1174 Epilogue, Proposal (2)
Is Zhou Shu already so powerful? Emperor Yuan Feng felt very complicated.
At this moment, Zhou Shu descended from the sky and landed in front of Emperor Yuan Feng. “Your Majesty, long time no see.”
Emperor Yuan Feng coughed lightly and tried his best to show his dignified side. “Long time no see.”
Hmph, so what if you’re strong?
When you see me, you still have to obediently call me father-in-law.
This damn brat took advantage of my precious daughter back then. He still hasn’t given me an explanation!
Emperor Yuan Feng had originally thought that when he saw Zhou Shu, he would deal Zhou Shu a head-on blow at the first encounter.
After all, Zhou Shu had taken advantage of his precious daughter.
But when he really saw him, he realized that he couldn’t really show his might.
What Zhou Shu had done simply exceeded Emperor Yuan Feng’s imagination.
Those people were high and mighty Grotto-Heaven Masters. But under Zhou Shu, they were like little chicks at his mercy.
Emperor Yuan Feng was nothing compared to Grotto-Heaven Masters.
He felt a little lost. Zhou Shu was no longer the insignificant Forging Apprentice from back then.
I can rest assured if my daughter marries him. Even so, Emperor Yuan Feng still felt a little sad when he thought about it.
“Father-in-Law, I’m here to propose.” Zhou Shu smiled and looked at Yin Wuyou behind Emperor Yuan Feng.
He cupped his hands and said seriously, “Father-in-Law, Wuyou and I love each other. I want to marry her. Please allow it.”
The ten Grotto-Heaven Masters stood in a line behind Zhou Shu with their hands behind their backs.
Emperor Yuan Feng felt immense pressure. Under such circumstances, if I say no, will these ten Grotto-Heaven Masters tear me into pieces?
But he was secretly proud. Unfortunately, the people from the other nations can’t see this scene. Do you see this? Ten Grotto-Heaven masters are standing obediently in front of me. They have to listen to whatever I say!
No, not ten, but eleven!
So what if Zhou Shu is strong? In front of me, he still has to obediently lower his head.
It had to be said that Emperor Yuan Feng’s vanity was greatly satisfied.
He nodded slightly and pondered for a moment before saying, “Wuyou is the apple of my eye. I have always doted on her. It won’t be so easy for you to marry her.”
“Father!” Yin Wuyou tugged at the corner of Emperor Yuan Feng’s clothes anxiously.
Emperor Yuan Feng didn’t seem to notice and looked at Zhou Shu.
Not far away, the officials of Great Xia were even more anxious than Emperor Yuan Feng.
Your Majesty, why are you still pretending to be reserved at this time?
You can’t find such a good son-in-law anywhere else. If you don’t want him, we’ll take him.
We have daughters at home…
The smile on Zhou Shu’s face didn’t change. “Father-in-Law, I’m sincere about Wuyou. If you’re dissatisfied with me, I can change myself.”
Back then, when he was only an ordinary forger, Yin Wuyou had given herself to him and even helped him look after the Huaxia Pavilion for a hundred years.
How could he let her down?
Emperor Yuan Feng shook his head. “I’m not dissatisfied with you.”
Even if he wanted to deliberately find fault with Zhou Shu, he couldn’t find any flaws in him.
He didn’t know that the officials of Great Xia had already begun to curse.
Your Majesty, why are you pretending?
He’s such a good son-in-law. If he runs away, you won’t have anywhere to cry!
Emperor Yuan Feng slowly said, “Wuyou waited for you for a hundred years. In the past hundred years, I’ve seen her cry more than once. She has never liked to take care of mundane matters, but for the sake of the Huaxia Pavilion, she forced herself to do many things she didn’t like…”
“Father…” Yin Wuyou pulled Emperor Yuan Feng’s arm and stopped him from continuing.
Emperor Yuan Feng looked at Yin Wuyou gently. “Wuyou, I don’t want you to marry a peerless hero.”
He touched her head and said gently, “Being the wife of a hero is too bitter. My heart ached over the past hundred years.
“Zhou Shu, if you want me to marry Wuyou to you, sure. I need a promise from you.”
He said seriously, “I want you to promise me that you will never let Wuyou down in this life! If you dare to make Wuyou sad, I, Yuan Feng, will definitely not let you off even if I have to risk my life!”
“Don’t worry, Father-in-Law,” Zhou Shu said solemnly. “Wuyou is the apple of your eye, and she is also the apple of my eye. I won’t let her suffer at all!”
“You got lucky with my daughter.” Emperor Yuan Feng’s expression was cold as he handed Yin Wuyou’s hand to Zhou Shu.
Yin Wuyou’s pretty face flushed red while Zhou Shu smiled.
At this moment, Yang Hong leaned over to Zhou Shu and whispered, “Your Highness, everything is ready.”
Zhou Shu nodded and said to Emperor Yuan Feng, “Father-in-Law, since you have no objections, I’ll give you the betrothal gifts today.”
Yang Hong started shouting, “A hundred connate divine weapons…”
The King of Men, Yang Hong, personally reported the betrothal gift list. Behind him were ten Grotto-Heaven Masters.
This scene made the Great Xia officials excited.
After hearing Yang Hong’s gift list, they were no longer just excited.
Great Xia was about to rise.
There were a hundred connate divine weapons!
Not to mention, there were countless heavenly treasures.
Emperor Yuan Feng’s face fell.
The more betrothal gifts there were, the more face he would have.
But at the same time, he was in a difficult position.
What about Wuyou’s dowry?
If Wuyou’s dowry is inferior to Zhou Shu’s betrothal gift, won’t Wuyou appear inferior in the future?
This won’t do!
As Wuyou’s father, I have to give Wuyou face!
Damn you, kid. I know you’re powerful. Why are you showing off with so many betrothal gifts?
I’m the ruler of a country. Do I need your betrothal gift?
Emperor Yuan Feng cursed in his heart, but he forced a pleasant expression on his face.
No matter what, he couldn’t lose face.
After giving the betrothal gift, Zhou Shu smiled at Yin Wuyou. “Wuyou, accompany Father-in-Law. I’ll accompany Little Lu home first, then come back and pick you up. We’ll return to the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven together.”
There were benefits and disadvantages to sitting back and enjoying the blessings of everyone.
He had to take care of everything that needed to be taken care of.
He had given out the betrothal gifts to Yin Wuyou’s family, so he naturally couldn’t favor one over the other.
Hearing Zhou Shu’s words, Lu Wenshuang blushed.
No matter how much a woman pretended not to care, at a time like this, she hoped that there would be a sense of ceremony.
Boom!
At this moment, smoke suddenly rose in the distance.
“Second Brother, the demonic beasts have breached the borders!” Mi Ziwen said with a solemn expression.
Zhou Shu looked up at the smoke signal and said indifferently, “The few of you, go to the border and take a look.”
The six Grotto-Heaven Masters who had just surrendered felt helpless, but they could only reply, “Yes!”
Mi Ziwen’s expression froze. In the past, when demonic beasts crossed the border, it had been a life-and-death battle for them.
But now, it didn’t seem like a big deal.
With six Grotto-Heaven Masters taking action, unless the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm left in full strength, they wouldn’t be able to do anything.
“Big Brother, you’re my only elder. You can’t be absent from the marriage proposal to the Lu family.” Zhou Shu smiled.
“After we’re done with our business, we’ll go meet the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm together.
“Previously, I was busy forging, so I didn’t take a close look at the strength of the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm.”
