Chapter 293 Meeting The Emperor
Qin Zhen felt a strange discomfort when he saw the smile of Long Ming. ' Damn it, Why am I feeling like this? This bastard must have some evil thoughts about be.' Nôv(el)B\\jnn
He felt like punching Long Ming's face right there. But Qin Zhen calmed his urges.
" Ahem, Very well, I hope you remain…Safe and sound."
With a snort, Qin Zhen turned around and left. Long Ming couldn't help but show him a middle finger, but he got bumped by Jiang Wanxue.
" Damn it! Are you mad?" Jiang Wanxue couldn't help but quip. " Disrespecting the first prince, you might face some trouble."
" Hehe, I wonder if the Holy Qilin Empire would punish me for that?" Long Ming shrugged.
" Now, behave as we are going to enter the Imperial Study Hall." Jiang Wanxue snorted as she walked forward.
Reaching the doorsteps, Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes flashed as he surveyed the surroundings.
' Interesting, there are two Noble grade formations deployed here. So, Even if a Dao Refining Realm assassin takes action, he won't be able to be successful.'
' Not to mention, there are also hidden guards. Are they the Death Guards of the Emperor?'
" What are you looking at?"
" Nothing, Just admiring the scenery."
Long Ming and Jiang Wanxue stepped inside with Jiang Wanxue guiding him.
Suddenly, an eunuch appeared before them, stopping their way.
" Hoho, Princess Wanxue, What are you doing here?"
" Uncle Shu, His Majesty wishes to meet the True Disciple of Four Seasons Valley, Long Ming."
" Ah, I remember. Indeed, The True Disciple of Four Seasons Valley…Not bad."
Long Ming suddenly shivered when he felt the gaze of Eunuch Shu. He saw how he licked his lips while admiring Long Ming's physique.
' Damn it, Are all eunuchs are old perverts?' Long Ming couldn't help but shout inwardly.
But he had to admit, the strength of Eunuch Shu wasn't low at all. He already reached the Mid stage of Nine Transformation of Soul Realm.
' Not to mention, who knows what sort of tricks he is hiding?'
But, Long Ming's expression remained friendly as he cupped his fist.
" Junior Long Ming greets Eunuch Shu."
" Not bad, You are definitely worth grooming." Eunuch Shu smiled. " Does Young Master Long have some time after meeting the Emperor? We can have some private chat in my courtyard."
" I am afraid I can't guarantee you that, Eunuch Shu." Long Ming's face twitched as he suppressed his curse.
" After all, I dare not to guess how long His Majesty shall talk with me. I can't just leave in the middle, right?"
" Ah, Yes. You are right. Let's think about this some other day." Eunuch Shu showed a tinge of regret.
' You bastard, Why do I feel you are talking about a different kind of grooming?' Long Ming couldn't help but mumble in his heart.
He felt like Eunuch Shu's thoughts were anything but pure.
" Please, Come inside. Emperor is waiting for you." Eunuch Shu turned around and opened the door.
As Long Ming stepped inside, His body shivered by feeling a pair of gazes.
It was like a gigantic predator was looking at him, or a heavy mountain weighing on his body.
His Desolate Immortal Aura shone from his body, and his Immovable Will made his heart firm.
Kneeling with a single knee, Long Ming bowed. " True Disciple of Four Seasons Valley, Long Ming, greets the Emperor of Holy Qilin Empire."
" Hoho, Not bad. You can stand up."
Long Ming got up and looked at the Emperor. The Emperor, Qin Shuang sat wearing a yellow dragon robe, with a small crown mixed with gold and purple cloth on his head.
Although it wasn't the first time Long Ming had seen him, He could still feel that imposing aura from his body.
' He truly got the bearing of an emperor.'
With his Heavenly Revelation Eyes, Long Ming tried to gauge Qin Shuang's power.
Suddenly, a golden radiance manifested behind Qin Shuang, taking the form of a gigantic qilin.
" Insolent! You dare to disrespect His Majesty?"
Long Ming felt a sharp sword intent aiming at his neck. Without fear, he simply used his own sword intent.
*CLANG!!*
The sword intents clashed as Long Ming took a few steps back, However, He didn't show any fear at all.
In front of him stood a man wearing a black robe, with his face hidden behind a black mask.
" It's alright, You can go back." Qin Shuang replied with a mild voice.
The black masked person bowed as he vanished from his spot. Qin Shuang looked at Long Ming with a light chuckle.
" So, What do you see?"
" His Majesty's vitality is like a Blood Qilin and the great national fortune of the Holy Qilin Empire protects him." Long Ming replied with a smile.
" How can a mere me dare to look at His Majesty?"
" Haha, What a clever brat. Even if you are lying, you won't let anyone to suspect you." Qin Shuang laughed loudly.
Long Ming merely smiled but didn't report Qin Shuang. Qin Shuang's gaze fell on Jiang Wanxue.
" How are you, Daughter?"
" I thank His Majesty for showing concern. I am perfectly fine." Jiang Wanxue replied with a placid voice.
' Oho! Imperial Family drama? I should have brought some popcorn.' Long Ming chuckled inwardly.
" Heh, Stil cold as always, Huh?" Qin Shuang sighed as he looked at Long Ming.
" You have caused quite some stir in the Holy Qilin Empire. Among all the junior generation, you are currently the most shining one."
" His Majesty is flattering me. I am just a cultivator at the Primordial Spirit Unification Realm. How can I call myself the strongest?" Long Ming chuckled
" Is that so?" Qin Shuang chuckled. " Then how did this small cultivator break the formation of the Sky Martial Tower?"
" Reporting to His Majesty. Our sect is able to refine a spare key using the blood of the Sect Master Shen. So, I managed to infiltrate the sect with that."
" After entering, I destroyed the formation from inside, making it collapse."
" Well, If you can go inside the grand formation like that…Doesn't that mean you can also steal various treasures inside the Sky Martial Tower?"
Long Ming's expression froze when he heard that. " His Majesty is overestimating me. I broke the formation because the Sky Martial Tower was too arrogant, leading them not to protect the core."
" As for the treasures, I only managed to scrap some items and information from Core Disciple residents. How can I eye on the Treasure Tower, which is guarded by a Nine Transformation of Soul Realm expert?"
" Hmm, You are right, Unless you used a Natal Imperial Treasure to its full potential, It would have been impossible." Qin Shuang spoke.
" But, I wonder if you have any information regarding the Sky Fountain Palace?"
