Chapter 1554: Chapter 1552: The Banquet (Fourth Update)
The commotion it caused was enough to prove that the club was no ordinary place.
And all of this was because the people appearing in the club tonight were extraordinary; clan leaders from Europe’s top families, heads of major conglomerates, and the owners of large forces were all gathered here.
One could say that this club tonight gathered the most elite figures of Europe’s and even the entire Western high society, all of whom stood at the top of the pyramid.
Any one of these people having an accident would make Europe tremble, which is why the security was so tight.
As for why these top socialites gathered here, it was because the club was hosting a welcome banquet, the guest of honor being the Atlantean Family, a terrifying family that disappeared for a century and reappeared, shaking the Western world.
The Blood Clan and the Saint Hall were once the most powerful in the Western world, but now both have been obliterated, and the Atlantean Family is even more fearsome than these forces.
“Quite the grand event!”
A playful voice rang out at this moment as a simply dressed man appeared here; it was Xiao Yifeng who had rushed over from China.
Xiao Yifeng had a playful smile at the corner of his mouth, looked around the club and was about to walk inside, but was blocked by the guards.
“What’s this? Good dogs don’t bar the way!”
Xiao Yifeng shouted directly.
“Sir, the club is not open to the public tonight, please leave!”
A staff member of the club approached, glanced at Xiao Yifeng, and said directly.
Looking at Xiao Yifeng’s appearance, it was evident he wasn’t on the guest list for tonight’s banquet, so the staff treated him as a guest looking to enjoy the club.
“I’m here to attend the banquet!”
Xiao Yifeng stated directly.
“Attend the banquet? Sir, do you have an invitation?”
The staff member asked.
“My face is the invitation!”
Xiao Yifeng pointed to his face and said to the staff.
“Sir, are you here to cause trouble?”
The staff’s face darkened as they looked at Xiao Yifeng, and the guards immediately glared fiercely at him, ready to forcefully eject him.
Soul-Capturing Eyes!
Xiao Yifeng directly used the Soul-Capturing Eyes; his eyes flashed with a purple halo, and immediately these people’s eyes went blank, soon falling under the control of his gaze.
“Can I go in now?”
Xiao Yifeng looked at them and asked.
“Yes, yes, sir, please enter!”
The staff quickly responded.
Xiao Yifeng walked in with a smile, disappearing from sight; soon, the staff and guards regained their senses but hadn’t seen Xiao Yifeng’s shadow, assuming he had left and didn’t give it further thought.
Xiao Yifeng entered the club and headed straight to the banquet hall.
On the way, many people noticed Xiao Yifeng’s conspicuous figure, eyes filled with curiosity since everyone present at the club tonight were Westerners.
Moreover, all were dressed in luxurious clothing; men like gentleman nobles, women with chic elegance. Suddenly, seeing Xiao Yifeng, an ordinary-dressed Chinese person, naturally surprised them a bit.
Xiao Yifeng casually entered the banquet hall, where hundreds had gathered, all renowned top figures of Western European high society.
Xiao Yifeng swept them a glance and went to the dessert section, grabbing a bunch of expensive treats and ate without concern for image; after a busy day, he hadn’t eaten, and there were free treats available.
Xiao Yifeng’s manner attracted considerable attention from those at the banquet, European elite individuals showed astonishment, unsure of where this guy appeared from.
“Kid, who are you? Panting here for a free meal, you have a death wish?”
A foreign man in a lavish tailcoat approached Xiao Yifeng, looking down with disdain, carrying an air of superiority.
“Why does it matter to you what I eat, not eating from your home!”
Xiao Yifeng glanced at him coldly and snorted dismissively.
“You… kid, do you know who I am, daring to speak to me this way!”
Seeing Xiao Yifeng’s attitude, the man was instantly furious, feeling his authority was challenged.
“Who are you? I don’t recognize you?”
A cold voice sounded behind the foreign man.
“Who?”
The man turned around abruptly, was about to speak, instead froze. A man in East African attire, dark-skinned, in his thirties, adorned in gold that blinded the eyes, exuding a noble aura, had arrived.
“Prince Soster, why are you here?”
Facing this man, the previously arrogant foreign man immediately bowed, recognizing the higher status.
Though he was a member of a top European family, this man was the prince of East Africa’s largest Oil Kingdom, controlling eighty percent of Europe’s oil, with wealth that could crush his family; naturally, he dared not be presumptuous.
“Dare disrespect my Boss, do you have a death wish? Apologize quickly, or I’ll ensure you never appear at any European high society banquet again!”
Soster said sternly to the man, carrying an imposing presence.
“Boss?”
Hearing Soster, the man’s expression turned to shock, and others around revealed disbelief too.
No one expected this Chinese man to be the Boss of the noble Prince Soster, which was unbelievable.
“Prince Soster, I…”
The foreign man’s face was awkward as he glanced at Xiao Yifeng, then looked at Soster, apologizing to a Chinese like Xiao Yifeng was utterly humiliating to his dignity and face.
“Seems you really don’t wish to appear at any European high society banquet in the future, if so, I’ll…”
Soster coldly responded, though he hadn’t finished the latter half before the man bowed to Xiao Yifeng, saying sorry.
He knew Soster’s power, and with such terrifying financial capability, crushing his family would be a matter of moments; without family support, he’d be worse than ordinary people, let alone attending banquets.
