"Winter Sun Season banquet?"
Lin Hao's heart was slightly stunned, and he obviously also didn't expect that Qin Yu and the others were going to organize a banquet as well.
Because three days later, it was the time when Ma Shuo Liang went to the residence of Captain Wang's residence to attend the banquet, and under that kind of occasion, assassinating the prey was undoubtedly the best time to do so.
As his mind turned, Lin Hao inquired, "Where are you organizing it?"
This time, Qin Yu didn't rush to reply.
Instead, Yan Chen opened his mouth and smiled, "I have a private mansion within the Imperial Capital City, with a clean and elegant environment, so everyone can drink and talk to their hearts' content."
Hearing this, Lin Hao pondered in his heart.
It seemed that the reason why these emperors would organize a banquet during this Winter Sun Season was that the drunkard's intention was not to drink wine, which inevitably had a major political significance.
And their main purpose was most likely to be determining the supporting members of their respective factions now.
After all, not my kind, their hearts must be different.
If the person who did not come to the banquet, the meaning is naturally very obvious, and do not want to stand in the same camp with you.
And from the relationship between Qin Yu and Yan Chen, the Qin Clan's General House seems to have chosen Yan Chen for the prince who is fighting for the throne.
Although he did not want to get involved in this mess, if he refused Yan Chen's invitation and instead went forward to attend the Winter Sun Season Banquet on Yan Fengjun's side.
This choice might cause Qin Yu and the others to misunderstand, thinking that he had stood against them.
Thinking about this, Lin Hao couldn't help but have a trace of helplessness in his heart.
However, Lin Hao didn't have any indecision in his heart, and said bluntly, "I'm sorry, that night, I happened to already have a date."
"What? A date?!"
Qin Yu froze, then immediately looked at Lin Hao fawningly, inquiring, "You wouldn't have gotten back together with Zhao Ling'er?"
"Of course not."
Lin Hao shook his head with a faint smile.
Mentioning Zhao Ling'er, Lin Hao couldn't help but see that beautiful face in his mind.
He hadn't gone forward to study in the spells class of the Spirit indistinct hall in recent times, and counting the days, it had been more than three months since they had met each other.
"Then who are you dating?"
Hearing Lin Hao's denial, Qin Yu couldn't help but ask again.
However, it seemed that he already had a bad premonition in his heart.
However, he saw Lin Hao blandly reply, "Actually, when I won Yan Fengjun's one hundred million taels of gambling money while I was at the Illusory Killing Stage today, he invited me to the banquet instead."
Hearing this, Qin Yu's face changed violently.
Obviously, for that Yan Fengjun fellow, he completely had a great rejection.
In Yan Chen's bright eyes, a trace of dissimilarity also flashed through.
"I've been invited, so naturally I can't go back on my words, I hope you guys can understand."
When he said this, Lin Hao had a calm face, not showing the slightest bit of guilt or apology.
If it was because of the difference in camp standings that caused everyone's relationship to deteriorate, Lin Hao felt that there was no need to continue maintaining such a friend.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yu smiled sagely and patted Lin Hao's shoulder, saying, "Since you've promised someone else, you indeed can't go back on your word."
"How about this, we'll adjust the time of our banquet, and we'll all wait for your second half together, how's that?"
Qin Yu's tone was very sincere, completely without the slightest bit of alienation towards Lin Hao's choice and thus.
Next to him, Yan Chen agreed and smiled, "That's right, we'll wait for you."
At those words, Lin Hao couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Immediately, he also grinned and nodded without hesitation, "Good."
Seeing Lin Hao promise so painfully, the suspicion in Yan Chen's heart slightly diminished.
In his opinion, perhaps Lin Hao really didn't have any other ideas, and was merely purely agreeing to someone else's invitation.
"Alright, it's a deal, haha."
Qin Yu instantly laughed, quite satisfied with this impromptu arrangement of his.
Of course, the main thing was that Lin Hao was willing to come and party with them.
Even if the time was a bit later, it didn't matter.
Because they, the Iron Triangle of dormitory 008, had to be without one.
"By the way, how come I rarely see Lei Meng lately, what's he up to?"
Lin Hao inquired with a light smile.
"That bastard is moisturized now."
Mentioning Lei Meng, Qin Yu waved his hand and said, "He screwed a girl a while ago, and he accompanies the other person to cultivate every day, not to mention how sweet it is."
"However, I hope he doesn't get too emotionally invested, or else the loss will outweigh the gain."
Speaking of this, the smile on Qin Yu's face, slightly tightened, said faintly.
Hearing this, Lin Hao was slightly surprised and asked, "What's going on?"
Qin Yu said with a composed face, "As far as I know, that sister is called Yan Hong, and her family's gong method is also bizarre and evil."
Beside him, Yan Chen also nodded his head and said, "This Yan Clan, I've also heard some rumors about it."
"The reason why their family's martial arts are evil and obscene is because this technique requires both men and women to cultivate."
"The male absorbs the woman's yin qi as nourishment, while the female absorbs the man's yang qi to enhance her cultivation speed, completely for their own benefit, disregarding the well-being of the person who is double-cultivating."
Listening to Qin Yu and Yan Chen and the two of them, Lin Hao couldn't help but have a trace of surprise well up on his face.
If that was really the case, then when the time came, wouldn't it be ... true that Lei Meng and that Yan Clan woman had developed to the point of physical dual cultivation?
Thinking about this, Lin Hao frowned.
"If I find out that she dares to be unkind to Lei Meng, I won't spare her."
Qin Yu's voice was icy cold, and his face was slowly gloomy.
"Well, if you notice anything wrong, be sure to inform me."
Lin Hao delivered with a solemn face.
He understood Lei Meng's character very well, although his battle power was wild and his martial arts skills were not bad.
However, due to the fact that he used to live deep in the mountains and wilds, he rarely came into contact with the outside society, and his mind was relatively simple.
In Lin Hao and Qin Yu's hearts, the two of them had long treated Lei Meng as their younger brother, and would never tolerate Lei Meng's life being ruined because of a woman.
"Brother Hao, Brother Yu, you guys are back so early."
Just at this moment, Lei Meng happened to walk into the dormitory.
Lin Hao's conversation with them was on point.
And it was discovered that Lei Meng didn't come alone, beside him, there was also a woman in purple.
Lin Hao's mind moved slightly, and through the vision of the four treasures, he sized up that purple-clothed woman.
Although she wasn't quite a beautiful woman, she had a pretty face and a curvy figure.
However, that pair of eyes, between the blinking of the long eyelashes, was as charming as it could be.
Undoubtedly, this woman, was exactly what Qin Yu had just said about Yan Hong.
"Little Lei ah, you came just in time, in a few days it will be the Winter Sun Season, we are planning to organize a banquet."
Qin Yu immediately resumed his usual cheeky smile as if nothing had happened.
Hearing that there is a banquet, Lei Meng immediately brightened up and grinned, "Yes, can I bring my friend along?"
Saying that, Lei Meng also introduced everyone, "This is my friend, named Yan Hong."
"First time meeting, nice to meet you all."
Yan Hong smiled lightly and nodded slightly at Lin Hao and the others.
While its gaze swept past Qin Yu, Yan Chen, and Lin Hao and the three of them, it slightly paused to look at Lin Hao twice more.
Immediately, Qin Yu also briefly introduced Yan Chen to Lei Meng.
Then he looked at Yan Hong, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said in a joking tone, "If you want to be our younger sibling, you have to be honest."
Hearing these words, the simple natured Lei Meng, immediately blushed, not knowing how to interject all of a sudden, but also enjoying hearing the word 'younger sibling' as a term of endearment.
However, these words fell in the ears of that Yan Hong, but see her willow eyebrows slightly knit, but soon is to stretch, and then pretend to hide the shy nod.
Such small changes in expression, under the attention of the Four Treasures, were all collected in Lin Hao's mind.
"This woman, she really does have some impure thoughts."
Lin Hao secretly shook his head, feeling more and more that Lei Meng would definitely be confused in the future.
However, right now, Lei Meng was afraid that he had already fallen in love, making it difficult to distinguish.
In this regard, Lin Hao didn't want to interfere too much.
Only by experiencing it personally could Lei Meng be deeply honed, and thus grow up faster.
"I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Facing Qin Yu and Lin Hao and the others, Yan Hong seemed a bit unnatural and wanted to leave.
"Alright, I'll see you off."
Lei Meng immediately showed his macho image and took the initiative to see them off.
As the two of them left, the smile on Qin Yu's face slowly turned cold as he whispered, "Surely not some ordinary woman."
Lin Hao said blandly, "Let Lei Meng deal with his own affairs first, although he looks simple and naive, he's not stupid."
Hearing Lin Hao's proposal, Qin Yu nodded and said, "I understand, but it's also necessary to prompt him."
The fourth prince Yan Chen stood on the side, but he was silent.
Not long after, Lei Meng, who had finished seeing off his guests, had walked back to the dormitory.
As soon as he entered the dormitory, he was grinning at Lin Hao and the others, "How does she look?"
"Not bad, can be considered a beauty."
Qin Yu immediately answered, then hinted meaningfully, "Little Lei, can you know what kind of technique the Yan Clan cultivates?"
Upon hearing this, Lei Meng, however, pulls a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth and nods his head, "Brother Yu, I know what you want to say."
What?
Qin Yu is slightly stunned and looks at Lei Meng in surprise.
"Your kid's mind-reading skill is that powerful? Surprisingly, you know what I want to say?"
Qin Yu could not help but be a little surprised and asked with a suspicious face.
"Uh-huh."
Lei Meng nodded and said, "The Yan Clan's 'Harmonization Canon Secret' has always been based on dual cultivation between a man and a woman, but the one who is the recipient of it usually doesn't have a good ending."
Hearing that Lei Meng would even say this, Lin Hao and the others secretly nodded.
It seemed that this guy, too, didn't dare to mess around without knowing anything.
"Since you already know, there's no need for me to talk too much."
Qin Yu smiled sarcastically, then reached out and patted Lei Meng's shoulder, exhorting, "The matter of dual cultivation, try not to touch it if you can hold back, and if you really can't hold back, you can use your hands to solve it."
Speaking at the end, Qin Yu made a wink at Lei Meng with a you-know-what look.
Solve it with your hands?
Lei Meng was immediately stunned, how did this sound as if the other party was very experienced.
Lin Hao also couldn't help but laugh secretly at Qin Yu's persuasion plus quirkiness.
Using one's hands was indeed the best way sometimes.
"Brother Hao, Brother Yu, don't worry, I have my own measure."
Lei Meng had a solemn face, and then he hemmed and hawed.
Everyone, however, was oblivious to the fact that the smile on his face contained a hint of imperceptible coldness.
No one knew what exactly was going on in Lei Meng's inner thoughts.
And then, after everyone talked and chatted for a while, Yan Chen left the dormitory.
Qin Yu seemed to have a private matter to chat with Yan Chen, so he also followed him out.
Lin Hao didn't have the heart to guess what the two of them would talk about, and returned to the dormitory to meditate.
Only when one's own strength increased, no matter what difficulties one faced, it was the main guarantee.
On the road.
Yan Chen had an indifferent face as he idly walked out of the first year dormitory area.
"Chen, I haven't made many friends since I was young, Lin Hao is my brother, and this time, I brought you to know him with no other intention."
When walking out of the gate of the dormitory area, Qin Yu glanced at Yan Chen and said in a low voice, "Our plan, I hope it doesn't involve him as well."
At those words, Yan Chen suddenly stopped in his steps.
He looked at Qin Yu with a calm gaze and said indifferently, "All beings in the world run around fighting for benefits."
"Since you are brothers, why don't you work together for the sake of benefits and share the same hardships."
Hearing this, Qin Yu's eyes sank slightly, naturally understanding the meaning of Yan Chen's words.
No wonder that as soon as this guy returned to the Heavenly Diffusion Academy today, he tried to inquire about Lin Hao and asked to be brought to get to know him.
It turned out to be an ulterior motive, wanting to rely on this relationship between him and Lin Hao, so as to bring him closer.
Since ancient times, the battle for the throne has been very dangerous, and if you bet on the wrong treasure, you will never recover!
Therefore, Qin Yu did not want Lin Hao, including Lei Meng, to be involved in the muddy water of the throne change.
Because this water is really too deep, and you may not be able to get killed at any time.
Moreover, with Lin Hao's ability and talent now, even if he didn't take advantage of this throne dispute, he could also create a field in the martial arts in the future that would be beyond people's reach.
However, Qin Yu, as the House of Generals, was not at liberty to do so.
"What do you think, Lin Hao was invited to my two royal brothers' banquet this time, does he already have any plans?"
Yan Chen looked at Qin Yu with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth and inquired.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yu smiled, "You can rest assured about this, Lin Hao will never be pulled away by Yan Fengjun and the others."
"Oh? What does that mean?"
Yan Chen's gaze moved slightly, trying to understand Lin Hao from Qin Yu's mouth and reduce some of his suspicion.
"Although Lin Hao is usually silent and acts in a mysterious manner, he is a person who is not constrained and loves freedom."
Qin Yu talked about Lin Hao, and his face couldn't help but show a sincere smile, saying, "Moreover, he knows about your and my relationship today, and even more so, he won't throw himself into the Grand Prince's and their banners and go against us."
"Is that so, then it couldn't be better."
At those words, Yan Chen's face moved slightly.
Immediately, he was sighing softly and murmured, "But this kind of talent, wanting to be used for me, it seems to be a bit difficult as well, a pity."
Next to him, Qin Yu fell silent, and didn't want to talk about chatting too much about Lin Hao with Yan Chen anymore.
Otherwise, with Yan Chen's extremely deep city nature, he would definitely try many means to try to pull Lin Hao in for his use.
And then, once involved in the disputes of this throne change, with Lin Hao's current popularity in the Tianyan Academy, as well as the lack of any strong family background, I was afraid that it would only lead to the trouble of killing him.
