Yan An walked to the throne under the gaze of everyone.
"Welcome everyone to the demon race's celebration. Enjoy your meals and drinks."
Everyone responded by clasping their fists.
"I wish the demon race will prosper, and I also wish the demon king eternal youth and lasting blessings!"
"May the demon race prosper and flourish under the leadership of the Empress, and become a powerful force to be reckoned with!"
"I wish Her Majesty the Empress great blessings and a long and prosperous demon race!"
"I hope the demon tribe can coexist peacefully with all parties, and that Her Majesty the Empress will be content!"
Yan An said with a slight smile, "Thank you all for your blessings. Please take a seat."
As Yan An finished speaking, the people who were originally standing and whispering to each other returned to their seats.
Then, the servants filed in, holding in their hands plates of delicious food that were both beautiful and fragrant.
At the same time, one dancer after another with graceful figures and beautiful faces walked forward lightly.
They were dressed in gorgeous flowing dance dresses, and their every move showed their graceful demeanor.
At this moment, the guests were immersed in this joyful and peaceful atmosphere, chatting and laughing with each other, and toasting each other with fine wine. The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.
Mu Jin, wearing a veil and a gauze, quietly walked to Yan An's side, bent down, and whispered to her in a low voice.
"Yan An, I wonder if Jing Zhi has arrived?"
Upon hearing this, Yan An turned his head slightly and quickly scanned every corner of the crowd.
When the eyes passed over the mysterious man in the mask.
She paused for a moment, but quickly looked away and shook her head.
"Hey... Mom, I didn't see him appear."
Hearing this answer, Mu Jin couldn't help but reveal a look of deep disappointment on his face.
But she quickly adjusted her mood, nodded and said, "Well, in that case, I'll go down first."
"Okay, take care, Mom."
In the blink of an eye, it was already noon.
At this moment, the scorching sun in the sky casts its scorching rays onto the earth.
As this grand celebration gradually came to an end, the dancers left the stage one after another.
The Young Master of the Outer Palace, who had been sitting quietly in his seat, suddenly stood up.
His narrow eyes looked straight at where Yan An was.
Deep in his eyes, there flashed a trace of barely perceptible surprise and a look of greed that was hard to conceal.
He clasped his hands together, bowed to Yan An, and said loudly, "Empress Yan An, to be honest, I have admired you for a long time!"
"This time, besides celebrating the unification of the demon race, I also want to ask the empress for marriage and forge a friendly alliance with the demon race."
Hearing this, Yan An's expression was as calm as water.
She opened her red lips slightly and said slowly, "This emperor already has a husband. I'm afraid the young palace master will be disappointed this time."
When the young palace master heard this, his face instantly turned gloomy, like a dark cloud.
"I wonder who the Empress's husband is?"
Yan An's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously stole a glance in the direction of Lu Jingzhi, then quickly retracted his gaze, raised his chin and spoke.
"Who this emperor's husband is has nothing to do with you?"
The Young Palace Master sneered and pressed on: "If that's the case, why doesn't the Empress let him come out and meet us all?"
"It will also allow us to broaden our horizons and see what kind of person can catch the eye of the Empress."
After a moment of contemplation, Yan An calmly replied, "My husband has been busy all day rebuilding the demon tribe, and he is exhausted both physically and mentally."
"He is currently resting and recuperating in the palace."
"It is really inconvenient for me to come and meet you. Please forgive me, Young Palace Master."
Hearing this, the young palace master's expression became even uglier.
He snorted heavily, "Empress, don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit!"
"I, the outer palace, have come here with all sincerity to ask for your hand in marriage. If the Empress insists on not agreeing, I'm afraid your demon race's future will be difficult."
Yan An's beautiful eyes widened when she heard this.
She glared at the Young Palace Master and shouted, "You are clearly threatening this emperor!"
"My demon clan has never been one to be bullied, so how could we be afraid of a mere outer palace like you!"
The Young Palace Master didn't flinch and continued to sneer, "Oh? Really?"
"Since you demons are not afraid of my Outer Palace, what about the Heavenly Palace?"
"The power of the Heavenly Palace is not something you can contend with."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked.
No one expected that the Young Palace Master would actually move out of the Heavenly Palace to suppress Yan An and the entire demon clan.
This was undoubtedly a heavy hammer that hit the hearts of every member of the demon clan hard.
Xiao Su glanced at everyone calmly.
[Lu Jingzhi, your woman is being threatened. You should take action.]
【Come out quickly and protect your woman! 】
