However, neither of them spoke. In their family, it was a well-known fact that women held a higher status than men.
As the group was talking, the hall suddenly fell silent. The four of them stopped talking and looked at the center of the room.
Shui Jianglan stood on the stage and said in a gentle and refined manner, "To visit the Aolan Empire this time, our Shui tribe has brought our treasure for suppressing water, the Water-Locking Pearl."
As soon as he finished his introduction, the scene erupted in an uproar. Everyone was astonished, for this was a secret treasure of the aquatic tribe!
A servant stepped forward, respectfully carrying a box in his hand.
As soon as the Shuijianglan bottle was opened, a cool sensation filled the entire banquet hall.
Everyone was jolted awake, as if they had become more clear-headed.
Si Yuling whispered to Yan Jin, "The Water-Locking Pearl of the Water Tribe can only be conceived once every hundred years."
Each one has slightly different functions, but they all share the commonality of cooling the body and restoring mental energy, making them excellent treasures for mental well-being. As for whether this water-locking bead has any other functions, we'll have to wait and see.
Hearing Si Yuling's explanation, Yan Jin understood. Looking at the bead that Shui Jianglan had taken out, it was entirely water blue, with tiny specks of light inside.
The moment he held it in his hand, those star-like points burst forth from the bead, seemingly entering each person's body, and instantly, everyone gasped in surprise.
Even the four of them sitting far away in the corner were also penetrated by the starlight.
Yan Jin felt the elemental power in her body grow uncontrollably, and she also felt a jolt of energy, as if the elemental power was increasing slightly.
Yan Jin and Si Yuling exchanged a glance, and even Si's mother and father looked equally serious.
On the other side, His Majesty had already become polite with Shui Jianglan and accepted the bead.
At this moment, Shui Jianglan continued with a smile, "I have another mission in mind for coming to the Aolan Empire this time. This is my younger sister, Princess Shui Xinlan. My sister is twenty-five years old this year and has reached the age of marriage. We are going to form a marriage alliance with the brave orcs of the Aolan Empire and marry my sister to the Aolan Empire."
"..." At this moment, everyone fell silent, followed by murmurs.
Finally, it was the eldest prince, Yelcha, who spoke up, "I wonder if Prince Shuijianglan has already chosen a person he wishes to marry?"
"That depends on my sister's preference. We all respect her choice," Shui Jianglan said with a smile, while glancing at Shui Xinlan beside her.
Now, everyone's attention was focused on Shui Xinlan.
The water blue aquamarine is very beautiful, not in a stunning way at first glance, but in a subtle, water-like way, yet with an ethereal beauty.
It's not aggressive, yet it's equally captivating.
Despite everyone's gaze, she remained calm and showed no fear.
She smiled perfectly, her eyes seeming to see through everything, to have seen all the splendor, before finally settling on Si Yuling in the corner.
In that instant, the expressions of the four people in the corner all changed, especially Si Yuling, whose face and even his eyes were filled with coldness.
However, his terrifying gaze still failed to stop Shui Xinlan from speaking.
Shui Xinlan's eyes seemed to be filled with thousands of admiring glances, with only Si Yuling in her gaze. She smiled and said in a voice that everyone present could hear, "I want to marry Marshal Si Yuling."
