"Co back to , and I will let bygones be bygones."
This was the second major choice Li Peifeng faced in his dream.
The first ti was when he proposed to Wu Wenyue at the start of the dream, and Xu Manning appeared, making him choose between the two.
Fortunately, Huang Tianxuan jumped in, distracting Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning, and Li Peifeng cleverly announced that Aolai Kingdom abolished the marriage system, but kept the form of marriage, successfully dodging the predicant.
With the system abolished, polygamy or multiple concubinage wouldn't violate the law, so he naturally proposed to all three won.
All three girls thought it was an absurd dream. They didn't accept it on the spot, nor did they reject it imdiately. But in the days that followed, they all interacted with Li Peifeng as partners. Under Li's persistent pursuit, they gradually got married and bore him children.
Perhaps because the dream lacked parental pressure and societal discrimination, factors present in reality, the marriage life for the four occasionally had minor argunts and frictions. Overall, it was very happy, more harmonious than usual couples, and evoked envy from those around them.
Li Peifeng was also quite content, with the only regret being the absence of Zhao Qingge. He desperately wished for Old Zhao to appear in the dream so they could form a complete five-person union and have a shared marriage life in the dream, but that never happened.
Now, Zhao Qingge had finally appeared, but the first thing she did was make Li Peifeng choose.
Either be with Zhao Qingge, or stay with Xu Manning, Wu Wenyue, and Huang Tianxuan...
"I'll give you ten more seconds to think about it." Zhao Qingge urged coldly and rcilessly, her ten fingers slightly spread, as if preparing so move…
"Ten!"
"What's she saying?" Xu Manning sat on the ground, feeling slightly speechless: "Is this whole setup just for… did you guys understand?"
"Nine!"
Wu Wenyue sneered: "Isn't there a possibility that she's just trying to snatch the man?"
"Eight!"
Xu Manning didn't understand: "Are you kidding? The three of us and only one of her, how's she going to snatch? Can she even win?"
"Seven!"
Huang Tianxuan tilted her head: "Not three, but five. My son, your daughter, Yueyue… uh, sorry… forgot. The one snatching our man is your daughter."
"Six!"
"I don't have a daughter like that." Wu Wenyue said angrily and then shouted at Li Peifeng: "What are you dawdling for? Hurry and drive her away! Why is your ntor so shaless in my dream?"
"Five!"
Xu Manning glanced at the two girls beside her and sighed softly: "You guys aren't very shaless in my dream either."
"Four!"
"As if it's not my dream?" Huang Tianxuan looked doubtful: "As if everyone cares about face..."
"Three!"
Zhao Qingge continued her calm countdown, but Li Peifeng could see the two forbidden spells taking shape in her hands. Once unleashed, they were powerful enough to destroy him and the three girls around him, as well as the entire dream.
Even if he could fend this off, he couldn't withstand Zhao Qingge's repeated attacks. The mont they clashed, he would lose…
"I choose you."
Li Peifeng's expression was resolute: "Wife! I choose you!"
Zhao Qingge stopped the countdown, the energy fluctuating between her palms slowly diminishing, her head returning to its original form, revealing a satisfied expression as she nodded slightly: "Then co with ."
Li Peifeng hesitated: "Let say a few words to them first."
"Right, cut off their hopes… uh?"
Xu Manning, realizing, turned from indifferent to shocked: "Who did he call wife? Who's he going with?"
Wu Wenyue quietly picked up a bow and drew an arrow, saying ominously: "Definitely not ."
"How tragic!"
Huang Tianxuan clutched her heart, looking distraught, tears flowing: "What a tragic woman, not getting that man in reality, only to have him in a dream, yet still sharing with two other won. Just when life was getting better, that man was snatched by his vicious ntor."
Huang Tianxuan's tone shifted from sad to resentful, her irises and whites of her eyes turning purple. Her waist-length hair began to float in the air, and two magic staffs appeared in her hands, their gem tips amassing enormous energy.
"But…"
Huang Tianxuan's expression was fiercer than ever: "Are you ready to pay the price, you harlot?"
As soon as she finished, the magic spells from the two staffs shot towards Zhao Qingge in the sky, accompanied by dozens of arrows from Wu Wenyue, all aid at the sa target…
"Whoosh~ Whoosh~"
Zhao Qingge's face remained calm, unmoved, as both magic and arrows vanished five ters in front of her.
"Are there no n left in the world that you fall for your student and compete with your mother for a man?"
Wu Wenyue continued shooting, spouting curses: "I'll drink your blood, eat your flesh, you little b****!"
Huang Tianxuan wielded dual magic staffs, turning into a magic cannon, her robe fluttering, hair waving, her purple eyes unreadable but purple tears streaking her pale cheeks eerily like a legendary banshee. Seeing her attacks fail, her mouth opened wide, unleashing a shrill scream full of unexpressible malice towards Zhao Qingge: "The stars shall fall today!!"
The two were focused on Zhao Qingge, but Xu Manning was different.
Xu Manning's target was Li Peifeng, her anger and hatred not a bit less: "I want to beco a widow, let the children have no father, and let you, heartbreaker, die!!"
"No, really?"
Li Peifeng, frightened by their reactions, quickly changed his stance: "I'm not leaving, not going with her!"
The three girls' attacks subsided while Zhao Qingge frowned, readying another forbidden spell.
Li Peifeng got angry: "Can't I just relax for once? Why must it be a life-and-death struggle? Why bother with romantic entanglents? We clearly have bigger concerns!"
"?"
The girls looked at him confused, as Li Peifeng passionately declared: "Countless beings on this world are oppressed by three mountains, threatened by the Void Demon Fiend, and 28 countries on the Narnia continent remain unliberated. Yet we're here bickering over petty romance, how inappropriate is that?!"
Saying this, before the won could react, wings sprouted on his back, and he soared to the sky, pulling out the Eternal Sword, raising it high, and calling out to the humans, elves, orcs, and other races in the city: "da wa li xi~"
People below, still bewildered by the scene, responded scatteringly:
"ntor!"
"General!"
Li Peifeng paid no mind, combining the battle cry of the dream with reality's resonating sound, echoing throughout the city: "Never forget why we started, and persist in our mission. Aolai's sons prefer arms to adornnts!"
"The Internationale, from today onwards, will be realized, and it must be!!"
"...The Internationale!"
Initially, only a few loud orcs chanted scatteredly, but slowly more joined in, and the voices grew unified.
In less than ten seconds, the massive city, comprising humans, Nords, orcs, elves, rmaids, dragons, and various races, echoed a single voice.
"The Internationale must be realized!!"
It's settled, it's all settled! I managed to bluff through this!!
Li Peifeng glanced at the four dumbfounded won below, feeling relieved, swung his sword, transforming it into a red flag. He waved it, shouting: "Nine Armies, to arms~~ follow !"
