This was a family feast.
Heavenly Underworld Empire was one of the three great empires under the human race's technology faction in the third universe.
There were countless small countries under it, and countless administrative planets under the small countries. It could be said that the Heavenly Underworld Empire's territory was boundless.
Although the Emperors of the three great empires were foreign officials, they were still considered as vassal kings in the entire immortal dynasty. Their status was extremely high.
Even if Prince Xuan and the three-star general of the Empire's Immortal Army, Naples, and the Heavenly Underworld Empire's Emperor still had to express goodwill, it was basically just a gesture on the surface. It was done for the Empire to see.
However, it would be a joke if the Heavenly Underworld Empire's Emperor were to flatter Prince Xuan's three star general, Naples, like the Heavenly Dust Empire's Emperor.
After all, he was one of the three vassal kings of the dynasty. Whether it was his status or the authority he held, he was definitely not comparable to a three star general of the immortal army or a popular prince with no real power.
As for Emperor Tian Ming's Imperial Uncle Long Tianba, he had to be more low-key. After all, Long Tianba was the Immortal Emperor's brother.
There was something that had to be said here. The current Immortal Emperor was ranked eighth among the brothers, and was the eighth prince of the previous generation. Therefore, whether it was the First Imperial Uncle or the Second Imperial Uncle Long Tianba, they were both the Immortal Emperor's brothers.
Of course, the Imperial Uncles here were only relative to Prince Xuan's generation. Above Long Tianba and the Immortal Emperor, there was a generation of Grand Imperial Uncles. They were the true elders of the Immortal Emperor's generation. Their strength was also extremely terrifying.
However, under normal circumstances, they rarely showed themselves. They were all in seclusion, and the only thing in their hearts was to comprehend the great dao!
Regarding the arrival of the Stronghold Fleet, the Heavenly Underworld Empire's Emperor didn't need to show himself. It was enough for the empire's royal family and important officials to receive them. However, because Imperial Uncle Long Tianba was also in the fleet, Emperor Tian Ming, who rarely showed himself on the Heavenly Underworld Planet, came out of seclusion and showed his face at the banquet.
On the surface, Emperor Tian Ming looked like a middle-aged man in his forties, with a square face and a dignified appearance, but his actual age was clearly much higher.
No one would care too much about this. In the context of the starry sky, even the lifespan of an ordinary citizen was close to three hundred years, not to mention the lifespan of a cultivator. Any random Starry Sky cultivator in the crowd would be a thousand-year-old monster, and some extremely powerful existences would have a lifespan of more than ten thousand years.
Although Emperor Tian Ming showed up, he didn't stay for long. He only stayed for about ten minutes before he excused himself and left.
But before he left, he stared deeply at Ye Xuan. His gaze lingered on him for more than three seconds. This was extremely unusual. It made Ye Xuan, who was originally a fake, feel his heart skip a beat. He felt a little guilty.
Fortunately, Emperor Tian Ming didn't say anything. He quickly retracted his gaze and turned to leave.
Ye Xuan pondered about this for a while and felt that there shouldn't be any other problem. Perhaps Emperor Tian Ming was just a little curious about Prince Xuan's recent rise, so he took a few more glances.
There was no deeper meaning!
Therefore, he quickly threw this matter to the back of his mind.
The banquet was held in the Imperial Palace's National Banquet Hall, and the scene was very grand. After the banquet, Ye Xuan and the others were arranged to stay in the Imperial Hall outside the palace. This was the hall where the empire entertained the most distinguished guests. As a prince of the empire, Ye Xuan naturally had the right to stay here.
When the fleet arrived at the Heavenly Underworld Planet, it was morning, so the banquet just now was considered a luncheon.
What surprised Ye Xuan was that not long after he returned to the Imperial Hall with the Neapolitan admiral, the Purplish Warbler, and the wretched Mosquito Slayer, he received a new banquet invitation. Someone actually came to invite him to the banquet.
The banquet invitation had the Xuanyuan family's emblem. Seeing this emblem, Ye Xuan couldn't help but smile bitterly. He probably had to attend this banquet. No matter what, he still had to give face to the Purplish Warbler.
The reason why the Xuanyuan family sent over the banquet invitation so quickly was actually related to Naples. His two confidants, who were at the level of major generals, didn't attend the national banquet in the Heavenly Underworld Empire's Imperial Palace. Once they arrived at the Heavenly Underworld Planet, they went to the Xuanyuan family.
On behalf of Prince Xuan, they sent over a huge gift!
Previously, because of the Purplish Warbler, the Xuanyuan family had already decided to fully support Prince Xuan. Later on, as Prince Xuan's reputation became more and more prominent, the entire Xuanyuan family was very pleased with their decision back then. Now, Prince Xuan was definitely the kind of person that countless families would fight to submit to.
Not to mention the families of the three great Imperial Capitals, even those imperial families on the Undying Star of the Undying Dynasty, who hadn't yet sided with a prince and had been observing from the sidelines, felt that it was time to choose a side after Prince Xuan made it to the Heaven Roll.
Under such circumstances, Prince Xuan was about to arrive at the Heavenly Underworld Planet. Furthermore, the Purplish Warbler had always been with him. They had entered the First Universe twice in a row. Not to mention the feelings between the two of them, just this huge contribution made the Xuanyuan family very happy.
Originally, the Xuanyuan family was still considering how they should approach Prince Xuan this time. However, with the arrival of the two major generals of the Undying Star Army, this problem was no longer a problem.
As a popular prince of the dynasty, he immediately sent someone to deliver a huge gift the moment he arrived at the Heavenly Underworld Planet. This was clearly the rhythm of a betrothal gift!
With the arrival of the two major generals, the entire Xuanyuan family was as festive as the new year. Family Head Xuanyuan Duo, who was also the Purplish Warbler's father, immediately issued a series of orders. The entire Xuanyuan family started to move and prepare for the wedding banquet immediately.
The reason why it was called a wedding banquet was because the entire Xuanyuan family was decorated with lanterns and colored banners. The big red "Xi" character could be seen everywhere. It was almost no different from a wedding banquet.
Of course, Prince Xuan was a prince of the dynasty. Not to mention a real wedding banquet, even an engagement banquet was not something the Xuanyuan family dared to easily hold in private without a representative from the dynasty present.
However, although the wedding banquet and engagement banquet could not be held formally, it was completely possible to create such a spectacle on the surface.
As such, everyone knew that although it was a formal wedding banquet, it was also equivalent to half announcing the marriage between Prince Xuan and Xuanyuan.
Even the Purplish Warbler did not know about all these arrangements, let alone Ye Xuan.
After receiving the banquet invitation and seeing the Xuanyuan family emblem on it, Ye Xuan immediately shook his head helplessly and bitterly smiled. "We just finished one meal, and now there's a second one. Furthermore, we have to go. This is too much …"
