At the Li family's house, everyone dressed up carefully and waited quietly in the Magic Crystal Living Room.

"Why hasn't he come back yet? It's so late." Li Xiuling was anxious and dissatisfied.

Li Tu looked displeased, "No need to wait, let's go first."

Li Jing hurriedly said, "Father, please wait a little longer. There may be some delay."

"She is not a child anymore, she should know etiquette." Li Tu blamed Li Li for being willful and unruly.

Li Jing wanted to say something but was stopped by Li Tu's eyes. He could only send a message to Li Li, reminding her not to miss the Jianghe Banquet and not to be late.

Li Yan, who was as pure and beautiful as a clear spring, was secretly delighted: Today is my day to shine, Li Li, what can you use to compete with me!

"Let's go." Everyone left home and drove the magic carriage to the banquet hall.

The dinner was held at the Emerald Manor. When the Li family arrived at the venue, Li Tu and others greeted the invited guests not far from the door.

"Mr. Zhang, welcome to our place."

"Oh, Director Li, I'm sorry to have you here."

Li Tu greeted everyone one by one with a smile on his face.

"Chairman Qing is here!" the waiter in charge of reviewing the invitations shouted.

Li Tu stepped forward quickly and said, "Mr. Qing, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to be here. It's really my honor."

Chairman Qing walked in with a young man.

"This is Qing Wei, right? It's been a long time since we last met. You look even more handsome now. You resemble your demeanor back then, hahahaha."

The two were having a pleasant conversation when suddenly there was a commotion at the door.

"What's going on? What's the problem?" Li Tu walked closer and asked.

"Mr. Li, this gentleman has an invitation, but he is not registered on the list." The waiter said hurriedly.

The visitor was a stern young man with a face as bright as the moon, an upright figure and an extraordinary temperament, but he was sitting in a magic wheelchair.

This person was the man who had just moved near their home. Standing next to him was a foreign friend with blond hair and blue eyes. Li Tu felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was for a moment.

"This is our distinguished guest." Li Tu didn't want to cause any dispute.

The visitors were Ling You and Butler, who walked into the banquet hall calmly. Li Li had arranged for them to go ahead, and she went back to change clothes...

In the banquet hall illuminated by the stars, magical lights and shadows intertwined. Ling You was born into a mysterious family and had been familiar with such grand events since childhood. Butler, as a descendant of the nobility of the Elf Kingdom, was even more adept at it.

The guests around were talking in low voices, with different expressions, full of mystery.

"Whose descendant of the Star Lord is this? Why have we never seen him before?"

"Oh, which family's magician was allowed to step out of the hidden world?"

Ling You didn't care about these curious or contemptuous looks, but Butler was indignant.

"How can you be so disrespectful? It's really a blasphemy against the event!"

Ling You gently tasted the moonlight champagne served by the waiter, "Butler, calm down. Today is Lilith's coming-of-age celebration. Don't let any discord disturb the atmosphere."

Butler had to suppress his anger and drank the crystal liquid in the cup. In the quiet lounge, Lianna saw that the distinguished guests such as Jiangchuan had arrived, but Lilith had not yet appeared, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Sir, is the celebration ready to begin?" The butler quietly came to Li Tu and asked.

"Wait a moment." Li Tu glanced at the time and tried his best to keep calm.

After a few minutes, Lilith still didn't show up. Li Tu's face was serious: "No need to wait."

Just as he was about to step onto the ceremonial platform, the door opened again and the two men stepped in. Li Tu was surprised and hurried forward, his face filled with unconcealable joy.

"General Lian, I didn't expect you to come in person. It is such an honor for you to visit my humble home!" Li Tu was very excited.

He had invited the Lian family, but never expected a response. Who is Lian Xilai? The magic warlord of Lancheng! Although the Li family is rich, they are just ordinary people in the magic world, while the Lian family is extremely powerful. Such a wealthy family would actually attend the Li family's banquet. Li Tu immediately forgot his displeasure at Lilith's absence.

The guests all looked horrified. How could someone like Lian Xilai come here? Could the Li family have such a strong background? It seemed that the status of the Li family had to be re-evaluated.

"Who is this?" Li Tu asked the young man next to Lian Xilai.

Lian Xilai replied: "This is my nephew, Lian Yu, who is also Miss Lilith's schoolmate."

Li Tu naturally thought he was talking about Lianna, and was secretly pleased that his children really knew etiquette! He did not realize that Lian Xilai was actually talking about Lilith.

"Very good, the friendship between classmates is the most precious." Li Tu guided Lian Xilai into the banquet, "General Lian, please come this way."

After instructing the waiter to take good care of Lian Xilai and the others, Li Tu stepped onto the stage, radiant and happy: "Dear guests, dear relatives and friends, today is the awakening ceremony of my little daughter who is sixteen years old. Thank you all for coming."

Everyone responded with polite applause. Lianna walked out slowly arm in arm with Li Jin. She was wearing a pure white dress inlaid with star sand, her long hair slightly curled, and she had a sweet smile on her face, like a dreamy daffodil waiting to be loved.

Li Jin was wearing a custom-made white magician's dress, looking handsome and elegant.

"Chairman Li's daughter is really graceful and has an extraordinary temperament."

"Mr. Li Jin is also gentle and refined, and Mr. Li Tu has taught him well."

Many families with children of school-age have been secretly pondering this issue.

Lianna also had some close friends come.

"Wow, Xiaoyan, you look like a moonlight goddess today."

"Exactly. Where did you order this skirt? I asked my mom to make one for me, too."

Li Yan's laughter was like the morning mist in the magical forest, soft and mysterious. "Of course, I will ask my mother. That gorgeous dress will definitely highlight your elegance."

"where."

The girls chuckled. Today was Li Yan's celebration, and they cleverly used praises to highlight this princess of the fantasy world.

Lian Yu seemed bored and was chatting with Qing Wei. Suddenly, his eyes widened in surprise and he called Lian Xilai hurriedly: "Uncle, look over there, who is that!"

Lian Xilai looked at him in confusion, and then he was equally stunned, "Ayou, why is he in Emerald Valley!"

Although Ling You and Butler were not afraid of other people's eyes, they did not want to be the focus, so they chose to sit quietly in a secluded corner.

Lian Xilai and the other two hurriedly approached, "Ah You, why are you in Emerald Valley? Does Ling Feng know?"

Ling Feng is Ling You's elder brother and a powerful magician.

“Uncle Lian, it’s been a long time. I came to Emerald Valley to seek treatment.”

"Treatment?!" Lian Yu almost jumped up! "Brother Ling You, is there a chance your leg will heal?!"

Ling You smiled and nodded, like a spring breeze.

"That's great." Lian Yu danced with excitement, while Lian Xilai remained calm. He knew very well that the matter was not simple, but now was not the time to discuss it in detail. He planned to find a chance to ask later.

Li Tu felt that the atmosphere was suitable and was ready to reveal the real purpose of the banquet. "Today's gathering actually has another important matter. In addition to Li Yan, our Li family also has a daughter named Li Li. They are twin sisters. Because Li Li is weak, she has been recuperating in a secret place, and the outside world knows very little about her. Now that she has returned, she is introducing her existence to everyone through the mouth of Jiang Hou."

As soon as the voice fell, the audience was in an uproar.

The Li family has another daughter? Twin sisters? Everyone present was wise. They guessed that this might be a face-saving excuse for the family, or that Li Li was a secret bloodline.

Qing Wei was so surprised that he almost spit out the magic wine in his mouth, "What! The mysterious strong man last time turned out to be a child of the Li family, and she is the twin sister of the cute Li Yan in the first year of high school? The gap is too big!"

"Damn it! Sister Li Yan and she are twins? Do you think we are all blind? If they are twins, I will cut off their heads and kick them like a football!" Lian Yu jumped up angrily.

Lian Xilai had investigated Li Li after he first met her and learned all the truth. He frowned at the thought of letting his own daughter suffer injustice in order to preserve the family's reputation.

Li Tu continued, "Today is also my eldest daughter's birthday. Unfortunately, she has been unwell recently and cannot meet everyone." He could only use this excuse.

"But I'm here!" A clear female voice came from the door, instantly dispelling his excuses. It was the late Li Li.

The guests turned their heads at the same time, and the next moment, their eyes were full of amazement. The girl who was walking towards them was wearing a deep red flowing skirt. The skirt swayed lightly as she walked, and the phoenix embroidered with golden silk thread seemed to be lifelike. The girl walked lightly, and every move showed the noble temperament of a royal aristocrat.

Is this the eldest daughter of the Li family who was raised far away? Perhaps only a princess in the palace could be like this!

Everyone was whispering, all eyes were focused on Li Li, Li Yan, who was once the center of attention, turned pale. Why was she here! ...

Lilia slowly walked to Alyssa's side and whispered in a low voice that only the two of them could hear: "Are you angry? This is all your tricks since you can't get what you want."

Alyssa took off her dress and returned to Jonathan in the dressing room. As soon as she put on the black dress, Lilya keenly felt something was wrong. The cross-straps on the back of the dress should have revealed a subtle charm, but the thin line at the end of the straps was maliciously picked apart. If she really wore it to attend the banquet tonight, she would definitely become a laughing stock among the nobles of Blue Crystal City tomorrow.

Alyssa’s beautiful face twisted instantly, and she suppressed her anger, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

"Heh." Lilya sneered and turned away.

“Ah!” The girl next to Alyssa suddenly screamed.

“What are you arguing about!” Alyssa scolded irritably.

The girl pointed at Lilia's costume, "That's 'Phoenix Shocking the World'!"

"Phoenix Shocks the World? Are you talking about Master Li Jing's work?!"

"Oh my god, it's breathtakingly beautiful!"

Phoenix shocking the world? Alyssa couldn't believe that the masterpiece that was auctioned for 200 million gold coins was actually worn by Lilia. Where did she get such wealth?
