Once everyone had returned to the city, they quickly began to count their numbers.
“Reporting, general! There were a total of 10,320 soldiers who participated in the battle!
“There are 10,200 remaining!
“120 dead! 200 injured!”
After receiving the report, Brad seemed delighted as he declared happily.
“Very good! It looks like our casualties this time only number 320 people!
“What a great victory!”
Fike, who was standing beside Brad, also smiled in relief after hearing this.
Brad turned to the youth beside him.
“Fike, little brother! Let’s go back to the palace and report this joyous news to His Majesty the King!”
Fike nodded before addressing the four professors at his side.
“Professors, let’s go to the palace together! We’re all heroes!”
Cisco smiled as he responded.
“It seems that our trip was not in vain! We’ve only just arrived, and we’ve already resolved such a huge crisis!”
Then, amidst the cheers and laughter of the crowd, the group slowly walked back toward the palace.
…
Although it was late in the night, Ross Collin III was still pacing around anxiously in the Imperial Court.
Suddenly, a guard walked in before kneeling down.
“Your Majesty, a report from the front line!”
“Speak quickly!”
Ross Collin III snapped with a slightly nervous expression.
“Prince Consort Fike and his four helpers have succeeded in eliminating the leader of the rebels, Zakaithus. General Brad has also pushed back the 100,000-strong army of the Heavenly King’s Palace.”
“How many casualties?”
The king asked.
“Only 320 casualties, Your Majesty!”
Hearing this, Ross Collin III felt his heart finally relieved.
He smiled as he said to himself.
“Great! That’s great!
“When Fike comes back, I’ll definitely reward him handsomely!”
Before he could even finish his words, as if right on cue, Fike and his men arrived at the palace gates.
Saunders entered the court at this moment.
“Your Majesty, Fike and the others are back!”
“Good! Let them in!”
Fike and the others entered the court, finding a delighted Ross Collin III.
“Fike! You’ve done me a great service. Tell me! What do you want as a reward?”
“Your Majesty, as a citizen of the Lieluo Empire, it was my duty to expel the rebels as well.”
Seeing Fike being so humble, the king made an offer.
“In that case, I will marry off the Ninth Princess tomorrow, and officially betroth her to you. How about it?”
Lan Xi, who was beside Fike, looked at him excitedly.
Fike replied cheerfully in turn.
“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help.”
Seeing that Fike had agreed, Ross Collin III continued.
“Now that the strength of the Lieluo Empire has been severely weakened, all sorts of arrangements will have to be done in time!
“I’ve decided to make use of this opportunity to hold a feast, inviting guests from all over the world. At the same time, it’ll give us a chance to recruit new talents from all over! What do you all think?”
Everyone agreed unquestioningly.
However, Fike objected with a troubled expression.
“Your Majesty, the purpose of our trip was initially to investigate the Exotic Beast Tower located in the east of the Imperial Capital of Rowei. I’m afraid we will be unable to stay here for too long.”
Ross Collin III laughed heartily at Fike’s reply.
“You brat!
“All I mean for you is for you and the Ninth Princess to be married tomorrow. Is that not enough?”
After Fike heard this, he repeatedly thanked the king.
The professors beside him expressed their blessings to Fike as well.
“I didn’t expect that you’d marry the Ninth Princess as soon as you came out from school! You really are lucky!”
“Yes, yes! The wedding tomorrow will not affect our progress anyway. Moreover, we can take it as a chance to relax for a day. That’ll be great!”
Fike seemed to be immersed in infinite joy as smiled blissfully in response to everyone.
At this moment, Ross Collin III addressed the room.
“It’s already late. Our bride and groom should go to bed early!”
Fike and Lan Xi blushed as they prepared to leave.
However, just as they had been about to return to their room, Saunders called out to them.
“Ninth Princess! How can newlyweds sleep together the night before their marriage?”
Lan Xi immediately understood, and respected the traditions, following Saunders to a new room.
Fike was left to be a mess in the wind.
…
The next day soon arrived, and the entire city of Rowei was in a jubilant mood.
After all, it was a royal wedding day.
The people in the city were more than excited to welcome this joyous celebration.
As for Fike, he was changing into a handsome suit, waiting for preparations to be over to meet his bride.
Today’s wedding would coincidentally be held in the auditorium on the North Mountain.
After everything was ready, Fike rode on a white horse prepared by Ross Collin III as he strolled through the streets of the Imperial Capital.
The pedestrians on the streets looked on at the dashing groom as he passed, the prince consort of the Lieluo Empire, and threw him congratulatory words.
Every building seemed to be covered with flower baskets as the streets wore lavish red carpets, extending all the way to the hall on the North Mountain.
Fike calmly rode his white stallion up the mountain.
By now, the terrifying scene from yesterday had been completely gone. The pale road that had been littered with corpses now only peeked a little from under the cover of the rich red carpet.
Finally, Fike arrived at the hall prepared for the occasion.
Lan Xi was dressed in a white wedding dress, and was waiting in the front of the auditorium with flowers in her hands.
Fike stepped into the venue.
The seats were filled with countless relatives from the royal family, as well as a number of wealthy businessmen from the capital.
Fike strode slowly and confidently toward Lan Xi.
“You’re so beautiful today!”
Fike blurted unconsciously.
“You’re quite handsome today as well!”
Lan Xi replied shyly.
The priest standing behind them started.
“Now that the couple has arrived, We may begin the formalities!”
The priest looked over at Fike before continuing.
“Mr. Fike! Do you promise to love Miss Lan Xi forever?”
“I do!”
Fike declared firmly.
“Miss Lan Xi! Do you promise to love Mr. Fike forever?”
“I do!”
Without even waiting for the priest to finish, Lan Xi looked lovingly into Fike’s eyes as she leaned forward, kissing his lips.
The two intertwined like butterflies in spring.
The priest only had the chance to continue after they separated.
“Now, please exchange rings!”
Fike procured a small black box from his pocket, containing the ring he had crafted overnight. It’s seven colors reflected brilliantly off the shining gem.
This was the Prismatic Crystal, the heart of the Auto Demon Repelling Formation.
Truthfully, according to his original plans, Fike had planned to prepare this ring for his own use. Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
However, he now felt that it was more meaningful to give this prismatic treasure to Lan Xi.
Fike half-knelt as looked up at Lan Xi with deep affection in his eyes.
“Lan Xi, will you marry me?”
“I will!”
