Douluo Continent: A Fallen Immortal Descends to Earth, Slaying Gods with a Drunken Sword

Chapter 297 The Title Conferment Feast Begins! Apart from allies, no other forces have come. (Seeking monthly votes)

Ten days passed by like a flash.

During this period.

Li Zhexian's friends arrived in Tiandou City one after another.

But the grand feast of bestowing titles is about to begin.

The others did not rush to get him to drink.

Instead, they stayed at the official guesthouse provided by the royal family, awaiting the start of the grand banquet.

this day.

At the break of dawn.

The first rays of dawn illuminated the city tower, making the red embroidered ball hanging high above shine brightly.

boom--!
boom--!
Dozens of cannons on the city wall fired in unison, the sound reverberating throughout the city.

The projectiles that shot from the muzzle were not iron bullets, but rather a sky full of colorful ribbons.

The rain fell in a flurry, lasting for the entire duration of an incense stick burning.

Smoke billowed from the cannons, filling half the city.

At this time.

Suddenly, the sounds of suona horns and gongs rose up, soaring and stirring, piercing the sky.

Amidst the hazy smoke, dragon dance teams surged forth from the streets and alleys, leaping and tumbling with joy.

Following behind were the people of Tiandou City, young and old, all with smiles on their faces, surging towards the center of the city like a tide.

"Hahaha, I've been starving for two days, just waiting for Lord Jianjiu's title conferment feast!"

"The Emperor's grace is boundless! Lord Sword Wine and His Majesty Wind Sword have bestowed such a gracious favor upon us commoners! The grand banquet for bestowing titles is shared by us, the commoners!"

"Look at this banquet! It's spread all the way from the palace to our little South Alley! It's truly a celebration for the whole nation!"

"To witness the brilliance of the Sword and Wine Master in person is better than drinking any fine wine! Today, I must witness the immortal's title being passed down through the ages!"

"I wonder what other exciting things will happen today!"

The Heavenly Dou Royal Family has poured their hearts and souls into this grand event.

Not only in the city center, but also adjacent to the imperial palace, the Ministry of Works' Soul Masters were ordered to work day and night to build an elegant city within a city within eight days, capable of accommodating tens of thousands of guests and commoners for a banquet.

Furthermore, banquets were set up throughout the streets and alleys, and today everyone can sit for free and share in the grand event, demonstrating a spirit of universal celebration.

From the first light of dawn to the sun at its zenith.

Under the coordination of the royal family and the soul masters of the three major sects, the banquets in the streets and alleys gradually filled up, and the city within a city was already 80% full.

A young child opened his bright eyes wide and reached out to grab a piece of candy on the table, but was gently patted down by the woman next to him.

"Lord Sword Wine and His Majesty Wind Sword have not yet appeared; do not be rude!"

The child pouted, about to cry, but unable to contain his curiosity, he pointed to the towering wooden building in the city and asked:

"Mother, what's that?"

The woman looked around for a moment, then exchanged bewildered glances with her neighbors, all shaking their heads in confusion.

This building was completed at the same time as the city within a city, soaring into the clouds and even taller than the highest palace in the imperial palace.

"Everyone——"

at this time.

An elderly man dressed in a deep blue robe rose into the air with the help of the wind.

He looked slightly flustered, but his face was flushed with excitement.

It was that storyteller.

on the ground.

The disciples of the Wind Sword Sect channeled their energy, lifting him into the air and amplifying his voice with the sound of the wind.

His aged yet passionate voice resounded throughout the city:

"Today the sky is clear and the air is crisp, without a single cloud in the sky. It seems that even the heavens have come to celebrate the grand banquet of Lord Sword Wine and His Majesty Wind Sword!"

"Ahem, fellow villagers and guests, please forgive me. I am a storyteller by nature, and my speech is inevitably a bit stiff..."

The words were spoken.

The entire city erupted in bursts of laughter.

"all in all……"

The storyteller smiled broadly as he finished speaking.

Zheng——!
Zheng——!
Two clear, resonant sword cries suddenly echoed through the sky, silencing the clamor of the entire city.

Everyone looked up.

A handsome young man in a white robe and an elderly man in a gray robe with fluttering wind stood side by side in the clouds, bowing and smiling towards the four directions, their voices echoing throughout the scene:
"all in all--"

"Everyone, you must eat and drink to your heart's content today!"

Wow——! ! !
All of a sudden.

The whole city was in an uproar.

"It is Lord Jianjiu and His Majesty Fengjian!" "Thank you, Lord Jianjiu! His Majesty Fengjian!"

"A simple 'eat well and drink well' is a hundred times better than all those tedious words!"

Within the city within the city.
Yu Tianheng, Feng Buyu, Huo Wushuang, Feng Xiaotian, Oscar, and others sat together at one table.

At the next table were a group of girls including Zhu Zhuqing, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, and Shui Bing'er.

Huo Wushuang gazed at the white-robed youth in the sky, the center of attention, tossed a piece of candy into his mouth, and sighed with a wry smile:
"Brother Immortal is truly formidable!"

"After a year apart, he's actually able to slay a titled figure with his sword!"

Feng Xiaotian also shook his head and sighed:
"It's a pity I couldn't accompany Brother Banished Immortal to the Seven Sects for the re-selection..."

"Hey!"

Feng Buyu continued:

"I'm going with Tianheng!"

"but……"

"There's absolutely no way to get involved!"

Feng Xiaotian waved his hand and laughed:
"That's all."

"Comparing strength with this monster is pointless."

"Damn it, out of our group, I'm the only one who got nailed by the celestial being twice, right?!"

"We'll definitely have to make him drink a few more jars of wine later!"

Huo Wushuang and Oscar laughed and echoed his words:

"That's how it should be!"

On the table next to it.

A group of girls surrounded Zhu Zhuqing, laughing and chatting.

Holding her newly purchased copy of "The Legend of Sword and Wine," Shuiyue'er recited it with great expression:
"Zhuqing...I miss you..."

"Please wake up... please..."

"The world is vast, the clouds and moon shine over countless mountains, I want to see it all with you..."

When she got to the emotional part, her eyes welled up with tears.

The girls' eyes also welled up with tears as they listened.

Only Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face turned bright red, and she got up to snatch the book.

"Moon! Stop reading! Give me the book!"

Amidst the laughter, a barely perceptible hint of envy flickered in the depths of several beautiful eyes.

Huo Wu chewed on a plum, crossed her arms, looked up at the sky, glanced at the spirited young man, and muttered under her breath:
"I didn't realize you were so good at it."

Just as the whole city was rejoicing over the appearance of Li Zhexian and Feng Bailong.

The storyteller announced the program in succession.

This brought the atmosphere to another climax:
"Feng Xiaohong, Dean of Shenfeng Academy, congratulates His Highness Feng Jian and His Highness Zhexian on their promotion to higher titles!"

"Dean Shui Panqing of Tianshui Academy congratulates Your Excellency Feng Jian and Your Excellency Zhe Xian on your promotion to higher titles!"

"Ning Fengzhi, Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, congratulates His Highness Feng Jian and His Highness the Immortal on their promotion to higher titles!"

"Yu Yuanzhen, patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, congratulates His Highness Wind Sword and His Highness Immortal on their promotion to the highest titles!"

above the sky.

Vast spiritual power converged into a tide, dyeing the clouds with a dazzling seven colors, shimmering and radiant, like a dream.

The deans of the four academies and the sect leaders of the three upper sects all arrived in person. These important figures, who are rarely seen on ordinary days, appeared one after another to offer their congratulations, causing the people of Tiandou to exclaim in surprise.

but.

Anyone with eyes can see the truth.

These forces were allies to begin with, so it was only natural for them to come and show their support; it was just a publicity stunt.

Next…

That's what's truly noteworthy.

Let's see which other force dares to defy the power of the Spirit Hall and show up to offer their congratulations at this moment.

These are the forces that choose sides and fight against Heaven.

however.

Since the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, no other forces have come to offer their congratulations for a long time.

Feng Bailong and Li Zhexian led Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, and the four deans to the inner city and seated them.

It was just a moment ago noisy and lively.

It immediately became quiet.

The atmosphere changed abruptly, and even the ordinary people of Tiandou, who were scattered throughout the streets and alleys, sensed that something was amiss.

They began to whisper and murmur among themselves.
