1752 Early Plan 2
“Snow Territory cannot afford to descend into chaos,” Elder Man spoke with utmost seriousness. “Given the current state of affairs, with the gates of enchantment open and chaos prevailing, we must prevent any further disruptions within Snow Territory.”
Snow Territory operated under its own distinct set of rules and laws. While the King and the Head held significant power, in Snow Territory, the most revered figure was the Phoenix Girl, considered even more supreme than City Lord. City Lord would not gain full acceptance until marrying the Phoenix Girl.
Presently, Snow Territory faced divisions and challenges, putting City Lord in a less favorable position. The most favorable resolution would be to bring the Phoenix Girl back to Snow Territory, allowing City Lord to a.s.sume control and restore stability.
However, if this delicate plan went awry, Snow Territory would be thrust into a devastating internal conflict, potentially falling into the hands of others. Such a scenario would spell the end for Snow Territory.
The situation had grown increasingly dire, causing great anxiety among the Elder Men. Yet City Lord appeared strangely nonchalant, displaying no concern whatsoever.
Now, matters had taken a turn towards the absurd. Phoenix Girl had married the King of the Saint Divine Land, ascending to the position of Queen. This turn of events left them questioning their next move.
But the Elder Men knew deep down that such a scenario would never come to pa.s.s
The Elder Men had been firm in their belief that it was imperative to bring the Phoenix Girl to Snow Territory on her wedding day, regardless of her own willingness. Their primary goal was to ensure that the people of Snow Territory saw the Phoenix Girl before attending to any other matters.
Observing the unease among the Elder Men, Ouyang Mingjing gestured calmly with his hands. “There is no need to be so anxious,”
“…”
“You saw the other night that the hidden venom inside Phoenix Girl’s body is breaking out. They are able to control it at this early stage, but soon, Phoenix Girl won’t be able to control that. By that time, she had no choice but to follow me to Snow Territory. Only the ice beds in Snow Territory would be able to suppress the venom.”
“…”
“By that time, we are going to kill two birds with one stone.”
“….”
“I can help her to detoxify, but the condition is that she has to marry me and help people from Snow Territory.” Ouyang Mingjing said to the Elder Man confidently.
The Elder Man of course knew about this plan. But their time was pressing and they had little time left. What he needed was to make sure everything went well. City Lord had a great plan, but waiting would be such a waste of time.
“City Lord.” The Elder Man was trying to convince him.
Ouyang Mingjing waved his hands, telling him not to talk.
He had to drop it.
Then he threw a side look at Longqing, asking her for help. Longqing did not move.
He had to drop it, finally.
Ouyang Mingjing told them to quit the room, and he needed time for himself.
These days…
He himself was also in a very complicated mood.
He had been firmly certain about marrying Phoenix Girl, because she was going to be his wife for the whole town.
But this feeling was fading away.
He knew clearly that he must marry Phoenix Girl, because Snow Territory needed someone like this. But he also had another woman in his heart apart from Phoenix Girl.
It was a girl whom he did not want to kill at the moment.
He was waiting for one possibility.
He hoped that the possibility could make things become perfect.
