Chapter 915 - 157: The Generous Jinn Emperor

Chapter 915: Chapter 157: The Generous Jinn Emperor

After leaving the Secret Vault Department, Zhou Xun headed directly to the entrance of the Inner City, Jin’an Gate.

The Imperial City is divided into two parts: the Inner City and the Outer City,

The Outer City mainly serves as the office location for various government departments,

While the Inner City is the place where the Jinn Emperor meets with foreign ministers and is also the residence of the direct descendants of the royal family,

It is said that the ancestor of the Jinn Dynasty resides there.

Jin’an Gate is extremely tall, several dozens of zhang in size, with two rows of guards standing at the entrance, ten on each side!

They wear Standard Spirit Armor and hold Standard Long Halberds, all of Core Formation Stage Cultivation.

With Zhou Xun’s experience, he could naturally see that these Spirit Armors are a complete set capable of deploying a simple array,

Together, they could rival a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

"Halt, the Imperial City is a restricted area; random movements are prohibited!"

Just as he reached the gate, a middle-aged man dressed as a Military General stopped him, with Early-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivation.

"Pavilion Master of Jiangling Prefecture, here to meet the Jinn Emperor!" Saying this, Zhou Xun took out his Mansion Master Token and handed it over,

The middle-aged man took a look, and his expression softened significantly.

According to the rules, a Pavilion Master indeed has the qualification to seek an audience with the Jinn Emperor, but whether he can ultimately meet the Emperor depends on the Emperor’s decision.

"Pavilion Master Jiang, please wait a moment while I report your presence!" Saying this, the middle-aged man took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and was about to speak,

"Wait!" Zhou Xun intervened to stop him, then continued:

"I am here on the orders of Prince Xiping to deliver a message, please inform him of this!"

Prince Xiping, who is the Commander Ji of the main camp, is now the representative of the Great Jin Dynasty on the West Desert Front.

Upon hearing the words ’Prince Xiping’, the middle-aged man was taken aback and immediately realized the importance of the matter, nodded solemnly,

And added a few more sentences into the Sound Transmission Talisman!

Then he flicked it towards the inside of the gate, and the talisman transformed into a streak of fire and flew away.

"Pavilion Master Jiang, please wait here for a moment, a reply will arrive shortly!" the middle-aged man said politely.

Zhou Xun nodded, and then began to chat idly with the middle-aged man.

...

Meanwhile,

Xuzhou, Danyang Royal Mansion,

In a luxurious courtyard, a dignified old man with a High Crown and wearing a golden Dragon Robe was sitting in a pavilion playing chess with a middle-aged man,

This person is the master of the entire Danyang Prefecture, the current King Danyang, a Peak Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Suddenly, a streak of fire flew in from outside, stopping above the Restriction, darting about; it was a Sound Transmission Talisman.

Seeing this, the old man stretched out his hand, and the Sound Transmission Talisman was drawn into his palm, then he placed it next to his ear,

Soon, a trace of anger appeared on his face,

"What a brazen boy, he dares to come back!"

"Your Highness, what happened?" the middle-aged man asked curiously, wondering who would dare provoke this old lord!

One must know, this generation of King Danyang is not an ordinary Late-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, but one of the top ten experts of the Great Jin,

A mere Great Cultivator is no match for him.

"That Zhou Xun has returned!" King Danyang sneered.

"What, he dares to come back!" the middle-aged man exclaimed in surprise; this person offended King Danyang and dared to return to the Great Jin, truly courting death.

"Perhaps he still thinks his actions were in the dark, unnoticed by anyone!" King Danyang sneered.

Earlier, after Zhou Xun took away the heart Essence Blood of the ’Golden Feather Cloud-Stepping Eagle’, King Danyang felt greatly humiliated,

Thus began a substantial pursuit and investigation.

He even went so far as to call in experts good at solving cases from the Jinn Court, first investigating the entire royal mansion,

Finally pinpointing Zhou Xun’s identity, having used the alias ’Chen Ping’an’,

Using his time of joining the royal mansion and gathering information on all the cultivators teleported to Danyang City during that time,

Then starting the investigation from the Short Distance Teleportation Array, after all, to have such Skills, one must have Tier Four Low-Grade Array proficiency,

Using information from the Great Jin Intelligence Department, he quickly got a list of those with Short Distance Teleportation Array technology,

Eliminating one by one, he finally narrowed the target down to Zhou Xun!

"I wonder about Your Highness’s plans; it must be known that Zhou Xun, in speaking of him, truly possesses extraordinary talent!" the middle-aged man said.

"Plans, he humiliated me as such; naturally, I must seek justice, otherwise, the world will think Danyang is easy to bully!"

"Feiyu Junior Brother, you wait here, I will make a trip to Jinyang Immortal City!" Saying this, his figure flashed, exiting the royal mansion,

Heading to the teleportation array in the city, teleporting towards Jinyang Immortal City.

...

At Jin’an Gate, Zhou Xun was having an enjoyable conversation with the middle-aged man,

Just then, a streak of fire flew over, stopping mid-air, transforming into a golden paper bird, which then produced a distinguished voice from its mouth:

"Pavilion Master Jiang, please enter to speak!"

"Brother Zhou, this is an edict from His Majesty; he has granted you an audience, so please proceed, just follow the paper bird," the middle-aged man said with a chuckle.

"Alright, Brother Liu, wait for me to return for more pleasurable conversation!" Saying this, Zhou Xun strode past the palace gate,

The paper bird led the way ahead, while Zhou Xun followed below,

Passing through a long corridor, crossing several golden bridges, finally arriving in front of a grand hall occupying nearly a thousand zhang,

"Pavilion Master Zhou, please come in!" a gentle voice sounded next to his ear,

Immediately, Zhou Xun stepped into the grand hall and saw a dignified man sitting there, wearing a High Crown and Dragon Robe, smiling at him.

"Greetings to the Jinn Emperor!" Zhou Xun cupped his hands in salute.

"Daoist Zhou, no need for such formalities, you have performed great deeds on the West Desert Front, making you a hero of our Human Race, please have a seat!" Zhou Xun immediately sat at the table on the left.

"Your Majesty is also aware of the West Desert’s news?" Zhou Xun asked curiously.

"The West Desert Front is of utmost concern to our Human Race; as the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, naturally I must be well-informed,"
