Five days later, it will be the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, three days left before the first day of the lunar new year.

The feast at Sage Mountain has already been arranged, and the caller Dadi Sect and Yin Yang Shenmen have arranged the seats for each sect. Of course, if you are not satisfied with the seating position, you can discuss it with the two sects. After all, the two sects have always said

There is no distinction between host and guest at this feast, all sects are treated equally.

The open-air banquet venue is very large. After all, it accommodates thirty-one sects plus the Ice and Fire Alliance. Each sect has a seat for nearly a hundred people. In order to facilitate communication between each family, the entire venue is circular and divided into two circles, the inner and the outer.

.The sect leaders, heads and core elders of each sect sit together and belong to the inner circle. The banquet in the inner circle can accommodate no more than ten people at most. The other elders and disciples are in the outer circle.

There is a venue of about fifty feet in the inner circle, which is used for various singing and dancing performances. For these powerful people, a mere fifty feet does not hinder communication at all. They can hear their words clearly, not to mention the transmission of spiritual consciousness.

explain.

According to the estimated process, the feast started in the morning and lasted until around midnight. After all, if such a large feast ended too quickly, it would be too hasty and it would be difficult to achieve the effect of communication. Some sects even proposed to continue.

Two days, but the Earth Sect and the Yin Yang Divine Sect did not agree. Of course, if no one wants to leave at midnight, the banquet can be postponed until the end of the day.

Since there are only three days left, most sects have sent people to observe the venue and make detailed arrangements. Each sect will prepare at least one performance, so it is necessary to know how the venue is, and each sect wants to know about other sects.

Which location is best to prepare for communication in advance.

Like the sect, the Ice and Fire Alliance also sent people.

A teleportation circle was opened, and six people were seen walking out of it. The five people behind them were all eighth-level heavenly masters, but the woman in the leader was a seventh-level heavenly master. This woman was none other than Shuang'er.

Shuang'er's temperament gave people a clean and pure feeling at a glance, which was very endearing. Liu Yi asked her to come and view the venue, and soon she and the five elders found the location of the Ice and Fire Alliance.

The feast venue is centered on the north and south. The Earth Sect is in the north and the Yin-Yang Divine Gate is in the south. The positions of the sects are basically in accordance with the alliance.

According to the standards of friends and allies, the left and right sides of the Yin Yang Divine Gate are the Crane Gate and the Six Directions Gate respectively. As for the Ice and Fire Alliance, the Volcano Gate and the Ten Thousand Shadows Sect are on the left, and the Huayue Sect and the Yanyu Sect are on the right. They are all sects that are very close to the Ice and Fire Alliance.

Door.

Seeing this arrangement, Shuang'er also breathed a sigh of relief. It must be a good thing to have friends by your side, at least you won't be alone.

After seeing their position, Shuang'er and the five elders came to the cliff and looked down. Five thousand feet away from the top of the mountain, at the bottom of the mountain was a huge open space with a side length of six thousand feet. The surrounding bottom of the mountain had been cleared.

It is much larger than it was at the beginning. There are many large buildings surrounding the 6,000-foot open space, which are obviously arranged in some special formation.

"Miss Liu."

A voice suddenly sounded behind her. Shuang'er was startled and turned her head to look back.

Shuang'er is a given name, and her surname is Liu. Only family members call her this name, especially in diplomacy. Others can only call her "Miss Liu".

The person who spoke to Shuang'er was none other than Bian Zhan, one of the core elders of the Yin Yang Divine Sect.

"Elder Bian." Shuang'er smiled. She often communicated with the Yin Yang Divine Sect and Bian Zhan, so they were considered acquaintances.

"Are you looking at the field below?" Bian Zhan came to Shuang'er and stood on the cliff to look down.

"Yes." Shuang'er said, "I didn't expect the venue to be so big."

"After all, this is a battle between eighth-level Celestial Masters. To be able to do something big, it is better to be bigger. In fact, this is already very small, and it is difficult for an eighth-level Celestial Master to perform." Bian Zhan said, "How is the preparation of the Ice and Fire Alliance?"

"We can't compare with the sect. We can only say that we try our best." Shuang'er said, "The things we have prepared may not be as good as the sect."

That's right, at the suggestion of most sects, each family gave something as a reward to those who were recognized as outstanding in the competition. There can be more than one person, there can be many

, as long as you show your luck, it is not for the purpose of competing, but just to get a chance to win.

"It's good if you can express your feelings." Bian Zhan said, "If the Ice and Fire Alliance needs it, we can help prepare one. It won't be a big deal."

"Thank you, Elder Bian, for your kindness." Shuang'er said with a smile, "The Yin-Yang Divine Sect has been busy preparing for this feast for so long. Every family has to provide something, otherwise the Ice and Fire Alliance will just come and eat free rice."

Bian Zhan smiled and looked at the field below. There were many people busy around the field and in the air, seemingly checking the stability of the formation.

"The Ice and Fire Alliance should be more careful," Bian Zhan said suddenly.

Shuang'er's delicate body trembled and she looked at Bian Zhan.

Bian Zhan was still looking down and said in a calm tone, "I heard some rumors that several sects may be unfavorable to you. Unforeseen things may happen then. With so many sects present, although

They don't dare to do anything too extreme, but as long as they can barely get by, the various sects can't stop it, and the same goes for the Yin Yang Divine Sect. After all, we are not the masters."

Upon hearing Bian Zhan's words, Shuang'er's eyebrows furrowed. After communicating with Yin Yang for so long, she knew that Bian Zhan was a very steady person and would not talk casually.

"I understand." Shuang'er said, "Thank you, Elder Bian, for reminding me." .??.

"Well." Bian Zhan turned around and said, "Then I'll leave first, you guys take your time and watch."

Bian Zhan left, Shuang'er quickly saw all the surrounding scenes and then left Sage Mountain. She had to tell Liu Yi what Bian Zhan said quickly.

Two days later, New Year's Eve, Ice and Fire City.

For everyone in the world, New Year's Eve is the most important day of the year, bar none. It is the last day of the year, and it is also a day to prepare to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. Tomorrow is the feast of the thirty-one sects.

Everyone is tired from preparing for a month in advance. In order to celebrate the festival and to perform better tomorrow, everyone in the Ice and Fire Alliance will rest today.

.

At this moment, the Lu family members were also resting and gathered in the building closest to the Purple Lake in the private territory of the City Lord's Mansion, which was Lu An's pavilion.

Seven women spend New Year's Eve together, which feels a bit desolate. Even if the seven women want to create a happy atmosphere, they simply can't.

As of today, it has been forty-nine days since Lu An disappeared. It is also the day that Fu Yu said Lu An would be back soon. But now it is past noon, but there is no news.

There is no news from Lu An or Fu Yu.

The seven women were in the pavilion, and everyone was preparing a very sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. They not only celebrated it for themselves, but also looked forward to Lu An's return. If Lu An really came back, they hoped that Lu An could have a delicious New Year's Eve.

However, as the sun set and the sky gradually turned dark, there was still no sign of Lu An returning. The seven women had already prepared the New Year's Eve dinner, which was spread all over the table, but no one took a bite.

Everyone sat together in silence, and the quieter it became, the more unable to calm down. Everyone's emotions were obviously ups and downs. When the deadline came, everyone's long-suffering hearts could no longer hold back.

After a while, Liu Lan finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Liu Yi, "Sister, Lu An...can we go and ask Fu Yu?"

Liu Yi's body trembled slightly when she heard this. She frowned and looked at Liu Lan. Liu Lan was startled when she saw this. She knew she had said the wrong thing and lowered her head.

You must never go to the land of the Fu clan. This is Fu Yu's father. The head of the Fu clan told Lu An personally, let alone them?

"But... what if something goes wrong?" Yang Mu couldn't help but say, "How about we send someone to look for it again?"

Everyone looked at Yang Mu after hearing this. Liu Yi did the same and said seriously, "We can only trust Madam. If Madam can't do it, then we can't do it even more."

"That's right." Yang Meiren nodded lightly and said, "If Lu An doesn't come back, she must be more anxious than us. Let's just wait here and don't cause any trouble for her."
