At that mont, a group of people wearing dignified clothes walked to Niao-Chen! They were the village chiefs and important elders of the six villages.
"Respect, Clan Leader Niao-Chen! I sincerely congratulate your daughter. It's a great honor for us to have the opportunity to attend this wedding. And on this occasion, I brought the most precious present we could find to the newlyweds. I hope you don't mind accepting our present," a tall, middle-aged man with a thick beard at the front spoke up. He took out the wrapped present and politely handed it to Clan Leader Niao-Chen.
Blop!
"I certainly don't mind. Whether the present is of small or large value is not as important as kindness and goodwill. However, I was disrespectful in not sending you an invitation. I, Niao-Chen, Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader, must apologize!" Niao-Chen took the present and spoke naturally. He tried to find fault with the other's expression, but he did not see anything out of the ordinary.
"Ah, not at all! It's our fault, Clan Leader Niao-Chen! Because we rarely attend social events like this. That makes us look like we don't care about this kind of thing. But now, all six villages of us have agreed that from today on, we'll participate and be a part of Comrade City!" An elder in his sixty years of age stepped forward and refused Niao-Chen's apology. Also, he announced that today they had changed. They would all ask to be part of Comrade City.
Ah!
'Actually, they just want to rely on Comrade City's good luck! It's probably because of the news that Comrade City was under the protection of the Heavenly Command Sect. So, they co out and say they want to be a part of Comrade City. Without them saying that they would be under us!'
Niao-Chen finally understood the reason these people were attending his daughter's wedding. He felt extrely dissatisfied that they had co because they wanted to make a profit without having to do anything or lose anything.
"For this, we should wait for my daughter's wedding to be finished first. Then call all clan leaders to a eting to discuss. I alone cannot make this decision. Anyway, I'm happy that you all want to be a part of Comrade City. So that we can all help each other!" Niao-Chen did not want to decide on this matter. He then referred to a eting where other clan leaders had to be involved in making decisions.
"We understand that! First of all, this is the present we prepared for you." The elder nodded, understanding Niao-Chen's aning. He and the other village chiefs had discussed this before as well.
"Thank you very much! If so, please co inside first. I'll let soone prepare the table for you. And if there's anything you need, you can tell those servants!" Niao-Chen clasped his hands in gratitude before inviting those people inside.
"Thank you, Clan Leader Niao-Chen!!!"
They responded in unison.
And when they walked away, Niao-Chen's son imdiately said, "Father, they ca because..."
"You don't have to say anything now. I don't know if they ca because of that. If they really want to be friendly, that's good for us. But first of all, we have to make them pay the fees!" Niao-Chen did not mind that the six villages would beco allies with the various clans in the city. But it would not be as simple as just telling each other. Because every city's old clan had helped to build and develop the city and lost a lot of wealth before the city could prosper as it was this day. After all, the six villages had to give sothing of sufficient value as a fee for the agreent.
"Yes, sir, Father! If so, I'll take care of the guests first!" The young man nodded in understanding, before excusing himself to go actively help take care of the guests at the banquet.
"All right! You can go and I'll be right here. And please take a look at your younger sister as well. Because the groom's procession will soon arrive. We must prepare well to welco them!"
"Yes, sir, Father!"
Returning to Erald Wolf Clan…
The groom's procession had everything prepared. They had a music troupe playing in front. The next was the group holding the dowry, and then the groom at the end, along with the people in the procession who paraded together.
"Big Brother, today is your important day; you should make your face look handso. Why do you look so worried?!" Zheng-Fu rode his horse to a stop next to Da-Ge's horse, teasing the young man who looked very serious and worried.
"It's my first ti getting married. So, I felt nervous, afraid that I might do sothing wrong. By the way, do you have any advice for , Second Brother?" Da-Ge did not argue. Because he was really worried and nervous.
"Ha ha ha! For this matter, I can't help Big Brother either. Because I haven't been married yet, hehe!" Zheng-Fu wanted to help Da-Ge. But he had never been married before, so he could not give any advice.
"Master Da-Ge, don't worry. Everything will definitely go smoothly. There's nothing complicated in each step. You just follow the elders' advice." Fei-Shi-Fei rode his horse to a stop beside him and gave a little advice. Seeing Da-Ge's nervous face and Zheng-Fu's cheerful expression, he imdiately knew that Da-Ge needed so help.
Umm!
"Thank you so much, Uncle Shi-Fei, for guiding . Unlike my Second Brother, who only teases ," Da-Ge turned to thank Fei-Shi-Fei, before turning to Zheng-Fu with a sarcastic comnt.
"Do you see as that kind of person? Big Brother! I'm such a good person." Zheng-Fu raised his hand and rubbed his head shyly at Da-Ge's sarcastic but true statent.
"Yes! You're such a person, Second Brother! But even with that kind of person, you're my Second Brother and the person who helps in many matters. Thank you so much!" Even though Da-Ge spoke directly, he said it from the heart. And he really admired and thanked Zheng-Fu very much.
"Don't say that, Big Brother! Now you're going to have a family. I'm very happy with you. All right! We're starting to get closer to the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan's gates, make yourself look good and handso, Big Brother. Sister-in-law is waiting for you inside!" Zheng-Fu smiled. He tried to say sothing aningful but could not help teasing the young man.
Umm!
Da-Ge's groom procession slowly moved from the Erald Wolf Clan to the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan. So that people along the route can join in congratulating them. And soon the procession arrived at the entrance of the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan. Clan Leader Niao-Chen, the clan's elders, and servants imdiately ca out to welco them.
"Respect, Father-in-law!" Da-Ge greeted Niao-Chen politely and friendly. He called Niao-Chen 'father-in-law' without any embarrassnt.
"Welco, Master… Erm… My Son-in-law!" Niao-Chen was accustod to calling Da-Ge 'Master', so he said the word first. But when he heard Da-Ge call him that, he imdiately changed his calling. Then he invited Da-Ge and the others inside, "Everything is ready, let's go inside."
Normally, a father-in-law like him did not have to personally co out to welco a son-in-law. But Da-Ge was a special person. Niao-Chen then ca out to welco him in person.
"Thank you, Father-in-law, for coming out to welco in person. You've honored so much. Actually, I should go inside and pay homage to you!" Even though Da-Ge had never been married, he knew that his father-in-law would be waiting inside. And it was he who had to lead the procession to pay respects.
"About that…"
"Co on, Big Brother! Your 'Father-in-law' ca out to welco you in person like this, which shows that your 'Father-in-law' is sincere and admires you very much. Let's not go against the wishes of your 'Father-in-law', Big Brother!" Zheng-Fu interrupted before Niao-Chen could explain. He knew that Niao-Chen probably did not know how to explain this, so he offered to help.
Ah!
"It's as Young Master Zheng-Fu said. Then please, everyone, co in!" Niao-Chen was very grateful to Zheng-Fu for speaking on his behalf. And so as not to waste ti, he invited everyone inside.
"All right!!!"
After Niao-Chen brought everyone in, the waiting guests all stood up to show respect to Da-Ge and Zheng-Fu. Most people knew how strong Zheng-Fu was. There were only a few who did not know because they had not participated in the previous banquet.
"Young Miss Niao-Zhu-Qi is truly a lucky person to have a husband like Master Da-Ge!"
"You don't know anything. The luckier one was the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan. Because a son-in-law like Master Da-Ge is a Half-deity stage identity. From now on, no one will dare to challenge this clan!"
"True! If that's the case, the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan might beco Comrade City's number one clan, right?"
"No one can tell this matter. But what I can tell you is that no clan would dare to challenge and be disrespectful to the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan anymore!"
"Umm! But do you see those people? They don't look like people from the villages around here."
"Which ones? Ah! Those are the six village chiefs of the villages surrounding Comrade City. I recognized everyone because I had seen them before. But what are they doing to co here?"
The people in attendance discussed the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan's good fortune and predicted the future of this clan from this marriage. But then a group of people caught their attention. Those were the six village chiefs who ca to this wedding. No one thought that these people would join.
"Are they the village chiefs of the six suburban villages? Haven't you told that they don't like to participate in any activities in the city? So why did they co to this event?" Zheng-Fu heard what everyone was saying. This matter also caught his attention. He turned to ask Elder Shi-Kong next to him.
"I also don't know why they ca. Normally, they shouldn't have co. Strangely, they all ca together like this. Or do they have bad intentions?" Elder Shi-Kong also thought that these people might have so kind of intention.
"But from what I have investigated, they don't have any bad intentions. Their facial expressions and postures looked very normal. It was as if they intended to attend Big Brother's wedding like everyone else. But no matter what their intentions were, if they dared to cause trouble here, I'll erase their villages from this world." Zheng-Fu imdiately used his psychic energy to survey the people from the six villages. He did not find anything unusual in the slightest. But he still did not trust them completely.
Ah!
Elder Shi-Kong knew that Zheng-Fu was soone who would actually do what he had said. He felt that it was good that his clan and the other clans in the city were not enemies with Zheng-Fu. Otherwise, every clan that dared to have an issue with him would definitely disappear from this world.
"Hope that they don't do any bad things!"
