To be honest, I don't want to wait any longer. As soon as I saw the gate of the capital, my heart flew to the side of my beloved. But since Tianyun has already spoken, I can't say anything, so I can only wait with him. up.
I walked up to Li Feng, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Old Ancestor Li Feng, don't be angry, Tian Yun is right. However, if I go back to the village to promote the majestic God of Miefeng You can’t even enter the city gate of the capital, I’m afraid many people will be interested, haha.”
Tian Yun frowned and said: "Lei Xiang, don't be angry with the second brother."
Li Feng's fists were clenched and rattling, and his eyes seemed to burst into flames. Tian Yun was right, his character was really impulsive, even though he was over two hundred years old, he was still as hot as fire.
At this moment, a childish voice caught our attention: "Grandma, grandma, what's wrong with you?"
Following the sound, I saw a little girl squatting on the ground crying, and an elderly woman lying there in front of her, her body trembling constantly.
Two soldiers guarding the city ran over immediately, and one of them was the one who stopped us just now.
We also leaned forward, and the crowd queuing around suddenly gathered around. Human beings are so lively, and it can't be changed at any time.
A soldier helped the old woman's upper body up: "Old man, what's wrong with you?"
The old woman's face was as pale as paper, her body was still trembling, and she looked delirious.
Another soldier shouted to the surrounding people: "Is there anyone here who is a doctor? Quickly help this aunt to see. The military department will definitely thank you."
People around are shaking their heads, it seems that there is no doctor.
The soldier hugging the old woman said decisively to his companion, "Quickly, go and invite the healing magician from the Magician Legion. You can't move her now, otherwise there may be danger."
Another soldier agreed, turned around and ran into the city.
Seeing this scene, Li Feng loosened his clenched fist, sighed, and said to the sky: "Brother, help her to see."
Tian Yun nodded slightly, leaned over, and said, "Come on, let's make room, and give the patient some fresh air."
He knelt down and said to the soldier, "I know some light magic, I'll help her see."
The little girl at the side grabbed Tian Yun's clothes and said anxiously: "Uncle, uncle, you have to save my grandma."
Tian Yun nodded with a smile, and said, "Little girl, let me try."
The soldier said earnestly: "Thank you, please take a look."
Tian Yun stretched out his right hand and placed it on the old woman's chest. After a long while, he sighed and said, "She is old. She must have had a serious illness when she was young, and she didn't take good care of it afterwards. This is an old illness." relapse."
Seeing Tian Yun's expression, I knew that the old lady was seriously ill. With Tian Yun's magical cultivation, there were not many people who could embarrass him.
The soldier said anxiously: "Is it still alive? Please help her treat it quickly."
Tian Yun sighed and said: "Even if I cured her temporarily, it will not be cured. The disease has penetrated into the bone marrow and belongs to the fate. I can only help her prolong her life." After finishing speaking, he put his hand on the old woman's head , closed his eyes, and kept chanting the mantra in his mouth. The white and soft light emitted from his body slowly entered the old woman's body.
The people around seemed to enjoy the white light very much, with intoxicated expressions on their faces, but Mo Yue and I felt uncomfortable due to our incompatible attributes, so I dragged her out of the crowd.
At this time, the soldier who ran to find someone earlier had returned, and he pulled a magician in a white magic robe. He was panting and sweating, and he didn't even bother to wipe it off. He is really an enthusiastic person!
While running, he shouted: "Everyone, get out of the way, the therapist is here."
The onlookers hurried out of the way, just in time to show Tian Yun treating the old woman.
The therapist and the soldier approached, and when he saw the soft light emanating from Tian Yun's body, he was stunned. The soldier hurriedly said, "Take a look quickly, the old lady seems to be dying."
The therapist shook his head and said: "This gentleman's skill is much higher than mine, so I don't need it. If he can't cure it, I can't help it either."
After a long while, the old woman let out a long breath, woke up, and shouted: "I'm so sick."
Tian Yun sighed, "You're fine for now."
The old woman hurriedly said, "Thank you for saving me."
Tian Yun shook his head and said: "I also temporarily save your life, but when it happens again, even the gods will have nothing to do."
The old woman said sadly: "At first, I thought that I would die this time, but I am very satisfied to survive. Can you tell me how long I can live?"
Tian Yun stood up and said, "It will not be more than ten years at most."
The old woman said happily: "It's great that you can live for such a long time, benefactor, I kowtow to you."
As he said that, he was about to kneel down to Tian Yun. Tian Yun stroked the old woman up and said, "You're fine now. You need to take care of yourself in the future."
The old lady said respectfully: "Yes, benefactor, thank you."
The soldier at the side supported the old woman and said, "Auntie, are you really alright?"
The old woman nodded and said, "I've never felt so relaxed as now, young man, thank you too."
The soldier smiled innocently and said, "You're welcome, aunt, you are much older than my mother. This is what our army should do. The duty of our army is to ensure the safety of the people."
The civilians around who were about to enter the city immediately applauded, and there was a burst of applause.
The therapist who came from the city walked to Tian Yun's side and said respectfully: "Hello, magician, I don't know what method you used to heal this aunt just now?"
The old woman was stunned when she saw the therapist, and said, "Doctor Wang, it's you!"
The therapist nodded and said: "It's me, Aunt Li, how are you feeling now? Didn't I tell you when I was treating you last time, don't work hard anymore? Why didn't you listen, today If it weren't for this gentleman's profound skills, I'm afraid you would be in danger."
The old woman nodded repeatedly, and said gratefully: "You are my savior, I really don't know how to repay you."
Tian Yun smiled slightly, and said: "It's the best repayment for you to go back and take a good rest. Remember, you must not work any longer. You should rest more and take good care of yourself."
After thanking her for a long time, the old woman took her granddaughter and left.
But the therapist didn't leave, and he said with admiration: "Sir, your light magic is really good, can I ask you, what method did you use to help Aunt Li heal. I helped her see a doctor, but I tried my best, but I couldn't get rid of the cold air in her body. When I checked her just now, I found that the cold air disappeared. It's amazing."
Tian Yun was not happy with the other party's praise, sighed, and said: "Although I have temporarily cured her injury, her body itself has been severely traumatized, resulting in a very weak constitution. With her current condition In terms of physical condition, he can only live for another ten years at most."
The therapist nodded sadly and said: "That's the only way to go. However, this is already very good. If I continue to help her diagnose and treat her, I'm afraid I won't even be able to pass three years."
The soldier who was in charge of interrogating us just now came over and saluted Tianyun: "Sir, thank you for your generous help just now."
I hurriedly said, "Thank you, no need, you just need to let us into the city."
The soldier was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Saving people is one thing, but entering the city is another. I'm sorry, I can't easily let you in because of my duty."
The therapist said: "Forget it, let them go in. Just now, this gentleman's light magic is very profound. Without a kind heart, it is impossible to practice light magic to this level."
The soldier hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, since you said so, let them enter the city." It seems that this therapist surnamed Wang still has some authority here.
Tian Yun said: "Then thank you all."
Just as we were about to leave, there was a sudden commotion in the city, and someone shouted: "Marshal is inspecting, gather."
Both the soldier and the healer were taken aback and stood aside. Could it be that Landis is here
Tian Yun was stunned for a moment, then glanced at me, we were at the city gate tower, he winked at me, we quickly stepped back and stood with the soldiers.
The sound of dense footsteps came, and a group of capable silver-armored soldiers quickly ran out of the city. They walked neatly and looked serious, and quickly ran to the city gate to separate the two sides. One of them shouted loudly: "Randy Marshal Si is here."
The sound of footsteps came again, and a tall figure came out from the city. It was Landis, one of the three marshals of the Dragon God Empire who I had met once.
He has a serious expression, wearing a golden chain mail, a fiery red cloak fluttering behind him, and walked out with the helmet in his hand. The powerful aura on his body can be seen at a glance, but compared with Tian Yun, he is much worse. From the outside, I can't tell how advanced my cultivation is. In this regard, I am much worse than him.
All the civilians knelt down at the same time, their faces full of reverence. At the same time, the soldiers raised their weapons in salute to their most respected commander of the empire.
Landis walked to the gate of the city and said loudly: "Folks, please hurry up, I'm just here for a routine inspection."
He turned his eyes and saw us. When he saw me, he couldn't help being stunned. When he saw Tian Yun, his eyes burst into a strange look. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Captain on duty."
The soldier who blocked us from entering the city just now stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Here's the humble job."
"What's going on here?"
"Report to the Marshal, everything is normal."
Landis turned his gaze to us and asked, "What's going on with them?"
The soldier replied respectfully: "They couldn't confirm their identities during the inspection just now, so I temporarily detained them here. According to them, they are mercenaries."
Landis nodded and said, "Stand back and continue checking."
"Yes, Marshal." The soldier withdrew.
Landis walked up to us, looked Tianyun up and down a few times, and said hesitantly: "You...you are?"
Tian Yun smiled slightly, and said: "Landis, we haven't seen each other for more than thirty years. You met once when you were just promoted to Dragon Knight."
There was a look of surprise in Landis's eyes, he took a step back, knelt down on one knee and put his right hand on his chest, and said excitedly: "Landis, the humble class, see..."
Tian Yun didn't wait for him to reveal his identity, and hurriedly helped him up, saying: "Get up, you have other things to do, I have some things to deal with when I return to the city this time, and I don't want to disturb too much."
The surrounding soldiers and civilians were dumbfounded. They never imagined that a god-like figure in their hearts would kneel down to an inconspicuous middle-aged man.
The captain on duty who once intercepted us stood there in a daze, his eyes widened. I think his mind must be blank now.
Landis stood up, and said respectfully: "Yes, then go to the city quickly, if you have a chance, I would like to ask you to give me more advice."
Tian Yun smiled and said: "You have done a good job. The defense of the capital has been done very well under your management. The soldiers under your command are both responsible and caring. These are the talents of our Dragon God Empire. I will go to see His Majesty later, but don't tell him yet, I don't want too many people to know that I am back."
"Yes." Landis replied respectfully.
I took a step forward and said, "Marshal Landis, hello. Long time no see. Do you still recognize me?"
Landis was taken aback, turned his head to look at me, frowned, and suddenly said: "You are a student of Tiandu Academy who was with that girl Zixue when His Majesty was hunting last time. What is your name?"
I nodded and said: "Yes, it's me, my name is Lei Xiang, and please take care of me from the marshal in the future."
Landis looked at me, then at Tianyun, and said doubtfully, "Have you already worshiped Lord Tian as your teacher?"
Tian Yun smiled and said: "Then how could it be, I am not worthy to be his master. Well, you can do your work, we have entered the city."
Landis looked at me suspiciously, bowed and said, "Go slowly, if there is anything I need to do, just tell me."
Tian Yun nodded, and the four of us finally walked into the gate of the capital.
Tian Yun is indeed supreme in the Dragon God Empire, and even a powerful official like Landis pays respect to him.
Walking into the capital, I said to Tianyun who was watching around: "Ancestor Tianyun, you are still amazing! Even Marshal Landis will kneel down to you."
Tian Yun glanced at me and said: "The reason why he is so respectful to me is because the three major dragon knights in their empire have all been taught by me, and when the Holy Dragon Knights were established, the king at that time had a Secret edict, our Holy Dragon Knights have the power of life and death over any official in the empire, even when the king is fatuous, you can...you understand."
My heart trembled. I really didn't expect what Tianyun said. It turns out that there are still these secrets in it. The Holy Dragon Knights actually have the power to supervise the country, but why did he tell me. I am just an outsider, and I am also the commander-in-chief of the entire army of the Dragon God Empire's feuding orcs.
Tian Yun seemed to see my doubts, and said indifferently: "Lei Xiang! Don't think too much, take us back to your house to have a look, and then I will go to the palace to meet His Majesty."
I nodded and said: "Okay, let's go quickly." As I said that, I took Mo Yue's little hand and led the way first.
After a while, we have arrived at our home in the capital, a beautiful courtyard. The gate of the courtyard was closed, so I stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door.
"Who is it?" Bai Jian's voice came from the courtyard.
"Sister Jian'er, it's me."
"Ah!" After an exclamation, there were dense footsteps, the courtyard door opened, and Bai Jian appeared in front of us with a face full of surprise. She was dressed in plain clothes, but she couldn't hide her stunning appearance.
"Lei Xiang, you're back." Although it was only a few words, I could hear the excitement in her heart.
I took a step forward, held her little cold and soft hand, and said, "Sister Jian'er, is everything alright at home?"
Bai Jian was caught by my hand, struggled slightly, but did not break free, his face blushed, and he nodded slightly: "Everything is fine at home, but mother misses you very much, you are back."
I really wanted to ask her, do you miss me too, but I didn't say it out loud. Although Bai Jian and I already have a marriage contract, the time we spend together is too short after all, I'm afraid it will scare her . Feelings are better cultivated slowly.
Li Feng's voice came from behind: "I said Lei Xiang, why don't you introduce us to him? He has come all the way and won't let us in."
My face blushed, and I hurriedly turned sideways and said, "Let me introduce to you, this is one of my fiancées, Bai Jian. Sister Jian'er, these two are my distinguished guests Tian Yun and Li Feng."
Bai Jian saluted and said: "Hello, both of you, please come in quickly."
Tian Yun threw an ambiguous look at me, and together with Li Feng, walked into my home.
The scene in the courtyard surprised Tian Yun and Li Feng at the same time, and I proudly said, "How is it? Isn't this place not bad?"
Li Feng praised: "It's really a good place. You can enjoy such a courtyard in a place like the capital, Lei Xiang! The air is really good, it seems like you're back in the valley."
I laughed and said, "I didn't arrange this, but another caring person. Let's go, I'll take you to meet my mother."
Before we walked along the gravel path to the wooden house, the mother who heard the noise came out to greet her: "Xiang'er, I knew it was you who came back, oh, who are these two?"
I hastened to introduce it again, and when I entered the wooden house, Bai Jian said: "Sit down first, I'll pour some water for you." Then he turned and walked out.
I said to my mother: "Mom, are you in good health?"
The mother smiled and said: "Don't worry, mother will be fine. Since I started learning Kung Fu with you, my mother's body has become much stronger."
"Then I don't worry, mother, these two are rare guests! They are both over two hundred years old. This old ancestor of Tianyun is the head of the Holy Dragon Knights today. He is known as the patron saint of light. This ancestor Li Feng is the deputy head of the Holy Dragon Knights, he is known as the God of Miefeng, and he is the highest-ranking figure in the Dragon God Empire."
My mother was shocked when she heard my words, she stood up and said: "So it's Senior Tian Yun and Senior Li Feng, the little girl is rude."
Tian Yun said: "Don't be so polite, please sit down."
The mother's eyes were full of reverence, and said: "I grew up listening to your glorious deeds when I was a child. I really didn't expect to see you in person in my lifetime."
Tian Yun smiled and said: "All of us are old and immortal, and we are thieves. This time we came here mainly for Lei Xiang's affairs." On the way, I had already told them the identity of my mother.
My mother was taken aback, and looked at me suspiciously: "Xiang'er, he..."
I smiled and said, "Mother, have you forgotten? When I left, didn't I say that I would invite a big man to come back to help me propose a marriage? It was the ancestor of Tianyun. With his old man coming forward, how could Uncle Zifeng give me a proposal?" face?"
The mother said in surprise: "When did you know Senior Tianyun? Why haven't you heard about it?"
I knew that my mother was worried because of my identity as an orc, and she was afraid that Tianyun would embarrass me because of my identity. When I was about to answer, Tianyun preempted me.
Tian Yun replied for me: "We don't know each other without fighting, and we can be regarded as friends who have forgotten the years. Lei Xiang is a good boy. You can have him as a son, which makes me jealous! I know he is an orc, but he But he doesn't have any aggressive ambitions. Even though he is in a high position in the orc race, he can think about other races. To be honest, I admire him very much. This time he came to me and asked me to propose marriage for him. I am very happy. In the future, on the mainland, It is the world of these young people, and I am a matchmaker."
I laughed and said, "Old Ancestor Tianyun, you are not old! With your current state, I am afraid that it will not be a problem to live another two hundred years."
The mother didn't seem to have recovered from her surprise, and murmured, "I'm really honored to have you as the master for Xiang'er."
I said to Tian Yun: "Old Ancestor, you have also seen my mother this time, should you tell me how to deal with the marriage, after all, I am the party involved!"
Tian Yun nodded and said, "Okay, since you want to know so much, I'll tell you. However, it requires you to make some sacrifices for politics, can you agree?"
I was taken aback, what I hate the most is political marriage, he wouldn't want to find me a wife again, frowned, and I said, "Let's listen first, let's see if I can do it?"
Tian Yun said indifferently: "That day, after you told me about the marriage, I thought about it for several days, and finally came up with a good solution. Lei Xiang, I know you don't have any pursuit of fame and wealth, but I hope You can consider the civilians of humans, orcs, and demons. I want to make your wedding bigger this time."
"Making it big? How can I make it big?" I seemed to have grasped something vaguely, but I couldn't explain it clearly.
Tian Yun said seriously: "Now you have four fiancees, among them Yue'er is the princess of the Demon Race, the Miss Bai Jian just now is a fox from the Beastman clan, and the other two are the daughters of Duke Zifeng. That is to say, Your fiancées include members of the three races. If you want to marry your fiancées at the same time without causing them to be wronged, there is only one place where their families can be present, and nothing will happen conflict."
His words made my heart tremble, and I asked suspiciously, "What did you say?"
Tian Yun nodded and said: "You should have already thought about it, yes, I'm talking about the open space in front of the Stru Fortress. Don't get excited, just listen to me."
Tian Yun stopped me from interjecting, and continued: "I think so, since your fiancée belongs to three clans, and their identities have a certain status in each clan, and you are an important minister of the orc clan, if Let's make this wedding bigger, which happens to be a good time to adjust the relationship between the three races. If I'm right, the Demon Race and the Beastman Race have no plans to invade the Dragon God Empire in a short time. In this case, we Why not take this opportunity to reach an agreement so that at least there will be no conflict between the three races for a relatively long period of time?"
My mind was a little messed up by what he said, how can a marriage be so troublesome, Tianyun, Tianyun, no matter what time you can't forget the peace of the mainland, you are really there, no wonder he agreed to be me so easily matchmaker.
"Ancestor Tianyun, why do I feel like I've been fooled by you. Go on, I want to hear your complete thoughts. However, I haven't agreed to you yet."
Tian Yun smiled confidently, and said: "You will agree. I am going to make your wedding grander. Given your status among the beastmen, it should not be a problem to ask the Beast Emperor to officiate your wedding ceremony. And Yue'er She is the devil's favorite princess, and the devil will definitely come forward. I will discuss with His Majesty and ask him to marry the daughter of Duke Zifeng. In this way, the heads of the three clans can be gathered outside the Fortress of Stru, although you The wedding will become a political marriage, but it can bring peace to the common people of all ethnic groups. I think, with our Holy Dragon Knights, the Demon Emperor and the Beast Emperor should not reject our peace talks. In this way, you can also Marry the girl you love, kill two birds with one stone, why not do it?"
Li Feng laughed and said: "Brother, I really have you. This is indeed a good idea, Lei Xiang, you just agree. At that time, your wedding will become the most grand wedding on the mainland."
At this time, Bai Jian walked in, and she also noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so she put the brewed tea in front of us, and then walked behind her mother to listen to our conversation.
Alas, it was still calculated by Tian Yun, but the method he said is indeed feasible, it will not cause the girls to be wronged, and it can achieve the goal of peace.
However, if I really do what he said, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to move forward on the mainland in the future. It is not a good thing to become a household name. After all, Tian Yun has lived for more than two hundred years, so he really is a treacherous and cunning man.
"Ancestor Tianyun, what if I disagree with your proposal?"
Tian Yun smiled slightly and said: "It's okay if you disagree." He turned to his mother and said: "You should be a member of the royal family, and you don't want to see any more disputes between the three clans?"
Mother nodded unconsciously, and said: "Yes, for hundreds of years, the war on the mainland has never stopped."
Tian Yun said with satisfaction: "That's why we have to do this, Lei Xiang, didn't you tell me that you would live in seclusion after getting married? Naturally, a grand wedding will not have much impact on you."
He paused, took a sip of the tea brought by Bai Jian, and continued: "You are well aware of the strength of our Holy Dragon Knights. Although your skill is very high, the combined power of demons and orcs cannot It competes with our Dragon God Empire. Although the ancestors once said that every creature on the continent has the right to survive, if wars continue between various races, the continent will be destroyed by war sooner or later. Therefore, if If the two races of monsters invade the Dragon God Empire again, I will lead the forces in the regiment to participate in the war. I think you should be very clear about the consequences. Even the current Majesty of the Dragon God Empire will not stop it. mine."
He is threatening me. In fact, I have already agreed with his views on the wedding in my heart, but I am very angry at his threat. Anger surged in my heart, and I said coldly: "Even if your Holy Dragon Knights can destroy us in the end." I am afraid that the two clans will also suffer a lot of losses."
Tian Yun sighed, and said: "Lei Xiang, you are a smart person. What I just said is only a possibility. As long as the peace talks between the three clans succeed this time, it will be a good thing for the three clans. You can get a long time to recuperate. Think about it. Don’t you want to be with your beloved girl? If I object, even Duke Zifeng would change his mind if he wanted to marry his daughter to you. I hope you can figure it out."
I didn't want to reject him, not to mention that what he said was really threatening to me.
I glared at him, and said dejectedly: "Ancestor Tianyun, you are too treacherous. Do I have a choice? Well, I agree. However, I have conditions."
Tian Yun showed an expression that he knew you would agree, and smiled: "Say it, I will try my best to promise you."
I said: "First of all, this grand political wedding is what you want to do. I don't care about anything. Everything is handled by you. I am only responsible for attending the wedding. Secondly, you have to guarantee that if this peace talk is successful, you The Holy Dragon Knights must not participate in any wars on the mainland in the future, can you do it?"
Tian Yun said: "I can promise you the first point. Your Majesty should be able to handle it well. However, you need to inform the demons and orcs yourself and communicate with them. As for the second point, I I can't promise you that the Holy Dragon Knights will never participate in the war, but I can guarantee that as long as the demons and beasts fulfill the peace talks, as long as the Dragon God Empire is not threatened fatally, we will not take action, how about it?"
My goal has been achieved, I nodded and said: "Deal."
To be honest, dealing with Tian Yun is really tiring. However, he is indeed thinking of the common people on the mainland. I can't fault him, but I just feel very useless in my heart.
Tian Yun laughed and said, "Well, it's settled like this."
He turned his eyes to his mother and said, "Do you have any other comments?"
The mother shook her head and said, "I just hope that you don't make things difficult for Xiang'er."
