Chapter 81
Xiao Yu was the most eye-catching guest living the hotel. Actually, all the guests living in the hotel were from upper nobility. Ordinary people werenât qualified to live in such a high-end hotel. However, at the moment it was Xiao Yu who was on the spotlight. It was one thing to have a elf or orc slave but to have them as bodyguards was completely different matter.
Having elves and orcs submit as a guards was the highest symbol for the nobility. Only the most powerful heroes could get their allegiance. It hadnât happened in the last few hundred years or even a millenia. So it was natural to attract attention.
In reality. Xiao Yu had underestimated curiosity of the people. He was focus of chats everywhere he went. The people werenât focused on the baby dragon in Leahâs arms or else he would become more compelling to them.
Xiao Yu found Siwenâs room and asked Leah and Tyrande to accompany her.

âMay I learn Dukeâs name?â
Xiao Yu heard endless people who wanted to open conversation with him to ask for the origin of elf and orcs. He would smile and follow the etiquette of a noble as he talked with the others.
Xiao Yu got back to his room after he dealt with those nobles. Xiao Yu couldnât enjoy the best hotel of this era as he had to lie down to take a nap for a while. He knew that the first âbattleâ was going to happen at night-time.
âYou want to play a rough game then Iâm going to show you guys who is the real rogue and hooligan!â
Sure enough he was informed that a dinner presided by the 3rd son of Duke Simm, Irwin would be held at the hotel in the evening. Duke Simm had to greet the upper echelons of the other territories somehow and it seemed he had decided to use his 3rd son to host the party in his stead.

Xiao Yu was dressed well and had taken Siwen, Tyrande, Leah, Grom and Antonidas as he entered the hall for the banquet.
Siwenâs mother didnât attend because of her illness. It seemed that it was an excuse planned by Wang Tian Hu.
Xiao Yu became focus of the banquet as soon as he appeared in the hall. All the eyes were cast over his body. Xiao Yu had ordered Tyrande to cover her face with a mask. If her face was exposed then the city would get into an uproar!
Although her face was covered bur her identity as an elf was known because of the purple light flashing from her eyes once in a while.
Moreover, she was dressed in a black robe which had bow and arrows.
Nevertheless, Siwen and Leahâs appearance had caused countless eyes focus on them. Xiao Yu had made sure that Leah was wearing a formal dress for the banquet. There was no shortage of clothes because Siwen had brought a lot of them.Xiao Yu had threatened Leah a lot as she protested for a long time. But at the end he was successful by making her wear a formal dress.
Leah looked like a noble and elegant lady after she put on the dress. In addition, her posture was straight and her actions were neat which showed that she was trained since childhood. Xiao Yu didnât know which family Leah belonged but he was aware that she didnât belong to an ordinary household.
There were two beautiful ladies, orc bodyguard, a second-rank mage and an elf guard by his side. People came up one by one to greet Xiao Yu. He calmly dealt with them in a decent manner.
Some of the guests who knew about Xiao Yuâs identity were surprised. Everyone was aware of Xiao Zhan Tianâs name within the Sky Lion Dynasty and they were aware that Lion territory was on decline. However, Xiao Yuâs actions was telling otherwise!
A youth came to stand in front of Xiao Yu: âWelcome to Bengal city dear Duke! I am representing my father Duke Simm.â
Xiao Yu had seen the youth since he entered the hall. He guessed that he was Irwin the 3rd son of Duke Simm.
âI have heard a lot of stories about Grand Marshall Xiao Zhan Tian! He is the hero which I admire a lot! Itâs an honor to meet his son. I believe that your father would be very happy if he knew that you had arrived in here.â Irwin spoke in a courteous manner.
Xiao Yu was afraid that there was hypocrisy behind the polite actions.
After a few more words Irwin turned towards Siwen: âAre you miss Siwen? I had seen your face on magic crystal and couldnât forget since then! I know that your husband has died so I want to take liberty to request you to give me a chance to pursue you. Itâs difficult to control my feelings which I hope you will forgive me for!â
Irwin waved as he spoke and a waiter brought a tray. There was a necklace on top of the tray.
âThis necklace is called âTears of the Goddessâ and I know that you are the only woman worth this necklace. Please allow me to personally put it on you.â
Irwin wanted to move forward to remove the necklace form Siwenâs neck and put Tears of the Goddess.
Xiao Yu had lots of jewerly but it seemed that Tears of Goddess was more precious and rare one. Xiao Yu understood that the youth was a wolf in sheepâs clothing.
âSo you want to get a chance to pursue Siwen⊠Good play, mate! If this king wasnât here with his orcs then would you go through those formalities? I think you would have thrown her into bed long time agoâŠâ Xiao Yu looked at Irwin. The youth wasnât as simple as he looked on surface.
âThanks Sir Irwin but your gift is too expensive and I canât receive it,â Siwen had planned to refuse the marriage proposal so she naturally wasnât interested in the necklace.
Xiao Yu interrupted: âsister-in-law, why do you refuse sir irwinâs gift? Leah come on take the necklace and put in on sister-in-lawâs neck.â
âThis seems like an expensive thing. I will exchange it for gold coins and buy equipment⊠HaHaHaâŠâ Xiao Yu said in his heart.
Irwin was surprised as he didnât expect Xiao Yu talk for Siwen. However, he remembered that Siwen was part of Xiao family and he had right to speak for Siwen.
Leah had lived with Xiao Yu long enough to know his despicable nature. She knew what he was thinking about so she bluntly took the necklace and put it on Siwenâs neck.
Siwen didnât know what was happening but knew that xiao Yu wouldnât hurt her so she let Leah to put the necklace on.
âTears of the Goddess is meant for Miss Siwen. You are simply the goddess of the world!â Irwin tried to praise her.
Xiao Yu pretended to be very serious as he spoke: âVery good! If sir Irwin can get more of this necklaces then please send them to my sister-in-law⊠She has seventy or eighty necklaces so she doesnât have enough to wear on daily basis!â
Irwinâs mouth twitched as he listened to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu saw the angry look on Irwinâs face: âI know that young master Irwin is busy as you have to greet a lot of people. You get back to your business we will be able to handle ourselves.â
Xiao Yu led Siwen and others awya.
âXiao YuâŠI will remember this.â A coldness flashed past Irwinâs eyes as he looked at Xiao Yuâs back.
