The gaze beneath the cloak seemed to glance at her, but she didn't speak.
Huang Bei Yue looked at Dong Ling with satisfaction. That's right, just like that, just deal with it coldly.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty to have gained the help of an expert. Our Nan Yi Country will definitely rule the world in the future. Long live the Emperor!"
Numerous government officials stood up to toast. The Emperor was jubilant, raising the wine cup and drank it all in one mouthful. Then he made the palace maid fill it up again, turning his body to Dong Ling.
"Being able to get your help, We are deeply honored. This cup I will drink in respect for you."
Dong Ling stood up, raising the wine cup up with a hand from under the cloak. Using a sleeve to cover her face, she drank it in one gulp. The group of officials immediately sent praises.
"Good! Master Xi Tian has a good capacity for liquor ah!"
Just drinking one cup and she has a good capacity for liquor? These officials' ability to flatter other people were quite good ah!
They repeated flattering comments continuously, making the expressions of the experts sitting on the other side very ugly!
Xiao Qi Yuan stroked his beard and coldly humphed. The person next to him said, "Venerable Xiao, I heard that you recently went cultivating in seclusion. Presumably, you have already reached the realm of an eight-star summoner. Why don't you go up and try this Xi Tian, test her skills?"
Xiao Qi Yuan was an old fox. How could he be tricked so easily? He immediately stroked his beard and laughed, "This old man is already old, why argue with the younger generation?"
The power of this Xi Tian had spread throughout Lin Huai City. With the Ice Luan Spirit Bird, which was a super spirit beast, and the ability to kill a rank 11 red spider spirit beast in one shot, this kind of strength, he didn't dare go and look for trouble.
"Humph! Is Venerable Xiao afraid? That small child, her reputation has been spread around like a god, making you old foxes afraid!"
The other one had a ruddy complexion and was around sixty years old, yet he looked around his thirties. He coldly humphed.
By mastering their summoning ability to a certain level, a person was able to maintain their youthful appearance forever.
This man's appearance and age had such a huge disparity, one must know that he had almost reached nine-star high level.
"If Brother Sima has such confidence, then you can go up and try," Xiao Qi Yuan said happily.
Nonconformity was punished. When he cultivated, he didn't only cultivate his skills, he also cultivated his mind.
Sima Gui Yan was indeed one of Nan Yi country's very best experts. His strength was only second to the Crown Prince's teacher. It was a pity that his character was too impulsive, unable to calm himself.
Moreover, this person was particularly proud and arrogant. He believed that he was the best in the world, not putting a lot of experts in his eyes.
This Xi Tian who came out of nowhere recently was very popular. Being in the limelight, even the Emperor personally set up the feast just to win her over. How could Sima Gui Yan be happy with that?
"Humph! This old man will go and test her out. Sima Gui Yan picked up the wine jug, took a big sip, crudely wiped his mouth clean, smashed the jug and stood up.
His action was aggressive, immediately drawing the attention of others. Even the Emperor who was happy turned to look at him.
"What's the matter, Minister Sima?" The Emperor asked with a smile.
Sima Gui Yan was one of his most capable experts. So it was only natural for him to treat an expert in an amicable manner. Although he would occasionally be disrespectful, the Emperor could not be bothered about it.
Nowadays, the strong were always right.
Holding his two large hands in a fist, Sima Gui Yan walked up and roughly said, "Your Majesty, today's palace banquet is a happy occasion, this minister wants to liven things up!"
"Oh?" Hearing that these arrogant summoners wanted to liven things up in the banquet, the Emperor immediately beamed with joy, "Minister Si Ma, how do you want to liven things up?"
Sima Gui Yan pointed his large hands at Dong Ling and said: "I want to challenge her!"
