Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 943
Chapter 943 Borrowing Flowers to Offer Buddha
After Alec finished speaking about his decision, Jiang Feng immediately confirmed that Alec was definitely not a simple person.
It could even be said that this Alec was simply a wonderful person.
In his decision to dispose of it, almost everything Jiang Feng wanted was included.
For example, he fiercely knocked on a bamboo pole, or forcefully ignored this fourth-grade water elemental essence gem. Of course … the most important thing was to apologize in public.
According to Alec’s treatment, Jiang Feng could be said to have achieved all he wanted.
Jiang Feng was not a person who didn’t know how to accept the offer. After thinking for a while, he said, “Your Excellency the Bishop has treated it fairly. Boni admires it. However, Boni still has one condition. I hope that Your Excellency the Bishop will agree to it.”
“There are conditions?” Alec frowned slightly, a trace of displeasure flashing through his eyes.
Clearly, Alec didn’t like Jiang Feng being too greedy.
“General Boni, please tell me your conditions.”
Jiang Feng stood up and bowed to Alec, “Boni hopes that General Mengde will compensate me for the million magic crystals and give them to His Holiness. Now that our Dark Demon Legion has just entered the Dark Demon New Territories, I think His Holiness should build a sacred hall for the Holy See to preach.”
“Of course, I also do this so that I can often go to the sacred hall to pray and listen to the scriptures. Therefore, this is my little selfishness. I hope the Bishop can fulfill it.”
As soon as Jiang Feng said those words, Alec’s eyes lit up again as he looked at Jiang Feng.
He kept smiling and nodding. He knew that Jiang Feng was using him as a shield, but Alec couldn’t help but feel elated.
In the end, Alec was unable to resist the great move to build the first sacred hall in the Dark Demon New Territories. He nodded and said, “Alright, General Boni, you have your heart. On behalf of the Holy See, I thank you.”
When Augustus heard Alec’s words of respect, he raised his hand and said, “Your Excellency, if you want to build a sacred hall, then five hundred thousand magic crystals might not be enough.”
Actually, I discussed this with General Carlos, General Windsor, and General Ludwig.
“Now that I have spoken, I will, on behalf of the three of them and myself, apply for two million magic crystal coins to help build the Sacred Palace.”
“Ah, isn’t this … a bit too much?” Although Alec had said that, the excitement in his eyes had clearly betrayed his true thoughts.
Augustus was also an expert at beating snakes and sticks. He quickly shook his head and said, “Not many, not many. How can there be many? This is the first sacred hall in our Dark Demon New Territories. We must build it perfectly to show the dignity of the Holy Church.”
“Since that’s the case, then Alec would like to thank the generals.” As Alec spoke, he even stood up and bowed to Auguste and Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng and Auguste returned the greetings.
In the process of returning the greeting, Auguste secretly used his elbow to touch Jiang Feng’s arm. Then, he gave Jiang Feng a thumbs up with a complacent expression.
Originally, the matter should have come to an end by now. Unexpectedly, after hearing Auguste and Jiang Feng’s proposal to build a sacred hall, Mengde quickly reacted.
Mengde hurriedly shouted, “Lord … Lord Bishop, I… we are also willing to contribute. We will offer three million magic crystal coins to help build the sacred palace!”
Alec frowned slightly at Mengde and replied without even considering the exam, “No need, 2.5 million magic crystal coins is enough to build a very grand sacred hall. If I were to collect another 3 million magic crystal coins from you, the Holy See would probably suspect me of earning money in the name of building the sacred hall.”
Alec’s refusal left Mengde in a daze.
Mengde could accept that he had fallen into Jiang Feng’s hands and suffered a heavy loss. However, he could not accept Jiang Feng and Augustus pulling Alec to their side.
But now, it was clear that Alec had been recruited. He took the magic crystal coins from one family and not the other. This was equivalent to expressing his position and attitude.
Mengde could foresee that in the future, the Dark Demon Martial Arts that he belonged to would definitely not be as easy to live in the Dark Demon New Territories as before.
Alec stood up and gently brushed his red robe with his hands. As he tidied up his clothes, he said, “Alright, let’s go out. Today is General Windsor’s youngest daughter’s birthday. We shouldn’t stay here for too long.”
“Yes.” Jiang Feng and the others agreed in unison, then followed behind Alec in the direction of the main hall.
The music in the hall became very gentle. General Windsor and his little daughter were standing together, receiving gifts from these high-ranking generals who came to Crown Heaven Palace to give to General Windsor’s little daughter one by one.
Jiang Feng did not know that today’s banquet was to celebrate General Windsor’s youngest daughter’s birthday, so he did not prepare any gifts before.
Fortunately, Jiang Feng had just obtained a fourth-grade Water Elemental Essence Gem from An Nailin. To Jiang Feng, this gemstone had no value at all. On the contrary, it was extremely suitable for him to borrow flowers and offer Buddha sacrifices.
Everyone in the main hall of the Heavenly Crown Palace lined up. General Windsor and her little daughter would open the gifts that everyone gave to General Windsor’s little daughter in front of them, and then express their gratitude.
Jiang Feng and the others came out late, so they stood at the back of the line.
Jiang Feng searched his mind for information about General Windsor’s youngest daughter. In the end, he discovered that before Boni left Dark Devil Realm, General Windsor only had two sons and no daughters.
“Looks like General Windsor’s youngest daughter was born after I left the Dark Devil Realm.” Jiang Feng muttered to himself in a low voice.
‘”Yes, Taylor was indeed born after you left the Dark Demon Realm. She is a famous beauty in our Dark Demon Realm. She is also a little genius. She was promoted to a 1-star Dark Demon last year.” Auguste whispered.
Jiang Feng nodded. Then, his neck tilted slightly. He spared the people in front of him and looked at the little beauty Taylor Windsor.
It had to be said that the Dark Devil Realm’s aesthetics were similar to Primordial world’s.
Even from Jiang Feng’s aesthetic point of view, Taylor could still be considered a top beauty.
She had long, curly, flax-colored hair that was dense and smooth, giving her the impression of wanting to reach out and touch it.
Compared to the Primordial Chaos, Taylor’s facial features were much more three-dimensional. In the middle of her bright and large eyes was a bright sapphire-like pupil. She looked very exotic and beautiful.
Of course, compared to Taylor’s facial features, what attracted more attention was her hot figure.
Although Taylor wasn’t as exaggerated as Augustus, she was still close to two meters tall. Compared to Jiang Feng, she wasn’t short.
A large proportion of her two-meter tall body was occupied by her slender legs. Looking up her pair of mesmerizing legs, her slender waist gave off a feeling that she could only grasp it with one hand.
On his slender waist, that pair of round, snow-white bulges made Jiang Feng almost unable to move his gaze away.
Suddenly, Jiang Feng felt someone pushing him behind him. He turned around and saw Augustus looking at Jiang Feng with a wicked smile. “General Boni, it’s your turn.”
Jiang Feng turned around and looked ahead. He realized that there was no one in front of him. He tilted his head to look at Taylor’s appearance. Many people were probably already looking at him.
At this moment, Jiang Feng regained his senses and the surrounding people burst into laughter.
Jiang Feng couldn’t help but laugh at himself. He shook his head and walked over to Taylor. General Windsor seemed to be deliberately teasing Jiang Feng as he pointed at Taylor and introduced him, “Daughter, this is Uncle Boni. He has fought side by side with my father many times. He is a great hero of our Dark Devil Realm.”
“Uncle Boni.” Taylor, who was dressed in a snow-white dress, held the hem of his skirt and bowed slightly to Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng scratched the back of his head awkwardly. He took out the Fourth Grade Water Elemental Essence Gem from the box and handed it to Taylor. “Your father and the others are too bad. No one told me that today is your birthday before inviting me, so I didn’t prepare a birthday present for you.”
This gift was given to me by Bishop Alec just now. I give it to you now. I wish you happiness and beauty at such a young age. ”
“Thank you, Uncle Boni.”
Taylor took the box from Jiang Feng’s hand. She glanced at General Windsor. General Windsor nodded and signaled for Taylor to open the gift.
After Taylor opened the gift, a bright light shone. She looked at the pure and resplendent Water Elemental Essence Gem in the box, her mouth slightly open.
Taylor was born into a noble family. Naturally, he could tell at a glance that this Water Elemental Essence Gem was fourth-grade, and its value was not exaggerated at all when it was described as priceless. She looked at Jiang Feng in surprise and joy and said, “Uncle Boni, is this really for me?”
Jiang Feng smiled and nodded, “I hope you will like it.”
“Yes.” Taylor nodded heavily. “I like it very much. Thank you, Uncle Boni.”
As he spoke, Taylor extended his mouth and kissed Jiang Feng on the cheek. Jiang Feng touched his cheek and walked away with a smile.
After Jiang Feng gave the gift, it was Auguste’s turn. After Auguste gave the gift, Alec immediately said loudly, “I hope the beautiful Miss Taylor can forgive me for wasting your time. Next, I have to ask General Mengde and Major Anerin to apologize for General Boni.”
After Alec finished speaking, he made a “please” gesture to Mengde and Anerin. Mengde and Anerin were helpless and could only walk out of the crowd to bow to Jiang Feng and say, “Sorry, General Boni, we were wrong.”
