In the past two days, Liu Jinan can be said to be the most prominent person in the Trial City.

Because the team he led broke the records left by Chi Yuan time and time again, people all over the city were able to watch the flashing image of the stone tablet for free many times.

Many residents who have lived in the city since childhood said that they had never seen the stone tablet flash so frequently in their lives.

It's like dancing and I can't stop.

Liu Jinan's name spread throughout the city overnight, and he became the most famous person for a while.

People are always tolerant of the strong, so even if Liu Jinan kissed a man in public, exposing his sexual orientation.

People will only say that he is genuine, not hypocritical or pretentious.

In order to attend tonight's banquet, Liu Jinan specially changed into the suit that he had kept in the purple gold gourd.

This suit is well-tailored. Although it is not haute couture, it fits Liu Jinan's figure very well.

He bought it when he was stockpiling supplies before the end of the world, and it cost him more than ten thousand yuan.

At first he had no intention of buying such a flashy thing, until Zhang Yaoyao reminded him that he might attend some high-end banquets in the future, and then he decided to buy it.

Because he thought that he would definitely go to Kyoto to find Duan Haiping in the future.

With Duan Haiping's status, there must be a lot of social engagements and banquets.

It might be inconvenient to do it when the time comes, so it is better to prepare it first in case of emergency.

I didn't expect to use it today.

"Captain Liu, welcome, welcome. With your arrival, my Zhao family's banquet hall immediately becomes splendid and magnificent." Zhao Zhengxing raised a wine glass, walked quickly to Liu Jinan, and started to compliment him.

Liu Jinan maintained a proper smile: "How can I not come when Patriarch Zhao has invited me? This small gift is not a token of respect, but I wish Patriarch Zhao good fortune and a long life."

May you be blessed as vast as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains.

Zhao Zhengxing almost couldn't keep his smile down. He was only forty-five years old this year, but being wished so well made him seem even older.

As for the reason why he announced his 40th birthday even though he was obviously 45 years old, it was just a gimmick for the banquet, as Liu Jinan expected.

He took the birthday gift from Liu Jinan and handed it to the housekeeper without opening the gift box to check.

Then he smiled and thanked Liu Jinan: "Thank you, Captain Liu. Please take a seat. The banquet will begin soon."

Liu Jinan nodded slightly, then took Duan Haiping's arm and walked into the banquet hall.

He didn't care about the gazes coming from all directions and only focused on tonight's dishes.

Duan Haiping is an expert in this area, and he introduced to Liu Jinan attentively: "The Zhao family's birthday banquet this time is divided into two floors. The first floor is the activity area, and there will be singing and dancing performances later. There are exquisite meals and drinks available below the stage. The second floor is the elegant seats, which are only reserved for people of status. If you need anything, tell the Zhao family's servants, and they will bring it up for you."

Liu Jinan exclaimed in amazement: "How extravagant! Rich people's banquets really just waste money."

There were many delicacies in the dishes alone that he had never seen before. The palm-sized abalone and shark fin were just the lowest quality ones.

His spiritual sense could even sense that many dishes contained a strong element of chrysogeny. It seemed that they were taken from mutant creatures and cooked using secret methods, thus retaining the chrysogeny element.

Oh, it would be more appropriate to call it aura here.

As for the drinks, he couldn't understand them at all. He just thought they were crystal clear and very beautiful.

"I want to try the wine here." Liu Jinan was very curious.

Duan Haiping thought for a moment and only remembered that when they were in the Shaanxi Province Safety Zone, Liu Jinan drank a little wine and became extremely drunk.

"It's better to be safe than sorry. No one knows if there's anything bad in this wine." Duan Haiping reminded him, "If you like it, we can go to the market to buy it some other day. Don't eat what the Zhao family prepared at the banquet."

Liu Jinan understood this logic, he was just asking casually.

When he went up to the second floor, he saw an acquaintance: "Master Chi Yuan, you are here too."

Chi Yuan's eyes stayed on Liu Jinan's hand holding Duan Haiping's arm, and then he smiled politely: "Good evening, Captain Liu, would you like to have a drink together?"

Liu Jinan shook his head regretfully: "I can't drink much, I'm afraid I'll get drunk and act crazy."

Chi Yuan did not force it, but raised his glass and drank the liquid in it: "Then I wish you have a good time."

"Let's have fun together." Liu Jinan said, and walked past the other person to his seat.

He said to Duan Haiping with some doubt: "My spiritual sense ability just reminded me that Chi Yuan's mood seems to be fluctuating. He seems to be planning something secretly."

Duan Haiping thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps Chi Yuan has reached some kind of deal with Zhao Zhengxing."

"It doesn't matter. Before I came here, I told Lao Hu and the others that if I didn't come back before eight o'clock, they would rush in and take us out immediately." Since Liu Jinan dared to come to the banquet, he was of course fully prepared. "I also brought a walkie-talkie, so I can ask them to take action at any time."

Duan Haiping also felt that this arrangement was foolproof, so he didn't add anything else.

Soon, almost all the guests arrived. Zhao Zhengxing waved his hand to announce the start of the banquet, and the high-quality audio system played popular dance music.

The dancers spun and jumped on the stage, their light dance moves sometimes like a swallow in the palm of your hand, sometimes like a flying swan, graceful and radiant.

Liu Jinan admired it for a moment, but his vigilance made him immediately realize something was wrong: "Why can't I see Zhao Wuji?"

Even if Zhao Wuji and Zhao Zhengxing don't get along, as the second master of the Zhao family, he has no reason to be absent from Zhao Zhengxing's birthday party.

Liu Jinan believed that with Zhao Wuji's emotional intelligence, he would not do such a thing as losing the big picture for the small.

Then there is only one possibility left, Zhao Wuji can't come.

Then he discovered that Zhao Mingxi and Zhao Xingwei were not present either.

He told Duan Haiping about the situation, and Duan Haiping immediately decided: "Let's leave here first."

At this moment, a servant nearby suddenly came over and said, "I'll take you out. Please save my father."

Liu Jinan looked carefully and saw that this was the boy Zhao Xingwei.

How did he put on makeup like this?

He had scowls and a beard. If it weren't for the fact that his facial features still bore resemblance to Zhao Xingwei, coupled with his spiritual powers, he wouldn't have been able to recognize him at all.

"What happened?" Liu Jinan asked.

Zhao Xingwei spoke quickly: "Zhao Zhengxing has set up a nightmare array to trap you. You must leave here quickly to rescue my father from him. Go!"

"My dear nephew, today is my fortieth birthday party. How can you chase me away?" Zhao Zhengxing appeared on the second floor without knowing when. He smiled sinisterly, "Not to mention such a distinguished guest."

Liu Jinan didn't intend to say a word to Zhao Zhengxing. He pulled Duan Haiping and Zhao Xingwei together and was about to use his magic to take them away from here.

However, he found that his special abilities seemed to be frozen and he could not use them at all.

How could this be?

Zhao Zhengxing burst into laughter: "It's too late. The entire banquet hall is filled with Fengling Incense. After inhaling Fengling Incense, you can't use your spiritual power and can only be slaughtered. Captain Liu, Captain Liu, you are too cautious. You don't know that the only antidote to Fengling Incense is the wine here."

Liu Jinan's pupils suddenly shrank. Oh my god, he was tricked!

This damn Zhao Zhengxing actually played dirty tricks!
