Chapter 1177 Happy Birthday
Although the Tianlist master is not as good as a duke in actual status, he is a master at the peak of the world after all. Even the duke will not force his face in front of a Tianlist master. Otherwise, if he offended a Tianlist master, he would not be able to kill this duke, as long as he gives you some black hands from time to time and kills your subordinates a few days, then this duke will never have peace of mind.
So after hearing that the Tianlista came to celebrate his birthday, although it had passed the time to visit, the Duke still stood up and left the table in person, which gave the Tianlista face.
Besides, they also brought 10 million gold leaves with gifts, right?
However, the expression on Li Shengli's face was very stiff. The expert on the Tianlist said that he was commissioned by his lord Li Chenglong to celebrate his birthday. The expert on the Tianlist actually recognized Li Chenglong as his lord, which was shocking.
You should know that every expert on the Tianlist has his own arrogance. Unless he is an absolute hero and a generation of heroes, it is impossible for a master on the Tianlist to be willing to call him a lord.
In other words, Li Chenglong, who has always been unknown in the Li family, is actually a top figure, and even the masters on the Tianlist are conquered.
Soon, this expert on the Tianlist appeared in front of everyone. There were so many guests present, they were all big names, and had a wide range of connections, so many people recognized the other party's identity as soon as possible, and exclaimed, "He Ru is right, it's him!"
"Mr. He, I didn't expect that Mr. He would come to celebrate my birthday in person. I am really lucky in my life!" Li Shengli said kindly with He Ru's hand.
"The Duke laughed!" He Ru smiled slightly and said, "I was also entrusted by the lord to celebrate my birthday. This is the birthday gift brought by the lord. I would like to accept it with a smile!"
As He Ru finished speaking, the space ring in her hand shone with light, and bundles of golden leaves appeared on the ground in an instant.
Although the gardens in the Duke's Mansion are large, there are actually many open spaces because of the many wine tables placed, which is just an open space in the center of the banquet.
As a result, bundles of gold leaves basically filled the entire open space, and the golden light was full of sight.
Although everyone attending the banquet was big shots, Jin Yezi could not see their eyes. However, when 10 million Jin Yezi piled in front of them at the same time, the shock still made all the big shots a little dazzled.
"A mere gift, please accept the birthday boy!" After the master of the Tianlist said that, he respectfully stepped aside, leaving Li Shengli standing there, smiling and not smiling.
This Li Chenglong is not here to celebrate his birthday, it is clearly here to show off, but showing off his wealth and showing off his wealth is too much. He must have underestimated him. As the richest man in the Shenmu Continent, the Li family is nothing.
But Li Shengli had to admit that Li Chenglong was definitely not easy to be able to take out 10 million gold leaves in one breath, at least today, he was able to compete with Li Chenggong in terms of momentum.
Just as Li Shengli was thinking about who Li Chenglong was, another loud voice suddenly sounded in the garden, "Marquis of Fanhua County, Liu Tianrong, Marquis of Luanhua County, Jack Hanks, entrusted by the lord Li Chenglong, came to celebrate the birthday of the Duke and offer a birthday gift, two fruits of the resurrection of the divine wood!"
"What!" The hearts of the guests present beat almost at the same time.
The previous masters of the Tianlist were already surprising enough. I didn’t expect that the Marquis would appear now.
Moreover, it was not one that appeared, but two marquises appeared together at the same time.
Although there were many nobles present at this time, including some noble marquises, the nobles all knew that the Duke of Mangzhou and the Duke of Huazhou had great brilliance.
It is said that since the founding of the Seventh Dynasty 1,000 years ago, the two dukes' Liangzi have been formed. The Duke of Huazhou has been following him to conquer the world since the founding Taizu was still in vain.
At that time, the ancestor of the Duke of Mangzhou and Taizu were enemies, so Taizu ordered the Duke of Huazhou to lead his army to attack Mangzhou, and at the same time promised that Mangzhou would be his territory in the future.
As a result, the Duke of Huazhou, who had always won every battle, suffered a great loss in Mangzhou. The Duke of Mangzhou sold a flaw and took advantage of the Duke of Huazhou's arrogant soldiers to be defeated. He ordered all the nobles to retreat along the way, looking like they were fleeing.
The Duke of Huazhou was eager to make contributions, so he was blinded and wanted to directly attack Mangzhou City. However, after arriving at the city of Mangzhou, all the troops that had been defeated before suddenly appeared and made dumplings for the Duke of Huazhou. Finally, he captured the Duke of Huazhou, and wiped out the entire 200,000 troops.
What's even more terrible is that Taizu was in the middle of a three-line battle at that time, and the 200,000 troops of the Duke of Huazhou were wiped out, which means that there was a huge loophole in his defense. Taizu's hegemony was likely to disappear overnight.
However, the son of Destiny is the son of Destiny. In order to save the defeat, the founding Taizu of the Seventh Dynasty actually entered Mangzhou City alone. It is said that after only 10 minutes of negotiation with the Duke of Mangzhou, he took the Duke of Huazhou back and brought the captured 100,000 troops back. Mangzhou announced his loyalty to Taizu one day later.
So this big defeat turned into a big victory, and Taizu's hegemony became stronger, and the idiom of saving Huazhou for thousands of miles also came from this.
What the two sides talked about at that time, later generations could basically guess. It was nothing more than Taizu guaranteeing the absolute autonomy of Mangzhou, and at the same time ensuring that Mangzhou would not be able to move any power.
However, in this way, the promise of enfeoffing Mangzhou to the Duke of Huazhou became a joke.
Although in order to make up for the other side, Taizu turned to Huazhou to him, the Duke of Huazhou regarded his capture as a great humiliation. From then on, he entered a 1,000-year confrontation with Mangzhou. There was no exchange between the nobles on both sides, even though these two states were actually two states on the border.
Huazhou is also the only commercial power of the Duke of Mangzhou that is difficult to enter.
But now, two marquises from Huazhou, who had not had any contact for 1,000 years and had no contact with the nobles on both sides, actually came to celebrate Li Shengli's birthday in person.
The various speculations about the political meaning and connotation here can make the guests feel 10,000-strong curiosity.
Not to mention that the birthday gifts sent by these two marquises were actually two fruits of revival of the divine wood.
A fruit of the resurrection of the divine wood is enough to make a duke excited for a month and cannot eat. Such a person saves his life at a critical moment, and even the crown position will take all the costs and give away two treasures with shamelessness.
In fact, there is no such a fruit of the resurrection of the divine wood in many marquis’ family background.
"Two sirs, you are a rare guest!" Li Shengli said with a slight smile.
"I dare not, I will pay homage to the Duke!" The two marquises respectfully saluted Li Shengli, and then said loudly, "We will bring gifts to the Duke on the order of the lord Li Chenglong, and at the same time, wish the Duke a lifetime and the divine tree will last forever!"
After the two marquises finished speaking, they had two eye-piercing Divine Wood Resurrection Fruits on their hands and sent them to Li Shengli.
Li Shengli's expression was slightly stiff and he put the two fruits in his pocket. Compared with these two Divine Wood Recovery Fruits, the golden leaves on this land seemed to be a little worthless.
But this is not over. After Li Shengli collected two fruits, the third loud birthday celebration sounded.
"The player Qin Yiren of the Heavenly List cooperated with the Duke of Yuanzhou Zhang Yuwei, who was entrusted by the lord Li Chenglong, came to celebrate the birthday of the Duke and presented a birthday gift, with a set of full-level golden legend equipment!"
Thump, I knew how many guests hadn't sat down and fell off the chair.
If He Ru, the master of the Heavenly List, and the two marquises who appeared earlier, are already big names standing at the height of the world, then the two who will appear next are the two most peaks.
Let’s talk about this expert on the Heavenly List. Although He Ru is also a master on the Heavenly List, he is not on the same level as Qin Yiren, because Qin Yiren is the second-ranked super expert on the Heavenly List. In other words, in addition to the top players in the world, Qin Yiren’s strength ranks second, and his amazing strength can be imagined!
As for this Duke of Yuanzhou, I won’t talk about the identity of the duke himself. He is a great man as noble as Li Shengli.
What's more important is the strength of this Yuanzhou Duke. However, the Duke of Yuanzhou is the most powerful duke among the 12 Dukes. He has the invincible combat power known as the 12 Knights.
The reason why these 12 knights are invincible is that each of them is a full-level player and a master of the Tianlist. At the same time, they are at least wearing a full-level orange suit, and the two top knights are wearing a full set of golden legend-level equipment.
However, these equipment does not belong to these knights, but to the Yuanzhou Duke family, which is the foundation accumulated over 4,000 years.
These twelve knights even commanded a total of 12,000 troops... Don't think that the number of troops is small, because this is a peaceful army. I don't know that in the war 1,000 years ago, the Duke of Yuanzhou expanded the 12,000 troops into an army of 12,000 overnight. If the Duke of Yuanzhou had not always adhered to the mentality and family rules of never being emperor, but only being dukes, and perhaps the Duke of Yuanzhou would have the position of emperor 2,000 years ago, it would have been the Duke of Yuanzhou.
Now, the Duke of Yuanzhou has joined hands with the second-ranked master on the Tianchang list to celebrate his birthday, and they all call Li Chenglong his master.
At this moment, everyone understood that the position of the Duke of Mangzhou might not be able to reach Li Chenggong's hands.
There is no way, Li Chenglong even subdued the second-ranked Duke and the No. 1 No. 1 in the Heavenly List and became his subordinate. Is there anyone better than him in the world?
