A Journey Against the World
Chapter 73

Everyone smiled sinisterly towards Shua Xie who was now bound by chains all over his body, not only that, on his neck was already mounted a neck brace as if ready to conduct a head-scaling trial. Shua Xie smiled faintly staring at all of them, the scenario he prepared went smoothly. Originally he wanted to fight all the higher-ups of the Bora kingdom, but knowing almost all of them were Cultivators, Shua Xie locked up his intentions. If he fought him out for sure as a winner, but that was not what he wanted, he wanted to come out as a winner but had to make them all surprised at him. Finally Shua Xie chose a plan to let himself be caught despite some heavy attacks, but fortunately the Curse rhyme protected him from ant attacks like them. Shua Xie just pretended to look helpless for them all to believe in Shua Xie's scenario.

"Look at this girl, she originally came with so much confidence, but in reality she was already on the verge of death."

"At first I thought this naive girl was so strong that she dared to rebel in the kingdom of Bora, but it turned out that only a little girl did not know the rules. I think he's got less teaching than his two parents."

"Surely, he scared me a little. It was unexpected that I was the one who looked up to her too highly."

Various insults and insults continue to be launched on Shua Xie. If they had known that Shua Xie had not listened to them and instead had a conversation with Phoe in the inner realm, what would those people have done? Could it be that they were furious and instantly killed Shua Xie.

It must have happened but ...

Thats impossible.

Just that word that Shua Xie had revealed to them in his mind, they thought the chains that bound Shua Xie were capable of making him depressed? Only a fool thinks like that. With the poem Curse, it is not not easy to make the chain break. If Shua Xie did not want to play the scenario first, he would have beaten them one by one.

"Huh, isn't this too much? You fucked them all, aren't you afraid they'd all lose their jobs in this kingdom? In any case, Xui Sukong held the most power, getting rid of them all was not a difficult thing." Phoe did not understand why Shua Xie was suddenly ignorant like this, unlike the usual who was always serious and thinking forward.

Shua Xie smiled faintly at Phoe's remark, it's true that Shua Xie shouldn't act like this considering his highly esteemed status Xui Sukong. If Xui Sukong saw his Queen tied up like this, it was certain that Xui Sukong would go berserk.

"A little pencil should not matter, even this is a lesson for royal officials. Do they not care about their citizens? In the city square it might be peaceful, but around it they closed their eyes there was no action. Don't you remember when we went around Bora town? Seeing so many things that Xui Sukong didn't know because the royal higher ups didn't bring him up, let me warn them not to act arbitrarily." Shua Xie had a cold, flat face, seemingly displeased when he discussed the incident this afternoon after parting with 3 foolish men, and investigating a little about the city of Bora.

As they parted ways, Shua Xie headed straight for Bora city seeing the situation for a moment. Perhaps Shua Xie will get interesting information about the center of the Underworld, namely the response of the Great Leader to the attack of the Upper world forces in the city of Keki.

The news of the attack on the city of Keki has spread throughout the Underworld considering that the city of Keki does not cover the problem with the outside world. Moreover, Rong Sui also gave the bad news to the Great Leader. Since Shua Xie was faster to leave the city of Kekai, he did not have time to hear back from the Great Leader. But the reply from the Great Leader should have already existed and spread throughout the entire Underworld. As a sign of alert for the next attack that will happen sometime, who must be vigilant before the possibility of bad happens is not a problem, right?

Instead of getting information about the city of Keki, Shua Xie actually got another surprise. Bora City is famous as the 2nd successful city in the Underworld, but the position of the government in the 3rd rank. All that prosperity was thanks to Xui Sukong's hard work as a King or Emperor, not only was he a great power amongst all the other royal leaders, he was a great power, he also played an important role in advancing the decline of the city of Bora that had occurred when he was still the beginning of becoming King. Fortunately thanks to the experience of Shujin Xian as the King of the Sky Kingdom, Xui Sukong learned a lot from his King. Shujin Xian taught him about the tactics of governing the kingdom for the better.

Xui Sukong's experience was all he got from Shujin Xian who was kindly willing to teach this General of his. And thanks to all of that, Xui Sukong was unable to deny that he had succeeded in applying everything Shujin Xian had taught him.

But the peace of Bora is not as comfortable as it seems, the proof is that many poor people are hungry and need protection from illegal slave marketing. Not only that, even some royal soldiers collect taxes on suburban people who are not supposed to be taxed, all of it the work of royal officials, thinking that Xui Sukong will like their actions. Instead of making them never bear the title of royal superior again, only they have not said all that to Xui Sukong because they wait for all their results have been fruitful, and there came a time when they would unmask them in front of Xui Sukong as a reward.

Moreover, many royal people used royal names in acting, if they wanted something, what was sold was the name of the kingdom. It was like Xui Lang was acting as he pleased to oppress the people he was supposed to protect.

Most of the people of the city of Bora live a peaceful and happy life, but it only belongs to them the sycophant and is at least enough to protect themselves. What about the poor, the orphans? They should have received protection and financial assistance from the kingdom, but they could have had the opposite. Squeezed and bullied.

Phoe also admitted, behind the name of the city of Bora, there was bitterness for people helpless against the cruelty of the noble family. Phoe as the King in his kingdom, he could understand that, he also realized why all this time he did not have thoughts like Shua Xie.

Open to the harsh reality of the weak.

Phoe was only concerned with the progress of his kingdom, regardless of whether all his people were happy. He used to only think that by making the government successful then his people will also succeed. But he's real he's just waking up now. His strength was indeed strong, but he could not see the hearts of all his people. That's lack!

"It turns out that Shua has grown up, I didn't think you cared much about other humans." Phoe could not deny that she was amazed at the kindness of Shua Xie, even though Shua Xie's mask was not in line with her kindness.

In Phoe's eyes, Shua Xie was just a girl who wanted power and big ambitions to reclaim her rights. But behind that side it turns out there is still a sense of care for others who do not even have anything to do with it.

"You don't understand, I just don't want my general to look bad in the eyes of his people. In any case, the people he leads should be happy. You know, a leader's happiness is when he sees his followers happy. But it was only categorized for the Leader in charge," Shua Xie replied with a faint smile.

Phoe smiled at Shua Xie's remark, It's not wrong for me to acknowledge him as the leader of the Phoenix race. If the other races knew how the candidate Leader of all these Leaders seemed to care more about than his own ambitions. I'm sure they'll think the same as me, ' Phoe said in a heart full of amazement.

"You know, what would I do to you if my Uncle agreed to my request?" xui Lang asked with an arrogant tone.

Shua Xie clucked cynically in his heart, it felt like he could not wait to grab the brat's hair in front of him. Hearing how arrogant Xui Lang was when Shua Xie was caught by the royal warrior, he was, it made Shua Xie very impatient to see what kind of reaction Xui Lang would have if he knew that his Uncle was very respectful towards this girl he was asking.

'Please a little more. Patience yourself Shua Xie. It's not Shua Xie's name if it doesn't make them so surprised at how great you are before the King they're proud of.'

Everyone was waiting for Xui Sukong's arrival, after successfully capturing Shua Xie they immediately reported their arrest to Xui Sukong. Not knowing what proud reaction Xui Sukong would give them as devoted followers, but that was only their hope. In fact, they are only rats that do not have teeth, without knowing to make them will be difficult themselves.

It didn't take long, the large brown door studded with gold and silver carvings opened wide, revealing 5 gallant men and 1 beautiful woman.5 The men were Xui Sukong, Chen Xui, and the others were all beautiful, General Xiaotian, Adviser Ming Yun and the soldier who was sent to call Xui Sukong a few minutes ago. And 1 woman who is none other than the Empress or Queen of this kingdom, Sakura Nayunxi.

With a swift step they approached everyone in the main hall room. Everyone lowered their heads in reverence for the arrival of their King and Queen, along with the Crown Prince.

Xui Sukong did not comment on the words of the person who greeted him, he focused on the road to the throne where on the throne was sitting a girl with a haughty style. Perhaps everyone was unaware that Shua Xie had already released himself from the chain as they were all busy seeing the arrival of their King Xui Sukong.

"Oh, finally came General Xui as well. Do you know how long I've been waiting for you? Make your Queen wait aren't you afraid I'll cut off your head?" A soft but threatening voice that everyone could hear clearly.
