Opening Blind Boxes

The acquaintance that Xu Mu noticed in his perception was none other than Wu Tian.

Wu Tian was currently chatting with a middle - aged man. That middle - aged man also had a pair of vertical pupils, obviously belonging to the Xiangliu clan.

No one knew when Wu Tian had established a connection with this clan.

But intentionally sending Fu Jinyu over this time and constantly giving reminders clearly indicated that it was a deliberate move against her.

With Wu Tian here this time, Xu Mu knew exactly what was going on.

In the original plot, Fu Jinyu was supposed to be part of Wu Tian's harem.

However, long before Wu Tian showed up, Xu Mu had already intervened. Fu Jinyu not only had no feelings for Wu Tian but also harbored hatred towards him.

But the fate between Wu Tian and Fu Jinyu clearly hadn't ended.

So this time, getting Fu Jinyu here must be related to Wu Tian.

Xu Mu remembered that before, the old man inside Wu Tian's body had already recovered a lot of his strength. He wondered what realm he had reached this time.

The two continued to go deeper and finally arrived at the place where the banquet was being held.

It was on a hillside in the middle of the ruins. There was a meadow under their feet, with very antique square wooden tables and long benches placed on it.

A high platform was built in the distance, all decorated in bright red.

After Xu Mu arrived here, he observed the people around and found that there were indeed quite a few other races.

But from their cautious looks, it was clear that like the Tianyao clan, their strength was far weaker than that of the Xiangliu clan.

"Fu Jinyu, long time no see."

Just as the two of them arrived here, an old bald man walked over from a distance. He was only about 1.6 meters tall.

This old man was thin, but he had a very big head.

It was almost twice the size of a normal person's head. Coupled with his thick neck, he looked like a Chinese cabbage.

"Hello, senior."

When Fu Jinyu saw this old man, she nodded slightly.

Then she introduced him to Xu Mu beside her: "This is Na Lang, a senior from the Tougui clan. He has a good relationship with our Tianyao clan and takes good care of me."

Xu Mu nodded gently and said with a smile: "Hello, senior."

While Fu Jinyu was introducing, he also checked this person's information through the God's Eye.

He found that this person was indeed not bad. His strength had reached the peak of the late stage of the Tuofan realm.

For the original Fu Jinyu, Na Lang could indeed be regarded as a senior.

However, Fu Jinyu had made rapid progress recently and had already entered the Pojie realm.

He also checked the filial piety value of this old man towards Fu Jinyu and found that it was 2.

Among these races, it was really commendable to have a positive filial piety value towards other races.

"I recently heard that you voluntarily cut off your subordinate races?"

Na Lang asked in confusion.

"I didn't really cut them off. I just let them develop on their own. Senior, you may not know that since my father died, those subordinate races have stopped paying tributes."

Fu Jinyu explained, "Moreover, we even had to give them some resources from time to time. It was like raising a group of idlers."

Hearing this, Na Lang also sighed, "You're right. It's good to let them go. Their overall strength is relatively weak, and now the external pattern is almost set. We don't need them anymore."

"That's what I thought too. Unless I take the initiative to develop in the inner realm, but with my current strength, I'm still far from qualified."

As Fu Jinyu was speaking, she suddenly looked into the distance. Her eyes instantly became sharp.

"Jinyu, it's been two or three years since we last saw each other, right? Before, when it came to birthday celebrations, it was always your second uncle, Fu Cheng, who came."

The person speaking was a middle - aged man wearing a python robe with grayish - white long hair.

There were two vertical pupils in his brown eyes.

Beside this middle - aged man was Wu Tian. It was also these two who had been chatting just now.

Xu Mu checked the identity of this middle - aged man through the God's Eye.

Name: Xiang Huo

Person: The clan leader of the Xiangliu clan

Favorability: 0

Destiny level: 2 (maximum level is 10)

Xu Mu also checked the realm of this person and found that he was in the late stage of the Tuofan realm.

Then he roughly understood the situation of this Xiangliu clan.

To put it simply, there was an old ancestor at the Pojie realm level above, but he didn't manage much of the affairs anymore.

Usually, it was this clan leader who took care of things.

If that old ancestor died, their Xiangliu clan would be similar to the Tianyao clan.

It seemed that these foreign races in the outside world were far from comparable to those in the inner realm.

Even a foreign race like the Baishi clan, which was not considered a top - tier one, could easily crush the outside races.

Of course, the powerful races like the Jiuli clan were an exception.

Fu Jinyu didn't give Xiang Huo a good look. "You've invited me here again and again. How could I not come?"

"Miss Fu Jinyu, hello."

Wu Tian also said with a playful smile beside him, "It's been a long time since we last saw each other."

"Brother Wu, you actually know each other?"

Xiang Huo laughed beside them.

"Sure. We met a few times when looking for treasures in other ruins before."

As Wu Tian was speaking, he didn't forget to show his affection to Fu Jinyu.

Fu Jinyu looked cold. This man in front of her had repeatedly tried to kill Xu Mu.

If it weren't for the inconvenience of taking action here, she would have attacked long ago.

"Hahaha! Everyone, long time no see."

Just then, an old man wearing a python robe flew over from the distant sky.

He was thin, with wrinkled faces and slender eyes.

This man slowly landed from the sky and stopped on the high platform in the distance.

When the people around saw this, they all bowed their hands and said, "Hello, senior."

Seeing this, Xiang Huo also led Wu Tian towards the high platform.

Wu Tian rubbed his nose and whispered, "Who is that man beside Fu Jinyu? I always feel like I've seen him somewhere."

"A useless person in the early stage of the Tuofan realm. You can easily deal with him now."

The voice of Li Poshan came into Wu Tian's ears. "It's just that it seems that because of the skills of the Tianyao clan, I can't see through Fu Jinyu's realm for a while, but she's still not to be feared."

Wu Tian also showed a smile. Although he had suffered a setback in front of Xu Mu before, later he entered an inner realm and found a divine medicine.

As a result, his strength had also made rapid progress. Under the guidance of Li Poshan, just a few days ago, he had also entered the early stage of the Tuofan realm.

"Everyone, please sit down and make yourselves at home."

The old man in the distance waved his hand to the people around.

Fu Jinyu looked at Xu Mu and explained softly, "He is Xiang Teng, the old ancestor of the Xiangliu clan."

Xu Mu nodded silently. Na Lang and the people he brought also sat on this side.

"Let's follow the old rule and continue to open blind boxes. Please put your gifts in the boxes and place them all on the stage. Whoever gives the worst gift has to give the old ancestor twice the value of the most valuable gift here."

Xiang Huo was now standing on the stage and smiling at the people below.

Seeing this, Xu Mu shook his head slightly. It was really a case of "when the cat's away, the mice will play."

This clan was really arrogant. By putting the gifts in the boxes, no one around would know what others were giving.

In order not to give the worst gift, everyone would definitely compete with each other.

In the end, they would all give some amazing treasures.

Xu Mu looked at Fu Jinyu and whispered, "What did you prepare?"
