Chapter 197 Getting Ready
After Cang Yanhai took his seat, the people from Tianyu Palace finally arrived.
The Third Elder had a gentle and kind smile on his face, "Your Majesty, we are not late."
Mo Di naturally wouldn't give them face. He curled his lips and said lightly, "The timing is just right."
"That's good." The Third Elder waved his hand, and the Tianyu Palace Elder behind him walked over with a box. "It's just a small gift, not a token of respect."
Inside the box is a divine spiritual plant.
In fact, it is also a very precious treasure, second only to the Cangyan Sea and the Ancient Temple.
But after seeing Cang Yanhai's gifts, they felt that the things from Tianyu Palace were mediocre.
Feeling that there was no emotional fluctuation among the crowd, the Third Elder's face was a little distorted. He looked at the ordinary young man calmly.
The ordinary young man took a sip of tea and shrugged his shoulders. There was nothing he could do. He really couldn't compete.
Emperor Mo had the things taken away and said to the people from Tianyu Palace, "Holy Son, Third Elder, please take a seat."
Ji Wuming turned around and sat in the empty seat opposite the Luo family.
Luo Li met his expressionless eyes and raised her eyebrows imperceptibly.
A dark glint flashed across the third elder's eyes, but a smile as warm as spring breeze still hung on his face. He turned around and sat down next to Ji Wuming.
Next is the time for the major forces in the imperial capital to present their gifts.
Their gifts were far inferior to those from Cang Yanhai, but they were all thoughtful gestures, and they didn't even think of competing with Cang Yanhai.
Emperor Mo was also very happy. After all, except for the Nangong family, everyone else had put their heart into it.
Soon, it was time to present gifts to the Luo family. Because Luo Li had told Luo Xiong and the others in advance that she had prepared gifts for Mo Di, it was Luo Li who presented the gifts on behalf of the Luo family.
Luo Li stood up, holding a wooden box in both hands, and walked to the center of the hall, "Your Majesty the Emperor Mo."
Mo Di had a gentle smile on his face, "No need to be so polite, Xiao Li."
Luo Li curled her lips, looked at Mo Di with bright eyes, and opened the box in her hand, "A bottle of elixir, I hope Mo Di likes it."
As soon as the words were spoken, the hall fell silent.
What kind of elixir could a god-level alchemist send out?
Of course it’s a god-level elixir!
Luo Li took out the jade bottle and poured out a pill into her hand. It had ten levels of pill dizziness, shocking everyone in the hall. Their breathing gradually became heavier.
It also made An Youdao's eyes darken.
Unexpectedly, this Luo Li is even more evil than the rumors say, and can actually refine a god-level elixir with ten layers of elixir halo.
An Youdao gritted his teeth. You know, that old man has only refined a tenth-level divine elixir once or twice so far. How old is this little girl?!
It's okay that the old man is better than him, but he is suppressed by this stinky girl.
Luo Li curled her lips and smiled, "Thousand Life Pill, as the name suggests, taking one pill can increase your lifespan by a thousand years."
Mo Di's eyes lit up. This was a great thing for him. It had no side effects, and one pill could extend his lifespan by a thousand years.
Although the elixir that Luo Li took out was incredible, it was not too eye-catching. After all, the owner of Jingxin Island had put the Thousand Longevity Pill up for auction many times at Fengyun Auction House.
However, the Thousand Longevity Pill can also be ranked among the top five gifts today.
Mo Di's eyes curved with a smile, and he chuckled, "Xiao Li is thoughtful. I like it very much."
Luo Li smiled faintly, "As long as Uncle Mo likes it."
All the forces had arrived. Emperor Mo clapped his hands, and the maids who had been prepared long ago immediately came in and served fine wine and delicious food.
Emperor Mo raised his hand lightly, "Everyone, please don't be restrained. Today is Longyue's five-year grand event. Enjoy the wine and food!"
The people below bowed to Mo Di and said, "Thank you, Mo Di."
There was singing and dancing, and most of the people who were unaware of the situation had smiles on their faces, clinking glasses and making the place very lively.
Although those who knew the inside story had smiles on their faces, the atmosphere was somewhat tense and strange.
Mo Di sat on the throne above, raising his glass to the audience from time to time.
Luo Li picked up the teacup, narrowed her eyes, and met the eyes of the elder from Tianyu Palace whose face had changed.
Their eyes met, Luo Li curled her lips slightly and raised her glass towards him.
The young man frowned slightly. This Luo Li is not done yet, right?
He glanced calmly in the direction of the underground palace. It seemed that he had to act quickly. He couldn't stay in the imperial capital!
He turned his head suddenly and met Bai Sheng's golden eyes in front of him.
There was a glint in Bai Sheng's golden eyes, and he looked at him with a hint of intrigue, raising his glass towards him.
The young man was shocked and felt a chill in his heart. It was so strange that he felt that Bai Sheng could see through his heart without any obstruction.
This feeling is really bad.
He immediately turned his head and met the deep black eyes of the high priest of the ancient temple again.
Di Xuanming narrowed his dark eyes. This was the elder who served as the worshiper. Xue Yan's message said that they seemed to be trying to seize Long Yue's treasure today. Should he just take the initiative and kill him on behalf of A Li and the others?
The young man saw a hint of murderous intent in those eyes.
He was about to collapse. How had he offended this person? Could it be that he knew their plan?
With his eyes narrowed slightly, the young man rejected this idea. No, whether there was any friction between the Taikoo Temple and the Tianyu Palace, they were allies decades ago. There was no way they would suddenly change their attitude towards the Tianyu Palace.
This imperial capital is truly unbearable! The people here are too weird! He wants the Mirror of Invisibility back!
If Luo Li knew what he was thinking, she would probably burst into laughter. The Palace Master of the Ancient Temple would not attack the Tianyu Palace, but the Palace Master who had been on good terms with the Tianyu Palace before had been killed by Di Xuanming!
Time passed minute by minute, and it was already late at night. The two sides exchanged glances with each other calmly, and the time was almost up.
The young man narrowed his eyes. He was really fed up with the noisy and hypocritical appearance of these people. The important thing was to complete the Palace Master's task as soon as possible and return to the Mirror of Invisibility.
Luo Li took in all their self-proclaimed low-key actions, shook the cup in her hand, and raised it to Luo Xiong and Mo Di.
Indeed, if Luo Li hadn't found them, such actions in the hall would have been very cautious, but Luo Li's attention was always on them, so their actions were too conspicuous.
Mo Di and Luo Xiong exchanged a glance. Luo Xiong suddenly stood up, looking drunk. "Your Majesty, it's getting late. I think I'll have to take my leave."
The others also felt a little tired, so they stood up and left.
Emperor Mo chuckled, "The Dragon Phoenix Palace took a long time to prepare today. Let's move the next state banquet to the afternoon."
Everyone's eyes lit up. This was a good idea, so they all laughed and said, "Emperor Mo is wise."
Mo Di stood up, his robe falling to the ground. "In the next three days, there will be small competitions held outside the Dragon Phoenix Palace. I have prepared some gifts for the champions of each competition. If you are interested, don't forget to participate."
