Chapter 1069
Hearing this, Matthew quickly returned to his feet and stood beside James.He bowed and implored him humbly, "Dragon King, Emperor, no, Dragon Emperor.The Hendersons have prepared a banquet to celebrate your appointment as the Dragon Emperor.We would be extremely honored if you would grace us with your presence."
"Matthew, are you blatantly trying to bribe me? As the Dragon King of the Southern Plains and the commander of the Red Flame Army, my conduct must set an example for others.As a courtesy to your earnestness, I'll treat it as if you were drunk today and were spouting nonsense in your drunken stupor.If you ever do such a thing again, I’m sure you’re already aware of the consequences that follow."
James narrowed his eyes as he let his warning hang over Matthew.
Matthew's face was dripping with sweat from the fear he felt.
James gradually made his way through the sea of rich and influential people.
The other wealthy figures enthusiastically greeted him one after another.
Some even brought their daughters to introduce them to James.
"Emperor, I heard you’ve divorced your wife.This is my daughter.She’s 22 years old and is a graduate student at Capital University.She’s never had a boyfriend before and is definitely a virgin!"
A middle-aged man introduced his daughter eagerly, and the young woman beside him meekly lowered her head.
James cast a glance at the woman and said derisively, "Okay.My mansion lacks a cleaner.She can sweep the floors in the mansion from now on."
He did not refuse the middle-aged man’s offer and chose to respond outrageously.
Knowing that many big shots were watching, he deliberately acted vainly so that people would let their guard down.
This was his only chance to leave an impression of his personality.He wanted them to underestimate him.
"What're you doing, Lisa? Hurry up and thank the Emperor."
The middle-aged man pulled the arm of the woman beside him.
The woman came to her senses and immediately said, "Thank you, Emperor."
"Alright.Everyone should disperse from here right now.I’m heading to the Red Flame Army base.I’ll be holding the succession ceremony in the military region and I invite all of you guys to watch."
James waved farewell with a smile and got into a military vehicle, leaving under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
