"Wind Thieves??
He's a thief? Why would a thief alone be able to make the Yingtian City Governor worry about him so much?", Rakryan Purusoma was so curious.
"He stole the property of high officials. If caught, he did not hesitate to kill people who dared to block his steps. It is said that reportedly, a high-ranking official in the next town was savagely slaughtered by the Wind Thief for daring to try to stop the action.
Some high-scientific warriors have also tried to catch him, but the Wind Thief can escape easily because it has the science of lightening a tall body.
That's what I heard from the story of the merchant who just came from the next town" said the man as he glanced around him as if afraid his voice was heard by the Wind Thief.
Not yet had Rakryan Purusoma asked about the Wind Thief any further, a Yingtian city gate guard soldier shouted loudly towards Rakryan Purusoma and the person earlier.
"Hi don't swarm!
A neat line. If you do not comply, please undo your intention to enter Yingtian City, and leave here right now!"
Hearing the threat, the person who spoke to Rakryan Purusoma hurriedly entered the queue and Rakryan Purusoma immediately returned to the group of Panji Tejo Laksono. Outside the horse-drawn carriage by Panji Tejo Laksono, Reverend Wang Chun Yang, Huang Lung and Princess Song Zhao Meng, Rakryan Purusoma immediately conveyed what he had just heard.
Princess Song Zhao Meng or commonly known by the name Princess Meng Er immediately let out a cold snort hearing Rakryan Purusoma's words. Immediately he knocked on the door of the horse carriage twice and Chai Yuan rushed over to the horse carriage.
"Chai Yuan, please,
Immediately have the guards of Yingtian city gate open the way. My body is already sore sitting in the car".
Hearing the orders of Grand Miss Song aka Princess Meng Er, Chai Yuan immediately saluted this Princess Emperor Huizong and immediately met the soldiers of the city gate guards. After speaking for a while and showing the badge belonging to Princess Song Zhao Meng, the Yingtian City gate guards hurriedly approached the horse carriage that Princess Song Zhao Meng was riding in.
A gatekeeper who seemed to be the leader of the guard group respectfully, bowed his body while respecting the carriage in which Grand Miss Song was located.
"I apologize if Princess Meng's trip was interrupted by this checkup. We are just running errands" said the gatekeeper.
"I understand..
Open the road for us and report my arrival to Governor Yingtian", Princess Song Zhao Meng replied from behind the red curtain that covered the carriage window.
"I will do it immediately", the guard leader immediately saluted Princess Song Zhao Meng and rushed back and asked the people who were queuing in to pull over.
In that state, a shadow flashed rapidly down the horse carriage carrying various gifts given by Prabu Jayengrana to Emperor Huizong as a sign of friendship. His movements were so fast and light that no one noticed his presence.
The horse carriage immediately moved into the gates of Yingtian city. Along the way in, their arrival immediately became the center of attention of the residents of the city. As the horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of the Qing Governor's Palace, the shadow quickly moved to leave under the horse-drawn carriage unnoticed.
This black shadow immediately shot out quickly and stopped its steps behind the wall of a building located near the main entrance of the Qing Governor's Palace.
'Fortunately, I quickly ran away. Otherwise, my life is in danger. I didn't think there was such a great person as Reverend Wang Chun Yang in the front carriage', the black shadow's mind as he continued to stare towards the horse carriage that had begun to enter the palace of Governor Qing. After making sure that no one knew of his existence, the black shadow immediately shot towards a large house to hide for a while.
Yingtian Governor Qing Wei welcomed Princess Meng Er with Panji Tejo Laksono's entourage. As one of the rulers of the region, Qing Wei respected Princess Meng Er as was the custom that prevailed throughout the Song Empire. Moreover, as the daughter of His Highness Emperor Huizong, Princess Meng Er was so proficient in associating with the regional lords and officials in the Song Imperial Palace. Eunuch Tong Guan, the right-hand man of Emperor Song, paid tribute to this Emperor's daughter, among the other dozens of Emperor Huizong's sons and daughters. This was because Princess Meng Er was good at putting herself in and so smart at choosing comrades in securing her position as one of Emperor Huizong's daughters in the Song Empire's palace.
Unasked, Governor Qing explained the situation that was happening around Yingtian City. Therefore, Governor Qing Wei apologized to Princess Meng Er for the less pleasant welcome at the gate of Yingtian City.
"I believe you, Governor Qing..
I don't mind something less important like that. I hope that you will always place the interests of the people of Yingtian City like this" Princess Song Zhao Meng said with a faint smile.
"I understand, Princess Meng..
Hopefully in the future Princess Meng Er will always be healthy and long to continue to guide the people of the Song Empire", Governor Qing respected Princess Meng.
They were immediately placed in the honorary guest hall of the Qing Governor's Palace to rest. Panji Tejo Laksono and his friends also got a decent rest despite being slightly separated from Princess Song Zhao Meng's entourage.
Panji Tejo Laksono was sitting together with Luh Jingga and Huang Lung aka Princess Wanyan Lan when Reverend Wang Chun Yang came to them.
"Thee Swordsman, thee,
Honestly, I'm very interested in your amazing martial skills. If you may know, what is the name of martial arts that can make you disappear into a white fog like when you faced Xiao Xing the other day?", Reverend Wang Chun Yang stared at Panji Tejo Laksono.
"Master Wang,
This is the science that my father handed down which is one of the chosen warriors in our country. His name is Ajian Halimun. As the name implies, Ajian Halimun is changing the body of its user into something without a form like fog. My father said, Ajian Halimun comes from Tanah Sunda, which is in the western region of Jawadwipa Island", said Panji Tejo Laksono with a thin smile.
"So in the Land of Jawadwipa many people who have martial arts like this?", Reverend Wang Chun Yang was a little incredulous.
"of course..
Some of the kings of the vassal lands alone were even able to fight against hundreds of soldiers single-handedly and defeat them. As far as I, other than my father, there are still hundreds of other warriors who may be equal or slightly below my father in this matter ".
Hearing those words, Reverend Wang Chun Yang was slightly surprised. He even had trouble speaking in response to Panji Tejo Laksono's remark. Reverend Wang Chun Yang had not yet spoken, from behind a voice startling them.
"What is your true identity, Brother Thee??"
Everyone immediately turned their heads towards the source of the voice and it turned out that it was the voice of Princess Song Zhao Meng. Rakryan Purusoma who accompanied Princess Meng Er immediately saluted Emperor Huizong's daughter with a smile, "He is the future king of our country, Princess".
Everyone including Princess Meng Er, Huang Lung aka Princess Wanyan Lan, Chai Yuan and Reverend Wang Chun Yang were shocked because of Rakryan Purusoma's reply. Indeed, Rakryan Purusoma was not happy when he saw Panji Tejo Laksono get a different resting place from that occupied by Princess Song Zhao Meng, who was not happy, Huang Lung and Reverend Wang Chun Yang so he deliberately dismantled the identity of the prince.
"So this Big Brother Thee turned out to be a prince? Why are you keeping your identity a secret, brother?
You should have gotten a better place to live than where you are now", Princess Song Zhao Meng asked immediately.
"Daughter Meng Er, sir,
This place is enough for me to rest. Please, Princess, do not bother about small things like this", Panji Tejo Laksono said, showing off his deathly smile.
"But Brother Thee..."
"Mr Princess is over..
For this time let Prince Thee remain in this place. Next, we will find a more decent place for him", Chai Yuan said immediately.
As they were busy chatting, suddenly there was a noise outside the palace walls. Just so you know, the guest hall of honor is indeed close to the palace walls. A soldier of Princess Song Zhao Meng's bodyguard who happened to be on guard at the palace gate, immediately ran towards the guest hall of honor.
"Ah Sing, what happened outside the palace walls?", Princess Song Zhao Meng asked immediately.
"Please forgive the Princess,
Minister Chiang's house in the thief's basement. He said the thief moved quickly like a ghost" reported Princess Song Zhao Meng's bodyguard in honor.
Hearing the report, Panji Tejo Laksono immediately shot quickly over the walls of the Qing Governor's palace. Reverend Wang Chun Yang rushed to follow the young prince from Kadiri with Huang Lung and Luh Jingga.
From above the palace walls of Governor Qing, Panji Tejo Laksono's sharp eyes saw a shadow darting rapidly towards the east of the city. Seeing that Panji Tejo Laksono immediately raked Ajian Sepi Wind and darted rapidly towards the black shadow that was leaping on the roof of the building houses Yingtian City. Pastor Wang Chun Yang, Huang Lung and Luh Jingga were also in pursuit. But in 2 breaths, the Panji Tejo Laksono had already disappeared from their eyes.
The black shadow figure continued to dart rapidly towards the east of the city. As soon as he reached the destination, he immediately jumped down towards the courtyard of an old temple east of Yingtian City. But how surprised he was when he saw a strong man standing before him.
"Who are you?"
