"Yan King, you colluded with the Yue Kingdom and invaded my Yellow Dragon Empire, starting a war without reason, causing my people to suffer. Do you realize your mistake?" Wang Xiaoqiang sternly asked.
The Yan King's body shook, his knees went weak, and he knelt before Wang Xiaoqiang, "I realize my mistake."
After all, the Yan King was a coward who cherished life and feared death.
"But it was these guys who incited me to do it," the Yan King pointed at his ministers, speaking innocently and angrily.
The ministers trembled at his words, all knelt to the ground, not daring to argue, pleading with Wang Xiaoqiang for mercy.
Wang Xiaoqiang said, "You want to atone for your sins, right? It's simple, just hand over all the gold coins from your houses."
The ministers, seeing that Wang Xiaoqiang wanted gold, dared not delay, and immediately went home to collect the gold coins.
The Yan King, seeking to save his life, very eagerly guided Wang Xiaoqiang to the national treasury.
In the treasury, there were more than sixty million gold coins stored.
Wang Xiaoqiang took out three thousand gold coins and put them into the Sumeru Ring. Seeing the Yan King's sensibility, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yan King, do you want to be like Madame Gou Yi, who lost her country but not her throne, and remain the Yan King?"
The Yan King was indescribably excited at these words; he really wanted to be like Madame Gou Yi, losing his country but not his dignity. He knelt before Wang Xiaoqiang, "I dare not!"
Wang Xiaoqiang gave him a glance and said leisurely, "I actually hope you continue to rule the Yan Kingdom, but you are different from Madame Gou Yi. Madame Gou Yi is willing to become my woman. As for you, a big man, with no hold in my hand, it's not easy to hand over the Yan Kingdom to you without worrying." Wang Xiaoqiang said dominantly, as if the Yan Kingdom was originally his.
"I have loved the Fragrant Concubine all my life. The Fragrant Concubine and I have a daughter named Princess Xiangxiang. Like her mother, the Fragrant Concubine, Princess Xiangxiang has a natural fragrance, loved by everyone, reigning as the most beautiful in the world. She is seventeen years old this year, has not yet been betrothed, and remains in the boudoir…" The Yan King, like a pimp, praised his daughter with flying brows, and then said, "Marshal Wang, if you don't mind, you can take her in as a consort!"
For a dignified king, to personally promise his daughter to someone else, and only as a concubine at that, would be an absolute disgrace if it were to be known!
Wang Xiaoqiang played with a smile and said, "Hmm, your idea is good, at least it makes me feel assured about you, but as you can see, I am not lacking women around me, and each of my women is of peerless beauty. If your Princess Xiangxiang is not up to par, I will not agree..."
"Marshal Wang, please wait a moment, I will have Princess Xiangxiang come immediately!" the Yan King said eagerly, quickly taking out a Communication Talisman, made a quick gesture, and a beautiful face appeared within it, an unparalleled beauty that took the world by storm!
"Xiangxiang, come over here!" The Yan King, servile beside Wang Xiaoqiang, was suddenly authoritative in front of his daughter. Princess Xiangxiang answered quietly from the Jade Talisman, not daring to defy the order.
The Yan King closed the Communication Talisman, showing a changed smile, "Marshal Wang, Princess Xiangxiang will be here soon."
Before long.
A seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl arrived in front of Wang Xiaoqiang, accompanied by two maids.
"Aren't you going to greet Marshal Wang?" The Yan King reminded the girl.
The girl showed a bit of fear, gave a slight bow, and sweetly and softly said, "Greetings, Marshal Wang!"
"Marshal Wang, this is my daughter, Princess Xiangxiang!" The Yan King said to Wang Xiaoqiang, pointing at the girl with a smile.
Wang Xiaoqiang looked up and down at the girl, seeing that the girl before him was incredibly beautiful and indescribably lovely, like a bright pearl, like fine jade, radiantly beyond compare, with skin as white as snow beneath her thin garments, long jet-black hair draped over her fragrant shoulders, her eyes sparkling like stars, almost dreamlike.
While examining Princess Xiangxiang, Wang Xiaoqiang smelled a fragrance, a faint and delicate scent emanating from her, not floral nor cosmetic, very unique, just elegant and refreshing, sweet and indescribable. Wang Xiaoqiang sniffed and said, "Princess Xiangxiang, hmm, truly worthy of your name!"
Princess Xiangxiang blushed bashfully, lifting her sleeve to cover her hibiscus-like face.
The Yan King smiled and said, "My daughter never uses cosmetics. She also never bathes with flower petals. Her fragrance is innate."
"Uh... is that so, pure as the water from Qingshui, natural without embellishment. Princess Xiangxiang, naturally beautiful, just what I like... Yan King, I've made up my mind; the Yan Kingdom remains the Yan Kingdom, and you are still the Yan Emperor, understand?" Wang Xiaoqiang patted the Yan King's shoulder.
The Yan King, overwhelmed with excitement, immediately knelt on the floor, tearfully grateful, "Thank you, Marshal Wang, for making it possible. However, from now on, the Yan Kingdom is yours. I will follow your orders without any objections."
"Hmm... good, get up." Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hand and said, "I assume the ministers have returned by now, I'll go collect the gold coins. You go make preparations; tonight, I want to dine with Princess Xiangxiang."
"Yes, I will obey!" The Yan King agreed, scampering off.
...
That evening.
The moon was bright, the stars sparse, and the night breeze intoxicating!
The palace was brightly lit.
The Jade Banquet Hall was even more brilliantly illuminated, full of laughter and joy. The sound of finger-guessing games could also be heard, making it very lively.
The Jade Banquet Hall was hosting a grand banquet.
Wang Xiaoqiang had called his subordinates' generals to the Jade Banquet Hall. These generals had followed him in battle, and he needed to reward them to ensure their loyalty, so they would follow him wholeheartedly.
Wang Xiaoqiang had arranged a woman for each of them, for their enjoyment. These women were selected from the Yan Kingdom Palace, all of them of exceptional beauty.
Princess Xiangxiang sat beside Wang Xiaoqiang.
Her whole body emitted a fragrant aroma, and her hibiscus-like face was like a bright lamp, so dazzling that it made it hard for others to keep their eyes open. Her beautiful eyes flashed with charm, bewitching the generals below, making them feel that the palace maids in their arms, no matter how beautiful, paled in comparison to Princess Xiangxiang.
But these generals were sensible people, knowing that Princess Xiangxiang was Wang Xiaoqiang's woman, and naturally did not harbor any thoughts, nor did they dare to look at Princess Xiangxiang disrespectfully, just quietly sniffing, inhaling the faint fragrance coming from her, sighing secretly, "Ah, to have such a woman in this life, I would have no regrets!"
Princess Xiangxiang extended her slender white hand, personally pouring wine for Wang Xiaoqiang, her beautiful eyes full of gentle smiles. Wang Xiaoqiang drank the fine wine, but it wasn't the wine that intoxicated him; it was the aroma from Princess Xiangxiang that left him drunk,
Wang Xiaoqiang hooked an arm around Princess Xiangxiang's delicate jade neck and kissed her pretty face, causing her to shyly bury her blushing face in Wang Xiaoqiang's arms and murmur, making the onlooking generals envious. They swallowed hard in secret.
Wang Xiaoqiang didn't want his subordinates to envy him, so after a while of eating and drinking, when satisfied, he embraced Princess Xiangxiang and headed toward a prepared bedchamber.
Just after stepping out of the Jade Banquet Hall, a woman dressed in white blocked their way. This woman had long black hair cascading down to her waist, her white dress flowed like a celestial being from the Nine Heavens, seemingly untouched by the mortal world.
Wang Xiaoqiang was stunned, and as he scanned her with his Divine Sense, he was greatly shocked. This woman was surrounded by an aura, not Elephant Qi, nor Dragon Qi, but an existence even higher than Dragon Qi.
This Qi is called "Immortal Qi."
The Immortal King condenses Qi into shape, and the Immortal Emperor transforms the shape into essence, which is a clear sign of entering the Immortal Emperor Realm.
"Wang Xiaoqiang, upon seeing Supreme Fairy Zixia, do you not kneel?" a voice said, as the Yan King stepped out of the shadows, shouting coldly at Wang Xiaoqiang.
Previously, he was fawning over Wang Xiaoqiang, but now, before Supreme Fairy Zixia, he glared at Wang Xiaoqiang with a ferocious look. (To be continued.
