C1894 Princess Invitation
Shikong's face was full of worry as he said, "Didn't I say that I would help you do something when you enter the Unlimited Sect and become a disciple?"
Xu Fann nodded. Xu Fann had a very deep impression of this matter. Shikong had been waiting for him in the mortal realm for a hundred years. If he said that he had no intentions, Xu Fann would not believe him.
"Simply put, I need you to concoct pills and give it to someone."
"Who is it?"
"Princess Fan."
He reported a name and said: "After the pellet is completed, hand the pill over to me. At that time, you might have some fortuitous encounters."
Xu Fann nodded, this wasn't difficult at all.
As for his lucky chance, he reckoned it was related to the sects of the Kunlun Plane.
He was only one step away from pill forging, and his method was different from the others. Thus, he decided to give it a try.
A few more days passed.
On the day that the pellet was formed, Shikong received the pill from Xu Fann and sent it over to that person.
A few days later, Princess Fan sent someone to the Boundless Sect.
He had actually come to invite Xu Bai to attend the banquet at the Up River City where Princess Fan was.
"The pill that young master refined is indeed extraordinary, my princess has already sent the pill back to the nation. In order to express my young master's gratitude, my princess has specially held a banquet for my young master to show her gratitude.
Xu Fann nodded and took the invitation. "Say hello to your princess on my behalf. I'll be there on time tomorrow."
If it was a normal princess coming to invite him, Xu Fann would not have agreed when he first arrived at this location. However, this Princess Fan was different.
The Immeasurable Sect's plane of existence was not something that Earth could compare with, not to mention, it was the place where a princess resided.
What's more, Xu Fann had also heard from Shikong that Shikong was the opposite party within these few days.
Although this Jin Ran was a woman, she had an extraordinary bearing and an outspoken character. She was someone who could befriend others, even if she was only a princess of a mortal country. However, she was able to do so many things for the country based on her own judgement and ability.
Now that he was here for the first time, he urgently needed power and connections. Being able to teach a mortal force like the Great Luo Empire would definitely bring him a lot of help to rebuild his strength.
Furthermore, Xu Fann would have a lot of material requirements for his later stages of cultivation, which could be achieved through common powers.
After a silent night, Xu Fann cultivated for a while the next day before he got up to go to Princess Jin Ran's banquet.
Princess Dfan's residence was located in the center of the Up River City.
This place was near the mountain and was close to the water. The scenery was beautiful, the path wide and the location perfect. It was precisely the most luxurious place within the Up River City.
Being able to own a mansion in this kind of place was a symbol of greatness within the Up River City.
As a princess of the Great Luo Empire, she had money and influence. It was normal for her to have an apartment here.
Xu Fann got off the carriage and casually scanned the area.
The Great Princess Fan could be said to be one of the most respected figures in the entire Up River City. Naturally, the people invited to the banquet she hosted were all the nobles in the city.
Many people wished nothing more than for such an invitation.
At the entrance of the residence, some people had proud expressions on their faces as soon as they got off the carriage. However, when they saw others, they immediately restrained themselves and began to chat with others.
The world of mortals was like this. It was either competing with each other or competing with each other.
Xu Fann didn't have the time to waste on these people. The moment he got out of the car, he directly walked towards the apartment. But he didn't want to get entangled, and someone just had to get entangled.
"Oh, isn't this Pill Master Xu?" A swindler from who knows where. Just like you? You have the guts to be invited to the princess' dinner party?
"I think it's better if you don't embarrass yourself. Just go back as soon as possible." A sharp, harsh and proud voice sounded from the side.
This person was Helian Bo, the son of the vice president of Great River City's Alchemy Association, Helian Yuan.
Becoming a level one alchemist before the age of twenty is one of the most famous talents in Up River City. However, a few days ago, when Xu Fann's pill appeared in the Great River City, all of his brilliance was concealed.
This made Helian Bo extremely dissatisfied. If not for the fact that the princess had invited him over personally, he would have already beaten Xu Fann up.
On the way here, Princess Dazhuang's servant told him about the situation in the Great River City.
This Helian Bo was such a despicable person. Xu Fann didn't even bother to remember this person's name, much less speak to someone like this.
At this moment, he only shot a glance at the other party before continuing on his way to the residence.
It was just a passing glance, but in Helian Bo's eyes, it was more painful than a punch. When he was about to say something, Xu Fann had already walked far away.
This guy gritted his teeth as he looked at Xu Fann's back, and said in a low voice: "Just you wait, tonight I will definitely make you suffer a huge loss, I will make you lose your place in this Up River City."
As soon as they entered the banquet hall, Xu Fann's shabby civilian attire was out of place with the rest of the people in the hall. Everyone quickly noticed him and a look of doubt flashed across many people's eyes.
He didn't expect that at this moment, Princess Jin Ran would personally go forward to greet him.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but look at Xu Fann again.
Although this was Xu Fann's first time in Great River City, after Xu Fann's pill appeared in Great River City, in the Up River City, he was more or less a celebrity. He was merely a celebrity without a person to his name, and in the eyes of some people, it was even a joke.
Why would Princess Fan attach such importance to such a person? Could he have been deceived?
Or could it be that Princess Da Fan has set her eyes on this kid?
Although this brat's appearance was quite pleasing to the eye, it was said that he was only an honorary disciple of the Immeasurable Sect. With his trashy status, he shouldn't be able to match up to Princess Danyang!
No matter how hard they tried to guess, they couldn't come up with a conclusion.
They all looked towards the others with a puzzled expression, but everyone else had the same look on their faces.
The banquet quickly started. This time around, there were about a hundred people who were participating in the banquet, and all of them were distinguished gentlemen of the Up River City, including the young noble, the wife of the mayor, the wife or the young miss of the city's hero, as well as other important figures in groups like the Alchemy Association, the merchant guild, the mercenary association and so on.
Amongst these people, an identity like Helian Bo, the vice president and son of the Alchemy Association was not very prominent. He could only be considered one of the slightly higher status groups.
The moment Helian Bo entered the hall, he saw Princess Fan and Xu Fann sitting very close to each other. Furthermore, they seemed to be paying very close attention to each other as the flames of jealousy in Helian Bo's heart soared to the sky, as if they were going to burn him to death, causing him to be unable to calm down for even a moment.
A person like Princess Danyang, who was talented, good-looking, and especially amiable, in Helian Bo's opinion, only people with status like him could have the right to befriend her.
The banquet would not be long before it began. Princess Jin Ran raised her wine cup and greeted everyone with a smile, "Everyone, thank you for attending this small banquet. Let me toast everyone."
She raised her glass gracefully and took a slow sip, while the others in the hall laughed and drank with her.
Obviously, Jin Ran did not call herself a princess.
They waited for everyone to drink the wine. Princess Dfan turned her head to look at Xu Fann, who was sitting not far from her. She smiled as she walked towards Xu Fann. She raised her wine cup and said, "This little girl's second goblet of wine is to honor Young Master Xu. "Thank you, Young Master Xu, for the pill that you refined for me earlier."
As she spoke, she raised her glass to her mouth. However, a voice interrupted him. "Wait!"
This voice came from Helian Bo.1
In someone else's territory, it was not polite to interrupt like this when the host was raising his glass and toasting. However, Helian Bo couldn't help but feel that Xu Fann was in the limelight.
Princess Danyang slightly frowned and looked towards Helian Bo. She said angrily, "What advice do you have for me, Young Master Helian?"
"Sorry to interrupt Your Highness's mood, but how can someone as noble and elegant as the princess drink with such a swindler? Wouldn't this ruin the princess' image and identity? " Helian Bo had a righteous and strict attitude.
The moment he said those words, the Up River City locals in the hall all revealed a thoughtful expression. Many of them turned to look at Xu Fann, and the corners of their mouths slightly raised in ridicule.
It was unknown if he was mocking him for overestimating his capabilities in the past, or if he was overestimating his current abilities.
