Chapter 713: Chapter 321 The Discovery of the Tracking Dog, Qi Yuan is actually...

Qi Yuan seemed not to notice the deep mockery in the two men’s eyes.

"Lead the way, I need to learn how to have a proper wedding ceremony," he said.

Hearing this, the dark-skinned man simply thought Qi Yuan was a naive wealthy man from the county city.

"Who could be more grand in wedding matters than our Sea God? Our Sea God is a deity that can communicate with the heavens and penetrate the earth!"

The pride of discussing the greatness of the Sea God made the dark-skinned man puff out his chest.

"How many wives has the Sea God taken?" Qi Yuan casually asked. "I’m here to take notes."

"That..." the dark-skinned man frowned. "It’s been three years since the Sea God arrived, and he takes a young woman every two months.

I don’t know why, but although he just married one last month, he wants another this month, sigh."

The dark-skinned man felt somewhat distressed when he mentioned this.

He himself was already thirty years old and still hadn’t found a wife.

The old lover from the brothel had also been tricked into marrying the Sea God.

"Three years?" Qi Yuan pondered. "Does the Sea God have anything to do with the Aquatic Clan from the county city, whether weak or strong?"

The boss of the Demon Clan in the county city was none other than Boss Kun of the Aquatic Clan.

And here, they had the Sea God.

There may well be some connection between the two.

"No," the dark-skinned man shook his head and then continued to hold his chest high, "Half a year ago, Boss Kun from the county city came to our Sea Stone Village, seeking an audience with our Sea God."

What this statement reflected was the status of the Sea God, not inferior to Boss Kun, even possibly higher.

"I see."

Many thoughts crossed Qi Yuan’s mind.

If that was the case, then the Sea God must also be a Great Demon of the Jade Blood Realm.

Now, the demons of Yunyan County were all gathered at three strongholds.

Grandpa Huang and Snake Woman had called various demons to the two external strongholds.

Therefore, the addresses of these strongholds were also exposed to Qi Yuan’s sight.

All of these demons were exterminated by Qi Yuan.

Only the stronghold where Boss Kun resided had so far provided Qi Yuan with no clues.

Logically, all the well-known demons of Yunyan County should have gone to the three major strongholds.

As a Great Demon of the Jade Blood Realm like the Sea God, he probably should have been with Boss Kun, discussing the matter of the Son of Spirit Blood.

Instead, the Sea God went his own way, continuing to marry wives here.

This was getting interesting.

Why not, make a bold guess?

Could Boss Kun be the Sea God’s wife?

Boss Kun disappears without telling the Sea God, and the jealous Sea God angrily marries two wives.

It makes sense, far more reliable than what the unofficial histories say.

Qi Yuan looked deeper into Sea Stone Village, his interest growing even stronger.

Following the dark-skinned man, Qi Yuan entered Sea Stone Village.

Within Sea Stone Village, many robust men could be seen, wearing rough hemp clothes, with their chests bared.

As for young women, they were extremely rare.

Just entering the village, Qi Yuan smelled a strong fishy odor, and on the low thatched roofs, fish were drying in sieves.

Some eaves also hung with salted fish.

In the corners, scraps of red paper seemed to have been washed by the rain to the base of the walls.

The small fishing village was filled with a depressing yet festive atmosphere.

At that moment, not far away, a quarrel could be heard.

"You may be from the Government Office, but here in Sea Stone Village, the Sea God takes precedence, the Government Office can only come second.

Want to see the Sea God? No way!"

"Hmph, what kind of bullshit laws are these? Aren’t the laws just ropes you officials use to tie around our necks?"

"Can the county magistrate ensure we have enough to eat? Can the damned Emperor ensure our safety while fishing?"

"Since they can’t, the Sea God is supreme."

The village chief, with a quivering beard, showed no courtesy even to the government officers.

In the past three years, Sea Stone Village had grown stronger and stronger.

There were over a thousand strong men.

And hundreds of fishing boats, large and small.

If at first Sea Stone Village needed the help of Officialdom to prevail over the neighboring villages,

now, they no longer cared about the Court Government at all.

The villagers here could be fishermen or pirates.

Moreover, with the backing of the Sea God, they had no fear of Officialdom.

An Qiao, leading a Tracking Dog, heard the village chief’s words, and her brow furrowed tightly: "How innocent are these women married to the Sea God?"

After all, she came from modern society, and even with many experiences like this, she still could not accept or approve of such things.

The old village chief looked at An Qiao with contempt: "Exchanging a few women for a year’s harvest, now that’s a profitable deal.

People, either they serve Officialdom and the Government Office like cattle or serve the Sea God as servants.

Either way, why not choose the one that we can see benefits from?"

In the eyes of the old village chief, weren’t people just resources?

As long as they were resources, they could be traded and exchanged.

The other villagers looked at An Qiao and the few government officers beside her with ill intentions, clearly agreeing with the village chief’s words.

In the past, they toiled from dawn to dusk, fishing, and more than seventy percent of their catch had to be handed over to the Court Government and were exploited by petty officials.

Seeing those wearing official garb, fawning and groveling.

Life was hopeless back then.

Unlike now, living well, daring to curse right at a government officer’s face.

An Qiao was frustrated, mainly because she felt the village chief might have a point: "What if you were in the place of those women married to the Sea God, would you be willing?"

The old village chief looked at An Qiao with disdain: "Young man, you must come from a decent background to ask such a naïve question at your age.

Those married to the Sea God are they, not me.

If I were them, of course, I would be unwilling, but... I’m not them.

Why don’t you ask the bloody Emperor that question? Would he be willing to be a farmer, with his face to the soil and his back to the sky, while still paying harsh taxes to the Emperor?"
