiyan was abducted and her whereabouts were unknown.

Afterwards, he used his network of connections within the Demon Cult to track down his granddaughter's whereabouts.

After more than three months of investigation, they found out half a month ago that their granddaughter had been sent to the Fuwei Escort Agency in Fuzhou City, thousands of miles away.

So he immediately rushed to Fuzhou City from Northern Zhili. When he arrived at the Fuwei Escort Agency in Fuzhou City, he saw that the front yard was in ruins, as if it had just been through a battle.

After asking the escorts from the Fuwei Escort Agency, he learned the general course of events and how Chu Yuan, alone with just a sword, had fought against the Five Mountains Sword Sects. Upon learning that his granddaughter Qu Feiyan was in the Baiyu Tower, he immediately rushed over.

He only knew that Yu Canghai, the leader of the Qingcheng Sect, accepted Lin Pingzhi, the son of Mr. Lin of the Fuwei Escort Agency, as his disciple, but he didn't know that his granddaughter became Chu Yuan's apprentice.

"The young hero Chu that Mr. Qu mentioned must be me. There is no one else here with the last name Chu."

Chu Yuan replied.

He was also a little surprised. Did the news of his victory over the Five Mountains Sword Sect spread so quickly?

In less than a day, the news spread.

"Mr. Qu just said that he wanted to take Feiyan away. If Mr. Qu doesn't want Feiyan to be my disciple, then just take her away."

Chu Yuan glanced at Qu Yang and said.
