"Sister, why are you looking at me like that?" Feng Ruoyu shrank her neck and said uncomfortably.
"Little girl, the stories your brother Qi Bei told are also lies. Don't you think he is childish?" Feng Ruoyun said.
"But, I don't think he is blowing." Feng Ruoyu retorted.
Feng Ruoyu looked at her sister's clear big eyes and smiled. Maybe she was overthinking it. Although her sister was weird and knew everything, knowing didn't mean she understood.
"You, don't you know that Qi Bei will also go to his fiefdom after getting engaged? If you want to hear the story, please ask a bard to tell it to you." Feng Ruoyun touched her sister's hair lovingly.
Feng Ruoyu muttered a few words, then her eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "Sister, look, brother Qi Bei and sister Mingyue are here."
Qi Bei took Princess Mingyue's little hand and got off the carriage. Behind him, the two rows of palace maids and the maids of the Nord family pulled the long concentric belt on Princess Mingyue's body. The petals flying all over the sky fell down, and the guests present burst into warm applause.
The engagement ceremony officially begins.
The high priest of the Temple of the Goddess of Life walked out of the temple, and the guests present began to gather around Qi Bei and Princess Mingyue, and the two protagonists were naturally the focus of everyone's attention.
Faced with the sincere or false congratulations from everyone, Qi Bei returned the greetings with a faint smile from beginning to end. His courtesy was impeccable. Only then did he show the demeanor and grace that a son of a noble family should have.
tolerance.
Princess Mingyue also smiled reservedly, glancing at Qi Bei's smiling face from time to time. She didn't know why, but she always felt a little awkward looking at his demeanor. He was obviously a bastard, but he pretended to be a gentleman.
At this time, the chief priest of the temple held the sacred book, faced the statue of the goddess of life, and began to recite blessings.
The high priest's slightly hoarse voice recited a prayer that was completely incomprehensible in a strange pronunciation rhythm. The entire square, including the people watching the excitement outside the square's isolation zone, fell silent.
Syllables rushed into Qi Bei's ears as if they were tangible, giving him a strange feeling, as if his thoughts had penetrated time and space and reached a mysterious world.
There, a pair of autumn-like eyes were looking at him softly, with a hint of surprise.
Who is that? How can there be such beautiful eyes in this world? They are like a bright starry sky embedded in them. At a glance, it makes people feel that their souls have been sublimated.
Qi Bei opened his eyes angrily, trying to see clearly.
But at this moment, Qi Bei's whole body was shaken, and his thoughts seemed to be forcefully pulled back.
"Why are you so stunned? The high priest asked us to come forward." Princess Mingyue looked at him inexplicably, as if his soul had left his body just now.
"Oh, I was a little sleepy just now." Qi Bei shrugged, and walked hand in hand with Princess Mingyue to the chief priest of the temple.
The chief priest of the temple is an old man with a kind face, his body is spotless, his eyes are clear, and he is full of vitality.
"You are all children of God. The goddess of life blesses you, and the inheritance of life will continue forever." The chief priest of the temple said as he stretched out his hand and wiped the foreheads of Qi Bei and Princess Mingyue from a distance. Suddenly, a faint brilliance swept over them.
Two people.
Qi Bei and Princess Mingyue both felt as if their bodies had been injected with extra vitality, and every pore opened comfortably.
This is the life magic that only a few high priests of the Temple of Life know according to rumors. It is indeed extraordinary.
Next, the chief priest of the temple held an emerald green jade bowl. There was a faint glistening liquid in the bowl. This is the holy water of life that many believers desire. It can prolong life and get rid of all diseases.
Qi Bei drank it when he was born. He was born into the most noble family in the Jinye Dynasty and always had privileges.
During an engagement or wedding, the two people must drink the holy water of life together.
When ordinary people get engaged or hold a wedding in the Temple of Life, they only host ordinary sacrifices, and the holy water of life they drink is actually just pure water.
"Under the statue of the Goddess of Life, Qi Bei. Nord, are you willing to be bound to Mingyue Jinye for a lifetime and never leave her in this life?" The chief priest of the temple looked at Qi Bei.
"I do." Qi Bei replied, although this kind of question made him a little uncomfortable.
"Under the statue of the Goddess of Life, Mingyue Golden Leaf, are you willing to be bound to Qibei Nord for a lifetime and never leave her in this life?" The chief priest of the temple looked at Princess Mingyue.
"I……"
"She doesn't want to!" Just when Princess Mingyue was about to reply, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded.
All the guests were in an uproar. They looked over in search of the voice and saw a handsome young man in a purple magic robe walking proudly over.
Qi Bei half-squinted his eyes and raised a cold arc at the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, this engagement ceremony would not be peaceful.
"I have no intention of blaspheming the great Goddess of Life. I am just telling the truth. Lying in front of the Goddess of Life is the greatest disrespect to the Goddess of Life. Princess Mingyue told me personally that she only got engaged to this boy out of necessity.
Fentian said loudly.
"Who is this? You are so brave. Even if you are wearing the skin of a magician, you still don't see this as a match."
"Could it be that he is Princess Mingyue's sweetheart?"
"You guys know nothing. Let me tell you, he is a disciple of Tongtian Mountain, one of the five holy places. He is convinced that His Majesty and the Nord family do not dare to do anything to him."
All the guests were talking a lot, and due to the bad nature of human nature, not only were they not worried, but they were extremely excited.
Emperor Hamos and the head of the Nord family, who were seated above, had expressionless faces, as if this sudden change had nothing to do with them.
"I am willing, I am willing to be engaged to Qibei Nord." At this moment, Princess Mingyue said, her voice was not loud, but she used magic vibration, which echoed in the square for a long time.
Fentian's expression froze, and he suddenly felt like a fool. He worked hard to go crazy, but everyone ignored him.
The chief priest of the temple smiled and handed over the jade bowl containing the holy water of life in his hand.
Qi Bei, who had a calm expression on his face, took it, drank half of it in one gulp, and quietly spit out some more, then handed the jade bowl to Princess Mingyue.
Princess Mingyue took it and was about to drink it when she heard Fen Tian say: "Junior sister, you have just entered Tongtian Mountain. Maybe you don't know that Tongtian Mountain disciples cannot get engaged privately without the master's permission."
Princess Mingyue was stunned. Katie had never told her about this rule, but she didn't know about her engagement either.
However, Princess Mingyue was only stunned for a moment, and then drank all the holy water of life in the jade bowl.
"Junior sister, you..." Fentian shouted in disbelief. This move was his trump card. He would not be unprepared when he came to cause trouble. But who knew he had anticipated the possible reactions of the royal family and the Nord family?
, but only Princess Mingyue’s reaction was not expected.
Qi Bei glanced at Princess Mingyue in surprise, and then at Fen Tian, whose face was blue and white, and suddenly sympathized with this guy.
