Rise of the Great Emperor-Chapter 444: A Deal (2)
Chapter 444: A Deal (2)
Lin Xiao proceeded to walk to the courtyard and towards the lake. Thanks to the lake and the management that Lu Jian made, it seemed that a lot of people were already trying so hard to earn his respect.
He looked at the lake and sighed. It took him a long time to divert the ancient power and the dragon power needed to form the formation from himself to the surroundings. Thanks to that, he was no longer restricted from going away from the lake anymore.
It was time to leave.
"Brother, you're here?" Lin Yun was surprised to see Lin Xiao there.
Lin Xiao turned around and looked at Lin Yun. Over the past few months, Lin Yun was the one who had been helping him the most. As an alchemist, he also had great prestige and after passing the examination, he was one of the youngest alchemist in the entire Sun Kingdom.
For politics and so on, Lin Xiao mostly left it to Prince Lin Xian since his second brother was the most familiar one with it.
"Yun, I'm going to leave."
Lin Yun froze. He looked at Lin Xiao with bewilderment. "Brother, you mean…?"
"I'm going to deal with the restriction and then earned the qualification to participate in 20 Years Ancient Battlefield." Lin Xiao knew that to be able to participate there, there must be some kind of qualification that he had to obtain. Since he wanted to bring Sun Kingdom to a much higher height, it was time for him to leave.
Hearing that, Lin Yun took a deep breath. "In that case, we'll be waiting for you here?"
"You'll take the role as the Emperor for the time being."
"…Brother, you can hand it to Prince Lin Xian."
"Fan Family prestige has been higher and you're also a promising alchemist. Prince Lin Xian might be good at handling the paperwork but in terms of popularity, you're better." Lin Xiao smirked. "Or do you think that you can't do this?"
Hearing the taunt, Lin Yun was speechless. This was the first time he felt that his brother was still treating him like a kid who would fall for such petty tricks. He shook his head and smirked. "Who said that I can't? I can do it!"
The two brothers looked at each other before they burst into laughter.
"Are you going to leave by yourself?"
"I'm taking Prince Lin San, Xia Ye, Xiao Hua, Prince Lin Yan, and… I want to bring that prince from Jade Snow Kingdom." Lin Xiao furrowed his brows. That prince might look like a frivolous prince and looked so pretty but he had sensed the power deep within that prince was not ordinary.
Even he felt slight threat.
If Prince Fu Liang could be trusted, he wanted to bring him along with him.
Lin Yun nodded. He thought for a moment. "How about your disciple?"
"…He's found by his family members and had long been taken away." Lin Xiao's face was a bit ugly when he mentioned this. He only found out later on that Long Hao was taken back to his kingdom, which was why that boy never appeared before him. It seemed that it would take him some time before he could meet with his disciple again.
Come to think about it… Long Hao was already 15 or 16 years old by now, right? Just how much stronger would he have been?
Lin Xiao was a bit curious but at the same time, he thought that it would be better for him to not know.
"Alright, take care brother. Don't shook them too much. I'll take care of that Fu Liang."
"Got it. Of course!"
After settling some matters, Lin Xiao conveyed his words to the others. Xia Ye had no problems. Princess Lan Yi Hua also didn't mind since she was only accompanying her husband. Prince Lin Yan had been planning to participate in that 20 Years Ancient Battlefield even without him saying anything, so there was no problem.
The only one who was confused was Prince Lin San.
"You want to bring me along?" Prince Lin San asked in a low tone. He looked at Lin Xiao as he couldn't understand what Lin Xiao was up to.
"Yep."
"Why?"
"Because you can't develop your full potential here." Lin Xiao shrugged. Prince Lin San was advancing faster and not long ago, Prince Lin San even reached Golden Core Stage 3 faster than him. In fact, Princess Lan Yi Hua was also the same as she had advanced to Golden Core Stage 3.
Only Prince Lin Yan was a stage higher but his cultivation was slightly suppressed when he was within this place.
Prince Lin San was speechless. "Why not Brother Xian?"
"He's not suited to follow."
"…"
Just because of that?
In the end, they didn't ask Lin Xiao more and just prepared themselves. Princess Lan Yi Hua was staying with Lin Xiao and snuggled in his arms. She had been away from him and he also missed her greatly.
"Do you mind leaving this place?"
"Not at all." Princess Lan Yi Hua knew that Lin Xiao's goal of becoming an Emperor of Sun Kingdom was nothing but a small goal. From the way Lin Xiao planned every steps and executed it a few months ago, she could see that he already had the power to take control of the entire kingdom even beforehand.
But now that Lin Xiao was planning to go out, it meant that there would be more dangers.
"Are you afraid?" Lin Xiao chuckled.
Princess Lan Yi Hua arched her eyebrows. She looked at Lin Xiao and smirked. "With you around, why should I be afraid?"
Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes. It seemed that he would have a long night today.
…
- Jade Snow Kingdom -
Prince Fu Liang conveyed what Lin Xiao said and waited for the elders to come into decision. He knew that the one who had the most power in the entire kingdom was not him.
The only reason why they sent him was because among the younger generation, he was the strongest.
