Volume 1: Twilight of the Moon Chapter 51: Celebration of the Occasion (5) – A high-level gathering
I have to say that this grand dinner is definitely an excellent opportunity for the leaders of the tribes of the Orc Empire to meet, whether it is a hostile tribe or an allied race, the orcs in the entire hall are all happy at the moment. This seemingly harmonious, but in fact undercurrent scene in front of him is too familiar to Yi Tian, isn't this the case with Granton in the past? It seems that even in the alien race, he cannot escape rights and interests.
At this time, the hall seemed to usher in a new guest, the eldest prince Yue Hao in military uniform appeared in the hall, obviously the orc leaders present did not expect the legendary beast border guardian god to appear here, they were all a little stunned, and only Lichel greeted him with a smile.
"Sure enough, the purpose of coming back this time is not simple. Looking at Yue Hao and Lezer, who were whispering on the side, Yi Tian also muttered to himself.
In the hall, in the face of the fragrant food in front of her, Yixue finally couldn't resist the temptation to eat and drink.
"Yixue!" The fox girl who was still gobbling up her whole body froze after hearing this familiar voice, and everything buried deep in her heart slowly emerged, could it really be ............
The simple gray robe, the emaciated body, and the gray hair, looking at the old man in front of him who had entered his old age, the tears that had been hidden in his heart for more than ten years could no longer be suppressed at this moment.
"It's been so many years, I've come to the celebration every year, but I've never seen you......" The elder of the fox clan choked up when he said this, "It's been more than ten years, every day I think of you who are far away in the imperial capital, and every time I think of it, I will regret it, I really shouldn't have piled the burden of the entire clan on your young shoulders, and let you suffer such pain at such a young age.................." Speaking of this, the old man had already burst into tears, and many years of regret broke out at this moment, and the selfish decision completely changed the life of the girl in front of him.
"Father!!!" Yi Xue hugged the old man in front of her, and finally said the words that had been hidden in her heart for more than ten years, maybe she was ruthless, or she had forgotten it in this long time, but from this moment on, Yi Xue finally learned to face it, learned to forgive her old father, and learned to understand the hardships of the survival of a weak race.
Yi Tian walked out of the hall, and the scene just now made Yi Tian also feel emotional, yes! Yi Xue finally recognized her father and cleared up the misunderstanding, what about herself? I have been in the beast clan for more than a year, I have experienced many difficulties and made many friends, and the life of the captive is not as bad as I expected before.
It's been a year, is my father okay? Has Your Majesty embarrassed his family again......... Yuelun! The heartbreak before parting seems to be still in front of me at this moment, it is you who have supported me until now, maybe you are still stupidly waiting for me to come back, don't worry! It's not far away.....................
Leaning on the railing, Yi Tian overlooked the entire Beast Emperor City, the imperial city at night has been lit up with colorful and dazzling colors at this moment, the main road of the imperial city is crowded with orcs watching the performance, the noise of the sky resounded throughout the city, and at this moment the atmosphere has reached the peak of the orcs began to cheer and began to cheer, presumably another wonderful program is about to begin.
"Beast people, thank you for participating in this festival!" a powerful voice echoed through the Beast Emperor City with the help of sound transmission magic.
Yi Tian was also shocked in vain, this is not ...............
On the sixth floor of Yi Tian's oblique side, a Beamon royal family wearing a dark gold coat was making a generous statement, and Yi Tian was also afraid of his unangry and arrogant momentum, and it seemed that the last event of the celebration was the speech of the Beast Emperor.
Yi Tian originally thought that he would be very calm when he saw the Beast Emperor again after seeing him a year ago, and he would never have the same uncontrollable fear as last time, but the reality slapped himself hard, not only did he not have a trace of calmness, but he didn't even have the courage to take a closer look at the Beast Emperor, maybe now the strength he was proud of was just a straw in front of the Beast Emperor.
Yi Tian silently retreated into the corridor, avoiding the Beast Emperor's pressing momentum, and just as he wanted to go back to the hall to fill his rumbling belly, he was stopped by Yi Xue.
"I said why didn't I see you all night, it turned out that I was hiding here alone!"
"Huh, where's your father?" Yi Tian was curious that Yixue was alone.
Yi Xue pursed her lips to the side, "The Beast Emperor is speaking, and he, as the patriarch of the fox clan, will definitely listen." ”
"Oh yes, how did I forget about it. Yi Tian flashed into the hall as he spoke, and sure enough, most of them went to the sixth floor except for a few noble teenagers.
"Looks like we can finally have a good meal!" Yi Tian said excitedly.
Yi Xue glanced at her, "Why didn't you eat it just now!"
"Cut, so many tribal leaders are too restrained just now, you think I'm like you! I don't care about my image when I see food!" Yi Tian didn't forget to damage Yixue while eating.
"Look at your starving ghost reincarnation, choke you to death!" Yi Xue walked to the side angrily, and when she came back, she handed Yi Tian an extra drink in her hand, "Here!"
Yi Tian didn't expect Yi Xue to go to get a drink just now and was stunned, "So kind, it won't be a laxative for me!"
"Yi Tian, tell you something I just saw. Yixue God mysteriously pulled Yi Tian aside, "I saw the Grand Prince and the Commander of the Lixel sneaking into the back hall!"
It's really the speaker who doesn't want to listen to the intention, Yi Tian is a spirit, it seems that the purpose of the eldest prince coming to the dinner party is to plot something with Richelle.
"Yixue, you immediately go to the sixth floor and tell the third prince what you just saw. ”
"What about you?" Yixue was curious as to why Yi Tian suddenly said that.
"I'll tell you if nothing happens after the dinner. Yi Tian pretended to be mysterious and said.
"Hmph, it's so mysterious. Yi Xue also reluctantly walked to the sixth floor, after all, the shadow of her childhood made Yi Xue have a strong fear of the Beast Emperor.
..........................................
Yi Tian opened the door in the corner, compared to the bright lights of the banquet hall, the endless path in front of him was pitch black, Yi Tian groped and finally reached the end of the road, and a dark golden wooden door appeared in front of Yi Tian's eyes. Yi Tian approached step by step, but when he touched it, a strong magical energy turned him away, and it was miserable!
The wooden door was immediately opened, and Yuehao and Lizer appeared in front of them,
"Isn't this a guest of my third brother's house!, why are you here?" Yue Hao said with a smile, while a middle-aged orc in a dark red robe on the other side didn't look so calm, and there was a trace of anger between his eyebrows when he learned that the young man in front of him was Yi Tian.
"Uh......... Would you believe me if I said I accidentally found this here to find a toilet?" Yi Tian also looked not embarrassed, anyway, the matter has come to this.
"Hahahaha!! why don't you believe it? Unfortunately, there isn't one here, and the slanted door on the left side of the hall is where you're looking. The eldest prince still looks like he is not smiling.
"Then I'll thank you first, and I won't bother you. With that, Yi Tian turned around and disappeared at the end of the path as fast as he could, until the dark power gathered by Yi Tian's right hand when he returned to the banquet hall slowly dissipated.
"Why let him go, he saw it all. The middle-aged orc looked at Yi Tian who had disappeared into the darkness and was a little angry.
"Do you want me to kill him?"
"He will definitely tell the third prince about our plan when he goes back now, and he will ............... when the time comes."
"There is an enchantment outside the door, it is impossible for him to hear what we say, at most he just sees me with you, is it just to kill a little hairy boy for this? Do you know in your heart how much the third brother values this little hairy child, what do you think the third brother will do if he kills him, do you understand?" Yue Hao didn't expect that Lizer, who was the commander of the Guards, would be so short-sighted, and he was also quite disappointed.
.......................................
As soon as he returned to the banquet hall, he saw that the three princes and his party were waiting for him, Yi Tian was also quite surprised, he thought that he would not be able to see him until the banquet was over, and it seemed that he was also quite important in the eyes of the three princes.
"How's the investigation going?" the third prince also asked bluntly.
"I didn't find anything for the time being, but as soon as I got there, they found me, and then the eldest prince asked me to come back. ”
"What! was discovered by the eldest brother, and even let you come back!!" The third prince didn't expect things to end so dramatically.
"After all, this is under the nose of the Beast Emperor, and they don't dare to act rashly. ”
At this time, the old prophet underestimated a few words in the ear of the third prince, "In this case, let's go back and talk about it, father, then I can't leave for too long." With that, the third prince left the banquet hall quickly.
As soon as the third prince left, Yi Xue threw herself into Yi Tian's arms and kept beating Yi Tian, "Why didn't you tell me what to do, do you know how worried I am about you, just now I still heard Brother Yueyan say that I only knew, why didn't you tell me! Why didn't you tell ........................me?"
Looking at Yixue, who was already crying into tears in his arms, Yi Tian was also very sad, "Alas, it's not to tell you so that you don't worry about me, this kind of thing can't let you get involved anymore, you have sacrificed so much for me, I can't let you be hurt anymore." ”
"You're a fool, Itian, you're a big fool, a big fool.................."
※※※※※※※※※※※※
Brilliant fireworks soared into the sky, crossing a bright arc in the night sky, and the beast city at night was jubilant at the moment, and the festival finally came to an end in the sound of joy.
The Beast Emperor Tower was empty at the moment, leaving only a red-robed figure standing at the top, looking at the many nobles who were slowly dispersed, revealing a sinister smile.
"Since I can't kill you today, one day you will pay for your actions. ”
※※※※※※※※※※※※
The autumn wind is blowing, and the beast city in winter is also quite cold, although the orcs have thick fur to protect themselves from the wind and cold, but for the human boy Yi Tian, this place is simply hell! In the past, every winter, my father would bake his bedroom with a charcoal fire, but now? Where do the orcs go to find a charcoal fire for heating? Does this rhythm want to chill me to death? Although I am wrapped in several strips of fur, I can't resist the cold air at all!!!
It has been two weeks since the end of the festival celebration, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the opening of the Royal Academy has come again, and this day Yixue pulled Yi Tian, who was still wrapped in thick fur, to the academy early.
"My eldest lady, why are you coming so early in the cold!!" Yi Tian grumbled as he snorted.
"Today is a good day for you to enter the sixth grade, of course you have to come early!"
Yi Tian gasped, "What's the matter, why didn't you skip a grade again after only a year!"
"Last year was supposed to be the first semester of the fifth grade, who made you so good to be promoted to the fifth grade before the end of the course!
"Oh my God!!!!!"
