Chapter 649: Chapter 377: The Number One Grandmaster in the World_3
…
Imperial City.
A black-clothed figure flitted silently over rooftops until he arrived within the Imperial Court.
The mont he nearly touched the ground, several figures with breaths as deep as abysses appeared around him, encircling him at the center while staring intently at him.
The man in black remained silent, subtly releasing a strand of his aura and Inner Breath, then took out an Order Token.
Whoosh.
...
Feeling the aura and seeing the Order Token, the surrounding figures made no sound as they retreated, leaving the man in black within the walls of the Imperial Court. He then walked steadily towards the majestic palaces.
After bypassing the central, majestic and imposing building, he ca to a side palace at the back.
Several eunuchs stood outside the side palace.
Seeing him approach,
One of them stepped forward to greet him.
The man in black saluted him and handed over the Order Token, whispering: “Lord Wei, urgent report from Cold North.”
“His Majesty has already rested. Tell it to , and I will present it when His Majesty awakens,” Lord Wei He, clad in a bright red eunuch’s robe, with a benign face and gentle steps, yet with an unsettling aura, softly addressed the man in black.
Wei He.
The Grand Supervisor of Ceremonies and leader of the palace guards.
His official rank might be re third grade, but his position could not be asured by rank; after Emperor Xuan’s alternate lucidity and madness, Wei He beca the emperor’s sole channel to the outside world.
The last ti Emperor Xuan appeared in public was over a decade ago. In these past ten years, not even The Eight Princes nor the consorts, not even the Empress in the Imperial Palace, had seen Emperor Xuan, with only Wei He granted audience.
Without any hesitation upon hearing Wei He’s words, the man in black slightly opened his mouth, his voice coalescing into a thread, resonating by Wei He’s ear.
“…”
After listening to the man in black’s report, Wei He’s eyes narrowed gradually, an intangible and terrifying aura rising from him, making the man in black’s breathing halt and his back drenched in cold sweat in an instant.
But the aura appeared swiftly and vanished just as quickly.
Wei He resud his kind deanor, speaking softly, “All right, I am inford. I will present it to His Majesty later. You may leave now. Continue to monitor the situation in Cold North and report to whenever necessary.”
“Yes.”
The man in black steadied his breath, bowed his head, and after respectfully saluting, turned and withdrew.
Wei He watched the man in black leave, then walked leisurely to the side palace, quietly pushing open the door and entering, then closed the door without a sound.
He silently advanced on the green jade floor tiles until he reached a silent chamber on one side. In the chamber, a figure clad in yellow imperial robes sat cross-legged with eyes closed, his hair half-black, half-white sprawling behind him, emitting a faintly discernible breath.
“Your Majesty, there has been an incident in the Cold North.”
Wei He spoke softly.
His voice echoed in the silent chamber.
However, the figure in imperial robes showed no response, remaining still and silent.
“…”
Seeing this, Wei He shook his head slightly.
After waiting a while with no answer, he slowly turned to leave the chamber, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
…
A short ti later.
Several figures set out from within the Imperial Court, each heading in different directions.
So went to King of Jin’s estate, so to the Prince of Yan’s estate, and so to the back courtyard of the Imperial Court. No one knew their purpose, only that after their departure from various important places, the estates of The Eight Princes and other such places all fell into brief silence.
Finally.
One day later, a news gradually spread throughout the Imperial City, sweeping across Central Prefecture.
In Cold North Eleven States, the Seven Profound Sect of Yu State, Chen Mu, the Peak Master of Spirit Profound Peak, at only thirty-three, had broken through the Mysterious Pass using the Qiankun Path, achieved Marrow Cleansing, slain Wu Gu Marquis, defeated Jiang Changsheng, and repelled the Heavenly Demon Yuwen Hao… entering the roster of the world’s Grandmasters!
After thirty-seven years, the first place in the Grandmasters’ roster of the Da Xuan Dynasty had changed hands, with King Ji Xuanchu of Jin dropping to second place.
And the newly listed Grandmaster Chen Mu.
