No one dared to look down on Xiao Chen anymore. Under Ye Xiao and Guan Hong's enthusiasm, Xiao Chen sat down. Hongxiu also sat beside Xiao Chen obediently.
Hong Xiu wasn't nervous at all when she was with the Heirs. Furthermore, her status wasn't any lower than any of the Heirs present.
Therefore, unlike the other women at the table, Hongxiu was very relaxed and did not feel restrained at all.
After all, Hong Xiu was the daughter of the Realm Lord of the Eighth Realm. Her status alone was enough to make her as powerful as any of them present. Moreover, Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao seemed to be taking good care of Hong Xiu.
They also knew Hongxiu's status. Therefore, Guan Hong and the others had seen her before and treated her as a friend. They chatted casually as they drank.
As for Xiao Chen and Fu Rui, who everyone was most worried about, they clearly did not intend to fight again. Moreover, from their expressions, they did not seem to care about what had happened during the day.
That was true. As an Heir, if he took such a small matter to heart, then he was indeed too narrow-minded.
There was no enmity between him and Fu Rui. They had fought during the day because Fu Rui had asked for it. Naturally, Xiao Chen did not take it to heart.
On the other hand, although Fu Rui was furious, after his anger subsided, he naturally did not care.
As for pride, it was not worth mentioning in Fu Rui's eyes. Moreover, Fu Rui had not lost during the day. Moreover, with Fu Rui's status, there was no need for him to use such methods to save his pride.
The two of them did not take what had happened during the day to heart. To them, it was just a small matter. You could treat it as a friendly match.
Xiao Chen had no intention of continuing the fight. He even drank a few glasses of wine with Fu Rui and Quan Feng as they chatted. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.
As they chatted, Guan Hong suddenly mentioned the Heir of the First World.
"Sigh, it's a pity that Senior Mu Fan didn't come. Otherwise, the eight Heirs of the Hachibara Senkai would all be here."
"Senior Brother Mu Fan is in the First Realm. He won't come unless there's something important." Upon hearing his words, even Qiu Ru, who had always been cold, spoke up.
Everyone addressed Mu Fan as Senior Brother. However, Xiao Chen didn't know anything about this person. Of course, he wasn't interested in finding out anything about him.
However, when Guan Hong and Qiu Ru mentioned Mu Fan, Fu Rui, Quan Feng, and Ye Xiao unconsciously looked at Hong Xiu unnaturally.
Speaking of Mu Fan, everyone's gaze turned towards Hong Xiu. Furthermore, from the looks of it, it seemed as though the two of them had some sort of relationship.
Although he was confused, Xiao Chen didn't ask further. This was Hong Xiu's business with Mu Fan. It had nothing to do with him. Furthermore, Mu Fan was the Heir of the First Realm. He didn't have much to do with him.
He continued to drink and didn't interrupt. However, Xiao Chen noticed something. When they talked about Mu Fan, Guan Hong and the others seemed to be very respectful.
They were all Heirs of the First Realm, but Guan Hong and Qiu Ru called Mu Fan Senior Brother. Didn't this mean that Mu Fan's status was higher than everyone else's?
As Heirs of the First Realm, they should be on equal footing. However, everyone was respectful to Mu Fan. This was very strange.
Hong Xiu lowered her head and drank alone. However, when she heard Mu Fan's name, her expression turned ugly. Perhaps because he felt Hong Xiu's expression change, Ye Xiao spoke up.
"Alright, alright. Let's not talk about this. It's rare for us to gather together today. Let's drink until we're drunk."
Ye Xiao took the initiative to change the topic. Seeing this, everyone subconsciously glanced at Hong Xiu. They realized that her expression had indeed darkened. After that, no one mentioned Mu Fan again.
It seemed that Hong Xiu and Mu Fan did have some sort of relationship. Otherwise, Hong Xiu's expression wouldn't have darkened when she heard Mu Fan's name.
Furthermore, what Xiao Chen didn't notice was that when everyone talked about Mu Fan, Hong Xiu secretly glanced at Xiao Chen more than once. Her eyes revealed a hint of worry. It was as if she was afraid that Xiao Chen would be angry.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen didn't seem to be angry. His expression didn't change. Seeing this, Hong Xiu secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Everyone stopped talking about Mu Fan. Just as the Hachibara Senkai was happily drinking and drinking, the strong people from the Eight Barren Lands gathered in the distant starry sky.
At this time, they had also gathered together to host a banquet. However, compared to the Hachibara Senkai, the atmosphere here was a little more oppressive.
Just as Xiao Chen had expected, the banquet in the Eight Barren Lands had a clear priority. The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
In the main hall of a floating palace, many strong people from the Eight Barren Lands gathered together. Everyone took their seats in an orderly manner. Although there were drinks and delicious food placed in front of them, it seemed that everyone didn't have much of an appetite. They only drank a small cup from time to time.
The oppressive atmosphere was a little uncomfortable, but everyone present seemed to be used to it. No one showed the slightest bit of uneasiness.
On the main seats, the seven Will Of The Heavenly Way from the Eight Barren Lands were all present. Just like the Hachibara Senkai, except for the Will Of The Heavenly Way who was trapped in the First Realm, the other seven Will Of The Heavenly Way had all arrived.
When they gathered together, the Second Will Of The Heavenly Way's face was still a little gloomy. "Everyone from the Hachibara Senkai has gathered, right?"
"Yes, it looks like this battle is going to be interesting." Hearing this, the Third Will Of The Heavenly Way laughed softly.
"I think we should take action tomorrow. There will be a battle sooner or later anyway." Seeing this, the Fourth Will Of The Heavenly Way said.
There would be a battle sooner or later. Sooner or later, there would be a battle. Hearing the Fourth Will Of The Heavenly Way's words, the other Will Of The Heavenly Way nodded in agreement.
However, just as everyone was deciding to attack the next day, the Fifth Desolate's Will of the Heavenly Way spoke, "This war is unprecedented. We have to be fully prepared. If we can't take back the Second Desolate, what should we do? We can't keep wasting our time here with the Hachibara Senkai. "
One must have the belief to win, but one must also be prepared for failure. Hearing the Fifth Will Of The Heavenly Way's words, everyone's eyes focused on the Second Will Of The Heavenly Way.
After all, he was the master of the Second Barren Lands. What would happen in the end depended on his decision.
Under everyone's gaze, the Second Will Of The Heavenly Way drank the wine in his cup in one gulp. Then, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly, "I'd rather die in glory than live in dishonor."
