The conversation lasted until the sky was about to darken, when Dragon King graciously invited Gu Tao to join a banquet in the palace.
Gu Tao understood that this guy just wanted to show off to those two, but this was essentially free advertising for him, so he happily agreed.
At the banquet, Gu Tao truly became the center of attention, a focus brought by the power of knowledge. Even royal-like figures were rendered younger brothers before Gu Tao, who closed their mouths obediently to listen him continue the afternoon's topic.
Of course, after gaining a rough understanding, they began to harbor ill intentions towards this splendid and radiant palace; life here was too comfortable and too convenient. The Dragon King also didn't try to hide his pride, that blatant flaunting of wealth that, although it made others itch with envy, left them without a good solution, because after all, they didn't have it themselves.
