Wang Buping, I'm going to become a god!
"Keep the music playing, keep dancing!"
With Xuanyuan Wuer's shout, the entire Birthday Banquet seemed to come alive again.
Drums and music resounded, and cups were clinked in celebration.
Laughter once again resounded throughout the entire Xuanyuan Manor.
The previous unpleasantness seemed to have been completely washed away by this jubilation.
Or rather...
At least that's how Su Ye sees it.
He didn't care about the princess of the Fengying Country or the King hanging in the tree at all.
Eat and drink as you please.
If it's time to wish my grandfather a happy birthday, then I'll do it honestly.
It was as if the battle that had just shaken the Blue Star was nothing more than a gust of wind in his eyes.
But this scene, in Princess Elizabeth's eyes, became a different kind of torment.
She sat in the middle of the second row, her back ramrod straight, yet she always felt like she was surrounded by needles.
Each toast offered, each glance cast upon her, seemed to be secretly observing and speculating about her.
Her heart was pounding with anxiety, like she was carrying twenty-five little Rabbit inside her chest...
It's driving me crazy!!
What exactly does Su Ye intend to do with her Fengying Country?
Just now, he even casually hung that Veteran King Salman on a tree.
Even Russell was left to languish on another tree.
So... will he turn around and start punishing himself?
Could it be that they're just waiting for the Birthday Banquet to end so they can give the Fengying Country a good beating?
Could it be that because of today's events, people will take their anger out on the Fengying Country, causing the entire nation to suffer as a result?
The more Elizabeth thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
She secretly glanced up at the legendary Heavenly King Qi Ye...
But then they saw Su Ye standing beside Old Master Xuanyuan, holding a wine glass and smiling, looking every bit the dutiful grandson.
Where was there even a trace of murderous intent in his eyes and brows?
He was clearly just an ordinary young man chatting with his grandfather.
Princess Elizabeth was momentarily dazed.
She found it hard to reconcile the gentle, refined young man before her with the Ruthless Person man who had just casually crushed a Veteran King.
But ironically, these two images are of the same person.
This is probably what they call...
Speak gently to family, but be ruthless and decisive to enemies?
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
If the Fengying Country had had someone like Su Ye back then, how could it not have prospered?
Unfortunately, their Feng Ying only produced one Salman, who wasn't even worthy of carrying Su Ye's shoes.
Su Ye, on the other hand, was completely unaware of the princess's many thoughts.
Right now, he's busy celebrating his grandfather's birthday.
Grandpa, Xiao Ye, I wish you East Sea happiness and longevity.
Su Ye picked up a glass of wine and respectfully handed it to Old Master Xuanyuan.
"This toast is to you, may you live a long and healthy life, surrounded by your children and grandchildren, enjoying the bliss of family life."
Old Master Xuanyuan was so happy that the wrinkles on his face smoothed out.
He reached out and took the wine glass, then deliberately put on a stern face and scolded.
"You brat, all you know how to say are those sweet nothings."
"As long as you're safe and sound, that's more important than anything else."
Despite saying that, the smile in her eyes was impossible to hide.
His own grandson is now the Supreme Strongman among Human Race and has become the dignified Heavenly King Qi Ye.
Yet he still treated me with the same respect as the young man who first came to the Xuanyuan Family.
This filial piety and affection made Old Master Xuanyuan feel incredibly warm.
After glancing at the aloof and stunning Xiao Qiyue standing beside Su Ye, Old Master Xuanyuan's eyes flickered, and he suddenly smiled again.
His smile even had a hint of cunning.
"And... since you wish for this old man to be surrounded by children and grandchildren, when are you going to give me a few well-behaved grandchildren too?"
As he spoke, he smiled and looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman in front of him.
So pleasing to the eye, truly pleasing to the eye!
If these two children have kids in the future, they'll definitely be outstanding too.
Upon hearing these words from Old Master Xuanyuan, Xiao Qiyue blushed with embarrassment.
Su Ye, however, held Xiao Qiyue's hand and laughed heartily.
"Don't worry, definitely!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, the surrounding guests also gathered around.
"Grandpa is so lucky to have a grandson like Su Ye. Who on this Blue Star wouldn't envy him?"
"Who can argue with that? Heavenly King Qi Ye, renowned throughout the world, is still so filial to his grandfather; it's truly rare."
"Grandpa, you've really struck gold!"
"I'm just waiting to hold my great-grandchild in my arms. Oh my, that would be amazing!"
The Old Master Xuanyuan was beaming with delight at the room full of compliments; he was incredibly pleased with himself.
But he remained modest in his words.
"Oh, not at all, it's all thanks to the child's own hard work."
"I, this old man, merely benefited from it."
He spoke politely, but his back unconsciously straightened even more.
Look, Su Ye, the Heavenly King Qi Ye, my precious grandson!
Half of the blood of the Xuanyuan Family flows in my veins!
Su Ye found it amusing but didn't point it out.
As long as Grandpa is happy, everything is fine.
They dressed up in colorful clothes to entertain their parents.
And...
To the outside world, he is the ruthless and decisive Heavenly King Qi Ye.
But in front of one's own elders, why bother with being cold and decisive?
Of course, being happy is the best.
After wishing Old Master Xuanyuan a happy birthday and chatting with a few close guests, Su Ye turned around and went to find an old friend to catch up.
The first person they encountered was Wang Buping of the Xuanyuan Group.
"Brother Su, I've heard a lot about you these past two years on Blue Star. I'm truly impressed. This news is even more shocking—Brother Su, you actually defeated that Demon Race Progenitor!"
"The best thing I ever did in my life, Wang Buping, was to meet you."
Back in the day, some of his men actually tried to steal Su Ye's things.
They're really courting death.
However, because of this incident, he and Su Ye became acquainted despite their initial conflict. From then on, he latched onto Su Ye's coattails, became the CEO, and reached the pinnacle of life without a rich and beautiful woman by his side.
Upon hearing this, Su Ye laughed and patted Wang Buping on the shoulder.
"Old Wang, you're being too polite. We've owe you a lot for managing the Xuanyuan Group all these years. I've heard it's doing increasingly well, and that's all thanks to you!"
Hearing this, Wang Buping's face flushed with excitement.
He never expected that Su Ye would actually praise him for managing the Xuanyuan Group so well!
He could treasure this compliment from Su Ye and pass it down through generations!
Wang Buping felt as if all the bones in his body had become two ounces lighter.
Light and airy.
However, that's not all.
Su Ye thought for a moment, then wiped his hand on the Storage Bracelet, and a small box appeared in his hand.
"Old Wang, managing the business is important, but your Cultivation Level can't fall behind. It's been two years, and you're only at the Fifth Heaven of Chaofan. That won't do. Take this and improve your Cultivation Level as soon as possible."
Wang Buping felt a little ashamed as he took the box.
He has indeed become quite lax in his cultivation over the past two years.
Sigh, I've embarrassed Su Ye.
How could he possibly say that he and Su Ye both attended Modu University, and that he was Su Ye's senior?
Su Ye must have been disappointed too.
Wang Buping opened the box with a disappointed expression, and then...
"Bump!"
I closed it immediately, but my eyes were wide open.
What did he see?
This box is filled with all sorts of precious Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, but the most crucial thing is...
Inside, there's even a Divine Core inside!!!
One is enough to create the Divine Core of a King!!!
