Chapter 1070: The Oath Banquet Began
Loud bells and ringings came from the gate named Might, stirring excitement into the listeners.
The palace gate was formally open for the oath banquet. Expensive carriages lined up to enter. The territory lords brought princes and princesses. City lords and ancestors from the immemorial clans came as well. Then there were sect masters…
“Dracomight Lord, you are always at the Myriad Battlefield, it is rare to see you.”
“Indeed, it’s been eight thousand years since we last saw each other at Skysoarer Island, Sword Lord. I see that you’re in the grand paragon realm now with an increasingly profound sword intent, how enviable.”
“Hahaha, isn’t that the famous Rain Princess? She’s so gorgeous, no wonder why she’s top three in our dynasty. She might be searching for a suitable groom in the banquet.”
The oath banquet was a serious event but old friends still chatted about personal matters and cultivation.
Feiyun was already prepared and came out of Auspicious Palace. He stretched and felt a bit fatigued after fighting day and night yesterday.
He put on an expressive robe and looked rather gallant. He walked down the path and everyone greeted him.
“Sir Feng, your feats yesterday might make the princesses and golden daughters go crazy.” Xiao Bailang came over to greet him.
The two walked together and saw the people from Crimson entering the palace. Liu Suzi in her signature purple climbed down a beautiful carriage.
She dressed femininely this time, revealing her long and slender figure. The moment she came down, a group of prodigies surrounded and walked behind her.
Anyone else who dared to get close was pushed back. She was the moon surrounded by the stars.
“This tomboy has that many fans? How strange.” Feiyun looked over and became surprised.
“The seventh princess of Crimson is also its successor. I’d heard her title before but didn’t know that she is so beautiful. She became famous in a short time and might be overshadowing the other beauties. I wonder why she wasn’t as well-known before.” Xiao Bailang said.
Feiyun chuckled in response. This was because she was always crossdressing so people overlooked her beauty.
‘Why is she changing her personality?’ Feiyun found this rather strange.
Liu Suzi saw Feiyun and headed over. Her long hair draped down to her waist and her outfit was dazzling. The prodigies still accompanied her.
“Greetings, Seventh Princess.” Xiao Bailang bowed his head, noticed that something was off about this atmosphere, and left right away.
“I knew you look better in women’s clothes.” Feiyun smiled.
“A servant shouldn’t be so impudent.” Liu Suzi didn’t appreciate it.
“I’m your brother-in-law, not a servant.” Feiyun smiled.
“You were no longer one of us the moment you deserted. We are not related.” Liu Suzi snorted.
“Just like that?” Feiyun rubbed his nose. He didn’t want to leave that early but due to the circumstances in the treasury, he has been missing and couldn’t come back.
Liu Suzi assumed that he had abandoned them to join the Azure Faction, hence her distaste.
“Brat, the seventh princess has made it clear. Don’t be courting death now.” A prince from another faction glared at him.
“Who the hell are you?” Feiyun glared back at him.
“I am the first prince of Eastwatch, that’s who the hell I am.” The prince was annoyed and summoned a weapon, wanting to cripple Feiyun.
“First Prince, no need to stoop to that half-demon’s level, let us go.” Suzi smirked at Feiyun before waving her hand and leaving. Her entourage followed right behind her.𝑓𝔯𝘦e𝘸e𝘣𝘯𝘰ѵe𝘭.c૦𝓶
Feiyun stroked his chin and watched her depart, not understanding why she decided to antagonize him.
“Feng Feiyun, your little sister-in-law is hanging out with other men, are you jealous?” Bi Ningshuai got out from under the table and tapped Feiyun’s shoulder.
“You were invited?” Feiyun asked.
“Uhh… I climbed the wall, so did my grandpa, he’s over there… where the hell is he? I saw him eating earlier.” Ningshuai looked around and couldn’t find the old man. He only saw Heaven Calculating Scholar, Formless, and Dongfang Jingshui.
He pulled Feiyun away to another area and said: “Don’t let them see us.”
“Still hiding from Xie Honglian?” Feiyun chuckled.
“Shh! They didn’t bring me along to this important event so I had to sneak in.” He said.
“It’s the right choice, who would bring a thief like you to something so crucial?”
“Please, don’t insult me, your sister-in-law didn’t bring you along either. How about this, we should go flirt with some other girls.” Ningshuai retorted.
“I don’t have time for that.” Feiyun waved at two beauties.
The young princess and Orchid Princess walked over and Ningshuai’s jaw dropped to the ground.
‘Isn’t Orchid one of the three beauties of Sacred Court?’ Ningshuai had nothing but respect for Feiyun. How the hell did he get all these girls?
Others became envious after seeing Feiyun with them as well. Everyone knew these two princesses and wondered why they were hanging around with a half-demon.
Liu Suzi who was talking to the princes heard clamoring. She looked over and sure enough, Feiyun was sitting down and drinking with Orchid Princess with a beaming smile.
She clenched her fist and walked over: “Half-demon, why are you bothering Orchid Princess? I thought you didn’t like women.”
“We’re just chatting, I don’t appreciate your rudeness.” Feiyun said and held Orchid Princess’ snow-white hand: “You have beautiful fingers.”
“Feng Feiyun, are you tired of living? This oath banquet is just a facade, Azure Lord wants to take over today and when that happens, there will be nothing holding him back. He will kill all royal members. Everyone is trying to stay away from them yet you are trying to flirt with these two princesses?” She communicated telepathically.
“The coronation won’t happen.” Feiyun responded.
“That’s not up for you to decide.” She said with disappointment, thinking that he was being too careless.
“Trust me.” He smirked.
She gritted her teeth and snorted before waving her sleeve in frustration and leaving.
Feiyun’s eyes became serious as he let go of Orchid Princess’ hand. He whispered: “Tell your royal members to not do anything today or they’ll throw their lives away for no reason.”
She shook her head: “It’s too late, some of them have already snuck into the banquet with different identities.”
The Long still had a secretive organization. She was one of them.
“Screw it then.” Feiyun stood up and walked with Ningshuai to a corner. He presented the ruler’s seal to him.
Ningshuai accepted it and felt its immense weight. He knew that this was a priceless treasure and became emotional: “Brother, this tripod is exceptional, it must be a great treasure.”
“Yeah, it’s the ruler’s seal of Sixth Central.” Feiyun nonchalantly said.
Ningshuai nearly fell to the ground and said: “... You are so brave, Brother Feng. I, on the other hand, am not worthy of this treasure, haha, but if you insist on giving it to me, I suppose I can keep it.”
Feiyun shook his head: “Take this seal back to the treasury and give it to Divine Guardian, tell them that the lord of Sacred Court has ordered for them to come out.”
Ningshuai’s hands shook violently and thought that Feiyun was screwing him over. He said with a serious tone: “I am not worthy of this treasure.”
He tried to return the seal but Feiyun pushed his hand back: “Everyone is looking for it right now and here you are, in possession of it. If Azure Faction knows that you’re the thief, I can’t imagine what they’ll do to you, sigh.”
“Motherfucker! You gave it to me!” Ningshuai felt the urge to throw the seal at the ground but restrained himself.
“I’m not a member of the great Thief Gate, how could I have stolen it?” Feiyun smirked.
