Chapter 481 - An Elf (2/2)

Seven figures disappeared without so much as leaving another word, they have said enough. Later that day the entire City of Thousand Gods would be thrown into a massive disturbance. News of the Sword God's appearance finally surfaced after months of remaining missing from the public's eyes.

The ones who laughed felt like eating horse shit because they welcomed the Sword God's arrival with jeering laughter. Which, to make things worst might had a member of the Primordial Race onboard. This led to many Sects, Clans, and Factions trembling.

The Sword God was a mysterious person. Nothing much was known about the Sword God, not even pertaining to gender. A mystery thus making the Sword God unknown and frightful. If the Sword God was to decide to pay them a visit, then it would be easy to say annihilation would be the only end they would receive.

The Sword God was one of the few who already formed a Domain that is leagues above the norm. A master through and through, a legend that surpasses even that of rumors.

But that alone was not enough because aboard the Sailer was the Slaughter Emperor Spear. On that Cosmic Sailer were the Sword God, Absolute White Sword, members of the Primordial Race, and the Slaughter Emperor Spear, and they laughed at them… they laugh.

Sufficed to say, many would be doing their best to beg for forgiveness in the coming days before the Congregation.

On a Private Manor owned the Roan.

”Did you foresee him saying all that, Master?” Chang Ping asked as she and Wang Ling drank tea on an open pagoda surrounded by beautiful and fragrant flowers.

”Hmm? No, I did not. Though I did deduce he'd be able to suppress the laughter and establish the standing of the Sword Tower and the Wang Family's connection if he ran rampant.” Wang Ling answered as he drank tea.

Chang Ping creased her brows, ”So all this is for us to gain as much leverage as possible by the time the Congregation begins?”

”Correct.”

”That must also be why Butler Sun said all that obvious thing about my current situation. Did you say to tell him all that before? Wait, did Master foresaw this all happening, and was that the reason why you had Roan used his Shabby Sailer?”

Wang Ling was very tempted to say yes, but he shook his head, ”Close, but no, nothing was planned. The Sailer was a coincidence, the laughter a nice prize, and the laughter was not something I liked so I used them to elevate our position. Though I have to say, Tang Yu was more eloquent than I thought, I like him. Also, give Butler Sun a credit, he managed to read my intentions clearly.”

”That gives me joy, Young Master.” Butler Sun showed up from the manor carrying a platter with biscuits as he offered them to the two, ”I just baked them, please, have some. It goes well with tea.”

”Thank you, Butler Sun.”

Chang Ping began keeping to herself only to come to the conclusion of, ”Then all of that was improvised?”

”Of course, it is. Though to be fair, I did already make some planning on how to use Tang Yu's ”drinking problems” that you referred to back on the ship. I heard that and thought that could be useful in some cases. I didn't think it would happen so quickly, but here we are now. And surprisingly… some things never change… some people are just too foolish that they fall for every bit of taunting and setups.”

[But I supposed not everyone is so shortsighted and without the ability to properly scheme something. I think some people are competent enough to play.] Wang Ling's thoughts wandered as an elven woman appeared right behind Chang Ping.

”Might I ask who you are, Miss?” Wang Ling said in leisure while his face remains uncovered.

”Huh, you don't seem surprised, boy… and you look awfully similar to those revenants.” The elf said as she hugged Chang Ping from behind.
