Chapter 584 - 381: The Shining Hero

"Let go of me!"

Princess Ao Ling struggled out of Lin Lang’s embrace, her face so red it seemed like it might bleed!

Yet she stubbornly declared:

"This doesn’t count, let’s go again!"

Elder Ao Ye of the Flood Dragon Race hurriedly stopped her and said:

"Ling’er, accept your loss graciously!"

Ao Ling’s face flushed with shame as she exclaimed:

"That was an accident!"

But Ao Ye replied:

"This is fate’s will!"

Everyone was speechless for a moment!

In order to curry favor with Lin Lang, the Flood Dragon Race really put their pride aside!

At this moment, Zhi Xi also said:

"Alright, alright! Ao Ling, there’s no way you can beat Lin Lang. No matter how many times you try, it will be the same, just accept it!"

Princess Ao Ling stomped her foot in frustration, looking at Lin Lang and said:

"Hey! What’s with that look! You don’t actually think I lost on purpose because I like you, right?"

Lin Lang remained calm:

"I never said that."

Ao Ling retorted:

"That’s definitely what you’re thinking! Come on! Let’s go again!"

But Lin Lang had already lost interest, waving his hand and said:

"No more."

Seeing this!

Zhi Xi’s father, King Canglan of the Merfolk Race, also stood up and addressed everyone:

"Ladies and gentlemen! The reason for inviting everyone here today is to enhance the friendship between the Aquatic Races! Let’s not waste time on these little matters and spoil the fun!"

This remark implicitly pointed out to Ao Ling—

We have more important matters, so don’t create a scene here!

Everyone agreed, raising their cups and saying:

"The King is right!"

Prince Ao Yuan of the Flood Dragon Race then smirked and winked at Ao Ling:

"Ling’er, stop making a fuss!"

Ao Ye said:

"Ling’er, this is the Flood Dragon Race’s arrangement! Stop making a fuss!"

Seeing everyone deliberately ignoring her!

As if she really was a clown seeking attention!

Especially since Elder Ao Ye, who always listened to her, was now scolding her!

Ao Ling suddenly felt very wronged!

But she kept quiet nonetheless.

...

Ao Ye raised his cup towards Lin Lang and said:

"Lord Lin Lang, from now on, our Flood Dragon Race will faithfully follow you!"

The rest also raised their cups to congratulate:

"Congratulations Lord Lin Lang on finding another soulmate!"

"Princess Ao Ling is indeed a perfect match for Lord Lin Lang!"

"May Lord Lin Lang and Princess Ao Ling be together forever!"

Some sly ones also didn’t forget to flatter the Merfolk Race!

After all, from now on, the Merfolk Race was recognized as the overlord of the Aquatic Race!

So they especially extended their congratulations:

"May Lord Lin Lang and both Princess Ao Ling and Princess Zhi Xi be together forever!"

Lin Lang casually raised his cup in response.

It seemed he didn’t pay much mind to this matter.

It must be said, the drinks prepared by the Aquatic Race are much better than those at the Beast Taming Village!

But Lin Lang still didn’t get drunk.

...

Princess Ao Ling sat in her seat, puffed up with anger!

She clearly wanted a fair fight with Lin Lang to prove her strength!

But unexpectedly!

An unimaginable accident turned the situation into this—

She didn’t want to marry Lin Lang!

But if she didn’t marry, everyone would think she’s going back on her word, being untrustworthy, which would severely damage the Flood Dragon Race’s reputation!

But if she obediently married Lin Lang!

People might think she liked Lin Lang all along, and that’s why she plotted to become his woman!

"How irritating!"

Ao Ling felt stuffy in her heart!

"How could I possibly like Lin Lang?"

"Even though he’s powerful, he has no gentlemanly manners!"

"And he’s so fickle!"

"How could I possibly like him?"

But when she sneakily observed Lin Lang with her eyes!

She found——

At this moment, Lin Lang was at the center of the banquet, as if naturally spotlighted, with everyone’s attention completely on him!

And facing the flattery of those around him!

Lin Lang remained indifferent, unruffled, like a calm lake!

"That aura of looking down on the world is actually quite imposing..."

Even though Ao Ling disliked Lin Lang, she couldn’t help but admit in her heart!

Lin Lang was indeed an exceptionally dazzling character!

However.

This Lin Lang was too rude!

He didn’t pay attention to her at all!

Not even willing to cast a glance her way?

"How irritating!"
