Banquet

Soon, it was already morning.

The banquet was going to take place today and it was going to be a big one. The maids could be seen already preparing for it, some could be seen cleaning around the clan, and some decorating the desired hall.

In the kitchen, maids could be seen on every corner preparing delicious delicacies. The sweet fragrance emitting out of the kitchen could make one mouth watery, not able to bear the hunger in him. Though cultivators could stay without food for months, some love to satisfy themselves with pleasant food. Some food and wine bring great benefits to the body of cultivators so there is no doubt that a cultivator will miss out on these benefits.

Meanwhile, in Lu Shang's room, he could be seen on his bed still snoring tiredly after training in his wind-withering technique and simultaneously cultivating for hours in the night.

*Knock* 

Suddenly, a soft knock echoed from the outside but there was no response from Lu Shang who was in a deep sleep.

The person knocked again, this time with a little force attached.

Lu Shang lazily woke up as he got disturbed by the force of the knock, he stood up and then stretched his body before replying.

"Who is there?" He asked, rubbing his eyes as he tried to force himself awake.

"I-It me, Su Qing, Y-Young master" A weak and tiny voice of a young maid came from outside the door.

Lu Shang walked towards the door after identifying that it was Su Qing, "What is the matter, I was….." He said as he was opening the door but froze on his words as he saw her bowing with her knee slightly bent, a set of pure white grand clothes lying in her hands.

"What is the need for these clothes?" Lu Shang finally spoke after some minutes of silence. He was looking directly at the eyes of Su Qing as if he was searching for an answer.

"Young master, pardon this your servant for disturbing your sleep but your grandfather has ordered me to pass this over to you since today is going to be the banquet to celebrate his return and your awakening. You have to look good, young master" Su Qing said as her hands were trembling but she was trying to ease the nervousness in her, her head bowed not daring to raise her head as she felt the gaze of Lu Shang on her.

When Lu Shang heard Su Qing's explanation, it was then that his brain clicked about the banquet that had been arranged in favor of him and his grandfather. He never expected that his grandfather would arrange for him a grand and breathtaking dress.

He didn't get angry, he took the dress from her with a smile. "Oh, I almost forgot about the banquet. Thanks for the reminder" 

Su Qing was relieved to see that he wasn't angry and maintained her bowing position as she said, "Thanks for understanding, young master. I will be taking my leave" She turned to walk away before stopping and then turned to face Lu Shang. "Your grandfather also instructed me to tell you that after you are done with your dressing, you should go come find him in his room"

Lu Shang simply nodded his head before closing the door. He walked towards his bed and carefully dropped the white dress on it.

"Awn… Today is going to be a stressful day but i will also get to see the different clans of Gaoliang District" He said to himself.

He didn't forget about the tempering of his body. He used some hours for his push-ups and which he greatly improved on.

His figure was getting used to it and the tempering of his body, there was a visible change to his body and also his muscles were now erectile.

After he was done, he took his bath.

He quickly dressed himself in the pure white grand clothes that were brought to him. After he was done dressing up.

He came to the front of the mirror in his room, and looked in the mirror, only to feel impressed at how much more impressive he looked with these clothes on.

"This dress makes me look more like a young royal master…." He mumbled to himself as he looked at himself with a satisfied look.

He was dressed in a long-sleeved, white robe covering his entire body stopping at his feet. There was a white string tied at his waist, holding the robe in place. He was looking like an angel from above.

He checked through his wardrobe and then randomly chose a pair of white shoes that matched the white robe. These shoes were made from a very rare leather by just feeling the texture, you will know that it's expensive.

With this white robe on, he truly felt as part of the royal personnel of his clan.

He walked out of his room and told one of the guards near his room, to show him the way to his grandfather's room.

He walked behind the guards, he passed through many places and he was amazed by the sudden transformation of the clan. 'They are truly prepared for the banquet and it seems it's going to be a big one, interesting'

After walking for some minutes, the guard soon stopped in front of a door. "Young master, this is the room you enquired" 

"Oh, thanks for leading the way. I will proceed from here, you can go" Lu Shang said before knocking at the door.

The guard bowed his head and then walked away.

Immediately, Lu Shang knocked on the door. A voice rang out from the inside. "Lu Shang, come in. The door isn't locked" Lu Mang said, he had been expecting Lu Shang.

Lu Shang wasn't surprised by the words, he gently pressed down the knob of the door. The door opened and he entered inside.

Lu Mang was standing facing the mirror in his room with his back against Lu Shang.

Lu Shang was surprised when he entered the room, the room was several times bigger to that of his own. He fed his eyes as he looked at the layout of the room.

The bed of the room was occupying 1/10 of the room while other things were well arranged all over the room. On earth, this room can be duplicated to form 3 living rooms or if not 5 self.

Surprised had taken over Lu Shang that he forgot about himself for a few seconds before recovering himself. "Lu Shang greets grandfather" He quickly spoke.

"Hahahaha, you forgot about yourself for a few seconds. You must be amazed by the length of my room" Lu Mang turned and faced Lu Shang. He was able to observe him. "Wow. You are looking good. Even I, am attracted by your handsomeness and breathtaking beauty" He teasingly said.

"Grandfather, come on don't flatter me with your flowery words," Lu Shang replied shyly.

Lu Mang laughed at the reaction of Lu Shang. "You are funny, come on. I'm not joking, if I happen to be a girl, I would take upon myself to woo you cause you're so handsome" Lu Mang continued teasing him.

"Grandfather, don't say such. You're the most awesome here, you will be able to get any woman of your choice with how handsome and powerful you are" Lu Shang replied.

Lu Mang was still dressed in the same white robe as Lu Shang.

"Hmm, you don't have to worry yourself. There will be a lot of clans coming today and I am sure that there will be a lot of girls, maybe you will be able to win the heart of some girls with your look" Lu Mang winked at Lu Shang.

"...." Just as Lu Shang was about to reply when a loud disturbing sound came outside outside.

Lu Mang smiled. "There are already coming" he walked to his window and parted the curtains to the side before calling out to Lu Shang to come to take a look.

Lu Shang got to the window and looked out through the large windows, he was surprised to see dozens and dozens of fancy carriages drawn and people in their best clothes and appearances gathered outside, slowly entering the premises of the clan. 

But what caught his attention was the dozens of grand and big carriages drawn by strange animals.
