After a hearty meal and drinks, everyone was in high spirits.
This extravagant dinner was less a meal and more a display of wealth.
Behind each dish lies the kingdom's top culinary skills and rarest resources, all for the sake of satisfying Lin Feng's appetite.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time."
Su Wanqing glanced at the holographic terminal on her wrist, which resembled a stardust bracelet made of light and shadow, and softly reminded her, "Film director Zhang Siji and his team are already waiting for your judgment at the 'Starfall Pavilion'."
"Hmm." Lin Feng elegantly wiped his mouth with a napkin woven from "cloud silk" and carrying a faint fragrance, then stood up: "Then let's go see how they've filmed my story."
Upon hearing this, all the concubines rose to their feet, their eyes filled with anticipation and excitement.
For them, being able to watch an epic film starring their man is undoubtedly a novel and honorable experience.
Inside the palace, there were naturally dedicated passageways leading to various functional areas. Led by attendants, the group entered a private elevator. This elevator was not a traditional cabin-style structure, but a sphere made entirely of transparent crystal, suspended in the vast atrium.
As everyone entered, the sphere rose silently, revealing the surrounding palace scenery, as if one were in a moving, ethereal palace.
The elevator finally stopped at the top floor of the "Qianyuan Palace". A huge door, made of a single piece of obsidian and engraved with the trajectory of stars, silently slid open to both sides in front of them.
Beyond the gate lies Lin Feng's private cinema – "Starfall Pavilion".
The moment they stepped inside, everyone held their breath.
This place is less like a movie theater and more like a small astronomical temple.
The entire space is a perfect dome structure.
Above the dome is not a ceiling, but a huge, ultra-high-definition curved screen called the "Eye of Deep Space".
At this moment, the screen is simulating a vast universe, with countless stars slowly rotating, nebulae changing, and light bands swaying. Its realism makes people feel as if they are really on the bridge of a spaceship traveling in the depths of the universe.
The floor was covered with an unknown, deep blue carpet that felt as soft as walking on clouds. The air was filled with a special incense blended from various rare spices, capable of calming the mind.
Inside the cinema, there were no rows of seats. Instead, there were a dozen or so individual, enormous sofas that resembled thrones.
Each sofa is covered with the finest fur of a "snowy beast" and equipped with a state-of-the-art "bionic sensing system".
Qian Xiaoxiao curiously sat down first and immediately let out a comfortable sigh: "Wow! This chair...it seems to be alive!"
The moment she sat down, the active bio-gel inside the sofa made perfect adjustments based on her body shape, weight, and even the curvature of her spine, supporting her in the most relaxed and comfortable posture.
Meanwhile, a screen on the sofa armrest lights up, displaying dozens of options such as "massage mode," "temperature adjustment," and "aromatherapy selection."
Ruan Mengtian was more interested in the service system next to the sofa.
She tapped a few times on the light screen on the armrest and selected the "snacks" option.
A small table made of white jade slowly rose from the ground next to the sofa. On it was a glass of "Ice Flame Fruit" juice that was emitting a chill and a small dish of freshly baked "Moonlight Fungus" cookies that exuded a rich milky aroma.
Lin Feng casually sat down on the largest "throne" in the very center.
This sofa is entirely dark gold, with armrests carved from warm, black jade, which adds to its noble appearance.
As soon as he sat down, Su Wanqing and Qin Lan naturally sat on the sofa next to him, one on each side, while the other concubines also chose their preferred seats.
At the very front of the theater, an elderly man with gray hair and an incredibly fervent gaze was leading his creative team, kneeling respectfully on the ground.
He is Zhang Siji, the chief director of the film "The Descent of the Gods" and a leading figure in the cultural world of the Kingdom.
"Your humble servant Zhang Siji, along with the entire creative team of 'The Descent of Gods,' pays homage to Your Majesty!"
His voice trembled slightly with excitement, "To bring Your Majesty's great deeds to the screen is the highest honor of our lives. The film is crude and may not be able to capture even a fraction of Your Majesty's divine power. We humbly beseech Your Majesty to make your judgment!"
"Get up," Lin Feng's voice was calm yet authoritative. "Let's begin."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhang Siji felt as if he had been granted a pardon and respectfully stepped aside. He gestured to the control panel, and the lights in the entire "Starfall Pavilion" instantly dimmed. The simulated starry sky overhead also turned into a deep darkness.
The next second, a long and grand melody resounded from all directions.
On the dark dome, two large characters, composed of golden light and exuding a sense of holiness and power, slowly emerged:
[Divine Descent]
The movie has officially begun.
The entire film is magnificent, and its plot and other aspects are exquisitely crafted.
The embellishment of Lin Feng goes so far as to resemble the creation of a god.
Many women watched with rapt attention.
Especially after seeing the tragic state of the rescued survivors, they were all deeply moved.
Liu Yanxi pursed her lips tightly. She recalled her miserable days from back then.
Looking at the man before her, she realized that it was she who had given this world a new life. This gratitude and admiration had seeped into her very bones.
Lin Feng himself, however, was getting somewhat drowsy while watching.
For him, these so-called "great achievements" were nothing more than some things he did casually while adapting to this new world.
It's like an adult walking into a kindergarten and casually helping the children build blocks and tidy up their toys.
This is an incredible feat for children. But for this adult, it's just a trivial pastime.
“Your Majesty,” Su Wanqing’s voice rang softly in his ear, “What do you think…?” She had been observing Lin Feng’s expression, trying to guess his thoughts.
"The special effects are pretty good," Lin Feng gave a fair assessment. "They're better than I expected."
"..."
For a moment, Su Wanqing didn't know how to respond.
This epic masterpiece, which consumed countless resources of the kingdom and embodied the hard work of top artists, was merely considered by His Majesty to have "not bad special effects"?
“But…” Lin Feng changed the subject.
"Just what?" Su Wanqing immediately tensed up.
“This actor,” Lin Feng pointed to the handsome male lead on the screen, “is acting too hard.”
"Force?"
“Look at his eyes,” Lin Feng said casually, “they are always full of so-called ‘perseverance,’ ‘compassion,’ and ‘anger.’ Actually, I wasn’t thinking anything at the time.”
The film ends in a peaceful atmosphere.
The world was unified, and all people were united. Lin Feng ascended the throne and established a great kingdom.
The images show happy smiles on people's faces, a prosperous city, and children running in the sunshine.
Finally, the camera slowly zooms out and freezes on the back of Lin Feng, who stands alone atop the palace, overlooking the prosperous world he created.
His silhouette, stretched long in the afterglow of the setting sun, appeared somewhat lonely, yet filled with supreme majesty.
Accompanied by grand music, the movie officially came to a close.
A long silence fell over the entire "Starfall Pavilion." The lights on the dome slowly came on, and the simulated starry sky reappeared.
The concubines were still deeply immersed in the emotional impact of the film, unable to extricate themselves from it for a long time.
Their eyes were a little moist.
"His Majesty……"
After a long silence, Qian Xiaoxiao was the first to break it. She threw herself into Lin Feng's arms, her pretty face streaked with tears, and said in a voice filled with adoration and on the verge of sobs, "You...you are so great! To be your woman is the greatest fortune of my life, no, of all eternity!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ruan Mengtian ran over and hugged Lin Feng's other arm. "The movie was so good! I want to watch it ten more times!"
Liu Yanxi and Shen Jiaqi also came over. Although they weren't as excited, their eyes were filled with an unprecedented, fervent love and admiration for Lin Feng.
Lin Feng, who was surrounded by the crowd in the center, had no expression on his face.
He glanced at director Zhang Siji, who was kneeling not far away, waiting for his "sacred judgment" with an expectant yet apprehensive look.
"Well done," Lin Feng finally said.
Upon hearing these four words, Zhang Siji felt as if he had heard heavenly music, and he was so excited that he trembled all over and almost fainted.
"As a propaganda film for ordinary people, it's enough," Lin Feng continued. "It's full of the heroism, personal struggle, and cheap sentimentality they like to see. It can effectively enhance public cohesion and my personal worship. Su Wanqing."
"Your Majesty, I am here."
"This film will be shown in all cinemas in the kingdom starting today. The ticket price is set at one gold coin. So that all citizens can see it."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Su Wanqing replied respectfully.
"As for you..." Lin Feng's gaze swept over the concubines, and a playful smile, typical of men, finally appeared on his lips. "Don't forget our bet from earlier today. I won."
Upon hearing this, all the women's pretty faces flushed bright red.
"Your Majesty..." Their voices were so charming that they could almost drip water.
This night was destined to be a sleepless one.
