Chapter 2237 of the main text

I instructed Guan Zejin Caijielian to inform the six distinguished guests participating in the New Year's Eve banquet boat activity to continue waiting in their respective boats. They will arrive at the main banquet in the order of their ranking in the New Year's Eve buffet competition; they will not arrive together, but will be received and invited to the banquet according to their assigned order. The hundreds of participants from each team should remain in their respective boats. The banquet restaurant and lantern amusement area will remain open and available for their use; they can simply wait. Further arrangements will be made later.

The golden lotus in the gate will convey the decree, and there will be a corresponding sequence of progress, which will proceed steadily.

All six New Year's Eve flower boats have arrived at a pier in Gem Mountain and Sea, where they are safely docked. That area is the finish line for the New Year's Eve flower boat races, marking the end of the races. However, the New Year celebrations at the Holy Return Temple are still in full swing.

There are joint celebrations and performances in all areas of the Creator Palace, and preparations are very thorough.

By participating in the virtual lantern gifting event, the corresponding rewards will be automatically distributed to the Golden Lotus Shadow Lotus's divine power system. These rewards can be used to increase divine lifespan and divine power.

The six distinguished guests did not disembark, contrary to the original plan to tour the festively decorated areas by car after disembarking, which would take some time before reaching the Zunyan Longdian area. Instead, they opted to take the Year of the Dragon Flying Boat, which would take them directly to the garden area of ​​the Zunyan Longdian before proceeding to the main hall for their audience. This was an adjustment; with special permission, the Year of the Dragon Flying Boat would reach the outer area of ​​the Zunyan Longdian at a faster speed.

If we consider the timeline of the mortal world, the Dragon Year banquet has already been delayed for over a year. This repeated postponement seems quite excessive. The events that should have happened last year haven't even taken place yet, and the events that should happen this year will be delayed even further. Finally, the relevant events are about to begin.

Each Year of the Dragon flying boat is a design previously chosen by our distinguished guests. Last year, neither Jin Hu Yue nor Qi Cai Xing Lian attended the banquet at the Dragon Palace, but they still selected their own Year of the Dragon flying boat designs, which will be used this time. All the Year of the Dragon flying boats have undergone some adjustments and updated decorations, but the basic design remains the same.

The six dragon-themed flying boats will travel to the helipad that each of the banquet boats has, and at the designated time, they can proceed to the banquet venue.

Once the distinguished guests are seated on the Dragon Year Flying Boat, they will proceed to the outer perimeter of the Dragon Banquet Hall. The flight time on the Dragon Year Flying Boat is short, allowing guests to enjoy the festive scenery and sacred views along the way. This arrangement is quite pleasant.

Hua Zhu, as the champion of the New Year's Eve dinner buffet event, led her team of hundreds of Ying Lian participants to participate in the event in the New Year's Eve banquet restaurant in excellent condition and achieved the best results. The Ying Lian members of her team were very happy about this. Although the team lost in the lantern amusement boat competition, they won the crown in the New Year's Eve dinner buffet event, which was the best result in the competition and made them the number one team in the event.

At the New Year's banquet restaurant on the flower boat, Hua Zhu provided guidance and supervision. She knew that Ying Lian, a participant from her team, had focused too much on the lantern riddle activity, expending considerable time and energy on difficult riddles, which weakened her rowing performance. As a result, she ranked low in the lantern boat race. Seeing the situation was unfavorable, following Hua Zhu's guidance, the team shifted their focus to the New Year's Eve buffet. They took this activity very seriously, participating fully and ultimately winning first place, earning honor and glory. The dragon-themed flying boat used by this VIP was already parked on the helipad of the New Year's banquet flower boat, surrounded by countless illusory flower petals, awaiting and welcoming the VIP's arrival for the main banquet.

Hua Zhu bid farewell to the participants of her Shadow Lotus team, thanking all team members for their hard work. Everyone was obedient and tried their best. They used many of the dishes from the New Year's banquet restaurant. Because of their good fortune, they not only consistently scored extra points randomly, but also correctly guessed most of the specific dishes, winning the competition. She was truly happy and delighted. She hopes these Shadow Lotus participants will perform well in the future, perhaps even becoming high-ranking Shadow Lotus supervisors or deputy supervisors within the Holy Reunion Temple. Have dreams, and you will achieve them.

She passed through the flower boat passageway directly to the departure area, where she was to board the Year of the Dragon flying boat to participate in the main banquet activities.

After bidding farewell to the Shadow Lotus members of her team and receiving many blessings, Hua Zhu boarded the Dragon Year flying boat to the Flower Palace area of ​​the Dragon Palace for a banquet.

Inside the magnificent flying boat, accompanied by several shadow lotuses responsible for the operation of the Dragon Year flying boat, upon arriving at the garden area of ​​the Dragon Banquet Palace, golden lotuses were responsible for guiding and accompanying the journey.

Being the first guest here as a distinguished guest is a great honor, and Huazhu was overjoyed to be there to pay her respects to the host.

Upon arriving at the garden area of ​​the Zunyan Dragon Palace, Huazhu praised the festive decorations and magnificent changes in this area, saying that it was even more noble, luxurious, and beautiful than when she first came here.

The Golden Lotus attendants accompanying the guest thanked the distinguished guest, Huazhu, for her praise. They heard that the guest had offered some valuable suggestions, some of which were excellent, regarding the area of ​​the Guest Hall. They hoped that the guest could observe this area more closely when she had time and provide feedback so they could further improve it. The Dragon Banquet Hall is the core area for the Emperor's exclusive enjoyment and an ideal venue for holding annual banquets. Using it as the venue for the annual banquet would be of paramount importance and would be extremely honorable and beneficial.

Hua Zhu readily agreed, saying she would take a closer look at the decorations and furnishings, offering her opinions and suggestions based on her eye for aesthetics. She would then input these into the intelligent system and send them to the Golden Lotus Manager. She was confident that the banquet experience would be exceptionally good, and she had high hopes for it. She also hoped to achieve a good ranking in the Dragon Year competition at the Holy Return Temple, winning honors and awards once again. It was said that the Dragon Year competition offered incredibly luxurious prizes, and all the participating guests aspired to receive rewards and honors.

After a while, VIP Huazhu arrived at the outer hall area of ​​the Dragon Banquet Hall. Several Golden Lotus attendants accompanied her, using the power of the Lotus to help her arrive quickly and reduce the time spent. The same arrangement would be used when other VIPs arrived. Without the assistance of the Lotus's power, given the vast area of ​​this temple garden, it would normally take a long time to walk or use the moving walkways.

The storyline of the Dragon Year Grand Banquet at the Dragon Palace is about to begin, and it will proceed step by step. Some of the storylines should be quite interesting.
