Douluo: I loaded the Odyssey Kayn voice pack
Chapter 512 Palace Night Banquet (Part 2)
At night, the palace was still as bright as day.
It was a lighting soul guide handed down from the ancient Douluo Continent civilization. It only needed a steady stream of soul power from soul masters to keep this light going.
This palace, which symbolizes the highest power and wealth of the Tiandou Empire, is so magnificent tonight. The twelve-meter-high dome is painted with thick and colorful murals. The murals seem to be telling ancient epics, which were the earliest days of the Tiandou Empire. The origin of.
These epics are as difficult to study as the legends that created the world, but the founding emperor of the Tiandou Empire ordered craftsmen to draw them, and then embellished them with countless gems, intending to make these epics as bright as gems for eternity.
However, as time goes by, no one cares about the origin of the Tiandou Empire. The Xue family of the Tiandou royal family, who once built this great empire with their supreme power, is now just a weak family that hopes to rule the empire with the strength of outsiders.
Even gems will become dim one day; even stars will turn into dust in the universe one day.
Before walking into the middle hall where the dinner was held, Lu Yuan smiled slightly and let go of Ning Rongrong's little hand that he had been holding.
Ning Rongrong was a little surprised, but then Lu Yuan stretched out his arms to Ning Rongrong.
"Let's go, my respected madam." Lu Yuan said with a smile.
Ning Rongrong understood immediately, smiled and took Lu Yuan's arm in the etiquette manner of an aristocratic woman.
They continued to move forward. At this time, several palace attendants saw this and hurriedly walked towards them. The first one and the other attendants bowed directly to them and saluted, "I have met Tian Yinggong and Miss Ning."
"Please go this way."
Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong nodded and directly followed the guidance of the palace attendants to the middle hall where the dinner was held.
In the gorgeous dinner hall, the space is extremely spacious. The space of three to four hundred square meters is decorated with complex patterns, gorgeous gems and gold, except for the huge emblem of a stretched swan hanging on the rear wall.
In the center of the hall, there is a long table with an area of at least 150 square meters. On the long table is a much larger white luxurious long cloth made of silk and embroidered gold threads as a tablecloth. In the center of the long table are rows of fine vases with bright red roses.
Around the long table, there are mahogany dining tables and chairs distributed one after another. It even seems to be very particular about placing some dining tables and chairs slightly closer, while others are some distance apart. One seat is even isolated from other tables and chairs. Always keep a distance.
At this time, not only Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong had arrived, but also a dozen imperial nobles and important ministers whom they were quite familiar with appeared here.
Among them were Ning Fengzhi, Gu Douluo, Ge Long, Andrew, Shi Shan and other people who were extremely close to Lu Yuan, and like Lu Yuan, they all appeared here holding an indescribably precious lady on their arms.
Except for Ning Fengzhi, Gu Douluo, and Andrew, who did not have wives or whose wives had passed away, they basically brought their wives to the dinner.
Liehuo Hou Yanxian is more unique. His wife also died young, but this time he brought his daughter Yan Zhuyin to the dinner.
Yan Zhuyin also took off his military uniform, washed up, and wore a soft red aristocratic dress. Her long red hair was tied into a high bun, and she appeared in the dinner hall. She looked exactly like Ning Rongrong beside Lu Yuan. Can't tell the difference between high and low.
Yan Zhuyin looked at Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong, looking at the two of them holding arms, looking so well matched, and their beautiful eyes dimmed a little.
However, Ning Rongrong caught her gaze and looked at her.
Yan Zhuyin suddenly panicked, but Ning Rongrong just smiled at her.
This is also the reason why the tables and chairs next to the dining table are arranged in this way. It seems that Emperor Xueye also knows the situation of each family very well. Presumably, like Andrew, if his wife died early and no one else in the family was invited to the dinner, he would sit there On the dining chair that looks relatively lonely.
Immediately afterwards, King Quinsim of the Balak Kingdom appeared in the hall a little behind Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong.
"Grand Duke Tianying..." The moment Quinsim saw Lu Yuan, his eyes lit up and he came to Lu Yuan to say hello, "And Miss Ning..."
Lu Yuan nodded quickly and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, there is no need to be so polite. Just call me by my real name."
Ning Rongrong just smiled and nodded without saying anything else.
"Duke Tianying, Miss Ning..." At this time, Marquis Senluo, Marquis Liehuo and others also hurriedly came forward to say hello.
"There's no need to be so outspoken, Uncle Yan, Uncle Yi, and Grandpa Shi. Today is a dinner party invited by His Majesty, and it's not on the battlefield." Lu Yuan smiled slightly and said, "We can just address each other according to our seniority. You can just call us My real name is fine."
"In that case, I will be disrespectful." Yan Xian said with a slight smile.
Then he looked at Yan Zhuyin, who was silent beside him, and said helplessly, "Zhu Yin, this is your comrade who fights side by side, why don't you say anything when you meet someone?"
Yan Zhuyin looked at Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong and pursed their lips, about to say something.
At this moment, Ning Rongrong let go of Lu Yuan's arm, took Yan Zhuyin's hand, and said with a smile, "Zhu Yin's character has always been like this, and after all, Uncle Yan and you elders are here, I'm afraid it won't That’s so nice to say.”
"Come on, Zhu Yin, let's talk together, two girls."
Lu Yuan and Yan Xian were stunned for a moment. Ning Rongrong glanced at Lu Yuan and said, "My Lord Duke, you won't blame me, the little girl."
Lu Yuan touched his nose helplessly, "How could I be that kind of person?"
"That's good." Ning Rongrong immediately pulled Yan Zhuyin and walked to the other side, talking and laughing with Yan Zhuyin as they walked.
It seemed like two girls were chatting happily together.
Lu Yuan looked at Yan Xian, Shi Shan and others again. Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo walked over slowly at this time.
"I've met Sect Leader Ning and Lord Bone Douluo." Yan Xian, Shi Shan, and Ilusen greeted politely.
"Fengzhi has met all the generals." Ning Fengzhi was used to being greeted like this, and then responded politely.
Bone Douluo also stroked his beard and nodded, which was considered a response.
"Dad, grandpa." Lu Yuan also shouted.
Bone Douluo was quite close to Lu Yuan. He laughed and said, "After your battle, Xiao Yuan, you are completely famous on the mainland."
"It doesn't matter whether you're famous or not. What's important is to serve the country." Lu Yuan said with a smile, "All I want is for the empire to be stable, the sect to be safe, and dad, Grandpa Bone, Grandpa Jian, Dad Mom, you can live a long and healthy life."
Of course, there are some things he also wants that are not stated here.
Ning Fengzhi said with a smile, "Xiaoyuan, you and Rongrong have grown up. Once this period of time is over, I can safely leave the sect to you for retreat."
Lu Yuan, Shi Shan and others were stunned for a moment. Lu Yuan asked, "Dad, are you..."
"Yes... but I am still at the level of eighty-eighth soul power. It is not yet time to retreat, but it will be soon, in a few years..." Ning Fengzhi said with emotion, "Wait until then , after I can completely leave the affairs of the sect to you and Rongrong, it will be almost the same, and then I can feel at ease to attack the realm of my Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda Spirit Master that has never been reached before."
He chuckled and said, "No matter whether it succeeds or not, Rongrong will be able to find a way out, and she will be prepared when she enters the realm of Titled Douluo in the future."
Before this, there had never been a powerful Titled Douluo among the direct descendants of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect. Although he was one of the top three sects, he could only rely on other people's Titled Douluo.
Fortunately, the founder of the Qibao Glazed Sect was very knowledgeable and relied on all the previous Supreme Elders who were dedicated to the Qibao Glazed Sect and never turned against him.
That's why the Qibao Glazed Sect can achieve its current glory, but the direct disciples have always been restricted by the flaws of the martial soul and cannot break through the realm of titled Douluo. This has always been the knot of the successive masters of the Qibao Glazed Sect.
Now that Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong have received the fairy grass given by Lu Yuan, the original Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda of Martial Spirits has been upgraded to the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda, no longer restricted by the defects of Martial Spirits.
They can also be promoted to the realm above the Soul Saint. However, this realm above the Soul Saint is an unknown territory for the original direct line soul masters of the Qibao Glazed Sect.
Contra may be better, it's not a difficult threshold.
However, the Titled Douluo realm, as the last realm in the soul master system, is not so easy to cross, especially since the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect soul masters have no previous experience summarized by their predecessors.
However, Lu Yuan smiled softly and said to Ning Fengzhi, "Dad, don't worry. It will be easy for Rongrong to break through to the Titled Douluo realm in the future... Well, of course, dad, you will also succeed smoothly."
What he actually thought was that when he got the Vast Sea Universe Cover, he would take Lu Qingqing and Ning Rongrong to Poseidon Island. With the rewards of the Poseidon Exam, Lu Qingqing and Ning Rongrong would definitely be able to go smoothly and without any problems. Break through any bottleneck to the realm of Titled Douluo.
After all, the Poseidon Divine Examination was more like Dark Blue's bonus points. The original plot had the Shrek Seven Monsters directly jumping like rockets to improve their cultivation level without any problem, so there should be no problem now.
But at this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly realized that what he said seemed a little too confident, so he changed his tune.
But at this moment, Ning Fengzhi was keenly aware of something in Lu Yuan's words. He was stunned for a moment, and then said curiously, "Xiao Yuan, are you..."
Lu Yuan's eyes were a little embarrassed.
But Ning Fengzhi's eyes flickered and he stopped talking.
"Then thank you for your kind words, Xiaoyuan." Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.
Just after they talked for a while, the imperial nobles invited tonight, including the remaining kings of the three kingdoms, had already arrived.
And then, far away from the palace hall, the guards shouted, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Princess are here!"
Ning Rongrong and Yan Zhuyin heard this shouting and immediately returned to Lu Yuan and Yan Xian.
Then everyone saw Emperor Xue Ye slowly walking in with his prince "Xue Qinghe" and Lu Qingqing.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, and Your Highness the Crown Princess." This time, Ning Fengzhi and Ge Long took the lead in saluting.
Among the entire audience, only Bone Douluo did not salute, but he was a Titled Douluo after all, so it was normal not to salute.
"Everyone, please get up." Emperor Xueye said with a slight smile.
Then he specifically looked at Lu Yuan, with a kinder smile on his face, and said, "Lu Yuan, you are Qinghe's uncle and Qingqing's brother. Does your brother need to salute his sister? Let me see. , you don’t need to salute like everyone else from now on..."
His words sounded somewhat reproachful, but to everyone's ears, they sounded full of intimacy.
All the nobles and important ministers present immediately understood that Lu Yuan's prestige had now reached its peak. Emperor Xue Ye was trying to bring Lu Yuan closer to the royal family.
Otherwise, if Lu Yuan was just a little bit inferior, even if Lu Qingqing was Lu Yuan's biological sister, Lu Yuan would be punished as "disrespectful" by Emperor Xue Ye if he didn't show respect.
Only when the strength and prestige reached Lu Yuan's current level could Emperor Xue Ye "blame" him in such a "family" tone.
Lu Yuan had no choice but to follow Emperor Xue Ye's wishes and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
"Okay, tonight is the celebration banquet. Everyone is here, so please take your seats first." Emperor Xueye waved his hand and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Everyone responded.
Then, under the guidance of dozens of attendants, everyone present took their seats.
However, the order of seats is also particular. It is obviously based on the status of each noble family. The first place is of course Emperor Xueye, and he is also the furthest away from the others.
To the left of Emperor Xue Ye were Qian Renxue and Lu Qingqing. However, what was very surprising was that Emperor Xue Ye actually arranged for Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong to sit next to Qian Renxue and Lu Qingqing.
This position should belong to Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo, right?
However, the Crown Prince Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo took their seats first on the right side of Emperor Xueye, followed closely by the Imperial Marshal Ge Long.
I can't see any problem at this moment, after all, the top two Ge Longs are Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo.
Then the two columns on the left and right are followed by the kings of the four kingdoms and the five military princes, followed closely by the minister of finance, the minister of supervision and others in the imperial court.
In addition, the fourth prince Xue Beng, Prince Xue Xing and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect did not attend this dinner.
Xue Beng and Xue Xing were basically eliminated from the center of the empire's power because Qian Renxue was already the crown prince.
As for the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, it is only because they generally do not participate in the internal affairs of the Tiandou Empire. If it is just a symbolic attendance like the Continental Soul Master Senior Competition, they will attend.
But this dinner was a celebration banquet for the Tiandou Empire to celebrate their victory over the Star Luo Empire, so there was no need for the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect to come. It was definitely not because of any disagreements with the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and Lu Yuan.
Immediately afterwards, Emperor Xueye looked at the minister beside him and said with a smile, "Let's serve."
The minister immediately bowed and saluted, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Immediately afterwards, the attendants of the palace slowly presented rich and beautiful royal dishes one after another. However, the dinner was a separate meal system, but the dishes arranged in front of everyone were a little different.
Obviously, this is a menu that Emperor Xue Ye made separately for different people's different tastes. Not every dish is completely different for everyone, but there are always some slightly different dishes, and they all happen to be the same. Everyone has their own favorite food.
