"Anna, what do you think about this City?" Asked the Handsome man who was walking a few steps ahead of the woman named Anna.
His handsome face grew the looks from the crowd. Regardless of age or gender, everyone
couldn't help but admire his striking features. After all, they didn't see someone this handsome every day.
There were some whispers among the crowd, especially from the women and girls.
'Who is he?'
'I think he is a Royalty.'
'Maybe he is a Noble who is here to see His Majesty.'
Naturally, as Peak 5th-order cultivators, the crowd's whispers did not escape the duo's ears. Hearing what the crowd thought of him, put a small smile on the handsome man's face.
The man wore a long white robe with wide sleeves that flowed gracefully. The collar crossed over his chest, forming a neat "y" shape. Around his waist, a simple belt held the robe in place, which gave him a calm and composed appearance.
Aside from his handsome face, the reason he stood out in the crowd was his unique outfit, which is not usually seen in the Dying Isle Continent. But this was the Capital of the Mighty Istarin Empire, so nothing was too surprising to the people.
Also, his tall height helped him stand out from the crowd. The young handsome man stood at a height of 6 feet 7 inches tall.
The young man's name was James Anderson.
James was a lightly tanned, somewhat muscular man in his twenties. He was clean-shaven, with long black hair tied back in a ponytail.
"For once, this city is very crowded. It might be the most crowded city in the Six Continents." The woman named Anna replied calmly and composedly while following her senior.
"Compared to the other cities around the Six Continents that we have visited in the past, this city is way above average. It's in a league on its own."
"Very good observation!" James replied with a smile.
The woman named Anna was wearing a black Kimono. Compared to James, she was really short. She was about 5 feet 3 inches tall.
Her frame was quite slender, and she sported short black hair that reached her neck. Her bangs fell over her forehead, while her brown eyes contrasted with her red lips. She had a fair complexion.
"Alright, we can't just keep walking around this city," Anna replied, slightly annoyed. If James wasn't her senior, then she wouldn't have bothered to come to this place.
This place was like a barren wasteland compared to the Main Continent.
She did not like the fact that her cultivation was restricted to Peak 5th-order here.
Being suppressed made her feel suffocated.
"Why not?" James asked in a playful tone.
"We are here for a task: to see the Emperor. We are not here to waste time walking around this city." To her, this was completely useless. She wanted to finish her work as soon as possible and then return home.
"My dear Junior, have some patience."
"We cannot just demand to see the Emperor." Hearing this, Anna became silent.
"This is our territory or the Main Continent. We can't just demand what we want."
"You have to understand that the man whom we will be seeing is practically undefeatable in the Six Continent. If we upset him, we may not make it back alive."
Anna nodded her head in understanding.
"We have to follow the proper procedure and etiquette here."
"Sect Master specially instructed me not to get on his bad side."
"Our goal here is to recruit him to join our Sect. We don't want to make him dislike and hate our sect."
...
Scene Change
"Your Majesty, two people from the Main Continent are here to see you."
"Just sent away! I don't want to entertain them." Aditya was already busy with rebuilding the entire Central Region.
If this was just one or two cities, then he might not have been so busy with work. But this was the entire Central Region, which now had turned into one gigantic crater. Recovering everything from the crater won't be busy.
"Are you sure?"
"They said that they were from one of the strongest Sects in the Main Continent. Maybe sending them away like this would be a bad choice. After all, if not now, then one day in the future, we will have to step into the Main Continent."
Aditya looked outside of the window. From outside of the window, he could see the entire Azure City in the distance.
"They will come for me.....!!!" Spencer silently nodded.
Aditya turned around and looked at Spencer. "Listen, when this Kingdom was nothing, I fought against all the big powerhouses in this region and in this continent, and finally, we fought against the overlord of the Six Continent."
"Historically, although we've often been the underdog, we consistently rise to the top."
"If one day, I did decide to go to the Main Continent, which will happen sooner than later, whoever decides to be my enemy will only dig their grave."
"The Istarin Empire is the graveyard of its enemies."
"You really know how to make people confident!!" Spencer replied with a smile.
"Alright! Bring them in. I will give them 10 minutes of my time." Aditya was very curious to see them and learn what they wanted from him.
The last time someone from the Main Continent came, it did not end well for those parties. Aditya destroyed them and sent them back to the Main Continent with a warning. Since then, the people from that Sect never came back to trouble Aditya.
'I think I know what they want from me.' He stood up and left the meeting room for a quick break before the meeting began.
...
Scene Change
"Please wait here. His Majesty will arrive shortly." Watson was about to leave, but then he
stopped when he remembered something.
"Also, His Majesty has given 10 minutes for this meeting." Hearing this, even James felt humiliated. Feeling frustrated, he tightly clenched his fists.
In the Main Continent, they are the ones who make others wait.
They are the ones who give others time.
But now, they were forced to wait and were allocated little time for their meeting.
"Calm down! Did you forget that we are no longer on the Main Continent anymore?" This
time Anna said the same words that James told her when they were roaming in the City in a
sarcastic tone.
"This man is undefeatable. If we offend him, then we will not make it back alive."
James glared at Anna, which shut her up.
"Shut up!!"
Both of them sat on the couch.
A few maids came and served them tea and other snacks, but neither James nor Anna was
interested in eating.
After waiting for a few minutes, the Emperor finally showed up.
Outside of the meeting room, Aditya stopped to tidy his appearance.
'Seriously, Lilith needs to control herself.' In this short break, Lilith jumped on him.
'And I need to avoid being overly soft.' When she started removing his pants and said a few
seductive sentences, he easily folded. The little bit of hesitation that he had in him
completely disappeared.
In the end, she sucked him for about 10 minutes before reluctantly letting him leave.
Once he fixed his appearance, he entered the room.
This wasn't the Dragon Palace. When he had to meet people whom he didn't trust, he never brought them to the Dragon Palace. The Dragon Palace was a place of thousands of secrets. Aditya did not want any unwanted and foreign people to be inside his home.
Right now, they were in his old Mansion located at the heart of the Azure City.
As he entered, Anna and James stood up to greet him.
"Greetings....!!!" Both of them gave him a polite bow.
"Hello! Please sit down!!" Aditya gestured for them to sit.
But before he could take a seat, they had already settled down, leaning back comfortably
against the couch.
This was very rude.
If this were someone whom he knew or was close to, then he would have overlooked this kind
of action. But they were in the presence of the Emperor. It did not matter what their background was. In front of the Emperor, in his own Mansion, others had to show him respect. Not even the Emperor of the Echo Dominion Empire would do something like this.
Aditya did not show his dissatisfaction.
"Before we begin, can I ask which Sect you two belong to?" Aditya purposely asked the
question. He already knew the answer. Since they were being disrespectful, why bother being
polite?
James and Anna exchanged a glance. Both of them were further dissatisfied with Aditya.
First, they were dissatisfied with the fact that he was late to see them.
Second, he was expecting to be welcomed by the Prime Minister or the Emperor. But the one
who welcomed them at the entrance was the Emperor's servant.
Both of them knew that the Emperor was pretending not to know their Sect's name.
"Your Majesty, the name of our Sect is Chimera Shadow Sect!"
Really Thank you very much to all those who send support with valuable golden tickets. I hope
we can keep it up!!!
