"Who is that woman?"

"How bold, daring to stand up to Prince Sai Lida under such circumstances? Is she trying to protect that Flame Dragon man?"

"I recognize the person next to her, that's Mr. Cha'erhan, the head of the Qi Sha Group in Y Country!"

"What? Someone from the Qi Sha Group!?"

"Oh my gods! Qi Sha! It's actually someone from the Qi Sha Group!"

Someone recognized Cha'erhan, which immediately sparked a series of gasps, and all the guests looked at Lu Shi and the others with eyes full of fear.

The ferocity of Qi Sha was known to any sizable power, especially in the Southern Federation where Qi Sha was most active!

Jiang Chen was also somewhat surprised as he looked at Lu Shi, unable to comprehend why she would stand up for him.

"Miss Lu Shi, you are not like him; he... he doesn't have the qualifications to enter without an invitation."

Sai Lida quickly pondered, unable to understand the relationship between Jiang Chen and Qi Sha, carefully choosing his words, he softly argued, flattering Lu Shi at the same time.

"Miss Lu Shi, we shouldn't involve ourselves in this!" Cha'erhan glanced at Jiang Chen and then turned to Lu Shi.

The high-level members of Qi Sha were neutral towards Jiang Chen. Without new orders, they were not supposed to intervene in Jiang Chen's affairs.

Hearing this, Lu Shi glanced at Cha'erhan and argued, "I'm not doing it for him, I was just saying I also don't have an invitation!"

The conversation between the two reached Sai Lida's ears, and he relaxed instantly, chuckling softly, "Miss Lu Shi, you are a guest among guests, no invitation needed!"

"Miss Lu Shi doesn't need an invitation, but the people I invite do, and without one, they'll be arrested, is that it?"

A voice carrying hidden anger echoed, and a middle-aged man entered from the side door with a beautiful lady and a charming young woman.

"Duke Pu Losi! Lady Sha Wa! Miss Ya Sha!"

"Is that Jiang Chen a guest invited by Duke Pu Losi?!"

"Is this... another confrontation between Duke Si Mo'er and Duke Pu Losi?"

"Shut up! Do you want to die?"

The guests were all surprised, watching the three newcomers, and those with lively minds voiced a speculation, only to be immediately silenced by their friends, and everyone's gaze towards Jiang Chen and Sai Lida turned strange.

Seeing the three of Pu Losi approaching, Sai Lida's eyes changed, a look of astonishment flashed across his face.

"Uncle Pu Losi, are they guests you invited?" Sai Lida asked unwillingly for verification.

"What, do I need to report to you when I invite guests?"

Pu Losi glared at Sai Lida, then turned to Jiang Chen with a slight bow, "My apologies, Mr. Jiang, I had an urgent matter and couldn't receive you, causing you to be disturbed. Please forgive me!"

Jiang Chen shook his head lightly, "It's fine."

"What are you still doing here? Take them outside!" Pu Losi turned toward the three elders encircling Jiang Chen and uttered in a low voice.

The three elders hurriedly nodded, leading a team of Royal Knights out of the reception hall, with two agile knights carrying the unconscious Bi Li alongside.

"Sai Lida, don't I have the right to invite friends to attend my mother's birthday celebration?" Pu Losi coldly eyed Sai Lida.

Sai Lida's face changed, he quickly said, "You certainly have that right."

"Then why are you still standing there? Apologize to my friend immediately!" Pu Losi commanded in a low voice.

Sai Lida hesitated for a moment, glanced at Pu Losi, his eyes showing an unwilling expression, then he sneaked a look at Jiang Chen's waist, his brows tightly knit, struggling inwardly!

"Pu Losi, my son is not your place to reprimand!" A deep voice sounded, and another figure stepped in from the side door.

"Duke Si Mo'er!"

"Duke Si Mo'er is here, this is going to be entertaining!"

"Is Duke Si Mo'er going to have a direct confrontation with Duke Pu Losi?"

"Shh! Don't talk recklessly!"

The guests whispered among themselves, watching Si Mo'er with anticipation.

In the entire Y Country, aside from the Empress, Duke Si Mo'er and Duke Pu Losi held the highest status, and the discord between these two dukes was well-known, as everyone donned a look eager to watch the show unfold.

Pu Losi turned to look at Si Mo'er, with an expression of anger in his eyes, "Si Mo'er, what do you mean?"

Jiang Chen glanced at Si Mo'er, a thought arose in his heart, a cold gleam flashed through his eyes, and a fierce killing intent seemed to silently emerge.

He had once suspected that Si Mo'er's hiring of assassins to attack him was an act, but now, he no longer thought that way!

Noticing the killing intent emanating from Jiang Chen, Pu Losi was startled and quickly stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Si Mo'er, looking at Jiang Chen with a pleading gaze.

He did not know why Jiang Chen suddenly exhaled such a strong killing intent, but it was the Empress's birthday celebration, and he could not allow Jiang Chen to act here.

Si Mo'er was also taken aback, he too sensed the flash of killing intent.

Glancing at Jiang Chen, Si Mo'er turned to look at Sai Lida, an expression full of subtle meaning, with a deep sorrow emerging from his eyes.

"Father!" Sai Lida bowed, saluting Si Mo'er.

Si Mo'er's expression immediately reverted to a cold demeanor, nodding at Sai Lida before turning to Pu Losi, "I mean, when it comes to my son, I will educate him myself, no need for you to meddle!"

"You..." Pu Losi fiercely glared at Si Mo'er.

Si Mo'er looked at Pu Losi with an indifferent expression, yet from deep within his eyes showed a hint of gratitude.

Pu Losi froze for a moment, knitting his brow, a suspicious look appeared in his eyes.

"Jiang Chen, even if you were invited by Pu Losi to attend my aunt's birthday celebration, you shouldn't have acted against the Royal Knights, this is a provocation against our Y Country Royal Family!"

Si Mo'er no longer stared at Pu Losi, turning his cold gaze to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen, with indifference, replied, "I will not surrender without a fight. Those who want me dead must themselves die!"

"Oh my gods! So..."

"Is this guy so bold? Daring to speak to Duke Si Mo'er like that!?"

"He's finished! Even Duke Pu Losi can't save him now!"

"Even Duke Pu Losi might be implicated. This is the Empress's birthday celebration, and he dares to openly declare his intention to kill a member of the Royal Family during her banquet?!"

The guests gasped one after another.

Marquis Mo Qie'er's eyes changed, he stepped forward, pointing at Jiang Chen's neck with an infuriated shout, "Boy, you're utterly audacious, daring to speak to Duke Si Mo'er like that, do you have a death wish? Get on your knees, kowtow, and apologize to Duke Si Mo'er immediately!"

"Yes, you are provoking Duke Si Mo'er, provoking the Y Country Royal Family, get on your knees and kowtow to apologize to the Duke and Prince Sai Lida!"

Dai Li followed closely behind her father, angrily scolding Jiang Chen.
