Chapter 453 - 453 All Alone
453 All Alone
Lastly, there was the Human Emperor’s seal!
This was not a card, and Lin Xuan could not see its specific attributes. He could only feel that there was an inexplicable relationship between him and the seal.
That’s right, this seal was the one he had made with the five-colored stones. It was actually just an ordinary stone of five colors and did not possess any extraordinary concept. Now, this seal had been reborn, and it was wrapped with a strong aura of merit.
As everyone knew, merit treasures had two great effects. The first was to kill without getting bad credit, and the second was to suppress the luck of a large sector. Lin Xuan played with it for a while and put it away. Although the Human Emperor’s seal was a merit treasure, it was also a holy treasure, so it was exceptionally suitable for Lin Xuan to use.
Apparently, this thing needed to be nurtured. The more it was nurtured, the stronger the effect would be.
After taking stock of all his gains, Lin Xuan had a good sleep. This was much more comfortable than in the Xia Dynasty.
The next morning, Lin Xuan got up early and headed straight for Mount Tai. He was in a rush. First, he had to finish up the plan for Xiaori Country. It would probably start in three to four months, and this would last for two to three months. In other words, he would only be able to return to the wilderness world dungeon after at least half a year.
Lin Xuan did a rough calculation and assumed this would be the timing for everything.
Of course, the three to four months in between was not because things needed to be prepared, but because he had to attend the national wedding ceremony!
Taixia had specially arranged this time in consideration of Lin Xuan’s future. It was really considerate.
In these three to four months, Lin Xuan had not only attended the national wedding, but also the earth-rank celebration.
Earth-rank festivals were usually not without honor. Earth-rank festivals were usually the most beautiful events of the year. However, this year, as Lin Xuan had postponed his earth-rank festivals, the other newly-promoted earth-rank powerhouses also followed suit and postponed theirs. Therefore, Taixia ended up putting everyone’s earth-rank festivals together.
It changed from a one-person party to a group party. Everyone quickly agreed to it. Whether it was Human Emperor Lin Xuan, Martial Master Qin Fen, or Zhang Ningtian, they were all well-known figures. Some people might know them, but there were a few who had only heard of them but had never met them. This time, they could get to know them.
This was also form of networking.
Lin Xuan felt that it was going to be a little awkward. Although he was not very willing in his heart, there was no other way. He was the most troublesome person in this group, and the earth-rank celebration had become a part of it.
He had no choice.
The wedding was so big it directly overshadowed the earth-rank festival that was held once in a few years. It was the first wedding in the past 300 years. Additionally, it was the wedding of the top powerhouses from Taixia Country. Even the neighboring countries like Eagle Country were shocked and dumbfounded!
Soon after, they realized that this was a very good opportunity. That person had been imprisoned for too long, and they had been missing the bloodline for a long time. They needed this expert!
For a time, because of the news of the Bright Phoenix’s marriage, countless conspiracies were constantly being staged. There were even many rats in the gutter jumping up and down, a storm was coming, and the clouds were treacherous.
The sun was shining brightly on Mount Tai in the Western Capital, and the breeze was just right. Lin Xuan and Zhu Mingmei held hands as they strolled around and looked at the myriad forms of the world.
All they saw was the beautiful scenery. They were unaware of the conspiracies outside the world, or perhaps they didn’t care about it.
“Haven’t you seen enough of the scenery here?”
Looking at Zhu Mingmei’s gentle smile, it was as if her domineering and coquettish demeanor had disappeared. However, Lin Xuan had to admit that he liked her even more now.
“The world’s scenery is ever-changing, just like my heart. In the past, I was alone, but now I can walk alongside someone. With a different state of mind, the scenery I see will naturally be different!”
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow and shrugged. Zhu Mingmei shook her head and then nodded. That was not what she wanted to express, but it was more important that Lin Xuan was able to gain and understand something!
“Our marriage was arranged by Taixia Country. However, you and I have the right to refuse it. Before we get married, I want to ask you seriously, are you really willing to marry me?”
Lin Xuan looked at Zhu Mingmei seriously. To be honest, he was really a sc*mbag for saying that. He had already done so many things to her, but he still wanted to ask if she was serious.
In fact, they were forced to do that for the sake of Taixia Country…
If Zhu Mingmei was not willing, then Lin Xuan would keep his distance from her in the future. He would not take the initiative, take responsibility, or reject her!
Zhu Mingmei looked at Lin Xuan indifferently. A hint of red actually appeared on the face of the mature woman.
“I never expected to be able to decide on my marriage, but accidents often come without warning. The Ming Dynasty is coming to an end, and I got a new life… But even if I’m invincible among the earth-ranks… I still wanted someone to love!
“Three hundred years ago, I would have fought back. Three hundred years later, I now look forward to it. If you ask me why, I think this might be the necessary result of being in the royal family for a long time. Therefore, there’s no Emperor in Taixia Country after me!”
Zhu Mingmei’s smile was very bright and beautiful. A crystal-like tear rolled down from the corner of her long and narrow eye, sliding across the mole at the corner of her eye. It made people feel pity for her.
“I know, you’re mine from now on…!”
Lin Xuan’s heart ached as he pulled the little woman who had suppressed the world by herself. She was just a little girl when she witnessed her father’s death, her mother’s suicide, her siblings being destroyed, and in the end, she was the only one left.
With hatred and decisiveness, she rose up in ranks and conquered the nine provinces of Taixia Country in only a few years. She was praised by everyone and called the Immortal Emperor at one point!
