Chapter 486 - A Plague (2) (2/2)
”Master… can we help them?” Nao Guo asked innocently.
Shin Jiao has already decided to help the little girl, so he would take her with him until he is able to find her a new family.
And since his ring has its own world and is able to absorb people he decided to take her inside. And he also did this to help the others.
Shin Jiao is not afraid that these people would tell others, as he is traveling in disguise no one even knows his true appearance.
Out of all the women in this bunch, he saw three who are cultivators who also asked him to take their families. So Shin Jiao is a bit cautious towards those three.
He decided to open the gates and let the women and the children out.
As they felt their freedom, everyone showed a happy expression on their faces. But Shin Jiao didn't want to dilly dally things, so he looks at them and shouted.
”Alright, we have to act fast. We cannot delay this until the morning. Form a line here and tell that little lady where your families are…” Shin Jiao said.
Nao Guo was a bit surprised and showed a questioning look on her face.
”Hey, you wanted to help them, right?” Shin Jiao said with a smirk.
…
The next day
The whole capital city was suddenly shaken with a piece of very grave news. This is because many found a lot of soldiers and some mercenaries along with some people die with their mouths foaming and their skin turning pale as if the muscles and the liquid in their body were sucked dry.
It was a clear indication that there is a plague that is spreading throughout the city.
Inside the huge palace chamber, a man is lying on a huge bed with many women sprawled all over the bed. Some are even lying on the sofa and others are on the ground. This man is the new and yet to be crowned king of the Si Kingdom, Linque Ding.
Suddenly, the huge door of his chamber laden with gold decorations was flung open and a tall man wearing a blue robe waltz inside.
When he saw the n.a.k.e.d women littered all over the place, his face turned red as he swallowed hard.
”Your majesty I have urgent news… it's really bad out there.” The man said with agitation in his eyes.
When Linque Ding heard the man's annoying voice, he abruptly sat up from his bed and coldly glances at the man.
”Chamberlain, who told you to shout? I'm sleeping peacefully and you just disturbed me… I should kill you for this…”
”Your majesty, the kingdom is in chaos! There is a deadly plague which has spread all over the city. Around 50% of our soldiers died along with many other people… if our enemy got hold of this news, then we might be in trouble.”
When Linque Ding heard the words of the chamberlain, he was immediately awoken from his drowsy state. He has just painstakingly conquered the kingdom with much bloodshed. How can he let King Rui Murong come back and take back the throne?
He barely won the last time due to the help of the sects and his armies, but now that 50% of them are already gone, how can he fight back?
”Call the elders of the sects and ask them to convene a meeting we should discuss this…” Linque Ding shouted as he jumps up from the bed.
He has shown his true cultivation level in the war as someone in the peak of the infant soul realm. Although it is not strong enough to fight against the current king, with the help of his allies, they were able to defeat the strong king but they were unable to kill him.
But of course, King Rui Murong didn't escape unscathed.
And now that a plague has just spread, Linque Ding suspected that it was the work of King Murong to take back the city. Hence he wanted to ask the help of the nascent realm cultivators in this situation.
…
While this is happening, Shin Jiao has already taken the families of those people and bring them inside his ring. When he saw their reunion being too sentimental he decided to go out and go back to the city. His goal is to activate the portal and go to the next kingdom, the kingdom of Er.
But of course to do that he have to end this chaotic situation the sooner the better.
