6 Robbery and shocking Talen (1/1)

Banquet Hall

As the various clan heads and nobles were chatting amongst themselves the side doors open as they hear Manager Fu say loudly ”His Majesty The King Her Majesties Queen Feng Queen Ling Queen Su His Highness Prince Wen His Highness Prince Lian Her Highness Princess Chen His Highness Prince Wu His Highness Prince Tian Have arrived” And with that lead by my father followed by my mother and Aunts walking side by side then us we walk in as we here the people kneel and say together ” Long Live The Imperial Duan Family”

With that we all sit down as my father with a slight smile says” you may rise and sit”as they get up and sit back down I can't help but nod my head and relish in this feeling of superiority. I look around the room and notice that most of the people eyes are on me although a little stunned and nervous my eyes remain calm. I turn my head to my fourth brother whispering as i ask ”why is everyone looking at me.”

He looks at me with a playful smile as he says” it's because they're waiting to see your beauty that they've heard so much about. Aswell as your Elemental affinity little tian” as he says this my father interrupts and calls for Manager Fu saying” Manager Fu bring in the elemental stone.” He then proceeds to look at me and says ”Tian go ahead take off your mask and let everyone take a good look at you”

I lazily get out of my chair as I brush my loose untied hair back and untie my mask. I continue to tell myself 'relax be calm show no expression' as I slowly take it off I lift my head in a arrogant yet not cocky way. As the mask is fully off 2 loose strands of hair fall over my shoulder. This 'natural' action further captivated the people of the banquet. With my calm demeanor godly child looks made me seem holy but once they saw the purple lotus surrounded by a dragon mark it turned somewhat devilish stimulating them further.

Then as I look around the room at their stunned expressions when an idea comes to mind. I smile slightly making everyone draw in a breath of fresh air. Then I cough gently to get the people's attention and say” now that everyone has seen this prince's handsomeness I suppose it's time for you all to offer gifts” this causes everyone to draw a blank as they think 'presents what presents' while my family has a bitter smile as they all think 'he's about to scam them'

I look at the crowd with confused look and slight pout that causes the women to blush and stare in a daze. I then say ” what no presents? how could you not bring presents? this is a banquet for this prince's 6th birthday you even had the chance to see this prince's beauty and you don't bring presents are you trying to rebel against my Duan family?”

This line causes everyone to draw in cold air once again as they start feeling fear and cold sweat forms on their back and foreheads. They all think 'what the hell is this wasn't this a normal birthday banquet when did it turn into a rebellion.' General Mo was the first to react as he kneels and says through gritted teeth” Your Highness... this lowly one doesn't dare this lowly one merely forgot to give your highness this high grade sky metal ore.” As he said this he pulled out a beautiful round piece of metal the size of persons head. Which surprised a lot of people and they immediately began to think of what to give out of their spacial rings as well.

Metals, Pills and Weapons are ranked in categories of Mortal,Earth,Sky,Heaven and Immortal which is further broken down in Low,Mid,High and perfect. Mortal ranked goods can be bought with copper silver and mostly gold.Earth goods and above have to be bought with Qi stones. Qi stones are ranked as low,mid,high,royal and spirit.10 copper is one silver, 100 Silver is one gold, 1,000 gold is one low grade qi stone 10,000 low grade is worth one mid grade, 100,000 mid grade is one high grade, 1,000,000 high grade is one royal and as for spirit it doesn't have a set price as when every time one appears it would spark a war between continents factions even families would kill each other for it. As for the reason it's simple spirit stones are qi stones that gains a life of its own as well as a skill. If one is able to grab it at it's young stage they can have it produce endless qi for it at the cost of rare herbs to keep it alive until it can survive on its own with the qi in the air.

So for the general to bring out this metal ore must have cost a couple tens of thousands of low grade qi stones if not more. And in this 'small' Kingdom that amount can cause these clan heads to have a headache for sometime.

Now back to Tian.

As he gazed at the ore he kept a calm face and nodded slightly as he said ”good good General Mo has produced a pretty 'decent' gift this Prince shall accept it. Gaurds! grab this ore for this Prince and bring a basket as well.” When he said this the guards immediately got to work while General Mo thought 'decent' but he was brought out of his thoughts as the voice of General Xu was heard saying ” Your Highness this lowly one also doesn't dare and apologizes for the ignorance. This lowly one offers this valve of a king class fire Python blood.” As he spoke one could hear the heartache in his voice. Gaining sympathy from the other nobles. As this happened the guards returned with a large basket.

Duan Ling: ”Mm this is also a pretty good gift for this Prince. This Prince can see that you all did indeed become stunned at this prince's handsomeness. So this Prince shall be magnanimous and not take gifts from everyone and allow only the leaders of each family and organization to present them. So with that said you may all rise and sit as for those leaders I ask you to step to my left with your gifts in hand. 'cough' one moment” I stop as I pick up the cup of water near me and take a sip before continuing with a calm face ” Now you two with the baskets when the various leaders are ready to give up 'cough' give the gifts you shall go and acquire them.” And with that he sat down he sat down with a small smile and began ordering the maid near him to begin bringing in more drinks and to tell the kitchen to speed up the food preparation.

While he did this his parents and siblings looked on with eyes wide. Thinking to themselves that this brat was to shameless he actually wants to make this sound like people giving gifts when this is clearly a robbery.

As for the various leaders they had red faces as they felt their hearts bleeding. They secretly cursed this Prince for his words thinking' this damn narcissistic prince actually said he shall be magnanimous after saying we'll rebelling fuck he even wanted everyone here to present gifts and this way of doing things isn't to much like the way bandits rob people' however they composed themselves and followed along with bleeding hearts.

After 10 minutes the gift receiving was done as Manager Fu who had returned at some point with an orb of different colors stood by Duan Lin as Duan Lin spoke” cough you'll have to excuse little tian he still doesn't know any better now little tian come over and get your affinity tested.” After he spoke I got up and walked towards him as I remember that my eldest brother has an affinity for red flames my second brother has earth affinity and like my mother my sister has yin ice,wind,and water while my fourth brother has wind affinity. I know my father has yang fire earth and wind. As for me I know I'll definitely have lightning, fire and space. As I reach I see the different sections and colors some elements have one like water and wind others have two or more with there also being special elements like space,time, yang, and yin. I reach out and touch it but before I do I can't help but since danger for some reason. I pause and look around with a frown my father mother and aunts notice and ask what's wrong but I ignore them and ask the system to scan the area as well as Xiao fang.

Ding: Host system detects several strong energy signatures 4 of which are emperor level and one being low true emperor stage

Xiao Fang'Core ring':Theirs 20 of them and from what I can tell even though the guy is a true emperor even the two medical nin who are only low emperor stage can fight him although they will lose.

With that my expression relaxes as I look at my father and say ”nothing just some rats” with that I put my hand on the orb as it lights up in the fire section the black light comes on in which everyone becomes shocked while drawing in a deep breath but before that can even finish in the lightning section the black light also comes on which causes the various to stand up in shock as they try to regulate their breathing. As that happens the space section lights up followed by the time section which causes my mother and Aunts to let out a cry of shock and my father to laughs crazily. Following by my Grandparents entrance as they came to see what was wrong with my father because of his laughter but before they could speak they were shocked when they saw the orb. As I take my hand off the orb everyone is knocked out of their daze by an even more crazed laughter and oppression of multiple people.
