Chapter 647 The Ghost Lord Arrives
The celebration ceremony for the Ghost King of the Qiubude Domain was unprecedentedly lively.
All the important figures in the ghost realm were present.
Except for Dou Xian, the ghost king of Laoshuai, the other seven ghost kings came to the scene to congratulate and presented gifts, which was interpreted by the outside world as a recognition of Ye Xiaoman's legitimate ruling status.
Even though there were many stars at the scene, the appearance of the Ji royal family still pushed the atmosphere to its climax.
Not to mention the extravagant pomp and lavishness of the royal family and the magnificence of the palace ceremonial guards, it demonstrated the elegance of the gods and left a shocking impression on the ghost country bumpkins.
Ji Wenyi's personal appearance also showed that Ye Xiaoman had the support of the Divine Realm behind her, causing those forces that were ready to take action against the new Ghost King to restrain themselves.
Xiao Chujing and his fellow disciples of Qingzhengzong were busy running around. Ji Wenyi arrived and, as the host, he stepped forward to greet them.
Xiao Chujing met Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming, and they were all surprised.
From Xiao Chujing's perspective, he didn't expect Ji Wenyi to come. The position of Ghost King was taken away by his junior sister. Given Ji Wenyi's arrogance of having everything go according to his wishes, he should have just not made trouble and taken back the fruits of victory. Why was he willing to come and congratulate with such a friendly face?
But Xiao Chujing was the best at reasoning. Considering Ji Wenyi's earlier actions of trying to win him and his junior sister over, he interpreted Ji Wenyi's move as a way for the Divine Realm to win him over.
When Ji Wenyi saw Xiao Chujing acting like the master, he also felt something was wrong.
As far as A Bao knew, Xiao Chujing was a stranger to him. A Bao was living a good life, and with so many capable people in the Ji family, it was not Xiao Chujing's turn to ask for help.
The position of Ghost King was taken by A Bao, and he did not consider Xiao Chujing's feelings. With Xiao Chujing's status, he never had the right to compete with him for anything.
He thought Xiao Chujing would be disappointed, but unexpectedly Xiao Chujing looked quite happy.
Could it be that Xiao Chujing is very cunning and wants to please him by trying to please Abao?
Ji Weiming has his own opinion on this. He knows that Ye Xiaoman from Qingzheng Sect is a disciple accepted by Zhishui from outside. Zhishui has a good relationship with Qingzheng Sect. Xiao Chujing is also a member of Qingzheng Sect, so it is normal for him to come and help.
Xiao Chujing bowed to the Ji brothers without saying a word.
The eldest brother on the side curled his lips and answered for him: "A seat has been arranged for you, please follow me."
Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming also remained silent and looked at Xiao Chujing who was acting like a mute.
Xiao Chujing pointed to his neck.
The eldest brother controlled his temper and continued to act as Xiao Chujing's spokesperson: "Junior brother Xiao has a sore throat and lost his voice this morning. Please forgive me."
The Ji clan's secret guard replied, "What a coincidence! Our Majesty and His Royal Highness Prince Rui are also like this."
While the three men were greeting each other with silent smiles, Sikong Qing walked into the venue in a hurry.
He looked down at the three of them. Usually, he would make some sarcastic remarks when he saw Xiao Chujing, but today he just looked at them without saying anything. He held his head high and walked up to the eldest sister, making a few gestures.
The eldest sister was already busy like a top: "Ah Qing, your voice is broken too?"
Was there some kind of sudden viral outbreak in the ghost realm that even the monks couldn't handle? How come she didn't know about it?
The demon subordinate who came with Sikong Qing said in a loud and anxious voice:
"It's okay. Our... Immortal Sikong's voice will be fine after a day of rest."
"Is everyone here? Are the dishes served? The flying magic weapons outside are blocking the road, quickly send someone to clear them out! Do you have enough manpower? If not, we'll send more!"
Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming found it strange that Sikong Qing was quite enthusiastic.
Ji Wenyi had originally prepared himself for Sikong Qing to get mad at him because he was dissatisfied with the selection of Ghost King, but in the end nothing happened.
Xiao Chujing smiled and gestured goodbye to Ji Wenyi. Although he was disabled, he was determined and was busy entertaining the next group of distinguished guests.
Ji Weiming and Ji Wenyi sat down with a strong sense of weirdness.
Unfortunately, today I promised Ye Xiaoman to practice silent meditation. There are some things that are wrong that I can’t explain, and the two brothers cannot exchange opinions.
As they sat down, they glanced at each other unhappily.
Ji Wenyi: It's rare that Abao shows his possessiveness towards me, how dare Ji Weiming imitate me?
Ji Weiming: Someone close to me must have leaked the news. How ridiculous, my royal brother! Do you think that by annoying me you can earn Shishui's love?
The servants at the venue brought food to entertain the guests.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, Prince Rui, if any of the food is not to your liking, please notify us immediately and replace it."
A young boy's tender white hand appeared in Ji Wenyi's sight. He raised his eyes and saw a cat demon boy standing next to the ghost who looked like a butler.
In such an occasion, given his status, Ye Xiaoman should come personally to deliver the wine.
The cat demon, like its master, did the job himself.
What qualifications does he have?
Ji Weiming beside him frowned. Ji Wenyi looked at the cat demon for a few times. Judging from his clothes and behavior, the cat demon looked a bit like Yue Mushan?
Why is Yue Mushan joining in the fun?
The secret guard observed his expression and scolded him, "How dare you not show respect to our Majesty?"
The butler quickly apologized: "Please forgive me, my lord. Butler Mu suddenly had a high fever last night and his throat was burned."
Ji Wenyi felt that there seemed to be too many men with throat problems today. He had no intention of ruining A Bao's place, so he made a silent gesture to let the matter go.
As the light dimmed, Jiaying entered the venue accompanied by two monks, and the bustling crowd automatically made way for the Holy Son.
Jiaying was led by Xiao Chujing to the table of VIPs from the Divine Realm silently and sat down.
Yue Mushan glanced at Xiao Chujing thoughtfully, then took the tray and went to the next table to toast.
Xiao Chujing looked at Yue Mushan's back with a puzzled look.
Where did this cat demon come from, pretending to be the master?
Some people, when they go to the host's house for a meal, will suddenly become enthusiastic about helping to maintain order. Perhaps cat demons have the same habit?
Xiao Chujing left, and Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming's burning gazes fell on Jiaying.
Jiaying took his seat without saying a word.
Could it be that Jiaying’s throat is also damaged?
But Jiaying has always been taciturn and unable to judge.
Ji Wenyi didn't expect that Jiaying, a man who had come from a different world and avoided all kinds of celebrations in the Divine Realm, would actually come.
Ji Wenyi could still consider Xiao Chujing and Sikong Qing as wanting to please him, but for Jiaying, Ji Wenyi really couldn't think of a reason.
Amidst the undercurrent, the venue suddenly became noisy.
Ji Wenyi was immersed in a strange mystery when the secret guard beside him suddenly reported in a trembling voice.
"Your Majesty, the Ghost Lord is here."
Zhu Chuideng is here.
The vessel at hand suddenly shook violently, and the wine in the cup rippled violently, like some kind of ominous omen.
Ji Wenyi suddenly came back to his senses.
He quickly returned to the state of the Lord of the Divine Realm and opened his eyelids. The view from his position was excellent. He saw a tall and burly man walking steadily into the venue in the bright sunlight, followed by a ghost king.
