Chapter 278 - 34: The World Beyond the Star Sea
The political discussions lasted a day, not only outlining the plans for dealing with the Elf Race but also concerning the battle against the Burning Snakes. Three kings had died, and according to the pre-war pact, other states were forbidden from military suppression against them. Young heirs from these three nations, particularly from the Black Nation, had evoked sympathy. There was a plan to form an alliance with four countries to aid the development of these three nations, which could potentially enter a phase of rapid development. However, whether the crown princes could truly control their national power depended on their own fate.
When a rebellion occurred domestically, the kings of the four countries would not intervene. On the contrary, if the rebels successfully seized power, that nation would become a pie everyone wanted a slice of.
This time, crown princes from Pingyao, Hengdao, and Pei Nation came to attend the council against the Elf Race, which was essentially to gauge the attitude and the maximum support from the other four countries.
After the council, King Cang hosted a grand banquet, which was an opportunity for the nations to bring their beautiful women and a chance for them to allure Lu Hong.
As soon as Lu Hong entered the banquet, he was surrounded by a bevy of beauties, "Ladies, I have matters to discuss with the King of Black Nation, please let me through."
"Baron, you’ve been discussing all day, it’s time to rest," cooed an enchantress from Black Nation, her purple eyes extraordinarily seductive.
"Ah, it really is about something important," Lu Hong hurriedly tossed out the words and squeezed through the crowd to escape to the kings.
King Liang Chen chuckled, "So, Baron, have you taken a fancy to anyone?"
"Let’s not talk about that. I have some private matters to discuss with the King of the Black Nation."
"Oh?" The interest of the King of the Black Nation was piqued, seeing this as a perfect opportunity to build a relationship with Lu Hong, "What is it? Just say it."
