Chapter 479: Prelude to the Grand Wedding
Telixiya Kingdom, Molten Duchy.
Ever since the Holy Storm Organization rose to prominence, occupied this duchy, and swallowed up some nearby noble territories, this organization renamed this region the "Blazing Holy Court."
The holy capital of the Blazing Holy Court is Molten City.
As the supreme rulers and adjudicators of the Holy Court, Flame Envoy Yanyi and Storm Envoy Selandier reside within Molten Fortress.
Their identities are the same as Mofisite; they are all spokespeople sent by the Demon God to the Orland Continent.
Inside the sanctuary of Molten Fortress, the burly and tall Yanyi frowned, his expression gloomy as he said to the woman beside him: "Mofisite is dead!"
Yanyi's physique was already very large, and set off by a set of golden battle armor, he brought a sense of absolute oppression.
Yet Selandier, standing before him, appeared somewhat delicate, though no one in the Holy Court dared to question this woman; her ruthlessness was just as extreme as her beauty.
"Hmph, I told him long ago not to go north without us, but he wouldn't listen!"
Selandier sat on a chair to the side, pouting, "Now that he's dead, it's the price he deserved to pay!"
Yanyi turned and sat in his own seat, his body filling the spacious steel throne.
"Although Mofisite had a strange personality, as one of the three Envoys, his death fills me with grief! Selandier, you should not hold such great hostility toward a fallen companion."
As the acting leader of this operation and the supreme decision-maker of the Holy Storm Organization, Yanyi still possessed prestige.
"Fine, Yanyi, you are right; I should not continue to hold prejudice and hostility toward him."
Selandier sighed and began to earnestly understand the matter.
"We all know Mofisite's abilities; with the blessing of the Witch Soul Bead, it is very difficult to kill him, which was also his confidence in heading north alone."
She asked suspiciously: "So, how did he die?"
Yanyi waved the letter in his hand, "This is the intelligence sent from over there; there are two figures we need to pay attention to, and one of them is an old friend we are familiar with."
"Who?" Selandier asked curiously.
"Princess Suofeiya of the City of Dawn; she has arrived in the Auduin Kingdom."
Selandier was stunned for a moment, then she roughly understood why Mofisite might have died.
"The leader of the City of Dawn comes from a background as a Magician, and the things she has invented over these years have caused us great trouble. Among them is an instrument that can locate the Witch Soul Bead; Mofisite probably didn't expect them to have come as well."
"Then, who is the second person?"
"It is a native called 'Ronin Wushan'."
Yanyi looked at the letter in his hand and introduced: "This person is not yet twenty years old, yet he is already a Blazing Sun Knight, and he has many powerful people by his side. Even Suofeiya and her group have joined his camp; Mofisite died at the hands of this person."
Selandier was also slightly astonished; a Blazing Sun Knight under twenty years old—such talent was rarely seen even on the New Moon Continent.
"Since Suofeiya recognizes him, I estimate it will be very difficult for us to cooperate with him. If nothing goes wrong, this Ronin will definitely become a formidable enemy of ours in the future!"
"Mm!"
Yanyi flicked his finger, and the letter in his hand was incinerated by flames.
"Fortunately, Suofeiya did not obtain the support of the Auduin Kingdom, otherwise, a war between these two kingdoms would break out immediately. But as long as time passes, her and Ronin's strong alliance will eventually have the potential to cause us trouble. Therefore, we must head north as soon as possible!"
Selandier frowned slightly: "The one that should head north is the Telixiya Kingdom; if we take the initiative to go north, it is equivalent to being caught between two sides."
Yanyi chuckled, "Don't worry, a turning point will arrive very soon!"
"Oh?"
Selandier's eyes rolled, and she roughly guessed a thing or two in her heart.
It is estimated that the Telixiya royal family wants to reach a cooperation with them to jointly resist the powerful enemy that might head south.
……
Ronin only felt that time passed very quickly once he became busy; before he knew it, it was the end of December, and it was the annual New Year festival once again.
It was just that this year's New Year was different from usual; this day was the day of his grand wedding.
On the morning of the 28th, before the sky was even bright, Wushan Castle was already brightly lit.
The personal maid Beila had also rarely gone on Along journey this time, following Daianni from the Wubei Territory to the Marquis's castle; at this moment, she and the maids in the castle were carefully dressing and grooming Ronin.
Ronin looked at himself in the mirror, the corners of his mouth curling up involuntarily.
At this moment, he was wearing a gorgeous robe meticulously tailored by Wushan Castle; according to Beila's introduction, this robe used high-end velvet and the most exquisite Silk from the Wubei Territory, and it was of extremely high value.
Besides the robe, he was also wearing a belt inlaid with jewels, precious Pearl bracelets, an exquisite necklace, and a wide-brimmed top hat.
Overall, he looked both jeweled and incomparably gorgeous, yet without lacking elegance and poise.
"It's still more comfortable to wear my usual clothes," Ronin couldn't help but sigh.
Diana, who was supervising on the side, smiled and said: "This is your wedding after all, and it is also the most important day for the royal family; we cannot lose face."
Buleidun gave a thumbs up: "Brother is so handsome!"
Ronin couldn't help but laugh out loud, turned his head left and right to look, and couldn't help but smack his lips: "It does seem quite handsome."
After a flurry of activity, the morning sun broke through the dawn, and the sky gradually brightened.
On the plaza in front of Wushan Castle, the dragon Kaierluosi had long been lying there, spitting out the elements of heaven and earth, forming a special scene where wind and fire alternated.
Seeing this scene made one feel both terrified and awestruck.
The nobles who had come to Wushan Castle stood in the distance one after another, sighing incessantly.
Especially those who had seen the dragon; they did not expect that Kaierluosi had actually grown so large.
Around eight o'clock in the morning, Lulansi, Weijinsi, and others crowded around Ronin and arrived at the front of the plaza.
Dressed in grand attire, Lulansi was full of vigor, his face full of smiles mixed with gratification, "Go, go and return quickly!"
Over the past two months, the royal family and Wushan Castle had discussed many times, and at the same time, under Ronin's suggestion, the process for the wedding procession was finally determined.
As the representative of the royal family, Blanche's wedding often carried extremely high political and symbolic significance; at the same time, in order to manifest the authority and glory of the royal family, according to custom, the wedding would be held in the royal auditorium.
Ronin did not raise any objections to this point, only making modifications to the aspect of having the evening banquet at the Jinyu Palace.
Therefore, he had to arrive at the Jinyu Palace in the morning, hold the wedding at the royal auditorium at noon, and after the luncheon, he would take Blanche back and hold a celebratory evening banquet at Wushan Castle.
Ronin nodded and took a large step, arriving directly on the back of Kaierluosi.
"Let's go!"
Kaierluosi spread his massive wings, instantly blotting out the sky and sun; the immense pressure released from his body made the legs of the people watching from afar tremble uncontrollably.
Whoosh—
A strong gale swept through the city, and the man and the dragon departed at extreme speed, becoming nothing more than a tiny black dot in the blink of an eye.
Lulansi looked at the sky, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
The news that Luoning possessed a dragon had already spread, but the vast majority of nobles had never seen the dragon's true form, nor did they know what kind of sensation Luoning would cause by arriving in Golden Feather City in such a manner today.
Lulansi had actually suggested that Luoning not use the dragon and instead use a Griffin; after all, there were quite a few Griffins in the family.
But Luoning did not agree; to him, how could such a major life event be justified if it wasn't made lively and grand? (End of chapter)
