“Good. Since there are no objections, this matter can now be formally announced to the public,” the clan leader said with a smile.
The next day, the elf clan leader announced to the entire elf clan the news that Lin Yun and Zi Tong were to have a grand wedding.
Because Lin Yun was human, the news quickly caused a great stir within the elf clan.
Everyone was inquiring about this human named Lin Yun, wondering what kind of person he was to be able to marry Zi Tong.
Only after asking around did they learn that Lin Yun was the champion of this year’s human race pinnacle competition.
At the same time, everything that had happened to Lin Yun in Chaos City, including the elf clan’s dispatch of rescuers and the slaying of two Golden Supremes from the six major forces, soon spread throughout the elf clan.
Among the common elves, it was widely said that the clan leader was making this move for the future peace of the elf clan, playing a major chess piece.
Of course, there were also many opponents, especially the hawkish faction aligned with the fourth prince. Some even went directly to the clan leader to remonstrate, arguing that humans were unworthy of uniting with elves.
However, the clan leader’s mind was made up, and no one’s words could sway him.
All opposing voices and people were suppressed by the clan leader.
The wedding preparations proceeded at full speed.
Half a month passed quickly.
On the day of the grand wedding, the entire royal city was decorated with lanterns and coloured banners, filled with celebration.
The wedding was personally presided over by the clan leader, and everything went very smoothly.
Lin Yun received congratulations from all the major figures of the elf clan and got to know them.
The hawkish fourth prince did not appear.
Outside the royal palace, the clan leader had also prepared a mansion for Zi Tong and Lin Yun as their wedding residence.
This would also be Lin Yun’s residence in the elf clan from now on, named Prince Consort Lin Manor.
After the wedding ended, night fell.
Inside the bridal chamber of the prince consort’s manor.
Lin Yun and Zi Tong, both dressed in wedding attire, sat on the edge of the bed.
Zi Tong had dressed carefully today and looked exceptionally beautiful. The unique beauty of female elves was fully embodied in her.
“Lin Yun, from today onward, I, Zi Tong, am yours,” Zi Tong said softly as she leaned gently into Lin Yun’s arms.
“Zi Tong, rest assured, I will work hard for the peace of the elf clan,” Lin Yun said, taking Zi Tong’s hand and making a promise to her.
Lin Yun naturally understood that the clan leader’s arrangement for him to marry Zi Tong, as well as the elf clan’s willingness to help and protect him, was all for the future peace of the elf clan.
While receiving benefits from the elf clan, he also had to shoulder corresponding responsibilities.
“Did you marry me just for this mission?” Zi Tong pouted.
“It’s not that I married for the mission. Rather, after marrying, I must take on this mission,” Lin Yun explained with a smile.
“That’s more like it.” Zi Tong leaned further into Lin Yun’s arms and smiled.
Lin Yun gently stroked Zi Tong’s beautiful hair and said, “Zi Tong, I will definitely protect you well.”
The matter of Wang Xue had always been a pain in Lin Yun’s heart. Naturally, he did not want Zi Tong to suffer even the slightest harm.
…
The next day, at noon.
When Lin Yun woke up, he found Zi Tong nestled in his arms, her enchanting eyes open and gazing at him.
“Zi Tong, how long have you been awake?” Lin Yun asked in surprise.
“I just woke up a little while ago. You were sleeping so soundly, I didn’t want to disturb you,” Zi Tong replied with a beautiful smile.
Lin Yun smiled and gently kissed her forehead.
Thinking carefully, Lin Yun realised it had been a long time since he had slept so peacefully and properly.
After all, at Lin Yun’s level of strength, he no longer needed sleep.
Since coming to the ancestral land, he had not experienced this warmth from a partner for a very long time.
“By the way, Lin Yun, Grandfather said to have you go see him tomorrow. He will arrange for you to receive the Spirit Spring Baptism. This is the most precious opportunity of our elf clan and will be of great benefit to cultivating your divine sense,” Zi Tong said softly.
“Since it’s tomorrow’s matter, we’ll think about it tomorrow. Right now, this time belongs to us,” Lin Yun said with a grin as he pulled the covers over them.
In the afternoon.
After the two got up, Lin Yun sat at the table and took out a storage ring.
Inside it was the dowry.
Zi Tong sat beside Lin Yun, keeping him company.
With anticipation, Lin Yun opened the storage ring.
The Source Heart was inside.
Lin Yun quickly took out the Source Heart and held it in his hand.
The third Source Heart was now in his possession!
At this moment, Lin Yun’s heart was naturally filled with excitement.
Lin Yun had always believed that the Source Tree definitely held a great secret!
