A trace of bitterness appeared on the corner of Lin Qing's mouth. She raised her head and looked at Lin Baichuan, his wife and Lin Qianyu.
"Let's go."
Lin Baichuan's wife, Lin Luan, rushed forward and supported Lin Qing. Lin Qianyu also walked over in a daze. He didn't look at Ji Dong anymore. When the Dragon Emperor appeared, he realized that there was a huge gap between him and Ji Dong. It was an insurmountable gap.
Nine golden-red lights rose up from the Absolute Love Poppy and turned into nine dazzling streams of light that went into Ji Dong's body. When they went into his body, Ji Dong felt the warmth as if he was digging a Flaming Bar. At that moment, his heart couldn't help but be moved.
The magicians and guards of the Dongmu Empire who were surrounding the Martial Arts Practice Field slowly made a path for the Lin family. Seeing the Lin family leaving, the Hell Tree also withered as the magic disappeared from Lin Qing's body. It turned into a light black color and disappeared into the ground. Obviously, the Absolute Love Poppy could only increase its power for a limited time. As for whether this strange plant was still alive or not, Ji Dong didn't know.
Seeing the Lin Family leave, Ji Dong's body couldn't help but sway. He raised his hand to support the dragon horn on his head to stabilize his body. Today's hearty battle had finally ended. It could be said that this was a narrow escape from death, but at the same time, it was a near-perfect experience.
This kind of experience was undoubtedly great for improving one's power. But at this moment, Ji Dong decided that he couldn't put himself in such a dangerous situation anymore. The reason was simple. It was the name that the Dragon Emperor used to introduce him — Heavenly Stem Saint King.
Right now, he was no longer representing himself. Instead, he was representing the entire Heavenly Stem Saints. There were too many things waiting for him to do. If he were to take risks and something happened to him, then all the Heavenly Stem Saints would be affected. Even the Holy War three years later would be affected.
Huo 'er seemed to have taken a liking to silently cultivating in the Vermillion Bird Bracelet. Seeing that everything was over, it soared into the air and transformed into a golden stream of light. In the blink of an eye, it had already merged into Ji Dong's Vermillion Bird Bracelet and disappeared.
The dragon egg, Si Dong, moved slightly on the Maotai. With the help of the eggshell, it went into Ji Dong's arms and found a comfortable position.
Gently touching Si Dong's eggshell, Ji Dong couldn't help smiling. Today, it was all thanks to this little guy. If it didn't act in time, of course it would be a big trouble. But he didn't expect that Si Dong was strong enough to of a Saint King's attack. That of a Saint King's defense was really great!
A faint light flashed and Ji Dong smiled. Looking at Si Dong in his arms, he thought that Si Xuan's choice was probably the right one. Si Dong was still a dragon egg, but it was already so strong and could speak. Then, if it hatched, it would probably be as strong as a Tenth Level Magical Beast.
The Godly Flame Saint King Armor was quietly removed. Relying on the soul fusion, Ji Dong also controlled the Eternal Armor to remove it. He pulled the unconscious Chen Sixuan into his arms. Then, he jumped up and spread his wings. Carrying Chen Sixuan, he glided to the front of the Emperor of Dongmu Empire, Chen Xiaofeng.
From the appearance of the Dragon Emperor, to the exhaustion of Lin Qing's magic power, to the departure of the Lin family, until now, the entire audience was silent.
Everyone who watched the entire battle looked at Ji Dong with a dull gaze. It was not something that could be explained with the word "worship".
The unconscious Empress had not woken up yet. Chen Xiaofeng's face was as ugly as a sheet of gold. In his entire life, he had never experienced such ups and downs like today.
"Your Majesty, for today's matter, I can only apologize to you." Ji Dong carried Chen Sixuan and bowed slightly to Chen Xiaofeng.
Chen Xiaofeng's Adam's apple moved. He was too stunned to say anything. The bodyguard standing beside him quickly stepped forward and gently patted his back. Only then did he calm down.
Chen Xiaofeng's gaze became extremely complicated. Looking at Ji Dong, he did not know what to say. The appearance of this young man could be said to have affected the entire Dongmu Empire. It was not an exaggeration to say that it affected the future of the Dongmu Empire.
"This matter cannot be completely blamed on you. We also have a lot of responsibility." With great difficulty, Chen Xiaofeng squeezed out these words from his mouth.
Things had already developed to this extent. He was afraid that the Lin family could not be saved. As the Emperor, the only thing he could do now was to suppress all his emotions and try his best to have a good relationship with this young man who had a limitless future.
Ji Dong indifferently smiled and said: "Since Your Majesty does not blame me, then it is the best. The Dongmu Empire is close to the East China Sea. Once the Holy War starts, the East China Sea Coast will be the place where the Holy War will start. I ask Your Majesty to make early preparations."
Chen Xiaofeng took a few deep breaths and finally calmed himself down. After all, he was an Emperor of a generation. He was experienced and knowledgeable. After adjusting his mood, his expression became a lot more natural. He said: "Ji Dong, do you still call me Your Majesty?"
Ji Dong was stunned for a moment and said: "If not Your Majesty, then what should I call you?"
Chen Xiaofeng heard this sentence and almost rolled his eyes. His daughter was snatched away by you. He came alone to the Imperial Palace to kidnap the bride. Now, he became a blockhead. Could it be that his talent was only reflected in his fighting strength?
"Call me father-in-law." Chen Sixuan's voice suddenly appeared in Ji Dong's mind. When Ji Dong looked down, he found that Chen Sixuan had slowly opened her eyes. However, her whole body still looked weak and powerless.
"Father … father-in-law …" Ji Dong murmured and repeated Chen Sixuan's words in his soul.
"That's right." Chen Xiaofeng let out a long breath. His face suddenly showed a smile and said: "Ji Dong, you really gave us a big surprise today!"
Ji Dong raised his head and looked at Chen Xiaofeng. He couldn't help but be speechless. He wanted to tell the Emperor of Dongmu Empire that he didn't call him father-in-law. He was just repeating it. But, thinking that the matter was finally solved and he was about to get the seventh bottle of wine, he endured it. Anyway, he knew in his heart that he wasn't calling him father-in-law.
Chen Xiaofeng squeezed out a kind smile on his face. "Well, no matter what, the engagement with the Lin family has been canceled. Today, you have shown in front of all of us that you are willing to give up everything for Sixuan, and you have enough strength. So, when do you plan to marry Sixuan?"
"Ah? Marry? " Ji Dong was stunned. He almost let go of Chen Sixuan's hand and said: "It's a bit too early. We are still young."
"I'm not young anymore. When I was your age, I already had several sons." Chen Xiaofeng quickly said. If he wanted to help this young man with a promising future, he naturally had to get the rice cooked as soon as possible. In the future, Dongmu Empire would have someone to rely on.
Ji Dong smiled bitterly. He lowered his head to look at Chen Sixuan. But who knew that Chen Sixuan had already closed her eyes. Ji Dong could clearly feel that she didn't faint again.
"Your Majesty, I'll call you Your Majesty first. This matter is too sudden. We can't be too hasty. I have made up my mind that before we eliminate the enemies and end the holy war between light and darkness, I will not get married." Ji Dong said resolutely.
Chen Xiaofeng frowned and said: "Sixuan is a big girl. If she gets together with you without any status, won't people gossip about her? It's fine if she doesn't get married, but at least she needs to get engaged first. "
Looking at Chen Xiaofeng's eager eyes, Ji Dong was speechless. If it wasn't for the seventh bottle of wine, he would have already flown away with Chen Sixuan.
His right hand grabbed Chen Sixuan's waist and put her down on the ground. He helped her stand up and said to Chen Sixuan through his soul: "Quickly solve your father's problem. We will leave after we get the wine."
Chen Sixuan opened her eyes and looked at Ji Dong with resentment. She said to Chen Xiaofeng: "Father, we can talk about the engagement later. You can rest assured. With me and Ji Dong here, no one can harm our Dongmu Empire. I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, your daughter knows what to do. No matter what, I will always be the Dongmu Empire's princess!"
"But …" Chen Xiaofeng hesitated.
Chen Sixuan smiled faintly and looked up at Ji Dong. Her eyes were filled with tenderness as she said: "Status isn't that important for us Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples. As long as Ji Dong loves me and I love him, that's enough. Isn't that right, Ji Dong? Tell Father, don't you love me very much? "
While saying that, she looked at Ji Dong with eager eyes. Her heartbeat accelerated at this time.
This was something that Chen Sixuan had planned for a long time. She had brought Ji Dong back to break off the engagement because she wanted to find an opportunity like the one in front of her and use the situation to force Ji Dong to say those three words to her. As long as Ji Dong said it, then they could truly be together. Chen Sixuan had definitely planned this for a long time. Although there had been so many twists and turns before, she had still found such an opportunity in the end.
Everyone's eyes fell on Ji Dong's face, waiting for his answer. Ji Dong looked at Chen Sixuan, who was leaning on him, and then looked at Chen Xiaofeng of the Dongmu Empire in front of him. He angrily said to Chen Sixuan through their souls: "You know that I can't say those words to you. The only person I love is the Flaming Bar. I will only say the word 'love' to her. Why do you want to make things difficult for me?"
Chen Sixuan's expression immediately turned ugly. She wanted nothing more than to pounce on Ji Dong and strangle his neck. She hurriedly sent a soul message to Ji Dong, "I'm only asking you to lie to my royal father for a while. After this, I won't rely on you. Can't you just say something?"
Ji Dong said firmly: "Absolutely not. Is the word 'love' something that can be said casually?"
While he was communicating with Chen Sixuan through their souls, on the surface, he groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, his whole body fell backward. Chen Sixuan grabbed him. Unfortunately, her body was very weak now. As a result, both of them fell to the ground. Ji Dong's eyes closed and he had already "fainted". Chen Sixuan hatefully punched Ji Dong's shoulder.
Chen Sixuan hatefully hammered Ji Dong's shoulder. This fellow actually used a coma to escape, he was so angry. It seemed that all the plans she had made to bring him back this time were all in vain. She had given him the person, but she couldn't even trick him into saying such a thing. One could imagine how depressed Chen Sixuan was, but of course, she wouldn't really be angry at Ji Dong. Ji Dong only treated Chen Sixuan like this because he loved her. What she really hated was the Evil God who had proposed such conditions to her. If it wasn't for this fellow's abnormal conditions, how could she be in such pain?
Si Dong bounced off Ji Dong's body and returned to Chen Sixuan's embrace. He rolled on her chest as if he was comforting her. In the distance, the Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon had already turned into a stream of light and returned to the Core of Life hanging on Ji Dong's neck. They also needed time to recover their magic.
Chen Xiaofeng was extremely speechless as he returned to the palace. This farce was finally over. Naturally, there would be people escorting Ji Dong and Chen Sixuan back to the palace. Moreover, Chen Xiaofeng specially ordered that the palace's most powerful devil master would escort Ji Dong and Chen Sixuan. It was very likely that he would lose the support of the Lin family. He couldn't lose the support of the tyrant Ji Dong.
Naturally, Ji Dong wouldn't be sent back to Chen Sixuan's palace. Otherwise, where would the royal family's face be? He was sent to a palace not far from Chen Sixuan's palace to rest. Chen Sixuan returned to her own palace.
Only after everyone had left did Ji Dong open his eyes. Recalling everything that had happened before, he couldn't help but secretly sigh. Si Xuan, Si Xuan, no matter what you do, I can't accept your love. I'm sorry.
Although his heart was thinking like this, when he recalled everything that had happened with Chen Sixuan, the softest part of his heart, Gui Cun, was still gently touched.
Raising his right hand, Ji Dong opened his palm. A faint golden-red light flickered, and the Geocentric Red Lotus Seeds leaped out of his palm and floated in the air in front of him.
Looking at the plump and dazzling lotus seeds, Ji Dong's gaze couldn't help but become a little infatuated. Raging Flames, you saved me again today. Although you are no longer by my side, you are still protecting me. I still have to endure such torturous days for so many years, I really want to go find you now. I'm sorry, Raging Flames, I know I was wrong. Although I can't love Chen Sixuan, I can't deny that I like her. I owe her too much, too much, and all of this, I'll return it to her when I'm going to find you. I really don't understand what's so good about me, to be able to make her be so dead set on me. When my soul merged with hers, I could clearly feel that she didn't have the slightest bit of malice towards me. In fact, her perfection made me faintly see your shadow. Perhaps, it's because of this that my resistance towards her is getting lower and lower. But don't worry, I've already found a way, my heart will only love you.
