Chapter 638: Chapter 135: Bending the Bow and Holding the Horse_3

"My Lord, several chieftains of the Water Mink People from the Mink Clan are here to propose an alliance through marriage with us." Butler Jabbar coughed twice, subtly reminding his boss.

"The Water Mink People want to form an alliance through marriage? What kind of marriage? Did the kingdom abolish the tradition of intertribal marriage or something?" Liu Zhenhan was utterly baffled.

"No wonder the outside world once had a very low opinion of you as a priest. You obviously lack essential knowledge about priestly duties. Although the rituals involved in priesthood ceremonies are complicated and dry, it would be a serious mistake for a great priest to ignore this learning." Elder Andulan expressed his helpless frustration with an exaggerated expression: "My beloved Lord, a thousand years ago, during the heyday of the Bimon Empire, only the intertribal marriages of the Mink Clan’s Water Mink People and the Cicada People of the Skade Clan were permitted and publicly acknowledged within the kingdom! Now, the Cicada People of the Skade Clan, two historically intermarried races, have returned to their homeland, it’s natural for the old affairs to resurface."

"A thousand years ago, the Saintess who maintained the sacred flame of the temple was succeeded by the Bimon First Beauty Diao Chan from the Diao Chan Tribe." The penguin butler, Jabbar, said respectfully: "Although offspring of the Mink Clan and the Skade Clan, like the Mink people and the Mule People of the Naidi Tribe--a result of mule and horse interbreeding--do not have the right to reproduce, the girls of the Diao Chan Tribe are recognized by us, Bimonians, as one of the most beautiful races. They are even more gorgeous than the girls of the famous four beauties-- Fawkes, Smey, Medusa, and Yufrey. Hence, only the Diao Chan girls are eligible to worship the never-extinguishing flame of the altar and become the Saintess."

"The top beauty of Bimon? More beautiful than the four beauty races? Diao Chan?" Liu Zhenhan couldn’t close his mouth for a long time.

"This is the first time we’ve heard of such a legend too, quite refreshing." Korina and Bellamy winked at each other in amusement. They absolutely couldn’t believe that the Cicada People, who were as black as coal, could produce the top beauty of Bimon. In their view, among the existing four beauties of Bimon, whether it’s Fox People’s Fawkes or the Smey Clan’s Swan, or the Butterfly Clan and Medusa, none of these would likely give way to the Cicada People in the competition for the top beauty.

"So, did you agree?" Liu Zhenhan finally snapped back to reality and asked Elder Andulan.

"Of course not." Elder Andulan raised his eyebrows: "The Skade clan has only a handful of people now. If they produce another unable-to-reproduce hybrid, it will greatly reduce their population. What if the clan goes extinct!"

"My Lord, the temple might exert pressure on you in the future," Butler Mr. Jabbar grunted.

"I don’t oppose free love. However, arranged marriages are out of the question. If a maiden of the Skade Clan and a young man of the Mink Clan fall in love, it’s perfectly natural, but forceful intervention isn’t acceptable," Liu Zhenhan laughed heartily: "Forced figs aren’t sweet. The temple controls heaven and earth, surely they can’t even control this."

"I fully support your thoughts. In fact, the Skade Clan’s current population can’t afford such experiments," said Elder Andulan, wearing a ’I knew you’d say that’ expression.

"Has a mercenary from Dorott Duchy ever been here? I’ve recruited a mercenary corps called the Fierce Tiger Mercenary Corps. " Liu Zhenhan, noticing that the Naga mage had finished eating, hurriedly asked.

"Several human mercenaries came here to survey the land a few days ago. They brought a letter of authority with your handwritten signature, which we have confirmed. They have already returned," Butler Jabbar wore a light smile, "Judging from their appearances, they seemed quite satisfied. Especially after seeing several shops from Dorott Duchy starting to establish here, they said they’d rush back to make plans and arrange affairs."

"This is the best solution. I am here this time to bring all our militia fighters to fight in the underground and protect Emerald. The job will be handed over to the Slave Warriors. The women and elders the Mammoth Clan and Hippopotamus Tribe also need to shoulder this responsibility. Given their statures, they should be able to handle regular guarding duties. Beside my bedroom, there’s a Wind Tunnel Magic Teleportation Array which will bring someone back once a day, without accidents," Liu Zhenhan looked at Korina and Bellamy, smiling: "Also, nearly six hundred Taurens will be arriving here. Make arrangements for that."

"No problem." Butler Jabbar held his head high, "The caves of Emerald are very spacious, and we have an absolutely sufficient food reserve. This time, we’ve purchased a lot of cattle and grain."

"We will become rich in the future! I don’t mind giving those shops of human blacksmiths to people like Medusa and Lord Mourinho’s student Cui Beixi. This time in the underground, I found excellent blacksmiths. Hehe, steel ingredients don’t cost a penny, just scoop directly from the lava flow, gosh, this is like scooping money and literally growing money on trees. Coins are flying into the pocket," Liu Zhenhan laughed heartily: "We can have a big sale!"

"With the Space Ring, we’ve saved a lot of effort," Elder Andulan laughed.

"Damn!" Hearing this, Liu Zhenhan grinned and suddenly slapped his forehead, "How could I forget to use the Space Ring to fetch all the remaining Taurens over this time! I really am incredibly stupid!"
