Now that she had some free time, Xu Milu also had to start preparing for the banquet a month later. This was her first time hosting a small banquet as the hostess. She not only had to worry about the dishes and drinks, but also had to prepare the guest invitations in advance. Fortunately, Mo Xuan was fast, and within seven days, he had sent the invitations to all the guests' homes.
"Let me see who's attending the banquet..."
Xu Milu stretched out her finger and drew it through the air. Streams of spiritual light flew up and down with her movement. Outside the window, various kinds of spiritual light continued to arrive from all directions, most of them replies.
"I went to the Palace of the Third Prince of Qiantang first. Two carp demons answered the door. Those two little monsters were very timid. They ran away as soon as they saw me. I had to explain my background several times before they would let me in."
Mo Xuan stood to the side, gulping down the wine, seemingly extremely thirsty, and almost finished the sample wine that Xu Milu had brought out.
"I heard that Nezha, the Third Prince, went to Heaven to report on his duties and has not yet returned. It seems that he made an appointment to play chess with the Rabbit Star Lord and was delayed for a while. Those two little demons patted their chests and assured me that they would definitely deliver the invitation. I don't think there will be any problems. The mountain guardian of the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South Sea has some old friendship with me and passed on a message for me. Sudhana was very happy to hear that Madam Xu was going to hold a 'Lotus Banquet' and asked me to pass on a message to Madam Xu, saying that he had obtained the seeds of 'Zhu Yu Grass' and asked the little demon to bring them back."
Mo Xuan paused here, patted his chest with a hint of pride, and continued:
"And there's also my little demon cousin, Ao Moang. When he heard that Madam Xu had invited him, he specifically asked the guests who were going to the banquet. As soon as he heard that Grandpa Great Sage was also coming, he readily agreed. Speaking of which, when Grandpa Great Sage went west to fetch the scriptures, when he passed through the Blackwater River, my cousin even helped the Great Sage subdue that little alligator dragon!"
“I almost forgot if you hadn’t mentioned it. Prince Moang had a past relationship with my master. So, if we go by that, Little Tuolong is your cousin’s cousin, which means you’re related to him in some way.”
Xu Milu then dredged up this fragment from her memory; she vaguely remembered that the little alligator dragon had addressed Prince Moang as "cousin":
"I heard that Prince Moang's daughter held a first birthday celebration a few days ago. Unfortunately, I was very busy at the time and could only ask you to send a gift over for me. I didn't even get to see the little dragon girl."
"What's so difficult about that?"
Mo Xuan waved his hand dismissively and said:
"It's not too late for you to go after my sister-in-law gives birth to her child. Not to mention that my cousin has several concubines, just take my father, the Dragon King of the East Sea. My mother was heartbroken a few days ago because my father took a pig spirit as a concubine. I saw that the pig spirit's belly was round, and she was probably going to give birth in three months. If you want to pick up a child to play with, I can find a way to steal the baby that the pig spirit gave birth to. I have thirty-one sisters. If you like them, you can have them come and serve you another day."
He spoke nonchalantly, but Xu Milu was completely speechless.
Although she already knew that dragons were inherently lewd, her worldview was still challenged once again.
The Dragon King of the East Sea alone fathered thirty-one dragon daughters, no wonder Mo Xuan's title as the son of the Dragon King of the East Sea is so dubious.
This isn't childbirth! Even rabbits don't reproduce this many times!
Looking back at the Phoenix Clan in this realm, it's pitiful; the number of living Phoenixes can be counted on one hand. Is the Dragon Clan planning to win by sheer numbers and try to remove the "Dragon" category from the list of rare and protected animals?
She ended the topic with a dark expression and began preparing the menu for the banquet.
The idea of hosting a banquet wasn't something she came up with on a whim. After working in the magical world for a long time, she had collected a lot of novel ingredients. In addition, with the current oversupply of fast-growing tomatoes in the polar regions of the Wandering Earth world, she planned to promote more tomatoes to her largest customer group—the dragons—through some tomato-based dishes.
It was Ao Moang's monthly purchase of a fixed amount of spiritual vegetables that gave Xu Milu the inspiration. Although the spiritual energy contained in these spiritual vegetables had little effect on some highly skilled people, such as Sun Wukong and the Clean Altar Messenger, for a small dragon like Mo Xuan, eating spiritual fruits and vegetables was the most reliable way to obtain spiritual power.
Does the Dragon King of the West Sea have his own brothers?
His brother must have his own children, right?
Their son must have children of his own, right?
Even if only one or two dragon girls or dragon boys are particularly favored, Xu Milu's tomatoes will never have trouble finding buyers, and may even develop into a sustainable business.
Looking at the baskets of fast-growing polar tomatoes, Xu Milu took a deep breath, feeling as if her face had turned the color of tomatoes.
It's estimated that she won't touch tomatoes again for a long time to come.
Tomatoes are not selling well, and Phoenix is sighing in despair.

Preparing a banquet is a complicated and tedious process. It involves not only preparing the venue, theme, and menu in advance, but also preparing drinks for guests.
Immortals have long lifespans. Apart from daily cultivation and being dispatched by the Heavenly Court, they hold banquets when they have free time, which can easily last for ten days or half a month. Sometimes, it is not uncommon for a single banquet to last for a year or two. There is even a historical record of the Peach Banquet lasting for forty-nine years. It is not impossible for some immortals to get so drunk that they sleep for three to five hundred years.
Xu Milu had no intention of getting her guests drunk, so she carefully prepared four kinds of wine.
The first type is insect wine from the Gourmet Dimension. This wine is produced from the stomach sac of the [Brewing Insect]. The [Brewing Insect] eats all kinds of fruits and vegetables, and then produces a special enzyme in its body to promote the fermentation of the juice. In fifteen days, a bottle of pure fruit wine can be obtained. It tastes sweet and will only make you slightly tipsy.
