Shanshan followed her aunt and others back to the Coral Palace in a carriage, the Coral Palace was decorated with lights, a lively and peaceful scene, in order to celebrate the adulthood of the little master of the Coral Palace, a special coming-of-age dinner was held, all the relatives of the Coral Palace who were famous in charge of affairs came to participate, and even the elder of Tonggu, who was too old but asked about political affairs, also attended, in the face of this great elder who was much older than her deceased grandfather, Shanshan completely ignored the surprised and frightened eyes of everyone, Shanshan was still naughty like a child, pulling the white beard of the great elder to be coquettish, It made the Great Elder laugh.

The feast began with a formal pilgrimage and ended with giggling laughter, Shanshan officially became the owner of the Coral Palace, but after many years, Shanshan only remembered that the roast goose that night was particularly delicious, and the laughter during the banquet was particularly warm.
A month later, Shanshan and the Roy people attended the wedding of Miss Longquan, the dragon of the Dragon Clan, who was far away from Misty Island, sent a bunch of congratulatory gifts, and stood on the seashore, watching the luxurious and extravagant wedding ship gradually disappear on the horizon, and the Roy people left tears.
"Today is a happy day, why are you crying!" Sansa asked the Roys.
"No, no, no, I naturally wish Longquan happiness, but I think that she is married so far, I am afraid that she will rarely be able to meet in the future, it is very sad, what if she is not suitable for life over there? What if her husband treats her badly? If it ......," the Rojs began to babble like madness.
"Okay, what did you say? Longquan will definitely be happy, although she is usually more cold and withdrawn, with her beautiful face and bewitching figure, she will definitely be favored by her husband, and besides, she is the eldest lady of our Phantom Dragon Clan, I don't believe that those people in Water Fog Island dare to bully her! Rest assured! Sansa interrupted the Roys and put her arm around her shoulders to comfort her.
The Rojans listened to Sansan's advice, stopped crying, and followed Sansa out of the seashore and went home, when suddenly the Rojans began to sob and wipe their tears again.
"Why are you still sad?" Sansa was puzzled.
"The knight valley of the knight invited me to go to the knight valley tomorrow to watch the martial arts show, I don't want to go, but my father and brother said that the knight valley is a very powerful place, don't let me offend them, I have to go, I really feel a little scared, I don't want to go!" The Roy man said with a look of grievance.
"Oh, you coward, I'll go with you, and I just happen to see what martial arts are!" Shanshan was indeed quite interested, and said with excitement in her eyes.
The Roy man burst into tears and laughed, and grabbed Shanshan's hand: "You must accompany me, fortunately with you with me, you can't marry too far in the future, otherwise what should I do if there is such a difficult thing!" ”
"Okay, well, when you are going to get married one day, first inquire about your husband's surroundings, and I will marry his brother or neighbor!" Sansa said jokingly.
The Roy pouted and turned to ignore her, "People are talking to you about business, but you are making fun of me!" Ignore you! ”
Shanshan laughed and decided not to tease the Roy people anymore, although the Roy people were born beautiful like fairies, but they were born timid, and they were not very good at dealing with the courtesy of so many suitors, and they were disturbed by these stalker boys every day, Shanshan joked, and couldn't help but sigh that she was so mediocre in appearance, she grew so big, and there was no suitor, and she did have a certain blow to the girl who was just starting to fall in love, but Shanshan was born with a boyish heart and quickly forgot about it.
The next day, the sun was shining, the breeze was blowing, and it was a good day, so Shanshan simply combed a high ponytail, a plain and narrow sleeved ankle-length blue dress, and wore a necklace at will to accompany the Roys to the Knight's Valley in a carriage.
The Valley of the Knights is a military base for the Kingdom of Sani, specializing in training soldiers to forge weapons for the kingdom, and due to its proximity to the Forest of the Holy Spirit, it also has frequent contact with the Wraith.
The valley lord of the Valley of Knights is named Ka Yan, handsome and wise, who took over the Valley of Knights at a young age, and managed it in an orderly manner, and in just a few years, he trained several batches of excellent soldiers for the Kingdom of Sani, designed new weapons, and improved the overall combat effectiveness of the army, which was praised by the king and recognized by the prince. His younger brother Ka Yi is also a promising young man, assisting Ka Yan to manage the Knight Valley, and he personally shares the weal and woe with the soldiers, and his reputation is also spread in the Holy Spirit Continent. Ever since he attended the Phantom Clan's Queen Fitty's birthday party in Kadi, and met the first beauty of the Phantom Clan, the Roy, he fell in love with this beautiful girl uncontrollably, and showed his love to the Rojans whenever he had the opportunity.
The fighting arena in the Valley of Knights is famous throughout the Kingdom of Sani, and many nobles regularly come here to watch the fighting for fun. The perimeter of the oval arena is filled with soldiers in full armor, holding spears and shields alof, shouting loudly to cheer for the warriors in the arena! There is a tall tower on the north side of the arena, and the roof of the tower is the best stand, with a wide view and a condescending view, and the Roys, Shanshan and some nobles are arranged on the rooftop, enjoying the same high standard treatment as the nobles.
Shanshan drank a few sips of freshly squeezed juice boredly, watched the competition in the fighting arena, and secretly said in her heart: Fighting is nothing more than that, just a few tall and strong but ugly-looking men fighting back and forth like this, the scene is too barbaric, too bloody, not fun! This Ka Di really doesn't please girls, and he actually pulled a beautiful lady to watch this kind of performance, it's no wonder that the Roy people can have a good impression of you! Sansa shook her head, squinting at the Roys who were too frightened to speak.
The stands were boiling, and the pink-headed nobles who stood up and shouted and cheered with the soldiers had an excited look on their faces, and Ka Di pulled the Rojan eyebrows and introduced every detail of the fighters' fights, commenting on their victories and defeats, completely ignoring the Pale faces of the Rojans.
"Ahem, cough, that, the Roy people are not early, we still have to go to the Tianyu Harem to visit Princess Seli, we said yesterday, let's go back!" Shanshan pretended to remind the Rojans.
"Wait a minute, I arranged a special program today, it's very exciting, you must watch it before leaving, and after that, I'll ask the soldiers to send you to Tianyu Palace quickly." Ka Yi cried bitterly to stay.
The Roy man looked embarrassed and couldn't refuse, so he sat back in his seat and secretly motioned for Shanshan to find an opportunity to leave again. Seeing the reluctance of the Roys, Ka Di hurriedly glanced at the guards beside him, who received the order to hurriedly retreat to arrange the program.
After a few moments, Shanshan heard a large sigh, and when she turned her head and looked down at the situation in the fighting arena, she was also stunned. The side door of the arena opened, and a large group of soldiers pushed an iron cage towards the center of the arena, and inside was an unkempt and ragged man, who was chained all over his body, and his face was hideous like a long-sleepy beast, and he was angry and crazy in the cage, and the iron cage was slammed into a rattle.
The soldiers fastened the iron cage to the center of the arena, carefully opened the cage and quickly ran away. The moment the cage door opened, the man roared out of the cage, trying to escape, but before he could run a few steps, he tripped over the iron rope on his feet, and fell to the ground solidly, his teeth broke his lips and red blood flowed, and the flying dust wrapped his already dirty face, and the mud and blood made him look extremely embarrassed.
There was a burst of laughter on the field, and some nobles were already rolling on the ground with laughter, Shanshan couldn't laugh at all, but her mood was unusually heavy.
"Why is he being chained up?" The Rojans couldn't help but ask.
"He was a captive of our conquest and a slave of our kingdom of Sani, but he didn't listen to the indoctrination and had to bind him to the cruelty and danger," Ka Yi explained slowly.
The bound man got up and frantically tugged at the iron ropes on his body, trying to break free, and soon his hands were covered with blood, but the chains did not move at all.
"That's a chain made of King Kong, how can it be so easy to break free!" Ka Yi explained triumphantly.
There was a burst of exclamations on the field, the small doors of the fighting arena opened, and a giant lion ran out, galloping towards the center of the fighting arena, the lions had shriveled bellies, their eyes were blood-red, and they roared with their huge mouths open to reveal sharp knife-like teeth, flashing with cold light, they had been hungry for too long, and once they were released, they couldn't wait to run to their gourmet ---- "bloody men"
Yes! The Roys covered their eyes with their hands, and they were too frightened to look at them. Shanshan, on the other hand, calmly stared at the slave's every move.
Alack! There was another cheer on the field.
The slave did not seem to be afraid, but was very brave, roaring like a wild wolf to meet the lions that pounced, and after a few rounds, the lions had been repelled by him to a few meters away. He stood panting in front of the iron cage, a few more bright blood marks on his muscular chest, sweat and blood dripping from the ends of his messy hair, his shabby clothes had been torn into strips of cloth by the sharp claws of the lions, and his twisted and hideous face was still full of murderous aura, glaring viciously at the wailing lions at his feet.
The lions howled wildly and began to charge again, and the men were not to be outdone, and their fists as dense as the wind repelled the mad lions again and again; The lions did not give up, they fell again and again and got up again and again, and they were ready to attack again, this is a fight between life and death, and whoever does not do their best will lose their lives.
"Enough! Decide! ”
Finally, when the lions opened their bloody mouths and jumped again to the scarred slaves, Shanshan couldn't stand it anymore, she jumped up from the rooftop, silently recited the incantation, and tapped her jade fingers on each of the lions' heads at a speed that ordinary people could not see with the naked eye; Time seemed to stand still, and the lions all stopped in mid-air in a charging posture. Shanshan spun her body and landed steadily on the top of the iron cage, looking down at the empty-eyed slave at her feet with her head held high, giving him a confident and flamboyant smile.
Ka Yi observed everything in the fighting arena with a little surprise, he didn't expect that a soft girl like Shanshan would have the courage to fight against the beasts, and easily subdue the many beasts without much effort.
The audience was silent, and after a moment of silence, the audience reported warm applause, and the soldiers began to shout and cheer for Shanshan's bravery and superb skills, Shanshan herself stood on a high place, her ears were full of praise and praise, and she was surrounded by admiring and envious eyes, she herself was intoxicated, and felt that at this moment she was incomparably radiant.
Shanshan has earned herself an accolade. A few days later, her heroic deeds in the ring were reinforced, exaggerated. Shanshan suddenly became a celebrity of the Phantom Clan.
"The Phantom Ice Technique is a noble spell of the elf clan, and ordinary people can't learn it, Shanshan is really powerful! It can be applied so skillfully! The Rojs were also amazed.
This slave is Yamo. Yemo stood on the ground, looking up at the girl who was high above, her smile was so bright and eye-catching and innocent in the residual color of the sunset, the darkness in his heart slowly receded, and the murderous aura in his eyes quietly disappeared, he felt that his heart was slowly quieting down but his body was so tired, he slowly closed his eyes and fell.
"This slave will be my person in the future, none of you will want to abuse and play with him anymore, bring him back to the Coral Palace!" The last words that Yamo heard before he went into a complete coma.
Shanshan exchanged a diamond for this slave, although there were many moments when she felt that the diamond was wasted, but that's it, she and this man have been inextricably linked since then, and they can't stop tearing it off. In the years that followed, this slave completely changed the trajectory of her life, and she warned herself countless times that maybe she should not come to Knight Valley on this day, and she should not buy this slave. Maybe if he doesn't show up, her life will have a lot less painful memories.
Yemo lay in a coma on the bed for two days and two nights, before he slowly woke up, the lilac soft bedding exuded a faint fragrance, the crescent white curtain showed a faint light, Yemo felt unprecedented warmth, he thought it was probably a dream, don't wake up, don't wake up, he said to himself, I don't know how long, he fell asleep again, he was too tired. In the dream, the girl with the brown-red hair smiled at him again and again, and the night demon felt that the whole world was warm, so beautiful and intoxicating......
