I Am Born With A Silver Spoon
Chapter 783 Invitation to the Banquet

"Who was it?" asked Chen Hao curiously.

"It was Chen Diancang. I don't know what tactics he used, but he was the one who eliminated the entire Chen Family overnight-the very family who raised him. From then on, he hid in Hidden Dragon Island, and established the current Chen Cultivator Family. One thing worth mentioning is that in just ten years, the entire Chen Cultivator Family flourished rapidly. Moreover, their strength is manyfold stronger than the previous Chen Family!"

"After that, Chen Diancang came up with another scheme called the 'Insight Plan', which is closely related to you. He seemed to have gotten his hands on some secrets, because he had been making preparations for this plan for quite some time!" said Master Ghost.

"From what you've just said, it seems like a lot of things that have happened are linked to my grandfather, am I right?" said Chen Hao in disbelief.

"Yes. Not only that, Chen Diancang seems like he has a deep connection with the Border Realm! This might be part of his 'Insight Plan'!" said Master Ghost.

"The Border Realm? Master Ghost, are you talking about the legendary Border Realm located at the center of the Earth?" asked Long Ye. It was an eye-opener for him too.

Master Ghost nodded.

"I don't care what this plan is about, nor do I care about the person we are facing-regardless of his relationship with me. I will not allow him to hurt anyone!" A hint of determination flashed across Chen Hao's eyes.

"Since Master Ghost knows where Hidden Dragon Island is, I suggest that we depart for it tomorrow. Coincidentally, I've been hearing too many stories about this Chen Cultivator Family. I want to see for mysel just how different this Chen Family is!" said Chen Hao casually.

"Alright, Mr. Chen. It just so happens that our Dragon Squad Center has specialized ships and fleets. If you don't mind, Master Chen, I can contribute a bit of help to repay your deeds!" offered Long Ye immediately.

He had witnessed Chen Hao's capabilities before. Hence, Long Ye had a gut feeling that if he could forge a good relationship with this capable man, it would bring great benefits to the Dragon Squad—perhaps even to the future of the entire Long Family.

Hence, Long Ye did not pass up on such an opportunity now.

Similarly, Chen Hao did not turn down Long Ye's kind offer as well. He was fine with it because his experts from Xuanyang Palace could join him on the journey, and they could look after one another.

The very next morning, the well-prepared sailing team departed in the wee hours of the morning.

The fleet was quite huge. It comprised more than ten passenger ships which headed to South Yue in the Southern Region.

As Chen Hao stood on the deck and gazed at the endless sea, an indescribable feeling surfaced within him.

"It has been four whole years since I've been separated from you, Tongxin. During these four years, everything has changed; I am no longer the person I used to be. I wonder how you are doing right now, but I don't even know if you are still alive."

A wave of sadness came over Chen Hao, especially now when he had so many worries going on in his mind.

With his family abducted by the Chen Family, he could only hope that they were not harmed.

If he could, Chen Hao would bear all the pain instead of his family.

Moreover, he was about to face his own grandfather, who he had respected dearly.

Chen Hao's emotions were a mess.

Just when Chen Hao was frustrated by everything on his mind, a girl's voice sounded from behind. "Hey, mister. Did you follow the group boarding this ship?" Chen Hao turned around and saw two girls standing behind him.

The girl who spoke up was wearing athletic clothing from head to toe, her hair tied up in a ponytail. She looked pleasant and sweet, which matched her voice.

She looked about 23 years old and had a wealthy vibe to her.

Meanwhile, Chen Hao's eyelids twitched when he turned his gaze toward the other girl standing beside her.

Although Chen Hao had come across countless beautiful girls, he was still stunned by the girl standing in front of him.

She was wearing an elegant, long skirt. Her facial features were very refined and she had a sexy figure. Nothing about her would prevent her from being the center of attention.

However, compared to the girl with the ponytail, she appeared hostile.

After brushing through her strands of hair which had braved the wind, she glanced at Chen Hao from head to toe before turning her head away.

"Yes, I am. Is there something I can help you with?"

Chen Hao had not stepped out from the sadness, so he just replied nonchalantly.

"I was watching you for quite some time; you look like you have a lot on your mind. Why does a young, handsome man like you have so many worries? We will be passing by an island in South Yue, and we wil have to make a stop there later on. Our friends told us that a banquet is being held there. I'd like to invite everyone on the ship to join the banquet. That way, everyone will have a partner!"

The girl in the ponytail added with a smile, "Hehe, I'm Tian Xiaofan and she is Long Feifei. We have already invited the rest of the passengers onboard!"

"Moreover, the more you are feeling dejected, the more you should go out and get some fresh air. If you continue to be distracted like this, how are you going to accomplish any task?" Tian Xiaofan persuaded Chen Hao.

As soon as she finished talking, Long Feifei gave her a nudge in the arm, as if hinting at Xiaofan that whether he wanted to join them or not was none of their business.

On the other hand, Chen Hao knew that this girl-by the name of Long Feifei-was Long Ye's granddaughter.

After all, heading to Hidden Dragon Island only concerned Chen Hao. He did not want the Dragon Squad's help to head to South Yue and sail in a high-profile manner. Thus, he had to disguise himself. Besides the Xuanyang Palace's experts from the Dragon Squad, there were also several wealthy merchants among the sailing team. Therefore, he had no choice but to lie to them.

Hehe, but come to think of it, Chen Hao was not a commoner. Why would he have the same outlook as these girls?

However, Chen Hao felt comforted by Tian Xiaofan's advice.

Firstly, Chen Hao agreed that he had been feeling depressed and felt the need to get some fresh air.

Secondly, he could seize this opportunity to probe around South Yue's inner circle and get some intel on certain situations.

Thus, Chen Hao nodded upon considering all these factors.

"That's the way! Life should be spontaneous and filled with joy!"

Tian Xiaofan let out a smile.

Soon, the ship docked at a port of an island.

Master Ghost brought Xiao Cangsheng and the rest of the men to prepare for any sort of risks; this was because danger could come at them at any time along their way to Hidden Dragon Island. On the other hand, Chen Hao followed Tian Xiaofan as they stepped off the ship.

"Hey, Xiaofan, Feifei! Over here!"

As soon as the three of them stepped off the ship, a group of youngsters were already waiting at the port, waving their hands at the two girls.

They were the wealthy kids from the other passenger ships.

"Tonight's banquet is about to begin in ten more minutes. We'd better hurry!" said a boy in glasses excitedly.

Right then, there was a tall young man in the group. Apart from Long Feifei, he was the next best-dressed.

He paid no attention whatsoever to the banquet. Instead, his gaze had been fixated on Long Feifei the moment she disembarked the ship before glancing at Chen Hao from head to toe nervously.

In the end, he could not hold it in any longer. He stepped forward and asked, "Who is this guy, Feifei? Why did you guys come down from the ship together?"
