Did Wuzhi Qi admit his guilt? Did he admit his guilt? Was he scared after being beaten up badly?
No one thought so.
Everyone who knew about Wuzhi Qi's personality knew that this was the first time in his life that he admitted defeat and admitted his guilt. This could only mean that a bigger storm was brewing. And when Wuzhi Qi's sky-devouring fury burst out, the first one to bear the brunt of it would certainly be Earl Yao!
However, some observant people had all noticed that Ji Hao's Flame Dragon Sword easily penetrated Wuzhi Qi's lower abdomen, and also noticed that Ji Hao's mountain and river stamper broke Wuzhi Qi's skull, nearly beating him to death.
Flame Dragon Sword and mountain and river stamper were both powerful treasures that even ordinary Magus Kings couldn't attain. Ji Hao had such powerful treasures. Perhaps, there would be a time when sparks flew between him and Wuzhi Qi.
The celebratory banquet was paused for less than a quarter of an hour. After Wuzhi Qi admitted his guilt, he sulkily left the Town Hall. The others continued eating, drinking, and having fun, enjoying this hard-earned, unprecedented victory.
The banquet lasted for a whole night, then a whole day. Only in the late night of the second day did this banquet finally end.
Countless drunk people were supported by guards, sitting in vehicles, riding on mounts, or walking around while practicing their drunken fists. All these people went back to their residences in Pu Ban City. Some of them were drunk, standing on the ground and yelling. The hysterical yells of these drunkards could be heard by a big half of Pu Ban City.
Ji Hao didn't go back to Fine Jade Snow Palace. Instead, he was dragged to Si Xi's residence by Si Wen Ming.
In a small house with a thatched roof, a group of chubby old hens huddled in the yard. From time to time, two large roosters would raise their heads, nodding and looking around. By the door of the yard, a few tamed iron-teeth cyan wolves lied on the doorsill, lazily snoring.
Above the fire pit in the main house, a few chubby lambs were grilled until their oil flowed out, emitting a dense aroma.
On the charcoal fire in the fire pit, a few large wine jars were opened. The wine had already been warmed up by the fire, and the aroma of the wine spread everywhere, making people feel intoxicated.
Ji Hao took off his shoes and socks and sat on the perfectly clean wooden floor beside the fire pit. Two maids, who were wearing long black dresses and had their long hair tied into beautiful buns with red ribbons, silently walked over, cut a few pieces of lamb meat with stone knives and put them on a clay plate, then put them in front of Ji Hao.
The movements of the two maids were gentle and beautiful. They gently scooped out the amber-colored sticky wine from the wine jars with long bamboo spoons, then poured it into a bronze cup and politely handed it to Ji Hao.
Si Wen Ming sat beside the fire pit, smilingly pointed at the wine cup held in Ji Hao's hand and said, "Try it, this is the dragon-bone wine made by my grandpa. It has been stored in a cave with dense earth power for one hundred and eighty years, it tastes pretty good."
Si Wen Ming sat beside the fire pit, smilingly pointed at the cup held in Ji Hao's hand and said, "Try it, this is the dragon-bone wine made by my grandpa. It has been stored in a cave with dense earth power for one hundred and eighty years, it tastes pretty good."
The wine was so strong that Ji Hao felt like a red-hot iron pillar had pierced straight into his lower abdomen from his throat. A great heat spread out and transformed into torrents, spreading across his entire body. Ji Hao grimaced in pain, and a thin layer of sweat oozed out of his body. Ji Hao stretched his arms and legs, and his bones let out a series of creaking noise. This small cup of wine had actually given him a great deal of strength.
"Dragon-bone wine?" Ji Hao curiously looked at Si Wen Ming.
"Shh!" Si Wen Ming put a finger in front of his lips, lowered his voice and said, "To the public, my family only calls it tiger-bone wine. Haha, this is dragon-bone wine made from the marrow of a fallen ancient dragon king, but we can't let those dragon-kind people know about this. "
Ji Hao grinned, then handed the wine cup to a maid. The maid chuckled, then filled Ji Hao's cup again.
The door of the main room opened, and Si Xi walked in with two plump white fishes and a multicolored poisonous boa in his hands. He glanced at the people in the room, shook his head and said, "That fatso, that little fatso named Yu Mu didn't come? The snake soup he made tastes good. What a shame, I especially caught a five-flower viper for him! "
Ji Hao glanced at that nine-zhang long poisonous boa, which had been twisting and struggling ceaselessly, grinned and said, "Good stuff! You don't need to make snake soup, you can grill it. Southern Wasteland rainforest is full of poisonous bugs and snakes, and I'm good at cooking these things. "
Si Xi smilingly shook his head, pointed at Ji Hao and said, "I have something to discuss with you, you don't have to do it. Just take them and fix them! "
The two maids stood up, politely took over the white fishes and the poisonous boa from Si Xi's hands, then silently walked to the kitchen.
Si Xi sat down by the fire pit as well, comfortably stretching his pair of long legs, stretched his body, then yawned loudly and said, "Ah, it's finally over. But I still have so many troublesome things to deal with, what a headache! "
A series of footsteps came from the yard. Not long after that, Huaxu Lie and Lie Mountain Kang walked in and sat by the fire pit without saying a word.
A noise came from outside. Tens of guards came with them and scattered around the yard, guarding the entire yard. A strong power vibration spread out from the air. Ji Hao sensed that a few Divine-Magus-level magic treasures had been activated, releasing invisible magic screens that shrouded the yard.
Huaxu Lie and Lie Mountain Kang helped themselves to two cups of wine. No one said anything. After around ten minutes, the door opened, and Emperor Shun, Hao Tao and a few other men walked in with big steps.
Ji Hao subconsciously leaped up from the ground and solemnly saluted to Emperor Shun. His heart beat quickly. Si Wen Ming dragged him to Si Xi's place after the banquet. He knew that they would talk about some confidential things, but he never thought that Emperor Shun would show up in person.
Emperor Shun pressed his palm on Ji Hao's shoulder, smiled gently and said, "Earl Yao, no need to be so polite."
The group of people simply greeted each other, then sat around the fire pit. Each of them had a clay plate and a bronze wine cup. They cut the meat and poured the wine for themselves, and began eating and drinking to their heart's content.
After eating and drinking for a while, Emperor Shun put down the wine cup. Everyone stopped eating and looked at Emperor Shun simultaneously.
Remaining silent for a while, Emperor Shun said blandly with a trace of bitterness, "You are all senior ministers of our humankind, and have always been scheming. Earl Yao, you are a newcomer, but newcomers always have new ideas. Today, let's put our heads together and discuss, how should we deal with all the troubles caused by the Chi Ban Mountain war? "
Ji Hao looked at Emperor Shun confusedly, while Lie Mountain Kang put his mouth near Ji Hao's ear and told him everything that had happened.
Ji Hao finally understood that after the Chi Ban Mountain war, everyone seemed to have been rewarded, the sky-offering ceremony was finished, and the celebratory banquet was over. Therefore, it was time for them to live a peaceful life.
But in fact, there was still a huge trouble left after the Chi Ban Mountain war. Back then, Ying Yunpeng led the archers from Ten Sun Country and Eastern Wasteland to launch a counterattack, and tens of clans' armies betrayed the humankind. By now, Ying Yunpeng and the other clan leaders were all secretly imprisoned in a prison in Pu Ban City, and those rebellious warriors were all imprisoned in Chi Ban Mountain.
What should they do with these people?
Emperor Shun didn't know what to do about this.
