Chapter 119: Invitation
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Under Lu Yuan’s secret observation, the door of the shop opposite him slowly opened.
The person who opened the door was a cultivator from Xueyang Sect. Judging from his cultivation, he had already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.
After the cultivator opened the door, he seemed to be talking to something.
As the Gates of Hell was filled with a strange fog, Lu Yuan could only see the general outline of the cultivator from Xueyang Sect but could not hear what he was saying.
Lu Yuan could only guess what he was saying from the movement of his lips.
As for who or what he was talking to, Lu Yuan could not see at all.
As Lu Yuan noted, the guy opposite seemed to be getting more and more impatient, to the extent that he wanted to directly make a move.
In the end, the Xueyang Sect cultivator launched an attack, as if he wanted to destroy something in front of him on the spot.
However, after the attack, that guy seemed to have seen something terrifying. He stopped in an instant and ran back into the room.
Then, the door of the cultivator suddenly shook, and dust fell from the door frame on both sides.
It looked as if a huge object or a pile of objects had squeezed into the courtyard where the Xueyang Sect cultivator was.
At this time, the knocking on Lu Yuan’s courtyard also stopped.
Lu Yuan guessed that the thing at his door was probably attracted by the commotion of the Xueyang Sect cultivator and he ran over to join in the crowd.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan began to silently record the time in his heart.
From the time the cultivator from Xueyang Sect escaped to the time the knocking on his door disappeared, the interval between them was definitely less than five seconds.
After about a minute, Lu Yuan realized that the knocking on his door had resumed.
At this moment, it returned to the original time of knocking once every five breaths.
It was obvious that this change was related to what happened on the opposite side.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan had even less desire to open the door.
Although due to the fog, Lu Yuan only saw the Xueyang Sect cultivator’s blood-coloured robe and a figure that seemed to have been mosaiced.
However, as an experienced person, Lu Yuan had already mastered a special ability that no one in this world could do… Mosaic Removal!
Although there was a mosaic, Lu Yuan still understood some useful things from the lips movement of the Xueyang Sect cultivator.
For example, he had determined that the conversation of the Xueyang Sect Cultivator was mixed with a few words that were useful for Lu Yuan.
They were ‘I didn’t’ and ‘Go away.’
Based on the Xueyang Sect cultivator’s actions, Lu Yuan determined that that fellow was most likely being asked to give something by the fellow outside the door.
However, not only did the Xueyang Sect cultivator not give anything that satisfied the other party, he even wanted to fight. In the end, he realized that he could not defeat the other party.
As a result, he ended up being attacked by a group of people.
Although Lu Yuan did not know the other party’s cultivation level, it could be seen from the knocking that had stopped but reappeared that the Xueyang Sect cultivator was most likely dead.
After this interlude, Lu Yuan became even more unflustered.
Since he could wait for others to scout ahead, Lu Yuan undoubtedly did not need to take the risk to open the door.
Who knew what was outside the door.
If he was not careful, he might end up failing miserably.
Under Lu Yuan’s patient waiting, three more cultivators could not hold back and took the initiative to open the door.
The cultivators who appeared later were from Xueyang Sect and a monk from Huanxi Sect.
Of the two, only the Huanxi Sect monk survived.
After leaving the main door, he walked deeper into the street.
After carefully recalling what the Huanxi Sect monk had done and combining it with the fate of the other two unlucky fellows, Lu Yuan almost made a decision.
The undetectable creature that appeared at his door seemed to be knocking on the door, waiting for them to take out something.
As long as they could give that guy something that satisfied him, they would be safe. In the end, they seemed to have to follow the creature and go to a certain location.
However, Lu Yuan had no idea what that something was or what was outside the door.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Yuan suddenly said to Meng Ruyan, “Senior sister, quickly go to this courtyard and see if there’s anything special.”
Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, although Meng Ruyan did not know what had happened, she still obediently ran to the other rooms and began to search.
Lu Yuan was still observing the situation outside during this process.
At present, the range that his spiritual sense could only cover a radius of 100 meters.
In addition, the courtyards in the area were not small. The overall area was about 20 meters radius, divided into a shop and a backyard.
Lu Yuan could only observe about five or six people.
This meant Lu Yuan did not have much time left.
Moreover, he could not guarantee that all the rooms he observed were occupied.
If some of these houses were empty, then the time left for Lu Yuan would be even lesser.
Because only when met with those cultivators who did not meet the requirements would the knocking stop.
After the Huanxi monk completed his request, the knocking on Lu Yuan’s door did not stop.
Although he knew that time was tight, Lu Yuan was not in a hurry.
Because he knew very well that being impatient would not get him anything.
The situation now was still unclear, opening the door rashly would only put him in danger.
He had to grasp the situation before opening the door. That was the safest method.
About a minute after Meng Ruyan left, two items appeared in her hands.
These two things were two invitations with the word ‘happiness’ written on them.
“Senior Sister, are you sure there’s nothing else in the room?”
Meng Ruyan nodded and said, “Junior Brother, I’m very sure.”
‘Tve searched this courtyard inside out. Indeed, only two invitations are special.”
Wanting something, invitations…
Lu Yuan’s thoughts instantly became clear.
He felt that he understood what the knocking on the door meant.
However, he felt that if he only took out these two invitations, it would not be safe enough.
After all, since there were people who came to invite them to be guests.
Naturally, there was no reason to go empty-handed.
From the looks of it, they should be attending a wedding banquet.
Who would attend someone else’s wedding banquet without bringing a gift?
Lu Yuan had reason to believe that if he did not prepare a gift, there would probably be a lot of trouble later.
However, what kind of gift should he prepare to satisfy the owner outside….
