Chapter 552: Chapter 500 Sky Mechanism Pavilion, Sky Mechanism Envoy
Upon hearing Marquis Lixian’s rebuttal, a flash of sharp light shot across King Mo’s eyes, and a ruthless smile crept up on his lips: “When we were endorsing Ying Zhong, Marquis Lixian, you didn’t have such arguments. You praised Ying Zhong immensely, almost as if you acknowledged him as the one crucial for this mission.”
Any power struggle inevitably involves factions. In this ancient country of Great River, these powerful members of the royal court naturally bicker with each other.
But for Ying Zhong, who comes from the royal lineage, to not side with the royal faction and instead liaise secretly with Marquis Lixian causes displeasure among the people like King Mo.
If not for Ying Zhong’s death, even if he had made meritorious deeds, he would still face difficulties and obstructions from King Mo and the likes. After all, if they didn’t deal with him, what if other members of the royal court start acting in the same way?
But now that Ying Zhong’s death has disrupted the preparations for the Ancestral Land, it’s better to seize this opportunity to confront people like Marquis Lixian, although it affects their plans.
After all, the Ancestral Land has just recovered, and Ying Zhong’s death was accidental. Once the ancient country of Great River descends in future with its powerful strength, everything can be easily suppressed. This is the confidence that comes from the mighty.
Marquis Lixian would not accept defeat so readily and therefore rebutted right away.
There are countless followers behind these two individuals. Since they have taken the initiative to speak up, their followers also voice out their support immediately, even if they have minor disagreements about Marquis Lixian’s actions, they won’t choose to cause internal discord at this moment. Instead, they all focus on attacking the royal lineage.
In a blink of an eye, the many mighty fighters in the grand hall, the pillars of the Great River ancient country, were caught in a commotion, blaming each other.
Sitting high on the throne, the ruler Ying Lie was indifferent, neither sorrowful nor joyful, turning a blind eye as if he didn’t care about it.
“Silence, your riotous uproar is shameful,” a rebuke resonated throughout the court. The arguing parties heard this voice and immediately changed their expressions, silencing their voices.
“Please calm your anger, Prince Yuan.”
Everyone apologized to the person who rebuked.
The person who spoke was a handsome young man, but those who have reached this level of cultivation have the ability to maintain their youth, so one’s appearance can’t determine their actual age.
Prince Yuan, Ying Yuan, another powerful Eight-Level Spirit Realm fighter in ancient Great River country, is known as the first king of the Great River ancient country. He is the blood brother of the current ruler and usually stationed at the frontier to guard against the Demon Race, seldom returning to the court.
He rarely gets involved in court affairs and doesn’t participate in the struggle between the royal lineage and the nobles. When the ruler remains silent, he’s often the arbitrator between the two sides, so he’s greatly respected by both factions.
Since he has spoken now, the arguments on both sides naturally subside, waiting for King Yuan’s opinion.
“My Lord, we need to investigate the cause of this incident thoroughly. We need to figure out what happened in the Ancestral Land, causing Ying Zhong, a Great Cultivator of the Sixth-Level of Spirit Realm, to perish. In my perspective, we should consult the Sky Mechanism Pavilion.” King Yuan expressed his opinion and suggestion.
He usually doesn’t concern himself with the disputes between the two sides. If not for the fact that Ying Zhong’s death relates to the plan of returning to the Ancestral Land, the demise of a Sixth-Level Spirit Realm Great Cultivator, even of royal lineage, would not be worth his attention, let alone cause him to leave the frontier.
In his opinion, since the initial information came from the Sky Mechanism Pavilion, naturally it should be the place to go and inquire. With their means, they should have an answer.
“What thoughts do you have about King Yuan’s perspective?”
King Ying Lie nodded his head, his gaze sweeping over each person in the court. They all felt a chilling sensation on their back, as if they were being watched by a terrifying creature.
“We have no opinion, all is to be decided by our Lord.” The crowd shouted in unison.
The stance of the ruler was apparent. Since both the ruler and King Yuan approved, any opinions they had were suppressed.
“In that case, let King Yuan handle this matter.”
“I will follow your decree.”
……
The Sky Mechanism Pavilion, originally known as Bai Xiaosheng back in the Ancestral Lands, is now headed by Master Tianji. In every major city of the human race in Sky Wasteland, there exists a Sky Mechanism Pavilion. These pavilions are managed by a Sky Mechanism Envoy.
And of course, a bustling place like Jiang City in the territory of the ancient Great River country naturally has the presence of a Sky Mechanism Pavilion.
When King Yuan stepped into the Sky Mechanism Pavilion in a very low-key manner, the Sky Mechanism Envoy, who seemed to have anticipated his arrival, had been waiting for quite some time.
“Greetings, Prince Yuan.” The Sky Mechanism Envoy greeted with a slight bow.
Although the Sky Mechanism Envoy is just a Sixth-Level Spirit Realm Cultivator, when facing an Eight-Level Spirit Realm powerhouse like Prince Yuan, he remains calm and composed without any trace of nervousness.
“You are well aware of why I am here today, aren’t you?” freewёbnoνel.com
King Yuan was accustomed to this individual’s attitude. After all, the influence of the Sky Mechanism Pavilion is not small. Rumors say that not only does the Sky Mechanism Pavilion have Master Tianji, a Nine Realms of Spirit powerhouse, but also other such powerful individuals.
Moreover, for numerous years, the Sky Mechanism Pavilion has been dealing in information, so they have won over countless powerhouses. Nobody knows how many of these powerhouses have intricate connections with the Sky Mechanism Pavilion.
To be honest, even a force like the Great River ancient country, King Yuan is somewhat apprehensive of the Sky Mechanism Pavilion’s depth.
“Since you know why I am here, and you seem confident, you must have an answer already,” King Yuan stated upon hearing the envoy’s words.
“Indeed!” The Sky Mechanism Envoy confidently asserted.
“What’s the price?” King Yuan asked directly without hesitation.
The Sky Mechanism Envoy smiled slightly and named his price.
Upon hearing the price, even someone as astute as King Yuan could not help but frown.
……
“Divine Dynasty? Are you saying that a new Divine Dynasty has emerged in the Ancestral Land?” The ruler Ying Lie’s face changed drastically.
As the ruler of the ancient country of Great River, Ying Lie has held power for thousands of years, weathered countless crises. Even when a powerful force came knocking on the door, it wouldn’t make him overly concerned, let alone, the death of Ying Zhong, a Great Cultivator of the Sixth-Level of Spirit Realm in the Ancestral Land.
However, the moment he heard the news King Yuan obtained from the Sky Mechanism Pavilion, his face turned pale, a shocked expression appearing on his face.
