"That's exactly what I wanted to tell my master. His Highness summoned me to the palace to discuss this matter."
His Highness told me that as the master's actions on the interdimensional battlefield intimidated everyone, the nobles were frantically searching for the master's whereabouts.
Even with the scandalous affair between their master and His Highness as cover, the Hengsha Li family, one of the four dukes, seemed to have begun to doubt their master's identity.
"Their decision to have the court officials arrange the banquet for the envoys of the two great empires at the Sun King's palace was partly motivated by a desire to test the host's intentions."
Your Highness wanted to stop them from testing you, but in that situation, directly refusing would have exposed your own problem.
Therefore, Your Highness can only arrange this banquet at the Sun King's Palace for now, and then invite the host to stay at the palace for a while. What does the host think?
Luo Tian finally understood. Yin Qianyu wanted to help him conceal his identity, but the Li family of Hengsha had already begun to test him under the guise of the banquet. The court official mentioned in today's newspaper was the vanguard of the Li family.
Now that the banquet at the Sun King's Palace is a done deal, Yin Qianyu, mindful of Luo Tian's status, wants him to stay temporarily in the palace.
Luo Tian did not accept Yin Qianyu's invitation, but instead pointed to the rare treasures displayed in front of the Sun King's palace and asked:
"Are these things also planned to be shown at the banquet?"
Shuangye nodded slightly and said, "At the banquet, these treasures will be displayed as spoils of war, along with the captured leaders of the five allied forces."
These war criminals who instigated the interdimensional war will be tried by the two great empires in the presence of the imperial court!
Luo Tian's face lit up with joy, and he couldn't help but clap his hands and say, "Isn't this a good thing!"
Those rare treasures will be displayed as spoils of war, and Luo Tian could easily take advantage of the banquet to see if there are any other artifacts that appeared in the Spring Water Shop.
If Luo Tian could find one or two items, their value would be greatly enhanced.
Overjoyed, Luo Tian said to Shuang Ye with a happy expression:
"Help me get an identity so I can attend this so-called aristocratic banquet tonight."
Luo Tian's reaction greatly surprised Shuang Ye. She widened her beautiful eyes, completely unexpected that Luo Tian would have this attitude.
Luo Tian glanced at Shuang Ye, recalling Yin Qianyu's concerns, and casually said:
Tell her she doesn't need to worry about such a small thing at all.
I know she helped me hide my identity because she was thinking of me, but even if these nobles found out my identity and confirmed my strength, what could they do?
Ultimately, their alliance stemmed from their own insufficient strength.
"The world behind the God-King of the Star World and the various powerful figures would not dare to attack me just because of a few words from them."
On the contrary, I can easily crush them before the forces behind them can react!
Faced with sufficient strength, everything else is nothing but illusion!
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Tian looked thoughtfully up at the sky.
Under the sun's radiance, the stars shining in the sky are hidden in the sunlight, looking down upon all living beings in the world.
As Luo Tian uttered the words "Star God King," numerous stars in the sky twinkled simultaneously, their powerful gazes, seemingly integrated into the heavens and earth, slowly descending upon the place where Luo Tian stood.
What you hold dear will surely resonate; that is a power possessed only by the mighty being of great divine strength.
However, as the sole god-king of the Star World, if the Star God-King focuses his attention on a certain place, he can also sense the existence of those who chant his name to a certain extent.
The convergence of gazes signifies that the Star God King has already focused his attention on the Star Empire, secretly monitoring the presence of those reciting his name.
Sensing the gazes gathering, Luo Tian waved his left hand, and the Eastern Peak Imperial Seal quietly appeared in his palm.
The underworld, divided into Yin and Yang, blocked that powerful gaze from the entire capital. The barrier of the world twisted, causing waves to surge in the Yellow Springs, and the mournful souls of the dead wailed and roared incessantly.
In a mere instant, the first clash was completed amidst the collision of the two worlds.
The powerful gaze seemed to have not anticipated this situation. Its gaze paused slightly, and then the invisible pressure that seemed to blend into the heavens and earth quietly disappeared.
The stars in the sky returned to normal.
The Imperial Seal of Dongyue slowly disappeared from Luo Tian's palm. With a meaningful smile, Luo Tian put his hands behind his back and walked leisurely towards the villa.
"Actually, I'm also very curious, how many layers of passive ability can a God-King gain?"
Chapter 179 Scissors and Rag Doll!
As night falls, the capital city remains brightly lit.
Especially at the top of the famous noble district of the capital, in the Sun King's Palace that has stood there for thousands of years, the illusory sun rising from the palace illuminates the surrounding area as if it were daytime.
The Sun King, who once held the position of the Sun God, left a trace of divinity in the palace, enough to keep this illusory sun shining for thousands of years, and all evil spirits would vanish without a trace under the sun's radiance.
Before the palace gates, guests dressed in splendid attire entered the hall amidst friendly conversations.
"Your Excellency, I didn't expect to see you here."
"You've come all the way from your fiefdom to attend this banquet, how could I possibly be late or absent?"
"This is a grand banquet that is rarely seen. I heard that the Red Sand Empire has sent Marquis Wengett this time. This is going to be quite a show."
"There are quite a few treasures from the five planes this time. I heard that some of these treasures will be bestowed after the trial. I wonder if I can get some good stuff."
......
Amidst the insincere exchanges, the nobles wore fake smiles that resembled masks.
Although the words were friendly, the probing never ceased.
Those who were able to enter this banquet were basically the powerful and influential figures in the entire Great Yin Empire.
Even some dukes and marquises sent representatives to the banquet, and the Marquis of Yueshan, one of the seven marquises, also attended the banquet in person.
For these powerful and influential figures, this banquet was undoubtedly a good opportunity to test each other's strengths and weaknesses.
With the current imperial power holding the upper hand, these nobles will inevitably have to choose between the council of nobles and the future empress.
For nobles, being a fence-sitter was not shameful; what mattered was gaining enough benefits.
While the nobles were testing each other, Luo Tian, accompanied by a young knight and maid, slowly walked out of his house.
When Luo Tian came to the banquet, he originally wanted Shuang Ye to find him a decent dress so he could try to blend into the atmosphere.
But then Luo Tian realized that he didn't like those nobles anyway, so there was no need to give them any face.
Besides, the Sun King's Palace, where the banquet was held, is strictly speaking Luo Tian's back garden. Have you ever seen anyone change clothes before going to their own back garden?
With that in mind, Luo Tian put on his usual white work jacket and went downstairs to the Sun King's Palace.
As soon as Luo Tian appeared in front of the palace, many people immediately turned their attention to him.
Those who could enter this place, whether nobles or servants, were not brainless. No one would look at Luo Tian with disdain just because he wasn't wearing formal attire.
On the contrary, everyone knows very well that those who are qualified to be mavericks are either fools or truly qualified to disregard the rules.
Those who were able to enter this place can basically be ruled out as the former, so those who remain can be considered to have Luo Tian's special abilities.
The nobles' gazes sharpened, and they then instructed their attendants to investigate Luo Tian's identity.
Luo Tian himself paid no attention to the speculations of the nobles around him and stepped into the hall.
At this moment, he was like a young man walking his dog in the community garden after get off work, looking around the back garden he had never been to before with great interest, while scolding the little knight beside him.
"You little rascal, did you know I was going to a banquet tonight, so you deliberately avoided eating dog food and wanted to save it for a proper meal at the banquet?"
The excited little knight suddenly widened his eyes and adopted a "How dare you slander someone's innocence?" attitude.
However, the way he couldn't help but glance around at the surrounding dining tables revealed the little guy's true thoughts.
Luo Tian was somewhat helpless. He had only left the little knight at the Juying Hall for two days, and the little knight seemed to have turned into a worm.
The first thing I do after dinner every day is turn on the TV and then chug down sugary drinks while watching it.
Occasionally, I'll save the dog food and cat food as snacks, eating them while chugging down sugary drinks and watching TV.
Luo Tian didn't mean he didn't want to feed the little knight good food. His purpose in feeding it cat food and dog food was to stimulate its desire for food so that it could one day break free from its cowardly nature.
But the little knight, who had been with Grandpa Qin and Ivy for two days, seemed to be growing more and more crooked, completely turning into a fat otaku.
With a hint of exasperation, Luo Tian lightly kicked the little knight and said irritably:
"Go find somewhere to eat by yourself! Remember not to cause any trouble for others."
With Luo Tian's permission, the little knight instantly darted to a nearby dining table, then grabbed a maid's leg and started whimpering as he pointed at the food on the table.
After a long and bewildered conversation with the little knight, the maid finally filled a plate with food for him and led him to a table in the corner of the hall to enjoy the meal.
After confirming that the young knight had not been bullied by the servants, Luo Tiancai turned his attention to the rare treasures displayed in showcases on both sides of the banquet hall.
While they are described as rare and precious treasures, the most crucial element lies in the words "rare" and "unique." The truly essential treasures were either intercepted by powerful and influential figures or delivered directly to Yin Qianyu.
Most of the treasures that have survived are more symbolic than practical, or they are treasures that cannot be identified.
Luo Tian stared at these items one by one. He could clearly identify that the vast majority of these treasures should be produced in the five major planes, bearing a strong regional character.
The other things were all sorts of strange and varied things. Over a long period of time, Luo Tian even saw many familiar things, but few of them were intact.
"This thing...are you sure it's not an insect arrow? But what's with only half an arrowhead left? Could it be that Stand users have existed in this world before?"
"GN... The lettering is all worn away, it's in such a dilapidated state, is it a GN Drive? So I'm going to launch in Gundam form, huh!"
"Peace reigns throughout the land! Profits come at every turn! How did the Black and White Impermanence hat end up here?"
I didn't sense any extraordinary power; perhaps it's just a cosplay prop or something, but the workmanship is quite good.
"After the banquet, I'll ask Yin Qianyu for these hats and see if I can use them to create a Black and White Impermanence character for my underworld."
There were so many items on display, and they were arranged haphazardly. Luo Tian couldn't find the meat armor artifact he wanted for a while, so he just leisurely browsed through the items that caught his eye.
As he searched through more and more things, he did find a few good items, but none of them were of any use to Luo Tian, and he didn't see a single thing related to the League of Legends world.
Just as Luo Tian was beginning to feel disappointed with everything present, he suddenly caught a glimpse of blue out of the corner of his eye.
Luo Tian paused slightly and followed the gaze, only to see a pair of deep blue scissors on a display stand.
At the end of the scissors hung a small, cute blue-haired doll.
Chapter 180: A Gift for the Daughter of the Abyss (Part 2)
The familiar blue scissors and the familiar rag doll instantly transported Luo Tian back to an era when he faced off against the four top laners.
Once upon a time, Luo Tian also experienced the era when the top lane four sisters, the kill-stealing hand, and the rank-farming monsters dominated.
Even with the arrival of Jinfu later, Luo Tian, who was proficient in Nasus top lane, still believed that he was no less than anyone else.
I played defensively until level 7, then went back home and got a Sheen, and I could easily wipe out anyone.
However, everything changed after the appearance of a certain "Scissors Loli" who was known as the fifth of the "Top Lane Four Sisters".
