C1260 A fierce counterattack from the Gatling Ape

In front of Prince Consort's residence!

After seeing the middle-aged eunuch pass the gift slip to an official of the Ministry of Rites, Yuan Zu said in a provocative tone as he looked at the Arm Clearing Ape with a complacent expression.

"Brother Ape, since we are both seniors of the Prince Consort, and are also the top experts of the Profound Sky Continent, if the treasures that are prepared to congratulate the wedding are too shabby, I'm afraid that we won't even have the face to continue staying in the mansion to attend the wedding."

As one of the four great spirit monkeys that had inherited the ancient times, an Arm Connecting Ape with the direct bloodline of an Arm Divine Ape, its true intelligence and emotional intelligence was in no way inferior to an old fox.

Yuan Zu's method of temporarily changing the protocol could be deceived by others, but it could not be deceived by the Connecting Ape who was extremely close to the Martial Emperor. Combined with the hostility it held towards him from the start, it immediately guessed out what Yuan Zu was thinking, or perhaps more accurately speaking, it was planning something.

As the true overlord of the billions of strange beasts in the Southern region, the prideful Back Connecting Ape was also a person who would not easily admit defeat.

Thus, when faced with Yuan Zu's provocation of using the wedding gift, its retaliation was very simple.

He walked up to the middle-aged eunuch and ordered with a low voice.

"Out of the way!"

Upon sensing the thick baleful aura that the Arm Clearing Ape did not emit, the middle-aged eunuch immediately took a few steps back with a pale face. Then, he looked at Yu Haoran with a panicked expression.

"I'm fine!" Yu Haoran smiled and comforted her.

"I wish you a happy marriage with the princess. I am the King of All Beasts of the Southern region, the Armored Ape."

Even though its IQ and EQ were not inferior to the old fox, but the fact that it had too little knowledge in literature made it unable to speak any other ordinary words of blessings.

However, none of the guests present ridiculed it, even Yuan Zu who harbored strong hostility towards it.

Knowing that it was unable to express its blessings and good intentions, the Armored Ape immediately read out its congratulatory gift.

"Eighteen high-grade sage realm magic tools, nine top-grade sage realm magic tools, six low-grade Zun realm magic tools, three mid-grade Zun realm magic tools, and one high-grade Zun realm magic tool."

"Buzz!"

After hearing the quality and quantity of magic tools the Back Connecting Ape gifted them, no matter if it was the top sects and clans hiding in the void, or the Yiyue Hall's Qin Emperor and Zi Xuan, or Bian Shengrui and Wu Sicheng who had entered the mansion in advance, all of them couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

The VIP area of the mansion!

"President, I originally thought that the wedding gift we prepared would allow us to at least rank in the top three, even if we are unable to take first place. But now, it seems that it might not be so!" Bian Shengrui shook his head and laughed bitterly.

"Great Elder, everything you can do is for the sake of being a merchant!"

Even though he was shocked, Wu Sicheng, who did not have a close relationship with Yu Haoran, did not want to waste too many of their qualifications to join the merchant guild just because of a face fight.

Therefore, when faced with Bian Shengrui's wry smile, he reminded him with a solemn expression.

Regarding this, Bian Shengrui only shrugged his shoulders, and a look of disappointment flashed past his eyes.

And Yun Xiang, who was seated below Bian Shengrui, had a cold glint flash across his eyes.

Compared to the shock of everyone, Yuan Zu's originally complacent expression instantly darkened, especially when he saw the slight provocative look from the arm piercing ape, his eyes surged with a hint of insanity.

"Sect Leader Ye, Yun Jie, after Senior Gongzi Ape finishes reading out the congratulatory gift, you two must stop Yuan Zu's act of wits and prevent it from truly hurting everyone's feelings."

Noticing the red line of blood appearing in Yuan Zu's eyes, Yu Haoran immediately knew that his emotions had already reached the edge of losing control.

Although losing control of his emotions would not affect the upcoming wedding nor cause any harm to Yuan Zu, it would still affect the resolution of the enmity between the two parties.

Therefore, Yu Haoran immediately used his spiritual will to inform Ye Junnan and Teng Yunjie.

Nodding towards Yu Haoran, Ye Junnan and Teng Yunjie stood to the left and right of Yuan Zu, prepared to stop the old ancestor who might lose his cool at any time.0

After withdrawing a hint of provocation in its eyes, the Armored Ape continued to read out loud.

"Eighteen high-grade eight spirit veins, nine high-grade seventh grade, six high-grade sixth-grade, three high-grade fifth-grade, and one low-grade fourth-grade spirit vein."

Yi Yue Hall!

"Crazy, completely crazy!"

After hearing the number and rank of the congratulatory gift the Armored Ape gave him, Zi Xuan completely lost control of himself and stood up, roaring out angrily.

"Your Majesty, you can either use all of Great Qin Empire's treasure vaults as dowry and gift all of them to Yu Haoran."

Faced with the empress dowager Zi Xuan's uncontrollable rage, the Qin Emperor was also deeply depressed and heartbroken to the point of not knowing what to say.

But Qin Lingfei couldn't help but mutter to herself in a low voice.

"I have no objections if you give all of them to Haoran."

"Qin Lingfei, what did you just say?"

In the room that Qin Lingfei was in, other than the six palace maids, who didn't dare to speak, there were only the three of them. Even though her voice was very soft earlier, Zi Xuan was still able to hear it.

Thinking about how Qin Lingfei, who was doted on since she was young, was actually willing to give away her family's treasure trove that she had painstakingly accumulated for thousands of years, to a Prince Consort for nothing.

"Nothing."

Seeing Zi Xuan who had fallen into a rage, Qin Lingfei hurriedly shook her head and denied. However, a trace of disappointment flashed past her eyes.

"Please calm your anger empress dowager, Ling Fei just made a slip of the tongue!"

After glaring at Qin Lingfei, Qin Di said with a smile.

"Prince Consort Ye is a noble man who views money like dirt. He doesn't care about how much we marry, so it's fine as long as we add 30% to our original foundation."

After hearing the Qin Emperor's decision, the anger in Zi Xuan's heart gradually calmed down, but when he heard that his dowry had shrunk by countless of times, Qin Lingfei was instantly displeased.

However, after seeing the Qin Emperor's fierce gaze, she could only pout her lips and sulk on her own.

In front of Prince Consort's residence!

Hearing that the Armored Ape's spirit veins not only doubled in number, but also that there was an extra low grade fourth-ranked spirit vein, even Yu Haoran who was rich couldn't help but look at it in shock.

Although a low-grade fourth-grade spirit vein was only one grade higher than a high-grade fifth-grade spirit vein, the difference between the two was like heaven and earth.

More importantly, a low-grade fourth-grade spirit vein had a very high chance of being able to produce a third-grade seventh-grade spirit stone, while a high-grade fifth-grade spirit vein could only produce third-grade sixth-grade spirit stones at most.

Even Yu Haoran, who had a rich body, was stunned by the arms of the Penetrating Ape, not to mention the Yuan Zu who had taken the initiative to provoke it.

The red veins in his eyes gradually returned to normal as the low grade fourth-grade spirit vein called out by the Arm Clearing Ape. His original thought of venting his anger by sending him a congratulatory gift was also completely extinguished.

He cupped his hands towards Yu Haoran, and with a lonely expression, Yuan Zu led Ye Junnan and the others into the residence.

Seeing that Yuan Zu had given up on his struggle for control, Yu Haoran secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time, shot a glance at the chief eunuch.
