Chapter 489: 489
Although they hadn't seen how the Hero Palace had been taken down, they saw how the most sacred place of the Dragon Field had changed hands .
The Murongs, who had once been guests here, became the hosts . They behaved like they were the masters of everyone's fate .
Many of those who had stayed silent regretted it .
The Murongs and the Sacred Institute weren't the same . At least the latter wouldn't force others to marry their daughters off in this way .
Yin Shuang, one of the Four Beauties, had won numerous people's hearts . They felt unhappy at the thought that she would marry Murong Long under such pressure .
Murong Long had been ranked in the top three of the Dragon Rise List and become a Venerable at such a young age . He could have been described as man of the hour .
But that was when there had been no comparisons . Although Jiang Chen wasn't a Venerable yet, compared to him, Murong Long wasn't a threat .
Yin Shuang was reluctant to marry Murong Long, but she knew what kind of crisis the bank was facing .
"I agree . We'll get engaged first and get married in a year," said Yin Shuang .
Murong Xiong smiled . It was difficult to tell whether that was a yes or no .
"You want to wait until Jiang Chen comes back, don't you?" Murong Long finally figured out a way to express himself clearly without teeth, although he sounded weird, but he didn't feel like it was weird himself . He said in anger, "Let me tell you . Even if Jiang Chen comes back in a year, I'll kill him all the same . "
"Just like earlier today?" Yin Shuang asked . Her pretty eyes were full of disdain .
Murong Long didn't reply, only breathed a little bit harder . There was hatred in his eyes .
"Enough," Murong Xiong interrupted their quarrel . He said calmly, "Miss Yin, in fact, your grandpa, the real owner of the Bank of Sacred City, has agreed to the marriage . "
The three family members of the Yins were all shocked, as were the others .
Was the Bank of the Sacred City involved in this affair, too?
Yin Shuang's fair face was full of desperation . She believed that Jiang Chen would return to the Dragon Field to kill these people, but time waits for no one . What kind of situation would she be in by then?
In the worst case scenario, I'll just die .
Closing her fists tightly, Yin Shuang dug her fingernails into her palms . Her pained expression became more and more resolute .
"Lord of the Murongs, could you make the royal map public now?"
None of the people present had forgotten about Ning Haotian's promise .
They gave Crimson Moon a sharp look . She felt like her clothes would be melted by these looks .
"There's no hurry . "
Fortunately, Murong Xiong wasn't going to take her clothes off to show the royal map .
"The remaining supporters of the Hero Palace have escaped . The rebel forces, formed mainly by the Gaos, hasn't been eliminated . If we go treasure-seeking now, won't things go wrong quickly?"
In this way, the crowd knew he wouldn't show the royal map to them that easily .
"You were just accusing the Hero Palace of being nosy and taking possession of the royal map . Now you're doing the same," Han Siming murmured to himself . Gazing at the iron Dragon Rebel Army, he raised his chin .
Jiang Chen, you have to come back as soon as possible .
Then he glanced at Crimson Moon and Yin Shuang .
No matter what relationship there was between them and Jiang Chen, he assumed the latter wouldn't allow them to end up how people had imagined .
The radical change that had happened in the Sacred City ran through the whole Dragon Field in a day .
If the folks of the Dragon Field had been shocked by the news that Jiang Chen had topped the Dragon Rise List, they were panic-stricken at that moment .
Both the Hero Palace and the Sacred Institute were symbols of the Dragon Field . They were like the sun and the moon—although too high to reach, their existence was soothing .
However, by then, those big groups were speaking with one voice . In addition, following the lead of The Sacred Daily, which hadn't closed down yet, they were slandering the Hero Palace and Jiang Chen's names .
