Chapter 54 - Visitors (1/2)
Few months have passed since Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, and people somewhat calmed down, instead, everyone is looking forward towards marriage between Jian Feng and Cang Yue which is happening in a few days.
If it was the Old Blue Wind Empire not many Sect would care about such a thing, but now?
When Emperor personally cleared up tens of Sect with bodyguards with cultivation level that people couldn't even comprehend, it terrified them, that effect was multiplied as rumours about Jian Feng power was spreading...
Some saying he is Throne others are saying he is even an Overlord, citizens don't know what to believe anymore...
But they know one thing...
He is strong, and that what they truly care about...
And so days passed and Imperial City slowly started to transform...
As the date of marriage is approaching the Emperor is making sure everything is Perfect...
Of course, no plan is perfect, there is always something...
~~~~~~In one of most expensive Inn's of Blue Wind Capital~~~~~~
”So then my junior brother just rushed at that beast, but out of nowhere is started breathing fire!” One of Earth Profound Cultivators said in storyteller like voice.
”What happened next!?” The other guy said In a serious voice as he was really into this story.
”He, of course, was able to block it, but the Profound beast was too much distracted as my senior brother Jin was able to jump on it's back and sever the head off with his Earth Profound sword...” The storytelling cultivator said with a ċȯċky voice.
”But breath fire huh, I never seen such Profound beast...” The cultivator who was listening leaned back on his chair, while saying that.
”I know Junior Brother, it the flames reminded me about Jian Feng that guy said to have taken Profound beast flames and made them his own...” The storytelling Cultivator said with fascination, he really looks up to him!
”That's what stories tell about him... Pity I couldn't attend the Ranking Tournament, they said it was a complete blowout, and Blue Wind Royal Family dominated the whole tournament and took all top three positions.” the other one said with disappointment written all over his place.
”Yes...same with me Senior Brother, I would love to see those Crimson Flames in action! They say he could wield them like swords! change shapes into animals!” The Storytelling cultivator said with stars in his eyes.
”Ho...Tell me more about this Jian Feng...” A new voice interrupted them, it was arrogant almost as if he owns the whole world...
”And who...Heavens...” Both of their eyes widened in fear as they sensed this arrogant person's cultivation...
~~~~~~Jian Feng~~~~~~
That day has arrived, never thought before that I will be doing this...
Robes of a guy who is about to marry a Princess...
”I am kind of jealous...” I looked back at the source of this voice...
”Really now? I never took you for a girl who would love to go through all this...” I said back to her.
She 'humph' at me and walked over...
I looked at Ying'er who is inhabiting a pseudo body for this event.
In other words, I delved into arts which back in my old world is called 'Homunculi' a branch of Alchemy, artificial body making art...
In a sense Ying'er can use around 2% of her real power...
Not much... but in Sky Profound Continent? She has the power of a Sovereign Profound.
She acquired it after extensive negotiations with me, and of course, after signing GEASS scroll.
While she doesn't have her Blond hair, something like that stand out even more than myself.
So yes she is raven head with blue eyes, and her ethereal beauty has been 'lessened' not that it's actually possible to do that...
She can still make people into mumbling idiots, and she showed that to me several times in Palace, where I had to erase people memories about her.
”I wouldn't care if it was marriage to some idiot...” She engulfed me into a hug from behind.
”I see... good to know that Brahma Monarch Goddess actually likes such mortal thing like weddings...” I said with a teasing smirk.
She 'Humph' again and turned me around, then inspected my robes.
”I expect my own wedding soon master...” she said what with smile.
Internally I raised an eyebrow, when did this happen?
After one more check, I was finally ready to get this show on the road, I walked through doors towards the main Hall where guest going to arrive any moment.
According to Emperor pretty much every single person of some note have been invited, even people who are not invited are coming here to see me or Cang Yue... of course they are bringing gifts of some sort.
'So they are making their move... I don't remember inviting Phoenix Empire's Prince to my wedding...' I shook my head with amusement
'At least there will be some entertainment... I hope he provokes me enough to have reason to wipe the floor with him...' I leisurely entered the main Hall.
The whole place has transformed, lots of red ribbons, lanterns golden-red dancing Phoenixes, to make it more 'awesome' I helped them with formations, Showing of ingenuity and power of formations.
From alive like Phoenix illusions, to Hogwarts like floating candles above people heads.
Probably the most magical wedding in whole Profound Sky Continent.
”Feng'er you finally here!” and yes the Emperor and me are very chummy now...
”Yes... Father-in-law...” so weird...saying that...
”Had few things to do... you have probably sensed 'them'?” I asked quietly.
”Yes...we still trying to figure out what Divine Phoenix Empire's prince is doing here...” The Emperor said curiously.
Their presence here is interesting to me as well, Blue Wind is considerate 'weakest' empire in Sky Profound Continent, that was of course before I domesticated over hundred Sovereign of which half of them already are have reached Peak Sovereign Level...
While My original minion soon moves out to Conquer Xiao Sect and add them to my overall strength...
But if things play out interestingly enough we might have grievances with Phoenix Empire IF they do something here today...
And this is something I would love to see...
