C29 – Celebration Banquet
In the blink of an eye, it was already the day of the Sheng family’s celebration banquet. The entire street was filled with banquets. Anyone could co and eat. Of course, beggars were not allowed.
The banquets on the street were quite sumptuous. There was plenty of at and wine. For the commoners who lived in the lower levels, it was a good ti to fill their stomachs. Dozens of chefs were cooking nonstop.
And the truly important people were all attending the banquet in the Sheng family’s main hall. For so of the small families in power, it was already an extrely great honor to find a seat in the courtyard.
In the main hall of the Sheng family, there were nine tables of banquets. Those who could sit here were all the big shots of Rosewall.
Originally, Sheng Yuduo did not want to participate in the celebration banquet. He did not have much of a sense of belonging to this family. However, Yao Mingyan and Yao Shiyun kept persuading him, so he had no choice but to co.
Sheng Hao’s face was filled with happiness. Although Sheng Xinyu’s death was heartbreaking for him, his other two sons were so promising and made him very happy.
ng Keke sat beside Sheng Hao with a gloomy face. Sheng Hao whispered to her, “Today is our Sheng family’s celebration day. You better be happy. If you make unhappy, I’ll make you unhappy for the rest of your life!”
ng Keke’s heart skipped a beat, and she forced a smile on her face. She kept greeting the ladies. Sheng Yuduo was dressed casually and sat quietly at the side.
Sheng Yuduo was now the center of attention of this banquet. All the young ladies had given up on their reserved attitudes and were desperately standing beside him.
Sheng Hao looked at the ti and found it was almost ti. He raised the wine cup in his hand and said in a clear voice, “Thank you all for attending our Sheng family’s celebration banquet today. I will drink a cup of wine to show my respect!”
ng Huoyang laughed at the side, “This is to celebrate my nephew Sheng Yuduo’s victory in the Hunting Festival! Furthermore, his results are unprecedented. This is truly the honor of our Rosewall. I will represent the people of Rosewall to toast my nephew.”
Sheng Yuduo now had martial arts, so he was no longer as low-profile as before. He raised his wine cup and laughed, “Uncle Zhang, you’re too polite. I’m just a piece of trash!”
“If I hadn’t t my master, I am afraid that you wouldn’t even look at when you see on the street!”
ng Huoyang’s expression changed, but he imdiately smiled and said, “What you said is wrong. In the Divine Martial Continent, the strong are respected!
“If there was anything wrong with in the past, I hope you don’t mind! How about this cup of wine as an apology to you?” He finished and drank it all in one gulp.
Sheng Yuduo frowned and secretly muttered in his heart. In his previous impression, ng Huoyang was an arrogant and despotic person. But today, he was so patient, as if he was different from the norm!
Sheng Yuduo imdiately smiled and said, “Uncle Zhang, what you said makes sense. A strong person should always be respected no matter what! You don’t have to apologize. As long as you promise not to do it again in the future, it will be fine.”
Seeing ng Huoyang being humiliated, Sheng Hao was overjoyed! ng Huoyang said coldly, “Although you are a genius now, there have been too many geniuses who have fallen before they could rise up! You should be careful!”
Sheng Yuduo said with a high-spirited expression, “Only those who can die are not called geniuses. Only those who can walk all the way to the end are geniuses! I will definitely overco all obstacles. Uncle Zhang, you are old, you should be careful!”
The atmosphere between the two of them was filled with tension. Sheng Hao laughed and said, “Yuduo, how can you speak to your uncle like this? After all, he is the lord of a city. If anything happens to him, our Sheng family will not be able to bear the consequences!”
Soone shouted, “The ng family has been the City Lord for so many years, it’s ti to change. I think Master Hao is the best candidate for the City Lord. Don’t you think so?”
ng Huoyang’s face turned purple, but he endured it. He laughed and said, “Brother Zhao, it seems that you have the people’s support! How about I give you the position of City Lord?”
Sheng Hao said proudly, “Mr. ng, this is just a re City Lord position! You can keep this position for yourself. When my second son cos back from the Xuan Tian Sword Sect, this place might beco our Sheng family’s fief!”
This ti, other than ng Huoyang, Soong Mingjun and Hee Weijian’s faces also changed. They did not expect Sheng Hao to be so ambitious that he actually wanted to turn Rosewall into his private property.
ng Huoyang’s eyes were filled with a fierce light as he sneered and said, “Patriarch Sheng, then I will congratulate you in advance for your dreams to co true. I still have sothing to do, so I’ll take my leave first!”
Sheng Zifu quickly said from the side, “Lord Chengzhu, why are you so angry? Our patriarch is just joking. Don’t mind it.”
ng Huoyang ignored Sheng Zifu and suddenly turned around to Sheng Hao and said, “I want to bring my sister back ho for a few days. Patriarch Sheng, is there any problem?”
Sheng Hao did not think too much about it. He smiled and nodded, “When today’s banquet is over, I will send soone to send her over. City Lord, then I won’t send you off.”
Sheng Yuduo felt that things were not that simple! However, after weighing the strength of the Sheng family, he felt that nothing could happen!
After ng Huoyang left, the entire banquet went on happily. All kinds of praises rose and fell!
Right now, those people from the Elder Team were all hiding, especially the Sixth Elder! He had been on tenterhooks these few days, afraid that Sheng Yuduo would find trouble with him.
Sheng Renshan held his wine glass and said to Sheng Yuduo in a low voice, “It was my fault in the past. Young Master, I hope you don’t mind! I have already prepared so Spirit Crystals and have sent them to your room!”
Sheng Yuduo’s horizons were now much higher. His abilities were already above Zhao Rongshan’s. He snorted coldly and said, “I will let you go this ti. You better think carefully before you do anything in the future.”
Sheng Renshan quickly nodded and bowed, “Young Master, thank you for your generosity. I will definitely be a good person and follow you in the future.”
Sheng Yuduo nodded slightly and waved his hand to let him leave. Sheng Renshan lowered his head and retreated to the side. His eyes were filled with hatred. He regretted not being able to kill Sheng Yiming in the school field!
The celebration banquet lasted until late at night. ng Keke found an excuse and returned to the ng family in a carriage. Sheng Hao did not care about this matter.
