Chapter 528 They remained silent, only eating.

The appearance of Yin Ling and Liang He brought a new wave of excitement to the banquet.

Landon and the others, who were originally exchanging pleasantries with the High Priest, were now completely captivated by the slowly approaching figure, not wanting to miss a single second.

It wasn't until Liang He sat beneath Yin Ling that everyone in the palace seemed to regain their senses.

The temple has a strict hierarchy. As the Holy Maiden and the Divine Child, Yin Ling and Yin Qi are arranged side by side at the highest position. However, Yin Qi has not yet arrived, and the High Priest is sitting below Yin Qi, facing the two of them directly.

"You must be Lady Liang He, right? I am Yin Feng, the High Priest of the Temple. I have been busy with affairs and have neglected you. Please forgive me."

Yin Feng has silver hair that shines like moonlight. Time has left its mark on her face, but she doesn't look old. Instead, she looks mature and dashing.

As the highest authority besides the Holy Maiden and the Divine Child, High Priest Silverwind mainly handles all affairs of the temple.

Of course, in the event of a major decision, the opinions of the saintess and the divine son, who are the 'representatives of the gods,' shall prevail.

"High Priest, you are too kind. Ah Ling has taken good care of me, and I am honored to have the opportunity to participate in this grand ceremony of the temple."

Since arriving at the temple, Liang He has observed every word and action of the people there.

Whether the people in the temple were inherently friendly or Yin Ling had made arrangements beforehand, Liang He had a very good impression of them.

"Haha! I was worried that Ah Ling wouldn't be able to take care of people, but after hearing what you said, I feel relieved."

With his dashing and forthright demeanor, Yin Feng was able to become the High Priest of the Temple and manage its affairs for many years. Naturally, his ability to judge people was far superior to that of others.

Yin Feng had been curious about Liang He's charm and abilities, which made both the Holy Maiden and the Divine Child praise her highly. Now, the answer was obvious.

"By the way, why hasn't Yin Qi arrived yet?"

Seeing the High Priest and Liang He chatting happily, a hint of pride appeared in Yin Ling's eyes, like a good sister being recognized by her elders.

However, she did not forget that Liang He and the others had traveled a long way. This banquet was specially prepared for them to welcome them back. But since Yin Qi had not arrived yet, they could not start eating first.

“The divine child is delayed by some matters, so we don’t need to wait for him.”

When Yin Qi was mentioned, a strange, indescribable expression appeared on the High Priest's face.

Perhaps it was a sense of trepidation about returning home, but not long after returning from the Tianyao Star Nature Reserve, Yin Qi successfully passed the evolution period and returned to human form.

After finally getting the 'keeper' to arrive, he suddenly dropped the ball, leaving Yin Feng speechless.

"Speaking of which, we haven't encountered the Divine Child even though we've checked into his palace today."

Since Liang He has moved into the Saintess's exclusive palace, Landon and Cedril will naturally not be neglected.

Considering that the saintess and the divine child were all relatively close to them, turning the palace directly into a men's and women's bedroom was quite interesting.

"Alright, since that's the case, let's not wait for him anymore, let's start the meal!"

Yin Ling figured the time had come, and Yin Qi would naturally appear when it was time. Anyway, since it was their own territory, nothing serious would happen.

Moreover, after Yin Qi reverted to his ancestral form during the evolutionary period, his strength increased greatly, and he is now much stronger than her, so she doesn't need to worry about him at all.

"Serve!"

Yinling went to great lengths to make Liang He and the others feel at home.

"Our area is covered in ice and snow all year round, so we've prepared mini hot pots in case you're not used to it. There's plenty of meat and vegetables, so please don't be shy!"

Outsiders cannot easily enter the Silverwing Temple, and the temple's inhabitants, devoted to the gods, unconsciously suppress their cravings. Therefore, even though Blue Star boasts abundant cuisine, the temple has not built a canteen or hired chefs. When they are truly craving something delicious, they gather in small groups, disguise themselves as ordinary people, and venture into the city to find food and satisfy their cravings.

This time, Yinling also sampled all the local delicacies. She specially found a skilled chef outside and prepared hot pot base to bring back. As for cutting meat and washing vegetables, the guards and maids could handle it.

"Okay, then we're welcome."

As the 'bridge' between the two parties at this dinner, Liang He took the first bite, picked up a piece of tripe, and dipped it in the hot pot using the seven-up-eight-down method.

After the tripe was cooked, Liang He put it into the specially prepared dipping sauce. The sauce covered the tripe, and Liang He decisively put it into her mouth. The already fragrant and delicious taste instantly and forcefully invaded her taste buds.

"good to eat!"

Seeing Liang He start eating without any pretense, the High Priest's smile deepened.

Especially when she saw Liang He's eyes light up as she put the food into her mouth, she, who had previously been 'skeptical' about the hot pot, suddenly felt an urge to pick up her chopsticks immediately.

Is it really that delicious?

"Hehe, this is the hot pot restaurant I carefully selected after trying all the restaurants on Silver Star. Their hot pot broth and unique dipping sauce recipe are absolutely amazing! There's always a long queue every time I go!"

Liang He's satisfied expression made Yin Ling's lips curl into a smile, and she began to 'praise herself' with great pride.

Ever since her trip to Tianyao Star and being captivated by Liang He's culinary skills, Yin Ling has developed an unprecedented passion for the food on Blue Star.

It's no exaggeration to say that if it weren't for her special status, she could easily become a food blogger.

"The flavor is indeed unique and delicious."

Liang He had eaten a lot of hot pot when she was on Blue Star, but the mini hot pot prepared by Yin Ling was unique in its own way, with both the soup base and the dipping sauce.

Seeing her high praise, Cedril and the others couldn't sit still any longer and started eating.

Among them, Hurdto Lianghe is the person who has eaten the most Blue Star delicacies. Of course, he has eaten hot pot before, but the mini hot pot prepared by Yinling is really different.

"Yum! So delicious!"

The umami flavor of the hot pot broth combined with a slight spiciness, the cooked beef slices dipped in the special sauce, are then swallowed in one bite.

The aroma of meat mixed with the flavor of the dipping sauce burst on the tongue, making Holder close his eyes in satisfaction. After finishing the meal, he took a sip of wine, and his body, which had been feeling a little cold, was instantly stimulated to break out in a slight sweat. The more he ate, the more intoxicated he became!
Compared to Holder, who ate meat and drank alcohol in large gulps, Hoan and his companions were clearly much more refined, but they also praised it highly.

For a moment, the only sounds at the dinner party were the bubbling of the hot pot and everyone enjoying their food; even the conversations stopped.

It wasn't until everyone had eaten about 70% full and their chopsticks were moving at a slower pace that High Priest Yin Feng slowly began to speak.

"The grand ceremony is the day after tomorrow, and the guests should arrive one after another tomorrow. Considering all factors, the king and others will stay at the temple this time."

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

Sometimes, being too special isn't a good thing.

Neither Yin Feng nor Yin Ling wanted Liang He to become the target of public criticism.

"The king? They rarely show up at the temple's grand ceremonies in the past."

Landon raised an eyebrow slightly, not expecting that the one from the Empire would actually be the King, even though he had heard rumors about it beforehand.

But then he thought about it again and realized he had found the reason.
