Chapter 36: Engagement, entering the secret realm!

The Human Emperor agreed, and Mrs. Yang smiled even more. She quickly saluted and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your wonderful son-in-law!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your wonderful son-in-law!" All civil and military officials congratulated him.

Suddenly, there was a flood of congratulations, pushing the atmosphere of the birthday banquet to its peak.

After the Human Emperor agreed, the news immediately spread throughout the thirty-third level!

The Human Emperor actually agreed to marry Princess Anle Ji Zixuan to Shen Zhui! !

This news is too explosive, because before this, almost everyone thought that Princess Anle would marry into the Fan family. But unexpectedly, he was eventually betrothed to the champion!

"What, actually made His Majesty change his mind?"

Throughout the capital, figures one after another heard the news and couldn't believe their ears. Princess Anle Ji Zixuan is betrothed to Xinli Wuhou Shen Zhui, which means that the situation in the South China Sea Islands will change dramatically in the future!

Kou Mansion.

"Grandpa, Your Majesty, Your Majesty promised to betroth Princess Anle to Shen Zhui!" Kou Zhun walked into the old house extremely excited and reported to his grandfather Kou Xun.

"I know." Kou Xun chuckled and nodded, as if he wasn't surprised at all. "It can be considered as a successful cultivation."

On the twenty-ninth level, in a secret realm, there was a burly man wrapped in flames. He suddenly opened his eyes: "Huh? My precious apprentice is actually betrothed to the champion Hou Shenzui instead of Fan Mansion?"

"That's fine." After that, the burly man continued to immerse himself in the endless flames and practice with his eyes closed.

…………

On June 18th, the birthday banquet ends.

Champion Hou Shen Zhui entered into a marriage contract with Princess Anle. Since the case of protecting the country had just been vindicated, and Shen Zhui was about to enter the secret realm of Wu Hou, the wedding day was postponed seven years later.

In addition, there were also marriages between two neighboring families at the birthday banquet.

Fan Hongyi, the prince's youngest protector, invited the great scholar Chen Zhilin as the third matchmaker to propose marriage to Princess Ji Rong of Qinghui.

After three requests, the Emperor readily agreed to the marriage.

Princess Qinghui Ji Rong was born in Chongzhou in the east. She was the granddaughter of King Bata, although she was much inferior to the South China Sea Islands. But the power of her mother's clan is among the best among the princesses.

Princess Qinghui married into the Fan family, which was also a great favor and proved that the Emperor's trust in the left prime minister had not diminished. Many people who knew the inside story suddenly felt that the left prime minister was unfathomable.

If the Fan family continues to resist the issue of marrying the Princess of the South China Sea, it will only turn into a party dispute. At that time, not only would Shen Zhui's face look ugly, but the Human Emperor's face would also be difficult to bear.

But the Fan family didn't do this. Basically they didn't make any big moves, and they didn't stop Shen Zhui from proposing marriage.

This move uses retreat to advance. Let Fan Hongyi successfully marry Princess Qinghui, but if he had to endure it to the end, no other princess, not even the Princess Fan family would be able to marry one.

But Fan Hongyi doesn’t think so at all!

Although the power of Princess Qinghui's mother clan is not bad, it is completely incomparable to Princess Nanhai.

For the Fan family, Princess Qinghui is just the icing on the cake. There is no difference between having one more support from King Bata and one less! But Ji Zixuan is different. As long as he becomes her husband-in-law, with the support of the forces in the South China Sea Islands, the Fan family's power can be expanded to the southern continent and the vast territory of the sea!

Moreover, excluding the exchange of interests. Fan Hongyi had regarded Ji Zixuan as his treasure before, but now she was snatched away by Shen Zhui who came out halfway.

This is simply a great shame and humiliation for him!

"Shen Zhui!" Fan Hongyi stared coldly at Shen Zhui's back. A storm blew from his eyes, seeming to swallow him up.

Shen Zhui felt something in his heart. He looked back and met Fan Hongyi's eyes.

After giving the other party a faint look, Shen Zhui looked away.

No matter what the prince Shaobao thinks, it is no longer important now.

As for whether the other party will take revenge for personal reasons, just come over!

Outside the capital, there is the royal city of Peichuan Kingdom in the eastern continent.

In this royal city, there is a tall palace, and inside the palace, there is a huge water curtain, on which is printed the scene of the thirty-third level in the capital.

The Human Emperor's birthday banquet was celebrated by everyone. Many princes and marquis Wu were unable to come in person due to their missions, so they all sent ceremonial officers to send congratulatory gifts to the capital. Naturally, they all watched the activities at the birthday banquet.

There is a huge pool in the palace. There is a tall, bare-chested man in the pool, who is King Peichuan.

After hearing the Human Emperor's promise, King Peichuan immediately frowned: "What did Fan Wenhan do to let this idiot steal the princess?"

"Buzz~" The mist rose above the pool, and a figure suddenly condensed. The figure in the water gradually became clearer, and soon formed the appearance of a coquettish woman.

"King Yaoshui, what's the matter?" King Peichuan raised his head and asked.

"King Peichuan, do you know what happened at the birthday banquet in the capital?" King Yaoshui's voice was ethereal and melodious.

"Just found out."

"I'm here for Shen Zhui."

"What do you think?"

"This person cannot be kept. If he finds out that you and I were involved in the Protector's case, he will probably be a huge threat when he grows up."

"I don't understand what you are talking about." King Peichuan said calmly. "The case of protecting the country has been settled, and the four great kings have been beheaded. Besides, Shen Zhui is just a fifth-level venerable guy, not even a true god."

"King Peichuan, you don't have to pretend to be stupid." King Yaoshui sneered. "Now that I have found you, of course I know what role you played in it. Although you did not directly participate in the siege and killing of Shen Yin, you secretly sent those 'evidences'..."

"Shut up!" King Peichuan suddenly looked cold, opened his mouth, and a white light suddenly appeared from his throat, defeating the mist figure.

The water mist dissipated, but condensed again in the blink of an eye. The Demonic Water King paid no attention to the angry King Peichuan, but said to himself: "Now he has taken refuge with the Seventh Prince Ji Chen, and has Zhao Xing as his teacher. With the help of resources from the South China Sea Islands, the True God is a sure thing. How do you think he will deal with you after he finds out about this?"

King Peichuan was silent, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

After a moment, King Peichuan nodded coldly and said, "Come on, what should we do?"

………………

After the banquet, the Champion House received a large number of guests.

Shen Zhui kept resting day and night. The original deity and the seven clones went to different places to hold banquets and entertain, but they still felt a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Master Lu Yuanwei and King Zhao both stopped at the Hou Mansion briefly.

King Zhao is responsible for entertaining those true god-level figures, and his master Lu Yuanwei also relieves him of a lot of pressure.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was two months later.

The number of guests of Champion Hou gradually decreased.

Until the end of August, Shen Zhui was invited to the Ministry of Industry and met a special guest in a secret room.

"The Champion." A general with a strong aura and golden armor stood up from his seat immediately after seeing Shen Zhui and stared at Shen Zhui who came from the side hall.

"Who is this lord?" Shen Zhui bowed his hand. He occasionally visited people in the capital, but there were many experts in the Ministry of Industry, and he might not remember them all.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Jin Rong. I come from the Four Great Secret Realms." The man who is about 2.67 meters tall and has a strange black streak on his cheek said with a smile, "The Wuhou Secret Realm is about to open, and I will be here to pick you up. The secret realm.”

"I hear Darao saying that this secret realm of Marquis Wu is not in the capital?" Shen Zhui asked doubtfully.

"In the capital, but not in the capital either." Jin Rong said with a smile. "The foundation and core of the entire four secret realms in the capital are all in the capital. However, the location of the secret realms is the place in the world that corresponds to the space in the capital."

"Huh? It's actually outside the vast world." Shen Zhui was slightly stunned.

"Yes." Jin Rong smiled. "It's like you broke through the void in West Antarctica and stepped through the turbulence of space. The nearest void continent is the critical land, and you can reach it three times.

But if the void is broken close to the capital in the Eastern Continent, the distance from the critical land will have to be tens of billions of miles, and it will take two years to fly in the turbulence of space just by flying with an ordinary dragon-headed ship. This involves the way of space and the change of position. If the champion has understood the way of space, he should be able to understand this truth. "

"I understand." Shen Zhui nodded.

"The vast world is not suitable for strong men to fight." Jin Rong explained. "Because even the Venerable level can break through the gaps in space, it shows that the barriers in the world are not strong. They can't let go at all, let alone fight heartily."

"Even the Venerable is like this, let alone the True God and God King realm. So the four secret realms in the capital are actually outside the world."

Shen Zhui nodded and said, "Then when should I set off?"

"Seven days later, the new batch of talents will enter the General's Secret Realm and Wuhou's Secret Realm respectively, and take a seventh-level warship. It will take about a month to fly."

"It takes a month to fly? So far." Shen Zhui was shocked.

You need to know... A seventh-level warship definitely contains the power of law. Such a magical warship can fly at an astonishing speed. However, even such a powerful warship takes a month to fly. It is conceivable that Knowing how far away it is.

"This is considered short, because this time there is a true god accompanying him, who can fully exert the strength of the seventh-level magic weapon, so it only takes one month to arrive. If an ordinary venerable man controls a building ship to fly, I am afraid it may not take two or three years. We’ve got it.” Jin Rong smiled. "Of course it's also because I'm not in a hurry. If the true god exerts all his control, I'm afraid only seven or eight will be enough."

"It's really scary." Shen Zhui couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

The seventh-level magic weapon is indeed more powerful in the hands of the true god. It can actually shorten the time at such a long distance. Of course, the magical weapons of the warship series consume extremely divine power. If you want to use the full speed of the magical weapons of the warship, even the true gods may not be able to bear it. Of course, if it is just a simple control, it will be very easy, and it will completely consume the power of the law of the warship itself.

"Marquis Champion, in seven days, you can come to the Xuanmen Passage in the capital and wait." After Jin Rong finished, he resigned.

Only Shen Zhui was left in the living room.

…………

After returning from the Ministry of Industry, Shen Zhui went straight to the back house of the Hou Mansion.

Huh~ The Hou Mansion occupies an extremely large area, covering a radius of tens of thousands of miles, so Shen Zhui also directly flies to the school

"There are only seven days left. During these seven days, I have been visiting or receiving guests. I have not spent enough time with my adoptive father and stepmother." Shen Zhui shook his head. When we get together on weekdays, I don't feel anything wrong, but when I have to go on a long trip, I feel a little guilty. "I don't know if I can come back after leaving this time, so I have to make good arrangements."

"But now in the Marquis' Mansion in the capital, there is no need to worry about safety issues." Shen Zhui smiled slightly.

The capital was probably the safest place in the world, especially since he was still living on the 29th floor.

"A few days ago, there were some young and talented princes and princes who asked someone to come to visit their adopted father and adopted mother. They seemed to be interested in getting married. I don't know if Kong Yangzhou is worried or not." Shen Zhui let go of his spiritual thoughts, smiled slightly, and suddenly Searching for the whereabouts of his adoptive father and others.

The sworn sister Shen Xinlan is very talented herself, and she often gives Shen Xinlan treasures and is often a sparring partner. Therefore, Shen Xinlan also broke through to the Venerable level very quickly.

Shen Xinlan is only one year older than herself!

He broke through to the Venerable realm in his early twenties. This talent alone is enough for many people to cross the threshold. Moreover, because she was awarded the title of Champion Marquis, Shen Xinlan was awarded a fourth-grade imperial concubine. Later, she was officially adopted as an adopted daughter by Concubine Yuan. She was archived by the imperial clan and given the title of Princess 'Lan Xin'.

Therefore, there are many people who want to get married to themselves for various purposes.

"I think my adoptive father and step-mother are all dazzled." Shen Zhui muttered. "I wonder if you still remember this guy Kong Yangzhou."

Although Shen Zhui is very happy that Kong Yangzhou and Shen Xinlan will become a couple, he doesn't have much say in this matter. It depends on what his sworn sister thinks.

"Zhui'er, you're back." Suddenly a voice sounded, and from a distant pavilion, the adoptive mother was waving to him. "Come here and check for your sister. Neither I nor your adoptive father understand these princes and sons..."

"Haha, here we come." Shen Zhui flashed and immediately entered the attic.

…………

"What, you have to be away for so long?" After learning that Shen Zhui was about to enter the secret realm, his adopted father and stepmother asked one after another, regardless of caring about Shen Xinlan's marriage.

"You have been away for so long. Will there be any danger in the place you are going to..." Foster father Shen Shan couldn't help but ask. Although they had been mentally prepared for a long time, they still couldn't help but worry when Shen Zhui really wanted to leave.

"You have been in the secret realm for seven years, and the family has just reunited, and they have to be separated for such a long time..." Shen Xinlan was also a little reluctant.

After returning from the Nine Nether Realm to recover her memory, she resisted at the beginning, gradually became familiar with it, and finally found a feeling of warmth. She enjoyed this kind of day very much.

Here, she is not a sectarian saint, she can do anything freely. It is up to her to decide whether she wants to practice or not.

Even after she found someone she liked, neither her brother Shen Zhui nor her parents opposed her pursuit.

She felt a sense of family affection that she had never had before, and the main reason for all this was because of her adopted brother Shen Zhui. Without him, it would be difficult for Shen Xinlan to imagine the difficult situation she would be in if she lived on her original track. She was extremely grateful to Shen Zhui in her heart.

Shen Zhui was also quite reluctant to give up, but there was nothing he could do about it. Marquis Wu was an honor and also a responsibility. Besides, this is a rare opportunity that no one else can ask for.

"The adopted father and adopted mother are not as exaggerated as seven years." Shen Zhui said with relief. "When I settle down in Wuhou's secret realm, I will have a chance to come back. Besides, the Ministry of Industry has equipped us with a divine wandering order. The divine thoughts can form a phantom body in the cluster, so it is not impossible to see it."

"A real man has ambitions everywhere. If you want to make great achievements, your adoptive father will not stop you." Shen Shan said slowly. "Just remember, Zhui'er, we are still here waiting for you to come back."

"I will." Shen Zhui nodded heavily.

…………

Prince Zhao's Mansion.

"You don't actually need to come to my place. Just spend more time with your adopted father and adopted mother." King Zhao and Shen Zhui sat opposite each other, making tea and drinking together. "Although your cultivation is short, your strength is no weaker than those of the veteran Wuhou. In the endless years to come, you and I, masters and disciples, will have many opportunities to get together. Parting is a necessary part of growth. The strong ones know it. But ordinary people don't. You must be able to understand.”

"Teacher, yes." Shen Zhui nodded. "But the teacher always has to come here for a visit."

Zhao Xin's eyes clearly showed a look of relief.

"I will not advise you to take care of yourself, nor will I tell you to cherish your life." Zhao Xin. "Stability and mediocrity are reserved for the weak. The strong are destined to walk a road full of obstacles!"

"Your parents are now prosperous and wealthy, and your sworn sister's marriage is so grand that hundreds of families are asking for it, all because you are the champion and have been granted a marriage by the Human Emperor."

"But these are all external forces!"

"Prosperity and wealth are like fleeting clouds. In the past, your ancestor Shen Gong was a highly respected minister, but he always fell down."

"Put aside all your identities, you are still essentially a fifth-level cultivator of the Venerable. You must understand this."

"Now that you have become the Champion, you will inevitably go abroad. In the eyes of those external forces, your reputation will not only not protect your life, but will instead become a favorite on their assassination list!"

"Only your own strength is everything. Remember not to get carried away by the momentary honor and disgrace!"

Shen Zhui took a deep breath.

"You Shen, I am relying on you for the time being, but you are not strong enough yet. If you want to gain a foothold with others, and if you want to keep everything you have from being snatched away by others, you need to work harder and become stronger. "Zhao Xing said in a deep voice.

"Thank you for your teaching, teacher." Shen Zhui nodded heavily.

Indeed, he has been feeling quite proud these past few days.

However, since he was able to steal this marriage from the Fan family, others may not have the idea of stealing things from him!

Only the strong can protect everything now!

…………

Yuehua, Eastern Suburb Villa.

This is a secret mansion of the Seventh Prince Ji Chen.

Under the bamboo forest courtyard, two close figures were printed upside down on the ground. The low sound of the piano came out, and the bamboo forest in the courtyard swayed accordingly.

"National Memorial is too sad, please don't play it anymore." Shen Zhui said softly.

"But "Guan Ju" is too short." Zixuan muttered. "You don't want to write more songs for me."

"Then, should I write to you now?" Shen Zhui held Zixuan in his arms and gently stroked her head.

"Okay!" Zixuan was delighted, but in the blink of an eye she shook her head again and leaned against Shen Zhuihuai. "You are going to leave tomorrow, so don't worry about me. It's very difficult to write sacred poems."

"For you, it's worth all the effort."

"Hmph, Shen Zhui, why didn't I notice you were so glib before?"

"Why am I so glib? I obviously mean it sincerely. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com"

"Hey~ I haven't welcomed you yet..."

"Your Highness Princess, if you don't believe me, why don't you give it a try?"

"Huh? How is this...ah, um..."

After a while, a blushing Zixuan pushed Shen Zhui away, stood up, and shouted angrily: "You Shen Zhui, how dare you be frivolous with the princess!"

"Princess, spare your life, I will accept the punishment." Shen Zhui said exaggeratedly.

"Then you are, how should I punish you?" Zixuan said with a smile.

"You're going to punish me to do it again?"

"Bah! Ah, what are you doing... uh uh..."
