The three of them respectfully followed behind the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation and returned to the dining room, then took their seats one by one.

The Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation sat at the head, the Green Dragon Guardian sat at the lower left, while the host, Fang Yuntian, sat at the lower right of the Biluo Heavenly Emperor. Wang Xiaoqiang humbly took the last seat.

Although he sat at the lowest position, if the other participants knew that Wang Xiaoqiang was dining with the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation, they would certainly be envious to death.

After the four took their seats, Fang Yuntian ordered the meal to begin, and soon female servants began to serve the wine and dishes, placing them in front of each of the four on the table.

The dishes and wine on the tables for the four were identical.

Six dishes, one soup. Completely uniform.

The wine was the same as well.

The meal was sumptuous and exquisite, with one meat dish made from the meat of a Divine Beast. Eating the meat of a Divine Beast would increase one's physical strength, especially for Body Cultivators, for whom the increase in strength was particularly noticeable.

After the four of them each drank a glass of wine, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation pointed at that dish and said to Wang Xiaoqiang with a smile, "Wang Xiaoqiang, this dish is made from the meat of the Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix. Not only is it delicious, but it is also beneficial to you, so make sure to eat plenty."

"Thank you for your care, Heavenly Emperor. I will certainly eat a lot," Wang Xiaoqiang replied in surprise and delight, and then began to devour the dish voraciously.

The dish made from the meat of a Divine Beast is not an ordinary dish, something not everyone can eat, and some Divine Beast meat cannot even be made into a dish, or even if it is, it is not palatable because of its poor taste,

for example, the meat of the Fire Jiao, when made into a dish, it is bitter and astringent, utterly inedible. Meat of Divine Beasts that can be made into dishes is extremely rare, like this Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix,

moreover, in the Biluo Realm, the number of Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenixes is extremely rare, and the key point is that the Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix is extremely powerful, making it very difficult to capture.

If it weren't for the fact that the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation was dining tonight, Fang Yuntian would never have been willing to kill this Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix. Even now, he still feels a great sense of loss. After all, it was a Pet Beast he had raised for over ten years.

Especially now, watching his enemy Wang Xiaoqiang devour his Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix, Fang Yuntian, feeling depressed, choked on a mouthful of rice, looking very inelegant.

The violent coughing attracted the attention of the three, and the Biluo Heavenly Emperor glanced at him, slightly frowning. Half admonishingly, half teasingly, he said, "Fang Yuntian, are you heartbroken over killing a Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix?"

Fang Yuntian, seeing that the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation had seen through his thoughts in one sentence, was immediately embarrassed. He managed to stop coughing, and replied respectfully, "The Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix was indeed one of my pets, but for it to become your dish, Heavenly Emperor, is its honor, and also my fortune... I'm not even happy enough..."

This Fang Yuntian truly knows how to speak, not leaving the slightest loophole in his words.

The Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation chuckled, "Well, that's good. Come on, everyone, eat more. Come on now, Fang Yuntian, you should eat more too."

Fang Yuntian originally did not plan to eat this dish, so he had served himself a small portion, but after the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation said this, he could only pick up a piece of the Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix's meat and put it in his mouth. Though the taste was delicious, eating the meat of his Pet Beast left him with mixed feelings and discomfort.

Wang Xiaoqiang soon finished the plate of Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix meat, and even after eating, he still seemed unsatisfied. The meat, once in the stomach, quickly turned into a warm current, spreading throughout his body, flowing into the depths of his muscles, through his limbs and bones, generating a new strength coursing inside him.

"Hmm, Heavenly Emperor wasn't joking, the meat of the Nine-Tailed Snow Phoenix is indeed beneficial to me, I feel like I've gained quite a bit of physical strength," Wang Xiaoqiang murmured to himself, simultaneously developing some trust towards the Biluo Heavenly Emperor.

He just couldn't understand why the Biluo Heavenly Emperor invited him to this banquet?

Was it merely because he valued him?

Indeed, he had potential and was very outstanding, having continuously broken records in two consecutive competitions, capturing the attention of many, and the Biluo Heavenly Emperor could not have failed to notice him,

However, his Cultivation Base was still shallow, and his strength was not enough to rival a Purple Mansion Immortal. Ultimately, he was still a pawn, and it was understandable for a Domain Lord like Chang Tianfeng to value him, but the Biluo Heavenly Emperor was the ruler of the Biluo Realm, why would she value him so highly?

Just like on Earth, an outstanding private entrepreneur might gain the attention of a county mayor or even a provincial governor, but it's impossible for the head leader of the nation to personally invite him to dinner, right?!

Wang Xiaoqiang felt that the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation inviting him to dinner couldn't be just about valuing him, there must be another purpose,

But, throughout the meal, he drank plenty of wine and ate plenty of food, yet the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation never mentioned it, only praising his potential, encouraging him to cultivate well, compete well, and urging him to try to break more records.

When the Biluo Heavenly Emperor spoke of these things, there was a certain casualness about it, as if not valuing the Golden Immortal Ranking competition much, or perhaps it was that he believed Wang Xiaoqiang could claim the championship of this competition without any suspense, and precisely because there was no suspense, the sense of expectation greatly diminished?

Indeed, Wang Xiaoqiang was also determined to win the championship of this Golden Immortal Ranking competition and was fully confident.

Until the banquet was over, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor still didn't mention why he invited Wang Xiaoqiang, not only leaving Wang Xiaoqiang feeling uncertain, but also causing Fang Yuntian and the Green Dragon Guardian to feel quite puzzled,

Logically speaking, if there wasn't anything particularly important, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor wouldn't invite Wang Xiaoqiang, even if it was just his Incarnation appearing, it was virtually impossible, because prior to this, no one had ever been invited by the Biluo Heavenly Emperor, although the banquet was prepared by Fang Yuntian.

Amidst the confusion of the three, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor rode the Green Feather Bird and soared away. Then, the Green Dragon Guardian and Wang Xiaoqiang also took their leave.

After leaving the Fang Family Residence, the two parted ways, with Wang Xiaoqiang cupping his hands and saying, "Protector Lord, until we meet again."

"Until we meet again," the Green Dragon Guardian said sincerely, "Little Qiang, from now on, there's no need for us to be so formal with each other. That would make us too distant, don't you think?"

At this moment, the Green Dragon Guardian's attitude towards Wang Xiaoqiang had noticeably improved, completely treating him like his own brother, because if the Biluo Heavenly Emperor didn't have something special planned for Wang Xiaoqiang, it meant he highly valued him,

and those valued by the Biluo Heavenly Emperor are destined for great success in the future. Even though he's the protector of the Biluo Heavenly Emperor, he must maintain a good relationship with him.

After they bid farewell, Wang Xiaoqiang returned to the Biluo Heaven Restaurant, went back to his room, and then he suddenly remembered Xue Hongying. Thinking of Xue Hongying made him break out in a cold sweat, "Crap, having dinner with the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation at the City Lord's Residence while carrying a criminal hidden in the Storage Ring—if that was exposed, it would really be the end of me."

However, thinking about it, there was nothing he could do, from the plaza to Fang Yuntian's Mansion, the Green Dragon Guardian was by his side the whole time, leaving him no chance to release Xue Hongying.
