Chapter 333: Sending off the daughter, then gifting the island? The clever Hippolyta
Paradise Island, inside the sanctuary.
Crackle...
Space suddenly fluctuated, translucent cracks like shattered glass appeared, and then with a "bang," a spatial portal burst open.
At the head seat.
Hippolyta’s heart skipped a beat. With a vigilant expression, she rose from her seat and cast her gaze toward the weapon rack nearby, intending to grab her sword.
The handmaidens also clenched their fists, staring nervously at the spatial portal.
Only Gwen smiled slightly, calmly soothing everyone, saying: "Don't be afraid, it's Ye Li and the others returning... Perhaps Her Majesty the Queen can start the celebration. He likes your moussaka and hopes you can prepare a bit more for the banquet~"
As soon as she finished speaking.
Two figures appeared behind the spatial portal.
"Hehe, it seems Her Majesty the Queen doesn't have much confidence in me either."
Ye Li walked through the portal happily with the Princess, his demeanor relaxed and comfortable.
"Mother." Diana cast her gaze toward her mother, her expression spirited, a pride never seen before lingering between her bold brows.
Although she did not immediately announce the result of the battle.
The joy of victory was written on her face; it was self-evident.
"You succeeded..."
Hippolyta’s expression turned from shock to joy instantly. The thousand-year-old stone that had been hanging in her heart finally landed, and her whole body felt a sense of relief.
In her excitement, she, with her robust physique, actually stood unsteadily, her footsteps staggering as she swayed, causing the handmaidens beside her to quickly reach out and support her.
"Mother, are you alright?" Diana also immediately stepped forward to ask.
"Rest assured, she is fine; her body is very strong." Ye Li sat back in his seat leisurely, picked up the flower tea that still retained its warmth, and took a light sip.
He could see that Hippolyta was not seriously hurt, just overly happy.
"The Heavenly God is right, I am fine."
Hippolyta stroked the back of her daughter’s hand, looking at her with expectant eyes, and asked as if to confirm: "Did you defeat Ares, Diana?"
"Mm!"
Diana nodded vigorously and replied with a smile: "Thanks to Ye Li’s help, from now on, Paradise Island will never have to worry about the threat of Ares again."
"That’s wonderful..."
"That’s wonderful..."
Hearing this, Hippolyta muttered excitedly to herself.
Then.
She cast a gaze full of gratitude toward Ye Li again.
"Heavenly God..."
Breaking free from the handmaidens' support, she came solemnly before Ye Li, took one of his palms, and made a declaration to everyone with an incredibly sincere expression:
"In the name of the current Queen of the Amazon tribe, from this moment on, Paradise Island shall be under the full jurisdiction of you and Diana. Please, you must agree!"
"What?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked!
Clearly, Diana and all the Amazon people were caught off guard by this.
"Mother..."
"Your Majesty the Queen, Paradise Island has never had a precedent of being ruled by a male!"
"That’s right..."
"Even if you insist on this, the matter of the throne succession must wait for the elders..."
Some conservative tribespeople spoke up, trying to dissuade her.
But Hippolyta waved her hand and, in the sternest tone, cut them off decisively: "Enough! Everyone shut up! What do you know?"
"Not to mention that the Heavenly God has great goodwill toward our Paradise Island, if the Heavenly God is willing to take over Paradise Island, it is an honor for our Amazon tribe!"
"This..." The tribespeople suddenly became hesitant.
That’s right...
Letting the Heavenly God take over Paradise Island is equivalent to gaining the protection of a supreme powerhouse, which is a rare and good thing for Paradise Island and the Amazon tribe.
If it were any other powerhouse, the strong-willed Amazons certainly would not agree.
But Ye Li helped them solve Ares and also has a relationship with their Princess, which made them subconsciously believe that Ye Li is already one of their own on Paradise Island, so the feeling of rejection was not that strong.
Seeing that no one expressed opposition anymore.
Hippolyta smiled again, turned back to ask Ye Li: "Then, for Diana’s sake, Heavenly God, are you willing to agree to my request?"
"Heh, you are quite clever, and honest."
Ye Li chuckled, glanced slightly at Diana beside him, and seeing the expectation in her eyes, he nodded slightly and said calmly.
"Fine, I agree to your request."
"However, I can't be bothered with managing things. From now on, all affairs of Paradise Island will still be left to you two mother and daughter."
Hearing this.
All the Amazon women revealed expressions of joy.
They immediately felt even more favorable toward Ye Li, their new King.
After all, with all affairs left to Hippolyta to handle, everything on Paradise Island remained almost unchanged. How is this any different from getting the protection of a powerhouse for free?
Regarding this, Hippolyta was also flattered. She immediately knelt on one knee respectfully before Ye Li and was the first to express her stance: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will have people go down to set up a banquet immediately to celebrate your triumphant return and announce your new status as King to all the tribespeople..."
"Mother..."
Seeing her mother actually kneeling before her own man.
Diana hesitated for a few seconds.
Finally.
She also slowly knelt beside Hippolyta.
Only, the look in her beautiful eyes as she watched Ye Li was not as respectful as Hippolyta’s, but rather filled with liveliness and quirkiness.
After all.
The last time she knelt before Ye Li like this was just last night, "after the battle," when she was polishing and maintaining his "divine weapon"...
"Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty."
Seeing that both the Queen and the Princess had expressed their submission.
The surrounding Amazon people also knelt on the ground one after another.
Forming a circle around Ye Li.
Giving the new King’s ascension the perfect atmosphere and momentum.
Even Gwen, the only one still standing, winked playfully at Ye Li and teased him: "The atmosphere is right, do you want me to kneel for you too~"
Ye Li rolled his eyes slightly: "It won't be too late to kneel when you enter my room."
Just as he was speaking.
A message from Ghoul-Girl suddenly popped up in the family group chat.
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "Major discovery! Major discovery!"
[Ghost Spider]: "?"
[World Weaver]: "Didn't I tell you to wait properly? What are you doing now?"
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "Wow, you say it easily. If it were you staying in space, could you sit still? You're the one who loves to play the most!"
[Ghost Spider]: [Sends emoji] (covers mouth and laughs)
[World Weaver]: "..."
[World Weaver]: "Fine, fine, so what is it?"
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "Look at this—"
[Group Notification: [Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity] sent a photo]
[World Weaver]: "Yo, you're learning fast. You even know how to use the message group to take photos and upload them."
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "Of course, look at who I am. The highest technology on your Earth is just a toy to me!"
[World Weaver]: "Look at how capable you are."
[Ghost Spider]: "What does this photo mean? It looks... like an interstellar warship about to land on Earth."
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "That’s right, haha, Gwen is still the smart one~"
[World Weaver]: "Anyone with eyes can see that."
[Ghost Spider]: [Sends emoji] (pouts in anger)
[World Weaver]: "Ahem... of course, it’s an undeniable fact that Gwen is smart. I’ve always seen her academic performance."
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "Wow... on Earth, is this called [henpecked]?"
[World Weaver]: "..."
[World Weaver]: "Alright, get to the point. I’m in a rush to eat here."
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "The thing is like this..."
Ghoul-Girl recounted the process in the group.
But after reading it, Ye Li was a bit speechless.
[World Weaver]: "That’s it?"
[World Weaver]: "This seems to have nothing to do with us... You’re a cosmic entity, after all. Don’t be so jumpy next time."
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "Pfft—"
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: [Sends emoji] (sticks out tongue)
"I was just too bored. When are you guys coming?"
[Ghost Spider]: "Don't be anxious, Ghoul-Girl, we are about to set off."
[Weak and Pitiful Cosmic Entity]: "OK, then I’ll go study this starship. Bye~"
"Tsk."
Seeing that the "Gluttony Girl" had just "surfaced" in the group and then "dived" again.
Ye Li suddenly felt he had been toyed with.
So he decided that the next time they met, he would thoroughly conquer this cosmic entity as well, and let her know why flowers are so red!
