Wan Yannian still needed to take precautions.
Xu Fengqiu was too formidable.
Step by step, how long had it been? He had already begun to destroy Emperor-level forces.
He really worried that before long, Xu Fengqiu could pose a threat to God-level forces.
After all, a long time ago, Medicine God Mountain, which had just been promoted to a God-level force, was completely wiped out because it went to the Xu family in the Eighth Heaven.
In that battle, Medicine God Mountain was directly crippled.
Xu Fengqiu possessed this legendary ability.
Therefore, if Xu Fengqiu could be eliminated before he was completely full-fledged, Wan Yannian would wholeheartedly support it.
At this time, the Tianxuan Emperor and the Prime Minister also walked over together.
Seeing the arrival of the Tianxuan Emperor, everyone also stood up one after another.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Although many of those present were Sect Leaders of top forces,
after all, he was the Emperor, and it was his occasion.
They definitely had to give some face on such occasions.
Of course, there was no need to kneel; just a salute would suffice.
The Tianxuan Emperor glanced at everyone, and then revealed a smile: "Everyone, there is no need to be too polite. They are all familiar faces, all famous existences in my Tianxuan Empire. Today, there is no need for too many formalities. Please take your seats."
Everyone sat down one after another.
Various spiritual fruits and delicacies were also placed on the table.
The Tianxuan Emperor glanced at the crowd again.
There were still some people who hadn't arrived.
The key was that Xu Fengqiu hadn't arrived yet.
They also chatted casually for a while.
At this time, Xu Fengqiu walked in alone.
Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Fengqiu in unison.
Everyone present had heard of Xu Fengqiu's great name.
But there were indeed some who had never actually seen Xu Fengqiu.
When some people saw Xu Fengqiu's true face with their own eyes, they indeed felt that he was no ordinary person.
"Hahaha, Sect Leader Xu, you've finally arrived. This Emperor has been waiting for you so long that the flowers have withered."
The Tianxuan Emperor saw Xu Fengqiu, and then put on a particularly amiable and enthusiastic appearance.
Those who didn't know would have thought that Xu Fengqiu and this Tianxuan Emperor had a very good relationship.
Xu Fengqiu also clasped his fist: "Shouldn't be considered late, right?"
"Of course not late, please take your seat."
The Tianxuan Emperor gestured.
Xu Fengqiu's seat was quite forward.
At least the Tianxuan Emperor didn't play those petty and low-level humiliating tricks.
Xu Fengqiu then sat down.
The Tianxuan Emperor was in a good mood.
As long as Xu Fengqiu stepped into this hall, then everything would be enough.
"Are all the people here?"
The Tianxuan Emperor glanced around.
The Prime Minister said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there are still several Sects that have not arrived."
The Tianxuan Emperor waved his hand: "Let those who haven't arrived not come."
Then he said coldly: "Hmph! What great airs, so disregarding of this Emperor. There are several Emperor-level and God-level forces present, simply outrageous! The purpose of this banquet is for the friendly development between the major forces within the Tianxuan Empire. It seems they don't really want to be friendly."
Then the Tianxuan Emperor looked at everyone and said: "Everyone, after this banquet ends, you may need to contribute some strength. Such forces that disregard us and despise the development of the Tianxuan Empire have no need to exist."
Some people also nodded.
As for whether they would actually fight, it was still hard to say.
Anyway, they were just watching the Tianxuan Emperor act today.
"Alright, no need to waste words on these unimportant people. Since they're not coming, then they don't want to develop together with us. The banquet officially begins. Come, serve the wine!"
Then, some beautiful palace maids also walked in one after another, pouring wine for them.
"Come, everyone, let us raise our glasses together for this first cup and drink it all in one gulp."
Then, everyone drank the wine.
Then, the Tianxuan Emperor's "game" officially began.
"Hahaha."
He then laughed loudly, looked at Xu Fengqiu, and said: "Wind Emperor, aren't you afraid that this Emperor has poisoned your wine?"
After speaking, the Tianxuan Emperor glanced at everyone, and then explained to Xu Fengqiu: "The Nine Provinces are spreading rumors everywhere that this Emperor was the one who orchestrated the six major forces to besiege your Myriad Ancient First Divine Sect."
Xu Fengqiu also smiled and said lightly: "Whether the latter is true or false is not important. As for the former, even if Your Majesty has poisoned me, I'm really not afraid."
"Hahaha—"
The Tianxuan Emperor laughed again.
"Wind Emperor, speaking of this, this Emperor really believes it. All along, everyone has witnessed Xu Sect Leader's use and control of poison. It can be said that, in terms of poison, you, Xu Fengqiu, are the best in the world. I'm afraid no one has the confidence to compete with you."
The Tianxuan Emperor first praised Xu Fengqiu.
Then he said: "There's usually no opportunity, but today everyone is one of us, and so close. How about letting us feel it and learn something along the way? If anyone has the opportunity to spar, that would be great, so everyone can see what real poison is like."
Mo Wenfeng, Sect Leader of the Divine Machine Sect, directly seconded: "Yes, this Sect Leader very much agrees with His Majesty's proposal. This banquet itself is an opportunity for my Sects in the Tianxuan Empire to interact and cooperate. There's indeed usually no opportunity. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we can friendly learn from each other and spar with each other. It's very meaningful. I agree."
"Yes, that's right. We're not just targeting Sect Leader Xu. When we get to the Divine Machine Sect, we also want to see the Divine Machine Sect's divine mechanisms and other methods. Sect Leader Xu doesn't hide anything, Sect Leader Mo, don't be stingy either."
"Hahaha, that's impossible." Mo Wenfeng smiled: "This time, with His Majesty taking the lead, it's a rare opportunity for us to communicate. Everyone treat each other honestly, honestly, hahaha."
Xu Fengqiu naturally knew what these people were up to here.
Come on then.
Since Xu Fengqiu dared to come, then he was fully prepared.
Xu Fengqiu then said: "Of course there's no problem. I wonder how Your Majesty and everyone want to communicate?"
"What do you all think?"
The Tianxuan Emperor looked at everyone and asked.
Mo Wenfeng said: "I know that Sect Leader Xu's poison skills are monstrous, but I've only heard about it, and haven't personally tried it, so I always feel a little unconvinced."
Prime Minister: "Hahahaha, Sect Leader Mo's meaning is, he's heard that Sect Leader Xu can directly detoxify countless deadly poisons, and thinks it's a bit of a myth, right?"
"Yes, some poisons are inevitably lethal, but Sect Leader Xu can be safe and sound. It's indeed a bit magical. Coincidentally, this Sect Leader has a poison here, and I really want to personally see Sect Leader Xu detoxify it directly in front of everyone. After all, it's more real and convincing when it happens to oneself. Of course, this Sect Leader doesn't mean to question anything, just wants to experience it personally."
