"You… you are…"
The imperial guard looked terrified and pointed at Xu Que . His voice was trembling and he was unable to complete his sentence .
The Metal Emperor was puzzled and his eyebrows knitted closely together in thought .
These guards had been sent out by him not too long ago . Now that they were back, he wanted to know what they had discovered, especially now . He wanted information with regards to Xu Que or the Exploding Heavens Faction!
But it seemed from the terrified look of the guard that before he had been able to ask anything, he had definitely recognised Xu Que .
This surprised the Metal Emperor and he gave a swiftly order . "Men, bring them down for a rest!"
He knew that even if there was news on Xu Que from the other nations, the news should not be said in front of Xu Que .
That would make people misunderstand the reasons that the Metal Emperor had sent people to check up on Xu Que .
"Yes!"
Several eunuchs immediately acted on the order and walked over to lead the five imperial guards away .
But apparently, Xu Que did not want that . He immediately stopped them . "Wait!"
Just now when that guard talked about Fire Country, Xu Que knew that it was another chance to act tough!
Yet the Metal Emperor did not seem to want to hear about it and wanted to send them away . Xu Que would not let this happen!
This Act Tough King has stumbled on such a good opportunity to act tough, how can I just pass it up?
The guard must speak, and say it out loud to everyone… so that he can help this Act Tough King earn some publicity!
"Your Majesty, since he has something to say, why not let him say it first!" Xu Que crossed his arms whilst making his nonchalant comment .
The Metal Emperor paused for a while .
Xu Que had just done a great favor to the Metal Nation with regards to the Dragon Veins . With everyone watching, he felt that he should not turn down Xu Que's request .
He remained silent for a while then nodded his head, turning to the guard . "Alright, tell me what you know!"
"Yes, be rest assured, as long as I'm here, nobody will dare do anything to you!" Xu Que looked enthusiastic and gave a friendly smile .
The guard trembled for an instant and dared not look at Xu Que in the eye .
Inside, he was feeling agonised . Back when Xu Que had been in Fire Country, he had been there too and hadneven witnessed Xu Que ending the life of the Fire Emperor!
He also knew that Xu Que had slept with the Fire Emperor's concubine, sister and even the princess… no one had been left out .
Despite the fact that he had forgone his sleep and used various teleportation devices to rush back to the Metal Nation as soon as possible in order to report this news, this rascal had still been faster than him and had appeared here unexpectedly .
He was scared silly by Xu Que . He thought Xu Que had come to harm the Metal Nation!
He looked at the Metal Emperor, flustered . "Your Majesty, your loyal subordinate has just come back from Fire Country and has witnessed the Fire Emperor being… being… being killed!"
"What?"
Instantly, almost everyone present gasped in shock, including the Metal Emperor!
The Emperor of Fire Country has been killed?
Good heavens!
How is this possible?
Is the world descending into chaos?
Fire Country was considered one of the strongest amongst the five nations . It was in no way weaker than Metal Nation . How could the Emperor have died just like that? Could he have been taken out by an expert from overseas?
The crowd was shocked .
After all, Fire Country and Metal Nation had always been enemies . For many years, they had been fighting between themselves and had even sent killers to assassinate each other's princes and princesses .
Upon hearing the news of the death of the Fire Emperor, after the initial shock, they were actually glad .
Now everyone was curious about who had killed the Fire Emperor .
The Metal Emperor looked solemnly at the guard and asked, "do you know which venerable master did that?"
In his opinion, someone who could kill the Fire Emperor was certainly a strong entity and definitely above the stage of Infant Transformation… or even a master at the peak of the Void Training Stage!
Everyone looked at the guard in anticipation!
Shoosh!
Suddenly, Xu Que appeared at the top of the highest peak, his black cloak billowing behind him . No one knew when exactly Xu Que had gone up to the highest peak . He folded his arms before his chest and looked up to the sky at a 45 degree angle, looking proud and somber as if he was a formidable master!
The crowd was puzzled by his strange, unwarranted actions .
Brother, this is a crucial moment . Can't you focus on listening to what the guard will say?
What are you thinking of doing by going up so high?
You're not concerned about who killed the Fire Emperor but we are!
"Tell us, which venerable master did that?" The Metal Emperor turned to look at the guard again after being distracted by Xu Que earlier .
Everyone's attention was back on the guard again .
But instead, the guard shrank his neck and gingerly lifted his arm, pointing at Xu Que who was standing at the highest peak . The guard was unable to say a word .
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
Everyone was bewildered .
What does that mean?
