Volume 1 Chapter 269 Want to Get Married

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fei immediately said, "I obey your order!"

After thinking for a while, Jiang Fei asked again: "But Your Majesty, to conquer these sects, we must pass through the territories of the major dynasties. In this case, don't we have to knock on the border cities of each dynasty first?"

Xiang Yun narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he said, "We can attack the White Mist Country and the Red Sky Dynasty directly, and during the time I am away, transfer all the Fire Cloud Army in the empire to the borders of these two countries to garrison, to prevent them from invading our borders first!

As for other dynasties, we will send envoys to negotiate first. After all, we are helping them solve a major hidden danger within their dynasty. I believe their emperors should be very happy to see this. If the negotiations go badly, then we will put it aside and discuss it again after I return to Beijing."

"I understand!" Jiang Fei bowed again in response.

Xiang Yun nodded in satisfaction, then personally collected the drawn map, tied it up and handed it to Jiang Fei, and said, "Be cautious in everything, be more diligent, and leave."

Jiang Fei took the map with a complicated expression, hesitated for a moment, sighed in his heart and retreated. However, Xiang Yun, who was completely focused on practicing and becoming stronger, did not notice Jiang Fei's abnormality at all.

After Jiang Fei left, Xiang Yun rode the dragon north without any hesitation and headed straight for Qili Mountain.

In the palace, Jiang Fei, who was walking out holding a map, looked increasingly pale, as if he were paper. The next moment, he stopped, raised his hand and gently wiped the corner of his mouth, then looked down and saw that his fingers were stained with scarlet blood.

Jiang Fei smiled bitterly in his heart, took out a white silk handkerchief that had been stained with blood like plum blossoms from his arms, gently wiped the corners of his mouth, wiped his fingers clean, circulated his internal energy to slowly adjust his body, and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

How could it be so easy to destroy a sect of cultivation that has been passed down for hundreds of years? Which force would not have some foundation?

He led the Fire Cloud Army to attack the Rakshasa Sect. Everything went smoothly at first. They directly massacred the Rakshasa Sect. All the disciples of the Rakshasa Sect were defeated and had no power to resist at all.

But if you walk by the river often, you will inevitably get your feet wet. The soldiers of the Huoyun Army discovered a secret room in the back mountain of Luosha Gate. They opened it rashly, but who knew that there was a supreme elder who was lingering on inside.

It was his single attack that caused so many casualties among the Fire Cloud Army, and his cultivation was so high that even the Big Sun Cannon could do nothing to him. At that time, Jiang Fei had no choice but to step forward and fight with the Supreme Elder.

Since Jiang Fei was in the process of rebuilding his skills, his current cultivation level was not very high, and he was only at the Qinxin realm. He was severely injured after fighting with the Grand Elder for less than ten moves, and it was difficult for him to fight again.

But I don't know if it was because of good luck, the supreme elder of Luosha Sect was only half alive. After Jiang Fei was seriously injured, he himself was weak and could hardly move. The surrounding Huoyun Army seized the opportunity and immediately fired dozens of artillery shells, which blew him to pieces.

However, Jiang Fei had not expected that the supreme elder of the Rakshasa Sect actually had a backup plan. Before he died, he cast a secret curse called the Heart-killing Curse.

Moreover, this spell was cast with Jiang Fei's blood. As soon as the spell was cast, it went straight to Jiang Fei. No matter how he tried to dodge, he could not avoid it. Finally, it was imprinted in his body.

As soon as the Heart-Killing Curse entered his body, Jiang Fei felt a sinister and evil force constantly devouring and destroying his body, absorbing his life bit by bit. At this rate, he would be tortured to death within a year, and even the gods would not be able to save him.

He immediately used his inner strength to try to dispel the Heart-killing Curse, but in the end he found that the vicious curse was actually connected to his heart. If he wanted to get rid of the curse, he would have to get a new heart!

How can a person survive without a heart?

As a result, Jiang Fei couldn't help but feel hopeless, as if he had let go of everything.

He planned not to tell anyone about this matter, and he also concealed the fact that he was severely injured by the Grand Elder. He did not want to worry anyone.

When the day of death really comes, just let yourself leave quietly. After all, there is nothing in this world that you need to worry about.

"It's just..." Jiang Fei returned home in a distracted mood. At night, after practicing his internal skills, he went to his eldest brother's study alone and knocked on the door gently.

"Come in!" Jiang Yue was still dealing with the military affairs that needed to be arranged in the past few days, so he did not sleep very late. It has been like this for the past few days. He is busy in the military camp during the day, and when he returns home, he has to be busy in his study.

Due to long-term hard work, Jiang Yue's eyes are bloodshot, his eye bags are dark, and he looks tired. Two or three strands of hair fall on his face, and with the stubble at the corners of his mouth, he looks extremely haggard.

He doesn't look like a young man in his twenties at all. Instead, he looks like a middle-aged man in his thirties. He looks too mature.

Seeing that the person coming was Jiang Fei, Jiang Yue put down the brush in his hand, smiled and asked: "Xiao Fei, what do you want to see me so late at night?"

Jiang Fei opened his mouth slightly, hesitated for a moment, scratched his head, and then said directly: "It's like this, big brother, you see, I'm not young anymore, I want to marry a wife and have a big fat boy."

Jiang Yue's jaw almost dropped when he heard this. When did his battle-mad brother start to like women?

But looking at Jiang Fei's appearance, he looked like a man in his fifties. Although he was in good health, he was still too old. Although he was less than 20 years old, no rich lady would be willing to marry him with such an appearance.

If she were a girl from an ordinary family, she would be happy to marry Jiang Fei in order to make a living given his status as Marquis Shenwu.

But this is too unfair to my brother.

Jiang Yue thought about it, then stood up and walked to Jiang Fei, touched his forehead, and said strangely: "You don't have a fever, why do you say such stupid things today?"

Jiang Fei couldn't help but yelled angrily when he heard this: "What nonsense do you mean? Big brother, you have been married for such a long time, so naturally I can get married as your younger brother too!"

Jiang Yue frowned and asked, "Are you sincere about this?"

"Of course!" Jiang Fei said with certainty.

Jiang Yue fell into deep thought, then asked, "Have you chosen a girl? Tell big brother, and he and his wife will personally propose marriage to you!"

Jiang Fei spread his hands and said shamelessly, "No, I don't have any, but I'm not picky. As long as it's a girl, it's fine. So please worry about it, brother. It would be best if we can get married in the next few days. I'm in a hurry."

Jiang Yue was stunned, and suddenly he became angry and yelled, "Nonsense! How can marriage be a joke? How can you put the other girl and your own life in such a position?

You're in a hurry, do you think you're doing business?

Get lost, stop bothering me here!"

Jiang Fei was directly kicked out of the study by Jiang Yue. He had no choice but to shake his head and return to his own house. In the imperial study, Jiang Yue sat down again angrily, picked up the pen and was about to work again, but when he thought of Jiang Fei's words and attitude just now, he became furious.

"This kid has totally distorted values!" Jiang Yue threw the brush down angrily, then stood up again with a flick of his hand and went back to his room angrily.

As soon as she entered the bedroom, Zhen Yueling was stunned. Seeing Jiang Yue coming in angrily, she couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Husband, what happened today? It's rare to see you lose your temper like this."

Seeing Zhen Yueling, Jiang Yue's expression eased a lot, but he was still angry, so he complained: "Don't say anything, it's all because of Xiaofei!"

Zhen Yueling was afraid that it was official business, so she stopped asking and just stepped forward to soothe Jiang Yue's back with her hands, and said softly: "Okay, you have been tired these days. If you get angry again, you will get sick. Don't you two brothers have a good relationship on weekdays? Why are you so angry today? I know my uncle's character. What can you do to make trouble with him?"

Jiang Yue waved his hands and said unhappily: "It's not because of this at all!"

Zhen Yueling didn't ask any more questions. Soon a maid brought some hot water for washing feet. Zhen Yueling brought it in front of Jiang Yue and took off his shoes and washed his feet herself.

Feeling the warmth on his feet, Jiang Yue relaxed a lot, and he let out a long sigh, sighing: "Xiao Fei is a good kid in every way, but he doesn't seem to be very kind to women~!"

"Ah?" Zhen Yueling was obviously stunned, and even stopped what she was doing, as if she thought she had heard it wrong.

Then Jiang Yue told Zhen Yueling what Jiang Fei had said in the study room. This made Zhen Yueling laugh. She laughed and said, "She is so ignorant. How can a girl get married so casually? Why does she have a childlike personality?"

Jiang Yue sighed and said, "But since Xiao Fei has asked me, his eldest brother, how can I not take it to heart? And even if I want to find a wife, I have to find a daughter from a wealthy family, a well-educated and well-mannered family, so that she can be worthy of his status as the Marquis of Shenwu."

Zhen Yueling nodded when she heard that. Jiang Yue looked at her, then laughed, leaned over and held Zhen Yueling's hands, and asked in a deep voice: "Madam, do you know any unmarried women of the same age as Xiaofei? I can go and talk to them."

Zhen Yueling frowned slightly and said, "In such a large Yun Empire, there are not many girls from famous and wealthy families. I'm just afraid that they will dislike my uncle's appearance because he is too old and will not want to marry him. But my uncle is the Marquis of Shenwu after all, and his status is noble. So, you don't have to worry about it. Leave this matter to me. I will go to propose marriage to my uncle tomorrow."

Jiang Yue nodded and smiled: "That's great, that's great!"

The next day, Zhen Yueling really went out early and called all her old close friends, even the wealthy ladies, to come over. When she told them about this matter, it was like a boiling pot of boiling water, and many women screamed in surprise.

Wei Shuxian, the daughter of the imperial physician Wei Jiyuan, said unhappily: "He is a good man, first-class in both ability and status, but his appearance is a little..."

The others also agreed, bringing up the topic. Zhen Yueling couldn't help but frowned, then smiled and said, "If my uncle was handsome when he was young, he would be a well-known handsome man in the area, and he was named Marquis of Shenwu at the age of 18. How could you have such good conditions? If you wanted to marry him at that time, my uncle would not have looked down on you!"
