Chapter 100 Forced Marriage
Watching the ice snake's movements, Jiang Nan couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Won't it keep wanting to drink your blood forever?"
"Probably not, it also eats spiritual herbs and pills."
After taming the ice snake as a spirit pet, Jiang Ning mentioned that it had eaten most of the pills and spirit herbs in his space.
Jiang Nan clicked her tongue in amazement after hearing this: "It seems to cost even more money than Xiaobai."
Because Xiao Bai usually eats a lot and wants to eat well, Jiang Nan categorized the two of them together.
This remark immediately offended the two spirit pets. Little White was recovering its spiritual power in the space and didn't bother with him, but the ice snake was a little unhappy. It circled around the three of them and saw a scar on Ye Lan's neck. It went over and licked it, and the scar instantly healed completely, turning back into smooth skin.
This phenomenon surprised Jiang Ning and his companions. Although they had already guessed that it was the cause of the healing of Jiang Ning's hand injury, seeing it with their own eyes was still quite amazing.
Jiang Nan also had some wounds on his body, and he was waiting for the ice snake to lick him a couple of times, but the ice snake only glanced at him twice and then turned its body away, looking very disgusted with him.
Jiang Nan was furious. "No way, it's holding a grudge like that!"
Jiang Ning and Ye Lan both found it a bit funny. Ye Lan advised him, "Alright, if you say another word, it won't help you next time you need it."
“That makes sense.” Thinking of this, Jiang Nan felt he should make amends, so he took out some low-grade spiritual herbs that he had left in his space and fed them to the snake. “Brother snake, if you eat these spiritual herbs, will you forgive me? I will never say anything to you again.”
The ice serpent didn't mind the low grade of the spiritual herb and ate it from Jiang Nan's hand, but it didn't heal Jiang Nan's injuries.
Jiang Nan didn't mind. He could recover from such a minor injury with some cultivation. As long as it could help him next time he needed it, that was enough.
Seeing his actions, Jiang Ning remembered that he still had half a bottle of Fire Dew in his space. He took out the half bottle, took a sip himself, and gave the rest to the ice snake, which made the ice snake happily rub its head against his hand.
Jiang Nan, standing nearby, was somewhat envious. He also wanted to drink the Fire Dew. Not only could the Fire Dew replenish spiritual energy, but it also tasted sweet and sour, just like yogurt, as Ye Lan put it. Although Jiang Nan didn't know what yogurt was.
Thinking of this, Jiang Nan couldn't help but look at Ye Lan. Ye Lan was taken aback, and inexplicably understood what he meant. He could only take out the remaining Fire Dew from his spatial storage.
"Just a small sip."
Ye Lan couldn't help but be stingy at this point. Fire Dew is rare, and it only has the effect of clearing the meridians the first time you drink it. He only drank a third of it last time, and he wanted to give the rest to Xiaobai.
But now Jiang Nan's hints were too obvious. Since he needed to recover his spiritual power anyway, he divided the remaining Fire Dew into three portions: one for himself, one for Jiang Nan, and one for Xiao Bai.
After drinking the Fire Dew, their spiritual energy was mostly replenished. The three of them then sat in the Heavenly Prison to cultivate, waiting for their spiritual energy and physical strength to fully recover.
Ye Lan planned to go out and find a safe place before using the Immortal Herb to revive Da Bai. Reviving Da Bai would require some procedures, and it wasn't appropriate to do it here now.
The princess didn't take their belongings or tie them up; after all, she'd be finding a place to cultivate and heal anyway, so it was the same here.
Moreover, no one will disturb us here now, making it seem safer. However, the spiritual energy here seems a bit low, unlike at the hot spring. Ye Lan felt it was a bit of a pity; if only Jiang Nan hadn't been so sarcastic.
But things weren't as peaceful outside as they were inside.
Inside the royal chambers of Yunxia Kingdom, the king had just finished throwing a huge tantrum, even smashing two cups, all because a neighboring country had sent someone to urge Yunzhi to go on a marriage alliance.
Yun Zhi is the young woman who just threw Ye Lan and the others into the Heavenly Prison. The King of Yunxia Kingdom is Yun Zhi's elder brother, named Yun Yan. Yun Yan has just reached the Nascent Soul stage and has only been on the throne for a few years.
Yun Zhi's brothers were gathered in the palace. Yun Zhi's second brother, Yun Wei, said angrily, "These people from Beiyu Kingdom are simply too much. We refused last time, but this time they actually sent betrothal gifts directly."
Last time, when the people from Beiyu Kingdom came to ask for Yunzhi's hand in marriage, they declined on the grounds that Yunzhi was already engaged. But this time, those people have come again.
These people actually said that they hadn't seen Princess Yunzhi get married, and that she could still break off the engagement and marry their prince from Beiyu Kingdom. They even said that if all else failed, Princess Yunxi could come instead.
Heaven knows, Yunxi cultivates the ruthless path; if she were forced to marry someone, she would simply stab that person with a sword.
Moreover, the things they brought were far too meager to be called a bride price. They were just a few bottles of pills and a few boxes of high-grade spirit stones. The people of Beiyu Kingdom wanted to take away Yun Zhi, the princess of Yunxia Kingdom, with such meager gifts, without even a proper wedding ceremony. That's why Yun Yan got so angry.
Yun Yan sneered: "Do you think they still see our Yunxia Kingdom as it was before? They're just taking advantage of their higher cultivation levels to deliberately pick a fight."
"Brother Wang, you can't just let Yunzhi jump into the fire just to appease their anger, can you?"
Everyone else understood this principle, and Yunwei was really afraid that her older brother would force their younger sister to marry into the family in order to avoid starting a war, which would be too unfair.
Their fourth brother, Yunshan, chimed in, "That Beiyu Kingdom is a real pit of fire. Big brother, you can't say that. You know what those barbarians are like."
"Am I that kind of person? I kept refusing because I didn't want to, but I didn't expect them to be so shameless."
Yun Yan was still very angry. He thought that the reason he had given last time was clear enough, but who knew that they would still not give up. "But we also need to have a reason, so that they will completely lose their reason to start a war."
Yun Shan said nonchalantly, "Let's just have a fight."
The younger Yun Cheng also nodded.
Hearing this, Yun Yan, who had just calmed down, couldn't help but get angry again. He glared at Yun Shan and Yun Cheng: "What are you fighting for? They have experts at the Nascent Soul stage now. Do you know how many civilians we will die if this starts?"
This is what Yun Yan is most worried about. In the past, their Yunxia Kingdom had the support of their father and mother, so the people of Beiyu Kingdom did not dare to go too far. The two neighboring countries had always kept to themselves.
Now, less than five years after the passing of their father and mother, the Northern Island Kingdom has gone too far, daring to come up and threaten the Cloud Xia Kingdom. This is clearly because they covet the resources of the Cloud Xia Kingdom.
The two countries originally had roughly equal military strength, but now the other side has a Nascent Soul stage expert while they do not. One Nascent Soul stage expert is enough to cause them trouble, let alone adding others.
Yunwei was also a little angry and asked her older brother directly, "Then what do you suggest we do?"
Yun Zhi is so much younger than him, and he has always doted on her like a daughter. He would never watch her jump into this fire pit.
Yun Yan didn't answer his question, but asked something else: "Third brother? Where did he go again?"
Yun Shan: "Third Brother went to find someone."
"At a time like this, who else would he go to?"
Yun Cheng said, "I went to find my third sister-in-law."
"They have a really good relationship; they can't be apart from each other for even a moment."
If their third sister-in-law heard this, she would definitely think to herself: "What a load of rubbish!"
