Warlord of the Xili Kingdom
Bandit attack

The three young men were very pleased with the decision Lon Thong's grandfather had given them. They do not want to separate from each other because they feel they are very suitable. Overjoyed, they followed Zhaoling home.

Right now, they came home quickly like the wind blowing, nimble like a ninja.

Map ... tap .. wuuusshh ...

The movement is so fast that others will not notice their movement. Science like this is only possessed by high-level experts. Although Liu Wei and Yu Xuan had only studied for three years, they could both master the science of lightening the body and moving quickly like the wind. Characteristics of disciples from Shadow Dragon College.

Arriving at the destination, both Liu Wei and Yu Xuan were currently instantly speechless. The two clenched foreheads stared around the majestic building before him. Luckily, they were on the roof of this magnificent building and could not be seen by anyone.

Zhaoling who felt if his two friends did not follow in his footsteps immediately turned around. "What's wrong?" ask Zhaoling.

Liu Wei turned his head towards Yu Xuan, then stared fixedly at Zhaoling. "What are we going to do in the palace? Robbing? I've been converted!" seriously said.

Yu Xuan nodded with Liu Wei's words. The two did not understand why Zhaoling had brought him to the Palace. Are they going to loot the Kingdom's possessions to survive? Or, would Zhaoling take revenge on his enemy who turned out to be a member of the kingdom?

"No! Come on, follow me!" Zhaoling flat word. Although they were eager to ask, they remained silent.

Arriving in front of a door, Zhaoling knocked on the door while watching the surroundings. Shortly after, the door opened revealing a middle-aged woman who was still beautiful and youthful. The three rushed in after the door opened and instantly closed the door back.

Zhaoling knelt before the middle-aged woman with great respect. "The servant is back, Empress!"

Hearing that, Liu Wei and Yu Xuan both knelt down and saluted.

The roar of the Empress's face instantly changed with glazed eyes, staring fixedly at the young man before her who was kneeling. His hands stretched out to help him stand up. While continuing to look at Haru, the Empress immediately embraced and shed the longing that she had endured for ten years. "My son!"

Netra The two companions of Zhaoling turned their backs perfectly on hearing the Empress's call to Zhaoling. Whatwasthat? My son? Good Lord! So, Zhaoling is the Prince of this great Kingdom? the two looked at each other with mixed feelings.

"How are you, son? Don't you miss your mother?" the Empress asked amid her cries. "As long as you're there, I'm lonely. I don't know who to ask about your situation! It feels, the chest of the mother is tight as if there is a big stone pressing down. Without you, I can't live!" the Empress again.

Zhaoling stroked his mother's back affectionately, also longing deeply. "Don't talk like that, ma'am! I miss my mother too. But you know the reason?" said soothing. "Mom knows, I've mastered all the knowledge that grandfather taught me. So, I can protect Mom and Dad now!" clearly again.

The empress smiled and further tightened her embrace. Without them noticing, the two kneeling young men lowered their heads even more uneasy. Both of them had been disrespectful to Zhaoling by considering friends. They also disrespect Zhaoling as much as a Royal Prince. But, that was the reason Zhaoling did not tell his identity to the others for them to behave normally without any frills of the Prince.

"Why do you keep kneeling? Come on, let me introduce you to my mom!" said Zhaoling disperse the daydream of both.

"Sorry, Prince! We don't deserve that!" both are at the same time.

A sigh could be heard from Zhaoling's mouth. He immediately approached his two kneeling friends, then helped him up and immediately grabbed their shoulders. "What are you saying? I'm still Aling your best friend. How do you say you're inappropriate?"

The two looked at each other, then smiled happily. Apparently, all the princes of the kingdom were neither evil nor arrogant. The proof, Zhaoling still want to consider them friends. "Thank you, Prince!"

"Ckkp. Call me as you always call me!" ketus Zhaoling is upset.

"But you are a prince!" hisses are both bad.

"But I don't like it!" honest Zhaoling. "Even though I am Prince, you are my best friend. So, you guys should call me as you used to!" Zhaoling.

The two nodded in agreement to Zhaoling's request. Although hesitant, but still occasionally they call with the name Master or Prince. Zhaoling also explained why he hid his identity in the world. So that he can catch the mastermind behind his brother's death and also the terrible incident that almost took his life.

Zhaoling had a plan so that they could freely move around freely within the Palace. In addition to looking for the original villain, this is also his effort to protect his father and mother. Everyone is unbelievable. Be it family, relatives, even loyal followers. They could have betrayed a coveted throne.

Zhaoling and his two friends entered the palace starting from the military. By becoming a war soldier, Zhaoling and his two friends prove the worthiness that a combat-ready soldier must possess.

Since he often won battles, the Emperor finally issued a mandate containing the appointment of Zhaoling from a General to a great Commander. At the age of twenty-two, Zhaoling officially became the youngest great Commander in the entire Kingdom in the mainland region of the Jhajanan Continent.

Everyone bowed and respected him. It was only fitting that he became the ruler of the entire Jhajanan Continent. If one day he ascended the throne, there would be many who would support him as Emperor. In addition to warring experts, he was also wise in taking a stance to solve every problem. Only, his attitude was cold like the ice on the north pole when faced with others.

For the Third Prince's identity to still be hidden. Although Zhaoling was in the Palace as Commander, there would be a Third Prince whose face remained hidden. Though, he was Liu Wei or Yu Xuan disguised as Prince Zhaozu if they were required to be in the same place.

Zhaoling also did not expose his entire face in front of everyone. He wore a mask on his left face, saying that his face had been burned. So he couldn't take off the mask. It was only to trick the hiding enemies, and if one day he would have to open his face as the Third Prince again.

The battle took place in the city of Jeongna. The bandits fought back by massacring the weak and robbing the rich. They did not hesitate to kill the commoners who dared to fight them.

Soldiers from the camp were directly deployed to stop the violent actions of the bandits. They fought day and night for three days in a row. There was no development of the outcome of the battle, as the bandits were scheming. They lure all the soldiers to the famous Juoji mountain area with steep cliffs.

Arriving there, the bandits hurled huge stones at all the soldiers who were chasing them. As a result, all the soldiers who were chasing it were killed by stone.

There's no other way. Zhaoling must intervene. Looking at all the fallen soldiers on the battlefield, Zhaoling's blood boiled. He was eager to burn down the bandits by attacking his headquarters.

Zhaoling, Liu Wei and Yu Xuan went to crush the bandits. But, they did not bring any soldiers from the camp. They act secretly. But what they don't know is one thing. As it turned out, the bandits were led by someone he knew. That is, the old man who had been his Master Teacher in Shadow Dragon College.

"Master Luo?" All three were surprised by this fact. How could a great teacher of Silat College be the leader of a village troublemaker bandit? This is still a big thought that bothers all three.

They steal a little while sneaking around. As it turned out, Master Luo was expelled by the Supreme Master because she made a fatal mistake. His mistake was unforgivable and Grandpa Lon Thong threw him out disrespectfully.

A burning grudge in Master Luo's heart. He changed his true nature and massacred the commoners as a form of his anger.

"So, are we going to fight Master Luo?" asked Liu Wei seriously.

"Yes. Criminals must be exterminated from the face of this earth!" zhaoling was clear without hesitation.

"Then, get ready!" yu Xuan said giving a warning.

"Come, attack!" The three moved slashing at the necks of the bandits guarding their headquarters.

Slash ...slash ...

One by one they died without a scream from their mouths, so they did not invite others to come.

The three hid back when they heard footsteps approaching them. One of the bandits shouted for their flock, after seeing another comrade dead with a sword incision on his neck.

"There's intruders!" his shout invited all the bandits gathered inside the headquarters out immediately.

"Wine! We will be overwhelmed." Liu Wei whispered softly to Zhaoling and Yu Xuan.
