Chapter 171 Return to the City

Liu Jianan and his companions rested in the Elf Temple for one night, tasted the delicacies of the elves, and then set out to return to Benlang City the next morning.

Hu Jianye chewed an apple: "The fruit of the elves is delicious, but it can't be eaten as a meal?"

He looked hopeless: "Don't you know how desperate I was when I saw that breakfast was a bowl of fruit?"

Sanila said with a smile: "Many elves are vegetarians. They believe that eating vegetables and fruits can keep the body pure."

Liu Jianan asked curiously: "Does this make sense?"

Sanila shrugged: "If you ask me, eat when you should eat and drink when you should drink. Life is short, so you need to enjoy it in time."

She smiled and narrowed her eyes: "When I go back this time, I will develop the elves' breeding industry."

Liu Jianan can already imagine the scene of Sanila forcing the elves to eat meat.

Most of the elves participating in the Beast Festival this time are elves who can accept meat.

There are not many people, only more than 20 people including Sanila.

When everyone arrived at the Wolf Run City, Sanderna and Peter had already been waiting at the city gate to greet them.

Seeing Liu Jianan and the others coming, the two of them quickly came to the crowd and said, "Your Highness, Prince An, you are here."

Liu Jianan nodded slightly, and his eyes swept over Sanderna and fell on the banners on the wall of Wolf Run City.

There were many large gold-plated characters on them.

The one closest to the city gate was the banner that read "Welcome the triumphant return of the King of One Word and One Shoulder, and sincerely invite the elves to enjoy the grand event together."

Sanderna received the pigeon message from Liu Jianan yesterday.

The elves are close to nature, so it is natural for them to raise carrier pigeons. Even before the elves retreated from the world, selling carrier pigeons was one of their important sources of income.

Upon learning that the Elf Mother Tree had recovered and the elves were about to appear, he did not dare to neglect it and informed the king immediately.

Gilwater was not only a brave and skilled Orc warrior, but he also had his own way in diplomacy.

Therefore, he immediately ordered a huge amount of money to hold the All-Beast Festival!

——After all, they had received enough spoils from the Blood Clan.

The news of the Orcs' victory over the Blood Clan spread throughout the Nor Continent overnight.

The surrounding countries sent gifts one after another, but these gifts were still on the way, and the congratulatory notes had already been sent to the City Lord's Mansion as fast as possible.

As Sandner led everyone to the City Lord's Mansion, he said with contempt: "These city lords are the most flattering. When I begged them for help, they didn't even say a word. Now they all come to me."

Sanila was deeply touched: "Human nature is like this. The world is bustling for profit. Only fools will do things without profit."

Liu Jianan shook his head: "Teacher, why do I feel like you are implying me?"

Sanila laughed: "It's good for you to know."

However, after not seeing it for a day, Benlang City has changed greatly.

Needless to say, lights and decorations are hung everywhere, and vendors appear like bamboo shoots after rain, selling a wide variety of goods along the street.

The city was no longer as desolate as before. The faces of the orcs were filled with smiles and laughter everywhere.

Liu Jianan suddenly understood the meaning of the orc warriors' bloody battles.

Wasn't this what they were looking forward to? This prosperous age was what they wished for.

The children ran freely in the square with kites and windmills in their hands.

Some orcs showed their unique talents, such as animal training, singing and acrobatics, and won applause and cheers.

Thinking of the agreement with Xiao Duan, Liu Jianan summoned him out.

It was still early, and Duan Haiping began to worry: "Will he not be able to make it to the evening show?"

"Probably," Liu Jianan couldn't help but complain: "Look at you, you are not happy when I call you late."

"If I call you early, you will have something to say."

He pinched the man's cheek unhappily: "Mr. Duan, why are you so difficult to please?"

Duan Haiping grabbed the young man's hand and said: "Your Highness Prince An, it's not good to tease a decent man in public."

"Tease?" Liu Jianan took a breath of cold air.

What kind of play was he playing? At most, his hands were itchy.

Withdrawing his hand awkwardly, Liu Jianan said righteously: "Who asked you to make me angry?"

Sandner interrupted at the right time: "It's getting late, Your Highness Prince An, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion to see the king first."

Peter nodded in agreement: "Yes, if you are worried that the celebration will start too late, you can ask the king to announce the start of the celebration now."

Seeing Xiao Duan's eager eyes, Liu Jianan softened his heart: "Okay then."

He turned to everyone and said: "Go and have fun by yourselves, I will take the elves to see Gilwater. . "

Hu Jianye asked doubtfully, "Aren't you going to play with us?"

Duan Haiping hooked Liu Jianan's little finger and said in a voice that only they could hear, "You promised me!"

Liu Jianan glanced at him and compromised, "I have made arrangements."

Zhang Yaoyao glanced at their connected hands with an ambiguous look and put her arm around Hu Jianye's neck, "Let's go, I'll take you to eat something good!"

When it came to food, Hu Jianye was no longer hesitant. He was really afraid of the elves' all-fruit meal, "Then I want to eat meat!"

"No problem!"

Everyone dispersed, except Zhao Simo who stayed.

Duan Haiping showed his disdain: "Why don't you leave?"

Zhao Simo was too lazy to pay attention to him: "Little sweetie, I'll accompany you. I'm the best at eating, drinking and having fun. I will definitely bring you an unforgettable holiday."

Duan Haiping gritted his teeth: "Shut up!"

Zhao Simo insisted on continuing: "What does he know? He is just a summoned creature who can only be incompetent and furious."

Duan Haiping clenched his fists. If he hadn't

taken Liu Jianan into consideration, he would have taken action long ago. In this city, if he and Zhao Simo had a fight, the only one who would be laughed at would be His Royal Highness Prince An.

He had to endure it, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"Zhao Simo, you're going too far." Liu Jianan politely rejected him, "I've said before, I have an arrangement. Is your perception used to block out sounds you don't like to hear?"

Zhao Simo was silent for a moment. He

suddenly smiled: "Then I wish you a pleasant night?"

He didn't seem to care whether Liu Jianan responded to him or not, turned around and left.

"Ignore that psychopath." Duan Haiping stared at Liu Jianan closely, fearing that the other party would go back on his word.

Liu Jianan nodded slightly, and continued to follow Sandner forward, but in his heart he was thinking about Zhao Simo's actions just now.

He was actually reluctant to think about this old fox.

Because this guy is too cunning, no matter how he thinks, he can't figure it out.

Just like now, he didn't understand why Zhao Simo was angry.

Yes, the old fox was angry, he could see it.

It was rare, and a little bit puzzling.

"Let me see which distinguished guest is here."

When they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Gilwater had already been waiting at the door to welcome them.

He opened his arms and wanted to hug Liu Jianan, but was stopped by Duan Haiping.

"How stingy." Gilwater rolled his eyes at Duan Haiping, then turned his gaze to Sanila: "Your Excellency, the new Elf King, I am sorry for not welcoming you in person."

Sanila waved her hand: "Just go through the motions, I'm still waiting to watch tonight's show!"

Liu Jianan also echoed: "Hurry up and start, everyone is waiting impatiently."

Gilwater said readily: "Okay, since even His Royal Highness King An said so, Sandner, go and inform the Great Witch and other ministers that the festival celebrations can begin."
