#256 - Chapter 256: One thing on the surface, another behind the scenes

Star River Sect.

Everyone, from top to bottom, was busy preparing for the banquet three days later.

This was the Star River Sect's Revered One banquet, very important, and there couldn't be the slightest oversight.

The main venue for the Revered One banquet was set in the Star River Hall, used to entertain the various Sect Leaders.

As for the banquets to entertain disciples and others, they were set up in the Star River Square.

The Star River Sect, from top to bottom, was filled with joy; they didn't know how many years it had been since they had held a Revered One banquet.

……

Free and Unfettered Peak.

Compared to the activity of the various mountain peaks, the Free and Unfettered Peak seemed much quieter.

While other peaks were bustling with preparations for the Revered One banquet, the Free and Unfettered Peak was as calm as water.

It wasn't that the Free and Unfettered Peak wasn't proactive, but rather that the Free and Unfettered Peak was indeed not proactive.

The Revered One banquet was, to them, just child's play.

For Lin Yaoyao and the others, even Revered Ones weren't qualified to host a banquet; only Emperors or Emperor Realm experts were qualified.

Luo Yangtian's Revered One banquet really didn't concern them much.

Of course, mainly because Luo Yangtian hadn't asked the Free and Unfettered Peak to prepare anything.

How many people were there on the Free and Unfettered Peak? If they were asked to prepare the Revered One banquet, Luo Yangtian probably wouldn't be able to get through it.

Sea of Bitterness.

Ye Kong held a fishing rod and fished, while Earth Mother lazily lay under the willow tree.

She was now entangled with the Jade Pure Willow Branch; as long as Ye Kong agreed to give her the Jade Pure Willow Branch, she could refine it at any time.

"When are you going to the Saha Pure Land?" Earth Mother opened her eyes and suddenly asked.

Ye Kong heard this and took a deep look at Earth Mother, saying unhappily, "If there's delicious food, why don't you go?"

Am I, Ye Kong, someone who runs around everywhere for food?

Do you think I'm a glutton like you!

Saha Pure Land, Ye Kong had also thought about taking a stroll around it someday when he was free to see the environment inside.

"I can't get in," Earth Mother pouted.

If she could get in, she would have already gone in.

The Saha Pure Land was different from other forbidden areas; the Saha Pure Land was relatively safe and wouldn't have any danger, it was bound to be clean and safe.

As for other forbidden areas, entering them meant death; those who could come out were lucky.

"Let's talk about it when I have time someday," Ye Kong waved his hand.

"Remember to take me with you; I'm especially familiar with the Saha Pure Land!" Earth Mother said to Ye Kong.

Ye Kong glanced at Earth Mother; Earth Mother lowered her head and drew circles on the ground.

"We'll see," Ye Kong continued to fish.

Even if he were to go, he would have to wait until the Sect Leader's Revered One banquet was over before going.

In a flash, three days passed.

The Star River Sect was decorated with lanterns and colors, filled with continuous joy.

The gates of the Star River Sect were wide open, welcoming guests from all directions.

Luo Yangtian stood above the Star River, radiating the majesty of a Revered One.

The First Elder arranged everything in the Star River Hall, the Second Elder prepared in the Star River Square, and the Third Elder greeted guests outside.

Everything was very solemn and dignified!

Not long after, the Third Elder's voice came from outside the Star River Sect.

"The Jade Fragrance Sect Leader has arrived to offer congratulations; please take a seat!"

Having said that, the Star River Sect's disciples went out to greet him, bringing the Jade Fragrance Sect Leader to the Star River Hall.

With the arrival of the Jade Fragrance Sect, more and more Sect Leaders brought their disciples and followers to offer congratulations.

"The Myriad Blossom Sect Leader has arrived to offer congratulations; please take a seat!"

"The Withered Wood Sect Leader has arrived to offer congratulations; please take a seat!"

……

The various Sect Leaders arrived one after another, and under the guidance of the disciples, they entered the Star River Hall to take their seats.

Half an hour later,

Luo Yangtian saw that almost everyone had arrived and prepared to descend from the sky.

But at this moment, the Third Elder's voice came again.

"The Demonic Skull Sect's Branch Sect Leader has come to cause trouble; prepare to meet the enemy!"

Luo Yangtian heard this, stepped on the Star River, walked out of the Sect, turned his back to the Demonic Skull Sect's Branch Sect Leader, and said coldly:

"I'm sorry, my Star River Sect does not welcome demonic sects!"

The Demonic Skull Sect's Branch Sect Leader heard this and couldn't help but smile, saying:

"It's giving you face that I, the Demonic Skull Sect's Branch Sect Leader, have come all the way to celebrate for you; don't be ungrateful."

"Although you are a Revered One, do you dare to contend with the demonic sect?"

"All the righteous sect leaders have come to celebrate for you, but when your Star River Sect encounters danger, has anyone come to save you?"

The Demonic Skull Sect's Branch Sect Leader was an old ancestor who survived from the Demonic Sect of the Continuous Cloud Continent, with the same realm as Luo Yangtian.

Luo Yangtian listened to his words and still said coldly, "Even so, I will never let your demonic sect enter!"

"If you want to start a war, then come; my Star River Sect will accept it!"

Luo Yangtian's attitude was firm, and he would not let the demonic sect step into the Sect even half a step.

"Good, you said it!"

"One day, when my demonic sect breaks through the Star River Sect, I will definitely make you regret it!" After the Demonic Skull Sect's Branch Sect Leader finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Only then did Luo Yangtian turn back.

"The Pavilion Master of the Star Observation Pavilion has arrived to offer congratulations!" At this moment, Mu Qianyuan arrived.

Luo Yangtian's footsteps paused, and a Star River spread to Mu Qianyuan's feet.

"Please take a seat!" Luo Yangtian shouted, bringing Mu Qianyuan inside.

Inside the Star River Hall.

Luo Yangtian stood above the Star River, still with his back to the crowd.

Sitting on both sides slightly below him were Mu Qianyuan and the Jade Fragrance Sect Leader.

Sitting on both sides below were the Nine Peak Masters and the Sect Leaders of the various righteous sects.

The atmosphere of this Revered One banquet was relatively lively, and the various Sect Leaders raised their glasses to toast one after another, what a hypocritical scene.

If it weren't for what happened before, then the various righteous sects could still be friends.

With what happened last time, Luo Yangtian understood that these people in front of him would run away when they encountered danger and come to snatch when there were benefits.

The current celebration was only because he had broken through to become a Revered One.

When his Star River Sect encountered danger, most of these Sect Leaders would pretend to be dead.

Smiling now, who knows if they are scolding him behind their backs.

Ye Kong sat below, quietly drinking his wine, watching the performance of the various Sect Leaders.

Each one of them was eloquent, but when they encountered danger, they all became mute.

It was a pity that the Sky Dragon Sect Leader didn't come, otherwise it would have been even more interesting.

Ye Kong shook his head and smiled, raising his glass and taking a light sip.

In the Star River Square.

Lin Yaoyao brought Little White and the others to sit in the Free and Unfettered Peak's designated area and eat.

They came to attend the banquet.

The disciples of the various sects, seeing that Lin Yaoyao, Little White, and Mu Qianqian were good-looking, couldn't help but want to get close to them.

But before they could step forward, they suddenly fell, prostrating themselves on the ground, spilling wine all over the place.

All the disciples who wanted to offer a toast retreated in embarrassment, looking around.

They were tripped by Little Blue when they went to offer a toast; Little Blue was invisible, and they couldn't see her at all.

Originally, Little Blue's strength would only make her invisible at night, but after using the White Tiger's bloodline, she could become invisible at any time even during the day.

Apart from Lin Yaoyao, no one could see her.

After Little White and the others ate a little, they couldn't eat anymore.

Although these foods could be called delicacies, after Little White and the others ate a little, they felt that they tasted like wax, and the taste was very ordinary.

They left and returned to Peach Mountain after not sitting for long.

And Ye Kong was about the same.

After drinking a little wine in the Star River Hall, he found an excuse to leave.

Now that Luo Yangtian's Revered One banquet was over, he could safely go to the Saha Pure Land to take a stroll.
