Chapter 1221: Strict Rules
Si Wen Bing didn’t look at the two priests . Instead, he deeply bowed to Ji Wu .
Standing on the city wall, Ji Wu’s outfit was luxurious, made with pure colorful silk . A golden dragon-skin belt was wrapped around his waist, with over ten glowing jade pendants tied on it . He was also wearing a black ice silk hairband, decorated with over ten thumb-sized gemstones . With his hands held behind his body, he stood on the city wall, resplendent with jewels . He seemed to be noble and powerful, just like a divine god . He looked even taller than he actually was .
What about Si Wen Bing ,who was bowing deeply to Ji Wu? As the leader of a flood-control troop, Si Wen Bing had been soaking in the water all the time, fighting against water-kind creatures . He hadn’t rested for many days . His coarse clothes were already ragged, even baring his shoulder and butt .
His thighs were bearing as well . Soaking in the water, his skin was badly pale . All fine hairs had fallen off from his skin, and not even a single fine hair was left on his legs .
His hair were messy like a broken, soaked bird nest . Added with his sallow, tired face, which was covered in water drops, he looked just like an old beggar who had been suffering to live . An indescribable miserableness could be sensed from every part of his body .
Compared with Ji Wu, who had a clean, glowing face, was wearing luxurious clothes, and even wearing a light perfume, Si Wen Bing looked just like a puddle of mud on the ground . Ji Wu looked so great, while Si Wen Bing looked not even like a human being .
Si Wen Bing was a high-level Divine Magus, but having struggled in the flood for all these days, ended up looking like this . It was not hard to imagine how miserable those Magus Kings, Senior Magi and the ones who hadn’t yet reached to the senior level in flood-control troops were .
He bowed deeply to Ji Wu . Si Wen Bing seemed to forget that as a distant nephew of his, Ji Wu, should be bowing to him instead, according to the traditional etiquette of the humankind .
"Lord Ji Wu, this flood had destroyed the homelands of countless human beings . They lost their homes, their families . The flood is rampant . Each day, our human beings will become weaker than the previous day . Look at these people behind me, for the flood-control mission, they…"
Ji Wu laughed out loud towards the sky . His thunderous laughter even shattered a descending, miles thick water stream . The water stream disintegrated in the air into human-head-sized water balls, falling down .
The Fei Water City was protected by the screen created by those lotuses in vats . Hundreds of meters away from the city, those water balls were evaporated by a soft layer of light . However, Si Wen Bing and his people weren’t protected at all . Countless water balls landed on Si Wen Bing’s head and back, making his messy hair even messier, and look like dirty water plants hanging on his head .
Si Wen Bing and the few warriors behind him were all soaked by the water . But Si Wen Bing remained bowing . The few warriors behind him angrily glanced at Ji Wu, then helplessly lowered their heads .
"The flood, I saw it!" said Ji Wu carelessly, "But my people aren’t harmed by it . See, people in my city are living a happy life . They have everything they need…Ruled by me, over ten-thousand towns and villages are just peaceful . No one is suffering from the flood . "
"You can’t control the flood, because you are weak and incapable!" Ji Wu continued scornfully, "Look at you . You are just like a bunch of jurassic beasts in the mud! I am even pissed by simply looking at you!"
