This moment, the banquet hall of Nalan Empire's imperial palace was already decorated brilliantly. Various colored magic lamps were either inlaid or hung on every corner of this banquet hall. Moreover, the banquet hall was filled with officials as well as their family dressed in various styles formal attire, thus the hall was lively.

Long Yi and Nalan Ruyue stood upstairs watching the crowd continuously shutting back and forth below, and they couldn't help having a headache. Honestly speaking, both of them were not too interested in this kind of occasion. Just recalling the ceremony at Soaring Dragon Empire with those numerous and complicated protocols nearly made them collapse. They wondered if this ceremony of Nalan Empire would be a bit simpler.

At this moment, Nalan Wuji along with his few beloved imperial concubines entered the banquet hall, and instantly, some powerful ministers and n.o.bles went to bootlick one after another. According to the usual practice of Blue Waves Continent, in banquet or so on unofficial occasions, monarch and his subjects were extremely casual.

”Princess, son-in-law, it is time to go down.” A palace female official reminded in a low voice.

”Then, let's go down, my beautiful princess.” Long Yi turned towards Nalan Ruyue and said with a smile, then lifted his right elbow signaling Nalan Ruyue to hold him.

Nalan Ruyue shyly smiled faintly, then raising her hand, she gently held the arm of Long Yi and then gracefully walked down the stairs.

The appearance of the two immediately attracted the gaze of everyone present. Now, Long Yi had a confident and carefree smile, whereas Nalan Ruyue's beautiful face was slightly red and coupled with her G.o.ddess-like beauty as well as that n.o.ble and reserved temperament, they simply were a perfect match. All of a sudden, everybody was full of praise in succession.

Long Yi brought along Nalan Ruyue to the front of Nalan Wuji, and looking around, he sized up two gorgeously dressed youths beside him. Looking at the pattern of their attire, they should be imperial sons of Nalan Wuji, i.e. Nalan Ruyue's half-big brothers. According to the information he obtained from Ximen Nu, one of them was a warrior and another was a magician. Their realm wasn't low, one was Swordsman, and another one was Intermediate Magician. The one who was a warrior was called Nalan Wu, and the magician was called Nalan Wen. Both of them and previous Ximen Yu were jackals from the same lair, out-and-out profligate sons.

”Father, big brothers.” Nalan Ruyue indifferently greeted but her beautiful eyes had a trace of suppressed disgust.

Nalan Wuji nodded his head with a smile and kindly looked at them, but who didn't know he was a cold-blooded, cunning and merciless person? For the sake of profit, he could sacrifice anything.

”Brother-in-law, I've long heard your well-known name, how about you accompany us brothers to drink tomorrow? We admire you very much, and have some issues where we want your advice.” Nalan brothers were excited to meet Long Yi. They felt as if they found a like-minded brother.

Long Yi made a perfunctory smile, but in his heart, he was pitying Nalan Wuji who had used any means possible and also taken great pains to build up and run the empire. If the empire fell into the hands of these two brothers, then it certainly would be fun at that time.

The time of the ceremony was almost here, but Nalan Wuji however was just smiling and chatting with some favored ministers without the slightest intention to announce the start of the ceremony.

”Your Majesty, it's time, shouldn't……” A minister beside Nalan Wuji reminded him.

Nalan Wuji faintly smiled and said: ”We still have to wait for a person to come and host, it doesn't matter if it is a bit late.”

”Your Majesty, could it be that the bishop of Blue Moon City will come to host the ceremony?” This monster asked curiously.

Nalan Wiji mysterious smiled and said: ”Of course not. You will know when that person arrives.”
