Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 206: I Will Always Protect Him
The group of the Spirit Palace had already left, the spies that entered the academy had also been cleared. It hasn't been a month since that day and the atmosphere is back to how it was.
In that period of time Zhang Yu was in the academy, precisely at the highest floor cultivation tower. However since his cultivation was already at the heavenly star level, he would not be able to rise to a higher level without passing the sky trial or the so-called heaven grace.
"You're finally out after weeks inside." An old man shook his waist while giving a meaningful look.
Zhang Yu simply smiled at him.
"During time did not meet Elder Zhuge Da. How are you doing?" zhang Yu asked in pleasantries.
Unfortunately Elder Zhuge Da was not so keen on answering him. He pushed Zhang Yu away from the door and looked inside the room number twenty.
Huh!
"Thank God," the sigh of relief Elder Zhuge Da confirmed that the lightning seeds were still functioning as usual.
"Chairman Zhuge Da?" Zhang Yu patted her on the shoulder from the outside while calling out to her.
Elder Zhuge Da also slowly closed the door of the room and looked back at Zhang Yu fixedly.
"It's strange because the lightning seeds are still fine" he said. That sentence was like accusing Zhang Yu of being the one who had always damaged the lightning seeds that were in the fifth floor space.
But Zhang Yu could not deny or deny it because it had indeed been done.
"Chairman, if there's nothing you want to say, I'll go."
Zhang Yu had not even raised his leg yet, Elder Zhuge Da held back his shoulder which was about to turn around.
"Eh, wait a minute." Elder Zhuge Da took out something from his clothing pocket.
A paper with some notes.
"You remember not if you still owe? Don't try to escape responsibility."
Zhang Yu's face suddenly changed upon hearing Elder Zhuge Da's words. Just as he wanted to say something, suddenly a disciple came in a hurry.
"Senior Zhang Yu, the head of the academy asked you to come to his residence." He did not even take a breath after he stopped running. He said it in a long pull.
"What?" Elder Zhuge Da frowned. "Why did the academy head call him?"
Zhang Yu ignored Elder Zhuge Da's question. He saw that this was a chance for him to leave the cultivation tower. So without saying much he greeted Elder Zhuge Da and left after saying goodbye.
"Chairman Zhuge Da, I'll be back next time. Bye bye!"
"Excession! He did it again!" Elder Zhuge Da could only cluck. But he was also curious as to why the head of the academy was suddenly looking for him.
"Hey, is there a problem going on?" elder Zhuge Da asked the previous disciple.
"Ti-don't know what business the head of the academy is calling Senior Zhang Yu. But maybe it was related to the plan of the arrival of the Imperial family today."
"What's? The Imperial Family is coming? Your Majesty and the Empress?"
The student nodded his head. "The news goes like that."
...
The morning changed by noon and this afternoon the atmosphere of the Imperial Academy was more bustling than usual. It happened due to the arrival of the imperial family, including the emperor, empress, queen and the seven princes.
Zhang Yu was already at his teacher's residence when the imperial entourage arrived. He immediately greeted as the emperor, empress and queen walked in the courtyard with his teacher.
"Greetings Your Majesty, Greetings Empress, Queen!"
Xuan Zou quickly recognized Zhang Yu in just one glance. He smiled then enthusiastically extended his hand.
"You're Zhang Yu right, long time no see and you've been much stronger."
Zhang Yu could only smile Awkwardly upon hearing the praise. Xuan Zou then walked into the residence with his teacher. Unexpectedly, he was pulled in after the man called out to him.
"Come with us, there's something we want to talk to you about."
Who wouldn't be curious to hear that. Zhang Yu immediately entered with them.
At least for some time the discussion only revolves on something that he does not understand. It was about the palace army and the border region. I don't know, Zhang Yu felt it was a little boring so didn't listen too much.
But suddenly the focus of this conversation turned to her which made her eyes instantly open perfectly.
"Zhang Yu, I should personally thank you very much. Not only did you kill Prime Minister Song Wejin, but you saved Yin'er." Xuan Zou momentarily paused with his sentence before taking a deep breath. "I've also heard all about you from Yin'er. How you protect her and so many other things."
Zhang Yu straightened his body before speaking. "Your Majesty need not be so condescending. Because as long as I'm still standing, nothing will be able to hurt Xuan Yin."
Xuan Zou remained silent for some time before smiling quite complacently. "good. I will take this as your promise to me. You have to look after her. Protect him and make him happy. My daughter has suffered enough so far. I'm a really bad dad."
There were a few words that Zhang Yu did not understand. But he chose silence as Xuan Zou spoke. He replied with a nod of his head, a sign of agreeing with the responsibility handed to him.
