In the main hall, Xihe received Master Taixuan and Wang Cong ceremoniously. Although it was a simple banquet, it was just a humble and polite remark. Maybe he was a little skeptical about the cultivation of Wang Cong and the others, but Xihe was not a fool. Anyone who could come from the outer world was worthy of attention no matter what.
Besides, it’s just a banquet, how much can it cost
The banquet was a typical palace banquet, with the king (the master of the palace) sitting high up, and the others sitting on both sides of the hall. As guests, Taixuan Shangren and Wang Cong were arranged to sit on the right hand side of Xihe. Here, the right is respected, which is also a more solemn arrangement.
However, facing the dazzling array of exquisite food at the banquet, Master Taixuan and Wang Cong could only taste a little - eating too much would cause internal heat, as all the ingredients were extremely yang and strong. However, the wine here was strong enough, with masculine energy mixed in the wine, and even Master Taixuan felt that the heat was about to burst out of his head after taking two sips.
Everyone started by telling each other some funny stories and jokes, and the atmosphere gradually became familiar. After the food and drinks were served, the atmosphere of the banquet was aroused, and Xihe spoke again: "Taixuanzi, you have come from a distance of billions of miles to Lihuotian. I can imagine the consumption and risks involved. Do you really have no other purpose?"
Master Taixuan smiled slightly: "Palace Master is wise, we have another purpose, which is the most fundamental issue in the cultivation world - cultivation! Different worlds have different knowledge and different resources, etc., which are crucial to cultivation."
Xihe nodded, this was the only explanation. But he still had a question, "From the video you played earlier, it has been shown that your Shang country is strong and wealthy enough, and the knowledge of cultivation seems to be enough. Is it really worth taking such a risk for some uncertain knowledge of another world?"
This time, it was Wang Cong who took over the conversation: "What the Palace Master saw was only one aspect. In fact, there are two reasons why we came out to explore. On the one hand, we were forced to do so, and on the other hand, we came out voluntarily to respond to the belief of the wise king."
"Oh? How do you explain it?"
Wang Cong continued, "Let's talk about the call of the wise king first. Before the establishment of the Shang Kingdom, we lived in a poor and scarce environment, with our lives in danger. At that time, a person in the Nascent Soul stage was enough to dominate the world, and those in the Spiritualization stage were rampant. Wars, poverty, etc., made the vast majority of people live in danger. It was the appearance of the wise king that made us what we are today. Because of the wise king, we know that the country can develop in this way, life can be so happy, practice can be done this way, and the world is like this. Now, in just forty years, our lives have undergone earth-shaking changes. And all this is because of the instructions of the wise king. Now, the wise king says that we want to explore the outside world, so we are here."
Xihe's eyes gradually brightened after hearing this. As a ruler, Xihe became interested in this "wise king": "You respect your wise king very much? Can you tell me about your wise king?"
"I think using film and television materials to introduce it is the most intuitive."
Wang Cong took out a computer from the storage ring, and soon a projection appeared in the center of the hall. This time the documentary was very long, starting from the time when the people of the Great Xia Kingdom were living in dire straits, suffering from drought and poverty, and it fully displayed the changes of Li Xian and the Shang Kingdom bit by bit.
