Chapter 366 Banquet Preparations
Chapter 366 Banquet Preparations
After Gu Yuchuan issued the order, everyone in the Jiaolong Palace sprang into action. Although he didn't have a particularly deep network of connections, he still had quite a few people to invite. Former colleagues and new friends he had made on the battlefield were all people he needed to invite. Not to mention, now that his status and position were different, many people would definitely try to curry favor with him. Therefore, this banquet would be very grand, to show them his magnanimity.
At this moment, a little demon entered: "Your Majesty, the Xuan Turtle Demon King requests an audience."
The Xuan Turtle Demon King is naturally his sworn brother, the Xuan Turtle Demon General. Now he has also become a Demon King, which can be considered as achieving his goal and dream. However, the gap between a Demon King at the first level of the Golden Core stage and Gu Yuchuan is getting bigger and bigger. However, the Ink Dragon Demon King can barely keep up, and he is now at the seventh level of the Golden Core stage.
Gu Yuchuan's eyes turned cold: "How dare you! Who gave you the audacity to stop my elder brother outside? Invite him in!"
Gu Yuchuan followed them out. He truly cherished this brotherhood and regarded them as his own brothers. Although their status was different now, he was not the kind of person who would abandon someone after they had served their purpose.
From afar, Gu Yuchuan saw the Xuan Turtle Demon King: "Brother, it's been a long time. Come in quickly. The people below are ignorant and new. They stopped you here, even though we are sworn brothers. I have already punished them. Come, let's have a good chat."
His attitude reassured the Xuan Turtle Demon King: "Hey, what's the big deal? They're just making a message, it's normal, you don't need to get angry."
After they entered the main hall, they sat down, and the Xuan Turtle Demon King clasped his hands in a fist salute.
"Congratulations, Third Brother! You've now become the Demon Emperor, a true powerhouse in the Azure Cloud Realm. I'm so envious. Of the three of us brothers, you're already the Demon Emperor, and the Second Brother is at the late Golden Core stage. As for me, I've been dragging us down."
His expression was somewhat gloomy, and he was genuinely feeling quite distressed.
Gu Yuchuan didn't really know how to comfort him; these pale words didn't really offer any comfort.
"Brother, don't be so pessimistic. The Azure Cloud Realm has advanced now, and it's different from before. Advancement is much easier now. Brother, your talent is not bad, and you're not that old. If you cultivate diligently, you'll eventually reach the Demon Emperor level."
The Xuan Turtle Demon King nodded: "Then I will accept your auspicious words. I hope that one day I can also step into the realm of the Demon Emperor. Let's get down to business. The reason I came so early this time is to help you with the banquet. I heard that you are going to hold a Nascent Soul Banquet. With your current situation, there must be a lot of people who will come voluntarily. This matter is very busy. I was afraid that you would not be able to handle it well, so I came to help you in advance. If it is not handled well, it will be a loss of face."
Gu Yuchuan understood, and was even very happy: "Thank you, brother. I really don't understand something here. I was really afraid something might happen. It's great that you're here to help. Thank you, brother."
The Xuan Turtle Demon King immediately stood up: "There's no need to thank me. Alright, I'm going to get back to work. You can play by yourself."
After saying that, he got up and went to get busy. He had already helped Gu Yuchuan organize several banquets, and he was very familiar with the Jiaolong Palace. He also knew several of the management personnel, so there would naturally be no problem.
But Gu Yuchuan stopped him: "Brother, wait a moment, no rush. Come, take a look at the child. I have a new baby girl."
The Xuan Turtle Demon King's expression lit up immediately: "Really? This is a great joy! Why didn't you say anything? With your talent, the child you give birth to must be extremely powerful. Let me see him!"
At this moment, Jianjia came over carrying the child. Jianjia's current status was only that of a concubine. Indeed, in such an occasion, it would be too impolite for him to come over directly without being called by anyone.
Gu Yuchuan took the child from his arms: "Big brother, look, this is my eldest daughter, Gu Mingxi. She is a dragon, a mirage, a low-grade exotic beast. I hope she can soar to great heights in the future."
The Xuan Turtle Demon King's eyes were slightly dazed. This was a low-grade exotic beast, a realm he dared not even dream of. In fact, it was already very difficult for him to have the bloodline of a low-grade spirit beast in his life. He dared not ask for anything more. After all, he was not a dragon, and it would be too difficult for him to advance further.
"Just as I thought, your child is destined to be a dragon among demons, and his future achievements will be remarkable. I was in a hurry to leave this time and didn't bring a gift for the child. I'll make it up to you next time I come."
After checking on the children, he got busy. He was very familiar with organizing such banquets; it was a piece of cake for him, and there wouldn't be any problems. By evening, everything was almost done, and he gave instructions to everyone, who then began to carry out their tasks in an orderly manner.
At this time, the Ink Dragon Demon King had also arrived. He was also a cultivator at the seventh level of the Golden Core stage. Although he did not stand out as much as Gu Yuchuan on the battlefield, he steadily gained many benefits and his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. Such a speed of cultivation advancement was quite outrageous in the entire Qingyun Realm. However, with Gu Yuchuan above him, he seemed somewhat inconspicuous.
After Gu Yuchuan advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, his perspective indeed changed. He immediately noticed the aura emanating from the Ink Dragon Demon King. The king's aura was extremely dense and closely connected to Yun Haize. It seemed that, just as he had guessed, the king was indeed a child of destiny born from Yun Haize's aura, and now he also possessed the rank of a primary child of destiny. Sure enough, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why his cultivation was not much different from that of the cheat-like Gu Yuchuan.
That night, the three of them sat in the banquet hall. The two brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they were both very happy.
Gu Yuchuan picked up his wine glass: "It's been more than a year since I've seen my two elder brothers. I really miss them. Now, as their younger brother, I'll drink first as a sign of respect."
They both downed their drinks in one gulp. The Xuan Turtle Demon King spoke up: "I'll also raise a toast. The three of us are finally experts above the Demon King level. Who would have thought that when we met, you two were just little demons in the Qi Refining stage? Now, it's completely different. You've both surpassed me. Wherever the three of us are, we're an alliance of a powerful force. This is something I never imagined, especially my third brother, who is already a Nascent Soul stage Demon Emperor. It's like a dream. Come, let me toast you."
The three of them had another drink. The atmosphere between them was very good. They drank one cup after another. Although they hadn't seen each other for more than a year, their relationship was still very good, just like that of brothers.
