Everyone was looking at Ren Baqian enjoying the food . Ning Caichen picked up a spider in doubt and examined it closely . After hesitating for quite some time, he closed his eyes and placed the spider into his mouth, appearing as though he was eating a bitter gourd . After chewing it for two seconds, he opened his eyes and gave the distant Ren Baqian a thumbs-up . It indeed tasted not bad .
It was just that it looked disgusting .
When everyone else saw what Ning Caichen did, they thought to themselves, "Maybe the dishes indeed taste good, it's just that they look disgusting . "
One by one, the rest picked up the spiders and tasted them . Following which, they nodded their heads in approval .
Those pretty boys' face twitched . Eventually, they decided to go back and eat sauteed pig intestines after the banquet had ended .
As for the rest of the dishes, no one dared to taste them yet .
On her seat of honor, the empress looked at everyone beneath her . Then, she raised her up and said, "This is a toast to Dayao's eternal existence . "
"Dayao's eternal existence!" Everyone on the left side of the palace hall raised their cups and returned the empress's toast .
On the right side of the palace hall, everyone drank their alcohol silently .
The empress's next toast would be to thank everyone for bringing gifts from distant lands to Dayao . No matter what, she would still show everyone respect after receiving their gifts . After all, she had used the gifts that she received these few years to exchange for weapons from other nations .
"We wish the empress of Dayao longevity!" Everyone on the right side of the palace hall raised their cups and gave the empress a toast .
At this point of time, the empress had finished commencing the banquet . There was an announcer at the front of the palace hall announcing the gift list . After all, the gifts were brought to flaunt about .
"General-in-Chief Who Supports the Nation, Hong Wu, presents a Jade Embryo!" The first person was Hong Wu . Ren Baqian wondered what a Jade Embryo was . It sounded as though it was something high-end . Everyone else broke into a lively discussion .
When Seventh Prince heard "Jade Embryo", envy arose in his heart . One could only come across a Jade Embryo serendipitously . In his entire lifetime, he had only heard of it but had never seen it before . The imperial family of Great Xia spent so many years searching for it, and they could only find one . Seventh Prince wondered where Hong Wu found it . Not only did Hong Wu not hide it, he even gifted it to Qi Zixiao .
Seventh Prince had heard that Hong Wu and Qi Zixiao had an extremely good relationship . It seemed like it was true . After all, Hong Wu would definitely not gift the Jade Embryo to Qi Zixiao for the sake of currying favor with her . Given his status, he did not need to do so .
The Jade Embryo only had one use but the emperor of Great Xia would be willing to exchange for it with a city…
It could extend one's life by twenty years and preserve his or her facial appearance . The person who used it would only start ageing rapidly when he or she was dying .
Longevity was mankind's eternal goal .
Maintaining a youthful facial appearance was every woman's eternal goal .
These two points alone could make everyone in the world go crazy over the Jade Embryo .
Hong Wu took out a box from nowhere, took two steps forward and placed it before the empress . This thing was too precious, so he had to give it to the empress personally .
A warm feeling flowed through the empress's heart . She clearly knew that if it was someone else that gained the possession of the Jade Embryo, he or she would not hand it over this easily .
Without needing anyone to pass it to her, the empress reached out her hands and took it . Then, she opened the box and revealed a circular jade . Subsequently, she placed it on her palm . Under the light, she could see a human-shaped object within the jade
"Thank you very much, General . " The empress nodded her head and placed the jade back into the box . Then, she placed the box beside her hand .
This artifact was extremely precious to her . It wasn't the life extension of twenty years that moved her, but rather, its ability to provide her with eternal youth .
Hong Wu returned to his seat . Everyone else began to stand up and congratulate the empress, "Your Majesty, congratulations!"
Other than Hong Wu's extraordinary gift, the rest of the gifts were mainly Heaven-grade weapons, meteorite ores, precious treasures and etc . Even though all of them were considered priceless gifts, they still paled in comparison to Hong Wu's Jade Embryo .
"Honglu Deputy, Storyteller of Qingxin Palace, Ren Baqian…" the announcer stopped his announcement momentarily before continuing, " . . . presents a 'The Ultimate Mirror That Is Only Fit for Her Majesty' . "
An absolute silence descended upon the palace hall once again . This gift sounded as though it was comparable to Hong Wu's Jade Embryo .
However, just now, everyone was shocked because they did not expect Hong Wu could present such an extraordinary gift to the empress . On the contrary, at this point of time, everyone was thinking to themselves, "What the hell is this thing?"
Everyone shifted their gazes to Ren Baqian .
The empress, who was already in a good mood, was stunned after hearing those words from the announcer . Following which, her eyes curled up as she almost laughed out loud on the spot .
Next up, the announcer announced the gifts from the nobles of the three nations . Seventh Prince's gifts shocked many people as well . Seven dragon scales and one drop of dragon blood .
These gifts were considered extraordinary . Previously, the arrival of the Seventh Prince already surprised many people . Why would a prince of Great Xia want to celebrate the birthday of Dayao's empress? At that time, everyone reckoned that he must have other motives .
At this moment, Seventh Prince's gifts had validated everyone's conjecture .
Only the empress and Seven Prince knew that these seven dragon scales were real dragon scales and the drop of dragon blood was a drop of real dried-up dragon blood . The word "real" meant a lot .
After falling out with the empress that day, Seventh Prince had been thinking very hard about what made Ren Baqian so valuable that the empress would fall out with a prince from Great Xia for him . She did not care even after he corrected himself . After thinking about it for a few days, he decided to try his luck .
Even for the seventh most powerful expert in the world, this gift was considered very precious . Furthermore, it was from a powerful individual like the Seventh Prince .
The Seventh Prince betted that Qi Zixiao would give him what he wanted .
That bottle of blood was exceptionally important to him . It could save him tens of years of hard work .
Even if this private transaction came into light and the news of him giving such treasures to Dayao's empress was spread to Great Xia, he did not care at all .
When the empress heard about these gifts, she immediately knew the Seventh Prince's intention . Since the other party had shown his sincerity, she had decided to give him a bottle of kirin blood .
The next gift that the empress received was an interesting one, and it was from Ning Caichen . It was actually a painting that depicted one hundred beauties . It would be suitable gift if it was given to a male like an emperor . What's point of giving such a gift to the empress?
Most of the gifts were jewels, paintings and calligraphies . These kinds of gifts were rather boring .
Everyone was only interested in two gifts . One was Ren Baqian's "The Ultimate Mirror That Is Only Fit for Her Majesty" .
Another one was Ning Caichen's "One Hundred Beauties" .
Many people felt there was definitely something strange with "One Hundred Beauties" .
The empress seemed to know what everyone was thinking . She bluntly said, "Bring up 'One Hundred Beauties' and Ren Baqian's gift . I believe everyone wants to see how they look like . "
The gift that was brought up to the empress first was "One Hundred Beauties" . It was a scroll that was 1 . 2 meters long . After it was pulled open, it was 10 meters long . The women drawn on the painting were vivid and lifelike . Every one of them was indeed remarkably beautiful . The guests from the Yun Nation, the Chen Nation and Great Xia realized the women on the painting were all the most stunning beauties in today's world . Not only were their looks exceptional, but their martial arts, backgrounds, and etc . were as well .
The person who drew the women on the painting was also an extraordinary individual . To meet even one of the one hundred beauties would take a tremendous amount of effort and time .
There was one beauty on the painting that everyone was familiar with . Following which, all of them shifted their gazes to the Seventh Prince . That beauty was actually Xiu Wu, the girl who always by Seventh Prince's side .
If other people could recognize her, then Seventh Prince could definitely recognize her as well . He could not help but furrow his eyebrows, wondering who drew this painting .
