Chapter 2610: Banquet
His voice paused, and he took a deep breath. He knew very well where this treatment came from. If something had happened to him, he was afraid that the status of his father and his wife in the Xie Family would plummet and no one would be able to protect them.
“This Immortal Ascension Ladder is one step to Heaven and one step to Hell. Those who can climb up are immortals, and for those who can’t climb up, it would be worse than being knocked down into the mortal world! Sigh!” The old man sighed: “Even so, there are still people who want to climb this ladder every year, but there are often very few successful people.”
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to stay in the Mansion for too long now. The boundary barrier to ascend the Immortal Ascension Ladder will open in seven or eight months, so I must go there in advance to wait.” Xie Yan said. He thought about his wife and children, and couldn’t help but feel heavy hearted.
“When the time comes, give it a try. If you can’t, come down quickly. Don’t let the array knock you back down. You must know that if you come down by yourself, you can keep your strength. But if you get knocked down by the array, that is difficult to say.”
“I know.” He nodded, then he remembered something and said: “Father, what do you think of Feng Jiu?”
“Feng Jiu? Why? Why do you ask this?” The old man looked at him in surprise.
Feng Jiu, who was lying on the rooftop, raised her eyebrows and listened to the conversation.
“Well, it’s just that today…” He told his Father about letting Feng Jiu pick the servants, and finally said: “I originally thought that Feng Jiu was a simple and honest boy, but after today, I think that he is not someone ordinary.”
Upon hearing this, the old man stroked his beard and thought for a while, then he said: “If it is as you have said, then it is indeed a little unusual. However, one thing is certain, and that is this young man bears no ill will towards our family. What’s more, we met him along the way, even if he has any secrets, that’s normal, as long as he doesn’t do anything to endanger our family.”
After Feng Jiu heard this, she left quietly and avoided the dark guards and returned to her room secretly the way she came out.
She had originally wanted to go to the main manor to look for information, however, it seemed that she didn’t need to do so now. As long as she followed Xie Yan, she would naturally be able to reach the place where the Immortal Ascension Ladder is.
The next day.
The doorkeeper had received an invitation from the Ruan Family, the invitation was handed over to the beautiful woman by Feng Jiu.
“Mother, whose family did this invitation come from? What is it for?” Xie Shisi was eating the fruit in her hand while she looked at her mother opening the invitation.
After the beautiful woman glanced at it, she smiled: “It’s an invitation from the Mistress of the Ruan Family. She invited us to attend her birthday banquet in two days.”
“Is Father going too?” She asked curiously.
“Your Father won’t be attending. This is just a banquet for the family members and children of some influential families where you can make friends with the noble families in the city.” The beautiful woman replied and put away the invitation.
“Then will Xiao Jiu come with us?” Xie Shisi thought about it and asked: “Will the men and women be seated together?”
“No, they will be seated separately.” The beautiful woman said, then she looked at Feng Jiu who was standing beside her and asked: “Xiao Jiu, is your voice better? I have told the kitchen to boil some soothing drinks for your throat, have some later.”
Feng Jiu was stunned when she heard this, and nodded.
The beautiful woman looked at him and smiled, then she said warmly: “When the time comes, you will come to the banquet with us! I will watch Xiao Shi on the women’s side, and you will have to keep an eye out on Yutang’s side.”
“Who needs him to watch over me? It will be fine if he doesn’t cause trouble.” Xie Yutang walked in from outside and glanced at Feng Jiu who was beside him.
