When they sensed this power and heard that there were 400 flower seeds, many people couldn't help but gasp. At the same time, they couldn't help but guess Jian Wushuang's intentions, or rather, Wu Li's intentions.
Jian Wushuang was an Imperial Lord, so how could he take out such a treasure? Many people believed that it was Wu Li who had taken out the treasure and placed the favor on Jian Wushuang.
If this Hundred Flower Vine was auctioned now, it would definitely be sold for three million cosmos crystals.
However, after three days, it would only be worth 300,000 cosmos crystals at most.
Very few Third Tribulation Imperial Lords could take out such a huge gift.
However, no one would believe that Jian Wushuang, an Imperial Lord, would take it out.
Eldest Princess Jin Chen — who was sitting beside Mu Chen — revealed a look of hesitation when she saw it.
She focused her gaze and saw that it was indeed the Hundred Flower Vine that someone had obtained on Hundred Flowers Mountain before her.
When she looked at Jian Wushuang again, her eyes narrowed slightly.
If others thought that Wu Li had given this item away in Jian Wushuang's name after obtaining it, Eldest Princess Jin Chen felt that there was someone behind it.
It was a terrifying Fifth Tribulation Universe Lord.
Elder Mu Chen's eyes burned. He never expected Wu Li to give such a huge gift.
However, when he thought of what Wu Li had said to him a few days ago, he understood something.
After today's birthday banquet, they could have a chat.
"Nephew Wushuang, you're too polite with such a precious treasure!" This time, Mu Chen didn't agree verbally. Instead, he stood up and had a drink with Jian Wushuang.
With so many people watching, it wasn't appropriate for him to say too much.
Wu Li naturally understood, so he pulled Jian Wushuang back to his seat.
After returning to his seat, Jian Wushuang could sense many gazes on him.
These people also had their own plans.
Many people were paying attention to the Yue Nation's son-in-law selection.
From the looks of it, Wu Li was also paying attention to this matter.
The birthday celebration proceeded in an orderly manner.
Third Tribulation Imperial Lords were of the same generation as Mu Chen, so they had the most people.
More than 100 Third Tribulation Eminences came to congratulate him.
More than half of them were Universe Lords.
Only a small portion of them were scattered tribulations.
An Itinerant Tribulation expert couldn't advance any further. Their strength and status would drop significantly. There was a huge gap between them and a half-step Fourth Tribulation universe lord like Wu Li.
Apart from these people, the rest were Fourth Tribulation Eminences.
Fourth Tribulation Eminences, be it Universe Lords or Scattered Tribulation Eminences, were all Tribulation Eminences.
Their statuses far exceeded those of a Third Tribulation Eminence.
Even though Mu Chen's background and status were very high, not many people came.
The ones who came were also Fourth Tribulation Eminences from the Yue royal family and the Blue Cloud Sect.
There were six people in total.
Even though the treasures that Zhang Xuan took out were different from the others, they weren't too valuable either.
It was Mu Chen's greatest honor to be able to come.
However, Jian Wushuang noticed something. Every Fourth Tribulation Eminence brought a junior from their family clan or personal disciple with them.
Although they were all Imperial Emperors, their strength was not bad. All of them were very strong.
Moreover, he was intentionally or unintentionally recommending his own juniors.
Before Jian Wushuang could react, Wu Li sent him a voice transmission to clear his doubts.
"Brother Wushuang, you have to pay attention to these people later. There's no need to worry about their strength, but these people's backgrounds aren't simple. Their goal is the same as ours. They are all here for the Eldest Princess!"
Wu Li smiled as he looked at Jian Wushuang and nodded.
Soon, Jian Wushuang understood.
This wasn't for Mu Chen, but for the empress.
The birthday banquet was just a pretense. In fact, it was to recruit a son-in-law.
From the looks of it, the rumors were true.
The Yue Nation was serious about the son-in-law selection. Furthermore, they were very anxious to succeed.
This was probably related to the future position of Saintess.
With the empress's strength and talent, she would definitely participate in the Sacred Assembly. Her goal was also the position of Saintess.
Once she took this position, the Yue Nation's status would also rise.
When the time came, someone would need to inherit the empress's position.
The current Eldest Princess was a very suitable candidate.
It was very normal for a future empress to need a son-in-law.
Furthermore, the son-in-law selection couldn't be too strong.
It wasn't strength, but a strong background.
If one couldn't recruit a son-in-law with a strong background, one's strength didn't matter. As long as they were at the same level, it was fine even if they were stronger than the Eldest Princess.
The throne was supported by imperial power.
And imperial power was the foundation of the Yue Nation, as well as those sleeping Scattered Tribulation experts.
Jian Wushuang's current status and strength were very suitable.
On the surface, his combat strength might be weaker, but as long as he exposed some of his strength at the critical moment, there was nothing he could do.
He also observed the Imperial Emperor geniuses sitting there.
The strongest one was only the young master of a large family in the Yue Nation. This couldn't be compared to the royal family of the Yue Nation.
As for combat strength, in Jian Wushuang's opinion, it was ordinary. There wasn't anything too eye-catching.
His status couldn't be considered as an animal among these people, but he wasn't at the bottom either.
With the Wu family backing him, he could be considered a prestigious family.
Not to mention his true combat strength, just his 100,000 times base divine power was ranked at the top among these people.
It seemed that Wu Li's plan over the years had some effect.
He had unknowingly entered the vortex of this competition.
Some of the Imperial Emperor geniuses beside him also revealed unfriendly gazes when they looked at him.
It seemed that everyone had the same goal.
Jian Wushuang, on the other hand, was very calm. He sat there motionless, looking like an expert.
The birthday celebration was almost over when these people left.
Now, only the Empress had yet to speak.
Everyone was also looking forward to it.
However, they didn't dare to look directly at the Empress. Instead, they waited quietly for her to speak.
"Today is Brother's grand banquet. I also wish Brother the best of luck in his cultivation realm and breaking through the fourth tribulation!" The Empress suddenly spoke, and the atmosphere became lively.
Mu Chen hurriedly stood up and respectfully accepted the treasure from the Empress.
This time, he didn't let the servants receive it!
It was true that the Empress was his biological sister, but in order to stabilize the imperial power, everything had to be orderly. Only by taking the lead would others follow suit.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Mu Chen bowed and carefully received the treasure.
The birthday celebration had finally come to an end.
Next, it was time to get down to business.
Mu Chen first communicated with the various parties and expressed the intentions of the Yue Kingdom's royal family.
Of course, the truth wouldn't be said. Even if everyone understood, they couldn't say it directly.
"Everyone, today is my birthday. I'll take this opportunity to select a son-in-law for the Eldest Princess. Dear nephews, please don't be restrained!" After saying that, he patted the Eldest Princess's broad shoulder and gestured for her to stand up.
However, the Eldest Princess already had a sweetheart. How could she be willing?
However, when she felt an intimidating gaze, she still stood up.
Some of the Imperial Emperors who didn't know the truth sucked in a breath of cold air.
It wasn't because of the news, but because after seeing the Eldest Princess's appearance, they felt a little uncomfortable.
