Chapter 782: Uninvited
A hundred years ago, the land of Xia country was filled with smoke and flames of war. The entire country was invaded by foreign races, causing the people to be plunged into misery and suffering. The few aristocratic families that originally lived on Xia country’s land also moved to the Seven Stars Continent to avoid the chaotic world.
A hundred years later, the wild Seven Stars Continent had long become a holy land in the hearts of countless people. It was said that the Seven Stars Continent was the pinnacle place in the world. It possessed the most advanced scientific and technological development, as well as many ancient martial arts, magical skills, and important books that had long been lost in Xia country.
The Seven Stars Continent had four of the strongest families. The Xing family was the family in charge of the largest military and military technology in the Seven Stars Continent. The Xing family had always been called a god and a legend!
It was said that he had already started studying abroad when he was 13 years old. At 16 years old, he started to take guns to the battlefield and turned the tide in several major battles. At 18 years old, he led the Xing family’s military industry and started to export to the world.
When he reached adulthood at the age of nineteen, Old Master Xing had long handed the position of the head of the family to him. Then, this man became a pinnacle in the Seven Stars Continent. When Feng Yuanzhou was not as good as Xia country’s disciples, the wealthy families in the Capital were all respectful to Xing Wudi and followed his lead.
Thinking of the rumors about the Seven Stars Continent and the Xing family, Feng Yuanzhou shuddered. He felt like he was on a roller coaster now. He was overjoyed one moment, then sad the next. He had a mental breakdown because of the loss of billions of congratulatory gifts. He also felt like he had gone to heaven because the head of the Seven Stars Continent’s Xing family had come personally. He stumbled back. Fortunately, Fu Anlan was beside him and supported him.
Feng Yuanzhou looked at Xing Wudi and his mouth was slightly open. He didn’t understand at all why the head of the Xing family from the Seven Stars Continent was here. Their Feng family and the forces of the Seven Stars Continent had never had any connection. His mind was blank, and he could only turn to look at Feng Jianing. Although he didn’t say anything, the gaze he used to look at Feng Jianing was filled with questions.
Feng Jianing was also dumbfounded when she saw Feng Yuanzhou and Fu Anlan looking at her. She was also extremely shocked by the sudden arrival of the head of the Xing family. Until now, she still hadn’t recovered from her shock. What virtue did she accumulate to actually obtain the blessing of the Xing family from the Seven Stars Continent in her lifetime?
At this moment, Feng Jianing was completely dumbfounded. She didn’t know how to deal with it at all. She had never thought of such a thing in her life. The man with silver eyes in front of her was actually the head of the Xing family, Xing Wudi. It was simply unbelievable.
Xing Wudi continued, “Since I’m here to send my blessings, there will naturally be gifts.”
Before he could finish his sentence, the people behind the man walked up with the congratulatory gifts and placed all the things on the table. Everyone looked very carefully. Every item was more than a few times more expensive than the congratulatory gifts given by the two heads of the Han family.
Seeing those priceless gifts, Feng Yuanzhou was so happy that he almost fainted. His legs trembled as he walked towards Xing Wudi. The smile on his old face piled up into wrinkles as he said, “Ha, haha, so it’s the head of the Xing family from the Seven Stars Continent who came from afar. It’s really a pleasure for our Feng family to have you come to the engagement banquet. It’s a sin that we didn’t welcome you far away. Please stay tonight and give our Feng family a chance to be a good host.”
Feng Yuanzhou’s face was filled with solicitousness. However, when he was still two meters away from Xing Wudi, he was stopped by the black-clothed bodyguard. He, a mere head of a wealthy family, was not qualified to approach Xing Wudi.
His cold and terrifying gaze looked at Feng Yuanzhou, who was about to come over. In Xing Wudi’s eyes, the other party was just a small ant, extraordinarily small. “Every one of these congratulatory gifts I sent far exceeds the sum of the Han family’s congratulatory gifts.”
Before he came, he had already gotten someone to investigate what the Han family was going to send, so he specially chose some things that were all more valuable than the Han family’s gift. After all, they were a force from the Seven Stars Continent, so they definitely couldn’t embarrass the Seven Stars Continent, right?
Upon hearing this, the corners of Han Jintian’s mouth twitched. Although those congratulatory gifts were sent by First Master Han and Second Master Han, the people from the Seven Stars Continent had obviously come prepared. They deliberately compared themselves to the Han family, making Han Jintian very unhappy.
Now, only Xing Wudi was left in Feng Yuanzhou’s eyes. In his eyes, Xing Wudi was a rich tree that could never be finished. He could get as much money as he wanted. If the Feng family grasped such a good opportunity that fell from the sky, they would definitely be able to become a top-notch wealthy family in the Capital.
Xing Wudi said, “Feng Qing broke the Han family’s gifts. In Mr. Feng’s eyes, it shouldn’t be worth mentioning now, right?”
