LEGEND OF KING SYSTEM
357. EVIL SECT.

Ming Island is also entirely surrounded by a giant river called the Ming River.

“The Ming River surrounds Ming Island and countless tributaries stretch from it.

After Fan City, it took us about two days before we reached the Ming River.

After we cross it, we will be inside the border of Ming Island, ”

Butler Seven explained in a proud manner. He was rather proud since he had visited Ming Island before.

Wherever it is, discrimination will always exist. The people from Ming Island looked down on the people from the other thirty-five islands, he said,

just like how the people of Shenwu Empire looked down on the other regions of Shenwu Continent.

Every island in the Shenwu Empire was enormous, and many had never even come out of their island borders in their entire lives.

Butler Seven was not a martial expert, but he had entered Ming Island and was extremely proud of it.

Xiao Liong immediately flattered him, causing the Butler Seven to be extremely happy.

“True, Butler Seven, since the princess is one of the beautiful twins of the empire, did no one propose to her?” Xiao Liong asked curiously.

Butler Seven rolled his eyes. “Of course there have been some, but not many have done so since His Majesty's relationship with Crown Prince Ming Hao deteriorated.”

Butler Seven then carefully approached Xiao Liong's ear and softly whispered,

“Think. No matter how beautiful the princess is, it doesn't matter if you die. “

“Do you say that Crown Prince Ming Hao will attack His Majesty?”

“Sst! Don't nag. I don't know either, ”Butler Seven's face paled and he stopped talking.

At that moment, Butler Seven was summoned by someone, and Xiao Liong continued to drive the carriage.

Not long after, a scent blew, and Xiao Liong's expression changed, even though he continued to drive the wagon.

A girl was riding beside him with her horse. It was Yue’er, or rather, Yue Xianzi.

“Didn't we ever meet before?” he asked as he looked at Xiao Liong.

Xiao Liong smiled humbly. “I am only a coachman, so how can I have the honor to meet before?”

Yue Xianzi measured it and still felt that she was giving off a familiar vibe.

She relied on her female intuition, and felt that she had deliberately avoided her gaze. “Bless your head.”

Xiao Liong slowly looked up because he had no choice.

At that moment, Butler Seven arrived. “Little Seven, the coachman behind us is sick and unable to move. Go and change the place. “

A burden lifted from Xiao Liong's heart as he bowed to Yue Xianzi and then immediately left.

“Nona Yue’er, I hope Little Seven is not rude to you,” Butler Seven is trying to investigate what just happened.

Yue Xianzi smiled faintly. “Of course not. Butler Seven is too rough. I just felt like he looked familiar. “

“Oh, then I'll be sure. After all, Little Seven was a rural person who did not know our customs of the townspeople. “

“Butler Seven, is Little Seven always at Reverent King's house?”

“He joined us a few days ago. I accept it because he seems to have expertise in taming horses. “

Yue Xianzi nodded, smiled at the Butler Seven, then left.

Butler Seven took a deep breath, looking infatuated. “She's too fragrant. Too bad he's not for sale,

or I'll play with him even if I have to sell all of mine. Very regrettable..”.

Yue Xianzi was extremely beautiful, and many cultivators became infatuated with her back at Blackwater Lake.

Even if she had changed her appearance, she was still a top-class beauty and was naturally very attractive to people like the Butler Seven.

Joined a few days ago? Yue Xianzi looked towards Xiao Liong who was riding a different carriage.

Eyes sparkling. Is he another tryer? If so, then why did he appear to be not cultivating? Is he hiding it?

It would be terrifying if he could really hide his cultivation well.

He tried his best to match him up with all the experts he had met, but he finally got a result.

After all, she was the young mistress of the Frostmoon Sect and had met too many young elites. He naturally could not remember everything.

Even if Yue Xianzi could not remember Xiao Liong's true identity, she did not see any harm in investigating him.

Often, he looked for her and chatted with her, leaving Xiao Liong helpless.

He wondered if he should start thinking of ways to get rid of this girl.

However, trouble was not the only thing that Yue Xianzi brought to Xiao Liong.

For example, at this moment, Xiao Liong was currently right behind the private carriage and was only a few meters away from Ming Yan.

Yue Xianzi deliberately arranged this placement for him because Ming Yan treated him so well,

and he was even allowed to enter the private carriage. He eventually refused due to Ming Zhaoshu's existence and instead rode beside the carriage on horseback.

“Is there anyone else in your family?” Yue Xianzi asked Xiao Liong as she drove beside him.

Xiao Liong's face smirked. “No, there was an epidemic in my hometown, and they all died.”

“Oh ... How old are you this year?”

…

Inside the private carriage, Ming Yan occasionally glanced at astonishment. “Dad, it seems that Yue’er treated that coachman quite well.”

Ming Zhaoshu was reading the scroll and smiling at his daughter.

Maybe they were united by fate.

Ming Yan did not really understand what was going on between the two and glanced at Xiao Liong again.

He blinked; this man seemed to be quite familiar for some reason.

At this point, Xiao Liong was already itching to cover Yue Xianzi's mouth with smelly socks.

They were right next to the private carriage with Ming Zhaoshu inside! Xiao Liong would be caught once he answered wrongly;

However, these women continued to ask questions as if they were on a blind date.

He was very nosy, but he could not ignore it. That's sickening.

“The way you drive a cart seems a bit strange. You don't look like an ordinary person.

Have you ever cultivated before? ” Yue Xianzi asked and looked at Xiao Liong.

Xiao Liong's heart fell. At that moment, Tang Si happened to come and said, “Your Majesty, we have reached the Ming River. The boat was prepared for us before. “

“No need to rush. Yue’er, repeat the question again, “Ming Zhaoshu's voice sounded from inside the private carriage.

At that moment, Tang Si carefully also looked at Xiao Liong.

Xiao Liong's fingers twitched, and Yue Xianzi repeated her words.

Everyone nearby turned to look at Xiao Liong.

Xiao Liong calmly replied, “I haven't cultivated yet. Everything I learned was from Qianshan village.

His Majesty had passed through the village once, and his entourage demonstrated some forms to the villagers there, which I learned a little later. ”

The curtain of the private carriage was pulled back, and Ming Zhaoshu looked at Xiao Liong. She's shocked. “You've been to Qianshan village?”

Xiao Liong bowed respectfully. “Yes, I passed it in my youth. I learned a few moves under the old tree to better protect myself. “

“What did you learn? Show the form you are learning. ” Ming Zhaoshu seems rather interested in Xiao Liong's chance encounter.

Xiao Liong did not dare to resist and directly displayed it in the open.

It was only three simple movements that seemed very ordinary, but Ming Zhaoshu wore a reminiscing expression as he looked.

This form had been created during Ming Zhaoshu's youth when he collaborated with Ming Zhaotian.

And now, it had spread even to that small village. Ming Zhaoshu looked at Xiao Liong with a much warmer gaze after he finished demonstrating his form.

“Determination is certain that you can learn these forms. After His Majesty's birthday celebration, you can remain within my household. “

Xiao Liong gratefully replied, “Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for his offer.”

Ming Zhaoshu nodded in satisfaction. “Let's cross the Ming River now.”

Ming Yan stared intently at Xiao Liong with pursed lips before opening the curtain.

Yue Xianzi frowned. This person is unlikely to be a trial participant, though,

because why would he know about that trivial matter if it were so? Forget it, this is a waste of time.

He thought about the matter a little more, but then shook his head because he was no longer interested in Xiao Liong.

Xiao Liong relaxed. Fortunately, Wu Xia had seen Crown Prince Ming Hao practice and demonstrate those forms for Ming Zhaotian before.

It was practically seeing the monkey, the monkey did; fortunately, he somehow managed to deceive the Honorable King.

If not for this, then he had no other way to end Yue Xianzi's interference.

He looked at her and decided that she should be placed in her place someday.

He raised his head, his face completely drained of blood.

An elder walked in and looked at him. “What relationship do you have with Astral-10’s Xiao Liong?”

He looked at the older one and shuddered. "Nothing."

“Why did you help him?”

"Because he saved me."

“You should be aware that the Daynight clan will not allow marriage with outsiders.”

“This junior has no such relationship with Xiao Liong. We've only met three times. ”

“Alright, I'll trust you. Still, he is willing to tell us the hidden location of the Third Nightking to save you, he said,

so he didn't completely lose his feelings for you. From today onwards, you are my disciple, Nightking Yuanjing. “

He raised his head, shocked. Third Nightking.

His lips lifted amusedly. “That's right, he gave Third Nightking information to me in return for your release, and I agree.”

Zhuo Daynight was stunned.

Third Night…

The Ming River was vast, and its surface glittered with light. It was divided in several channels, and each housed a boat made to transport people and goods.

The Reverend King's household alone used five channels.

The military cleared the way as they floated towards the gate of Ming Island: Antai City.

As the boat crossed the oscillating river, Xiao Liong walked across the deck.

Surprisingly, it was extremely smooth and steady even while hovering above the water.

Xiao Liong was a coachman and was technically not important enough to be on the same ship as His Majesty King Ming Zhaoshu.

However, since it required manual labor to move some valuable items onto the ship, Xiao Liong had the honor of being chosen for the task.

Butler Seven's attitude towards Xiao Liong had changed completely after he demonstrated that basic form to Ming Zhaoshu.

From initially appreciating Xiao Liong, being friendly, the Butler Seven now even slightly licked towards Xiao Liong.

Xiao Liong found it funny; this was an advantage of authority. Ming Zhaoshu only showed a hint of kindness to

Xiao Liong's,

but that small amount was enough to make many people in the house try to get into Xiao Liong's good book.

Even the butler did the same! Authority is a good thing to have.

Just as the ship was about to depart, a group of gigantic beast riders stormed over, kicking a cloud of dust behind them.

“Student Bei Qing requests a meeting with the Honorable King.” Xiao Liong and the others turned to look at a young scholar.

He was handsome, wearing a white dress, and carrying a fan as he smiled gently to the people on board.

Bei Qing's? Xiao Liong vaguely remembered him as the son of someone important.

“So his nephew Bei.” Ming Zhaoshu walked out and smiled warmly at the man.

He raised his hand, and a giant board was laid. “If Bei's nephew also goes to the capital, then we can travel together.”

The scholar, Bei Qing, was very pleased and bowed. “Thank you, Your Highness.” He then got into the boat without thinking twice.

At the other end of the ship, Ming Yan frowned inside the luxurious cabin, looking rather displeased.

Princess, what's wrong? Yue Xianzi asked.

“Bei Qing this once asked my father to marry me, but I don't like it.”

“Why not? You shouldn't have interacted much with the outside world since you were young, right? ”

Ming Yan tightly grasped his teacup and tightly pursed his lips.

“He has a bad reputation he often visits the red light district!”

Yue Xianzi nodded wisely. “Princess, if that is the case, then do not go out to avoid colliding with such a person.”

Ming Yan agreed and turned to face the river. Suddenly, his eyes were attracted to some movement in the river.

“Yue’er, look there. Why are there branches in the river? ”

Yue Xianzi's expression immediately changed. “Not good! There's a killer underwater! ”

Right at that moment, the entire boat swayed as wave after wave of energy swept out from below

surface of the river and perforate the bottom of the boat. White shock waves even exploded onto the deck of the ship, sweeping out forcefully.

Ming Zhaoshu's face changed; he was too careless. He moved his right foot, causing a majestic martial power to come out from his feet and directly attack to the bottom of the river.

There were unheard echoes as the entire Ming River began to boil.

At that moment, Ming Zhaoshu seemed to be a god with complete control over the area nearby.

The air became heavy, and even Bei Qing nearly fainted from that sight.

The surface of the river quickly reddened, and corpses floated from below like dead faces.

They had all perished without exception with just one strike. Ming Zhaoshu was a Martial Emperor and could crush all opponents at this time.

Xiao Liong looked at the river and saw that there were only about a dozen corpses, though,

even though they were scattered everywhere, and there was even one in the next channel.

They seemed to want to destroy the boat, but they were unable to do it in time because they had underestimated the strength of Ming Zhaoshu.

For a powerhouse like the Reverent King, numbers were meaningless.

“Quickly, go and check if there are any more members of the evil sect in other channels,” orders Ming Zhaoshu.

The surrounding troops immediately acted and sealed off the Ming River. Even the Antai City troops came out to investigate.

Bei Qing propped himself up on the fence and heaved a sigh of relief. He thought he was going to perish; the pressure was too intense for him to bear.

“Nephew, are you okay?” Ming Zhaoshu looked at the scholar with concern.

Bei Qing bowed gracefully. “With His Majesty around, commoners like this are just ants. I'm fine.”

He then suddenly added, “That's right, Your Majesty, where is the princess? Is she okay? ”

Ming Zhaoshu shook his head. “Yan’er is fine, so don't worry. I'll arrange for someone to take you to your place where you can rest. ”

Bei Qing nodded, his face still slightly pale.

He was actually not too weak and was actually a Martial King himself.

He had used countless resources to climb to the 132nd position on the Tempering List.

However, he was too experienced and did not fight much throughout his life.

Being that close to Martial Emperor and experiencing their own strength was something that was difficult for him to adapt to.

Ming Yan's face was also slightly pale within his cabin, where he was comforted by Yue Xianzi. “Princess, don't worry. Everything is good.”

Ming Yan nodded, although he still felt fear remaining in his heart. “Thank you, Yue’er. If it wasn't for you, I'd be in danger. “

Yue Xianzi smiled brightly. “If not for the princess, Yue’er will be sold to prostitution. Please don't be polite, because Yue’er's life is yours. “

Ming Yan forced a smile on his face and clenched Yue Xianzi's hand even harder.

The ship was lightly damaged by the ambush, but there was no major setback since Ming Zhaoshu acted so quickly, preventing the attackers from causing any real damage.

It took them only half a day to repair the boat before they could cross the river peacefully.

“This evil sect is endless, and they will do anything. They even dared to try to kill His Majesty. ”

Butler Seven was still a bit nervous about the entire incident as he was almost killed by the energy wave.

Xiao Liong acted as if he was also frightened. “Bu- Butler Seven, how do you know that they are from the evil sect?”

Butler Seven angrily replied, “If it wasn't them, who else? A thousand years ago, the strongest person of the empire, Lord Ming Taizhong, established his dynasty and removed all sects.

Since then, there were no more sects in the entire continent, and all the battle and cultivation techniques were handed over to the empire.

Although Lord Ming Taizhong perished along with the foreign invaders, His Majesty, the current emperor, is even stronger than the previous one.

Everyone around here recognized his superiority, and no one dared to go against the empire.

Only the evil sects would continue to hide like rats and still cause destruction. “

“I heard there is a Demon Hunters Society that specializes in dealing with evil sects, right?” Xiao Liong was curious.

Butler Seven nodded. “That's true, but I don't know what the job of the Demon Hunters is.

They had yet to exterminate the few remaining members of this evil sect even after so many years. How useless! “

Xiao Liong's eyes twinkled. Inutile? Not necessarily ... The Demon Hunt Society would be disbanded once they fulfilled their purpose.

Once the evil sect is completely exterminated, there will be no use for the Demon Hunters anymore.

Therefore, they would never work all out in their duties unless they were truly fools.
