Chapter 1088: Chapter 1088: Imperial Son-in-law Runs Away from Marriage

In an ancient galaxy, a family elder was leading his clan members in enshrining a golden carp retrieved by a disciple.

His eyes were shining with excitement as he introduced, "Fellow clan members, our ancestors have blessed us, allowing our descendants to obtain such a transformative object. This fish is the legendary Phoenix Brocade Carp, usually found only in the Phoenix Divine Nest. If its bloodline is refined, it could greatly benefit us cultivators. Let us all pray and thank our ancestors for this gift. We must refine this fish carefully and not waste a single drop of its blood."

"Thank you, ancestors!"

the elder shouted.

A crowd of clan members followed suit, shouting, "Thank you, ancestors."

In other ancient galaxies, those who obtained a Phoenix Brocade Carp conducted elaborate sacrificial ceremonies.

This fish is rare and should be treated as a treasure.

On Earth, Long Fei and his group were feasting joyously, gulping down wine and swiftly devouring a fish.

Chu Feng, rubbing his belly, rolled on the ground yelling, "Fuck, what kind of fish is this! I only ate a piece of its meat, and it feels like my body is about to split open."

Long Fei, drunkenly said, "It must be something good, South Yangtze, save the fish intestines and feed them to the dog tomorrow."

He was still thinking about Bald Dog, who had been sent out with the Ground Rat Demon King to gather information and establish a network since their arrival.

In the yards of Princes and Dukes in Chang’an City, there were burrows dug by the Earth Rat clan everywhere.

Wang Xiaoya, with her eyes closed, felt an unprecedented comfort, as if she had broken free from shackles, and her veins were reviving.

Wang Jie belched, suddenly emitting a red light that burnt a hole through the tent above.

He quickly covered his mouth, exclaiming in surprise, "Oh my god, we haven’t been poisoned, have we?"

Murong Chong, inspecting the hole above, pondered, "This fish is strange, possessing a strong fire attribute in its bloodline. If we refine it properly, it might unlock another layer of our physical limitations."

The others exchanged glances, sitting down to ponder deeply.

Had other galaxies known how they treated this Phoenix Brocade Carp, they would be heartbroken and curse, "What a waste, what a waste!"

The next day, Bald Dog and Ground Rat Demon King met up with them, just in time for the last bits of fish intestines.

Bald Dog complained loudly, "Master, could you at least leave some meat? Why did you have to eat even the bones?"

Long Fei slapped his forehead, having just awakened from meditation, clueless as to who swallowed the bones.

He glanced over and saw Spider Queen blushing silently, most likely the one who ate them.

He didn’t expose her, saving her some face, then instructed Bald Dog and Ground Rat Demon King to continue gathering information in Chang’an City.

In his absence, they were to obey orders from Liuu Jiangnan.

The two Demon Kings accepted the mission zealously, and Murong Chong gave them another opportunity.

On a petal, a totem of the Nine-Headed Wolf King was handed to Bald Dog.

And another petal with a totem of a Horned Rat King, given to Ground Rat Demon King.

The Horned Rat King looked like a rat, and Murong Chong didn’t know what Divine Beast it related to, possibly linked to the rat clan.

The two Demon Kings excitedly thanked him profusely, almost ready to hug Murong Chong and kiss him.

Damn it, they thought, if only they had come earlier, they could have caught some fish meat.

Now, it wasn’t too bad they ended up getting divine-blood petals, which were extremely beneficial for their bloodline’s development.

After all the farewells, Long Fei, Chu Feng, Wang Xiaoya, Murong Chong, and Wang Jie left Chang’an City together.

Yu Ping and Jiu Ge were left in Chang’an City by Wang Xiaoya, waiting for someone from her mother to come and liaise.

As for the mundane affairs, Wang Xiaoya did not inform her mother, asking Yu Ping and Jiu Ge to keep it secret.

The maidservants were originally following Wang Xiaoya, but recently, with constant chances, they had been bought over by Long Fei.

Not long after their departure, an Imperial Decree was issued from the Imperial City, proclaiming to all under heaven.

"Great Xia Country’s martial arts competition for marriage has come to a successful conclusion. The participant Long Fei, with unmatched literary and martial prowess, has greatly pleased Us. We have decided to make him the Imperial Son-in-law and have chosen a date for him to wed Princess of Pure Peace. By Our command."

As soon as the imperial announcement was made, everyone was shocked.

At this moment, the name Long Fei became nationally renowned, even common folk in the streets knew of him.

Some shouted it was unfair because there were three finalists who returned, and at the very least, a final showdown was necessary.

Others protested, having heard from their sect disciples that all the elite disciples had returned, but merely encountered an accident in the tunnel and were now rushing from the Northern Cold Continent to Great Xia Country.

Some complained that there was insider dealing, an unwritten rule, demanding Long Fei to stand up and fairly compete again with the geniuses from various major sects.

Various voices filled the air, while Liuu Jiangnan cheered happily.

The final result of this bet had once again brought him a huge profit.

The same family that had been skeptical of him was now frequently sending people to contact him to curry favor.

Originally, the family had intended to hand over the position of Family Head to Liuu Yichen.

This cousin of his who was cultivating in Kunlun, was now in the Northern Cold Continent howling at the sky, "Travelled yesterday, traveling today, will travel tomorrow, when will I ever get out of here!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Other geniuses also wailed like ghosts and howled like wolves, itching to tear Long Fei apart.

They were in the Northern Cold Continent, unable to find any point of reference, could only rush about blindly.

Only at night, when the stars appeared, could they somewhat discern their directions.

Even Shenxu-born Jiang Chuan, who had always lived on the ice plains, was utterly baffled.

He had never ventured so deep into the ice plains before, and only now realized how vast this place was.

If they couldn’t find a Teleportation Array, who knew how long they would have to walk to return.

Not long after the Imperial Decree was issued, another explosive news came from Chang’an City.

The newly appointed Consort Prince had fled from his marriage and had already left Chang’an City.

Great Xia Country was once again in turmoil, a day filled with continuous surprises, utterly unexpected by the spectating masses.

To be the Royal Consort Prince was an opportunity many dreamed of obtaining, yet this Consort Prince had fled?

Rumors spread amongst the common folks that the princess was too ugly, scaring the Consort Prince away.

Some felt relieved, saying they had known early on that the princess was ugly, hence deliberately lost during the competition.

Otherwise, how could it have been Long Fei’s turn to win?

In the Princess Mansion, Ji Wanrong received the news, her nose crooked with anger, and slashed her Rosewood table in half with a sword.

In the Third Prince’s Mansion, Ji Haotian flipped the table and cursed at his subordinates, "Scram, scram, a bunch of good-for-nothings, all damn good-for-nothings. What ’number one under heaven,’ what ’sect genius,’ can’t even kill a wild brat, truly wasting this prince’s feelings!"

While the common folks gossiped and treated this as trivial entertainment, the news was known by even the Barbarian Tribe that was on good terms with Great Xia Country.

A voice from the Barbarian Tribe stated they didn’t mind the princess’s looks. As long as the Old Emperor agreed, they were willing to send emissaries to establish marital ties with Great Xia Country.

The princess disappeared the same day, and no one knew where she had gone.

Only Liuu Jiangnan knew that this woman had gone mad, directly breaking into the Imperial Army camp, placing a sword on his neck, demanding he lead the way to find Long Fei.

Right now, all she wanted was to slaughter that bastard.
