The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 506 - Just A Mere Empire

Redboa could see Glorified's and Asner's similarities from the very start. Indeed, it was a direct descendant of the late emperor. Meaning, Glorified came from the Xero clan. Of course, only a few members knew this since Glorified was very secretive since he became famous.

Flashes of images passed through his mind. They trampled places together in the past, fought many emperors and won the battle. Their stages were filled with blood and bones to reach where they were. Unfortunately, they couldn't escape their enemies and ultimately died in their hands.

Anyway, Redboa was nothing but a strand of will right now just like Glorified, so he could only gave his treasures to the deserving.

Just when Asner and Jin Rou were about to leave, heavy footsteps could be heard. And then, hundreds to thousands of people entered the room.

"Who are you two? Introduce yourselves." General Xuazong asked with command, "Don't spout a bit of nonsense or your heads will roll down without you knowing."

Immediately a threat after entering? Jin Rou couldn't help but laugh but he didn't speak. He would let Asner do the introducing.

Asner was sweating and pale. He knew that they were discovered and there was no way to lie about this. After all, the famous general of Avion Empire was the one asking!

Repensine Ancient King was stupefied when he saw Asner being there. In fact, even Asner's father was pale. The situation got out of hand.

"Don't worry, I got you." Jin Rou whispered to Asner. He wanted the elf to stop worrying and just answer the question.

Asner took a deep breath and said, "I am Asner Xero of Elf Kingdom's Xero Clan. It is nice meeting you, Your Honor General Xuazong."

"So what are you doing here in advance?" The coldness of the general's tone didn't lessen, "As far I remembered, the empire instructed the kingdoms to remain idle and wait for our arrival. What is this, a plot that the Elf Kingdom created to monopolize the entire treasures here? That's audacious!"

Hearing this, the elves paled. How would they dare to plot against the empire? They weren't tired enough to seek for death.

"No, this is my own volition." Asner shook his head. Although he was afraid, he couldn't implicate the kingdom here, "I am responsible for my actions so the Elf Kingdom has nothing to do with me. And to answer Your Honor's another question, I am here to get this scroll I'm holding."

"Oh?" General Xuazong looked at the scroll and could see the vast power and ancientness of the item. He looked over at the treasures by the snake statue's side and saw that the scroll was the most precious item here. So of course, how could he let it go?, "Unfortunately, you can't have that unless I say so. If you are really sincere with your words, hand it over to me and I'll forgive this sin. Who knows? I may give it back to you later."

Asner shuddered. He knew that this would come, but this pressure was too much that he didn't know what to say. He stook steps backward with a paler expression.

"If you don't hand it over, I can immediately say that your kingdom is a traitor. And you should know what will happen when it turns to reality, right?" General Xuazong wasn't getting impatient and said, "If you want to be a sinner, then keep that item."

Repensine Ancient King sent a telepathy towards Asner and said, "Child, just give the item up for our sake. It isn't worth risking all of us just for a single item. I don't know what will you do with that, but it's too late when you're discovered."

The ancient king knew that the general wasn't joking around. If Asner angered him, they might face a total destruction in the future. A small kingdom like theirs wouldn't amount to much to the empire, so it was obvious that they wouldn't care about what would happen to them.

Asner's father was thinking the same. Right now, pride was useless. If they wanted to survive, they have to lower their heads and give up. It's not being a coward, it's called being flexible during different situations.

Seeing that Asner wasn't answering, General Xuazong almost cursed and said, "I'm telling you one last time, give it up or die."

Now, it was a blatant threat. Asner was about to say that he'd give it up when Jin Rou suddenly joined in.

"For a bulky man like you, you like to talk like a woman." Jin Rou mocked the general and said, "Asner is clearly the one who got this scroll and you're shamelessly trying to rob him in this daylight? Aren't you ashame of yourself?"

Everyone was surprised when they heard this mocking words against the general. This young man just slapped the general's face!

The general looked at Jin Rou and observed him. Afterwards, he sneered and said, "A Breaking Mortal has the audacity to insult me, one of the great generals? This is laughable."

"Yes, you are laughable. Stop praising yourself as if you're someone great. Just a mere ancient king. Can't reach the apex." Jin Rou smirked, "Now, go away if you want to live. This will be my first and last warning to you. Don't waste it."

Everyone was amazed of Jin Rou's boldness. They were feeling grudge about this general's haughtiness towards them so it was a good blast. However, the people from the Elf Kingdom almost lost their lives from this.

This young man was pulling their legs with him!

"Such bold words. Alright, not to mention me, do you think you can fight our empire alone with a mere Elf Kingdom as your backing? You must be dreaming." General Xuazong was angered, but he had a total control of his emotions. He would never let his emotions run amok and blind him. It was also one of the good points why he was an outstanding general right now.

"Your empire? Hah, just a mere empire. A bunch who will never reach the apex. It's not worth flaunting in my eyes." Jin Rou's words were very sharp, that it stabbed the general's pride so many times.
