Everyone followed the direction in which Han Minghui was pointing, and those nearby were almost as shocked as Han Minghui, nearly jumping up.
Those farther away couldn’t see who Han Minghui was pointing at, so they all wore puzzled expressions, unable to push through and not knowing what was happening.
"Li Xiu!" Sun Wuxi couldn’t help but call out, causing those outside who couldn’t see the situation to be startled.
The person standing below the stage with a smile on their face was, naturally, Li Xiu, who had just hurried back to the City of Love.
He hadn’t expected that just because he returned a few days late, the City of Love would hold such a grand morial service for him, so he had no choice but to co over quickly.
Li Xiu walked onto the stage with a smile, standing beside Han Minghui, he said with a laugh, "Thanks to Vice President Han for the praise. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known I was so exceptional."
Ignoring Han Minghui, who was still stunned and couldn’t react after his dream was shattered, Li Xiu directly addressed the crowd below the stage, "Thank you all for coming. No need for the mourning, let’s just start the feast. Today, it’s on . Enjoy the food and drink. If anything is amiss, don’t bla . After all, I have no experience. Next ti, it will be done even better."
The once-sad atmosphere instantly turned a bit odd, and so people couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
The Technician Group all rushed over, with Chu Jun and Old Qian leading the charge directly onto the stage.
"Vice President Han, please help take care of the guests and arrange the seating. All today’s expenses will be on my tab," Li Xiu said as he was already surrounded by the Technician Group.
The free feast was lively and filled with laughter. It’s rare to see such a unique gathering anywhere else.
Li Xiu, however, did not join in the al. Although he wanted a free al too, he had more important things to do at the mont.
While others went to have the feast, Li Xiu ran over to the President and returned to the City Lord’s Mansion with him.
"You’re really lucky to be able to return alive in such a way," the President said with a smile, looking Li Xiu up and down.
"It’s all thanks to you, Mr. President. I t an acquaintance of yours at the Jade Castle. If it weren’t for her, I would have lost my life." As Li Xiu spoke, he took out the piece of erald from his bosom and presented it to the President: "She asked to bring this to you."
The President received the erald, looking at Li Xiu with so surprise, and said, "She didn’t take your life?"
"What do you an? When she heard I was under your command, she was extrely kind to and even gave an erald stone." Li Xiu took out the piece of erald that was even larger than a human head.
The President looked at Li Xiu in a daze for a long ti before smiling and saying, "You really are blessed, lucky indeed."
Li Xiu wanted to say more, but the President seed unwilling to discuss matters related to Jiang Linglan further, only asking Li Xiu to recount the events that occurred.
This ti, Li Xiu was more cautious and dared not speak recklessly again.
He only recounted the incident of eting Jiang Linglan, avoiding ntioning the child and the eventual defeat of the Jade Demon King together with Jiang Linglan.
"Her na isn’t Jiang, nor is it Jiang Linglan." The President’s words imdiately made Li Xiu break out in cold sweat.
Li Xiu imdiately understood that Jiang Linglan hadn’t truly believed him at that ti. She probably didn’t take his words seriously.
His survival was likely influenced by matters related to the City of Love, or perhaps Jiang Linglan originally had no intention of killing him and wanted to use him to take sothing out.
However, Li Xiu didn’t tell the President about the matters concerning the City of Love.
"For you to co back alive is indeed miraculous." The President patted Li Xiu on the shoulder, smiling as he said, "Go back and enjoy the feast. There aren’t many in the world who can attend their own feast."
Li Xiu didn’t dare say much more, taking his leave.
Of course, he wouldn’t actually go to the feast, nor did he truly plan to pay.
The cost of the feast and the goods had already been covered by Han Minghui, he played the good guy, and there was no way to ask him for money.
Instead of going ho, Li Xiu directly went to find Old Guan, placing the Light-Speed No. 3 and Light-Speed Spear in front of him.
Old Guan, looking at the Light-Speed No. 3 and Light-Speed Spear that appeared like thoroughly burnt iron blocks, emitting a brilliant glow, said in astonishnt, "How did it beco like this? How co there’s such terrifying Light Energy inside the Light-Speed No. 3 and Light-Speed Spear?"
Li Xiu recounted the series of events. He was absorbing the Jade Divine Light of the Jade Demon King at the ti, but because the Light Energy of the Jade Divine Light was too strong, he couldn’t directly absorb it into his own body and could only use the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No. 3 as a buffer.
But suddenly the gate shut, and the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No. 3 couldn’t enter the Land of Trial, vanishing into thin air.
At that ti, most of the Jade Divine Light absorbed by Li Xiu remained stored within the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No. 3. With their disappearance, that Light Energy stayed in the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No. 3.
When Li Xiu erged from the Gate of the Green Field, the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No. 3 returned with him, but they could no longer be controlled; just like now, the entire Demon Armor and Light-Speed Spear emitted extrely strong light energy waves.
"In theory, once the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No. 3 are separated from you, you shouldn’t be able to control them. They’re storing such terrifying Light Energy. If this Light Energy can’t exit, over ti within the Demon Armor it will erode and damage it. This is evident from the current state of the Light-Speed Spear and Light-Speed No. 3. It’s clear they’re severely eroded by the Light Energy. Almost all the materials and components are filled with this terrifying Light Energy. What’s strange is, they don’t seem to be damaged..." Old Guan reached out, wanting to touch the Light-Speed No. 3, but Li Xiu stopped him.
"Don’t touch. The Light Energy on them is too strong now, even the overflow of Light Energy waves has considerable destructive power." Li Xiu said as he brought a teacup close to the Light-Speed No. 3.
The teacup shattered to pieces with a pop as it approached the Light-Speed No. 3.
"Such violent Light Energy, yet the Light-Speed No. 3 and Light-Speed Spear remain intact. This is intriguing. Help take them to the test platform. I must conduct a thorough test on them." Old Guan’s eyes lit up, intensely fixated on the Light-Speed No. 3 and Light-Speed Spear.
