As dawn approached, she gritted her teeth in anxiety, unsure of what to do.

Diefang pulled Wenxin and the others along, and they soon followed.

As Chenxi watched Diefang walk away, she couldn't help but tilt her head, her delicate face filled with confusion.

The next moment, everyone in the room fell silent.

"Greetings, senior."

Diefang cupped her hands in greeting, and Wenxin, Xinyu, and Xiaofangying followed suit in a very good manner.

Xiao Qi came up to them and ruffled the hair of Die Fang, who was in the lead: "Enjoy the banquet, and... has your master arrived yet?"

Diefang shook her head: "I don't know, Master didn't say anything."

The dawn fell silent...

Of course, the bad thing she had just predicted didn't happen, which should have been a good thing, but she felt only dazed.

They knew the powerful figures of the Human King's Palace! They had known each other for a long time!

Cheng Yao, who witnessed this scene, felt so embarrassed that she froze on the spot.

The others were also slightly surprised. Their only curiosity about the four was about who their master was, that the people of the Human King Palace would be so anxious for them. The master himself hadn't even shown up, yet his mere disciple was enough to make her stand up to greet him. Perhaps only the Human King himself was qualified to do so.

The only alien present, Linglong of the Elf race, kept a close eye on Diefang and her companions.

She saw the four people in Naixi's memories and knew their identities...

Since the disciples have all appeared, their master will surely come out as well.

Xiaoqi quickly said goodbye to Diefang and the others because she still had to host the banquet, which had not yet officially started.

I've been waiting for that time.

As Chenxi watched Xiaoqi leave and saw that Diefang and the others were safe and sound, she couldn't help but nudge Diefang's shoulder.

"Do you know that person from earlier? Also, who is your master? Why is the King's Palace so concerned about him?"

Upon hearing this, Diefang nodded slightly, indicating that she understood. She then lowered her head and pondered. According to the case, she knew her master's identity. Wenxin had told her that her master was the Human King here. However, based on the events of Chenxi and the banquet, the Human King had been missing for several years. She was considering whether to reveal her master's identity.

Xinyu quietly followed behind Diefang. She noticed that the green-haired elf was watching them with a wicked smile, hesitating whether to tell Diefang.

Wenxin practically held her nose in the air: "Hehehe, our master is the King of Humans."

Diefang immediately smacked Wenxin on the head, accusing her of speaking without thinking.

However, it was clear that Chenxi did not show any sign of believing it.

Wenxin, having been hit hard, understood what it meant and cleverly changed the subject: "Didn't you say there was food? Why isn't there any now?"

Chenxi assumed they were undergoing training under orders from their master to conceal their identities, so she didn't press the matter further.

Faced with Wenxin's questioning, Chenxi calmly replied, "It hasn't started yet."

Next, Chenxi explained the details of today's banquet to them.

Wait a moment, the time has come. The person in charge of the Human King's Palace, the one who just spoke, the woman known as Seventh Sister, will open the door to the central hall.

Of all those present, only those who caught the eye of the Human King's Palace could obtain an entry token. People like her master were almost guaranteed to receive one, but she wouldn't have that opportunity.

Obtaining a token means you are qualified to participate in or observe many major developments in the future of humanity.

Although there were more than ten people present, only a few of them would actually receive a token.

At that time, in order to express their apologies to the remaining people, the Human King's Palace will serve a great deal of spiritual meat and famous dishes, without any limit.

Of course, this is all normal. I don't know why this year, more than half of the top human forces have come, but there are only ten tokens. It is inevitable that some people will be blocked outside.

Meanwhile, in a room at an inn.

Haotian, with his white hair, and Xiaohei, with his black hair, sat facing each other.

Haotian, like a well-bred young lady who had never left home, leisurely and elegantly sipped her tea.

Across from her stood the elegant and beautiful dragon girl, Xiao Hei, her stunning face beaming with smiles as she rested her chin on her hand and gazed at Haotian.

"So, have you figured out how to make a grand entrance later? To intimidate those petty villains? Do you want me to transform into my original form, stand on my dragon head, and give them a super invincible, epic-level historical repetition to scare them to death?"

Upon hearing this, Haotian simply rolled his eyes at Xiao Hei.

However, Xiao Hei was right; she needed to properly deter some petty scoundrels.

Everyone treated her as if she were dead.

Xiao Hei saw a fierce glint in Haotian's eyes. Back when Haotian was constantly diverting his power to build the statue of the Human King, she felt as distressed as if she had finally raised a daughter, only to have her money and sex cheated by a scumbag.

Now, Haotian is quietly and slowly reclaiming his power, just like a daughter who has become sensible and realized her mistakes, and begins to take revenge on the scumbag man one by one.

Xiao Hei wished he could have Haotian Flying Dragon ride right in their faces and slap each of those selfish and hypocritical people across the face.

However, she no longer has the right to look at Haotian from the perspective of an elder... If, if she hadn't chosen to run away back then, Haotian would probably be more optimistic now, and like Diefang and the others, call herself Sister Xiaohei.

The glint in Xiao Hei's eyes dimmed slightly, but quickly disappeared.

Haotian noticed this and coughed lightly: "No need for anything too complicated, just follow the steps."

Haotian's white hair swayed slightly as he put down his teacup and gazed at Xiao Hei quietly for a long time.

"There's no need to dwell on the past. I've lived half my life for hatred. Being with you now is one of the few times I can relax and unwind. And now everything has settled down. We just need to proceed step by step."

Xiao Hei remained silent for a long time, gazing at the darkness outside the window... She could not see any light.

She wanted to drink.

"Stop drinking tea, how about some alcohol? I still prefer the dashing way you drink."

Haotian lowered his head and shook his head: "I'm doing business tonight, so I won't drink. If you want to drink, wait until tomorrow."

Xiao Hei felt a deep sense of melancholy and sadness.

Since Xiao Hei didn't speak again, the scene fell silent once more, with only the sound of Hao Tian blowing on the hot tea to cool it down remaining.

The two looked at the same night sky, where lights flickered and every household seemed bustling with activity, but neither of them could see their own light.

"Can you think about me, Chu Xinqiao, and Diefang?"

...

"It won't matter if you seal one more memory. I'll have a way to deal with them when the time comes."
