Chapter 834: The Old Patriarch's Birthday Banquet
As November begins, the weather gradually becomes colder, but in the Five Elements Gate General Hall in the remote suburbs of Huizhao City, western Zhongzhou Province, the festive atmosphere completely eliminates the cold.
Jin Aoxiang, the ancestor of the Five Elements Sect, has been back from Fusang for nearly a month, but since he came back, he began to practice in seclusion.
Therefore, even if my friends from the martial arts world came to visit, they could not meet this ancestor.
Until today, it happened to be Jin Aoxiang’s 80th birthday. Although according to Jin Aoxiang’s meaning, the Five Elements Sect did not make a big splash, neighboring martial arts friends were still invited to watch the ceremony.
Meng Hao also arrived as promised.
During this period, Meng Hao used extreme pressure to squeeze out all the potential of the Wolf Tooth Team members. In just over half a month, the combat effectiveness of all the players increased sharply.
After participating in the Soldier King Selection Championship, although the Wolf Teeth Team failed to win the first place, it was only slightly worse than the usual champion Feilong Team, and it beat the other four teams to win the second place.
This is a surprise for the Wolf Teeth Team, which has been at the bottom for many consecutive sessions.
Therefore, the members of the Wolf Tooth Team were both respectful and fearful of Meng Hao. When Meng Hao left, all members of the Wolf Tooth Team respectfully saluted him.
Just as Jin Aoxiang was on his 80th birthday, Jin Aoxiang called Meng Hao in person and asked Meng Hao to come to the Five Elements Sect to discuss, Meng Hao happily agreed.
After Jin Aoxiang returned to the Five Elements Sect, Jin Yunhao finally rushed back from Fusang.
Jin Yuqiang, the current head of the Five Elements Sect, said that he had no order to return without authorization and was going to do a heavy matter, but considering that the old ancestor returned, once he suppressed Jin Yunhao too much, it would inevitably make the old ancestor dislike him.
Jin Yuqiang could only temporarily suppress his anger and wait until he slowly found an opportunity to settle accounts with Jin Yunhao. As for the business of the Fusang branch, he could only send someone else to Fusang to preside over the presidency.
So when Meng Hao arrived at the Five Elements Sect, it was Jin Yunhao who personally received it.
At this moment, three people in the Five Elements Sect had met Meng Hao, namely Gu Qian, Yu Wen Zhen, and Jin Yuqiang's eldest son Jin Yunhong.
Among them, Yuwen Zhen was originally just an elder of the Five Elements Sect. After being sacked by Hiroichi Hatoyama, he naturally could not continue to stay in the Five Elements Sect. The Five Elements Sect gave him a large amount of pension and sent him away.
Gu Qian was also abolished his kung fu, but Gu Qian is a genuine elder of the Five Elements Sect and has several outstanding disciples under his sect, so he still has the title of elder, but he can no longer participate in important affairs in the sect.
For example, at this birthday party today, Gu Qian did not arrange for anything to do. He was actually embarrassed to meet people, so he hid at home and did not appear.
As for Jin Yunhong, although he had met Meng Hao, Meng Hao had changed his appearance in front of him, so he actually couldn't recognize Meng Hao.
In addition, Jin Yunhong has been showing his gratitude in front of the ancestor and has not come to receive the guests, so he naturally will not meet Meng Hao.
Therefore, no one in the Five Elements Sect knew Meng Hao's identity, and the thin and beautiful young man in front of him was the great benefactor who rescued their ancestors from Fusang.
On the contrary, most people think that Meng Hao is just a little brat who follows Jin Yunhao to the Five Elements Sect to fight Qiufeng, and Jin Yunhao's position in the Five Elements Sect is a bit awkward, so most of the Five Elements Sects regard Meng Hao as nothing, and even responds with disdain.
But Jin Yunhao was talking with Meng Hao, but Jin Yuqiang caught a glimpse of it again. He immediately scolded Jin Yunhao for not going to help entertain guests, and fell here to chat with people.
When Jin Yuqiang said this, he naturally ignored Meng Hao.
Jin Yunhao's anger rushed upwards and wanted to directly reveal Meng Hao's identity.
But Meng Hao didn't want the guests in the hall to know his identity, so he shook his head at Jin Yunhao.
Jin Yunhao had no choice but to call him a disciple who had a good relationship with him and asked him to help greet Meng Hao. He walked away and greeted other guests by himself.
The disciple was named Fang Zhiyou. Although he had some friendship with Jin Yunhao, because Jin Yunhao's position in the Five Elements Sect was awkward, he had now begun to keep a distance from Jin Yunhao.
Besides, in his eyes, Meng Hao is a weak scholar who has never practiced martial arts before, and there is no need to work hard to know that he can be with him.
Therefore, I realized that Meng Hao had just said something perfunctory, so I walked away and went to talk to the young VIP with background and qualifications.
A disciple at the bottom who helped the guests to bring tea and water came over and helped Meng Hao add tea first, and said, "My name is Shi Xiaoyuan. If you have any needs, you can call me directly!"
Meng Hao nodded and suddenly asked him: "How long have you been in the Five Elements Sect?"
Shi Xiaoyuan's face turned red and said, "It's been five or six years. Just because I'm a rude person, I'm still a disciple who helps with chores!"
Meng Hao nodded and said, "Your qualifications are not bad, but no one has discovered your potential! So... don't be discouraged, I'm optimistic about you!"
Shi Xiaoyuan smiled at Meng Hao gratefully, but did not take Meng Hao's words to heart, but went elsewhere to work hard.
At the same time, there were two girls not far away, looking at Meng Hao and talking quietly.
One of these two people is named Wang Shuyuan and the other is named Bai Shuangshuang.
The two of them are both good friends and love rivals, because they both like Jin Yunhao very much.
In fact, with Jin Yunhao's handsome appearance and outstanding talent, many celebrities in Huizhao City are affectionate with him.
Wang Shuyuan and Bai Shuangshuang are two famous beauties in Huizhao City. Jin Yunhao and they both had a brief relationship.
Until recent years, Jin Yuqiang, the leader of the Five Elements Sect, became increasingly suspicious of Jin Yunhao, which led to Jin Yunhao's position in the Five Elements Sect becoming more and more awkward.
Especially two years ago, Jin Yunhao invited him to the Fusang branch. Most of the girls who used to like Jin Yunhao have changed their goals.
Even Wang Shuyuan, under the leadership of her father, began to approach Jin Yunlang, the youngest son of the Five Elements Sect leader Jin Yuqiang.
Only Bai Shuangshuang still has a deep affection for Jin Yunhao. Without her parents' repeated opposition, Bai Shuangshuang never refused to find another boyfriend.
It’s a pity that Jin Yunhao knew that the situation was in a difficult situation and was discouraged. He was always close to the girls around him and never showed that he liked whoever he liked better.
The same is true for Bai Frost.
Wang Shuyuan's father and Bai Shuangshuang's father have both practiced martial arts, but in modern society, unless you are a master of martial arts, ordinary martial arts people cannot make a living by relying on martial arts. Therefore, the Wang family and the Bai family each opened a small company.
It is said that it is a small company, but it actually has hundreds of millions of assets, but it is only smaller than the Zhenwu Group, which is affiliated with the Five Elements Sect.
Zhenwu Group is considered to be the largest commercial group in Huizhao City. The Wang family and Bai family companies basically rely on Zhenwu Group for their own income.
This is also the reason why Mr. Wang asked his daughter to be as close as possible to Jin Yunlang.
In fact, Bai Shuangshuang's father also strictly prohibited his daughter from getting along with Jin Yunhao, but asked her to pursue Jin Yunhong or Jin Yunlang instead, but Bai Shuangshuang disagreed.
Jin Yunhao knew Bai Shuangshuang's affection for him, but he kept a distance from Bai Shuangshuang. It was precisely because Jin Yunhao knew very well that Bai Shuangshuang did not agree with Bai Shuangshuang's relationship with him.
The Bai family and the Wang family have business dealings with Zhenwu Group, while the other hand, the Bai father and Wang father can be regarded as martial arts people, so the Wang and Bai family are also invited to this birthday party today.
"Who did you think that person is? Why does Yunhao seem to value him very much?"
Wang Shuyuan whispered to Bai Shuangshuang.
Wang Shuyuan is now considered Jin Yunlang's girlfriend, but what Wang Shuyuan really likes is Jin Yunhao.
Especially when she knew that Bai Shuangshuang had always been deeply in love with Jin Yunhao, she did not restrain her affection for Jin Yunhao. Instead, she couldn't help but call Jin Yunhao "Yunhao" directly in front of Bai Shuangshuang, and used this to remind Bai Shuangshuang that the love between her and Jin Yunhao was no worse than her Bai Shuangshuang.
Bai Shuangshuang knew her mentality but could not point it out, but she responded in a low voice: "I don't know either! Seeing him standing alone, why don't we talk to him? It can be regarded as taking care of him on behalf of Yun Hao!"
"What's there to take care of? I saw that this man was just an unknown man. Even if he took good care of him, he would not get any benefits. I would not go if I wanted to go there!"
Wang Shuyuan said with a lip silence.
Bai Shuangshuang knew that Wang Shuyuan was a little arrogant and down-skinned, so she didn't say much to her, just said, "If I go, I will go!"
Then Bai Shuangshuang walked towards Meng Hao.
Wang Shuyuan felt a little boring, so she chased after her from behind and said, "I'd better go with you! Look at this kid's stupid look, let's go tease him!"
"You!"
