The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 854 A Knight Of Imperial Throne

"I'm telling you, the Imperial Throne isn't something that you should be messing with. Even those very old folks never dared!" Anderson tried, for the last time, discourage the two. He actually didn't care about what they do, but he's included in this madness so he didn't have a choice but to try convince them.

"Your concern is greatly appreciated but we will still go on." Jin Rou rolled his eyes. He knew what Anderson was planning. Unfortunately, he couldn't win against Jin Rou.

"Then don't count me in on this craziness! You see, even my family cannot save me from those folks. There's no guarantee that I can come back alive." Anderson spoke, his eyes were watering a bit. It was cruel, he just wanted to rob them their money, but he never tried to kill them! What did he do to deserve this?

"I can guarantee you that you will be safe all around the trip. Isn't that enough?" Jin Rou pushed the man forward and said, "Now, get going. We don't have the whole time."

Anderson wanted to say more but he was scared witless by the eyes of the current Jin Rou. With no choice left, he took a deep breath and left it up to fate.

Upon reaching the borders of Imperial Throne, the trio could see a towering mansion covered with clouds. There was a dragon statue at the very top with its mouth open.

Imperial Throne. It was a super powerhouse with a mysterious background. No one knew their origins, even themselves knew a little about it. Having three Emperors, the throne had successfully turned the world upside down with their side side sweeping of realms. Even the other Emperors had to concede to them as they were on another level. But their high time wasn't long, as they suddenly faced with a nerve wracking calamity.

And the calamity was a taboo that had been buried down along with bad histories.

As the trio continued walking, a person in knight outfit suddenly appeared. He was carrying a spear by his right hand, looking ferocious. His face wasn't shown, too.

"This is Imperial Throne's territory and no one is allowed entry, regardless of their statuses." The knight said coldly. His words meant that there was no room for negotiation here, "Turn back or face punishment."

Anderson became terrified as he saw this. He abruptly stopped and looked at Jin Rou with scaredy cat eyes. He was in the front, so he would be the first to die in case the knight attack.

"Stop bullying him, will you?" Sylvianna sighed and took the initiative. This charade was getting boring, "We are here for an important reason."

"Important reason or not, we are not allowing outsiders entry." The knight firmly said, "You can tell it once we open our doors to others, but for now go back from whence you came."

Then he gripped the spear tightly as his words turned colder, "Consider this as my final warning."

The knight wasn't joking. He was already releasing his eminence to horrify the trio. While it was effective to Anderson, the duo weren't.

"It looks like we cannot talk this out." Sylvianna shook her head and said, "It's been a while since I move, it will be a nice practice to fight you."

It felt weird that a little girl was speaking as if she was an adult.

"Don't move too much, or this will hurt more." Sylvianna said and leapt towards the knight.

"You're seeking death!" The knight swung his spear around and thrusted it towards the enemy. The thrust had a doubled attack power, so its power was menacing.

"Boom!" Sylvianna's punch caused the spear to tremble tremendously. The knight noticed the warning signals in his head and was about to immediately retreat when the latter appeared in front of him.

"Ah!" The knight was taken aback and was about to fight back when his wrist was suddenly held by the little girl.

"You're slow." Sylvianna pushed the knight down and paled his wrist to immobilize him.

"Kill me if you dare." The knight didn't back down despite not being able to move, "My life doesn't worth that much, anyway."

"We won't kill you, but we have to use you to enter the throne." Jin Rou suddenly said while carrying Anderson by the back collar.

"Keep dreaming." The knight said, "I will never sell the throne out."

"You aren't selling the Imperial Throne out." Jin Rou corrected, "You are trying to save them."

"What do you mean...?" The knight asked when he suddenly was dawned a realization, "Don't tell me you know that?"

"How can I not?" Jin Rou smirked, "The world has full of mysterious things. People knowing about your secret is not impossible."

He had a point, but the question was how did he know it? Although the knight knew that there's no way you could block all wind, it was still virtually impossible to know this top secret without spending a scary amount of resources.

The Imperial Throne was very secretive nowadays because of a one certain reason.

A Calamity Scheme. A cursed one was coming their way and there's no way to prevent it from activating.

Unlike Grand Schemes, Calamity Schemes were very notorious for being the worst. When you heard this scheme, you should pray that you wouldn't be part of it as it's known for killing millions of people!

It was a sinister scheme to end something, in order to put the balance into normal. And, it's not a thing that could be controlled by the authority.

Meaning, it's decided by the Scheme Fate, entirely.

And the Imperial Throne was bound to face a Calamity Scheme for the very first time. They had been preparing for ages now, and they were hoping to fend it off despite the low chances.

After all, those who suffered the Calamity Scheme had always been totally wiped out.

"You could save the throne?" The knight felt he misheard it and laughed, "If even our three Emperors aren't confident, how can you be?"

The three Emperors of Imperial Throne were the strongest existences in their powerhouse. They held the pillars making the throne stand tall.
