Chapter 824 - A Love Letter



Chapter 824: A Love Letter

Three days later, there was finally news of Bi Lu.

She was not in the Emerald Shire at the moment, but it was said that she had gone to a place called Tai Lun Continent. The secret report mentioned that because of collusion with evil forces, the King of Tai Lun was arrested by the Blood Red Prison Warden Tantai Tu Mie of the Central Palace, where he was then escorted to the Divine Punishment Platform to be executed. Along with King Tai Lun’s nine relatives and friends, they were all brought to the Resentment Prison of the Central Palace and made atonement with torturous penance.

“He was wronged. In the Southern Heaven Realm, even a three-year-old child knows that King Tai Lun is a good person.” Bao Gu sighed.

“Is that so?” Luo Hua’s interest was suddenly piqued.

“Mistress Luo Hua, Bao Gu is indeed correct. I dare not say anything about other kings, but King Tai Lun was definitely a good man. Under King Tai Lun’s sovereign, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, void of the presence of thieves and burglary. The phenomenon of the weak and the strong— which could be seen everywhere in the Heaven Realm, rarely ever occurred there. Even those powerful beasts who occupied a portion of the continent have signed agreements with King Tai Lun to obey the King to not easily disturb the people…Tai Lun Continent, in the minds of many, simply existed like a dream… The only drawback was that most of the places were located in plateau areas above tens of thousands of meters, where the force of gravity was at the very least ten times stronger than normal. Hence, it was not a place where ordinary people could adapt to. In addition, it was relatively cold. Otherwise, there would have been so many people who would have moved to the land of Tai Lun!” Niu Gen explained in detail.

“So, the fact about King Tai Lun colluding with evil forces and was arrested by the Central Palace— it was wrongfully accused?” Luo Hua asked.

“It must have been an unjust accusation!” Bao Gu and Niu Gen nodded incomparably.

“Then why does the Central Palace want to publicly exterminate such a king who had won the hearts of the people?” Yue Yang felt that things were not that simple. The people in the Central Palace were not fools— without evidence, it would definitely not work to execute King Tai Lun in public.

If there was no evidence, they could have handled it secretly. So why was it an open execution, where people were even invited to spectate?

Since they had the confidence to make it public, it must’ve meant they had some form of evidence in their hands.

Regardless of whether or not the evidence was real.

However, at least one thing was certain. The evidence was definitely more than sufficient to ‘pin’ King Tai Lun as colluding with the evil forces.

Bao Gu and Niu Gen couldn’t answer Yue Yang’s question. They owned smaller positions and had only the most basic judgement abilities. It was too difficult for them to deduce the inner plot of the story like their superior.

Yue Yang waited for a long while before he received another piece of information, which was personally collected by Yue Yang’s number one secret agent, Yan Zao.

Yan Zao had another task. He had no time to rush back to Nightless City to present his reports, but with the help of their unique underground thieves organization, they brought back the information that Yue Yang needed. According to Yan Zao’s intelligence report, King of Tuoye Mo Ye Changqing, the pseudo-Jade Lord Pang Pei along with his strongest underling, Yu Qian Jun, have already traveled to the Tai Lun Continent. The most important thing was that Yan Zao heard the Clown had already taken the Clown Mercenary Group and they were advancing towards the Tai Lun Continent… At present, among the current surrounding ruling monarchs, or the more well-known forces, only the Lionheart King remained at a standstill.

A man’s wealth is his own ruin by causing the greed of others [1].

TL note: [1] Its general meaning is something along the lines of someone seemingly innocent could get in trouble by others’ actions or desires. The actual translation was vague but pretty to the point, ‘The people were not guilty, their fault was from hiding the jade’ etc.

Regarding King Tai Lun’s conviction, Yue Yang guessed that King Tai Lun had some treasures or had discovered some secrets. Therefore the warden of Central Palace had wanted to acquire whatever it was. Since he had refused, this had led to the said outcome..

Or, this secret was always desired by the Central Palace, but for some reason King Tai Lun refused to offer it.

If the Clown, King Tuoye, and the pseudo-Jade Lord did not actively ‘spectate’ the execution of King Tai Lun, then Yue Yang would not be too sure. Looking at the current situation, he felt that there was at least a small possibility of it occurring. Moreover, Yue Yang also speculated that this might involve a treasure which could not be found by only one person. Otherwise, the Central Palace wouldn’t publicly execute King Tai Lun as they would have secretly killed him long ago.

“Let’s take a look as well!” City Mistress Luo Hua felt that whether or not there was treasure involved, this was the best opportunity to stir up trouble in the Southern Heaven Realm.

“If a warden in the Central Palace dies…” Yue Yang’s thoughts were now all over the place. If he could kill the warden named Tantai Tu Mie, then the Central Palace would most definitely be furious. This would probably cause the Southern Heaven Realm to plummet into chaos.

“Third Young Master, it would be a bit difficult to kill Tantai Tu Mie.” Niu Gen was afraid of Yue Yang’s anger so he weakly explained, “The power of Tantai Tu Mie was even known to us and other lower ranks. That Blood Red Prison Warden in particular, was a High Ranker only under the ranks of the three main Palace Masters in the entire Central Palace. He was as famous as the Light Palace Master Zhong Hua. It was said that he possessed an immortal body, and at the same time he owned the sacred weapon, the ‘God-Slaying Blade’. In his hands, King-level Heaven Rankers could be eliminated in a matter of seconds. It would not be the first time he executed a King-level Heaven Rank in the Southern Heaven Realm, and I have never heard of anyone who could escape from his grasp. The two chief executives under his rank, Heavenly Ghost and Heavenly Demon, even possessed strengths as high as Level 6 of the Heaven Rank.”

“How did you know?” Yue Yang asked strangely.

“Once, Captain Wild Bull managed to snatch a rare treasure and was about to take us to celebrate. Who knew that in the middle of the night, the pseudo-lord Pang Pei of the Emerald Shire would quickly grab it and order Captain Wild Bull to return the treasure immediately. It was said that the treasure belonged to a relative of the Heavenly Ghost. The Heavenly Ghost then went to find the Lionheart King, and the king couldn’t reject him. In addition to personally compensating the Heavenly Ghost with a large heap of treasured items, he even had Pang Pei immediately return the treasure stolen by Wild Bull. Later, I heard Captain Wild Bull speak of it once more with a lingering fear. Because we lost our fortune that time, it left a deep impression and remained engraved in my heart.” Niu Gen’s memory was very good and he usually paid attention to collecting important information.

“This is good news.” Yue Yang patted Niu Gen on the shoulder to convey his praise.

Actually, Yue Yang didn’t completely believe this information.

If the Heavenly Ghost and the Heavenly Demon truly only had the strength of the Level 6 Heaven Rank, the Lionheart King would definitely not bow his head.

Except for the possibility of the Lionheart King hiding his strength, there was another possibility— that is, the Heavenly Demon and the Heavenly Ghost were stronger than the rumoured Level 6 Heaven Rank

As for the prison warden Tantai Tu Mie, there was nothing more to say. He ranked only under the three great Palace Masters, he was as famous as the Palace Master Zhong Hua, and in his hands was a sacred artifact—how awesome!

The Heaven Realm was big, yet how many among them had artifacts?

Palace of Light Master Zhong Hua; Yue Yang suspected that it was this person who drove tens of thousands of fallen warriors into the dark world.

Except for Ji Wu Ri, the strongest among the Rankers Yue Yang had seen in the Heaven Realm was Zhong Hua, who was ‘Godlike’ and basking in surging brilliance!

If Tantai Tu Mie was equally as powerful as Zhong Hua, Yue Yang predicted that it would be a bit difficult to handle the Blood Red Prison Warden on his own… However, a living person can’t be killed in one breath [2]; If Yue Yang couldn’t win it alone, he could use the help of others. He could ask for Zhi Zun and the Night Empress’s help when deemed necessary. There was even a chance he could ask help from Ming Yue Guang.

TL note: [2] It means consistency is key or in this case, there is strength in numbers. One doesn’t accomplish a large feat overnight.

At least, it wouldn’t be bad to write a letter to convey his feelings in the relationship.

“I miss you, my beautiful Yue Guang. It is said that the warden of the Central Palace has an artifact, and I am going to use it as one of the betrothal gifts. I wonder if Yue Guang Beauty is willing to help this kid realize his wish? Tai Lun Continent, I’ll be waiting for you. It’s a date!”

Student Yue Yang wrote a love letter in heavenly runes, specially packed it inside a brocade box, went to the Mercenary Guild in person, and sent it to Ming Yue Guang, one of the 3 leaders in the Western Heaven Realm.

He’s written a few letters before, but this time it was a bit different.

This time Yue Yang made it clear that he wanted to cooperate.

For this important letter, he believed that the Mercenary Guild will do their utmost best to deliver the brocade box as soon as possible.

Whether or not Ming Yue Guang will appear in the Tai Lun Continent and work with Yue Yang to kill Tantai Tu Mie, it was not the result that Yue Yang wanted. Moreover, Yue Yang also had a feeling that it would be somewhat impossible to kill Tantai Tu Mie in the Tai Lun Continent. It was absolutely necessary to wait for that guy to completely let down his guard before it would be possible to achieve this.

There was no rush to join forces this time. As long as Ming Yue Guang agrees, they can join forces anytime.

Besides, Yue Yang was unsure of how much power Ming Yue Guang had recovered. How much power could she exert without regaining her peak strength?

“Are you sure she will agree?” Luo Hua City Mistress felt that the boy’s love letter was too short. She doesn’t mention whether there was any actual sincerity in it, yet there were only a few lines. No matter what, shouldn’t there be at least a few cheesy pages, densely packed with tens of thousands of words? Otherwise, how could it move Ming Yue Guang’s heart?

“She is alone and helpless now, without anyone to join forces with. I am giving her charcoal in the snow [3]!” Student Yue Yang claimed that he was a great person.

TL note: [3] pretty straightforward, this phrase means ‘offering help when one needs it the most or when they’re in trouble’.

“I’m not feeling optimistic about this at all!” The words of City Mistress Luo Hua were straightforward and she was not afraid of hurting Yue Yang’s heart.

“If a letter doesn’t do the trick, I’ll write a few more letters. Perseverance is key, I will surely succeed.” Student Yue Yang was deeply impressed by the true meaning of picking up girls, exerting his skills of being absolutely shameless in every way.

“I think that this will only have a counterproductive effect…” City Mistress Luo Hua laughed. If a few letters could get the help of a Heaven Realm Leader, why did the Prison Emperor fight so hard back then? Of course, Yue Yang also had his reasons, how would he know if he didn’t try? He felt that the biggest difference between himself and the Prison Emperor was that he was smarter than the Prison Emperor. Well, technically, he was more shameless!

After obtaining various pieces of information, Yue Yang and City Mistress Luo Hua analyzed the situation.

They thought it was not a trap.

In the end, they decided to go to Tai Lun immediately, reuniting with Bi Lu and Yan Zao, who was inquiring about the news on the Tai Lun Continent to determine the situation, before taking further action.

It was not possible to go directly to the Tai Lun Continent, where the guards of the Central Palace had taken over those. Only those who have a title are deemed worthy of entering Tai Lun Continent. Otherwise if it was researched, the outpost of the Tong Tian Tower, the Nightless City, would easily be found and destroyed by the Central Palace.

One day later.

Before the Teleportation Array formed to the Tai Lun Continent, a luxurious airship came.

The airship was written with ” Raging Flame”, indicating that it was a special vessel for the Raging Flame Bandit Group.

The leader of the Flames who was still cultivating in the Stairway had Yue Yang capture the man, and with the identity of the Bandit Group’s Leader, they showed the soldiers guarding the teleportation array an ‘invitation’. In fact, it was only something they snatched from the hands of a leader halfway on the journey. There was no name on it, only the unique symbol of the Central Palace. The head of the Flames used it as an impersonation and there was no flaw.

Student Yue Yang stood behind Lie Yan, and when she accompanied him, her disguised strength was Level 3 of the Heaven Rank, where she was barely qualified to participate in the Great Slashing Ceremony.

“Hadn’t the Flame Bandit Group disbanded?” A guard murmured a little strangely.

“Forget it, as long as the leader is not dead, it can be rebuilt anytime!” The leader snorted, bored. In the Heaven Realm, there were many bandit groups, but generally only the leader has the actual strength. If the leader does not die and loses all subordinates, it was not a big deal, he just needed to call for more people to join. Not only was the Flame alive, but she also seemed to have had an adventure as her strength was greatly improved. It would take only a word to rebuild the Raging Flame Bandit Group!

“The warden has an order. No one is allowed to carry weapons in front of the torture stage. May the leader pay attention to that.” The guard who was inspecting hurriedly reminded Lie Yan, and at the same time skillfully took the money bag and bribery that Yue Yang handed over. After checking their identities, Lie Yan and Yue Yang left in the airship. Then, he opened the heavy money bag and found that besides the gold coins, there was a gem on the top of the pile. He couldn’t help but rush towards the captain excitedly and cheered: “Captain, the Raging Flame Bandit Group must have made a fortune recently. Do you know how much tip that kid gave us? A whole thousand gold, and even an opal worth three thousand gold!”

“Then what are you waiting for, you don’t need to be on duty anymore. Immediately go find my cousin— have him arrange a good place for the Raging Flame Group. We mustn’t miss the chance for friendship with the strong who are generous!” As soon as the captain heard those words, his entire being immediately energetically stood up.
