Chapter 1339: Beautiful like a painting

“You are finally here, how late!” Dong Chengfeng stood up and smiled at his daughter, “Yue Er, come to father, faster.”

Dong Cheng Yue definitely wanted to sit with me but he definitely has a reason for doing that.

Lin Tiannan smiled at me, “Xiao Yao you are here.”

I also nodded, “Uncle Lin.”

I looked at the old man seriously and then bowed, “Master.”

The old man was delighted, “Great!”

Seeing how a Blazing Sun Realm expert was so respectful to him, this fellow must feel good!

……

“I heard that you all have had huge advancement in game?” Lin Tiannan smiled and asked.

I didn’t say anything and Qin Wen was the one who spoke, “Uncle, Li Xiao Yao has fulfilled his promise to you. He took down all seven cities and this news will definitely spread across all game magazines.”

“I really didn’t expect that, haha…” Lin Tiannan looked at me happily.

Lin Tiannan looked a little troubled, “Actually, I invited all of you here because I have something to discuss.”

I had a bad feeling, “Er… What is it?”

Dong Chengfeng said, “Even your Master is here so you can guess.”

“This…” My heart was beating quickly.

“Both parents are here, this…” Tang Qi laughed, “Aiyo, I understand…”

Lin Tiannan stood up and held a glass of wine, “Actually it isn’t something huge, just that Wan Er and you decided to be together. Since I am free and your Master is free, let’s have an engagement ceremony? What do you two think? Don’t be embarrassed, just say.”

Lin Wan Er and I were both stunned.

Things came too suddenly. Although we loved one another but we didn’t really think about marriage, also… Engagement seemed a little far!

Dong Cheng Yue was stunned too. She looked at the table silently and didn’t say a word.

Tang Qi looked at Dong Cheng Yue and he felt bad for her, he clenched his fists.

……

Right, Dong Cheng Yue always liked me but what could I give her? I couldn’t waste her time right? Maybe the engagement was a solution.

I stood up and said, “I am willing, I don’t know if Wan Er…”

She bit her lips and said, “If I say that I am not willing, you are so violent and you will definitely hit me. Then I shall agree!”

Lin Tiannan couldn’t help but laugh, “Okay, let me as the hotel prepare something. In a week the invitations will be sent out. As for your friends, invite them yourself.”

“En.”

At that moment, Dong Cheng Yue said, “I don’t agree.”

“Little Yue!”

Dong Cheng Feng’s voice became fierce, “What do you have to not agree?”

Seemed like Dong Cheng Feng knew about the things between us. He understood that his daughter liked me which was why he reacted that way.

She raised her proud cheeks, “I just don’t agree!”

“Who are you to not agree?”

“I want to join the engagement ceremony with them…” Her voice was very soft, “Is a bridesmaid needed? I want…”

Lin Tiannan smiled, “So that is the case… Sure, you are Wan Er’s best friend, you are best to be the bridesmaid. Wan Er you have no objections right?”

Lin Wan Er looked at Dong Cheng Yue and her eyes were red, “Sorry Dong Cheng…”

Dong Cheng Yue lowered her head and tears nearly fell out, “Nothing to be sorry about, fate is like that…”

The situation was a little awkward and Qin Wen quickly said, “Don’t just sit there, eat something. Do you all want wine? Waiter, two bottles of red wine. Right, we want the most expensive one!”

The old man stared at me like he was scolding me for getting too many girls!

I kept silent. Although I didn’t know what I did wrong but it definitely had something to dow ith me. Looking at Dong Cheng Yue, I felt bad for her so I couldn’t help but glance over at her.

Lin Tiannan saw that and sighed. He shook his head, “Everyone is young, it is okay. Time can crush all faith. So called love, so-called stubbornness, they are all nothing in time. When you are our age you can see past everything!”

Tang Qi said, “Uncle Lin is right!”

Lin Tiannan smiled and started to discuss with Wan Er and me the details of the engagement. The hotel was the best one in Hangzhou around three days later. Actually, I could get engaged at my age but Wan Er was a little young, only 20. But it was just an engagement so it didn’t matter.

……

When I was eating, my phone rang and it was from Ouyang Nuoyan. After connecting, her clear voice spread out, “xiao Yao have you slept enough? I was worried that you were sleeping so I didn’t dare to disturb you.”

“Enough. What is it, Nuoyan? Are you going to weaken my gear? Let me tell you, I am going to fight back. No doing that, if not I will lodge a complaint!”

She laughed, “Nope, do you treat me like a bad woman that calls only when there is something bad? Don’t worry. I am not weakening your equipment but I just want you to develop some skills with our developers. We can arrange a time tomorrow to discuss?”

“Okay, can you tell me what exactly it is about?”

“Commercial secret, can’t be exposed!”

“Okay, lunch tomorrow?”

“Okay, my treat.”

“Okay!”

……

Continue discussing the engagement details. Lin Tiannan had many friends, around 100 tables. Wan Er and mine were just from games like Li Mu, Wang Jian, Dancing Forest, Q-Sword etc. That would be dozens of tables. But that was fine, the Tianjian Corporation princess was getting married so naturally, it had to be huge.

This meal lasted until 9pm and we were finally full.

It was 10 when we got back. I went online to see the new map after everything was united.

……

“Shua!”

I appeared in Tian Ling City with all my god gear but the city was much stronger. The walls were covered in a layer of white metal. Apart from that, there were many spikes that made it hard to climb. Many players made shops outside the gates and my shoulder had the MVP badge. I opened my bag and switched Gan Jiang for Chunjun Sword.

Majestic power surged into my body. Damn, two Supreme Country Weapons, it made me feel invincible like I could challenge everyone.

When I clicked on the map, it was red. The cities on it were marked by five star red flags. Only the dozens of secondary cities were in the hands of the small servers but it didn't matter. They weren’t much of a threat to China.

I returned my swords to my sheath and walked on the path. I was level 255 which was the max level so there was nothing I asked for. Apart from the next patch releasing the level cap to 275, if not I was the supreme presence.

“Di”, a message came from Prague’s Yan Zhao Warrior, “Li Xiao Yao, congratulations!”

“Uncle, what is there to congratulate?”

“You don’t know? After the country war, your CBN rankings passed Fang Ge Que to become top of china. This is internal news. I thought that contacted you. After the update at 12, you will see that you are first.”

“Damn, so quick. I thought that there was a huge gap.”

“Haha.” He laughed, ‘Stop joking, you are top of Destiny and conquered seven cities. Fang Ge Que is famous but he has never stood at such a height before so it is normal that you have overtaken him.”

“En, then I do have to congratulate myself.” I thought about it, ‘Uncle, I am having an engagement ceremony the day after, are you free to come to Hangzhou?”

“Damn, you are marrying? Who… Li Mu or Wang Jian?”

“Scram! Of course Wan Er…”

“Ahha, Goddess Cang Tong is engaging, who knows how many people would cry! Help me book a hotel, I will be there on time!”

“Okay.”

……

I ended the call and sent to the guild about the news. Everyone said that they wanted to come. Many said that even if they aren’t invited they will head over. Actually, Wan Er was too small, if not Lin Tiannan would have made us marry right away.

I walked to the palace and four Guards Army troops bowed, “The Executor!”

“Is his majesty in?” I asked.

“He is not.” One of them said, “He went to Iron Skull City to tour and isn’t back. Situ Xin and Lin Qiong are with him, don’t worry.”

“En, understood.”

I was free so I teleported over and then asked around. I learned that he led 2000 Royal Army troops out to the Seven World Mountain.

I flew around with God Form and from afar, Seven World Mountain was gigantic. I saw a dense army at the top and Lochlan was among them.

I flew across and descended nearby. I walked in from of him and bowed, “Your Majesty!”

“Master Li!”

He was excited and smiled, “Thank you for taking all this down for me, look this is so beautiful like a painting.”

I smiled, “Your Majesty’s world is as beautiful as a painting.”

Lochlan was stunned.

I cupped my fists, “Your Majesty, I would like to resign, my quest is done.”

“What?”

He was shocked.
