Chapter 151
“Princess Consort Zhan is so beautiful!”
“I haven’t seen such a beautiful woman before. She is as pretty as a fairy maiden!”
“The rumor is true. Princess Consort Zhan is really more beautiful than the fairy maiden!”
While everyone was still infatuated with Duanmu Xi’s stunning appearance, another continuous red team came from the imperial palace. Every member was dressed in red. They carried a red wooden case in pairs.
Everyone was dumbstruck again to see the red wooden cases carried out.
“Are…those the dowries of Princess Consort Zhan?”
“Gee, how many dowries are there?”
…
Xuanyuan Mo carried Duanmu Xi in his arms and rode his horse to Prince Zhan’s mansion unhurriedly. Everywhere they past, all the people were amazed by Duanmu Xi’s stunning beauty and countless dowries.
“What on earth is Princess Consort Zhan? Why does she have so many dowries?” A man in blue looked at the long red team and couldn’t help exclaiming.
Hearing that, a man in green aside immediately stared at him as if seeing a monster, “What? You don’t know Princess Consort Zhan’s identity?”
The man in blue blinked his eyes and put on an innocent look, “Is it strange? I only heard that Princess Consort Zhan was incomparably beautiful so I came here to watch the fun. Why don’t you tell me the identity of Princess Consort Zhan?”
“I’m afraid that you will be freaked out to hear the identity of Princess Consort Zhan.” The man in green deliberately put on airs.
“Oh, yeah? She must be the princess of an empire, right?” Seeing the countless dowries, the man in green guessed that Princess Consort Zhan’s identity must be extraordinary. Hence, she must be some princess.
Hearing the conjecture of the man in blue, the man in green puckered his lips dismissively, “Listen. Princess Consort Zhan is the crown princess of the Zhuque Empire.”
Hearing that, the man in blue widened his eyes in shock, “The crown princess of the Zhuque Empire?”
The man in green glimpsed the man in blue’s astonished look and said proudly with his chest out, “Don’t be so surprised. It is only one of Princess Consort Zhan’s titles.”
“She has other titles?” The man in blue arched his brows. Was there another identity more exalted than the crown princess of the Zhuque Empire?
“Of course. Princess Consort Zhan is not only the crown princess of the Zhuque Empire but also the crown princess of the Qinglong Empire,” the man in green said proudly.
The man in blue was shocked again. He replied in a daze, “How come? How can the crown princess of the Zhuque Empire be the crown princess of the Qinglong Empire? Isn’t the Qinglong Empire patriarchal?”
“You know what, the old emperor of the Qinglong Empire is the grandpa of Crown Princess of Zhuque. And Crown Princess of Zhuque’s father used to be the crown prince of the Qinglong Empire. The old emperor loves his son so he also loves his granddaughter. One thing led to another. He made Crown Princess of Zhuque his heiress.” He learned the information from his grandpa who was the prime minister.
The man in blue took a tumble, “So that explains it. I didn’t expect that Princess Consort Zhan was the crown princess of two empires.”
Seeing that the man in blue took a tumble, the man in green approached him and whispered, “Apart from that, it’s said that Princess Consort Zhan is also an earthly-grade refining pharmacist.” His grandpa learned the news from the eunuch who served the emperor. This was a secret.
“An earthly-grade refining pharmacist? How is it possible?” Hearing that, the man in blue was shocked. He could believe that she was the crown princess of two empires. However, he couldn’t believe that she was an earthly-grade refining pharmacist. How old was she? Judging from her appearance, she was 17 years old at most. A 17-year-old earthly-grade refining pharmacist? How was it possible?
As the man in blue disbelieved him, the man in green said, “Why is it impossible? Do you know who Princess Consort Zhan’s master is?”
Hearing that, the man in blue shook his head. How could he know who her master was?
The man in green whispered to him again, “Her master is the chief elder of the Refining Pharmacists’ Guild. It is said that Princess Consort Zhan is the only personal succeeding disciple of the chief elder of the Refining Pharmacists’ Guild. Besides, this time, her master also came to attend the wedding.”
The man in blue was slack-jawed now. Any one of Princess Consort Zhan’s titles could scare the hell out of him. He just couldn’t understand why such an exalted woman would marry down into the Baihu Empire.
“Why does Princess Consort Zhan marry Prince Zhan?”
The man in green heard that and then said with a frown, “I don’t understand it either. According to my grandpa, originally, Princess Consort Zhan came here to propose marriage with countless treasures as the betrothal gifts. Afterward, something happened. She didn’t succeed in proposing but married into Baihu.” By now, he still remembered his grandpa’s enchanted face when his grandpa mentioned the wealthy betrothal gifts brought by Princess Consort Zhan.
Duanmu Xi gently leaned against Xuanyuan Mo’s arms. As the sun beat down on them, they seemed to be coated with the golden light. A breeze blew by, stirring up the long hemline of Duanmu Xi’s dress. The red phoenix pattern made by the golden silk threads on the hemline glistened goldenly, causing a lot of women to cry in amazement!
“What a beautiful wedding dress! I really want it!”
“I can’t agree more! I want to wear a dress like this when I get married.”
A woman from the Zhuque Empire heard the women’s exclaiming and then said disdainfully, “Don’t kid yourself! This is the highest-ranking phoenix dress in the Zhuque Empire. Only the empress and the crown princess are qualified to wear it. You’d better stop dreaming.”
“A phoenix dress?” The women asked in one voice.
The disdainful words of the woman from the Zhuque Empire didn’t give those women a blow. Instead, they were deeply intrigued.
“What is the phoenix dress? Tell us about it.”
Upon hearing that, the woman from the Zhuque Empire raised her chin and said proudly, “The phoenix dress is what the women of the Zhuque Empire wear when getting married. The wedding dress our crown princess is wearing is called the phoenix dress. And the wedding clothes that men wear are called phoenix suits. The one Prince Zhan is wearing and our crown princess’s phoenix dress are a matching pair.”
Hearing that, the women all cast their eyes at Xuanyuan Mo and Duanmu Xi.
“I don’t find any difference. Only one is for men and the other is for women.”
“Of course they are different. The phoenix suit is embroidered with a male phoenix which has a crown and three tails while the phoenix dress is embroidered with a female phoenix which has no crown and two tails,” the woman from the Zhuque Empire explained patiently.
The women heard that and observed the clothes. They found that the woman was right and all marveled at the exquisiteness of the wedding clothes of the Zhuque Empire.
“Snow.” Duanmu Xi suddenly lifted her head and looked at Xuanyuan Mo with a smile.
“Yeah?” Xuanyuan Mo subconsciously replied and then felt shocked. A glint of confusion flashed across his eyes. She called Snow but why did he reply naturally as if having heard it thousands of times?
“Did you hear that? They are all saying that our wedding clothes are pretty!” Duanmu Xi didn’t find Xuanyuan Mo’s abnormality and still said proudly.
With his amber eyes becoming dark again, Xuanyuan Mo said in a low voice, “You look very beautiful in this wedding dress!”
Duanmu Xi slightly blushed and looked at Xuanyuan Mo, saying seriously, “I think you look beautiful in this wedding suit too.”
Beautiful? How could she use this word on him?
Xuanyuan Mo frowned and insisted, “Not beautiful but handsome.”
Duanmu Xi pouted, “No, you are beautiful.” He was so beautiful to the point where he was like a spirit.
“Gee. What is that?” Suddenly, someone among the crowd shouted.
The onlookers all looked back in confusion and instantly got freaked out.
Heavens! Why were there so many spiritual beasts? In the face of thousands of spiritual beasts coming to them, all the people’s legs were so weak that they couldn’t move at all.
Xuanyuan Mo glimpsed the herds of beasts and tightened his arms around Duanmu Xi. With a flick of his sleeve, a wide path appeared among the crowd.
The people only felt that they were pushed away by a rush of gentle force.
Hearing the noise, Duanmu Xi immediately got up from Xuanyuan Mo’s arms with a nervous look and stared at the spiritual beasts running to them in front.
“Don’t be afraid.” Feeling that Duanmu Xi was nervous, Xuanyuan Mo immediately comforted her.
“Snow.” When she looked back and saw Xuanyuan Mo’s transparent amber eyes, Duanmu Xi was reassured instantly. With Snow by her side, she didn’t need to be afraid no matter what happened.
Xuanyuan Mo held Duanmu Xi into his arms again and looked sharply at the herds of spiritual beasts approaching them.
The spiritual beasts acted very quickly. Within several breaths, they arrived in front of Xuanyuan Mo.
While the people were trembling in fear and thought that the spiritual beasts were about to attack them, a miracle happened.
The spiritual beasts all knelt on forelegs towards the direction where Prince Zhan and Princess Consort Zhan stayed.
What was going on? These spiritual beasts all knelt in front of Prince Zhan and Princess Consort Zhan. Did they all come here to extend their congratulations as they knew it was the wedding of Prince Zhan and Princess Consort Zhan today?
Duanmu Xi slightly frowned and didn’t understand what these spiritual beasts were doing. Xuanyuan Mo still looked aloof and poker-faced.
While everyone was perplexed, several spiritual beasts walked out of the herd. They all transformed into humans.
The onlookers were amazed again. These were all mythical creatures. It was well-known that on the Hantian Continent, the beasts that could transform into humans must be mythical creatures.
The mythical creatures in human form were all extraordinarily good-looking.
A mythical creature in the form of a handsome man in white walked forward to the black horse of Xuanyuan Mo, kneeling on one knee and saying, “I, hereby, wish Lord Beast God and Princess Consort Beast a happy wedding on behalf of the snow wolf clan.”
After saying that, the handsome man in white got a black wooden box from nowhere and passed it to Xuanyuan Mo, “This is the wedding present we prepare for you and your wife. Please accept it.”
Duanmu Xi slightly knitted her brows. Beast god? Princess Consort Beast? So weird.
Xuanyuan Mo looked at the handsome man in white in front and his eyes slightly flickered. His grandpa still didn’t come to attend his wedding. As he waved his sleeve, the black wooden box appeared on Xuanyuan Mo’s palm instantly. When he opened it gently, a rush of cold air blew on his face.
This was Eternal Ice. Xuanyuan Mo felt touched.
The Eternal Ice was the extreme treasure of Wannian Snow Mountain. It was the most precious thing apart from the ice spiritual fruit. He curled his lips. What a generous gift from his grandpa!
Duanmu Xi looked at the white crystal in the black wooden box, her dark purple eyes glinting with excitement.
It was Eternal Ice, a material for refining Origin Restoring Pill.
“I haven’t seen such a beautiful woman before. She is as pretty as a fairy maiden!”
“The rumor is true. Princess Consort Zhan is really more beautiful than the fairy maiden!”
