The Night King: The Asura
Ch-08's chat. Two Envoys
Somewhere outside the imperial city.
Second prince Wu Lian and his loyal bodyguard appear to be in the depths of the forest quite far from the imperial city, the two of them were waiting for the arrival of someone who would later help with the plan that the second prince had devised.
"Where is the person you mean? Why is he not here yet? Don't you know I can't linger outside the imperial city?" asked Wu Lian who was getting annoyed.
"Please be patient, your Majesty, I'm sure the man will be here soon" replied his bodyguard.
"Alright, I will wait a little while longer, but if he is not a really strong cultivator, then you will I punish for taking me to this place" Wu Lian said.
"The servant dares to guarantee that his majesty will not be disappointed, and I am sure that this man will make a noble plan successful."
"Hopefully!"
Not long after, in front of the two of them suddenly appeared an old man, from his body emanated an aura of extremely strong power, even the aura made Wu Lian difficult to breathe, and not only that, the aura of that power had also managed to suppress his body and due to the heavy pressure, it was almost as if Wu Lian was made to kneel because of it.
"Who are you?" ask Wu Lian.
"Your highness, he is the one whom I mean" replied the bodyguard.
Although she was still under immense pressure of intimidation, Wu Lian could still smile happily, as she was sure that this plan would not fail, "Who are you and where are you from?" ask Wu Lian.
"People know me as the master of the shadow, and I am not one to settle in one place" replied the old man.
"Shadow ruler? Then what's your real name?"
"Gong Bei"
"Mr Gong Bei, I want you to do something for me" Wu Lian said, then told Gong Bei of the plan.
In that plan, Wu Lian wanted Gong Bei to mess up at the tournament event to be held in a few more days, he also said that his main target was a person named Lin Feng, who was the one who was Lin Feng, and not to forget he also explained Lin Feng's traits to Gong Bei so that he didn't get the wrong target.
Gong Bei smiled happily when she heard the plan that the second prince had drawn up, how not? From the beginning he had planned to mess up at the turneman event later, but the main target was not someone said by the second prince, but the father of the second prince, the emperor Wu.
"Hows it? Are you willing to do it?" ask Wu Lian.
"Hahahaha, you take it easy, your majesty, in this Wu empire there is no cultivator who can match my strength, so it is impossible that I cannot do it" Gong Bei replied.
"Good, then I will wait for your arrival in the imperial city" Wu Lian said, then gave Gong Bei a badge, "Use this badge so that you can enter the imperial city without having to pass the examination" he continued.
"Thank you, your honor" said Gong Bei.
After finishing his affairs there, Wu Lian then invited his bodyguards to immediately return to the imperial city, because in addition to not wanting to linger outside the city, it was not for long, he also did not want his father and brother to know what he was doing.
At the same time.
"Second prince, it looks like you've made a very big mistake" muttered Lin Feng, who had seen and heard their conversation since.
And sure enough, the suspicion that Lin Feng felt was indeed true, because the second prince was indeed planning to teach him a lesson, but Lin Feng did not pay much heed to the right, because his biggest problem was, like, that, this second prince's plan would instead bring destruction to the Wu empire.
"Well" Lin Feng let out a long sigh, "Because I've already been involved, I'd better help them resolve this matter to the fullest" he murmured.
Actually Lin Feng could have ignored this matter and pretended not to know anything, but since the second prince had already implicated himself into this matter, then it would not be good for him to not take part in it, especially now that his bloodlust had started to appear again.
"Second prince, if it wasn't for your father and brother, I might have killed you since we fought at the auction."

A few days later.
The atmosphere of the imperial city of Wu seemed to be much more bustling than before, people from nearby cities continued to arrive with the same goal, which was to watch this tournament between cultivators throughout the Wu empire.
At present, the people who have come first seem to start to meet the place where the tournament is held, both the participants and the audience, they are already in their respective places, he said, so did the emperor as well as the kings of the entire city in the territory of the Wu empire.
"The way of the tournament this time around seems much more festive than before, is this because of the Tianzhu sect?"
"It seems that it is, because according to the information circulating, the winner of the tournament this time will be appointed as a disciple of the sect."
The Tianzhu Sect was a very famous sect in this Xuanwu mainland, especially in the Wu empire, because the location of the sect was not too far from the territory of the Wu empire, moreover, it was, the Tianzhu Sect was also famous for having many strong cultivators.
In fact, the sect leader was an early two-star Heaven God realm cultivator, not to mention by the overwhelming number of their disciples, thus, this Tianzhu sect was not only famous for its strength alone, not to mention by the sheer number of their disciples, but it was also famous for being considered the biggest sect in this Xuanwu mainland.
At the cultivator tournament held this time, the Tianzhu sect was indeed intentional to take part in it, because in addition to wanting to recruit talented disciples, they also wanted to expand the name of their sect, as well, in order to be known by everyone, especially in the Wu empire.
When everyone was talking about the prowess of the Tianzhu sect, in the sky there suddenly appeared two people with an extremely powerful aura of strength, the two people were none other than the Tianzhu sect envoys who would witness the course of the tournament.
"It looks like we came on time" said one of them, then both got off and landed in the middle of the tournament arena.
At the same time, Emperor Wu and the kings moved from their seats and immediately approached the two men, "Welcome, are you the envoys from the Tianzhu sect?" ask emperor Wu.
"Yes, I am Hao Tian and this is my younger brother-in-law, Fang Yi."
Otherside.
"Not bad, they sent two Mortal realm cultivators to come here, it seems like this Tianzhu sect is not playing around in showing its arrogance" said Lin Feng.
"Young Master, I suggest you don't look for trouble with them, because as far as I know, this Tianzhu sect is a very powerful sect" said Master Li.
"really? I was just wondering how strong the sect really was."
Mr. Li could only smile as he shook his head, "Strong people are indeed very different" he said inwardly.
Although up until now Mr. Li had not known exactly the level of strength of Lin Feng, but he was very sure that the strength of the young man was at least in the land of Gods or higher, because otherwise, he was, there was no way Lin Feng could see one's cultivation level with just a single glance.
