《Supreme Grandpa 》Chapter 209: Banquet
Advertisement
After sending Yang Mei'er back, Huang Zhen returned to Fortune Way City.
Finding that Yang Song had actually gone to his headquarter base, he came here immediately.
"Haha, I didn't expect Senior to keep his promises very well."
'This guy.'
Yang Song frowned.
Huang Zhen hadn't appeared yet but his loud voice came first.
His appearance also interrupted Yang Song's "deception" strategy for Old Four.
Stretching and yawning, Huang Zhen appeared next to Old Four.
"Old Four, what's the matter with you? Why do you receive Senior Blue Bolt here? And you guys, are you too free so that watch the show in secret? Don't you know how to prepare something for the entertainment?!"
As Huang Zhen said, he said to Old Four, " Old Four, what you did is too inappropriate. I will punish you to prepare a table well and make up for it."
Old Four was surprised when he heard how Huang Zhen called Yang Song, but when he heard the meaning of Huang Zhen's words, his eyebrows, eyes, and beards were all raised up, and he secretly complained, "Leader, if you want to eat my dish, just say it, don't talk like a vulgar person."
Huang Zhen solemnly said, "You… you, this seat was just saying honest words, why are you so imaginary?"
...
After Huang Zhen returned, Yang Song's many thoughts and actions had to be terminated and he obeyed his relevant arrangements.
Under the arrangement of Huang Zhen, a high-standard banquet opened soon.
Not many people participated in the banquet, only ten.
It was the nine S-rank experts in the headquarter of Infinite Bounty Organization and Yang Song.
After the Psychic Era descended, the formal banquets of powerful people of C Country referenced ancient rituals.
After all, power was respected nowadays, and there was no saying that everyone was equal in the Psychic Era.

So in the ancient banquet, they paid attention to such a ranking.
As the host, Huang Zhen was naturally in the main seat. Although Yang Song was a guest, his status and strength were placed there, so he was almost on par with Huang Zhen.
As for the others, they were all the veterans of Infinite Bounty Organization, they knew each other well, and there was no difference in status, so they all sat casually.
Among the few people present, in addition to Old Four, there were Old Two, Old Three, Old Five, and Old Six, and the other four were some old people who entered the Infinite Bounty Organization later.
It was worth mentioning that the "corporate culture" of the Infinite Bounty Organization was very relaxed. When facing the boss, Huang Zhen, these veterans acted very casually.
There was no subordinate relationship between them, just what they should be.
This situation was not so good...
After observing in secret, Yang Song had a headache.
He came here with the intention of poaching three people, but they were so united, the difficulty for him to poach people had increased a lot.
However, the matter of digging people would be discussed later, he had not even built the four secret rooms.
Yang Song quickly focused on the food and drink at the banquet.
These were all made by Old Four!
But all the S-rank figures in the room were talking and laughing with each other, and there was no sign of moving. At this moment, Yang Song couldn't suddenly start eating. That would be too abrupt.
Huang Zhen secretly looked at Yang Song, smiled slightly, and quickly said to several veterans of his family:
"You guys, stop your nonsense. These dishes were all made by Old Four, let's start now."
Everyone laughed, and they all started to move.

Huang Zhen said to Yang Song, "Senior, please."
It had finally started!
He toasted with a light smile and replied, "Please."
The dishes made by these four leaders were really extraordinary. Yang Song ate every dish with great satisfaction. Every single dish contained psychic energy and if low-level warriors ate it, they would advance in no time!
This also strengthened Yang Song's determination to poach him away!
The banquet was not just about eating, but also socializing.
The crowd chatted for about two hours.
During this period, Old Four paid attention to Yang Song the most.
He had always been very concerned about the secret technique that Yang Song said which could improve his cooking skills, but due to the current timing, it was difficult to ask questions.
Yang Song was very satisfied with his performance.
The more curious Old Four was, the easier it would be to implement his plan.
…
Seeing that the banquet was about to end, Yang Song said, "Skyless Lord, you haven't forgotten the agreement between us, have you?"
His question immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The agreement that Yang Song had said was mentioned before, and everyone was very curious at that time.
"Leader, what is the agreement between you and Blue Bolt Sovereign? I am really curious," Old Two asked first.
Huang Zhen did not hide it, and said straight, "There is an agreement between this seat and Senior Blue Bolt, that is, he will help us build four special places in the headquarter, and he needs three of you guys to do manual work under him for a year."
"What manual work?!" Yang Song said speechlessly, "Isn't it too awkward to use this term, this seat is the borrower here."
Huang Zhen smiled and said, "Yes, borrower."
Yang Song was very annoyed by Huang Zhen's remarks that it was likely to affect his plan of digging people away.
The little good feelings he had toward Huang Zhen had disappeared a lot.
Yang Song thought for a while, and said to everyone, "I'm ashamed to say this, the Seven Directions Contest will soon begin, but my place is short of manpower."
"Presumably, the last time this seat submitted the urgent information to the Arcane Administration Association, the contents of information on the abyssal demon's secret are known to everyone here."
"Judging from it, the abyssal demons would actually covet the geniuses of my human race. The government has the strategy of assigning talents to be protected by creating the Seven Directions Contest, but I lack strong people in my domain. With this seat alone, I'm afraid it would be difficult to protect them well, so this is why I came to borrow people from Skyless Lord."
"So, it's definitely not what Skyless Lord said about working for a year, but when it gets bigger, this is to protect the future of the human race!"
Everyone was relieved upon hearing this.
Huang Zhen said, "I wonder if Senior is interested in some people at the moment? But well, we have agreed. Everything depends on Senior's own abilities. If Senior can impress them, then Senior can take them away. But if not, Junior can do nothing either."
Yang Song said, "Naturally."
Huang Zhen smiled slightly, and then said brightly to everyone, "The situation is like this. You will follow Blue Bolt Sovereign and help him for a year, it will be regarded as a formal outing mission for you too. Don't have any bad thoughts and psychological burdens."
When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, and they started talking to each other.

Necromancer's Resolve
Foster Locke's life wasn't the harshest it could have been. But it wasn't the easiest either. Despite losing the last of his family and having immense debt thrown on him, getting the chance to keep practicing Martial Arts pulled away, and having a completely messed up sleep-schedule, he usually tried his best to stay positive to the outside world. Of course, that wasn't always possible, especially not when he was staring into the glowing eyes of a man-eating creature he had never heard of before. The glowing message-box that accompanied it wasn't much better either. Not to mention the fact that he was suddenly in a dark forest instead of the train station. This isn't a story of great anguish, inescapable peril, or heroic world-saving. Rather, it's one of a young man trying to get by in a world that seems to try his best to kill him. I hope you enjoy the read. --- Cover Image temporary [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Amateur fighter Kestril only remembers two things about her mother's disappearance: a locket and the promise she made to keep her brother safe. That promise is all she thinks of when she jumps in front of a car to save her brother. She expects death, but instead wakes up to a looming clock tower, cobblestone streets, and dead soldiers wearing lockets just like her mother's. Kess's locket marks her as one of the Errant- people with control over dimensions and time, and the same people rumored to have captured her brother across the city. When a military group mistakes Kess for their enemy, she swears allegiance at gunpoint, hoping to search for her brother from within. Inside, Kess finds an even darker side of the city bent on killing the Errant-using any means necessary. When the murder of an important Errant soldier throws the city further into civil war, Kess uncovers a plot that could undo everything she's fought for so far. The only problem?
