Main Text Chapter 445 Welcoming

After two or three months of drifting on the sea, the ship with the lantern of Xixiu Xinggong finally arrived at the intersection of the sea areas of Zhenbingdian and Zhenyidian.

Miao Yi was calm on the surface, but he was extremely excited. He stood on the rooftop for a whole day, looking out. He was finally back! He was finally back alive!

"Brother! We are almost at your territory, get ready to disembark." Yan Beihong also went up to the rooftop and waved the jade tablet in his hand, which contained a sea chart.

It can be seen that Yan Beihong was also a little excited. His two personal maids were entrusted here.

The ship was almost moving along the coastline of the fairyland. According to the straight-line distance for easy return, he should have disembarked two days ago, but it was impossible for him to abandon his two women, so he naturally had to take them back, so he followed.

Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei also appeared on the rooftop. They were not yet at the place to disembark, but they were going to take a look at Miao Yi's territory, so they were also going to disembark in advance.

Miao Yi turned around and nodded. The four of them walked into the small house on the rooftop and said goodbye to the monk sent by the Xixiu Star Palace to escort the ship.

The other party did not say much, took out a jade tablet, and asked the four people to sign the document that had already delivered the four people.

After the procedures for him to go back and report were completed, the other party nodded expressionlessly and said, "Have a good trip!"

"Goodbye!" The four of them bowed and saluted together, and then left.

Going down to the deck, the four of them walked to the bow to wait. Miao Yi was familiar with this sea area. When he saw the dock of Donglai City, it was naturally time to disembark.

Not long after, seven or eight people appeared on the deck. Ye Xin was among them. Gu Sanzheng and Tan Lao had already disembarked five or six days ago, and it was not time for Ye Xin to disembark yet.

"Take care!" Everyone came over and bowed to see him off. After staying on the ship for so long, it was considered familiar.

"Take care!" Miao Yi and others returned the greeting.

"Ye Xin, do you want to sit in my territory?" Miao Yi made a joke to Ye Xin through voice transmission.

Ye Xin smiled slightly: "It's inconvenient!"

It's indeed inconvenient. There are her fellow disciples in Miao Yi's territory. What's the matter with her going back with Miao Yi? She can't explain it when the time comes.

After finally seeing the dock of Donglai City vaguely, Miao Yi and others bowed to everyone again and said goodbye. "Everyone! See you again if we are lucky!"

"See you!" Everyone bowed again.

Miao Yi secretly sent a voice transmission to Ye Xin again, "See you in the capital!"

Ye Xin replied through voice transmission: "See you in the capital!"

The so-called meeting in the capital is because Tang Jun explained when they came back. Let them come back and complete the handover in their respective territories before going to the capital. After meeting the Jun Envoy and getting reappointed, they will go to the new place to take office. And Ye Xin is also a member of Chenlu, including Gu Sanzheng and Tan Lao, so they will naturally meet again in the capital.

Miao Yi turned around and nodded slightly to Yan Beihong. Yan Beihong shouted loudly: "Let's go!"

The four of them jumped off the boat immediately. They ran all the way to the dock of Donglai City, and Ye Xin and others watched them go...

The dock of Donglai City has been temporarily blocked, and all kinds of ships are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving. On the wooden platform tower built on the dock, a monk standing on it to check the sea suddenly turned back, cast a spell and shouted loudly: "Here they come! People are coming!"

The dock immediately sounded a burst of footsteps, in the official room and the warehouse. A group of people ran out immediately, Qian'er and Xue'er ran in the front with their skirts lifted.

Wenfang followed behind to join in the fun. This woman stayed in Zhenhai Mountain for a month or two without leaving. She couldn't take care of the small business of the Nanxuancheng Chamber of Commerce. As long as she held the thigh of the big customer Miao, this year's task would be completed easily. It goes without saying which one to take care of. If someone else got there first, wouldn't it be regretful to death? Naturally, they had to guard it.

Yang Qing and others also came out, staring at the sea as they walked.

Qin Weiwei stared at the sea with a flickering look that was a little anxious.

Zhou Huan and the others looked unhappy, and suddenly felt very stressed.

These people had been waiting at the dock for a few days. Because they were not sure when Miao Yi would arrive, they estimated the time and waited here in advance.

A group of people gathered at the dock. As four figures rushed over the sea, Qian'er and Xue'er suddenly pointed at the sea and cheered: "It's the adults, it's the adults, the adults are back!"

"The adults are back!" Hongxiu and Hongfu also shook hands in surprise.

The four people who came on the waves flew onto the dock. Yang Qing's face was stern, and he looked at Fan Zichang beside him, because when he saw Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei landed, the ninth-grade blue lotus on his forehead disappeared. These two people turned out to be masters of the ninth-grade blue lotus!

And Miao Yi and Yan Beihong obviously have the same hobby. The lotus phantom showing their cultivation on their eyebrows has been concealed for a long time, making it look shameful.

Miao Yi swept his eyes over the people who greeted him, and was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect someone to come to pick him up.

Qian'er and Xue'er were so excited that they ran forward and bowed, "Qian'er and Xue'er welcome you, sir!"

"Hongxiu and Hongfu welcome you, sir!" Hongxiu and Hongfu bowed with red eyes. They didn't know about Yan Beihong's return in advance. Chenlu Capital was not interested in announcing other news. They didn't expect Yan Beihong to come back with Miao Yi. The two girls were so excited that they cried.

Miao Yi just smiled and nodded and stretched out his hand, indicating that he should stand up.

Yan Beihong laughed and opened his arms, hugged Hongxiu and Hongfu and spun them around twice before letting them go.

Zhou Huan and the other two changed their expressions slightly. They had offended each other before, and they didn't know the origin of the masters of Hongxiu and Hongfu. How could these two women hide in Zhenhai Mountain ten years ago?

The followers of Zhenhai Mountain, starting with Yan Xiu, saluted in unison and said, "Welcome to the mountain master!"

"No need to be polite!" Miao Yi raised his hand and swept his eyes across everyone's faces. His eyebrows slightly raised. The joy of being welcomed by everyone sank instantly. He found that some people who had been promoted before were standing at the back, while those who had been demoted stood in front to welcome them. The people of the three major sects stood up again.

However, he didn't say anything. He walked between Qian'er and Xue'er. The two women followed Miao Yi and went straight to Yang Qing like before.

"Miao Yi pays respect to the Lord of the Mansion!" Miao Yi walked in front of Yang Qing and saluted. Although he would become the Lord of the Mansion soon, that was a matter for the future. Things that have not been implemented cannot be taken seriously. After all, Yang Qing is still his superior now.

Yang Qing found that Miao Yi had changed. To be more precise, he was calm and composed in front of him. Although he was polite to him, he was so calm that he felt pressured. This was the momentum!

"Why bother with so much courtesy? Just come back. I knew you could come back alive, and you really lived up to my expectations!" Yang Qing personally held Miao Yi's elbow and helped him up, and then introduced Miao Yi to Fan Zichang, the steward of Zhenyi Temple.

Qin Weiwei, who was standing aside, saw the three of them being polite together. She wanted to come forward to say hello, but found that she was not qualified to interrupt for the time being.

"I wonder who these three are?" Yang Qing held Miao Yi's arm and asked Yan Beihong and the other two.

"They are all my close friends who lived and died together in the Xingxiu Sea Rebellion Suppression Association. This is Zhao Fei, the Lord of Baiyun Mansion in Dixing Palace, and this is..." Miao Yi immediately introduced the three people.

Yang Qing was shocked. He didn't expect that there were two Lords of the ninth rank of Qinglian among them. They were the same in status as him. In terms of cultivation, he was higher than him, so he didn't dare to be arrogant. He immediately let go of Miao Yi and went forward with Fan Zichang to greet him. They were at the same level and had a common language, so they communicated naturally.

Yan Beihong just perfunctorily said a few words. He was at a different level from these people. The official circle emphasized respect and inferiority. There was no need for him to force himself to join in the fun. He immediately went to the side to communicate with Hongxiu and Hongfu. Asked how they had been doing these years?

Speaking of things that were not convenient to say in public, the two women told him by voice transmission. Yan Beihong didn't know what the two women said. He sneered from time to time and swept his eyes coldly over everyone.

Yang Qing was watching all directions. After noticing the reactions of Yan Beihong and the two women, he raised his eyes and continued to communicate enthusiastically with Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei without making a sound.

The other mountain masters of the two mansions waited until Yang Qing stepped aside before they found an opportunity to gather around and bowed to Miao Yi. Regardless of whether they were insincere or not, they all congratulated Miao Yi on his safe return. It was just a formality. In fact, they didn't have much friendship.

Miao Yi naturally bowed and thanked them one by one.

"Brother, do you remember my sister?" Wenfang, who found an opportunity, suddenly popped up and said something.

Brother? Miao Yi was stunned, subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw that it was this woman, and asked in surprise: "Why are you here too?"

Is this human language? Wenfang's expression froze, and she rolled her eyes and said: "My sister came to greet you specially, don't you welcome me?"

Miao Yi immediately guessed what she wanted to do, and immediately said with a smile: "Welcome, welcome! Xue'er, help me greet her!" In his heart, he added, why are you here to make trouble now, can't you see that I am busy.

Wenfang was speechless, Qian'er and Xue'er smiled secretly.

Miao Yi turned around and continued to greet other mountain masters. When most of the mountain masters had been dismissed, Qin Weiwei stepped forward and stood in front of Miao Yi, smiling and saying, "You are back. Have you been well these years?"

Miao Yi politely bowed and said, "Master Qin is more elegant than before. Thank you for your concern."

This was too polite. Qin Weiwei was somewhat disappointed, but she also knew that it was not the time to reminisce in public, so she had to return the greeting.

Miao Yi took the time to look at his subordinates who did not dare to approach, nodded apologetically to Qin Weiwei, and suddenly turned around and said loudly, "Where is Jiang Yunlu, the master of Donglai Cave?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene instantly became much quieter. Most of the people in Zhenhai Mountain looked at each other. Jiang Yunlu, who was behind the crowd, was tangled, not knowing whether to stand up or not.

Miao Yi's eyes had actually swept to Jiang Yunlu, but he pretended not to see him and shouted again, "Where is Jiang Yunlu, the master of Donglai Cave?"

The whole place was quiet now. Yang Qing and Fan Zichang looked back at Miao Yi, and the two subconsciously looked at each other, but did not say anything.

"Could it be that I, the master of the mountain, have been gone for ten years and can no longer command you?" Miao Yi said coldly: "The master of Donglai Cave has not come out to answer. Do you want the master of the mansion to stand on the pier and bask in the sun?"

At this time, a person came up from the crowd, with an embarrassed face, and saluted: "Your subordinate Liu Xinggong greets the master of the mountain!"

Miao Yi said calmly: "I am looking for the master of Donglai Cave, why are you running out?"

Liu Xinggong's forehead was instantly covered with fine beads of sweat, and he replied with some difficulty: "Your subordinate is now the master of Donglai Cave!" (To be continued..)
