Nine Dragons Supreme God

However, Mo Sheng still underestimated Mo Yihan's temperament and determination.

Under normal circumstances, a marriage alliance with the royal family would be entirely beneficial to any family. However, the situation of the Mo family was completely different, which is why no one in the Mo family, except for Mo Sheng, expressed any opinion.

"Hehe." Jun Ruyi's lips still held a faint smile: "Patriarch Mo, if marrying into the royal family makes you feel uncomfortable, Ruyi can petition the Empress to let Princess Jinling marry into the Mo family."

Generally speaking, if a princess of the royal family wants to marry into a prominent family in the country, the man usually marries into the princess's household. This is common knowledge in the world of mountains and seas.

However, there are a few exceptions in the history of the Azure Wing Kingdom.

Such exceptions are all the most dazzling talents in the country, and their future achievements will all reach the pinnacle of the world.

The fact that Jun Ruyi could say such a thing shows that in his heart, he already considered Mo Yihan to be on par with historically renowned figures.

If the royal family can truly make such a concession, then the extent to which they value Mo Yihan is evident.

If Mo Yihan still disagrees, then he would be rather ungrateful.

Moreover, they felt it was a great pity to miss such a great opportunity to rise to prominence.

"Who I, Mo Yihan, choose to marry is my own business, and I don't need anyone else to decide for me." This time, Mo Yihan didn't even glance at Jun Ruyi again, and spoke indifferently.

Upon hearing this, even the usually composed and experienced Jun Ruyi couldn't help but furrow her brows slightly: "Patriarch Mo, do you not think highly of Princess Jinling?"

"We haven't even met, so how can you say you don't like me? Besides, even if we had met, so what? Disagreement is disagreement. Please inform the Empress that I, Mo Yihan, am not worthy of this marriage." Mo Yihan said calmly, his expression unchanged.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, being able to marry Princess Jinling as a beloved wife must be an incredible stroke of good fortune, something one has earned through eight lifetimes of good deeds, and one must certainly feel immensely honored.

In Mo Yihan's view, let alone a princess from a small country, even a real fairy would probably not give her a second glance.

Moreover, as Mo Yihan said, why should the mighty Emperor Lingtian need others to make decisions for him?

"Patriarch Mo, Ruyi hopes you will reconsider. After all, the Empress has already decided to announce it to the world. Even if Ruyi uses the Peak Spirit Bird to send a message, it may be too late."

Jun Ruyi spoke up to advise, "The Empress, who sits on the throne, is the supreme ruler of the Cangyi Kingdom. Her word is law, and her word is the law of the world."

A ruler's word is his bond; how can one take back what has been said?

It wasn't that Jun Ruyi was deliberately putting pressure on Mo Yihan; that's just the truth.

If the Empress publicly announces to the world that Princess Jinling and Mo Yihan are to be married, then Mo Yihan must marry Princess Jinling no matter what.

This involves the dignity and face of the royal family.

The Empress's decree of marriage is like an imperial edict; it is no child's play.

The Mo family disciples also understood this principle. Even though the family head was unwilling, the Mo family was like an ant in front of the royal family.

How can ants shake a giant elephant?

It can be said that Mo Yihan faced a major dilemma: if he disagreed, his life would be in danger; but disagreeing was not what he wanted.

This is the tragedy of the weak.

The weak often don't even have a choice.

Mo Yihan is actually a weakling who is not a weakling.

With his past life experience, it's only a matter of time before he tramples the entire Mountain and Sea Realm under his feet.

But it's too early to really confront the royal family.

Truly intelligent people usually choose to temporarily avoid confrontation and bide their time.

But how could the pride of the Great Emperor Lingtian be trampled upon by others?

However, none of the people present could understand this. They couldn't comprehend that if Mo Yihan obediently accepted the marriage, the benefits he would receive in the future would be unimaginable, resulting in a happy ending for everyone.

What's hard to understand is that Mo Yihan is so stubborn and unreasonable, insisting on refusing the marriage.

Some people are even thinking that if they were the ones choosing the prince consort, they probably wouldn't be able to think of any reason to refuse the marriage.

"but…"

Jun Ruyi's original intention was to befriend Mo Yihan, but she underestimated Mo Yihan's character. After thinking for a moment, she said, "However, it is not impossible to get the Empress to retract her order."

"The Empress has decreed that the wedding will take place three months from now, and one month from now, the ancient tomb will be opened. If anyone can uncover the greatest secret within the tomb, they will not only receive a great reward from the Empress, but also a promise from her."

This is one possible solution.

However, anyone from the Azure Wing Kingdom would know something about the ancient tomb ruins, more or less.

The royal family discovered the ancient tomb ruins three hundred years ago. During those three hundred years, every three years, at the time of the alternation of the sun and moon, the entrance to the ancient tomb would be opened.

On this day, the royal family would send out countless powerful individuals to explore the ancient tomb in order to gain benefits from it.

For three hundred years, the royal family has sent countless powerful individuals to explore and study the ancient tomb, but each time less than one-tenth of them have survived, and the clues obtained are few and far between, let alone the greatest secret of the ancient tomb.

Over the past three hundred years, countless outstanding talents have fallen.

Therefore, in everyone's eyes, Jun Ruyi's proposed solution was not a solution at all.

Not only would it likely cost him his life, it was practically impossible to accomplish!

"it is good."

To everyone's surprise, Mo Yihan nodded slightly in agreement, which immediately caused the expressions of the Mo family disciples to change drastically.

"Master, exploring ancient tombs is fraught with peril, let alone obtaining crucial information from them. Please reconsider!"

Su Lie said anxiously, knowing that the patriarch was quite capable and having great confidence in him.

But now, Mo Yihan is a pivotal figure in the Mo family, and no one can do without him.

If anything goes wrong, the Mo family cannot afford such a loss.

"Third Elder, I'm only interested in that ancient tomb," Mo Yihan said calmly to Mo Lie.

Since ancient tombs are called ancient tombs, the people buried there must be people from a very long time ago.

Perhaps they were people from ten thousand years ago.

In the Mo family's historical records, there are very few accounts of that earth-shattering battle ten thousand years ago, and there is even suspicion that they distort history.

Among Mo Yihan's many disciples back then, there were quite a few absolutely loyal ones and survivors.

Upon learning that the Mo family had moved to the Mountain and Sea Realm, he would surely secretly rush there to protect the last remaining bloodline of the Mo family.

However, judging from the current situation, most of those loyal disciples have already met with terrible fates.
