Walking side by side with Meng Liyuan in silence, spiral of thoughts and guesses running through Hong Ming's minds. Five minutes later, both of them arrived at the starting point where Hong Ming and Meng Liyuan were transported to this underground cave.
It was the same exquisite double doors as before. Without saying anything, the two of them walked to the double doors. As Meng Liyuan has been walking in front of Hong Ming all this time, she was the first one to get closer to the door.
With a flick of her Lingqi, the double doors quickly trembled in response as it opened the doors itself. When Meng Liyuan saw that, she resumed her steps and went towards the double doors. Behind her, Hong Ming followed every step of hers as if a chick to his hen.
Shortly, the two
"You are coming with us?"A little surprised at what Hong Ming said, Ang Luo turned his face to the man before him with an intrigued expression. Meanwhile, Hong Ming leaned his back to the soft pillow that was placed right on the chair as a backrest. There was a slight smile on his face, as he was talking with the emperor of the Yunan Empire."Yes, your majesty."Even though he had joined the Equilibrium Palace owned by the Judge of Scaled, when Hong recalled the last conversation the two of them had, Meng Liyuan only said to let Hong Ming stay
Thirty years later, within the royal palace of the Yunan Empire, there's five middle aged men who were walking together in a group. Silver threads and images of blue dragons could be seen adorning their robe official's robe. In the middle of the group, one of the middle aged men seemed to be walking slightly ahead of his peers, as if a leader of them."The condition in the north is worsening lately, huh.""What do you expect? The one who responsible for Hui city is incompetent official.""I heard that the mayor had joined the royal faction."
A middle aged man that looks like he was only in his early thirties was donned on the emperor's robe and strode to the throne from the entrance of the throne hall. Behind him were his most trusted subordinates, as well as his protectors.Each of them has tall stature, with arms as big as an adult's thigh. Various gears made for battle could be seen on their body, read for any unforeseen things that would happen to the emperor.However, one of them stood out like a sore thumb compared to the rest, for he's not a human like all of them within the throne hall. His snow-like mane and his long ears had caught the attention of most people within the room. Though he has his half beast figure, he still wore clothes that's suitable for
"This is my final verdict. No one can change it."Saying it with a stern voice, Ang Luo shut down most of the officials with his tone and his determined gaze. No one dared to face the emperor or rebut him openly. Immediately, silence reigned over the throne hall and made the place in a pin drop atmosphere."When the inauguration ceremony would be, Your majesty?" asked one of the generals who stood at the line of military rank and bowed his body to Ang Luo. He was tall and imposing with his dazzling armor. On his back was a tiger mane, to which rumoured to be a demonic beast in an Aura Condensing realm that he killed himself with his bare hands. Waking in the spacious passage in silence, the emperor Ang Luo was followed by his entourage of protectors while he was on his way to his study room. There's some opposition to the court meeting that happened not so long ago. But then, it was a normal sight for Ang Luo as everyone within the court always has their own hidden agendas."Hong Ming…"Ang Luo halted his steps and called out the name of one of the protectors out of nowhere. The person whose name was called quickly walked to the emperor's side while clasping his hands as he bowed slightly, "I'm here."On their right side, they could oversee the scenery of neatly decorated gardens filled with many kinds of flowers and trees. It was awfully quiet in that garden, as usually, his daughter wouldThe Saga of the Unbroken 331. Task
Taking out a golden scroll out of thin air, the emperor placed it right on the table. At the same time, his other hand also pulled out a jade crafted token, with the words 'Imperial Tally' on it."Do you know what this is, Hong Ming?"Looking at the token solemnly, Hong Ming nodded deeply and answered, "It's the Imperial Tally. The one who held such an item would have the authority to command the entire army of the empire in the name of the emperor."Smiling at Hong Ming's words, Ang Luo replied, "That's right. This item holds immense power and bears my name directly even when I'm not there. In the wrong hand, it could be used as a
After he parted ways with the emperor, Ang Luo, Hong Ming sighed to himself while he walked the hallway that led him to the outer gate of the royal empire. Although many people came to the court meeting not too long ago, however, the area has been back to its calmness soon. Many civil officials and military officials had come back to where they came from right after the court meeting ended.Yet, there are some people who choose to stay for a while before they set out to continue their world. The servants in the royal palace still maintained their business, as Hong Ming saw the eunuchs and maids walking around hastily on his way. "Fresh vegetables, fresh vegetables! The best vegetables in Mou city!""Discount on meat! You can get a pound of chicken or pig with only fifteen coppers!""Come, come! Our Longevity Pavilion would have half prices as it was our first month to open! Don't miss this chance!"Many kinds of shouts filled the atmosphere in the area as vendors, merchants, and many other people were shouting to the passerby to gain their attention on what they were trying to offer. It was a busy street, just like any other street.
