The Demon God King's son-in-law
CHAPTER 226 | Help from the Underworld
Shen Long then took Wu Zhen to a garden behind the exquisite sect residence with a fish pond in the middle. Shen Long then took Wu Zhen to a gazebo at the end of the pond and invited him to sit down.
“There was what the sect leader suddenly came to visit me” asked Shen Long.
“Chairmen of the sect, forgive me for suddenly coming without informing you. Frankly, my arrival is on the orders of the Middle Emperor to attack your Sword of Hope sect for attacking the residence of the White Skull sect, said Wu Zhen
Shen Long smiled at him, he had known the intent of the arrival of sect head Wu Zhen even though he had not informed him. Yet Shen Long welcomed him well as he did not display any killing intent at all.
“Chairman Wu Zhen, back then I had begged respectfully to the White Skull sect to be allowed to practice in the Spirit Refining Pond. But we were just expelled so rudely that we fought back.” said Shen Long smiling
Seeing Shen Long saying truthfully, Wu Zhen then turned the conversation to something else.
“After this matter, the loyalty of our Mountain Sword sect will be doubted by the Middle Emperor. Ever since this time of chaos, the Middle Emperor had become transformed. He began to thirst for power by sending the generals of his army to occupy the territory of the Northern Empire and the Western Empire that is empty.” Wu Zhen said
Middle Emperor Zhong Jian was currently supported by the Eastern Empire and the Southern Empire. So the entire plain was currently already at the foot of Middle Emperor Zhong Jian.
With the existence of the Sword of Hope sect supported by Liu Kingdom and Ming Kingdom, the Middle Emperor would regard it as a thorn in the flesh in his territory.
“Central Emperor will not remain silent to see this, you should be careful” Wu Zhen advised Shen Long.
Shen Long contemplated the words of Wu Zhen, it turned out that the matter of the White Skull sect would allow it to trigger a war in the middle region between the Middle Empire and the Liu and Ming Kingdoms
“Where was the position of sect head Wu Zhen at the time of the war?” ask Shen Long directly.
Chairman Wu Zhen sighed, he pondered the matter carefully.
“I personally will not interfere if the war takes place in the Liu and Ming regions, which means the Emperor took the initiative to attack you. But if war happens in the territory of the Imperial Capital, then I must help the people and the Empire” said Wu Zhen
Shen Long smiled and understood Wu Zhen's position which turned out to be a virtuous hero.
“Good. I understand the choice of sect leader Wu Zhen. Let's drink to this friendship” Shen Long said as he poured a drink on Wu Zhen's glass.
They also raised a glass and drank together for the friendship of fellow fighters.
“Chairman Wu Zhen sect, has the chairman ever heard of Mo Zen or Mo Luo?” ask Shen Long back
“Mo Zen and Mo Luo?” wu Zhen asked while thinking of something.
Wu Zhen's face wrinkled at the thought of the two names, he had been more often in the residence of his sect and had never interfered with the world except in the event of chaos in the central imperial region.
“I've heard there are two new advisors of Emperor Zhong Jian in the Imperial capital known as the Mo brothers. But I don't know his full name. Is it possible that they are the two people that chairman Shen Long mentioned?” ask Wu Zhen
Shen Long frowned at Wu Zhen's reply. He was now convinced the two people he was looking for had actually influenced Middle Emperor Zhong Jian.
“Chairman Wu Zhen sect should be careful on both people” said Shen Long
Hearing Shen Long's words, Wu Zhen was slightly surprised. He then pondered back on the events in the Middle Empire. Indeed, since the presence of the two Mo advisors, the Middle Emperor began to aggressively and attack the other Empire.
“Shen Long sect chief, once again I apologize for interrupting your ceremony. I congratulate you on your marriage. The Sword Mountain Sect will welcome you with open arms when visiting us” said chairman Wu Zhen
“Thank you chairman Wu Zhen” said Shen Long.
Then Sword Mountain sect head Wu Zhen said goodbye to return to the Sword Mountain sect residence. He intended to investigate further about the two Mo advisers who were near the Middle Emperor.
After the departure of the people from the Sword Mountain sect, Shen Long gathered the entire leader from Liu Kingdom, Ming Kingdom along with the Sword Hope sect.
“Friends, based on a conversation with the sect head of Sword Mountain. We better prepare ourselves if Middle Emperor Zhong Jian intends to attack us” Shen Long said
All the leaders in the sect meeting hall were shocked to hear Shen Long's words. And after the explanation from Shen Long was likely triggered by the events of the White Skull sect, everyone began to notice it.
“Good. I agree with chairman Shen Long, we should be prepared for that possibility, said General Liu.
All the leaders in the meeting hall nodded in agreement.
“For that I leave it to General Liu and King Gu to organize the armies of the two kingdoms Liu and Ming to be on alert. The Sword of Hope Sect I leave it to the Holy Goddess to arrange. Me and Princess Shui will go to the underworld to seek help” Shen Long said next.
“Good chairman” sahut leaders in unison.
Princess Shui and Shen Long immediately set off towards the underworld through the portal at the residence of the Sword of Hope sect.
Hearing the arrival of Shen Long Emperor of the Underworld, all the Clan Kings of the underworld immediately gathered in the Earth Dragon Palace.
“Your Majesty the Emperor, welcome” said the Kings of all the clans of the underworld paying their respects to Shen Long.
Although they were shocked by Shen Long's current strength, yet their respect did not fade. They were completely loyal to Shen Long as Emperor of the Underworld.
“Friends, I beg for your help. We will likely face a war with the Middle Empire that is influenced by the Hell Realm Devils. So, I want you guys to go to the human world to help fight them” Shen Long said saluting the Clan Kings.
“Your Majesty, we will always be ready to help. His Majesty has saved and changed the underworld for the better, we will always be indebted to His Majesty” said the Water Dragon King began.
“Your Majesty, we are ready to help” in unison all the Clan Kings respect and answer Shen Long's request.
Shen Long and Princess Shui were relieved after the denizens of the underworld declared ready to help the Sword of Hope sect deal with the attacks from the Middle Empire.
Then they one by one ascended into the human world and gathered in the Sword of Hope sect to prepare for the attack from the Middle Empire on the territory of Liu Kingdom and Ming Kingdom.
“Daughter, now the last thing I have to do. Please take me to the mysterious western region to enter the Gates of Hell” Shen Long said
“What do you want to do?” princess Shui was surprised to hear that
“I want to meet the Demon God Emperor” said Shen Long
