"Let's go this way, it's closer." Xiao Yubing took Luo Lanxi's hand and walked up the mountain path.

The two walked along the jade-carved fence, turned through several archways, and returned to the venue. However, compared to the initial vacancy, there were now many talented people sitting here for the banquet.

"You are back, please take a seat now. Luo Lan and Yu Bing can sit at the main table together." Queen Zhaoyue waved to the two and gave them instructions.

Afterwards, with the eunuch reading the order, the two of them entered the venue hand in hand.

"Princess Linbing has arrived~The Golden Sparrow Witch has arrived~"

The loud voice immediately broke the noisy conversation in the venue. Everyone turned around and focused their eyes on the two people.

Princess Lin Bing, dressed in a blue and black palace dress, was still stunning. Her beauty and strength combined made many admire her. The other girl who came with her also attracted many eyes.

This elegant, dreamy young woman in silver hair and a golden dress was being seen by the public for the first time, and her appearance stunned and captivated countless people. It must be said that, adorned with her splendour, Loran Hill completely radiated her charm. For a moment, like a magnet, everyone's gaze could not be averted, and they could only follow her steps, as if their entire figure was firmly etched into their memories.

Who is she, what is her name, I want to know everything about her.

I don’t know how many people suddenly had this idea in their minds, shouting loudly in their hearts, making people impatient but also excited and inspired.

"Who is this Goldfinch Priestess?"

After a long time, Su Denglou turned around and asked the person sitting at the same table, who was also the first male at the table to regain consciousness.

"Is this the dynasty priestess of this generation? It seems that the current royal family has found an incredible helper." Yi Miaoxin's eyes were dark and deep.

"She is my junior sister, Fairy Luolan from our Xiangyu Sect." Gu Lie finally spoke at this time. In fact, he was also amazed and shocked for a while just now.

"Perhaps her strength is still a little insufficient, but her fellow disciples are very optimistic about her. She will also be the representative of the faction in the future." The older generation of the Xiangyu Sect is now gradually retiring, and power has been handed over to the generation of Jinhua and Gu Lie.

“Golden Sparrow Priestess, how is this possible…” Zhuo Fengtong looked at the girl who seemed to be only at Sequence 5 strength, his face full of disbelief.

As the highest title for a priestess in the dynasty, only eleven people have received such an honor since the founding of the country, and most of them are people with extremely high qualifications and prestige. However, this one looks so young and her strength is not enough to convince others.

Unlike the others present, Zhuo Fengtong was considered a descendant of the imperial system. Although he hadn't grown up in Luojing, he was well-versed in the imperial titles and positions within the system. Therefore, he was even more aware of how difficult it was to ascend to such a high position. Even if the emperor wanted to confer a title, the other members of the imperial family, ministers, and aristocratic families would not easily agree.

This is equivalent to establishing a new faction within the court and adding a seat. Even if it does not give real power, it will bring many impacts.

Unfortunately, he was currently in the middle of the Burning Tail banquet, and could not ask many things in time. He had no choice but to keep them in mind for the time being and prepare to inquire carefully later.

On the other side, under the gaze of everyone, Xiao Yubing brought Luo Lanxier to the round table made of amber jade in the middle and sat down slowly.

This seems to confirm the rumor that this goldfinch priestess is from the royal family.

Since the Emperor had not yet arrived and there was still a short while before the banquet began, the talented people on the terrace below quickly started to communicate with each other. Everyone was asking questions, and the identity that Gu Lie had just introduced also spread quickly.

So in an instant, everyone knew the identity of this girl.

A young disciple from the Xiangyu Sect, the savior of the disaster in the Sunset Mountains, of royal blood, and the newly appointed Goldfinch Priestess.

"A beautiful woman is peerless and alluring, like the bright moon illuminating the night."

Some people were moved and admired, some were envious and jealous, and some were greedy and wanted to possess them. Many eyes kept meeting on these two girls.

At this time, the sound of jade rings colliding came from a distance, followed by one shout after another.

"Welcome the Holy Emperor of Heavenly Law~"

The Plantagenet Emperor has arrived.

Twelve guards wearing golden armor led the way, followed by two rows of female officials holding octagonal palace lanterns, and further back were close ministers holding scrolls and red brushes, and finally the golden-crowned emperor who walked slowly towards them.

His face was calm and composed, and just the slow glance he gave gave one an indescribable sense of oppression.

"Everyone, please stand up."

At these gentle words, everyone slowly raised their bent bodies, but still didn't dare to look directly up. However, Xiao Yubing and Luo Lanxier, sitting at the central table, looked at the king with a normal attitude.

Seeing his granddaughter Xiao Yubing looking at him, the king was already used to it and was not surprised. However, the girl with silver hair and golden dress beside her aroused his interest.

"You must be Lorraine."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Loran Hill lifted her skirt and saluted again.

"Okay." He nodded slightly, then looked at the people in the field, looking at these geniuses from all over the world one by one.

"You are all talented people of the dynasty. You have studied and practiced hard in the past. Now you have won and are included in the list. It is a blessing to be able to realize your ambitions."

"Today's banquet is to pray for world peace, to thank heaven and earth, and to congratulate you all for passing the imperial examination and seizing the sword from the Red Tower."

"I hope you will not forget your ambition today, move forward courageously, and build a prosperous world together!" The king picked up the golden wine cup and spoke to everyone.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Then, everyone present raised their glasses and drank together.

"The banquet begins."
