Chapter 132: The Banquet That Shocked Great Britain

"Fuck, what happened ahead?"

"I don't know, the Tower Bridge in London is actually closed, this is incredible!"

"Has anyone reported this to the higher-ups? Those who take this path are not ordinary families!"

"Feedback? Haha!"

At this moment, in the Westminster area, hundreds of modern and luxurious vintage cars were parked on the side of the road, staring blankly at the traffic jam ahead and the guards who were still coming in an endless stream.

However, no matter how these people reported back, the message they received was the same - no passage allowed.

This situation left everyone dumbfounded.

But soon, there was a burst of noise from behind the London Bridge. The royal guards riding tall horses drove the pedestrians to one side, and guards blocked both sides of the road.

Anyone who knows something about the upper echelons of the British Empire can clearly see Count Josoda sitting on his tall horse with a serious expression on his face.

"Captain Earl, wow, it turns out someone of high status is coming?"

"No matter how noble you are, you can't block the London Bridge, right?"

Some people complained in astonishment.

"That's an earl. How many earls are there in the British Empire? Boy, the identity of the person coming here is probably beyond our imagination!"

Ignoring the noise of these small nobles and wealthy businessmen, their vehicles were driven aside at the scolding of the guards. Looking at the car that was being protected by the royal guards riding on tall horses, everyone looked over, trying to catch a glimpse of the person coming.

Most people who knew something about Joe Soda were very curious about who he was that he needed an earl to lead the team and block the London Bridge.

This is the first time that this has been heard in the current British Empire.

After all, now the British Empire is famous all over the world and is the world's number one power. Only the United States next door can be compared with it.

At this moment, Lin Jue, who was sitting in the carriage, was resting with his eyes closed, looking at the royal guards sitting on three white horses in front of him. This was his first time experiencing the feeling of a horse-drawn carriage.

Unexpectedly, the carriage was smoother than he had imagined.

The discussions of the people around him were like the buzzing of flies, reaching his ears. With his extraordinary hearing, he could clearly hear the whispers of the crowd hundreds of meters away.

"Oh, these arrogant guys will soon find out that there will be an Asian face standing above their countless white people!"

Lin Jue thought secretly in his heart.

Those people's words were full of pride for the British Empire, but Lin Jue couldn't help but sneer. He had not forgotten how these guys got their honor.

Through colonial expansion, relying on the development of superior weapons such as muskets and artillery shells, they constantly suppressed those whose weapons were inferior to theirs, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of atrocities. By plundering the wealth of the colonies, they became a world power at that time.

In short, no different from a robber.

Such a grand itinerary lasted nearly three hours before the luxury convoy arrived at the gate of Buckingham Palace.

With Qiao Soda's respectful greeting, Lin Jue adjusted his exquisite tailor-made clothes.

He wore a crimson velvet coat and a top hat with four strips of sable on it. His crown had a gold ring decorated with eight red gold leaves.

The red velvet coat is inlaid with colorful gems with golden chains and the buckles are interlocked, giving this outfit an extremely elegant and luxurious feeling.

Lin Jue estimated that this dress would cost one million euros. In this era, it is considered a top-notch dress!
Looking at the old man who was striding towards him with a smile on his face, Lin Jue looked at the many men and women in aristocratic dresses behind him and guessed that this was the King of England at that moment.

Different from the group of royal nobles who took the initiative to greet them, there were some other barons and viscounts standing nearby. They were unaware of the situation and had shocked expressions on their faces. They also seemed hesitant and did not dare to come over.

This group of people who usually acted arrogantly felt inferior to Lin Jue, who needed the king to personally greet him. It was not their fault. It was the first time they had seen the king personally greet them with a group of princes, dukes and earls. Even when they met the heads of state of the United States at that time, the generals did not let them treat them so warmly.

"Grand Duke Yongye, I have finally got you here."

Lin Jue pushed away the somewhat old hand without hesitation, with a smile on his face, but without any intention of saluting. However, the King of England in front of him did not look angry even though his hand was slapped away.

Led by a crowd of people with different expressions, Lin Jue was introduced into Buckingham Palace.

When you enter the Han Palace, you will see servants and guards wearing uniform clothes everywhere, wandering around and providing services. The first thing you see is a row of long tables.

This was obviously the banquet hall, but Lin Jue's first destination was not here.

He followed this group of nobles to a larger church. Looking at the church staff standing at the head of the church with a cross in one hand and a Bible in the other, an inexplicable smile appeared on his face. He glanced at the King of England beside him who seemed to have no idea that anything was wrong.

The awarding ceremony was held in the presence of many royal relatives and nobles. Lin Jue took the Bible and the cross with a calm expression. Listening to the chanting of a man who was obviously an archbishop, Lin Jue looked at him with a smile on his face.

Big beads of sweat oozed out of the cardinal's forehead and his face was extremely stiff. He felt an unimaginable aura of terror enveloping himself, and his heart was beating violently and uncontrollably. Not only him, but also the King of England and the nobles sitting below turned pale one by one.

Seeing the current situation, how could they not understand it as they thought they knew the truth? Some even secretly thought that they were in trouble. No one expected that Lin Jue, who looked like a devil, was not afraid of the holy words and the cross of the Holy See at all.

It seems that all the ancient legends are false!

And now Lin Jue, who seemed to be angry and released his aura, made these pampered guys experience what real fear was. It was a feeling of facing an extremely terrifying existence, like the gaze of a top predator.

The nobles who wanted to test Lin Jue were all pale and extremely panicked. They looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Damn it! Didn't they say that guy was a vampire or a demon?"

A prince murmured with some resentment. He did not hide his words, but a group of people around him who were of the same status as him tried hard to remain calm and did not care at all about the direction of things.

"It seems that we can't show our power now. We still have a lot to lose. This guy is said to have asked for a lot of benefits from Germany. In the castle given to him by His Majesty the King of England, there is a lot of gold and silver piled up. He is a real vampire, in the literal sense!"

"Okay, putting that aside, the elixir of life is real. Some of our old friends in the German Empire have benefited a lot from it. I was shocked when I saw it, and now they have all come to our British Empire."

"I hope this guy doesn't hold a grudge. I always have a bad feeling about this."

Lin Jue looked at the group of princes and nobles who were whispering in the audience. He knew that these people thought that he, who was standing on the podium, could not hear what they said, and their thinking was still limited to that of normal people.

As the ceremony came to an end, Lin Jue handed a brocade box to His Majesty the King of England, whose smile was as bright as a chrysanthemum. After his enthusiastic introduction, he came before a group of princes and nobles.

"Congratulations, Grand Duke Yongye. You can be said to be the first Asian Grand Duke in our British Empire. No, you can even be the first Asian noble. This is truly unprecedented and will never be surpassed."

A younger-looking man dressed in gorgeous clothes said in a subtle tone.

However, the expected response did not come, and his face darkened.

Lin Jue didn't even bother to look at this hermaphrodite, and just chatted and laughed with the nobles who came to greet him on the other side.

He had a grim expression on his face as he looked at the other nobles around him who were smiling and constantly praising Lin Jue. He clenched his fists. This was the first time he had been treated with such contempt.

"Hey, young man, don't be so proud. If you anger this man, even if you are a young earl, you can't bear his anger."

Qiao Soda's voice was sonorous and powerful. After he finished speaking, he ignored the younger generation in front of him who was turning pale and greeted Lin Jue with a respectful look on his face.

As an earl, he naturally had to wait for the princes and dukes to finish their transactions before going on stage, otherwise he would be considered ignorant of etiquette.

Of course, compared to that group of big guys, he is already considered good among the earls. After all, there was an earl who was unaware of the truth standing there to serve as a foil.

This made him feel proud and honored.
