"Miss Diana, what is it?"
Looking at the general of the Bronze Black Cross, Blake smiled and asked.
His approachable demeanor made everyone else's eyes brighten, and their thoughts instantly became lively.
"On behalf of the Bronze Black Cross, I wish to pledge allegiance to you, to become a faction under your command, and to announce my loyalty here."
Upon hearing this, Diana's expression became solemn as she knelt on one knee, placing her right hand over her heart and spoke earnestly.
As soon as she finished speaking, the hall immediately became noisy, with most people staring wide-eyed at Diana. They couldn't help but feel regretful. They hadn't expected Diana to be so composed and brave, to be the first one to take such a step.
However, recalling the information they had received about the Seventh King having been staying at the Bronze Black Cross for a long time, it was clear their relationship was close. This made them relax and realize why Diana had the courage to say this.
Of course, the more they thought about it, the more envious they became. If only the Seventh King had been a guest in their factions!
"Diana, looks like you got ahead of us this time."
Among the crowd, Paolo sighed and shook his head while holding his wine glass.
"By the way, where is Erica? How could she miss such an important occasion?"
Paolo seemed to remember something and furrowed his brows.
"King?"
As everyone's eyes were fixed on them, Diana became a little nervous. She cautiously looked at Blake, who appeared to be deep in thought, and asked.
"Sorry, I didn't expect you to suddenly say this. Although I don't wish to form a faction, since it's the Bronze Black Cross and Miss Diana, who have treated me so well, I will gratefully accept your pledge."
Upon hearing this, Blake smiled gently.
"Thank you for your favor, King! From now on, the Bronze Black Cross will go through fire and water, and serve you with all our heart!"
Seeing Blake accept her pledge, Diana immediately became excited and declared her oath, her joy evident.
The other aristocrats and faction leaders, however, showed bitter expressions. This was typical of the first one to make a move.
They could tell from Blake's response that he didn't want to form a faction, but he accepted the Bronze Black Cross's pledge out of gratitude for their past hospitality.
"King, would you like me to help collect the gifts brought by the various factions?"
Diana then respectfully asked.
"Hmm, please do."
Upon hearing this, Blake nonchalantly replied, allowing Diana to go and handle the gifts, while receiving envious and jealous glances from others.
"Not bothering me is best. But are Lily and the others purposely avoiding me by not coming to the banquet?"
Blake continued eating and drinking, as his hunger had finally been satiated after three days of unconsciousness.
This also made it difficult for the factions to approach him freely. Even the young girls could only gaze at him with longing from afar.
However, this situation didn't last long.
As everyone was in a dilemma, a casually dressed, handsome young man with black hair calmly walked over, surprising everyone.
"Lord Blake, may I sit here?"
"Suit yourself."
Hearing this, Blake raised his head slightly, glanced at the young man, and simply replied.
"Thank you."
Without showing any signs of surprise, the young man calmly sat across from him.
"Lord Blake, allow me to introduce myself. I am Lu Yinghua, from China."
Then the young man smiled and spoke his name, which caused some people in the hall to gasp. Lu Yinghua, this name was not ordinary!
"Lu Yinghua? The Martial King of Jiangnan, disciple of the Holy Church's leader Luo Hao?"
Upon hearing this, Blake's hand holding the knife and fork froze for a moment, and he looked at the young man with surprise.
"It's an honor that the Seventh King is familiar with my information."
Lu Yinghua replied, neither humble nor arrogant, with a smile.
"The disciple of the Martial King is here, what business do you have with me?"
Blake asked indifferently, his crystal blue eyes flashing slightly. He was quite interested in Luo Hao, not just because of her beauty but also because of her martial skills.
"Indeed, there is something. May I dare to ask, is Lord Blake martial arts from China?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yinghua asked seriously.
This made everyone else prick up their ears, listening carefully.
"Yes and no."
Blake casually replied. However, this time, it wasn't fluent English, but the most authentic Chinese.
"....!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yinghua was somewhat uncertain. The day before, he had investigated Blake's name, but even with the help of government agencies, he couldn't find any information about Blake. Furthermore, Blake's name was so sinicized. And the Chinese just spoken, it wasn't something a foreigner who had merely studied a foreign language could speak.
This left Lu Yinghua completely unable to guess Blake's true background.
"Don't think too much. You just need to know that I am learned from a chinese."
Noticing the change in Lu Yinghua's expression, Blake raised an eyebrow and said. He silently added in his heart, though, "Not from this world, though."
"Is that so?"
Hearing this, Lu Yinghua revealed a sincere smile. Although he didn't know Blake's true origins, knowing this was enough.
"Actually, my true purpose for coming here is only one. My master asked me to invite you to visit her secluded residence at Mount Lushan."
Afterward, Lu Yinghua's expression turned serious with a hint of fear.
"The Martial King inviting the Seventh King to visit, this is quite a big deal."
As soon as Lu Yinghua finished speaking, the hall suddenly became noisy, with various exclamations echoing in the air. Although the Martial King, Luo Hao, didn't get involved much in the world, her reputation trembled throughout the globe. At least, there were not more than ten people who had seen her true face.
According to rumors, the Martial King never saw outsiders. Even if someone happened to see her face, they would have their eyes gouged out and be thrown away, sometimes even leading to death.
Thus, there were two main rumors about her. One was that the Martial King was extremely ugly and dared not show her true face. This guess was widely accepted by most people, though of course, they dared not speak it out loud, only keeping it to themselves.
The second guess was that she was beautiful beyond compare, like a fairy. However, this was only imagined by a few.
As for her martial arts, no one doubted that she stood at the pinnacle of martial arts, a transcendent figure in the world, and was known as the Martial King.
And now, the Martial King had been moved by the birth of the Seventh King and invited him to visit?
This kind of thing hadn't even happened when other Demon Kings were born!
The implications made everyone unable to stop thinking.
