The four of them sighed at the same time, a sense of helplessness in their hearts.

Miao Xiao Miao’s attitude had told them that today’s banquet was likely not just a birthday feast. It was quite possibly going to become a groom selection feast, or even… an engagement party?

Because there wasn’t even the slightest look of anxiousness in Miao Xiao Miao and Mo Jun Ye’s eyes. It was as if they did not even take this matter seriously. That only meant one thing: The matter between the two of them had already gotten the approval of the Miao Family!

Li Xing Yue had said those words to firstly remind and befriend, and also as a way of probing!

Now that the matter had been confirmed, the four of them finally gave up for real!

“Good rascal! You really have ability!” Li Xing Yue said with a light smile as he clapped his hand roughly against Jun Mo Xie’s shoulder and laughed. “You’re really… f*ck! The number one beauty of our Misty Illusory Manor was actually plucked away by you just like that! Today, I must make you drink until you’re lying under the table! Otherwise, how will the few of us be able to vent the frustration in our hearts!”

Meng Xian Ru and the rest instantly echoed their agreement. Since they were helpless against him in the field of love, and their chances of coming out on top based on Xuan cultivation talent was too minute, the only choice left was to destroy him at the drinking table! That would be the only way they could regain some of their wounded pride!

“I’ll gladly keep you company.” Jun Mo Xie said with a slight smile. “However… if the few of you end up under the table first, you mustn’t blame this brother for being a bad sport. There’s no room for mercy in this kind of matters.”

“With just you?” The few youngsters roared with laughter as their faces were filled with self confidence! The few of them were all people that had all gone through the fiery refinement of wine and alcohol. Moreover, their cultivation were extraordinary, and they were exceedingly confident in their ability to hold their liquor. This little fellow that came from the outside with only his Golden Xuan cultivation was truly fearless, to imagine that he could defeat all of them in a contest of drinking? What a ludicrous joke…

“We drink with our cultivations sealed.” Zhang Qi Yun reminded kindly, instantly earning the white eyes of the other three. Not to mention that our Xuan Qi is far superior, even if we didn’t use any Xuan Qi, with our ability to hold liquor, and in a situation of four against one, there’s no reason why we’ll lose. So what if the opponent has the legendary Free and Natural Physique? We’ve never heard that the Free and Natural Physique is immune to alcohol!

At that moment…

“Thank you everyone for attending this grand birthday celebration. May our Manor Lord have many more happy returns. We invite all out honored guests to proceed to the Longevity Hall to offer your blessings and present your gifts.” A voice suddenly rang out. Jun Mo Xie nearly burst out laughing: this Manor Lord is truly different from everyone, to think that he had even begun to openly ask for gifts… this was truly a little overbearing… Looks like apart from the Miao Family, the other seven large families as well as those other factions that have great status are going to have a hole in their wallets this time…

At this time, the Longevity Hall was already extremely lively!

All the high level people of the Misty Illusory Manor had practically all gathered for the sake of the Manor Lord’s grand birthday!

With just a single look, Young Master Jun was already completely speechless.

In this place, there were at least 40, 50 Saint Venerable level experts! Many reclusive experts had also come out this time. As for Saint Emperors, there were over a hundred of them in total. Even people of Cao Guo Feng and Bai Qi Feng’s caliber did not stand out at all in this kind of setting… such a lineup could be said to be exceedingly powerful…

Everyone was beaming and talking cheerfully, their faces wreathed in joy. The Zhan Family’s head Zhan Wu Yun was also smiling and interacting with everyone in a familiar manner, looking extremely happy. From the looks of it, he seemed even happier than if this was his own birthday…

Miao Jing Yun sat at the highest position, wearing a completely red long robe. A huge “longevity” was emblazoned right in the center of his chest, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was the old monster celebrating his 500th birthday today.

Truthfully, even without the huge ‘longevity’ word, he was the only fellow wearing red in the great hall, as if he was a red packet…

This kind of atmosphere might be a little tacky, but it was quite lively. It gave Jun Mo Xie a feeling of a thick kinship…

To be able to achieve such a great level of unity among the high echelons of the Misty Illusory Manor was no doubt an extremely admirable thing.

On the Xuan Xuan Continent, such a thing would be exceedingly rare!

As loud voice of the Master of Ceremonies rang out, everyone went up to give the Manor Lord their blessings and presented their carefully prepared presents. The atmosphere was joyful and lively, and as each present was revealed, the cheers and excitement in the hall grew greater and greater.

It was as if this birthday celebration was a day for flaunting wealth.

Miao Jing Yun sat happily atop the seat in the middle, and spoke softly with his old brothers, seemingly discussing something.

“Qiu Cheng Yun of the Qiu Family wishes the Manor Lord a blessed birthday and offers a Thousand Year Longevity Pine as present! May Manor Lord’s longevity be longer than a pine tree, remaining youthful for 10,000 years!” A bright voice rang out, and a thin and wizened old man walked out. Behind him, Qiu Peng carefully carried a small pine tree no taller than one chi, and as thick as a teacup. This pine tree was strangely shaped and looked like a miniature pine tree.

The miniature pine tree was placed in an extremely exquisite small white jade vase. Although the pine tree was small, it was covered in branches and green, forming a picture of prosperity with its neat and vibrantly colored crown. All of its pine needles were pointing outwards, with not a single one sticking upwards. Moreover, its trunk was strong and straight, and its bark hung closely against the trunk. With a single look, one could see that although this tree was small, its age was definitely not low…

“Thousand Years Longevity Pine?” Everyone’s eyes widened as they heard those four words, and they all turned their eyes towards the small pine tree. The crowd had seen plenty of Longevity Pine Trees, and it was nothing extraordinary. Not to mention a thousand years old one, even a Ten Thousand Year Longevity Pine was nothing to be amazed about.

But for a Longevity Pine Tree to have lived for a thousand years and still remain so small while growing naturally was something that they’d indeed seen for the first time!

When trees grow, it was natural that they would grow bigger and taller.

It was basically impossible for a pine tree to have grown for 1,000 years and be in this state. There were clearly factors within this that everyone did not understand. But no matter what, this Longevity Pine Tree had clearly snatched all the attention in this gifting ceremony!

In that moment, nearly everyone had surrounded the Longevity Pine Tree, exclaiming with amazement.

Everyone here were peak experts of the present age. With a simple sweep of their spiritual sense, they had already seen through the essence of this pine tree. There was indeed no doubt that it had experienced the ages of a thousand years. A person said with an impressed smile, “Old Qiu, you stinky loach, where did you get such a good thing from? Today’s attention had all been snatched away by you!”

Qiu Cheng Yun smiled arrogantly. “This is fate… honestly, this old man still does not understand what happened with this tree. Just last spring when this old man went out for a stroll and ended up encountering a heavy rain. I randomly found a cave to shelter from the rain. As I waited for the rain to stop, this old man suddenly felt that the stone under my foot that had a weight of ten thousand jin was actually moving… In a moment of curiosity, I bent down to lifted it to look at it. Who would have expected that it was two pieces of rocks sandwiched together. In the middle of those two rocks, was a small round hole, This little pine tree was growing in the middle. So, this old man dug it out and planted it. Who would have expected that it would come in handy today…”

He smiled proudly and stroked his beard: “Although this is not anything valuable, it can be considered a rare lifeform. So, this old man decided to bring it here as a gift for the Manor Lord to wish him a long life…”

Everyone surrounded Qiu Cheng Yun to look at the pine tree, as they stared at the rare tree.

Just as Qiu Cheng Yun was about to back down victoriously, he heard his own grandson Qiu Peng suddenly ask in a loud voice. “Today, all of us of the younger generation can be said to have gathered here to offer our birthday blessings to our Esteemed Manor Lord. This junior heard that the legendary Free and Natural Physique genius Mo Jun Ye is also here? I wonder what precious gift Brother Mo has prepared for the Manor Lord? This junior hopes that it will be an eye opening experience.”

When these words came out, it was not just the people in the hall that were stunned. Cao Guo Feng and the rest’s faces also turned green and red with rage. Even Qiu Peng’s grandfather Qiu Cheng Yun also had a mortified expression on his face. No matter what, he would not have expected that his own grandchild would interrupt and shout so loudly in such a setting!

With a single look, anyone with half a brain could tell that this sentence was meant to specifically target and make things difficult for that Great Prodigy Mo.

How had that Mo Jun Ye offended his grandson? But no matter what, now was not the time to pick a fight!? Especially on such a grand occasion where all the elders of the Misty Illusory Manor was gathered… regardless of how this turned out, it would still become a stain for his Qiu Family…

Besides, was that Free and Natural Physique lad… so easy to offend? Even if he was able to embarrass the latter today, what about in the future? That kid was destined to become a huge figure in the Misty Illusory Manor in the future. To offend him today meant that the Qiu Family would gain a huge enemy that couldn’t be surmounted in the future!

In that moment, Qiu Cheng Yun’s rage rose to his head, and he lifted his hand, wanting to slap this little brat out of the hall.

Unexpectedly, once Qiu Peng finished speaking, the Manor Lord Miao Jing Yun actually laughed aloud and nodded. “Indeed, indeed, this old man is also interested to see what kind of surprises our peerless Free and Natural Physique prodigy has prepared for this old man today.”

The moment those words came out, everyone rubbed their eyes subconsciously and tapped their ears. Was that… really the Manor Lord speaking?

Qiu Peng was instantly delighted. He wasn’t a dumb person, and he had only spoken out of rashness and anger earlier. There was indeed some regret in his heart directly after he spoke, but now that the birthday ‘boy’ had also spoken, his words had indeed become ‘great words’ that coincided with the old man’s intentions. In that moment, he could not help but to feel more arrogant!

As he spoke, Miao Jing Yun’s eyes gleamed sinisterly as he thought to himself. Brat, I’ll let you behave wildly! I’ll see how you continue being stubborn! Today, this old man is determined to make you lose face! We’ll see how you get off the stage! If I don’t teach you a good lesson today, how can I vent the anger in my heart? Today, I’ll let you know that this old man is not dead…

“Grandfather! How can you do that?” Miao Xiao Miao protested loudly. “You knew that…” As she spoke to here, Jun Mo Xie cut her off.

Originally, Jun Mo Xie had been intending to use today’s celebration as an opportunity to give this old Miao a good surprise. Even if it’s doing a favor for Miao Qing Cheng or returning a gift to the Misty Illusory Manor. He had countless precious things inside his Hongjun Pagoda, and just randomly taking one out would easily cause the entire crowd to grow speechless with shock. As for a mere birthday gift, it was not an issue at all…

Seeing this old fellow behaving like this now, Jun Mo Xie suddenly felt like he did not quite want to take out his gift. But as he looked at the pleading expression on Miao Xiao Miao’s face as she looked at her grandfather, his heart could not help but to soften as he sighed. Forget it, this daddy will help that old man gain a bit of face today…
