Chapter 61: The First Appearance of the Palace Banquet
Inside the magnificent palace walls, the lights were bright, and beautifully dressed insect servants were walking back and forth, making it extremely lively.
The guests who came also knew where this was and what kind of banquet they were about to attend, so they all restrained their arrogance and domineering behavior outside and became gentle and polite.
Bai parked the aircraft at the gate of the palace. As soon as he got off the aircraft, he saw Mellon, Peggy and others walking towards him.
Except for Pu Bo, the five female insects were all wearing neat military uniforms and looked very imposing. The insects passing by them all retreated away for fear of being struck by the evil spirits of these female soldiers.
When he discovered that Bai Qi had abandoned them and Nan Qi in matching outfits, Mellon gave a look that said, "You really value women over friendship," and he tutted his tongue twice.
"This is the first time I see you dressed so flamboyantly. Have you changed your personality? Honestly, you look really good. Where's Nan Qi? Is he still hiding?"
Without even glancing at Mellon, Bai turned to the other side of the aircraft, opened the door, and stretched out his hand towards the door.
Bai's behavior attracted the attention of the guests who had just arrived at the palace gate.
The Imperial God of War has always been the focus of everyone's attention. This palace banquet was also held because of the Imperial God of War. What's more, the Imperial God of War is no longer a bug.
He... has a boyfriend.
The "master" is an SSS-level male insect found by the Empire's God of War from a remote planet. This is the only SSS-level male insect in the empire. Everyone wants to see what the highest-level male insect looks like, whether he can be won over, and whether he can be used by them.
The guests all had different thoughts, some looked towards Bai to hide their feelings, some looked directly at Bai, and some even took two more steps forward, fearing that they would not be able to see clearly what was going to happen next.
Sitting in the aircraft, Nan Qi looked up at Bai, who was already used to being bathed in such unfriendly gazes. A trace of heartache and displeasure flashed in his eyes, but a perfect smile curved his lips.
“It really attracts everyone’s attention.”
Bai was a little surprised. Nan Qi looked like he was wearing a gorgeous mask.
There is no trace of the humble male insect from the small planet accidentally entering the high-end places of the big planet and witnessing the embarrassment of the top leaders.
Some have beautiful, perfect, effortless and impeccable etiquette. Even if it is just a smile, it is better than many noble sons raised in aristocratic families.
Nan Qi like this is very unfamiliar, but it makes Bai even more moved.
This is a different Nan Qi, the powerful Nan Qi from the years when he didn't know Nan Qi.
There was a strange light in Bai's eyes, and he moved his hand forward again: "My master and I are destined to be the center of everyone's attention."
Nan Qi placed his hand on Bai's, blinked his bright eyes, and instantly returned to the familiar look Bai was familiar with: "Then my queen, please protect me well, I am destined to get drunk today."
Nan Qi hinted at something. Bai firmly held Nan Qi's hand and smiled back, "Of course, it's my pleasure."
Then, Bai retreated step by step. As he retreated, Nan Qi in the aircraft walked out of the aircraft step by step, and appeared in the eyes of all kinds for the first time.
He has a superior height, deep facial features, bright big eyes, and long eyelashes like crow feathers. His eyes reveal a graceful and noble temperament.
He was led by Bai like that, his eyes downcast, looking somewhat obedient. As he walked, his clothes fluttered like a fairy, and the butterfly hair ornament in his hair seemed to come alive, its wings fluttering and its tassels swaying. The whole insect was so beautiful that it didn't seem to exist in reality, but rather a noble and beautiful male insect that walked out of a painting.
The guests, with different thoughts, seemed to be shocked by Nan Qi's behavior, and no one came forward to greet him.
It was not until Bai and Nan Qi disappeared into the palace gate that the guests outside the palace came to their senses. Without stopping for a moment, they quickly walked into the palace gate to chase after Nan Qi and Bai.
Mellon folded his arms as he watched the farce, nudging Peggy with his elbow. "How funny! They all want to see Bai make a fool of herself, thinking that even if Bai married an SSS-rank male insect, that male insect would still be a rude and unsightly creature. Bai would definitely be humiliated."
"Who would have thought that Bai was so lucky that the hero he found was not only of high rank and good looks, but also had an extraordinary temperament. More importantly, he looked very well behaved!" Peggy agreed.
"Tsk." Pu Bo touched his chin and joined the group chat. "I hope no bugs will die of anger tonight. I don't want to work overtime."
Lunk and Todd: "..."
My dear ancestors, please be gentle with your words.
As if hearing the thoughts of Lenk and Todd, the three insects finally stopped chirping at the guests and walked towards the palace gate with dignified steps.
Just by looking at their increasingly quick pace, you could tell they were rushing to watch the fun.
The huge banquet hall where the palace banquet was held was indeed bustling.
The central star is still in the middle of summer. Outside the banquet hall is a huge garden where all kinds of precious flowers compete with each other in beauty and emit bursts of fragrance.
Inside the banquet hall, guests were also competing with each other for attention.
The insect society has not yet deviated too far from the nature of animal society, and male insects like to dress themselves up beautifully.
Female insects with male owners will also behave decently in order not to embarrass their male owners. Many of those without male owners come for blind dates. Whether voluntarily or involuntarily, they will dress up beautifully and hope to get engaged before forced matching.
After all, you haven't even seen the kind of partner you're forced to meet, so it's better for you to find the partner yourself.
Therefore, in the entire banquet hall, the military women in elegant clothes, more beautiful than insects and flowers, formed a unique landscape.
In the past, Bai was also on the list, but today, General Bai Smellide, who could be called the perfect spokesperson for the military, was not wearing a military uniform, but a dress with a very design sense.
When they saw the white bugs, their eyes widened. They had never seen such white before.
He took off the coldness of his military uniform, restrained his fierce aura, and his good looks stood out.
The expressionless face on his handsome face stirred an uncontrollable agitation in the heart of the evil-minded insect.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, I would have stuck to it without caring about anything.
Nan Qi followed behind Bai, and the emotions surging in the eyes of the various insects did not escape his eyes.
Especially seeing the lust and possessiveness rolling in the eyes of some insects, Nan Qi's eyes became fierce, and he tightened his grip on Bai's hand, and Bai stumbled and leaned into his arms without any preparation.
"What's wrong?" Bai looked up at him, and the trust he inadvertently revealed made the insects around him frown.
Nan Qi saw this and put his warm hands on Bai's waist to help him up.
"Nothing, I'm just a little hungry. Take me to eat."
Bai Busu had no doubts and led Nan Qi towards the food area.
Nan Qi followed Bai with his eyes downcast and a rather nonchalant look, but his hand on Bai's waist never left. His possessiveness was so strong that the male insects passing by felt uncomfortable. They couldn't help but step away and finally began to face up to this male master that Bai brought back from a remote planet.
After the two insects walked away, the familiar insects gathered together and began to discuss in a low voice.
"Why is it different from the rumors? Isn't it said that he was a piece of trash raised by F-level male insects on a remote planet? It is said that he even went into the mines, but it doesn't look like that." A B-level male insect wondered.
"He's still an SSS-rank male insect after all, so maybe he has some special qualities that make him a better insect than others." The friend of the B-rank male insect smiled and said, "I think he's quite handsome and has a good temperament."
"What a bullshit insect! Even an SSS-rank male insect can be quite crude without a good education and training. Didn't you see Bai Smellied following closely behind? They're probably afraid that he'll show his weakness and lose face." An A-rank male insect sneered.
"Are you saying that Bai Smelled is controlling the male insect named Nanqi Aide? You're overthinking it. Even if he is the Imperial God of War, he has come to the Central Star. How dare he do that? How can the Male Insect Protection Association agree to that? He is an SSS-level male insect." The B-level male insect who spoke first didn't believe it.
The A-level male insect said disdainfully, "He's relying on Nanqi Ed's limited experience. That's nothing. Many military females like to do this. They go to remote planets to find high-level male insects from the poor to be their male masters, and then exploit the male insects to appease their mental energy."
"Where did you hear all this? Don't spread rumors without proof." The B-rank male's friend frowned. "They're defending their country, after all. Don't spread rumors."
"What are you afraid of? I don't believe you haven't heard of this. Sooner or later, I'll find evidence and bring these scum who trampled on male insects to justice. I'll chop off their wings and send them to do hard labor and become my concubines." The A-rank male insect glared at Bai fiercely. "I won't show mercy even to the Imperial God of War."
The B-rank male insect and his friends fell silent when they saw the evil look on his face. They knew that because of General Bai Smellid, the A-rank male insect Tori's younger brother Toth had been exiled to a remote planet.
But this wasn't Admiral Smellid's fault at all. Using such despicable means to force the Imperial God of War to submit, if it succeeded, they wouldn't say anything. But if it didn't work and they caught him, and then they still wanted to make trouble, that would be really unkind.
Besides, it’s just exile, not death, and it’s not like he can’t come back. I don’t know where Tory gets so much hatred from.
They didn't believe that Li hated Admiral Smellide so much because of his useless brother.
Not wanting to say anything to Toledo, who was blinded by anger, the B-level male insect and his friends left Toledo and walked towards Nan Qi and Bai.
They saw the male insect named Nan Qi eating, but his expression didn't look like he was eating something delicious. Sometimes he even looked disgusted, which aroused the interest of the two insects.
It is quite surprising that a male insect who was raised as an F-level male insect and worked as a miner would actually dislike the delicacies at the palace banquet.
As they approached, they heard the male insect say in a coquettish tone: "This food is terrible. I should have eaten it at home before coming here."
Then they saw the war god, known for his coldness, gently pinch the male insect's forearm and said in a gentle voice, "Lily has learned a few dishes. Send it a message later and we'll go back to eat."
"I want to eat wontons."
"Okay, let Lily pack it."
"I also want to eat fried tofu."
"Well, let Lily fry it."
"I want more—"
"Uh, sorry to interrupt." The B-level male insect felt a little hungry after being told this.
Although he didn't know what it was, it sounded good.
But before he could utter the next sentence, a group of insect shadows walked into the banquet hall door like stars surrounding the moon.
The leading insect was none other than the Emperor of the Empire, Hoover Walker, and behind him was Prince Keppel Walker and Prince Keppel's consort, Imperial Marshal Ayou Percy.
In addition, the eldest prince Hubble Walker, the second prince Goss Walker and the third prince Will Walker were all present, which shows how much importance the Insect King attached to this banquet.
The originally relaxed atmosphere in the banquet hall became turbulent after the arrival of the Insect King.
