When they arrived at the dining room, Zhang Chen and Qi Qingxiu saw two young male demihumans and three female demihumans already sitting around the dining table.
Three of them had a mix of Long Huoyan and Huo Jinying’s characteristics, indicating they were their children. The other two had different characteristics, and they were sitting next to their partners.
The five young demihumans looked at both won for a mont before turning their gazes because they felt a strong pressure on their bloodline coming from Zhang Chen, which ant the dragon bloodline in her body was stronger than theirs.
Long Huoyan led Zhang Chen and Qi Qingxiu to sit with them, and Huo Jinying introduced the five young demihumans to the two. "Seated on the left are our first son and his wife, Long Lingxun and Guang Lianyu. Seated on the right are our first daughter and her husband, Long Feiyue and Yao Qianmo. Seated at the end is our second daughter, Long Xiaolian."
"They are Zhang Qingxiu of the fox race and Zhang Chen of the light dragon race." Long Huoyan spoke to his three children and two children-in-law.
"Welco to our kingdom." The five young demihumans greeted them.
Qi Qingxiu and Zhang Chen nodded and replied to them. "Thank you for your welco."
The five young demihumans wondered about the identities of their other guests because their parents had said they invited five people, but only two had arrived. However, they didn’t have to wait long for their answer, as a guard walked in, followed by Zhang Fei and three other won.
The five young demihumans were surprised to see the three won being so intimate with Zhang Fei, which ant he was their husband. Unlike them, Long Huoyan and Huo Jinying were more shocked by Jia Yuyan’s presence with them because she was not previously in their group, but she had arrived with the others.
Zhang Fei casually walked towards Long Huoyan and Huo Jinying, cupping his hands in greeting. "My na is Zhang Fei, and the three won beside are also my wives like Zhang Qingxiu and Zhang Chen. They are Hul Lili and Hu Yue from the moon fox race, and Jia Yuyan is from the fairy race, who is also the granddaughter of Jia Shengyun and Jia Lingzhu."
Hu Lili, Hu Yue, and Jia Yuyan followed their husbands by cupping their hands to Long Huoyan and Huo Jinying while greeting them.
Long Huoyan, Huo Jinying, and their five children had never heard of the moon fox race before because they did not exist in the Paradise Realm, so they were curious about Hu Lili and Hu Yue. Moreover, the two fox won had such similar appearances, and they guessed that they were mother and daughter.
Long Huoyan and Huo Jinying shifted their gazes to Jia Yuyan, but they did not recognize her because Jia Zizhen sent her to the Three Mortal Realms to look for Zhang Fei in the past, and the ti flow difference between the two realms was very long.
After introducing his family mbers to them, Long Huoyan gestured with his hands. "Please sit with us, and we can chat while enjoying our royal specialties."
"Thank you." Zhang Fei and the three won imdiately sat in the sa row as Qi Qingxiu and Zhang Chen.
Huo Jinying first ordered the servant to get another set of tableware, especially since they hadn’t prepared one for Jia Yuyan. After that, she asked the female fairy. "Are you really the granddaughter of Jia Shengyun and Jia Lingzhu?"
"I am." Jia Yuyan nodded at her. "In the past, Jia Zizhen sent to the Three Mortal Realms to look for my husband, and I spent too much ti there, so it’s natural that you two don’t know ."
Long Huoyan and Huo Jinying were surprised and looked at Zhang Fei again. "Did you really co from the Three Mortal Realms?"
"Yes." Zhang Fei pointed to Zhang Chen, Hu Lili, and Hu Yue. "They also co from the Three Mortal Realms, and I brought them to this realm a little over six years ago. Since then, we joined the Moonlit Passion Temple, and I’ve beco one of their leaders now that Qing Qiu’er and You Feiling have beco my wives."
The five young demihumans were not surprised to hear that Zhang Fei had many wives, as it was common for mbers of the demihuman race to have multiple spouses; however, they were shocked to learn that he had beco the leader of the Moonlit Passion Temple and married two human won, Qing Qiu’er and You Feiling. Moreover, both won were much stronger than him, especially the forr, who was the sect master of the sect.
"Why did you join a human sect? Wouldn’t it be better if you went to the Dragon-Soaring Divine Domain and joined the other beast races?" Long Xiaolian asked him.
Zhang Fei looked at her and answered her questions. "So races think that humans are inferior to them, and they never want to have a relationship with them. For , I consider all races to be equal, including those demon races. All races, including your demihuman race, contain both good and evil individuals. The demon races are the sa; so are good, and so are evil. I’ve t many evil demons, and they are much more evil than mbers of other races, but I’ve also t many good demons."
"Does that an you also have a relationship with the demon races?" Long Lingxun asked, but his tone showed no kindness.
"Weren’t my words clear?" Zhang Fei responded with a casual smile, which caused Long Lingxun’s expression to darken. "I’ve never minded establishing relationships with all races, including the demon race. However, I only establish relationships with demons who have good intentions, and I will kill those with evil intentions. Likewise, with other races, I will befriend anyone with good intentions, and I will kill anyone with evil intentions, especially if they harbor evil intentions towards all my wives."
Long Lingxun wanted to ask Zhang Fei again, but Guang Lianyu hurriedly held his hand and spoke to him via voice transmission, asking him not to treat their guests like that because of his hatred for the demon races.
"Brother Zhang, I admire your views on all races." Yao Qianmo raised the glass in front of him. "Just like you, I’m not concerned about the enmity between all races. I will befriend anyone who has good intentions, and I will kill those who have evil intentions, especially towards my wife and family mbers. For that, I will toast to you, and I hope we can be good friends in the future."
Long Feiyue didn’t say anything, but she supported her husband because she also wasn’t concerned about racial differences, and she considered all races equal, including demon races.
Long Lingxun’s face darkened seeing his sister and brother-in-law like that, and he left the dining room because he would rather not gather with people like them.
Zhang Fei couldn’t care less about Long Lingxun because there were many people like him in all races, but he was also wary of him, and he would kill him if he dared to look for trouble with him.
Guang Lianyu sighed softly, and she imdiately spoke to her parents-in-law before following her husband, leaving the dining room.
Zhang Fei also raised his glass. "As long as we share the sa views, we can be good friends, Brother Yao."
"Hahaha! Good... Good..." Yao Qianmo laughed and drank the drink in his glass, followed by Zhang Fei.
After that, Long Huoyan spoke to Zhang Fei. "Please forgive my son. He had a big problem with the demon race in the past, and he has hated them ever since."
"Don’t worry, I’m not that petty, and I can understand your son’s hatred for the demon races." Zhang Fei casually replied.
Jia Yuyan then asked Long Huoyan. "What’s the problem between your son and the demon races?"
"Sigh." Huo Jinying let out a soft sigh before explaining the situation to them. "Our son had two best friends in the past, and one of them was his first lover. Unfortunately, they died at the hands of the demons while they were traveling to another domain, and he almost died with them that ti, so he’s hated them ever since."
"Which demon race is the killer?" Qi Qingxiu asked.
"The Torture Demon Race." Qi Qingxiu nodded to Huo Jinying, and she was not surprised that the demon race mbers killed demihumans. "Before the demons of that race killed them, they tortured both of them, and—"
"That’s enough, wife." Long Huoyan interrupted his wife as the servants had already begun bringing out the dishes. "Zhang Fei, I hope you’ll be willing to stay in my kingdom for the night, so we can have a lot to talk about after this banquet."
Zhang Fei nodded at him. "I don’t have any business for the next few days, so it’s fine if we stay here tonight. Moreover, I have sothing to discuss with you, but we’ll talk about that later."
"Good." After all the dishes were ready, Long Huoyan began the banquet, and all of Zhang Fei’s wives thoroughly enjoyed the specialties of the demihuman kingdom.
During the banquet they also talked about light matters, especially about the Moonlit Passion Temple, and Zhang Fei told them about his decision to change the sect into a universal sect with several different halls, which made Long Huoyan and his family curious about the sect’s changes.
