In Liang Zhu City, the non-humankind emperors were enraged by the message sent back by the expeditionary force from the new world.
But in Pu Ban City, everyone was wearing a happy face. Walking on the streets, ordinary people were walking with strong steps, with bright smiles on their faces.
Along with a series of tinkling noises, Pu Ban City was filled with busy people, and everyone was busy with their work with smiles on their faces. Foundations were dug, pillars were planted, walls were built, roofs were covered with thatches. Many houses were destroyed by the heavy rain earlier. At the moment, people were busy rebuilding their homes.
Groups of Maguspriests in black robes walked slowly on the ground of Pu Ban City in long and orderly lines. They had been waving long streamers while incanting spells to ward off evil and pray for good fortune. Wherever these Maguspriests walked past, colorful airstreams would spurt out from the soft mud, being absorbed by the long streamers.
All kinds of toxins brought by the rain were dispelled by Maguspriests in black robes sent out by the Magi Palace. Some Maguspriests who cultivated themselves with a nature of earth power cast magics to restore the soil, making the hardened soil as fertile as before.
Everyone was busy, full of enthusiasm and hope.
From time to time, voices like this could be heard from the busy crowds.
"You Chong Clan and Tushan Family will unite by marriage, what a beautiful girl and a hero!"
"Isn't that right? Only a beautiful woman like her can match a man like Lord Si Wen Ming!"
"Haha, I've seen Tushan Princess with my own eyes. She looks just like a legendary goddess," said Ji Hao while clicking his tongue.
"Eh? As if you've seen a goddess. But, Tushan Princess is truly beautiful. Only a man like Lord Si Wen Ming can match a woman like her, can't he? "
Without a doubt, people at the bottom of the society were simple and honest.
Si Xi had just stopped the storm with the ten-thousand dragons water-sealing magic formation, and saved countless people's lives. Therefore, everyone was thinking about what he had done for them. Si Wen Ming had always been the leader of the Magi Palace. Under his leadership, the influence of the Magi Palace had been growing day by day. The humankind had gained tangible benefits from it, and many people were grateful to him.
In the eyes of ordinary people, a heroic man like Si Wen Ming should marry a beautiful woman who could match him, live happily with him from then on, and have a bunch of chubby kids. Only this could fit the simple and beautiful vision of ordinary people.
However, on the streets of Pu Ban City, those human clan leaders, who had been directing their people to rebuild their homes, felt much more complicated than before.
Si Xi had a great reputation, but so did Si Wen Ming, who had made countless contributions to the society. You Chong Clan was also a top-grade large human clan, and was a branch of Emperor Xuan Yuan's bloodline. Therefore, You Chong Clan had a great bloodline.
Tushan Family wasn't well-known among human beings, but among human leaders, who didn't know that Tushan Family was as wealthy as the dragon-kind and the phoenix-kind? It was said that the Tushan Family had a close relationship with the nine-tailed sky foxes. They inherited the wisdom and cunningness of sky foxes, and no human clan could compete with them in business.
Through countless years of accumulation, Tushan Family was unimaginably wealthy. But more importantly, Tushan Family had their own forge, and the armors and weapons produced by them were of decent quality.
More importantly, after Tushan old man and Ji Hao cooperated, the Xiu Clan master craftsmen Ji Hao brought back from the non-humankind had given Tushan Family craftsmen some guidance. As a result, the armors and weapons produced by Tushan Family people were far better than before.
Tushan Family people had nearly inexhaustible financial resources, and had their own mine and forge, which meant an endless supply of armors and weapons. Armors and weapons produced by Tushan Family people were even better than the ones produced by the current humankind.
Si Xi and Si Wen Ming, father and son, had a top-grade large clan of their own. They had excellent connections, and many top-grade clans were Si Wen Ming's supporters. These top-grade clans never lacked brave warriors, but all of them lacked strong armors and sharp weapons!
The marriage between Si Wen Ming and Tushan Princess meant the marriage of countless strong warriors and top-grade armors!
The impact of this was too great. A well-equipped, heavily-armored warrior with a sharp blade in his hand could kill at least five warriors of similar strength, but with crude armor and crude weapons. This was a fact that had been proven through actual combat.
"Marquis Chong Si Xi has just made a great contribution!"
"Isn't that so? No one can compare to the fame of this father and son pair now."
"Hm, if Gong Gong Wuyou and Zhu Rong Tianming were still alive, perhaps …"
"Why are you talking about those two useless things? All in all, after the marriage between You Chong Clan and Tushan Family, those kids pushed out by those clans to compete for the throne will have a hard time. "
Similar conversations could be heard in every corner of Pu Ban City. People who were close to Si Wen Ming were surely happy, even walking happily. People who were neutral had nothing to do with this, and had been waiting to watch the marriage between You Chong Clan and Tushan Family all the time. As for those who were not on good terms with Si Wen Ming, they had been running around in panic all day long, and no one knew what they were doing.
In Tushan Family's palace in Pu Ban City, Tushan Princess, who was wearing a white silk dress and a crimson long dress, sat straight on a large chair. She rested her hands on her knees, slightly lowered her head, and remained silent.
Naturally, she was extremely beautiful. More importantly, the temperament she exuded was like a warm and clear jewel. There was a faint layer of strange radiance surrounding her body. Every strand of her hair, every subtle movement, was expressing a kind of 'demure', 'virtuous', and could be said to be 'perfect'.
Si Wen Ming sat in front of Tushan Princess a bit uncomfortably. From time to time, he raised his head and glanced at Tushan Princess, then turned around and glanced at the few elders sitting in the upper seats.
Emperor Shun and a few elders were sitting in the upper seats. They were invited here to be witnesses.
Si Xi and Tushan old man sat on both sides. Si Xi was smiling, while Tushan old man couldn't even close his mouth.
Si Wen Ming's face twitched. He glanced at Tushan Princess's beautiful face, then awkwardly shifted his body in the chair, as if a fire was burning his butt.
According to Si Xi's suggestion, the humankind was still under the threat of the flood. Therefore, the marriage between Tushan Princess and Tushan Princess shouldn't be held in a big way. Instead, a few highly respected elders should be invited to be witnesses, and a simple, small-scale celebration would be enough.
Tushan old man agreed to Si Xi's suggestion. Today was the day of the marriage between Tushan Family and Tushan Family.
Si Wen Ming was usually straightforward and straightforward, but today, he was so shy and hesitant. He didn't even know what he was feeling right now.
Outside the room, Man Man held Yemo Shanye's hand and sneakily stood by the door, tilting their heads to peek at Tushan Princess, whose face was blushing.
Looking at Tushan Princess for a while, Yemo Shanye chuckled and said, "Uncle Si Wen Ming is shy, hehe, so interesting!"
Man Man generously slapped on Yemo Shanye's butt and said, "Let's see if you'll be shy when you get married!"
Followed by a loud slap, Yemo Shanye almost leaped up from her seat. She popped out her eyes and stared at Man Man.
Man Man looked at Yemo Shanye as if nothing had happened. As they prepared to fight, a voice that was almost filled with hatred came from a distance away.
"Tushan Princess … I'm so in love with you, but you're getting married today?"
