Pa Lai was stunned and said, "I said Lei Xiang, when did you have another uncle?"

I smiled slightly and said, "You don't know this, my uncle is the current king of the Dragon God Empire." There are a lot of big names in the fortress, and I'll introduce you one by one later, so I'm sure you'll be surprised. ”

Pa Lai patted his strong chest muscles and said, "I'm a dignified mountain dwarf king, what character can surprise me? Isn't it the king of the Dragon God Empire here?"

I smiled mysteriously at him and said, "You'll find out later." ”

Rivo in the air was a little stunned on the back of the dragon, urging his mount, the dragon, to fly back to the fortress.

The gates of the city creaked open, and two groups of human heavily armored infantry ran out of the fortress in order, numbering about a thousand, each covered with heavy armor, and the whole body was 100% completely covered by armor, and the scene could only be seen through the gaps in the helmets.

"Kick, kick, kick!" their footsteps were neat and regular, and soon the swallow wings were lined up and appeared in front of the dwarves like a trumpet.

I bowed my head and said, "Let's go, old Palai." ”

Palai held up his most powerful weapon of the dwarves, the Dark Electric Axe, which had been crafted by the most outstanding of the dwarves, and shouted, "Sons, let's go." ”

As I walked towards the fortress, I asked Palai, "Since Elder Shui Linglong told you about my marriage, when will they arrive?"

Palai said: "Don't worry, it should be fast, we set off for a few days first, but their elves have wings, and they shouldn't be slow, so they should arrive in a few days." ”

As he spoke, we had already entered the Stru Fortress, and Zi Yan actually greeted him in person, and everyone followed behind him.

I hurriedly said: "Lao Palai, let me introduce you, this is my uncle, His Majesty Ziyan, the king of the current Dragon God Empire. ”

Palai strode forward and laughed loudly: "Hello, King Ziyan, we dwarves have taken the liberty to come here, so we didn't cause you any trouble." ”

Zi Yan smiled and said, "How can you cause trouble? It is our honor that you can come to Lei Xiang's wedding, I am too late to be happy, hurry, please inside." ”

If you want to win people's hearts, I'm afraid no one can compare to Ziyan.

Sure enough, Pa Lai was in a good mood when he heard his words, and said with a smile: "We mountain dwarves have not walked around the continent for a long time, and it is also my honor to meet the king of the Dragon God Empire today." ”

A deep voice sounded: "Who are you?" It was the Dragon King Jin Ge Chan Bi Yin who spoke.

Pa Lai was stunned for a moment and said, "That's my ancestor, you...... How do you know?"

Jin Gecan Biyin snorted and said, "When I met Parda, he was still a child, and we used to travel on the mainland together. Well, yes, you're stronger than him. ”

Palai was shocked and said, "What? You actually know my ancestor, you...... How old are you?"

I laughed and said, "You will be surprised when I said it just now, how about it, now that I have taken it, this is a famous person, as soon as you tell him his identity, you will know why he knows your ancestor." According to what Elder Shui Linglong said at the beginning, you still belong to the three powerful clans of the ancient times, and he is the king of the dragon clan, Jin Gecan Biyin. ”

Palai opened his mouth wide and looked at Jin Ge Chan Bi Yin speechless.

Lan Er stepped forward, looked at the surprised Pa Lai, and said with a smile: "What are you doing with your mouth open so wide, do you want to eat it just now?"

Jin Gechan snorted, and a sound wave suddenly rushed towards us.

Palai's whole body was shocked, he came to his senses, bowed down and said, "It turned out to be His Majesty the Dragon King, and the dwarf Palai is polite." ”

Jin Ge Chan Bi Yin sighed and said: "After so many years, our original three major races are now gone, and the continent is already the world of humans, demons and orcs, so there is no need to be polite." ”

Zi Yan had been quietly watching their conversation, and only then did he say at this moment: "Dwarf friends have come from afar, please come into the city, let me do my best to be a landlord." ”

After meeting Jin Gechan Biyin from Palai, he lost that sense of pride and led the dwarves into the fortress of Stroul with everyone.

Ziyan ordered Rivo to vacate a piece of the camp of the defending troops as a resting place for the dwarves, and to hold a banquet for Palai.

The banquet opened two large tables, Ziyan, Mother, Panzong, Jin Yin, Jin Ge Can Bi Yin, Lan Er, Lan Xuan, Tianyun, Li Feng, Yue Wuya, Pa Lai, and me and the three girls sat at one table, and the three marshals and Bai Lixiao accompanied the rest of the members of the Holy Dragon Knights to sit at one table.

Baili Xiao's gaze often touches me, but he has never had a chance to talk, and judging from his look, he and Crane should have developed well.

Probably because of the presence of Jin Gechan Biyin, Palai drank a lot more wine than the last time I drank with him, and he drank neither fast nor much.

After thirty years of drinking, Zi Yan said, "Lei Xiang, now you should explain to everyone what happened to the Elf King, right?"

With his question, all eyes were on me.

Jin Ge Chan Bi Yin nodded and said, "Yes, I just wanted to ask you, how did you become the king of the elf clan, you are not an elf." And as far as I know, after the number of elves decreased, the ancestral rules of the elven king ruling the whole clan had long been canceled, and the elders elected by the elves were unified and led. If it weren't for Palai calling you the Elven King, I really couldn't believe that was the truth. ”

I sighed in my heart, I can't tell the truth, I can't tell everyone present that I am the inheritor of a first-class god!

Thinking of this, I said: "Actually, it's just a coincidence, when I accidentally encountered the demons stealing the treasures of the elves, I helped them grab them, and later helped them get back a few other treasures, these treasures are very important to the elves." After getting all the treasures back, they insisted on worshipping me as their elf king, and I had no choice but to agree. ”

Pa Lai smiled: "The treasure you said refers to the heart of water, it turns out that you really helped them find it, no wonder those old guys will nominate you as the elf king." ”

I glared at him, and with a slight push on my foot, I kicked a faint stream of energy into Parai's leg.

I don't know how much he knows, and it's not good to say that he did.

Parais was beaten, frowned, and didn't say any more.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, and I vaguely heard someone shouting: "I know she is inside, you let me in, and if you stop me again, I will be welcome......"

Who is so bold that Ziyan still dares to break in here?

Zi Yan's face sank, and his eyes turned to Rivo.

Rivo stood up knowingly, and suddenly there was a thud and a few screams outside, as if someone was fighting.

Rivo's face changed, and he turned and walked out the door.

"Boom, boom!" The main entrance to the hall shattered and fell to the ground.

Almost none of us present were weakling, and the dragoons sitting at the table outside all stood up with angry expressions on their faces.

The figure flashed, and a person in civilian clothes appeared in front of everyone, his face was sad and indignant, and the clothes on his body were torn in several places, which should have been caused by the fight just now.

This man is none other than Rivo's only son, the dragon knight Riva. My heart trembled, and I turned my head to look at Zi Yan.

Zi Yan's face turned a little pale and lowered her head.

Riva seemed to have only Zi Yan in her eyes, ignoring everyone else.

As soon as he entered the door, his gaze moved directly to Zi Yan's body, and he shouted in a trembling voice: "Zi Yan, Zi Yan, it's really you." As soon as I heard that you were back, I immediately ......"

With a snap, Riva was slapped out by an enraged Rivo and slammed into the wall beside him.

"You bastard, who told you to come here? Come on, drag him out for me. ”

Zi Yan said coldly, "Wait a minute." He stood up, his face calm, and said lightly: "Marshal Rivo, is he your subordinate?"

It can be seen that Ziyan is really angry.

In front of so many people, especially many leaders of various ethnic groups, Riva's performance made him too unspeakable.

Rivo's whole body was shocked, and he fell to his knees with a thud: "Your Majesty, he is the only son of the minister, and it was the minister's intuition that allowed him to break in." For the sake of the minister's loyalty to the empire for many years, please spare the child's life. "Rivo can't take care of his son anymore.

Zi Yan said in a deep voice: "Marshal Rivo, you should know the truth of military law. Although he is your son, he trespasses on heavy land and deserves ......"

"Wait. I stood up and said to Ziyan: "Uncle, please let me handle this matter." Riva is my senior, he came here because of me, don't blame him, there are some things that I should make clear to him. ”

Zi Feng beside Zi Yan also stood up and whispered a few words in Zi Yan's ear, and I listened intently, he seemed to be explaining the relationship between me and Riva.

Zi Yan's lips moved slightly, and he sent a voice to me: "He is the only son of Marshal Rivo, why do I want to kill him, but he just made me too unable to get off the stage." The Duke has already explained to me your relationship, and although you are rivals in love, you should let him go for my sake! After all, Marshal Rivo is the pillar of the Emperor's [***] team, and he must not be let go of it. ”

I have nothing but pity for Riva, how could I hurt him?, nodding slightly, I stepped out of my seat and walked towards Riva step by step.

Zi Yan suddenly shouted, "Lei Xiang, I'll go with you." With that, she ran up to me, and I saw tears in her eyes.

Riva had been chasing her for so many years, and she felt something in her heart, so I squeezed her little hand and walked towards Riva together.

Rivo looked at us nervously, but with Ziyan present, he could only kneel there with an anxious look on his face.

Zi Yan sighed and said something to Rivo, and Rivo's facial muscles relaxed a little and stood up.

Zi Yan said: "Let the young people's affairs be solved by themselves, let's continue to eat." With that, he sat down again, as if nothing had happened.

Zi Yan and I walked up to Riva, and I stretched out my right hand to Riva, who had fallen to the ground.

Riva snorted coldly, and stood up on his own, his cheeks that had just been beaten were already high and swollen, and a wisp of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.

Zi Yan lowered her head and said, "Brother Riva, why are you doing this?"

I was afraid that Riva would take any more drastic actions, so I said in a deep voice: "Let's go out and talk, there are a lot of people here." ”

Riva glared at me fiercely, turned around and walked out.

I took Zi Yan's cold little hand and followed, and I whispered to her, "Yan'er, this matter will be resolved sooner or later, let's make it clear to him today." I know very well that he truly loves you, and you can rest assured that I will not hurt him. ”

Zi Yan nodded slightly, her face full of embarrassment.

Out of the Provisional Marshal's Mansion, Riva stood on the road, glaring at me with a raging fire in his eyes.

"Riva Senior......"

"Don't call me senior, there is a kind, you come with me. So saying, he turned and ran toward the gate. He ran towards the city gates that led to the interior, which were generally undefended.

I sighed helplessly, hugged Ziyan's willow waist and followed.

Soon we were out of the gates, and Riva kept running forward until he crossed a small hill, when he stopped.

I understood what he meant, here, the people patrolling the fortress were not visible.

Riva looked at me with a slight gasp: "Lei Xiang, if you are a man, just have a fair duel with me, I don't ride a dragon." ”

I sighed and said, "Senior Riva, why are you doing this? I know it's me who is wrong, but Zi Yan really has no feelings for you, she likes me, you should understand that feelings can't be forced." ”

I have no intention of fighting him at all, and with his current skills, even if he comes to ten or eight, he can't be my opponent.

Riva was stunned for a moment when she heard my words, and turned her head to look at Zi Yan.

Zi Yan didn't make eye contact with him, and bowed her head and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Riva, the sweetheart I told you about at the beginning was Lei Xiang." I know you've been very nice to me all these years, you're a good person, maybe I'm not the right person for you. I'm sorry, I'm sure you'll be able to find one better than me. ”

Riva looked at her blankly and muttered, "Why? Why? I can't compare to him, I'm not inferior to him in terms of looks, and I'm the youngest dragon knight in the Empire." Ah, by the way, did you fall in love with his family background? I also just learned about it in the past few days, and he is actually His Majesty's nephew. Is that because of this?"

Zi Yan said slightly angrily: "Riva, who do you think of me? I like Lei Xiang for no other reason, it's just because I like him as a person." I respect you and ask you to speak politely. ”

Riva laughed bitterly: "You're polite, what are you saying now?" Lei Xiang, let me ask you, why did you snatch my most beloved person? You already have Zixue, you are not satisfied, and you want to snatch my Ziyan. ”

His words made me feel sad for a while, but it is difficult to explain such things as feelings, and I know that he will not listen to what I say now.

Zi Yan said angrily: "Riva, you heard clearly, I was never yours, I used to belong to no one except my parents, and now, I am about to marry Lei Xiang, he is my beloved man, and he is about to become my husband, my people and my heart belong to him alone." Don't have any illusions, we are coming out today to make it clear to you. ”

Riva looked at Zi Yan in despair and said stupidly: "Zi Yan, are you really so ruthless?"

A trace of unbearability flashed in Zi Yan's eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said: "I'm not ruthless, we have never had any feelings before, we haven't before, and we won't have it in the future." ”

Riva staggered back a few steps, blood fading from his face.

I took a step forward and sighed, "Senior Riva, I'm sorry, I really can't let Ziyan." Like you, I love her deeply. ”

The despair in Riva's eyes gradually turned to hatred, and he clenched his fists and walked towards me step by step.

Zi Yan stood in front of me and said, "What are you going to do?"

Riva said hatefully: "Zi Yan, you get out of the way, this is a matter between me and him." ”

I pulled Zi Yan aside and whispered to her, "Don't worry, I'll be fine, don't you still believe in my strength?"

Zi Yan nodded lightly and stepped aside.

Riva said coldly: "Lei Xiang, you took away Zi Yan, I don't know if you have the courage to accept my challenge?"

Riva wasn't like this in the first place, because of Zi Yan, hatred clouded his reason.

I sighed in my heart and said, "Senior Riva, I am no longer the Lei Xiang I was at the beginning, there is no need for a conflict between us." ”

Riva shouted angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, if you want to marry Ziyan, you will pass me first." With that, he lunged forward, quickly shot in front of me, and punched me in the chest.

The speed at which he used to be proud is now so slow in my eyes that I can see every change in him very clearly.

I didn't have the heart to win, but I didn't dodge when I saw his fist coming to me, and I let his fist hit me in the chest.

Riva's condensed energy exploded in my chest, and I only shook slightly, his strength was not enough to break through my protective fighting qi.

With a bang, Riva took a few steps back, his face flushed, obviously shocked by the force of the shock.

"Stop, Senior Riva, you can't be my opponent, I just said that I am no longer the Lei Xiang I used to be. ”

Riva looked at me dumbfounded, his eyes full of disbelief, and he suddenly yelled, "No. The fit pounced, and his body emitted a silver fighting light, and countless fist shadows conjured up from his hand, attacking every part of my body.

I relied on my mind to control my hands, transforming the sky full of palm shadows to meet his attack, and every punch he threw was caught by me with the palm of my hand, and the fighting energy he sent out with all his strength was completely dissolved by me.

If I wanted to kill him, I could do it with any of the Mad God Fist moves, but I didn't do that because I always felt guilty about him. I waved my arms and defused his attacks again and again, letting him vent, and the sound of energy clashing in the air kept coming.

Riva's eyes were bloodshot, and he used all his strength with each blow, and this attack lasted for a long time, and his strength became weaker and weaker, and with such an all-out attack, he had already become the last of the strong crossbows.

If he continues like this, I'm afraid he will die of exhaustion. I burst out with a lot of fighting spirit, and I shook him back a few steps.

"Stop, senior. Do you think it's interesting for us to fight like this? Even if you can win me, what if you can win back Zi Yan's heart? You can't. ”

Riva's clothes were soaked with sweat, he gasped and looked at me, his face was red and white, and suddenly, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his body fell limply.

Zi Yan walked behind me: "You killed him?"

I shook my head and said, "Is there any deep hatred between me and him, how can I kill him?" He just lost his strength and became angry, and fainted. Let's go back. ”

I floated up to Riva, picked him up, and returned to the fortress with a gloomy look on my face.

Back at the Temporary Marshal's Mansion, it was already a lot quieter, except for Ziyan and Landis, the rest of the people were there, and they seemed to be waiting for us to come back.

Rivo was pacing the hall with an anxious look on his face, and when he saw us enter, he hurried to meet us.

I handed Riva to him and said, "Marshal Rivo, Senior Riva is out of strength, you should take good care of him." We've made it clear to him that he may not be able to accept it for a while. ”

Rivo probed his son's pulse, nodded and said, "Thank you, it's all dogs who don't know the severity." ”

Duke Zifeng stepped forward and said, "Marshal, I'm sorry, this ......"

Rivo shook his head at him and said, "Lord Duke, you don't need to say anything, it's just that my son is not blessed." Hasn't Ling Ai found a better home?" With that, he turned around and walked out with Riva in his arms.

Looking at his back with some vicissitudes of life, I also felt a little depressed in my heart.

The mother stood up and said, "Since Xiang'er has returned, let's all go and rest." Makes you worried. ”

Tianyun glanced at me with a smile on his face, and turned to leave with his own regiment, and as soon as the seventeen dragoons left, the hall suddenly seemed empty.

Jin Gecan Biyin pulled Lan Er, who was a little dissatisfied, and left, I don't know if he went back to the room to make the next generation.

Zi Yan returned to Zi Feng's side, sat with Zi Xue, lowered her head and didn't speak, Riva made it like this, she must have felt uncomfortable in her heart.

In order to enliven this somewhat oppressive atmosphere, I walked up to Brother Baili Cry, stretched out his hand to Baili Cry and said, "You must be Marshal Baili Cry, one of the three marshals of the empire." ”

Baili cried for a moment, obviously didn't expect me to greet him, so he hurriedly stood up, held my hand and said, "Yes, I'm Baili crying." ”

I smiled and said, "I've heard the name of the marshal for a long time, but now I see it, and it's really better to meet than to be famous." ”

The look on Baili Cry's face was always serious: "You're welcome." "It seems that he has some prejudices against me because of what he just did.

The three generalissimos of the empire have always been harmonious, and he will inevitably be somewhat hostile to me.

I turned my head to Baili and smiled: "Brother Baili, how are you doing, is Crane okay?"

Baili smiled and said: "She is very good, I really want to thank Brother Lei at the beginning! In a few days, we will also get married." ”

I rejoiced, "That little brother is here to congratulate you first." ”

Baili cried and said, "You know." ”

Baili smiled a little embarrassed and said: "Yes, Brother Lei and Crane are friends, we met through Crane, if it weren't for Brother Lei, Crane wouldn't accept me now." ”

Baili nodded his head, glanced at me, and said, "Don't disturb your rest, brother, let's go." As he spoke, he turned his head and walked out the door, perhaps he wanted to comfort Rivo.

Baili smiled at me with a helpless expression, and said in a low voice: "My eldest brother is like this, Brother Lei, don't mind, I'll go first." ”

I smiled and said, "I won't mind." When you marry Crane, I will try to drink your wine. ”

"Okay! Brother Lei must come then. ”

"Definitely. "I watched Brother Baili cry disappear at the door, and then I came back to my senses.

Originally, I was very happy to come back today, and I would soon be able to marry my fourth daughter, and my wish was about to come true, but let Riva stir it up like this, and my good mood disappeared completely.

"Fourth, don't keep crying with a sad face, the one who is about to get married, be happy. By the way, we have already set up your wedding room. But everyone agrees that you must wait until the day of your wedding to let you in, and when the time comes, you will definitely be pleasantly surprised. Panzong walked up to me and put his arm around my shoulder.

I looked at him gratefully and said, "I'm sorry everyone." ”

Pan Zong said: "You hurry up and take a rest, your room has already been arranged." I'm going to go out. ”

I was stunned for a moment and said, "Why are you going?"

Jin's voice came: "What else can you do, it's not to meet his dragon sister." Let's go too. ”

It turned out that Xinxin also came this time, no wonder Panzong could stay so steady.

Pan Zong said angrily: "Where to go, don't follow me." After saying that, he ran out like a smoke.

The gold and silver flashed and chased them out, and in the sound of frolicking, they gradually drifted away.

※※※

It's been three days since I returned to the fortress, and I haven't been idle, either discussing the details of the wedding with Tianyun every day, or going to the high platform outside the fortress to check.

Ziyan didn't know where to live, so he only showed up for a while at noon every day, and would leave after having lunch with us.

I waited and waited, and finally, this morning, the army of the Orc Kingdom arrived, and set up camp in the distance of the fortress.

Although I was anxious to see the Beast Emperor, out of respect for Ziyan, I still didn't leave the fortress immediately.

Noon finally arrived, and Ziyan took Landis and Baili Crying to the Temporary Marshal's Mansion.

According to Tianyun, Rivo has imprisoned Riva, and I don't know what happened to him now.

"Uncle. I saluted Ziyan.

"Well, I've already received a report, and I know that the orcs have arrived, and now it's time to send the demons. Lei Xiang, shouldn't you go over and take a look and talk to the Beast Emperor about the whole plan?"

His words reached my heart, and I hurriedly said, "I'll go there in the afternoon." ”

Panzong said: "I'll go with Jin Yin, our clansmen seem to be here too, just go over and have a look." ”

Zi Yan nodded slightly, and said, "The wedding will be held in a few days, and this temporary marshal's mansion should also be decorated." Marshal Landis, I'll leave it to you here. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, everything here has already been arranged, and the work will start in the afternoon. ”

Zi Yan said: "You must make it jubilant." This is my nephew's wedding, and it can't be shabby. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

As soon as I finished eating at noon, I hurriedly left the fortress of Strull with Panzong and gold and silver, and headed straight for the camp of the orc clan.

It was only when I got closer that I could see the majestic momentum of the orc army.

Compared with before, the orc army is not only more well-equipped, but also the camp tents are arranged in an orderly manner, and the soldiers on patrol are majestic and high-spirited, and they know at a glance that this is an elite division.

Follow-up troops continued to arrive, and it appeared that the army in charge of logistics had arrived.

Panzong turned back to the appearance of nine heads, and the gold and silver also exposed their two big heads, and as soon as we approached, we suddenly encountered a group of werewolf soldiers.

As soon as the werewolf soldiers saw the gold and silver, they immediately knelt on the ground excitedly, and the gold and silver were now majestic, and they pointed fingers at them to lead the way.

Entering the camp, we came directly to the Beast Emperor's Chinese army tent.

"Prince Rui Lei Xiang, Wolf King Gold and Silver, Snake King Panzong ask to see. ”

As soon as the curtain of the tent was raised, several soldiers of the Wild Lion Legion immediately welcomed us in.

"Haha, you're all here. The Beast Emperor's vigorous voice came, and he was dressed in brown armor and greeted him.

I hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Son-in-law Lei Xiang sees my father." ”

"Good boy, get up. ”

I stood up, and a figure flashed out from beside the Beast Emperor: "Big brother, second brother, second sister, fourth brother." "It's Mengke, his outfit is basically the same as the Beast Emperor, except that the circle of daggers around his waist is missing.

"Third brother, you're still here. That's great. I grabbed Monk's hands and said with some excitement.

"How can I not come when you get married? I am your third brother after all. ”

Pan Zong smiled and said, "Okay, our four brothers are finally together again." ”

The Beast Emperor smiled and said, "In the future, your four brothers will be the pillars of my orc clan, and with you here, I can also abdicate with confidence." Ke'er, when this peace negotiation is successful, I will pass the throne to you when I go back, and the orcs will rely on you in the future. ”

Meng Ke was shocked and said: "Father, how can this make you abdicate in the Spring and Autumn Period? What's more, I am still young enough to serve the public." ”

The Beast Emperor said kindly, "How can it be, you are my son, not to mention that there are several of your brothers to help you support the scene." Now if anyone in our orc clan doesn't know your name, if anyone dares to resist, they will be annihilated by thunder. Although such hegemony is not a long-term solution, you can slowly win the hearts and minds of the people. After these years of experience, you have matured, and my father believes that you will be able to do well. My father is already old, can't you let me enjoy a few days of happiness? I have been in power for more than 20 years, and I have finally not let the orc race decline, and this responsibility will be on your shoulders in the future. ”

"Father's ......"

"Okay, don't say any more, I've made up my mind, so be it. The Beast Emperor stopped Meng Ke from continuing, he looked around at us, and said, "Panzong, Jin Yin, although you are all older than me, since you and Ke'er are brothers, I will directly call you by your name." In the future, if anything happens to the orcs, I hope you can lead your people to help. I'm not ordering you now as the Beast Emperor, but pleading with you as the father of Mengke, can you promise me?"
