In the center of Liubo Island stood a Splendid Palace. Inside, graceful maids bustled about carrying silver platters. Their every movement was respectful and perfectly composed; they dared not overstep in the slightest, terrified of making a single mistake.
Slender, fair hands served platter after platter of delicacies and fine wines made from various rare birds, Exotic Beasts, and Heavenly and Earthly Treasures. A rich aroma lingered throughout the vast palace, so potent that it even attracted the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.
Never mind the magnificent palace itself; the sheer variety of delicacies at this banquet represented an astronomical expense. Converted into Primordial Stones, the cost would be at least one hundred thousand pounds. Only a figure like the Ancient King could afford to be so extravagant.
Up the golden-tiled stairs, a middle-aged man was seated in the palace's seat of honor.
