1167 You Grotto-Heaven Masters Are Too Disappointing (1)

“Everyone, thank you for accompanying me on this trip.”

Zhou Shu and the others arrived at the border of Great Xia unhurriedly.

“Your Highness, you’re too polite. This is what we should do.” Yang Hong and the others smiled.

“It’s our honor,” Yao Buqi said with a smile. “King Zhou, you’re proposing marriage. How can we not come?”

He said regretfully, “Unfortunately, it’s happening so suddenly that I don’t have time to prepare a congratulatory gift.

“When you get married, I will definitely prepare a big enough congratulatory gift for you and the princess!”

Yao Buqi was constantly thinking of expressing his loyalty.

On the other hand, the Qingqiu King had a cold expression as she looked askance at Zhou Shu. “Zhou Shu, if you dare to betray my sister, even if I can’t defeat you, I definitely won’t let you off.”

She knew very well how her sister, Bai Qianqian, felt about Zhou Shu.

“I will give her an explanation,” Zhou Shu said seriously.

When Zhou Shu was still a Forging Apprentice, his dream was to be an idle rich man, marry a beautiful wife, and have a few children. His life would be good.

Later, he met several women.

Be it Yin Wuyou, Lu Wenshuang, or Bai Qianqian, he couldn’t bear to give up any one of them, nor would he.

In any case, it was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines in this world. Why did he have to stick to the norms of his previous life?

He wouldn’t give up on any of these three women. He would marry them all!

Yin Wuyou, Lu Wenshuang, and Bai Qianqian had waited for him for so many years. Now that he was back, he naturally had to give them a status.

But now that Bai Qianqian’s whereabouts were unknown, it wasn’t the time to marry the two women.

Zhou Shu came to Great Xia this time because he wanted to propose marriage to Emperor Yuan Feng and Lu Wenshuang’s family. He would settle their status first, and then when Bai Qianqian came back, he would marry them all together.

Zhou Shu didn’t want to let down any of the three women. He definitely wouldn’t favor one over another.

“Your Highness, people are coming to welcome you,” Yang Hong said.

In front, a group of Great Xia troops welcomed them.

“Huh, why is the general leading the army so unfamiliar?” Mi Ziwen said.

He led the Great Wei army and was from Great Xia in the past. He was very familiar with Great Xia’s famous generals.

“I don’t know him either.” Yin Wuyou shook her head.

She was also a little puzzled. Logically speaking, shouldn’t her father send someone of sufficient status to welcome them?

All things aside, Zhou Shu was still a conferred king of Great Xia.

“Your Highness, something is wrong,” Mi Ziwen said grimly.

“There’s no need to be nervous.” Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head. “The others might just not have the time. In such a big nation, there are countless complicated affairs. It’s impossible for them to let go of other important matters just to welcome us.”

“Greetings, King, Your Highness, and everyone!” The general had already dismounted from his horse from afar and knelt on one knee.

“No need for formalities,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “Did His Majesty send you?”

“Yes.” The general raised his voice. “Originally, His Majesty wanted to send Lord Zhang Fuzhi over. But because of an emergency in the capital, none of them could spare the time, so I was sent here.”

“Who are you? What happened in the capital?” Yin Wuyou asked, her eyes filled with worry.

The general replied, “I am the commander of the third battalion of the Huben Troops. Perhaps Your Highness didn’t notice me before. It’s because of the turmoil in the Demon Realm that the diplomatic missions of the various nations and the Grotto-Heavens have gathered in the capital to discuss important matters…”

His reason was flawless.

“Alright, lead the way,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. With everyone’s cultivation, it was actually faster to fly.

But to show his sincerity, he decided to walk there.

It wasn’t much of a journey anyway.

Mi Ziwen wanted to say something else, but on second thought, there was no need for them to be afraid of anything.

Therefore, he stopped thinking about it.

…

“Ancestor, they’ve already entered the country and are heading toward the capital. They’ll reach the capital in seven days at most.”

The disciples of the Bao Guang Grotto-Heaven kept sending news to Great Xia’s imperial palace.

Shang Qiuzi’s face was slightly excited. He seemed to have already seen the scene of Zhou Shu being tortured to death by him. That bastard embarrassed me. If I don’t kill him, I will be too embarrassed to go out and roam the world again!

“Are they suspicious?” Shang Qiuzi asked solemnly.

The civil and military officials of Great Xia were all unwilling to cooperate.

In order to prevent them from sending a message to Zhou Shu, he could only lock up the civil and military officials and send his people to welcome them.

But there was an obvious fault. The princess of Great Xia didn’t know his people. This could easily expose him.

But there were countless generals in Great Xia’s army, and Yin Wuyou might not know all of them. As long as they did it flawlessly, it wasn’t impossible to fool them.

Moreover, even if there were flaws, they would just rush to the capital faster.

“I don’t think they were suspicious,” a disciple said. “On the surface, everything looks normal.”

Shang Qiuzi nodded. “Continue to follow up. If there are any problems, report immediately!”

The disciple nodded and quickly left.

Over the next few days, the same scene kept happening in Great Xia’s imperial palace.
