A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 162 – Travel Together
They were already packing up and were about to leave when their sharp hearing caught an unnatural sound from within the thicket. Simultaneously the dozens of people stopped their activities and looked in the same direction. Their eyes poked as if a silat expert was ready for battle.
"Who?" scold one who is close to the forest.
"A friend!" answer the man in the forest. With the exertion on his voice, so that the clear smooth sound can echo to far away.
The one who reprimanded for the first time frowned and turned to his comrades. As if in the look in his eyes he was singing, "A woman?"
Shortly after, the crunching sound of bushes being breached by people's footsteps grew louder. You know these dozen people if that woman doesn't come alone.
Finally, after waiting for a while, appeared a beautiful thirty-year-old woman. His eyes were shining like stars in the night sky, his mouth smiling with gentleness.
Almost all of them fell down so surprised if they did not quickly kneel in respect. "Daughter's face." they said in unison so aware of who the person who had sent the sound of power within the forest had been.
"Rise up, you men of valor need not hesitate much" said Princess Song Zhu.
As they had planned, Chang Song Zhu's daughter would say all the narrations of the Gin officers who had unexpectedly found the headquarters of the Midnight Wolf.
After rising to his feet, respectfully a man who had rebuked said, "Is there a princess who has come all the way here.*
The woman smiled and invited them all to sit down. Then he said all his plans were to follow their entourage secretly in search of hard evidence to make the emperor believe that Prince Chang Song Ci was the head of the Midnight Wolf.
"For so long, you didn't believe me right, did you? Well..indeed, only I have ever seen his figure as the head of the perverted society."
The warriors looked at each other. It is true that this princess said, secretly they still lack trust because even though they are quite sure the prince is not a good person, he said, but it never crossed their minds that the prince would become the head of a gathering as big as the Midnight Wolf.
Although in their hearts they really expect the daughter's words to be true. Thus, there was no reason for them to doubt if they wanted to kill the prince. Because the evidence is real.
In an uneasy and condolent tone, the man replied, "I'm sorry for us about that."
"Don't think about it, it doesn't matter. Clearly, I want to deliver one important piece of news for all of us. And this determines our future." Song Zhu said confidently.
They all became interested, making them put on a good telanga to listen to every word that came out of the lips of the princess.
The princess called the officer Gin, then she introduced him to the warriors, "He was named the officer Gin. He's not been home for three days and he's lost his way. In that lost state, he accidentally discovered the existence of the Midnight Wolf headquarters that we had been looking for."
Surprised, with eyes wide at once a dozen pairs of eyes were directed towards the officer Gin who stood upright beside the princess.
Princess Song Zhu then told her to sit back and the two began to tell stories.
"According to Officer Gin's testimony, he was spying on one of your entourage, and he got lost."
"That brother is the man" said officer Gin pointing to one of the middle-aged men sitting in the troupe of warriors, "When I arrived at the descent of the mountain slope, I lost him when I was around the corner" he explained.
The princess nodded, then she asked the man that officer Gin had appointed, "Brother, where did you go back then?"
"Ah...who does he mean on the mountain slope of the edge of that small abyss?" he made sure, before continuing later, "Well at the support, I jumped up the tree and went north. Then go back east to get here."
"Ahh.." the princess nodded. He then turned to the attentive listening officer Gin, "Perwira Gin, would you go all the way to the east so that you would go ahead of him?"
"Hm..if that is so, we should only head east in the direction of the lost officer Gin." said the princess turned eastward, "Perwira Gin, is it still far enough from here?"
The officer also looked to the east and glanced to the distance, "It is still far enough, though not very far."
This information certainly pleased the warriors. They became excited and smiled widely, presumably the three main characters they had known this as well and preceded them to investigate there.
"Then, we should catch up with the chairman immediately" said a member of the Black Dragon.
The princess smiled looking at him, "That's what we want to do anyway. What if we travel together? Are we not now one goal?"
Get their hearts excited. With the princess and the general and the many troops that accompanied them, their hearts grew even bigger. Moreover, accompanied by a beautiful royal princess, admired by everyone and respected. How proud they are that the warriors can travel with the figure.
The swordsman turned his head towards an old man who seemed to be the most respected here. And it was true, he was among the kosen figures of the Black Dragon, even though his intelligence was far from Gu Ren, but Gu Ren himself was very respectful to him. And so on the way this time, that person was like being considered the leader after Gu Ren's disappearance.
The look directed at him was as if asking for approval. Instead of asking, lean more towards forcing. The old man chuckled for a moment then charged towards the princess, "Then, we are only able to obey what your majesty will."
"Good!" exclaimed the princess, What are you waiting for? We're leaving now!"
With overflowing vigor, they got up and immediately headed east guided directly by the Gin officers. Even so excited, they travel while singing.
It turned out that the princess was so friendly to them, unlike the other nobles who seemed to look down on anyone who had no standing like them.
Though this princess was the daughter of the emperor, a princess with the highest position. But he was without hesitation and stingy to throw a smile at everyone.
The well-respected middle-aged man, who was forty-two years old, happened to be walking next to the princess and was invited to a conversation by the woman, walking with a puffed up chest with a stout attitude. Proud not to play when it gets the attention of the princess who asked this is about the state of the martial world.
Many questions were asked and not a few that made him confused in the way of answers. But if he gets to this point, he simply replies, "Hope you please tell me this narrow knowledge, I am just a third-rate figure who doesn't really mean much." though he could answer briefly in the form of, "I don't know about it." but because he wanted to put his face, he was looking for a more convincing and memorable answer.
Other people just look at the behavior of single men who from birth to that old never once got a partner. That is why, once approached by a woman, the woman is the princess! Of course he is proud not to play.
"Sir, we've talked about many things, but I don't know your name yet. Who is this brave man of the Black Dragon?" ask the princess at one occasion with an engraved smile.
"Include me, this lowly one is called Khong Tiat. My nickname is the Lion of Dragon Mountain" he said while courting respect.
Thus, they were able to catch up to Gu Ren and the two other youths who were already in a state of being caught at the Midnight Wolf headquarters. Soon there will be an uproar because at the headquarters too, Sung Han and Yang Ruan are being held captive.
When Khong Tiat introduced the nickname, he was completely unaware that even Song Zhu's daughter was not aware that in the back row there were some people who were whispering full of astonishment.
"Now it's great, but since when did he get that nickname? Isn't he just the guardian of the dragon statue in our place?"
"Yes, you're right. That's the character of people falling in love."
"Hahaha.like young people..."
