Chapter 398: Palace Banquet
Because of Gu Xiaotian and Renault's outstanding talents, they successfully sensed the power of the Seven Stars, and Ao Yi was ecstatic and reported the matter to the Emperor of the Qinglong Kingdom. The Qing Emperor was also overjoyed, and held a banquet to celebrate, along with the other Seven Star Holy Sons' respective families and courtiers.
On the one hand, this move is to congratulate the Divine Dragon Sect, and on the other hand, it is also to promote the national prestige of the Qinglong Kingdom and further strengthen the momentum. As soon as the news came out, the entire imperial capital was a sensation, and all the families who received the news of participating in the banquet were honored, and their influence rose.
Ye Canaan told Gu Lanyi the news, and Gu Lanyi could finally see his son justifiably, and immediately agreed to go to the banquet. Night Canaan has the body of the dragon divine wind, and he is also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Green Dragon Kingdom, so he will naturally participate.
At dusk, the seven Holy Sons headed to the palace under the leadership of Sect Master Ao Yi and several elders of the Divine Dragon Sect.
Knowing that this palace banquet was set up because of themselves, the seven holy sons were in different moods, and they kept chattering along the way, such as Meng Hongyu.
As the eldest grandson of the Meng family, one of the four great families of the Qinglong Kingdom, Meng Hongyu and Sun Wei became the Seven Star Holy Sons, and they were both proud, and kept asking along the way.
"Elder Mu, my father and mother are really here for the banquet later, what's the program, I heard that Your Majesty is going to give us a reward?"
Elder Mu replied one by one, his attitude was very gentle: "Not really. Hongyu, Xiao Wei, the sect master has already informed your family, and you will be able to see your father and mother when you enter the palace. Tonight is a rare opportunity, usually you have to cultivate, tonight is a special situation, you can meet your parents well. ”
"As for Your Majesty's reward......"
Elder Mu smiled: "You are all the holy sons of my Divine Dragon Sect, and you are the future pillars of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, Your Majesty has naturally prepared gifts for you in order to encourage you, including your family, all of whom are rewarded." ”
"That's great! My dad would definitely praise me. Meng Hongyu was very excited, and his face turned red with a smile.
"It's really unproductive, I'm happy to be praised by my father, haven't you been praised before?"
Suddenly, Qiu Ze, one of the Holy Sons, spoke, with a faint sarcasm in his tone.
He is the eldest grandson of Prime Minister Qinglong Guowen, nine years old this year, and naturally knows Sun Wei and Meng Hongyu. But I hardly talk to them when I usually cultivate, and occasionally say a few words to Long Jingrou, who is mature like a little adult, very arrogant.
"It turned out to be you, Qiu Ze. ”
Sun Wei glanced at him and said with a sneer: "I heard that because you became a holy son, the Qiu family has already held a feast for three days, and invited all the relatives and friends you know in your family. Qiu Ze, aren't you Qiu family just as excited?"
Qiu Ze was dumbfounded: "That...... That's my mom and dad's business, and I don't know. ”
Listening to the words of the other children, Bai Yu was as silent as ever.
The other children already knew Bai Yu's family background, coming from a small family, if it weren't for Bai Yu, almost no one would have paid attention to this Bai family. If it was another situation, maybe Bai Yu would still be as brilliant as the stars and the moon, but among the Seven Star Holy Sons, the other children either had outstanding family backgrounds, or didn't mind at all like Gu Xiaotian, with a cheerful personality and the highest talent, no one would look at Bai Yu differently at all.
Knowing that he had a task, Bai Yu was even more cautious, lest he would lose too much talk, and he would become more and more silent, out of place with other children. Even though Ao Yi and the other elders intended to let him merge with the others, Bai Yu was too cautious, except for cultivation, he stayed alone, and after a long time, Ao Yi was not reluctant.
On the way to the palace, Gu Xiaotian originally glanced at Bai Yu and wanted to talk to him, but Bai Yu still ignored it, for fear that Gu Xiaotian would notice something, his expression was light, and Gu Xiaotian didn't bother to pay attention to him.
"Hey, Renault, your family will be here tonight, right?"
"They don't come. Renault glanced at Gu Xiaotian and said lightly.
Gu Xiaotian was suddenly surprised, according to the rules of the sect, it was usually difficult for their Seven Star Holy Sons to see their family members, and he could only talk to his mother occasionally through the sound transmission conch. But why didn't Renault's family show up in this situation?
Don't you like Renault, or is there some special reason......
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaotian felt more and more that Renault's family background was mysterious.
Squeezing his eyes, Gu Xiaotian looked at Renault: "Your home, shouldn't it be in the Qinglong Kingdom?"
It is only possible that because of this, the talents of the Lei family are too late or inconvenient to come to the banquet, otherwise the Seven Star Holy Son is so sensational, and no matter how low-key the people of the Lei family are, they are afraid that they will also be found out by other forces, and it is impossible to know nothing.
Renault's eyes moved, he didn't expect Gu Xiaotian to guess it, but he would never admit it.
"It doesn't matter if you're there, it doesn't matter anyway. ”
Looking at Gu Xiaotian, Renault said in a deep voice: "You still have to think about how to defeat me later, otherwise the First Holy Son will be mine." ”
"Don't worry, I'll do my best, I won't let you. Gu Xiaotian nodded, revealing a confident smile.
Listening to the two of them, Situ Fei'er's eyes flashed with light.
She is the only girl among the Seven Star Holy Sons, and she is seven years old this year. is also the granddaughter of the head of the Situ family, one of the four great families, and her identity is similar to Meng Hongyu. It's just that her appearance is not as beautiful as Long Jingrou, and her personality is not so cheerful, so she hardly talks along the way, but her eyes almost glance at Gu Xiaotian and Renault.
I don't know if Gu Xiaotian or Renault won, she is looking forward to it.
Soon arrived at the palace, which was already full of people from various families, and as soon as they saw Ao Yi coming with the holy sons, the heads of each family immediately stepped forward and picked up their children. Under special circumstances tonight, Ao Yi also had the children reunited with their families and let them talk freely.
Mrs. Meng hugged Meng Hongyu and was overjoyed, and praised for a long time, even though the head of the Meng family was usually serious and silent, he still had a happy face when he saw Meng Hongyu, and encouraged him a few words.
The other Sun Wei and Qiu Ze's families are similar, especially Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Qiu, although the two families have similar family backgrounds, they usually don't have much contact, and now their respective sons are among the dragons and phoenixes, which inevitably has the meaning of competition.
Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Qiu were pretending to be polite a few times, but there was a little arrogance in their eyes when they looked at each other.
Bai Yu's family also came, and Bai Wenshan, the head of the Bai family, was out of place in a group of dignitaries, constantly flattering and having, and had no demeanor at all. But the Bai family was originally just a small family, and he knew the true situation of his son, so he had no confidence in his heart, and he spoke a lot quieter.
The most eye-catching is still Gu Lanyi and Gu Xiaotian.
Long Shenfeng accompanied Gu Lanyi to come, and it can be seen that her identity is almost a certainty that she is already the future princess of the Qinglong Kingdom. And Gu Xiaotian's matter was roughly told to his family by other children.
"The two of them are the ones who sensed the power of the seven stars?"
"What a genius this is to sense the power of the seven stars so quickly...... "It's obviously much more powerful than your own children!"
All the people of the family secretly looked at Gu Xiaotian and Renault, but saw that Gu Xiaotian only had his mother Gu Lanyi coming, and as for Renault, he was even more alone, looking like an orphan, which attracted everyone's secret surprise.
"Son, come to my mother to see if she has become powerful. ”
Gu Lanyi pulled his son to look left and right, with a cute little face, round black eyes, and a young face that looked like her for five points, and a night Brahma for five points, how to look at it and like it.
Gu Xiaotian leaned into Gu Lanyi's ear and whispered, "Mother, I really feel the power of the wind...... That Renault, what he felt was the power of fire. ”
Which is more powerful, the power of fire or the power of wind? Gu Xiaotian didn't quite understand, and secretly asked Gu Lanyi.
Only then did Gu Lanyi know that his son and another child named Renault were going to compete to see who was more powerful, and there was a real showdown. Moreover, at tonight's palace banquet, Ao Yi will also let the Seven Star Holy Sons show their strength, focusing on the strength of the Divine Dragon Sect and the ability to cultivate reserves.
Gu Lanyi didn't care about the Divine Dragon Sect, but he was a little interested in his son's opponent.
Renault?Gu Lanyi really hadn't heard Long Shenfeng talk about the situation of the Lei family, it was so mysterious, there must be some origin.
And the kid ......
Gu Lanyi's eyes moved and fell on the little boy with an indifferent expression and outstanding bearing. At the age of about six years old, he is about the same age as his son Gu Xiaotian, and he is not much taller, but that detached temperament, even if he is alone in the face of many powerful people, and he is still a child, this is very rare.
It seems that my son has met a strong opponent.
"The power of wind, the power of fire, in fact, there is no strength or weakness, if you want to decide the winner, it is nothing more than to see the use of one's own ability. Gu Lanyi thought for a while, and used what he knew to his son to stir it up: "Fire borrows the wind, it can even set the prairie on fire, Xiaotian, your wind power is compliant for him and helps him." But the wind is too strong, but it can extinguish the fire, so it's up to you how you use it. ”
"And...... When I tried against Renault, I didn't say that it must be the power of wind and fire, and you will have others. As long as you are unprepared, my mother believes that you will definitely win him. Gu Lanyi's smile was meaningful.
"Surprise and unprepared?" Gu Xiaotian muttered, as if he understood something, and a flash of light flew away in his eyes.
Soon, everyone arrived at the palace where the palace banquet was held, and they were seated one by one. The hall suddenly became lively, and after a few words of praise and encouragement from the Qing Emperor, all the families were honored and excited.
The rewards prepared by the Qingdi for the families are also extraordinarily rich, obviously in order to reward these families, for the purpose of wooing, after the heads of the families are grateful, the audience is even more into the climax of the atmosphere, the music sounds, the singing and dancing are leveled, and the palace banquet is becoming more and more lively.
"You are all here tonight, so in front of everyone, this sect master has decided to elect the First Holy Son. ”
At this moment, Ao Yi stood up and motioned to the Qing Emperor: "Your Majesty has also agreed, those who can become the first holy son can not only be fully cultivated by the Divine Dragon Sect, but also become a contemptible personal disciple." ”
Become Ao Yi's personal disciple?!
When everyone heard this, they were moved, because they knew what it meant.
Every Sect Master of the Divine Dragon Sect is a personal disciple of the previous Sect Master, that is to say, the first Holy Son of the waiting meeting is the future Sect Master of the Divine Dragon Sect!
