Chapter 460
The party was still going on. Princess Helen, who was the main character of the party, rarely spoke. She was mostly listening and getting to know people.
However, she was able to accurately name everyone who came forward to pay her respects, as well as the time they had last met. This made everyone feel flattered and overjoyed, because this had happened more than a decade ago. Occasionally, some of the nobles who were close to their birthday would receive the blessings of Princess Helen, which made them even more excited.
“Husband, come here for a moment!” Duke dybosse walked to Shen Lang’s side and said in a low voice.
Then, she brought Shen lang to a secret study room and said, ” “A mysterious guest wishes to see you.”
“The high priest of the fire god sect, right?” Shen lang said.
“As smart as you are, my dear husband,” Duke dybosse said.
Then, she kissed Shen lang. She did not bring Shen lang to meet the guests immediately. Instead, she asked, ” “Husband, do you know why I chose to believe in the fire god sect?”
“Why?” Shen lang asked. Is it because of your hot body?”
“That’s one of the reasons, and you’re the one who has the most experience with this,” “But the most important reason is that I’ve seen the powerful and mysterious power of the church of the fire god,” Duke dybosse said.
“Gunpowder?” “Hellfire bugs?” Shen lang asked.
“It’s not just that,” there are also some other things, ” Duke dybosse said. for example, they said that my son would become a Prince, and I saw everything very clearly in the dream. It was extremely real.
“I don’t think that’s all,” Shen lang said.
Duke dybosse was a political creature. Without absolute power, she wouldn’t have chosen to fully cooperate with the fire god sect, or even convert. The prediction that her son would become a Prince would only have a slight effect on her.
“Husband, do you know that there are no truly transcendent powers in the entire Western world?” “The White capital is high and mighty, and they’ve never had any contact with us,” Duke dybosse said. The Royal Court had been established by the former emperor xilun to control the thoughts of the Vida tribesmen. Over a hundred years ago, it had suffered a fatal blow from Empress Helen. That’s why the sect of the fire god is the closest to a transcendent power. They’re equivalent to the embryonic form of your transcendent power in the eastern world.”
Shen lang understood what she meant.
“In the eastern world, the six Supreme powers and the great Yan Empire monopolized the entire ancient civilization and ruled the entire Eastern world.” “It’s clear that the Union between the transcendent powers and the secular royal power is very deep,” dybosse continued.
Thus, Dybas had set her sights on the fire god sect. She had taken a fancy to some of the other party’s mysterious powers, and the other party had taken a fancy to her secular power, so they had hit it off.
“Husband, there’s actually a question that I’ve never been able to figure out.” Duke dybosse asked.
“The eastern world and the great Yan Empire are so powerful. Why don’t they invade the Western world and rule the new continent?” Shen lang asked.
Duke dybosse nodded. She had known that the great Yan Empire was very powerful, but after everything that had happened recently, she realized that the great Yan Empire and the eastern world were much more powerful than she had imagined.
If that was the case, why didn’t the eastern world invade the Western world? why did the great Yan Empire even stop their trade with the Western world? This didn’t seem logical.
In fact, Shen lang was also confused. The six transcendent powers of the eastern world were fighting openly and covertly for the primordial RuinWorld. As for the Western world, there were clearly still some primordial RuinWorld that had yet to be explored. Why didn’t they come to the Western world?
Could it be that the primordial RuinWorld also had its own attributes? The West is only suitable for the West, and the East is only suitable for the East? That didn’t make sense.
It seemed that this world was much more mysterious than he had imagined.
“Alright, my dear husband, are you ready to meet the high priest of the fire god sect?” “What’s going on?” Dybas asked.
“Of course!” Shen lang said.
Then, she walked out, and a moment later, the mysterious high priest of the fire god cult walked in.
It was a mysterious woman wearing a Red Hood. After lifting it, she was a beautiful middle-aged woman with fiery red hair. His eyes were different from ordinary people’s. They seemed to contain some kind of special mental power, as if he could see through people’s hearts with a glance.
Back then, it was this priest who used the Hellfire bugs to kill Shen lang.
“Greetings, Sir Shen lang.” “I hereby formally apologize to you for the unpleasant incident a few months ago,” the high priest of the fire god sect said.
Shen lang frowned and said, ” it wasn’t just unpleasant. I had 39 Amazon Warriors who were sacrificed. They didn’t die on the battlefield, but died in your schemes and assassinations. If I don’t give an explanation, I won’t forget this matter.”
“Of course, I will explain it to you.” The high priest of fire god sect clapped his hands.
Suddenly, someone carried in a few large boxes. When they opened them, they saw that they were filled with human heads.
“There are ninety-nine human heads here, all of them belong to our fire god sect.” because they offended you, ” the high priest said. they are willing to commit suicide to redeem themselves. Of course, if it is not enough, you can give them a number.
How ruthless. However, was it suicide or was it suicide?
Shen lang could not help but look at the high priest. The main culprits of Shen Lang’s assassination were Dybas and the high priest in front of him. Now that Dybas had become his wife, how was the high priest going to redeem himself?
The mysterious high priest took off his cloak without saying a word, but it was empty.
of course, if you think this is not enough, you can tell me. As long as I can get your understanding, I will do anything. The high priest of the fire god sect said.
The high priest of the fire god sect was very beautiful, but Shen lang already had enough women in the Western world. Furthermore, he was really helpless.
Since you can’t wear your clothes, let’s just chat like this.
“I think you probably don’t have an appetite now.” The high priest of the fire god sect said. Then, she took out another box. After opening it, there was an ancient book inside.
this is a gift for you. Please accept it, or we’ll feel uneasy. The high priest of the fire god sect said.
This was a precious gift. It was the first time Shen lang had seen an ancient book in the Western world. The fire god sect had some mysterious and powerful ancient powers. Therefore, Shen lang might be able to research some more mysterious weapons from this ancient book.
“I’ll take it.” Shen lang said,”high priest, may I know why you came to see me?” I have to tell you that Helen and I are indeed brother and sister, but I will never interfere with any internal affairs of the xilun Empire. I will not agree to any request on her behalf.”
“Of course.” “Everything we’re doing is just to make up for our previous mistakes,” the high priest of fire god sect said.”There are absolutely no conditions.”
He was indeed a smart person.
Then, the high priest of the fire god sect took out a piece of silk and placed it on the chair. He asked Shen lang, ” “Can I?”
“Of course.” “Please have a seat,” Shen lang said.
The high priest of the fire god sect sat down elegantly and organized his words for a while. “I know that Sir Shen lang had many conflicts with those Supreme powers in the Western world. “The transcendent powers of the eastern world are extremely powerful. In comparison, we are like newborn babies, but it is precisely because of this that we are malleable. At least we’re not that arrogant and conservative, and our stance is quite open-minded.”
“How many years has your sect developed?” Shen lang laughed.
The high priest of the fire god sect said, ” if we are talking about history, I can say that it has been 500 years. But in front of you, I choose to be honest. We have really found the Holy altar and started to develop. It has only been 100 years, and we have been staggering.
“However, I have already witnessed the power of your sect,” Shen lang said.
“In an Oriental saying, it’s a joke,” the high priest of fire god sect said.
Following that, the two of them began to chat. The high priest of the fire god sect made it very clear that she was here to make friends. Everything was for friendship and not profit, so there was no negotiation.
In short, there was only one meaning in her words. They must not have any prejudice against the fire god sect because of the Supreme power of the eastern world. And don’t adopt a hostile attitude because of the unpleasant things that happened before.
Shen lang didn’t mention that the fire god sect was like the prototype of the Western world’s supreme power. However, it was far from becoming the Overlord.
In fact, there was also a mysterious supreme power that had already been born. It was the pyramid on the peak of the snow Mountain in the ruins of the lost capital. It was a power that was temporarily completely isolated from the world.
I have disturbed you for a long time. Thank you for taking the time to meet me. I will not forget this favor. “Finally, I would like to invite you to visit our fire god sect’s sacred altar at a suitable time,” the high priest said.
Shen lang said, ” I will. When I feel that the conditions are right, I will send an application to your sect. I have already felt your friendship.
The high priest of fire god sect stood up and pointed at his cloak, ” “Can I?”
“Of course.” thank you, high priest, ” Shen lang said. thank you for letting me look at the beautiful scenery while we talk.
“It’s my honor to be appreciated by a man like you.” The high priest of fire god sect put on his cloak and said, ” “Then I’ll take my leave. I wish you a smooth journey back to the eastern world and that you’ll be able to achieve your final wish.”
Shen lang said,”thank you, thank you!” I also wish your religion a smooth development.”
“Can I?” The high priest of fire god sect asked and then opened his arms.
“Of course.” Shen lang also opened his arms.
The two of them hugged each other. The high priest of the fire god sect even kissed Shen Lang’s cheek.
When they walked out of the door, the high priest of fire god sect said, ” Mr. Shen lang, pardon me for asking, but are you planning to go to Queen City? ”
“Yes,” Shen lang said.”
“I personally suggest that you go as soon as possible,” the high priest of the fire god sect said.
When he said that, Shen Lang’s eyes trembled. What did he mean?
Soon, Shen lang realized that the church of the god of fire should have their own intelligence organization. Furthermore, they were very close to the northern nobles. Therefore, they were able to obtain some secret information.
“Thank you for the information!”
Then, Shen lang did not return to the banquet hall. Instead, he stood on the balcony and looked in the direction of the Queen’s city.
Of course, he couldn’t see anything. They were more than 10000 miles away from Queen City.
Shen lang had promised his baby one one that he would pick her up within a year. Even if he had to crawl, he would crawl to her. There were still two months left.
However, Shen lang decided to leave for the Queen’s city tomorrow. The earlier, the better.
It wasn’t enough for him to go alone. The key was that Princess Helen was also there. But before that, Princess Helen must hold a meeting with all the nobles in the South to confirm the establishment of the new noble faction in the South. Only then could she go north to the Queen’s city, so that she would have absolute confidence in the next negotiation with soran.
“What’s wrong, my dear?” Duke dybosse hugged Shen lang from behind.
“How long until the banquet ends?” Shen lang asked.
“About two hours,” Duke dybosse said.
Shen lang said, ” I won’t go back then. I’ll head to the Queen’s city first. Helen is highly skilled in martial arts, so she can catch up with me after two more rounds.”
“What’s wrong?” Duke dybosse asked. Are there any changes in Queen City?”
“It’s a change that can’t be considered a change,” Shen lang said.
“Then I’ll go with you, husband,” Dybas said.
Shen lang said, ” no need. You’ve just been pregnant. It’s not suitable for you to travel long distances. Furthermore, be it Jade City or Mulan city, they can’t do without your planning.”
my dear, ” Duke dybosse said softly, ” we haven’t been together for long. Are we going to separate now? ”
This sentence came from her political instinct, but it also came from her emotional instinct. She was a political creature, but she was not emotionless. However, before she invested in her feelings, she would be absolutely rational and put benefits above all else. When it was in line with her interests, she would also invest in sincere feelings, because she also knew how to make herself happy and sweet. No matter how strong she was, a woman without love might not be complete.
Shen lang patted her waist and said, ” “Dora, let’s get ready. We’ll set off immediately.”
“Yes!”
15 minutes later!
Under the protection of the 1000 Amazon soldiers, Shen lang boarded the fastest ship of the skeleton party and left the waters of Jade City. He headed towards the Queen’s city and would arrive in about 12 days.
As he stood on the bow of the ship, Shen lang looked at the northern sky. Queen Medusa’s words seemed to ring in his ears again.
Shen lang, I will return Chou Yao ‘er to you. I will return her to you in one piece.
Shen lang sighed in his heart. He knew very well that even though they were the parents of his baby, they were not fated to be together.
“Baby one one, daddy is here to pick you up.”
..........................................
The journey was silent, and twelve days passed by quickly.
Shen Lang’s ship was still flying the skeleton gang’s flag, but he did not encounter any obstacles. Along the way, he encountered many merchant ships, fleets, and scattered Pirates. Not only did he not encounter any trouble, but he even received unanimous cheers and salutes. The Pirates cheered ‘long live the skeleton gang’. On the other hand, the Noble’s ships and the Vida’s merchant ships cheered’ Long Live the Princess’.
News spread very quickly in this world, as if it had a mouth, especially on the sea. Whether it was Pirates or sea merchants, they could get the latest news in the city’s pubs and brothels. Of course, whether it was 100% true or not was unknown, because Pirates were the profession that loved to brag the most in this world.
long live Princess Helen!
“Long live the skeleton gang.”
“Long live Duke Shen lang!”
Twelve days later, the ship had traveled more than twelve thousand miles and arrived at Siva city, two hundred miles Southeast of the Queen’s city.
The Lord of the city, the Siva family, was the most loyal subject of Queen Helen, and the most staunch supporter of the Queen’s two benevolent policies. It was also because of this that he was strongly suppressed by the entire Northern nobles and almost could not survive. So when Queen Medusa attacked, he also announced his allegiance and hung the banner of the witch Empire. After that, Duke Russell’s 200000-strong Army attacked Siva city, and the Duke chose to surrender.
Ten months ago, Shen Lang’s merchant ship landed in Siva city. Back then, the entire city was a huge military camp. It was still the same, but the smoke and blood were no longer there.
As soon as Shen Lang’s warship approached the dock, three ships came up to greet them and waved their flags. The moment they landed, they saw the guards of honor of the third xilun Empire. The one in the lead was Duke Russell, and the second should be Duke Siva.
A month ago, Duke Russell had led an army of one hundred thousand back to Siva city. Of course, even by sea, the Army of 100000 would not have been able to complete a full retreat in a month. It was Duke Russell who returned first on a ship. He even went to the capital of xilun before heading south to Siva to take charge of the situation.
This was because Princess Helen and Sauron were about to have a real battle, and this battle would determine the fate of the entire xilun Empire.
welcome to the eastern land of the Empire once again, Respected Sir Shen lang. Duke Russell extended his hand to Shen lang.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you again,” Shen lang shook his hand.
Next, he reached out to shake Duke Shiva’s hand, but the latter stepped forward to hug him, looking particularly excited.
Lord Shen lang, although I was unable to attend the banquet that night due to certain reasons, the Siva family will always stand on Princess Helen’s side. Even if we lose all our land and Army, the Siva family will still be the princess’s subjects. Duke Siva had said this in front of Duke Russell, even though his city had already been completely occupied.
“On behalf of my sister, I thank you for your loyalty.” Shen lang said, ” Sirs, I’m very happy to be a guest at Siva city. However, I need to get to Queen City as soon as possible. I’ll take my leave.
goodbye, Sir Shen lang. We have prepared all the supplies for you on the way to the Queen’s city.
Then, under the gazes of the two Dukes and the 5000 guards of honor, Shen lang led the 1000 Amazon soldiers and headed towards Queen City.
....................................
After a few hours, Shen lang arrived at the Queen’s city.
He once again saw the beautiful pink City. The Queen’s city was still surrounded by an Army of at least 300000 soldiers. The large open space outside the city was even filled with all kinds of defense lines and barracks.
Shen lang and his group were not stopped at all. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the third xilun Empire made way for them. However, no officer or noble came to welcome Shen lang because they were the armies of the northern nobles.
They entered the Queen’s city again. There was no more laughter here, but it was not dark and desperate. The city wasn’t as romantic as it used to be, but everyone’s eyes were still filled with a certain spirit.
Everyone knew that Princess Helen had returned, and the master who had left them finally realized his power and responsibility.
The Queen, Duke Hall, came to welcome Shen lang. He had mixed feelings. No one could compare to his feelings for Queen Helen, and no noble could compare to his loyalty and affection for Princess Helen.
The Duke of Great Hall had had infinite expectations of Princess Helen since he was a child, but she left and chose to wander around.
There was nothing more sorrowful than a dead heart. Duke Hall felt that he was only Helen’s general manager and did not have the ability to protect this great city, so it was likely that it would fall into the hands of the greedy Northern nobles. It was also at this time that Queen Medusa appeared and protected the city.
Protect, not occupy.
Duke Hall was extremely loyal to Princess Helen. As for Queen Medusa, Duke Hall had unparalleled worship and treated her like a god.
At this moment, his expression was extremely complicated.
We meet again, Respected Sir Shen lang. Duke Hall opened his arms.
Shen lang went forward to hug him and said,”Lord Huo ‘er, this is how the world is.” It’s filled with dissatisfaction all the time, but it’s also filled with surprises.”
“Who said it wasn’t?” but this may be the best ending, ” Duke Hall said. even though it’s a little damaging to my feelings. However, the gods won’t care too much about our personal feelings, right?”
“There’s a saying in the East,” if the heavens have feelings, the heavens will grow old,”” Shen lang said.
The two of them talked as they galloped towards the palace.
..............................
After passing through the long tunnel, Shen lang entered the underground tomb of the palace. Queen Medusa was gone. Even the four mysterious experts that were guarding her were gone.
Shen lang looked at the empty underground Palace and sighed in his heart.
Even though they had already expected this, it was still a pity when it actually happened.
Closing his eyes, it was as if he could still feel Queen Medusa’s presence. Her fragrance was extremely deep, and it would not dissipate for a long time no matter where she had been.
Or perhaps, her fragrance had been engraved in Shen Lang’s memory, and he could smell it whenever he thought about it.
I knew that this would be the case, but it’s a pity that I can’t say goodbye.
Then, Shen lang overthrew this view. It was better not to say goodbye. Because once they said goodbye, it might really be forever.
They left the underground tomb and returned to the palace.
“When did the Queen leave?” Shen lang asked.
at night about thirteen days ago, all the children in the Queen’s city seemed to have heard a children’s song that night and became very obedient. Duke Hall said.
On the night of the banquet, all the southern nobles came to celebrate the return of Princess Helen.
It was as if there could only be one woman in the entire southern region of the Empire. When Princess Helen announced her return, Queen Medusa left.
Of course, Queen Medusa had never been the master of this land. She was only a temporary protector.
..................
Shen lang walked into the wuchen Palace and saw the snow-white jade bed from afar. There was a small person sleeping on it.
Almost a year had passed, but his one and one baby did not seem to have grown up much. He was still so delicate and exquisite, like a transparent jade.
Shen lang came to the bed and looked at the portraits beside 11. Some were drawn by Shen lang, and some were drawn by her.
The latest drawing was especially good. Although the three people’s faces were blurry, they were the most similar. A family of three, father, mother, and Yiyi.
In the past 10 months, the little baby had relied on these portraits and Shen Lang’s promise to survive.
Shen lang went forward and stroked baby one one’s hair. He said in a hoarse and gentle voice, ” “Baby one one, daddy is here.”
After a while, baby one one opened his blurry eyes and hugged Shen Lang’s neck.
Shen lang carried her up and looked at the little baby carefully.
She had changed!
Her eyes were not as tired as before, and her breathing was stronger.
Her heartbeat was also much stronger.
Queen Medusa had said that she would give her daughter something before she left so that she could hold on, at least for a few years.
“Baby, daddy will bring you to mommy in the future, okay?” Shen lang asked.
11 nodded hard.
“Do you know where mom is?” Shen lang asked.
One one nodded, but then shook his head.
Shen lang understood. She could not say it now, but she would know when she grew up.
She hoped that Queen Medusa was not lying to her.
Hopefully, she didn’t really leave Yingying for good.
Shen lang carried little one and walked out of the wuchen Palace. This was the first time in a few years that the little darling had left the palace to the outside world.
Standing at the highest point of the palace, Yiyi’s big eyes looked at the colorful world greedily.
She was lucky. The first time she saw the outside world was this beautiful Queen’s city. She couldn’t wait to paint it all.
............
Queen Medusa had left for more than ten days. There was no news at all and she had not returned.
Shen lang did not stay in Queen City. He left with baby one in his arms. He did not go to the pier in Siva city either. Instead, he headed east. There was no Pier there, only a reef and a narrow beach.
The Amazon Army built a beautiful thatched house for Shen lang and 11 to live in.
The father and daughter were waiting there, waiting for a certain figure to appear.
Three days later!
A tired figure slowly came from the north to the south, wading over the water.
The waves almost drowned her body.
She raised her head and looked at Shen lang and 11. Then, she started to run.
She was Chou Yao ‘er, the female hero who was filled with heroic spirit.
She was 100% Chou Yao ‘er. In fact, she looked exactly the same as when they had separated a few years ago.

[ note: they went to the hot spring, but I was still in my room writing. ] I’m about to leave the Western world. Brothers, give me your monthly tickets. I’ll give you a bow as a pastry!
