Chapter 2013
Clenching her fists, Zhang Xiaoyu growled indignantly, “It can't be! He's only an Average Joe fromChina without a prominent background and qualifications. How could he deserve the President of Indiato hold a formal banquet for him? That's impossible!”
She was still keeping her fingers crossed at the moment, hoping that Ye Fan had actually made amistake and emerged uninvited.
Other than her, there was also sheer disbelief in the eyes of the three princes.
“It must be a mistake!”
“Something must have gone wrong!”
“Anyway, that brat is too young. He's only a typical naive punk.”
“How could he be the guest of honor for this banquet today?”
Flustered, Prince Duo Li and the other two princes glowered at Ye Fan menacingly.
Never had they expected a mind-numbing event would come hard on the heels of that, shattering theirhope.
The moment Ye Fan came into sight, King Folo, the President of India, and the others sitting high got totheir feet to welcome him. The President of India greeted him respectfully, “Mr. Chu, please be seated.”
“Mr. Chu, please be seated!” King Folo and the others greeted Ye Fan in unison as well.
Even the leader of a nation was in reverence of the latter.
In a split second, Zhang Xiaoyu, Prince Duo Li, and the other two princes were dumbstruck. Their eyeswidened in disbelief; their minds went blank completely.
My goodness! Who had we provoked just now? At the thought, Prince Duo Li was scared to death. Hislegs gave way, and he slumped to the ground.
Stood rooted to the ground, his elder brother could not utter any words.
Prince Savanth's fists were clenched so hard that they began to bleed as he scowled at Ye Fan withfiery eyes. It was as though there were burning flames in them.
Why is that so? Why is he the one? Both of us are around the same age. Why could he be seated withthe elders in the royal families and greeted respectfully by them? On the other hand, I can only sit inthe corner and watch enviously. Why is he deserving of all these?
Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaoyu's face turned ashen. She looked ahead blankly, gawking at Ye Fan's slenderfigure as if she had lost herself. Not only that, she suddenly felt a rush of inexplicit bitterness surgingfrom within her.
Only then did Zhang Xiaoyu realize that her grandpa did not lie to her. It's true. Whatever Grandpamentioned in the letter is true. If I can marry this man, it will be as easy as snapping a finger for me tolead a comfortable life.
Ye Fan was oblivious to Zhang Xiaoyu and the others' reactions. After all, they were merely small friesto him.
Ye Fan was unfazed by most people and things at his current level. It was as though an elephant wasunperturbed by any crickets and ants.
Noa was the only one Ye Fan cared about in the spacious hall at the moment.
The young lady was self-aware that she was only a lowly nobody alongside Ye Fan. Hence, she movedaway from the latter instinctively when the influential figures of India greeted him with reverence.
Standing aside obediently, she looked up at the man basking in the limelight silently like the otherguests.
Ye Fan caught a glimpse of Noa moving away from him. He turned and chuckled before teasing her,“Hey! Noa, how could you leave me alone after bringing me here?”
Noa was stunned.
Right that instant, everyone's eyes were on Ye Fan. When those words escaped his mouth, it indirectlycaused everyone to lock their gazes on Noa.
“Ye Fan, go up by yourself then. They are all big shots, and there's not even a place for me. Thus, it'sgood enough for a lowly junior like me to be seated down here,” Noa whispered to him.
No doubt, as the head of a prominent family, she was categorized as one of them from a prestigiousstatus.
Notwithstanding, her status was a stark contrast to the President of India and the others from FoloPalace.
Now that all the big shots invited Ye Fan to step forward and be seated with them, Noa knew well thatshe was not qualified to join him. Thus, she did not accompany him to sit at the highest spot.
Flashing him a smile, she uttered casually, “I'll go down now and continue to look on attentively.”
Next, she turned to make her way into the crowd.
Nonetheless, it never occurred to her that Ye Fan would stop her right away. She had only turnedbefore a hand stretched out to grab hold of her wrist.
Petrified, she felt a massive force pulling her to Ye Fan's side again.
The latter lowered his head to look intently at her. It was as though countless stars were glittering in hisobsidian eyes.
“Noa, why are you feeling inferior? Bear in mind that there'll always be a place for you beside me nomatter where I go.” Ye Fan chuckled blissfully in the face of the other guests.
Before Noa had time to respond, he held her hand and moved upwards while the others looked on withreverence. It was as if the duo was heading toward the highest point that symbolized the prominence ofIndia.
“Mr. Chu, you're incredibly unrivaled and deemed the top-notch hero with your formidability! The martialarts world of India has been revering invincible fighters and heroes all this while. Ever since youstepped into our land, our people have been in awe of your formidability. Allow me to bestow you with adukedom on behalf of India today. I sincerely hope that you won't turn me down on that. Mr. Chu, whatdo you think about it?” The President of India plastered a smile to butter Ye Fan up.
Hearing that, all the other guests couldn't help but feel their jaws dropping to the ground. They couldn'tbelieve that their nation's leader was pleading with Ye Fan to accept the dukedom. D*mn it! What theheck is happening?
Many risked their lives and even met their end tragically on the battlefield throughout the years,yearning for a royal title.
Nevertheless, the royal leader of India even swallowed his pride and pled with Ye Fan to accept thedukedom at the moment.
Unequivocally, things in the world were unfathomable a lot of times. Many failed to obtain what theyhad been anticipating. On the contrary, those who never had such anticipation were pled to accept theoffer instead.
Ye Fan only replied to the leader of India placidly, “Okay!”
The latter was over the moon. He assigned his men to bring Ye Fan the respective gold seal andcostume for the title at once.
At the same time, he announced to grant Chu Tianfan the title—King Narendra.
Apart from that, he would be bestowed with ten thousand hectares of land, the right to collect taxesfrom the people, and the hereditary right of the dukedom.
Everyone was flabbergasted.
King Narendra? Ten thousand hectares of land? The right to collect taxes? Good gracious! How couldhe deserve such privilege? That's indeed outrageously absurd!
In actuality, the dukedom was more like a title of honor recently. Others usually received it in the nameonly without obtaining any benefits.
It never occurred to them that Ye Fan would be given lands and the right to collect taxes from thepeople. In other words, he even had the authority to build a kingdom.
Many could not help but feel Ye Fan had taken advantage of a great deal.
Even so, the President of India did not share the same sentiments with them. King Folo and the othersfelt that it was beneficial for the nation too.
Furthermore, King Folo had tried to convince the President of India before. “Chu Tianfan is undoubtedlyan invincible warrior! He's able to destroy all the countries effortlessly by himself! If he's with us, I'mconvinced nobody will be a match for our martial arts world for at least half a millennium. War GodCastle is currently in a precarious state and might be eradicated at any moment because they are
unaware of it. Hence, we must be enlightened by that and talk Ye Fan into taking our side! Even if wecan't be friends, we shouldn't take the risk of being his foe!”
When the banquet was about to end, the President of India led all the members of the royal families totoast Ye fan. “Mr. Chu, I know that you're leaving soon. Thus, I hold this state banquet as a token offarewell for you! Everyone, raise your wine glasses. I'd like to propose to toast to Mr. and Mrs. Chu fortheir safe journey ahead!”
There was somehow a hidden meaning in his words. He was seemingly hinting Ye Fan to leave at onceafter the banquet.
Undeniably, they were in awe of Ye Fan's ability to keep situations under control with his formidabilityduring the war.
Now that there was peace in India, he became a time bomb instead. Therefore, King Folo and theothers could barely wait for him to leave their country.
