Chapter 24 - the birthday contest
The prosperity of the Ying Yue City was in no way inferior to that of the Zhao Kingdom's capital.
The Ouyang Family was one of the Five Great Families of the continent. Its power had already firmly controlled the Ying Yue City and had even infiltrated the entire continent. If the Ying Yue City was the private fortress of the Ouyang Family, then the City Lord stationed in the Ying Yue City would have to see the expression of the Ouyang Family. This was a privilege exclusive to the five noble clans. The positions of the heads of the five great clans were equal to that of the emperor.
The Ouyang Family Clan was a legendary family. The Ouyang Family was a small family with only one or two men in each generation. All the men in the Ouyang Family were martial arts geniuses; although there were very few girls in the Ouyang Family, every girl had an extremely high talent in magic.
In this generation, Ouyang Chenfeng had a son and a daughter. One of the sons, Ouyang Fengtian, was only twenty-two years old and had already broken through to the first stage of martial arts.
Li Yi and the others arrived at Ying Yue City and stayed at the Pleasant Inn.
"Brother Yi, are you sure you can win the wedding?"
Li Yi had long heard from Xue'er that during the birthday banquet, Ouyang Chenfeng would make an assessment on the person who proposed the marriage.
"Xue'er, don't worry. I won't let anyone take you away from me, even if it means becoming enemies with the entire continent!" Li Yi caressed Xue'er's soft hair and said while looking at Ouyang Xue with tender eyes.
At this moment, the world was silent.
Hand of Possession!
What need to be afraid of becoming enemies with the world!
To be accompanied by a Monarch!
Swear to old age!
As Li Yi reluctantly sent Ouyang Xue off, Li Yi's heart suddenly went empty, as though he was reluctant to even part even for a single moment with Xue'er.
The two of them agreed that Li Yi would propose marriage on his birthday and fight for it in his family.
Ouyang Chenfeng of the Ouyang Family sat in the seat of Patriarch, listening to a servant's report.
"Patriarch, when Miss went to the city to purchase items, she met Li Clan's Li Yi. The two of them seemed to be extremely familiar with each other and were extremely close. That night, Li Yi was attacked by two groups of people. Other than one who survived, the other two were all killed, including two Sword Saints. Those who survived said that Li Yi had at least the strength of a Sword Saint, but Li Yi was only eighteen years old. When Li Yi escorted the young miss back, she was ambushed in the wild boar forest. According to the scene of the battle, both sides had the strength of the Sword God, so Li Yi and the others were fine.
"18 years old, Sword Saint Middle Stage, Sword God, is it your strength or the protection of your family?" Ouyang Chenfeng muttered.
"Continue to monitor them secretly. No fighting is allowed in Ying Yue City!"
"Yes, Patriarch!"
The reason why Ouyang Chenfeng had publicly chosen his husband during the birthday banquet was because he had no other choice. His own country's prince had repeatedly come over to propose marriage, together with the fact that the Liu Family had always secretly expressed goodwill towards him, saying that they were going to be married off to his parents, and also the fact that some large families had come to him to propose marriage. They can also legitimately choose a son-in-law they love.
In front of the Ouyang manor during the birthday banquet, there were numerous figures moving about.
Before the door, guests were all reporting to their guests nonstop, "The Crown Prince of Zhao Kingdom is here, the reward is two hundred thousand gold!"
"The head of the Liu family, Liu Dingbang, has arrived. The reward is three hundred thousand gold coins!"
"The patriarch of Xiang Family, Xiang Feiyu, has arrived! The gift is worth one hundred and fifty thousand!"
"He Dongfang family's Fang Yu has arrived! A hundred thousand as gift money!"
"When the Nan Gong Family's Nangong Lin arrives, the reward is two hundred thousand gold!"
"The Crown Prince of Tang, Li Shiren, has arrived! A hundred thousand gold coins as a gift!"
"The Li family's Li Shuo has arrived. The reward is two hundred thousand!"
… … The rich and powerful of the country, the rich and powerful of a country, the four great clans of the continent, and even the royal families of the various countries had all sent people to congratulate them.
Some came to admire Ouyang Chenfeng, and some came to befriend the Ouyang family. On the other hand, it was for Ouyang Chenfeng's daughter, Ouyang Xue, who wanted to marry the Ouyang Family.
Ouyang Chenfeng was especially happy today, just like how people feel refreshed when they see a happy occasion.
In the Ouyang family's main hall, only people who were personally received by Ouyang Chenfeng were able to intimidate people in the continent. The rest of the guests had to go to the side hall.
"Uncle, I congratulate you on behalf of my royal father. I wish uncle a life longer than Nanshan, and a fortune as long as the waters of the East Sea flow!" The Crown Prince of Zhao Kingdom smiled and congratulated him.
Everyone came forward to congratulate him.
"Thank you, my friends, for your appreciation. I, Feng, thank you." I hope everyone can eat happily and drink to their heart's content. Before the birthday banquet starts, I have something to announce. My daughter, Ouyang Xue, is eighteen years old, and I wish to choose a good son-in-law for her three days later, taking advantage of her birthday. I have three questions, all unmarried men under the age of twenty-five are allowed to participate. The first one is entitled "Sincerity, taking the top six"; the second one is about martial arts, taking the top three; the third one is about me and my little girl mother jointly selecting the satisfied ones. "Alright, the birthday feast shall begin."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The firework exploded in the sky, and the group of mages brandished their magic staffs as they chanted incantations and continuously cast gorgeous magic.
The fiery red rose instantly bloomed!
It was beautiful in an instant!
The shooting stars that streaked across the sky brought a moment of shock!
Ice and fire danced together!
Snow swirling in the air!
A dancing fire spirit!
In the gentle whirlwind!
Kiss!
Bang!
Eternal!
An instant collision!
It was the fiery passion!
The scattered elements of space and time!
Do you still remember that moment of excitement!?
Drinking and drinking, toasting each other.
