Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 351: Chapter 159: Zhao Feng’s Excitement (Part 2)

”Distinguished guests and family, please feel free to enjoy yourselves,” Wang Jian announced loudly as he stood up. ”Let the wedding ceremony begin! Newlyweds, please step forward.”

At that moment, the housekeeper shouted from the side.

Wang Ben was seen slowly walking over, hand in hand with Princess Liuyang.

”First, bow to Heaven and Earth,” the housekeeper yelled.

The new couple began their bows to Heaven and Earth.

”Second, bow to the elders.”

”Husband and wife, bow to each other.”

”Serve tea to the elders!” the housekeeper called out.

Wang Ben and his wife slowly approached, first serving tea to Ying Zheng, followed by Wang Jian and his wife.

After that, it was naturally time for drinking and feasting.

”Daddy, is this a wedding banquet?” Zhao Qi asked with an air of maturity beyond his years. ”It doesn’t seem fun.”

”Then what would you consider fun, Qi’er?” Zhao Feng asked with a smile.

”Lots and lots of food, and lots and lots of games,” Zhao Qi described with exaggeration.

”Hahaha,” Zhao Feng laughed heartily, then turned to his daughter. ”Ling’er, what do you think?”

”As long as Daddy is here, it’s fun,” Zhao Ling said sensibly.

Hearing this, Zhao Feng was so moved he gave Zhao Ling a kiss on the cheek. ”My daughter is the best. Here’s a kiss,” he said happily.

Truly, only a daughter is a father’s greatest comfort.

Meanwhile, on the high seats, Ying Zheng was drinking. His gaze inevitably fell on Zhao Feng, who was laughing heartily with his two children.

”Wang Qing, are those your two grandchildren?” Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

”Yes,” Wang Jian nodded and immediately replied. ”They are my grandchildren. They may be little, but they are both very sensible.”

”Indeed, they look quite interesting.”

Ying Zheng’s gaze lingered. He felt an inexplicable familiarity and warm affection toward the appearance of Zhao Feng’s children.

”Zhao Feng might seem unreliable, but he’s actually very meticulous when it comes to the children. Nowadays, those two little ones are always clinging to him,” Wang Jian said with a contented smile.

Regarding this son-in-law, Wang Jian really couldn’t find any faults. He treated his daughter very well and held a high status with significant power. Truly, he was without flaw.

Ying Zheng nodded, then called out, ”Zhao Feng.”

Amidst the laughter and joyful conversation, Zhao Feng looked toward Ying Zheng in surprise. ”Great King, what is it?”

”What gift did you give for Wang Ben’s grand wedding?” Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

”That is a secret. The Great King should ask my brother-in-law,” Zhao Feng replied with a smile.

”What did you give that requires such secrecy? I am quite curious now,” Ying Zheng said, his interest piqued.

”Ben’er,” Wang Jian said with a proud smile, ”since the Great King is curious, you might as well show it to him.”

”Since the Great King wishes to see it, I will not hide it any longer. The gift from my brother-in-law is indeed a rare treasure,” Wang Ben said with a smile, waving his hand.

A nearby maid brought over a box. Upon opening it, one could see a piece shimmering with a faint white glow, like jade, but its light was even brighter.

”What is this? A night-luminescent pearl?” Ying Zheng asked in surprise.

”My brother-in-law called it a Spirit Stone. Carrying it on your person can ward off all diseases, and it can also be used like a night-luminescent pearl,” Wang Ben explained with a smile.

Ying Zheng picked up a piece and immediately felt a warmth spread through his palm. ”This Spirit Stone is truly extraordinary. It does bear some resemblance to the He Shi Jade,” Ying Zheng praised.

Could the legendary He Shi Jade also be a Spirit Stone? The thought immediately struck Zhao Feng upon hearing Ying Zheng’s words. The He Shi Jade was proclaimed as the finest jade under heaven and, as far as Zhao Feng knew, was the material used to create the Imperial Jade Seal. *Commissioned by Heaven, may it lead to longevity and eternal prosperity.* Those words truly left an indelible mark on countless people in later generations!

”Keep it safe,” Ying Zheng said with a smile, placing the Spirit Stone back into the box. ”Your brother-in-law must have paid a significant price to acquire it.”

”I understand,” Wang Ben said, smiling.

”Let the wedding banquet continue,” Ying Zheng said with a wave of his hand and a smile.

Zhao Feng took his seat once more. This King of Qin is really interesting, actually asking me what gift I brought, he thought, feeling a bit speechless. Wait a moment. It seems I still haven’t claimed the rewards for my promotion to Senior General and the two rank advancements.

Zhao Feng suddenly recalled. Ever since he arrived in Xianyang, he had spent the first day drinking with the King of Qin and then went home to be with his wife, making him forget all about his promotion rewards. This time, they would certainly not be meager. A promotion to Senior General, along with two advancements in noble rank.

Claim the promotion rewards, he immediately commanded in his mind.

”Congratulations, Host, for being promoted to Protector-General. Reward: one Second Order Treasure Chest.”

”Congratulations, Host, for advancing two noble ranks. Reward: two Second Order Treasure Chests,” the panel indicated.

As expected, the higher the level, the higher the order of the treasure chests. Second Order Treasure Chests... I hope I get something good.

With anticipation, Zhao Feng commanded, ”Open all treasure chests.”

”Opening a Second Order Treasure Chest.”

”Obtained Earth Rank Martial Technique [Reversal of Eight Desolations].”

”Obtained [Mid-Tier Spirit Stones x500].”

”Obtained [Third Order Alchemist Inheritance],” the panel indicated.

When he saw the first item, the Earth Rank Martial Technique, Zhao Feng was not particularly stirred, though he was pleasantly surprised. He remained calm when he saw the second treasure as well. But upon seeing the third, Zhao Feng could no longer contain himself.

An Alchemist Inheritance, and it’s Third Order! This treasure chest was a true jackpot. This is excellent!

Excitement showed on Zhao Feng’s face. The Alchemists, or so-called Fangshi, of this era are, for the most part, frauds. At least ninety-nine percent of them are, and the so-called pills they refine are nothing but poison. As for the remaining one-tenth of a percent, I reckon they might have some real skill, but surely not to this extent.
