Chapter 69 - A Pangolin? (2/2)
The crowd from the Donglin County looked at the man suspiciously. They were wondering if he was a lunatic. Why was the man kneeling out of the blues in a sea of people and why was his face pale white? The man spoke in tongues that were difficult to comprehend as he sweated profusely. There was nothing before him. Maybe he was a random person who was possessed?
The man finally stood up, not paying attention to the people who were looking at him. He remained at where he was and soon, a group of Ye Clan members walked over and to inspect him.
“You, you’re the guy. Come with me,” Ye Ping waved his hand and spoke in a certain manner. This must be the bearded man as described by Ye Chen. The man did not say much and walked toward the grand hall.
“I am. Thank you for coming.” The man bowed. He dared not cause a scene in the Daemon King’s place and quietly followed the men.
Why was the lunatic being escorted by a bunch of Ye Clan members? What was going on? The crowd looked on. They were fascinated by what had happened.
Ye Chen recalled his Astral Body and thought about things. Where did the Leo King’s Palace come from? He turned to look at Little Tanuki who was on his shoulder. The fact that the pangolin could easily shapeshift implied that his powers were on par with Little Tanuki. He wondered when Little Tanuki would learn to shapeshift or speak. Ye Chen could not help but imagine if Little Tanuki would turn into a hot chick if it could ever shapeshift. Of course, that was just his imagination.
Ye Chen thought about the powers one needed to have to be considered a Daemon King. Maybe they needed to Astral Externalize to be considered one. His personal knight that was born from Astral Externalization was nothing more but a mere specter who lacked any combat abilities. Ye Chen thought it was best for him to minimize his use of his Astral Body. It would be a huge problem if his secrets were discovered. Would he able to materialize his knight into a physical being if he kept at his training with Nine Astra Skies?
Ye Chen did not have the faintest idea of Little Tanuki’s enemies but as long as he continued to assume the guise of a Daemon King, he doubted anyone would dare lay hands on it!
Ye Chen had not the slightest clue about the gift that the pangolin had brought from the Leo King’s Palace.
The crowd in the hall continued to exchange greetings, all unaware of the psychic link that Ye Chen and the pangolin shared.
Just then, a group of Ye Clan members came bursting into the hall.
“Elder Chief, a group of ten men had just barged in. Neither of us could stop them!” The men hastily reported, “Some of them were rank nine combatants.”
The elder chiefs and lords looked were shocked. Who would dare cause a ruckus on the Ye Clan’s big day? The Ye Clan was a stronghold that should not be meddled with. Did they have a death wish or something? The hall was filled with elder chiefs and lords. One word from Ye Zhantian and they would strike together. Even if it were a group of ten rank nine combatants, they could think twice about escaping alive.
Ye Zhantian’s expression changed. He looked up ahead, a group of ten strangers was dashing for the grand hall. “Who dares storm my castle ground!?” Ye Zhantian thundered.
“The Donglin County belongs to me. I come and go as I please. You’ve got nerves, Ye Zhantian, you and your clan. Do you mean to defy the king?”
The king? Could the Second-Rank Prince have arrived?
