Chapter 278 A strange banquet
Chapter 278 A strange banquet
The moon is rising.
Qin Xiaoxian looked at Gong Lan, who was covered in bruises and purples, packing her clothes in strips of cloth with tears in her eyes. He also had a big head.
Although I used to hang out in weathered places a lot, and when I had money on earth, I always exchanged postures and movements with the ladies. Even after I came to Naifa Continent, I was first under the restraint of Lao Chang Xiaojiu, and later under the supervision of Cen Zhi. There are fewer people going there, but you can still sneak in and spend a lot of money.
But what kind of thing is this today?
Look at Gong Lanxin again.
Although she has gone through a lot of things in the past two years, how can an eighty-year-old emperor magician who is obsessed with promotion compare with Qin Xiaoxian, who is in his twenties, has both demons and spirits, and is full of demonic power?
So now Gong Lan's heart feels sore, ashamed and a little... unfinished.
"Ahem, um, um..." Qin Xiaoxian felt that he should say something, but he didn't know what to say.
"Needless to say, this was an accident and I won't take it seriously."
Gong Lanxin turned her back to Qin Xiaoxian and pretended to speak calmly.
Qin Xiaoxian could only remain silent.
What else can be done?
She is the princess of the Fusion Nuclear Empire, but she is a person from the future time and space. To be precise, to the Naifa continent, she is an alien from another planet.
But looking at Gong Lanxin's back, Qin Xiaoxian couldn't help but frown: "When you find the time and space rift, you come with me. I will try my best to ensure your safety."
Gong Lan was startled, then shook her head: "It's impossible. I thought so before, but then I understood that this is my fate, and I can't escape."
Qin Xiaoxian understood that Gong Lan was referring to the Gong family, but this sense of fate made him feel very familiar.
A damn feeling of being destined by fate and unable to escape, escape or change.
Gong Lanxin turned to look at Qin Xiaoxian. Seeing his serious face, she smiled bitterly, struggled to get up, and staggered back to the bedroom.
Qin Xiaoxian felt for the first time that he was a bit of a scumbag.
Touching his nose, Qin Xiaoxian laughed at himself: "I have slept with the rich man's daughter, the gangster's female hall master, and the rebel leader's daughter. Why did a concubine make me feel guilty today?"
So Qin Xiaoxian smiled solemnly and turned around and left.
He has never been one to be restrained.
A month later.
A voice came from outside the house: "Your Majesty and the Grand Magister have invited Gong Lanxin to a banquet in the Mage Tower. Chef Qin Xiaoxian will prepare it first."
Mage tower? Going to a banquet?
Qin Xiaoxian looked at Gong Lanxin.
Gong Lanxin went out to receive the order and came back to look at Qin Xiaoxian.
She knew that currently only Jiang Chuyang's mage tower had not been explored, and the seal was most likely there.
"Xiaoxian, this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you..." Gong Lanxin raised her eyebrows.
"I know. It seems that we are likely to say goodbye." Qin Xiaoxian smiled.
Gong Lanxin suddenly became heroic and said: "Thank you for your companionship over the years. I hope you can return to your time and space and don't forget me."
Qin Xiaoxian started talking to himself: "This Jiang Chuyang, why do you want to entertain you at the mage tower?"
"Why do you want to do this at this time? Give me a hug. After all, you are leaving." Only she knows what is behind Gong Lanxin's smiling face.
Qin Xiaoxian frowned and thought, and subconsciously hugged Gong Lanxin.
Gong Lanxin pursed her lips and said nothing more.
The night breeze was blowing, and the dark clouds in the sky were constantly flowing, but they were getting darker and darker.
I could vaguely see thunder and lightning flashing occasionally in the clouds.
It is going to rain.
In the palace of the capital of the Fusion Core Empire, the tallest mage tower was brightly lit.
In the central hall, Jiang Chuyang was sitting in the main seat. The Emperor and Queen of Xiashuli, as well as the two old guards behind them, all had serious faces.
Opposite him, Gong Lanxin seemed a little embarrassed.
Qin Xiaoxian served the food in person because other chambermaids and maids were not allowed to come here.
But when he saw this occasion, he immediately discovered a problem.
Gong Lanxin's presence seemed a bit out of place.
"There is something wrong with this banquet." Qin Xiaoxian felt something was wrong keenly.
But he didn't feel the danger, so there are two possibilities: first, it was just a family dinner; second, it was not aimed at him.
The first one was definitely wrong, because as far as he knew, Jiang Chuyang had never entertained anyone at the mage tower.
The only people who have always lived in the Mage Tower are the eighth-level Grand Mage from the Fusion Core Empire, and except for the servants allowed by the Grand Mage, others can only enter by invitation.
There is indeed a problem.
"Stay back." The emperor saw Qin Xiaoxian finishing the last magic dish and gave the order.
"Don't leave. Chef Qin has worked hard over the past two years and opened up a new world of cooking for us. However, no magician is willing to use magic to cook, even if it means death, he is not willing to give in, so Chef Qin really endures the humiliation. "What do you think, Your Majesty?" Jiang Chuyang spoke.
This is indeed the case. Even if they know that magic can be used to cook amazing food, no magician is willing to do so. They feel that this is blaspheming their own magic and will be abandoned by magic.
Even magicians who were born as civilians, or magicians who were captured or sentenced to death were unwilling to do this.
As the saying goes, magicians can die, but magic cannot cook!
Even if the queen is extremely greedy, she can only ask Qin Xiaoxian to cook it, but she doesn't know how to cook with magic.
As for Qin Xiaoxian, who would be serious with a doomed dead man who cultivates both demons and spirits?
But Jiang Chuyang's move of leaving Qin Xiaoxian behind still attracted the attention of the emperor, queen and Qin Xiaoxian.
"What on earth is he going to do?" A thought flashed through the three of them at the same time.
However, no one would argue with that.
"Since Grandpa has spoken, you can stay." The emperor smiled, giving Jiang Chuyang face, but actually giving himself a step up.
"Thank you for your great grandson, haha." Jiang Chuyang laughed. The emperor and queen also laughed at the word "great grandson". Only the owner of the smile knew what the emotion in this smile was.
Qin Xiaoxian performed a magician's salute, and then stood silently behind Gong Lanxin, like the two legal guards behind the emperor and empress.
Jiang Chuyang picked up the wine glass, motioned to everyone present to raise their glasses, and then drank one himself.
Both the emperor and the empress put down their wine glasses after holding them. Only Gong Lanxin took a sip, but looked at the emperor and empress but did not drink. She held up the glass and didn't know what to do.
Qin Xiaoxian clearly felt the tense nerves of the two legal guards behind the emperor and empress.
There is a seventh-level legal guard and a sixth-level legal guard. The spiritual power in the two people's bodies is almost flying, and they are always in a state of being fought.
Qin Xiaoxian, on the other hand, was frantically suppressing the four-in-one energy core in his body for fear of being discovered.
Fortunately, no one would doubt the cultivation level of a person who cultivates both demons and spirits.
"I wonder what happened when my great-grandfather called us here today and also called Gong Jun's granddaughter." The emperor spoke.
Jiang Chuyang put down his wine glass and smiled.
