Smiling in face of the pressure the man called Tao Xiang was intentionally releasing, Bai Long said, "I wish to have an audience with the King. And no, someone of your status cannot ask what business I have with him."Hearing those words everyone had a shocked face with their mouths wide open, while Tao Xiang also was stunned for a while before gritting his teeth and saying, "Come inside... I"ll inform the Majesty, and ask if he wants to grant you his audience."
While the general public might see the Bai Kingdom as a newly made one which couldn"t pose any threat to a long-existing Kingdom like theirs, Tai Xiang as the strongest general knew the truth.
The Zhu Kingdom was strong, but not much stronger than the Bai Kingdom.
Therefore, even though he had confidence in winning against the Bai Kingdom if they did go to war, Tao Xiang knew that the losses they incurred wouldn"t be worth it.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Not to mention how many of the other Kingdoms could take the opportunity to wipe them out, just because they could without having to spend much.
Bearing with the obvious disdain, since he didn"t dare hurt that sn.o.bby prince and cause a war, Tao Xiang left to inform the King, while the soldiers even more respectfully asked Bai Long to come with them.
Once Bai Long, and Tao Xiang both were no longer visible, the crowd which was hadn"t said a word immediately broke out in chaos.
"Is that really the same Tao Xiang who slaughtered so many clans since they were thinking of rebelling?"
"Hey, do you remember that rumour of his Majesty being close to death due to a.s.sa.s.sins from the Bai Kingdom, attacking him?"
"I did! But... Didn"t they announce that the rumour was fake?"
"You idiot know nothing. If it was fake, wouldn"t his Majesty have appeared and said so himself? Also, why would Tao Xiang kill that prince from the Bai Kingdom on the spot, if he wasn"t afraid of the repercussions?"
"Does that mean... His Majesty is really close to dying?!"
As someone spoke those words loudly, the news of the King dying soon, and the Bai Kingdom taking over them turned into the hottest rumour of the capital city.
...
Going through the opened gates, Bai Long directly entered the main palace in which he caused a huge commotion with his Yin Puppets.
"How come there are so many guards here? Is your King that scared?"
Gritting their teeth and not saying anything, since the reason behind increasing the security was due to the a.s.sa.s.sins from the Bai Kingdom having caused such a huge ruckus, the soldiers increased their pace.
Chuckling at this loudly, Bai Long ignored the wrath filled gazes from the soldiers who standing in attendance at every few feet.
Following the guards, Bai Long entered a room which was filled with more luxurious tapestry, carpets, and furniture than what he saw outside in the corridors.
Sitting on a sofa which was quite soft, Bai Long once again chuckled from how many soldiers were standing guard around the room.
"Doesn"t your backward kingdom know how to gift beautiful women to your guests? Tsk. Such hillbillies."
"This br..."
Hastily using his hands to cover the soldier"s mouth who was about to say something, General Tao Xiang who just entered the room said, "His Majesty is willing to see you. Come with me."
Standing up and following behind the huge man, Bai Long when pa.s.sing the soldier who tried to say something said, "Don"t worry, I won"t f.u.c.k your wife even if she strips naked and begs me."
Saying so Bai Long quickly left the room just before the soldier could say or do something.
Still, before Bai Long was too far he could hear loud screams from the room he left.
"I"ll kill him! How dare he doesn"t f.u.c.k my wife?!!!"
"Is the King safe, general? It would be quite funny if he was actually injured when my a.s.sa.s.sins were forced to escape before they could try anything."
Clenching his hands tightly and suppressing his killing intent from not being able to kill Bai Long who had so openly admitted, Tao Xiang said, "You"ll see how his Majesty is, once you meet him."
Not saying anything else, the two walked in silence and after quite a while stopped in front of a room which had the biggest doors inside the palace.
"Are you going to open it, or should I?"
Again clenching his fist, so hard that his nails were biting into his skin, Tao Xiang who was about to ask for his Majesty"s permission before entering the throne room, almost kicked the door to let out his frustration.
"Not even going to answer? Did your wife"s p.u.s.s.y get your tongue?"
Moving forward and kicking the door in the way which let him seem the most arrogant, Bai Long felt lucky that the doors weren"t too heavy, and easily opened with his kick.
Even after the door he kicked opened, Bai Long didn"t put his leg down to show off how he opened the door.
After plenty of seconds during which Tao Xiang"s back was covered in sweat, Bai Long finally put his leg down and started walking inside the room.
Entering the room, the first thing Bai Long was how the throne room looked much more magnificent than the Bai Kingdom"s throne room.
This didn"t really surprise Bai Long much, because even though the King has spent so much on building a vault using Black Gold, the Zhu Kingdom was something which existed for too many years to not even have such a throne room.
Going inside while maintaining the same haughty look on his face, and walked as arrogantly as possible, Bai Long had his head at an angle that made those around feel like they were ants and weren"t worthy of his attention.
Looking straight at towards the fat Zhu Zemin who was seated on the throne with a frown on his brows, Bai Long said, "Submit or Perish."
