Chapter 282

Upon hearing about the functions of the Dragon and Phoenix Ring, the players were once again consumed by jealousy.

Look at it, whether it's the Luoshen set, special skills, or the current couple rings.

The rewards that Lin Cang and Xue Rongrong received were unique in the entire game.

It's practical, good-looking, and a status symbol—it's practically every gamer's dream.

Besides these, players also felt like they were being bombarded with displays of affection.

They didn't come to complete a mission or accept a challenge; they came to witness the love between Lin Cang and Xue Rongrong.

That's too cruel! That's outrageous! That's disgusting!

They were like monkeys being played, a half-day trip to a special instance, getting a few potions as a thank you for participating, and even getting a feast of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

This is blatant harm to them!

The players either had blank expressions, gloomy faces, embarrassed expressions, or angry expressions.

However, they soon learned that there were even crueler things to come.

The leader is going to hold a grand wedding for He Canglin and Rong Rong.

The leader has now realized that Luo Shen is not some witch who wreaks havoc on the court, but a cultivator like Lin Cang.

For him, currying favor with Lin Cang and Luo Shen would only bring benefits and no harm.

He enthusiastically offered his suggestions and immediately instructed his subordinates to make the arrangements.

He Canglin did not respond, but looked at Rong Rong seriously.

"May I?"

Shedding his murderous aura and cold, hard presence, He Canglin's resolute eyes almost melted with tears.

He carefully concealed the hope in his eyes, and seeing that Rong Rong did not speak, he calmly said, "It's okay if you don't want to, the dragon ring is yours."

As he spoke, He Canglin stretched out his large hand, which was holding the dragon ring, in front of Rong Rong.

"My job really doesn't allow me to spend much time with you. I was just being delusional. You deserve a better and more considerate partner."

He Canglin lowered his eyes, concealing his expression.

His hand remained raised, waiting for Rong Rong to take the ring from his hand.

Finally, a delicate, fair hand took the ring from his palm.

In an instant, He Canglin's eyes dimmed.

But he said nothing, his expression only grew colder and harder.

Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, the little hand suddenly grabbed his hand again, turning his hand over so that the back of his hand was facing up.

Then, her delicate hands held the ring and slowly slipped it onto his ring finger.

The whole process seemed to be very slow. He Canglin unconsciously held his breath. His slender, white, jade-like hands contrasted sharply with his bronze, well-defined knuckles.

For the first time, he clearly realized the difference between men and women.

The saying "a hundred times tempered steel can be softened by a finger" perfectly describes his current state of mind.

The ring fits my hand perfectly.

"I think it's alright," a delicate voice said playfully.

He Canglin unconsciously revealed a warm and faint smile.

He looked up and met Rong Rong's bright eyes, then pulled her into a tight embrace, almost as if he wanted to meld her into his own body.

The wedding took place amidst great anticipation.

Since the instance time had not yet ended and the exit passage was not yet open, the players were forced to attend He Canglin and Rong Rong's wedding again.

Damn it, the leader of the Nine Netherworlds guild caught up with his own guild's pet and even got married to her in the game. They witnessed it, haha.

The players maintained a cool and smiling demeanor throughout.

The leader and his men were the happiest and most delighted.

The wedding was conducted according to the rituals of the king and queen of ancient dynasties.

The dress is black and red, exuding a mysterious and solemn feel.

He Canglin and the leader stood on the Temple of Heaven, surrounded by heavy guards.

The players, positioned below the Temple of Heaven, watched the wedding unfold like mannequins.

At one point, gasps suddenly rose from the distance, growing louder as they approached, followed by silence.

The players turned to look, puzzled.

A stunningly beautiful woman, dressed in a black and red gown, slowly walked towards them, surrounded by a group of maids.

The players' bodies stiffened, and their thoughts froze.

The boredom was gone, and the resentment and anger disappeared.

Their hearts and eyes were filled with nothing but that beautiful figure.

They didn't know how to describe the woman's breathtaking beauty.

The poem "Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River" kept echoing in my mind.

Its form is graceful as a startled swan, and elegant as a swimming dragon.

The autumn chrysanthemum shines brightly, and the spring pine flourishes.

...

Her smile was enchanting, her eyes sparkling.

This is the Goddess of the Luo River, what a beautiful Goddess of the Luo River.

Players thought that even the real Goddess of the Luo River in history might not be as good as the person in front of them.

While the players were lost in thought, Rong Rong had already passed them and walked up the steps of the Temple of Heaven.

All eyes were fixed on Rong Rong's retreating figure.

"Damn! No wonder Lin Cang insisted on protecting Xue Rongrong even if it meant disregarding the main plot!"

One player suddenly realized what was happening and slapped himself hard in the face.

"It's ridiculous that I still insist on killing her; she must hate me to death!"

"It's unlikely to be hatred. She doesn't know us. At most, she dislikes us and doesn't want to have anything to do with us again."

"Damn! This feels even worse!"

......

The players below were filled with deep regret. If they had known that Xue Rongrong was such a great beauty, they would never have done this damn quest or accepted that worthless reward. They would never have killed Xue Rongrong!

Imagine how wonderful it would have been if they had chosen to abandon their mission and stand in front of Xue Rongrong when everyone else wanted to kill her.

Will Xue Rongrong develop feelings for them because of this? Will she be willing to be friends with them? Or even, will they have the opportunity to pursue Xue Rongrong and marry her?

......

Isn't this just the script for Lin Cang?

Lin Cang is currently marrying Xue Rongrong! Although it's just in the game!!

The players are upset, but on the Temple of Heaven, someone is even more upset than they are.

That is the leader, the future new king.

He stared intently at Rong Rong, his eyes filled with intense possessiveness and deep regret.

He should have expected that he would gain the exclusive favor, affection, and tenderness of a ruthless and heartless tyrant who kills without hesitation.

How could the Goddess of the Luo River be an ordinary beauty?

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he embodies all the fortune of the world.

How many years does it take for such a beauty to appear in the world?

The leader thought that perhaps there would only be one like this for billions of years.

One of a kind, never to be repeated!

At one point, the leader impulsively wanted to snatch the beauty away.

But the sudden drop in temperature and the terrifying murderous aura stopped him.

He can't, he can't beat them.

It's ridiculous that in every dynasty, every new king could easily take over the women of the previous king; beauties were like spoils of war for the victors.

But it didn't work out with him; the beauty there was unlike anything I'd ever seen before.

The leader gave a wry smile.

Now, his only consolation is that he agreed not to kill Luo Shen; he was just a hair's breadth away from making a terrible mistake.

Rong Rong and He Canglin completed their wedding.

Perhaps because of the dragon and phoenix rings, the game gave them a lot of prestige.

Three system announcements followed in quick succession, and simultaneously, a dragon and a phoenix appeared before the eyes of all online players, their necks intertwined.

Dragons leaped and phoenixes cried, fireworks exploded, and the dazzling light effects almost blinded everyone!
