Chapter 933, Banquet

"Okay, I'll notify them immediately." The Fifth Princess said directly.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and continued, "Anyway, we're going to have a banquet, so you can invite people who can help you to attend. It's up to you."

From the other side came the Fifth Princess's grateful voice, "Thank you, my Lord."

"Go and get ready!" He hung up the call and put the phone away.

Shannella took his hand again and said, "Are you really going to support the fifth princess?"

"Didn't you say that she is more reliable than the second prince?" Wu Heng said.

"I have never seen the second prince. I only heard some rumors. Besides, Brittany was right beside him at the time. How could I say anything about others?" Shannella said directly.

"I thought you two were really in love!"

"Of course it's true. If I had to choose between the two, I would definitely choose 'Brittany'." Shannella said with a smile.

"Then I'll listen to you. You always have good taste." Wu Heng put his arm around her waist.

The second prince is gone. He may be able to cheat people outside, but it is impossible for him to really sit on the throne.

Shannella was even happier when she heard him say that, and she said, "Let's go, there's nothing to see ahead, let's go back and get ready."

The two walked back, and Wu Heng sighed and said, "If I had known there was a party, I would have asked Minnie to bring me the dress."

There was no banquet in the original plan.

The dress my family wore for the banquet was custom-made at a high price.

I haven't worn it many times. I should have brought it with me earlier.

Shannella looked him up and down and said, "When you are not yet the focus, dressing up carefully can only add a little aura. When you are really the center of attention, being ordinary will make you look more natural."

Wu Heng said, "It's just a pity that I haven't worn that dress many times. There's really a party going on, but I haven't brought it with me yet."

"I'm holding a party on the island, why don't you go?" Shannara continued to ask.

"No, I'm shy!"

Shannella barely managed to catch her breath, and she didn't continue.

She also held several banquets on the island to entertain some representatives of the island's chamber of commerce at the time. She asked him to go, but he refused.

Now he's still complaining about not having the chance to attend the party.

Walking back along the road, I saw three figures, two large and one small, walking towards me.

The two adults were wearing leather armor, long pants, and hoods on their heads. The child in the middle was wearing a blue sports suit and a small hood.

It was obvious at a glance that it was his three ghosts who were controlling the puppets to go shopping.

When I went to check the address of the church, I didn't bring them with me.

There is nothing else to do, so just let them play by themselves.

“Xiaoxiao and the others…” Shannella said and pulled her hand away.

The three people on the opposite side were also slightly stunned when they saw the two of them.

Glenda and Benny looked at the two of them and ran over, "Uncle, give us some money."

Wu Heng said, "Don't you have pocket money?"

"At home, we don't spend money recklessly." Xiaoxiao said.

Wu Heng took out a purse from his space ring and said, "Let your Aunt Glenda hold it. If a child holds money, it will be easy for someone to target him."

"Oh, okay!" Xiaoxiao took the money happily.

Just as he turned around and was about to leave, Wu Heng continued, "There will be a banquet at the City Lord's Mansion tonight, come back early."

"Wow, there's a party! Then let's go back early." Xiaoxiao agreed happily and ran back to Glenda and Benny.

The other two waved over here and took Xiaoxiao into a shop nearby.

"They have a great relationship," said Shannara.

"Xiaoxiao plays well with anyone."

As they talked, they got on a carriage parked on the side of the road and returned directly to the City Lord's Mansion.

……

In the afternoon, the City Lord's Mansion began to get busy.

The entire building began to be cleaned again, and the flags and paintings in the living room were replaced, mostly related to the association and Treasure Island.

Wait until it gets dark.

The crystal chandelier in the living room shines brightly.

The long dining table, covered with a blue and white tablecloth, was already filled with sumptuous food and fine wine.

Several maids continued to bring food to the table, which was extremely rich.

The fifth princess wore a gorgeous evening gown with a sapphire blue background and intricate patterns embroidered with gold thread.

At the collar, the skin was white as snow with a blue gem.

Looks more mature than previous images.

Next to the fifth princess was Shannara, who was dressed in light blue. She had a beautiful and mature appearance and a faint smile on her face.

She wasn't dressed too formally; it looked like all the gorgeous outfits were on the Fifth Princess.

As the time goes.

Horse-drawn carriages entered the courtyard one after another, and important members of the association and representatives of the local chamber of commerce got off the carriages.

He straightened his clothes and walked towards the door.

Being invited to a hero's banquet is a treatment that not everyone can have, even some kings and princes.

Everyone who came was very excited and prepared valuable gifts.

"Your Highness, who is the leader of Wu Heng?" Several businessmen came over together.

The fifth princess smiled and said, "The leader is talking to someone upstairs."

Everyone looked at each other, and one of them took out a gift box. When he opened it, there was a white pearl the size of a goose egg inside.

"Your Highness, I went out to sea a few days ago and got a rare white pearl, which is just right for your noble temperament."

The first person spoke, and the others followed suit.

"Your Highness, I also have a Frost Moon Crystal here. I'm sure you will like it."

"What I brought is dragon blood fruit, which will be of great help to your improvement."

The Fifth Princess still kept smiling. "You're so polite. Just send it over there and someone will register it."

"Okay!" Everyone took their gifts and walked to the other side.

The fifth princess said to Shannara, "They spent a lot of money. It's my father's birthday, and that's it."

Shannella smiled and said, "They are just merchants. If you invite some kings or clan leaders, they can give better things. Not everyone will have the opportunity to attend the hero's banquet."

"You're right."

Shannara continued, "Use the leader's name to gain more connections for yourself."

"Yes!" The fifth princess nodded again.

The two chatted in low voices, their eyes falling on the door at the same time, seeing two figures walking in.

Their eyes fixed at the same time.

The priests of the Vatican...

The fifth princess immediately said, "The leader is called Nasir, an 18th-level priest, and the woman is Adrienne, who is a slightly lower level. They are both clergymen of the association, and I did not invite them.

The two walked in and bowed slightly, "Your Highness."

The fifth princess smiled and said, "Priest Nasir, welcome."

"During the investigation team, I had the honor of investigating with Chief Wu Heng, and this time I came here to join in the fun." Nasir said.

The fifth princess raised her eyebrows. It didn't sound like she was here to cause trouble.

Besides, it is not rational for a priest to come and cause trouble for the hero. "You are welcome. Please come in." The fifth princess continued.

The priestess glanced at the many men and women in the hall and asked, "Princess, who is the leader?"

The fifth princess still answered, "The leader is still upstairs and will be there when the banquet starts."

"Okay!" The two priests nodded and walked directly into the hall.

Immediately some members of the association came over and started talking to them.

Shannara looked back, took out her cell phone, and sent a message to Wu Heng, telling him that two priests had arrived, and from their words and attitude, they did not seem to be looking for trouble.

……

In the study upstairs.

Wu Heng glanced at the text message on his phone and turned it off again.

Sitting opposite were the elf elder Tapani and the old wizard Janvito, and the three of them had been chatting for a while.

Tapani said with emotion: "In just a few months, you have become a hero."

Gianvito picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Yeah, some people live that long and still become elders..."

Tapani glared at the other person and said, "Wu Heng has become a hero, why are you showing off?"

Wu Heng said: "I just have some opportunities, my real strength is not that high."

"Being a hero means everything. Nothing else matters." Tapani said, and then continued, "The Fifth Princess said you built a church in the city?"

"Heroes Hall, let's build it up by trial and error first." Wu Heng said.

Gianvito asked curiously, "The Vatican..."

"I have reported to our headquarters and there is no problem with the procedure." Wu Heng said casually.

Seeing that he knew what was going on, the two of them stopped talking.

Tapani looked at Janvito and said with a smile, "You old man, you hesitated at that time and did not accept Wu Heng as your apprentice. I'm afraid you regret it now!"

When this matter was mentioned, Gianvito showed a little embarrassment on his face and said, "If I had accepted him as an apprentice, it might have affected his promotion. It's also good now."

"You say it easily, I'm afraid you've been regretting it for a long time!"

"I don't want to talk to you, the guy who wields swords."

Wu Heng listened to what the two said and continued to ask, "Is the investigation of the Yeke Kingdom still going on?"

The two stubborn people looked over at the same time, and Tapani said, "It's still going on, but it's being investigated by an archbishop of the Holy See. After the leader went back, there has been basically no progress."

Wu Heng asked directly, "Is there anything wrong with the eldest prince?"

Tapani took another sip of tea and said, "There must be a problem. It depends on how it is determined in the end. But I feel that this department should not have the intention of replacing the other party."

That's true. If the association wanted to replace the eldest prince, it would have done it long ago. There would be no need to wait until now without a result.

Probably, they also had high hopes for the eldest prince, so they asked him to cut off ties with other sects and continue to manage the Yeko Kingdom.

The two people on the opposite side didn't want to reveal too much.

The royal dispute in the Yeke Kingdom is related to Wu Heng, the fifth princess, and the second prince. Talking too much about it may cause trouble for oneself.

Wu Heng did not ask any more questions, his eyes fell on Janvito, "Dean!"

Gianvito narrowed his eyes and said warily, "I don't care about these things, just ask Tapani."

"What are you thinking about?" Wu Heng said with a smile, "Do you have any skill books? Lend me a few."

"You are from the Undead faction, why do you want to borrow a skill book from me?" Gianvito asked back.

"Arm your brain." Wu Heng replied.

Janvito thought for a moment, then said, "I can lend you the skill book, but I have a request."

"You said..." Wu Heng said seriously.

"You join our magic research society, and prepare a place for me on Treasure Island as the venue for our magic research society." Gianvito said directly.

Before, when I heard that Wu Heng became a hero, I wanted to write a letter to tell about it.

As soon as I learned that the other party had become a hero, I wrote a letter immediately, which seemed a bit too attentive, so the letter was not sent.

Now is the perfect time, since the other party has brought up this matter, I can also take the opportunity to talk about it.

Wu Heng glanced at the other party. Last time, he took the initiative to join, but Janvito still had to think about it. After becoming a hero, he still took the initiative to let himself in.

After thinking carefully in his mind, he said, "Sure, I also have a strong interest in magic knowledge."

"Okay then. I'll notify them and arrange for someone to go to Treasure Island to handle this matter. You can look at the skill books of the research institute at will."

Wu Heng nodded, indicating that it was okay.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, "Chief, the guests are almost here."

"Okay, I'll go down now." Wu Heng said, then looked at the two people opposite him and said, "Elder, Dean, everyone is here, let's not ruin everyone's fun, let's go down early."

The two nodded and walked downstairs together.

……

The three of them went downstairs.

The hall was noisy and all you could see were men and women dressed in different styles and looking luxurious.

At the stairs, when the three of them came down from upstairs.

The guests in the inner hall took a casual look and could not take their eyes away, their gazes were fixed firmly on the three people.

Tapani, Gianvito and the others were all known to him, but the other one…

The hall was silent as everyone just watched.

The fifth princess stood up and bowed slightly, "Master Chief."

Wow~!

Everyone's eyes instantly became excited. They stretched their necks to take a closer look and followed suit in saluting.

They shouted in a disorganized manner, "Master Chief."

Wu Heng glanced at everyone and also looked at the two priests not far away. He remembered the male priest and had been on the investigation team with him.

He retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "Okay, everyone is here to attend the banquet, so be casual and eat first."

After saying that, he took Tapani and Gianvito and sat down at the upper position.

The others followed suit and took their seats.

Wu Heng raised his glass and gestured to the people below. The hall became noisy again and the banquet officially began.

……

After a few glasses of fruit wine.

The fifth princess began to bring some local officials and chamber of commerce representatives to toast and bring some gifts.

Especially the female relatives accompanied by some dignitaries, they expressed some charming expressions intentionally or unintentionally.

And those dignitaries continued to introduce themselves and the Chamber of Commerce as if they hadn't seen anything.

"Chief Wu Heng!" Two priests came over and bowed slightly.

"Priest Nasir!" Wu Heng also smiled.

He didn't have a good relationship with the Holy See, but he had fought with Nasir after all, and Wu Heng had saved his life.

Nasir introduced the person beside him, "This is Priest Adrien, she is stationed here with me."

"Master," the priestess saluted.

"Hello there!"

Nasir sat down and said softly, "Chief, are you going to build a church in the city?"

Sure enough, the topic came to this.
