Chapter eight hundred and seventy-four: provocation
At night, the palace, a hall was brightly lit, and it was very lively, singing and dancing, and there was a jubilant atmosphere. The king of the Great Yan Dynasty, Nalan Rongnuo, the queen Yuexian, the prince Nalan Hongyi, the palace master Nalan Yanran and a group of civil and military ministers of Da Yan all arrived. In addition, there was also an old man in his sixties who looked gray in his robe, with a burly figure, giving people a feeling of being old and strong. His dark eyes were deep and sharp, and he had a general trend. This was the last king of the Great Yan Dynasty, a powerful figure in the realm of a giant, and the last giant power of the Great Yan Dynasty, besides the king of the Great Yan Dynasty, and he also attended tonight to personally attend the banquet to welcome the geniuses of Shenglongdao and Cihang Jingzhai.
The two disciples of Shenglong Dao are Liu Qing and Zhan Feng, both of whom are very handsome and have outstanding temperaments, but their temperaments are different. Zhan Feng is as famous as his name, with distinct facial features. The sword eyebrows and starry eyes give people the feeling of being a sharp sword showing its sharpness, while Liu Qing gives people a more evil feeling, especially the beautiful face that tends to be feminine, which gives people an unspeakable feminineness. A man gives birth to a face that is more beautiful than a woman. The two women of Cihang Jingzhai are Pei Han and Ru Xuan, both are very beautiful, with their facial features, but overall they give people a feeling of being different in temperament, and they both give people a sense of ethereality, like they have a fairy spirit on their body, not as different in temperament as Liu Qing and Zhan Feng.
During the whole banquet, the four people became the absolute protagonists. A group of ministers of the Great Yan Dynasty kept toasting the four people. Even Nalan Rongnuo and Nalande kept talking to the four people, talking from time to time. The warm atmosphere was a world of difference from the last time when they held a dinner party for Ning Caichen. This was the difference. Although it was a reality.
Ning Caichen and Nalan Hongyi sat together, but he seemed very calm. He neither took the initiative to drink with others nor came to him. He looked very much like a transparent person. Ning Caichen didn't care and drank by himself. However, Nalan Hongyi next to him drank with him from time to time. At first, Nalan Hongyi also toasted Ru Xuan, Pei Han, Liu Qing and Zhan Feng frequently, but noticed that Ning Caichen next to him, he invited him no matter what, and in his heart, he still valued Ning Caichen very much. Moreover, he always had a intuition that Ning Caichen was not simple, so he did not want to alienate himself from Ning Caichen because of Zhan Feng and the other four.
Ning Caichen knew about Nalan Hongyi's thoughts, but he did not feel any resistance. People are creatures that consider their own interests, and Nalan Hongyi has always been very polite to him.
"hehe...."
On the other hand, Nalan Yanran looked at Ning Caichen and Nalan Hongyi, but the corners of her mouth raised and showed a sarcastic smile. She loved the house and the house because she had hatred for Nalan Hongyi, and she also had a hostility towards Ning Caichen. At this moment, she also felt a sense of pleasure when she saw Ning Caichen being neglected at the banquet. In her opinion, this was a kind of revenge on Nalan Hongyi.
At the seat, Nalan Rongnuo, Queen Yue Concubine and others also looked at Ning Caichen, but they only took a look. After knowing that Ning Caichen was just a casual cultivator, they basically had no intention of making friends with Ning Caichen. Although the casual cultivator is not necessarily not worth making friends, the casual cultivator who is worthy of their friendship must be at least a strong person, and at least they need to have the strength above the extreme level. They are the leader of the sect and traverse the other side. Such a casual cultivator is worthy of their compliment and friendship and bringing benefits to them. But if they are just a powerful casual cultivator, although they are considered a master of a side, it is impossible to let them please and make friends. What's more, there are still four geniuses in the holy lands here, each of which is a giant. Which one is more important, in their hearts, they will naturally have a reputation.
In fact, it was not just Nalan Rongnuo and the others who noticed Ning Caichen. Almost all the ministers of the Da Yan Dynasty present noticed Ning Caichen, but they didn't pay attention, because at this moment they all focused on pleasing Liu Qing and the other two. Of course, no one provoked Ning Caichen or something. After all, Ning Caichen's strength was there. In their opinion, although Ning Caichen was a casual cultivator, he was also a giant. Looking at the entire Da Yan Dynasty, only Nalan Rongnuo and Nalande could compete with him. Although they did not plan to have a good relationship with such a person, they would not offend him easily, of course, except Nalan Yanran.
"Come on, let's raise our glasses together, respect the two fairies of Cihang Jingzhai and the two young men of Shenglongdao to welcome the four."
After a short time of the banquet, Nalan Rongnuo picked up the wine glass and stood up and toasted to Liu Qing, Zhan Feng, Pei Han, and the four of them. When the others heard this, they also stood up one after another, including Nalande, Queen Yue Fei, Palace Master Nalan Yanran, Prince Nalan Hongyi, and a group of civil and military ministers of Da Yan raised their glasses to toast the four of them.
"Word to the two fairies and the two young men..." Everyone raised their glasses.
"You are so kind to come, come, let's drink this cup together."
Pei Han and Liu Qing spoke and made a gesture of invitation. However, the four of them did not stand up like the others. They just continued to sit in the seat, said a polite word, then raised their glasses to signal everyone, drank the wine in the glass with a faint smile on their faces. It could be seen that the four of them were still enjoying this feeling.
When the other people saw the four of them doing this, they didn't even stand up. They obviously looked down on them and felt a little uncomfortable.
"Come! Come! Come! Drink this cup together."
Finally, Nalan Rongnuo spoke first and took the lead in drinking the glass. When the others heard this, they smiled and drank the wine.
Ning Caichen sat next to him and looked at him quietly and wanted to laugh. A group of people tried their best to curry favor with him, but they didn't like you very much. It was so embarrassing.
But soon everyone noticed Ning Caichen, who had been sitting in the seat, and his face changed slightly. Nalan Rongnuo also browed slightly and looked at Ning Caichen, with a hint of anger flashing in his eyes, because at this time he discovered that Liu Qing and Zhan Feng also noticed Ning Caichen, and his face was a little gloomy.
"Why did Mr. Ning drink alone there? Everyone toasted Liu Qing, Zhan Feng, the two fairies Pei Han and Ru Xuan. Mr. Ning planned to drink alone all the time, or did he look down on Mr. Liu Qing and the four of them, and didn't want to have a drink with everyone."
At this time, a cold voice sounded, and Nalan Yanran spoke, looking at Ning Caichen with a smile, making everyone present look the same. This was a bit too far, and there was obvious suspicion of provoking relationships. Originally, Ning Caichen did not stand up, which made Liu Qing and the others seem a little unhappy. Now, after Nalan Yanran's provocation, with the arrogance of the children of the Holy Land, if they were not done well, the conflict would break out.
Nalan Rongnuo's face also suddenly became gloomy. He first glared at Nalan Yanran, then looked at Ning Caichen, with a bad look. Although he was a little angry, Nalan Yanran fanned the flames, he became even more angry that Ning Caichen was ungrateful. They all stood up and Ning Caichen was still sitting there alone.
Nalan Hongyi stood next to Ning Caichen and suddenly became embarrassed. He knew that Nalan Yanran was deliberately targeting Ning Caichen, and his intentions were a little poisonous, but Ning Caichen didn't stand up just now, and in his opinion, he was indeed a little self-righteous...
Nalan Yanran looked at Ning Caichen with a smile, with a hint of sarcasm and coldness in her eyes. This was her intentional way to deal with Ning Caichen. Who asked Ning Caichen to walk with his most hated brother Nalan Hongyi?
Liu Qing, Zhan Feng, Ru Xuan and Pei Han also looked at Ning Caichen. Among them, Liu Qing and Zhan Feng's faces were a little gloomy. Although they could feel that Nalan Yanran did it on purpose, Ning Caichen did not stand up just now, which really made them angry. Pei Han and Ru Xuan seemed a little calmer, as if they were really like fairies, extraordinary and unmoved by external things.
"Does my drinking have a lot to do with Your Highness the Princess? It seems that Your Highness is too broad-minded." Ning Caichen raised his eyes slightly and looked at Nalan Yanran with no joy or sorrow on his face: "Besides, where does Your Highness the Princess see that I haven't toasted just now."
"Sweep" Nalan Yanran sneered: "We all stood up, but you didn't stand up, just sat alone."
Nalan Yanran’s meaning was very obvious. Everyone stood up to toast Liu Qing and the other four. He was sitting there alone, and the toast was not clear at a glance.
"Who said I was sitting alone? Are there four there?"
Ning Caichen raised his lips slightly, glanced at Liu Qing, Zhan Feng, Pei Han and Ru Xuan sitting. At this moment, the air seemed to freeze. Everyone held their breath and looked at Ning Caichen in shock. This guy really dared to say anything. Even Nalan Yanran was stunned for a moment, while Nalan Rongnuo's face was gloomy...
Everyone looked at Ning Caichen in shock. Is this guy really not knowing anything or a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger? This is a naked provocation.
Nalan Yanran's expression was a moment, but she soon came to her senses and smiled at Ning Caichen, but it was a sarcastic smile. It meant that I saw how you died, and the others also looked at Ning Caichen and looked at Liu Qing and the other two.
"boom!"
Everyone felt like a hundred thousand mountains were pressing on their bodies in an instant, and a terrifying aura was overwhelming and sweeping around. Many people were directly pressed by this huge aura and sat on the ground. They looked at Zhan Feng in horror. They saw that Zhan Feng had stood up at some point, and a terrifying aura emanated from him. At this moment, he was like a revived god of war.
"You think you are qualified to drink on an equal footing with me."
