Chapter 188 Celebration Banquet
The bright moon and starlight shine on the earth, bringing a hint of calm light to the night sea. At this time, more than 500 ships are entering the Liyue Sea in a mighty manner, without slowing down at all.
After receiving the news from the ship, the flying reconnaissance agency flying over the sea area immediately returned and passed on the news of the expeditionary force's return.
At this time, on the distant coastal border, high walls that are hundreds of meters high govern the waters and beaches that stretch for thousands of miles on both sides, like a long dragon blocking enemies outside the sea and protecting the mountains, rivers and all living things within.
After receiving the message from Qianyanjun, the flying mechanism in the token, Qianyanjun, the chief coach guarding the area, did not delay at all and ordered the soldiers below to light countless lights to welcome the returning hero.
As time slowly passed, countless small dots appeared on the distant sea level. When the sun moved slightly westward, the countless small dots turned into countless huge ships. Various runes flashed on the mighty and resolute hulls, giving people an extremely terrifying sense of oppression.
The golden dragon pattern on the overturned boat swayed in the wind, like a real dragon soaring in the sky, ancient and sacred.
The ship docked at the shore, and countless steps dropped down from the huge hull. Countless Qianyan soldiers greeted their companions on the high walls and shouted for their victory.
"Old Lu, it's great that you're still alive."
"Hehe, luckily I was smart enough to activate the defense device of Qianyan Armor in advance. Those monster bastards couldn't even break my shield."
"Okay, stop bragging. If I hadn't pulled you up, you would have been beaten to death by those monsters with your shield broken."
After meeting up with their companions on the high wall, many of the Thousand Rocks soldiers who had participated in the expedition were bragging about their achievements. This made some of the Thousand Rocks soldiers who had never been to sea envious. However, they were just envious. After all, in such a dangerous place, if they made a mistake, the result would be the loss of their lives.
Those Qianyan soldiers who dared to go were qualified to brag, and no one doubted that. But if any of them was blind and spoke nonsense, insulting these soldiers who went to the battlefield to protect their families, what awaited him would not only be legal punishment, but even his family would be affected and looked down upon by many people.
But this kind of thing rarely happens, and those guys who privately insult the Qianyan Army who died in the war in their own name will eventually end up in jail for more than ten years. It is impossible for them to eat and drink for free in jail, and they must do a lot of labor to reduce their crimes.
If you behave well, you will be imprisoned for fewer years, and if you behave poorly, you will be imprisoned for more years. As long as the guy in there is not a happy kid, he will know immediately that he must work hard to behave, otherwise he will be stuck in there forever.
After listening to the conversation of the people below for a while, Ye Li stood up and flew into the sky, flying towards the two people who were waiting for him hundreds of meters above.
"Mom, Dad, we lived up to your expectations. We successfully seized Chilong's territory and severely injured him to the point of death. According to my estimation, he won't be able to get out for another two to three hundred years."
Ye Li reported the good news, but Gui Zhong waited for him to finish before grabbing Ye Li's shoulder. He patted Ye Li's body with his sleeves and said with a gloomy and ugly expression:
"Were you impulsive when you fought, and you got injured."
Ye Li's expression froze. Damn it! He forgot to ask Xiao to keep it a secret. He would definitely report the battle situation clearly to Gui Zhong and Morax, without missing a single detail.
Ye Li had cold sweat on his forehead. Although the wound was not that serious and had healed when he came back, the fact that he was injured was a fact and he did not hide it or ignore it for a while. Now he was caught red-handed. Even if he explained it clearly, he could not escape the reality of being scolded.
Gui Zhong pinched Ye Li's ear with one hand, his tone was worried but his words made people feel helpless.
"Xiao Li, you were lucky this time and you escaped danger, but what about the next time, and the next time after that? No one will be so lucky in their life, so you must think twice before you act. Do you hear me?"
Morax looked at Ye Li, whose expression gradually became tense and even revealed a wry smile, and thought the scene was quite amusing. However, after seeing with his own eyes that the child was fine, his worries subsided a little and were not shown on the surface like Hagentus's.
After Ye Li repeatedly assured him to think twice before acting, Gui Zhong put away his serious expression, a smile appeared on his face, and he said:
"Let's go. The victory celebration banquet is ready. Liu Yun can't wait to show off his newly invented automatic cooking machine."
Ye Li smiled and looked at Morax who had returned home. Both of them saw helplessness and relief in each other's eyes. The corners of their mouths rose slightly at the same time, giving people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.
Gui Zhong had already noticed the smiling expressions on the father and son's faces as they looked at each other. Knowing what they were thinking, she finally sighed helplessly, stretched out her hand and pulled them to fly towards Tianheng Mountain.
……
In the newly built house in the Rock King Palace in Tianheng Mountain, No. 2 Ye Li was lying on the dining table with a haggard face. His sleepy appearance made Gan Yu beside him laugh. His light blue hair was blown by the wind, and the sleeves of his ancient and beautiful robe fluttered, attracting the attention of many male immortal disciples who came here to wait for the banquet to begin.
However, due to the presence of a guy who had millions of talisman papers in one hand, no one dared to approach her, and the look of already being taken made many male immortal disciples cry that they were late.
Although they have admiration, it is not strong. As descendants of immortals, they are all handsome men and beautiful women. After looking at each other a few more times, they have long forgotten their previous thoughts. Compared with short-term liking, they believe in long-term companionship.
After all, the feelings between childhood sweethearts who grew up together cannot be easily destroyed by a peerless beauty who suddenly falls from the sky. After all, no one would believe the joke in the vernacular novel that the beauty who falls from the sky can defeat the childhood sweetheart.
Besides, they are immortals with extremely extended lifespans, so it is not difficult for them to find a partner. The only problem is whether they can get along well.
The banquet lanterns were lit, and plates of hot dishes were served on the table. Both the immortals and the children beside them were very quiet. No. 2 Ye Li, who had been lying on the table, also regained his spirit and looked out of the main door.
At this time, three figures appeared at the door. The first two were the two most prestigious monarchs of Liyue, and the latter was the Medicine Master who returned with a great victory and led the entire expeditionary force to defeat the Chilong of the Northern Territory. Being received and welcomed by the two monarchs was enough to prove his current status in Liyue.
No. 2 Ye Li nodded towards his original body at the door, and Ganyu waved in joyful welcome, with a smile on his face as pure as if it was about to bloom.
Ye Li waved over there, and followed Morax and Gui Zhong to the main dining table.
At this time, the dishes had been placed on both sides of the round table, and Marcosius sat down casually on the right side of the central dining table.
Most of the dishes today were prepared by Maxius and his clones, and each one was top-notch in terms of both level and quality.
At this moment, the white-haired girl Heulia, who was sitting opposite Marcosius on the left, smiled slightly, with a clear and gentle expression in her gray eyes, and nodded to Morax and others who were walking over.
Gui Zhong smiled back, then turned his head to look at the brown-haired, red-eyed King Ruota who was sitting next to Heulia and said:
"It seems that this victory has eased the intensity of the battlefield over there. Even you have time to come here for the celebration banquet."
"It was you who invited me. After all, it was clearly written on the firebird that hit my head that no friend can be missing." The Dragon King Ruta joked.
Morax, who was a little silent at this time, smiled, and took Gui Zhong and Ye Li to sit in the three main seats. He picked up the wine glass in front of the table and raised it forward, looking at the countless comrades who were looking here with himself as the center, and said in a calm and bold tone:
"Thanks to all of you for your company and assistance, we have won today. We must continue to work hard to end this chaotic war between demons and gods as soon as possible and return a bright and peaceful world to Liyue. Everyone, raise your glasses to celebrate!!!"
Morax's words pushed the atmosphere to a climax. Countless immortals and high-ranking generals among mortals raised their glasses to celebrate. They raised them horizontally with the void as the origin, moved forward a little, and clinked their glasses with Morax's cup in the void. Cheers immediately spread all around.
"Okay, okay, let's all be happy today. Come on, eat, don't let the food get cold."
Gui Zhong's words instantly calmed the crowd down, but no one was angry or upset. Instead, they felt at ease and happy. They enjoyed this harmonious atmosphere very much and picked up their chopsticks one after another. An inexplicable sense of solemnity appeared in front of each table, as if the chopsticks in their hands were weapons. They looked at their opponents with sharp eyes, and then the chopsticks moved, and the fight on the table began.
