The evil emperor, who knew the truth behind him, suddenly sighed.
He clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd who had been drawn to him and said, "Now that our business is concluded, my wife and I will take our leave. May we meet again in the future."
After speaking, they gracefully departed with Gongliang Ruiyou. Everyone quickly bowed to the two of them, and no one dared to stop them from leaving.
I followed the others and bowed to the two of them, but at that moment, Gongliang Ruiyou's voice transmission came through: "Palace Master, please be patient. We'll go find some medicine to heal your injuries and will be back as soon as possible."
After listening, I silently gave her a big thumbs up. No wonder she's a witch who's lived for hundreds of years; she's certainly seen a lot.
I know what medicine can cure this injury. Even if it can't fully heal, as long as it can heal by 10% or 20%, I can start healing myself.
Besides those who came to pick me up, each family also sent representatives to offer their condolences, hoping to become familiar with me. So, they were basically all their future direct descendants.
Bai Jiaxuan of the Bai family
Ma Shih-hao of the Ma family
Liu Mingxuan of the Liu family
Jin Anlan of the Jin family
Basically, all the prominent families in Fengtian have sent representatives; other second-tier families aren't even qualified to come forward.
However, a member of a small family followed them in. It was Xue Lingling, the girlfriend of the guy with the money. She was an illegitimate daughter of the Xue family, and she brought her older brother, Xue Jinyu, with her.
I don't know his older brother, but I do know Xiaoling, and Xiaoling is now managing the catering department of my Brilliant Star City restaurant.
I turned around and gave him a kick, telling him to go say hello to his girlfriend. This guy was covered in bandages and had his arms hanging down.
This kid got hit by a sea monster while saving the waiter. He didn't die, but all the bones in his body were shattered. If it were any other force, he probably would have died.
But for me, it only took a few days of lying down; by the time I disembarked, I was already able to get ashore.
He was overjoyed and ran off happily as soon as he got home and rested for a while.
I also said hello to my brother-in-law, and then dragged the rest of the group to Brilliant Star City for a victory celebration.
They've accompanied me on this long journey, and so many people have died, so I should at least treat them properly.
The representatives from each organization all shared the same idea: they were there to build relationships. What I said was exactly what everyone wanted to hear.
They were all very enthusiastic and followed me to the Brilliant Star City, canceling almost a whole floor of reservations to entertain everyone.
Xingcheng also started getting busy, making phone calls to those who had booked banquets to communicate and conduct public relations, while preparing banquets to entertain important guests.
Ermin and his group quickly brought people over to help greet the guests. The most interesting were the Zuo family.
They always acted as if they were the hosts, and when everyone saw Zuo Hanshi helping my mother walk around, they just showed a lewd smile.
I saw Han Shi's persistence, so I didn't say anything. After all, she's a young woman, and she has such awareness.
What am I, a grown man, afraid of? I gave Hanshi a reassuring look and started greeting everyone.
I not only have many enemies, but also quite a few friends. Old Wei from the trade union, Hu Yanzhuo from the military, and Director Chen Changgeng from the public security bureau all rushed over after hearing the news.
They are all elders, and although they didn't come to pick me up at the airport, I still sent someone to invite them.
However, the banquet was too high-level, and none of my relatives were of a high enough rank, so I didn't force them to attend. Only a few of my older brothers and sisters came to acknowledge someone.
