Chapter 257 Fu Rongjun is joking
In the spiritual world, flowers are blooming and colorful ribbons are flying, creating a festive and peaceful scene.
Ling Zun was dressed in glittering and gorgeous clothes, standing at the entrance of the banquet hall, her face filled with unspeakable joy. She gently waved her sleeves, and it seemed that even the air was dancing for joy.
"Lord Xingzhi, His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, Lord Furong, all the immortals, please come in!" Ling Zun's voice was gentle and powerful. She personally led the guests into the banquet hall, and every step she took seemed so solemn and elegant.
When he arrived in front of Xingzhi Shenjun, Lingzun stopped, his eyes full of sincerity and expectation:
"Lord God, it is a great honor for the spirit world to have you here today. I specially prepared this banquet, firstly to express my gratitude to you all, and secondly, I have an unwelcome request."
At this point, she turned slightly and looked gently at the graceful Shen Xing standing beside her.
"This is Shen Xing, the best of the younger generation in my spiritual world. I know that the heaven is selecting permanent generals, so I dare to recommend him to the God. I hope that the God can give Shen Xing a chance and reconsider the candidate."
Upon hearing this, Lord Xingzhi's eyes moved between Shen Xing and Ling Zun and he nodded slightly, showing his respect and consideration.
At this time, Fu Rongjun took a step forward, with a firm tone in his voice:
"God, regarding the engagement between Shen Li and me, I dare to ask you to reconsider. What Shen Li wants in her heart is not the high position in heaven, but to be with her family and friends. Please sympathize with her feelings and cancel this engagement. Besides, I don't want to, I'm still young and not suitable for marriage."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Li knelt on the ground, her eyes slightly red, but her voice was extremely firm:
"God, what Fu Rongjun said is true. We are not suitable. Although I, Shen Li, have been favored by you, my heart only wants to spend time with my family and protect this land that I love. Please help us put this engagement on hold for now and make a decision after the martial arts competition."
Lord Xingzhi looked at the scene before him, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
He knew the importance of the engagement, but he also understood people's wishes. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke in a steady and powerful voice:
"Okay, I promise you. The wedding will be postponed for now. We will discuss this matter after the martial arts competition is successfully concluded."
As soon as these words were spoken, Ling Zun and Shen Li immediately showed relieved smiles on their faces, and Fu Rongjun also cast a grateful look towards Xingzhi Shenjun.
In the banquet hall, applause and cheers mixed together, celebrating this decision and adding more anticipation and enthusiasm for the upcoming martial arts competition.
Seeing that the atmosphere of the banquet was getting lively, Shen Xing stood up gracefully on the pretext of making a toast, raised a glass of fine wine in his hand, faced the God of Xingzhi and the Emperor of Heaven, with a sincere smile on his face.
Shen Xing looked at Xingzhi Shenjun and Tiandi sincerely and said:
"On this beautiful day, I, Shen Xing, would like to use this glass of fine wine to express my deepest respect to Lord Xingzhi. Lord Xingzhi is wise and intelligent, leading the immortals in the heavens, making the heavens prosperous and admired by all the people. Every decision you make is like the guidance of the stars, illuminating our way forward."
Then, he turned to the Emperor of Heaven, his tone full of gratitude: "At the same time, I would like to express my highest gratitude to His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven. Your Majesty is as kind and caring as a father. You care not only about the heavens, but also about the six realms. Your kindness and wisdom are a beacon in the hearts of all of us."
Shen Xing paused for a moment, his eyes flickering with a desire for peace:
"Today, the spirit world and the heavenly world gather together, which is a blessing for both worlds. I know that peace is hard-won and it requires the cherishment and efforts of each of us. Here, I sincerely hope that the heavenly world and the spirit world can continue to work hand in hand, treat each other with sincerity, and jointly protect this hard-won peace and tranquility."
Hearing this, Xingzhi Shenjun smiled and nodded slightly to show his approval. The Emperor of Heaven stroked his beard, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, and was obviously very satisfied with Shen Xing's words.
The guests in the banquet hall also cast approving glances, adding a touch of warmth and harmony to the entire banquet.
After the toast, Shen Xing changed the subject, his tone more thoughtful:
"At this beautiful moment, I would like to make a bold suggestion. The heavenly world and the spiritual world have had an indissoluble bond since ancient times, and now they are working together to create peace. I believe that in addition to traditional ways of communication and cooperation, we should also explore new ways to deepen the connection between the two worlds. For example, through trade exchanges, we can promote economic prosperity and development of both sides. This will not only enhance mutual understanding and friendship between the people of the two worlds, but also inject new vitality into the future development of the two worlds."
As soon as these words were spoken, the banquet hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at them with curiosity and admiration.
Lord Xingzhi and the Emperor of Heaven looked at each other, with a hint of surprise and interest in their eyes.
The Emperor nodded slightly and praised: "Nephew Shen Xing, what you said is very reasonable. Trade exchanges are indeed a new chapter in the cooperation between the two worlds. After the martial arts conference is over, I will definitely discuss this matter with you in detail."
Shen Li was sitting not far away. When she heard Shen Xing's suggestion, her eyes flashed with pride and satisfaction, and she gave Shen Xing an appreciative glance.
Shen Xing returned to his seat and gained the favor of many fairies from heaven and ladies from the spirit world during the banquet.
Fu Rongjun sat next to Shen Xing, looked at Shen Xing meaningfully, then looked at Shen Li, and said jokingly:
"Oh, you two siblings are so compatible. Shen Li scared me to death, I haven't dared to look at her until now. But then again, I heard that you are not siblings, and you have no blood relationship. In this case, you two are so compatible, why don't you just ask Xingzhi God to marry Shen Li. My weak body can't stand her savagery."
When Shen Xing heard this, a blush flashed across her face, and she waved her hand and smiled:
"Mr. Fu Rong, you are joking. How can Shen Li be barbaric? She is clearly a gentle and lovely woman. Besides, marriage is not a joke. It requires mutual love." After saying that, he looked at Shen Li, and they smiled at each other. The tacit understanding that did not require words flowed quietly in the banquet hall.
Fu Rongjun glanced at Shen Xing with dissatisfaction and murmured,
"You are really good at saying nice things. She is gentle? How can she be gentle? Is it her gun or her fist that is gentle? Tell me, I dare not marry her. If the Lord of Gods insists that I marry her, I can only run away from home and escape the marriage!"
Fu Rongjun saw that the atmosphere at the banquet was harmonious, but he was still dissatisfied with the fact that "God of Xingzhi had granted him and Shen Li a marriage", so he could not help but mutter in a low voice. Although his voice was not loud, it was loud enough for people nearby to hear:
"This marriage is such a headache. Shen Li and I have nothing in common, but the Lord God has tied us together with just one word. Sigh, it's really..."
He shook his head as he spoke, his face full of helplessness and complaints.
However, Lord Xingzhi did not pay attention to Fu Rongjun's words at the moment. His attention was completely attracted by Lian Huishi, and his deep eyes fell on Lian Huishi from time to time, full of concern and appreciation.
Lian Huishi's every smile and every movement seemed to stir up ripples in his heart. He would occasionally talk to Lian Huishi quietly, asking about her recent situation, and his words revealed a rare tenderness and delicacy.
When the guests around saw this, some cast envious glances, while others discussed secretly and speculated about the relationship between Xingzhi Shenjun and Lian Huishi.
But no matter what, at this moment, the God of Movement seemed to have been outside the entire banquet. In his world, there was only Lian Huishi.
