The Heaven Deity's banquet was lively, but it was no longer related to Lin Chen.
After the Fire God distributed the rewards, he no longer spoke with Lin Chen and the others but instead started discussing other topics.
Lin Chen sat quietly, until the banquet was more than halfway through, when the Fire God and Earth God stood up, preparing to leave.
The Fire God glanced at Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, will you come back to the Fire God Hall with me now, or will you come later on your own?"
Lin Chen let out a sigh of relief, cupping his hands in respect, "The situation arose suddenly, so I ask the Fire God to grant me some time to handle matters around me, so I can focus on serving the Fire God without any other entanglements."
The Fire God nodded, "Very well, I'll give you a year to handle your affairs, and use these rewards to enhance your strength, then come to the Fire God Hall to report."
A year?
