Chapter 640: Seeing the sky (1) (1/2)
In a Golden Palace surrounded by clouds and flying cranes on the backyard of the Golden Palace, someone wearing a grey robe with a wooden scepter on his right hand gripped it tight as he looked at the sky above.
He sees the cloudless skies and he sighed. Then he saw the sword coming down from the Heavens and he sighed once again.
Then he loosened the grip on his scepter but his eyes are shining brightly
This man is not old but there is wrinkles on his face.
He stands straight but there is a feeling of tiredness that emanates out of him feeling like he is an old person of the world that have weathered many storms and vicissitudes of life.
The more he sees and look at the sky, the more he seems dispirited.
'Ah' he said and then he laughs a bit. The crane on the floating clouds on top of the roof of the veranda of this pavilion made some noise.
That was when the sky opened up. But when the sword shows its edge, the crane shut itself up. It just stands with its leg on the clouds.
Beside him, stands another person. This person wears a black dragon robe and stand tall. His height is nearly reaching seven feet.
He is tall. He is very tall. That is how tall he is. His height covered all of China and his shadow blanketed the entire Empire.
He could be considered influential and important.
And his entire body is emanating Disk Formation fluctuations, trying to alleviate the pressure from the sky. He did not want to contend with that all-encompassing Will.
He just did not want to kneel to it.
And since that Will did not want to kneel, so he could endure it and not kneel.
He is none other than Feng Jing Emperor of Wei. His contemporary is none other than the Martial Lord, Yue Xing, the Emperor of Yue.
But unlike Yue Xing he is one of the highest member of Lotus Order and after the terrible defeat of Yue Xing last year all of China is almost pacified.
But, is China the whole world? Is it the entire Asian continent?
He is not the only hero under the heavens and he is certainly not the most amazing. So, he did not feel proud even though his officials praised him all day
Those titans that is in the Three Great Powers deters all creation.
How could he claim himself a great hero in such an era of Gods and Deities? How could then he could be prideful all the time?
He did not sigh but his face shows he is not entirely pleased either.
The reason why he keeps winning is because of that man with the scepter.
To be more accurate, it is not because of the man with the scepter that he would win battles, but it is because of the man with the scepter that he did not worry if he lost.
Without such worries, he could go all out. Because he lives inside the Lotus Palace, the shining golden palace that one third of Beijing
Beside him is none other than the Arrayist Sage Lee Sangmin. Even some of the formation on the walls of Pandemonium was constructed by this Sage of Array Formation.
They both looked at the sky and they both see what each other see. They do not only see the skies and the stars and the sword.
They also see people flying from many corners of the world.
A Will was stirred. And as such a new will sprouted. Like birds those people fly freely across the clouds.
Yue Xing frowned and ask
'Between me and him, which person is taller? 'he asks. Lee Sangmin chuckles a bit. He looks at the Emperor of Wei. Almost reaching seven feet tall.
'That is tall' he thought to himself and he answered
'You are tall. But ”that person” is of course the tallest. He is so tall that his shadow blanketed the world. Since the sun only shines on him, we are all hidden in the darkness.' He said and he bitterly smiles
'But the sun is so bright and hot.' The Emperor said.
'Hmm. It is true' Lee Sangmin said.
The sword could no longer be seen in the distance.
The sword seems quite slow. It took many words to come out from their mouth to be spoken before that sword finally sliced down
But Sangmin don't think it would seem slow to those people who were targeted by that sword
To them that sword probably seem very fast. And they probably would have died. Since ”that person” had swung the sword, how could anyone that he wanted to die would not die?
Since he swung it, then they have died. It is not a conjecture or some deduction. It is the fact.
