Chapter 299 Welcoming Passersby
The orcs and females of the royal court had known the news for a long time and were waiting on both sides of the street with flowers in their hands.
Some are happy, some are sad.
The unmarried beastmen were overjoyed. After the king's marriage contract, the females would no longer think about the king day and night, or compare them to him every day.
Married beastmen and females are worried.
The married beastmen are worried that since their mistresses don't have the chance to marry the king, they won't have the chance to benefit from their mistresses' influence and move into the royal court.
Although the females were distressed, they knew that they could still dream of marrying ordinary Holy Deer Clan beastmen, but only the favored females were qualified to marry such a noble being as the King.
As the float drove out of the royal court, orcs and females cheered and threw flowers at it.
Two butterfly-like boys, carrying flower baskets, scattered colorful petals in front of the float.
Sitting on the float, Jiang Xi looked at the flowers covering the ground and sky, and the cheering beastmen and females on both sides, and felt increasingly strange.
This...this looks like a wedding scene.
However, she wasn't the only one who was strange; the orcs and the females were too.
They all looked at Lu Liufeng on the lead float with strange and puzzled expressions.
It's understandable that the female beastmen would parade through the streets together.
But... how can I ride in the same carriage as the king and the female envoy?
Some people are worried.
"Would the female envoy favor this beastman exclusively? Could she have married the king simply because of his status?"
A female opened her eyes wide after she saw the orcs on the float.
“I know him! He’s an air force beastman from Eagle Strait. You all know how famous Eagle Strait is. How could he possibly throw a tantrum in front of the female envoy on a day like this?”
The orc scoffed, "Heh, who says the orcs of Eagle Strait don't know how to play tricks?"
The other orc also felt a pang of jealousy.
"If you ask me, the beastmen of Eagle Strait are the most cunning. Otherwise, how could they have such a high reputation throughout the continent? Whenever the topic of marrying a beastman comes up, the first thing you females say is, 'I must marry a beastman from Eagle Strait...'"
The orcs and the females disagreed, each believing that their own argument was correct.
On the float, Jiang Xi secretly reached under Lu Liufeng's robe and grabbed his hand.
Just as she was about to turn her head to speak to him, her other hand was suddenly grabbed, and Camus's voice came from the side.
"Look ahead, do not speak, this is a sacred moment."
Jiang Xi had no choice but to stiffen her neck back to its original position and smile as she looked ahead.
She tugged at Camus's hand, but couldn't pull it back. To avoid making too much noise on the float, she had no choice but to give up and remain still.
The float toured every street of the royal court. When it entered Huaying Street, Jiang Xi made a point of looking at the Giant Rabbit Clan's shop.
Hill, wearing an apron, stood outside the store.
Xiao Ai's eyes widened, her two rabbit ears stood up high, and she looked incredulous.
Jiang Xi smiled at them.
The floats passed quickly, and the little beastmen and females, along with their parents, chased after them along the street, hoping to share in the good fortune.
Xiao Ai grabbed Hill's arm and shook it rapidly.
"Hill!! Why is the female servant suddenly going to marry the king! Did you know about this?"
Hill pursed her lips and watched the float drive away.
Xiao Ai continued, "I've been going to the royal court every day for the past few days, but I haven't heard anything about this!"
Although Hill was also puzzled, the female master's beast husbands were all on the floats behind, and Mu Ling was even greeting the beastmen and females on both sides very warmly, which seemed to be voluntary rather than forced.
"Perhaps the female has changed her mind," he said uncertainly.
Xiao Ai's eyes lit up.
“Hill, so are you also…”
Hill shook his head.
"Let's go back, we still have things to do."
"The female beastmen are all so powerful. If I can't become one of the best among the beastmen, the female beastmen's attention will never stay on me."
Xiao Ai held his hand and comforted him.
"Hill, don't think like that. You're the most powerful unmarried orc in the tribe. You're just as good as anyone else!"
Hill patted Ai's head and smiled.
"Enough of that. The father beast and the elders have agreed with my suggestion to let the young beastmen travel to the Lion's Roar tribe."
Xiao Ai cheered.
"I want to go too!"
"Recently, the little beastmen of the royal court have been particularly eager to go to the Cursed Land to hunt cursed beasts. They've heard that as long as they hunt cursed beasts, they can become as powerful as Duan Si, Nafiel, and Lu Liufeng."
Hill glanced at him but didn't discourage him.
This depends mainly on talent.
Although he wasn't entirely clear about the specific bloodlines of some of the female's beast mates, they were all very strong; none of them were weak.
Amidst cheers from the crowds lining the streets, the floats arrived at the Qi Palace.
Camus got out of the car, bent down slightly, and extended a hand to Jiang Xi inside.
Jiang Xi remained seated on the float.
What kind of itinerary is this?!
Camus lowered his voice.
"It's just a formality."
The gazes from both sides were indeed burning hot, so Jiang Xi could only put on a fake smile, place her hand in Camus's palm, lift her robe, and walk down.
Lu Liufeng also came down from the other side.
Seeing this, Mu Ling jumped out of the car in confusion.
Where to?
Yang walked over.
"You can wait outside, we'll be out soon."
Yi Yuexi glanced at Lu Liufeng, whose expression was calm, then looked away and continued to prop her head up with one hand, pretending to sleep in a carefully designed posture.
But whether it was his imagination or not, he felt that the cheers from both sides seemed to be more focused on the floats behind him.
The float carrying Duns, Nafair, and Nakan.
Strange, aren't snake-type orcs always unpopular with females?
His presence as a noble nine-tailed white fox failed to elicit the same frenzy and screams as those in the holy city.
Duan Si sat on the float with his arms crossed, closing his eyes to regulate his supernatural abilities.
Nafiel did not close his eyes, but his misty, light blue eyes stared straight ahead, unmoved by the loud cheers from both sides.
This was the first time Nakan had experienced such a grand occasion, and his face turned completely red. Coupled with his naturally red hair, he was so red that it was impossible not to notice him.
When the float stopped, Duan Si's eyelids twitched, but after hearing Yang's words, he calmed down and did not move.
Nafiel looked at Lu Liufeng, while Nakan exclaimed in surprise the moment he saw Qidian.
"It's Qidian!"
Duan Si opened his eyes and frowned.
Nafi turned to look.
"Qi Dian?"
Duan Si got off the float and followed it.
Nafiel also got out of the car and followed.
Seeing this, Nakan naturally followed suit.
Seeing that they were going together, Mu Ling and Yi Yuexi decided to follow suit.
But as soon as the two got off, a series of loud female screams erupted from both sides.
"Aaaaaahh ...
"Aaaaaahh ...
"So handsome, so handsome, so handsome! Ahhhhhh!"
Yi Yuexi coughed to cover up her discomfort.
He was about to go and put on a show in front of the female master, so that she could see how popular he was.
But as soon as they took a step, the females on both sides shouted excitedly.
"I absolutely must marry a snake-beast from the cursed land!"
"Ahhh—I want to marry one too! Ahhh—"
"Ahhhh—"
