Chapter 922 Entering the Banquet Hall

Chapter 922 Entering the Banquet Hall

"You've actually seen them before? That's great. These are the ministers of the Xiaguo Kingdom. These ministers have contributed a lot when I was building the Xiaguo Kingdom. The Moonlight Banquet is actually to thank them. I have no other intentions."

At this moment, a minister suddenly clapped his hands and said to the crowd, "Welcome, esteemed guests. This is our 20th anniversary. Let's do something more exciting."

Li Nanchu coughed, and the minister immediately changed the topic.

"Recently, there has been a lot of good wine and delicacies in the Xiaguo Kingdom. Please relax a little. After the Moonlight Banquet, we won't have this much fun again until the next banquet."

Jiang Ming clearly heard Li Nanchu's cough, but he felt strange about this sudden remark.

He obviously did not want them to know something.

"What exciting things?"

Yuan Hehe was not used to these people and quickly asked a question.

The minister wiped his cold sweat and smiled awkwardly. "We're playing with some imported toys."

"In that case, let's take them out and play with them. Could it be that you're hiding them? The king probably won't be happy," Sikong Wuyuan said as he looked at Li Nanchu.

"Yeah, take out all those toys," said Li Nanchu.

As he spoke, he secretly gave the minister a look.

The minister immediately understood and hurriedly brought in a batch of blue and white porcelain.

These blue and white porcelain pieces looked very normal. There was nothing fun about them at all.

Yuan Hehe could not help but frown. "What's so fun about these things?"

He felt that Li Nanchu was trying to trick them.

At this moment, a few balls suddenly jumped out of the blue and white porcelain.

When they stopped moving, Jiang Ming and the others realized that these balls were snakes.

These snakes were all different in shape, and even the colors on them were different. The only thing they had in common was that they seemed to have been tamed.

Li Nanchu pretended to call them over.

"You can play with these snakes. They will obediently do as you say."

These snakes looked very fun, but Jiang Ming felt that they were not what the minister was referring to earlier, but he could not say anything else.

He tried to move forward and said to one of the snakes, "Slither around."

The snakes really listened to him. They quickly followed his instructions and even slithered in a circle for Jiang Ming.

The other ministers also began to command the other snakes.

There were so many snakes that Yuan Hehe was also interested.

However, he found that there seemed to be something wrong with the snakes' tails. When he got closer, he found that there was an especially small ring that was tightly gripping each of the snakes' tails.

Yuan Hehe could not help but feel strange. He told Sikong Wuyuan about this in his heart.

Sikong Wuyuan's curiosity was piqued. He took the opportunity when Li Nanchu and the others were not paying attention to remove the rings.

However, at that moment, the snakes suddenly became violent. They grew larger and attacked the ministers.

The ministers fled for their lives, but they could not match the speed of the snakes.

The snakes wrapped around the ministers and threw them out.

Those ministers did not even make a sound.

Not only that, when they were thrown out, they were still motionless, as if they had already become living corpses.

Jiang Ming felt that something was amiss about them.

However, he could not care less about them. The rings on the snakes' tails broke free one by one, and the snakes attacked him, Yuan Hehe, and the others.

The child's spiritual energy could not compare to the spiritual energy of these snakes. He ran around in all directions in fear.

"What's with these snakes? Why are they suddenly like this?"

Li Nanchu panicked.

"Did someone take one of the snakes' rings? Who took it away?"

Sikong Wuyuan could not help but feel embarrassed.

"I took it."

Li Nanchu was instantly enraged.

"How can you take the rings away? The rings are used to control them. If even one of them is removed, the other snakes will not be under our control anymore."

However, no matter what, things had already turned out this way. Li Nanchu could only gather the others and leave as soon as possible.

Jiang Ming felt even stranger that there were no ministers among the people gathered, but he still did not say anything.

After listening to Li Nanchu's instructions, they arrived at the restaurant's secret room. However, the snakes discovered the secret room and kept hitting the door.

Those doors looked sturdy, but they were not sturdy at all. After a while, cracks appeared on them.

The other people in the hall started to panic and tremble.

Li Nanchu tried to calm everyone down, but he realized that it was impossible.

He could only go forward and strengthen his spiritual energy. However, his spiritual energy was not enough to stop the snakes.

Not long after, he was sent flying by the snakes.

At this moment, the door was opened by the snakes. The smaller snakes rushed over, wanting to gather in front of the other people and eat them.

At the critical moment, Jiang Ming raised his hand and directly turned the spiritual energy in his hand into a spiritual energy ball. He hit the snakes one by one.

Yuan Hehe and Sikong Wuyuan also quickly assisted Jiang Ming.

They also saw the child's situation and quickly brought the child to their side.

After the snakes turned back into balls, Jiang Ming raised his hand and shook the balls out. Then, he closed the door.

Li Nanchu's entire body was badly bitten by the snakes. He was moaning in pain. His voice was very soft.

When they saw that the snakes had been cleared one by one, the servants came to Li Nanchu and greeted him and Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming walked to Li Nanchu. He glanced at him and said, "I can treat your injuries. But I need you to cooperate with me on one thing."

Li Nanchu did not think that he needed to rely on Jiang Ming. "Thank you for your kindness," he said. "But I don't need your treatment now. Physician, come and take a look at me." 

He looked at the royal physician beside him.

He was especially glad.

Fortunately, he had brought the royal physician over.

Otherwise, he would have to ask Ning Caichen for help. He did not want to be caught by him.

After the royal physician examined him, he sighed. "Your Majesty, I really have no way to treat you. I really can't identify your injuries. I hope you can forgive me."
