Chapter 94

Su Yu looked at Bai Xiaowei with a half-smile.

"Uh, I'm different!" Bai Xiaowei quickly defended herself.

"Oh? In what way?" Su Yu raised an eyebrow.

Bai Xiaowei said solemnly, "I am your loyal lackey who will serve you with utmost dedication!"

"I'm willing to be your ox or your horse!"

"Don't be ridiculous; you just want to be the Empress, right?" Su Yu was somewhat speechless.

"Hehe."

"Nothing can be hidden from a great figure like you."

"Stop sucking up."

"Hehe."

Bai Xiaowei followed Su Yu like this, strolling and chatting.

Then they headed to the Central Tower in Jingcheng.

Tonight, the Blue Star Monarch would hold a celebration banquet for the new generation of lords there.

Although such a celebration banquet is held every year for every session.

Yet the scale of this celebration banquet was extremely huge.

None of the new-generation lords knew why.

Moreover, those invited had been filtered from provinces down to cities.

For instance, Bai Xiaowei, who cleared the monster tide very quickly, received an invitation.

For instance, Su Yu, who had sold the legendary Dragon Eye, also received an invitation.

At dusk.

On the wide roads, cars of various styles shuttled back and forth, like a colorful river flowing.

Su Yu and Bai Xiaowei arrived at the entrance of the Central Tower.

Street lamps lined both sides, and the branches of the tall, neat plane trees interlaced.

Standing at the entrance was a row of carved decorative screens.

The two stepped on the deep red carpet and, led respectfully by the attendants, arrived at a great hall.

The hall was elegant, arranged with solemn quietness; the wreath-shaped chandeliers were bright yet not glaring.

There were many seats on both sides; Su Yu and Bai Xiaowei casually found a corner and sat down.

Not long after, more and more people took their seats inside the hall.

Today,

those who could come here were undoubtedly the best among the best.

They came from all over the world,

all lords of the new generation with outstanding performances.

Because it was vaguely rumored that the Blue Star Monarch had prepared extremely generous celebration gifts for this generation of lords,

none of those invited refused.

The hall was full, with nearly a hundred and some people.

They represented the chosen ones of the new generation of Blue Star lords, or rather, the darlings of the Ten Thousand Worlds Battlefield.

If they did not meet an early end, their future development would be extremely promising.

Even if they did not become lords later, they could become great figures on Blue Star.

Suddenly, Su Yu felt a hostile gaze.

He turned his head forty-five degrees toward the front-left,

and saw in the first row opposite,

a young girl in a white dress staring at him with bared teeth.

That was... Gu Linger?

Su Yu did not understand why.

He and the Blue Star Princess had only met once.

They had met back at the National Art of War competition.

How... did she look at him as if he were an enemy?

Su Yu averted his gaze, pretending not to see, yet doubt arose in his heart.

"Dead Su Yu, stinky Su Yu, seeing this Princess and not even greeting me..."

Gu Linger gritted her teeth and muttered.

Just then,

a tall, imposing man walked to the high platform in the center of the hall.

The whispering voices inside the hall immediately grew much quieter.

He had thick eyebrows and a square face, looked majestic, and wore a simple white shirt.

He was the Blue Star Monarch, Gu Xiaowu.

Though his name seemed petty, his appearance and status were extremely grand.

Moreover, as the Blue Star Monarch, few dared to address him by his given name.

"Today, I am very grateful that everyone could accept the invitation and come."

The Blue Star Monarch spoke, his gaze sweeping over the entire hall, his eyes carrying a smile.
