Chapter 117: Clear wind city
"Blood witch Luo!", Brianna cried out after seeing the face of the woman. A trace of fear appeared in her eyes as she shouted the name of the woman. A solemn look appeared on the face of old man Mason as he looked at the image of woman. A frown appeared on the face of general Lawrence after he saw the image of the woman.
"Evan, why are you showing us the picture of blood witch Luo? Is she somehow involved?", general Lawrence asked with a solemn voice. Evan couldn't understand why they were making such a fuss over a Nascent soul realm expert.
He nodded his head and said, "This is the woman guarding sister Stacey".
"How is this possible? Why was she involved against us?", Brianna cried out after a moment. Evan's head ached after seeing her aunt losing composure. He had yet to understand why they were so frightened sue to a single Nascent soul stage expert.
Yesterday, he had only seen this woman through the vision of the butterflies. He was not there personally. So, he had yet to look through the cultivation of this woman.
After sometime Mason was the first to calm down. "Are you sure?", he asked Evan. Evan nodded his head.
"This matter is becoming serious. Looks like I can't ignore fighting this time", a resolute look appeared on his eyes.
"How did you manage to find her?", old man Mason asked. Before Evan could say anything, Brianna described the chain of events involving the Black family.
A glint of fire appeared on the eyes of General Lawrence as he roared, "How dare they?"
Now he understood why Stacey was kidnapped. Soon after she vanished, there was a letter threatening him to not do anything or face the consequence. It was all to cut out the power of Thousand swords kingdom when the enemies would act against them.
"They are underestimating the foundation of Thousand swords kingdom. Even the supreme powers from Southern region dare not act recklessly against the kingdom. But the problem is neither Richard nor Nathan is here. I wonder who can ralley the hidden forces", Mason said with a deep voice.
Evan's eyes flashed as he recalled the words of his ancestor. There were some powerful ancestors still alive in the Thousand swords kingdom. They were the true reason why Northpeak empire never dare to suppress the Thousand swords kingdom.
From outside appearance, Thousand swords kingdom was under the Northpeak empire but in reality even the Northpeak empire dare not touch them.
After sometime Brianna and Evan walked out from the palace of divine general. Brianna's heart was heavy as the woman named Luo was one of the most dangerous woman in the entire Northpeak empire. She requested Evan to continue his tracking on Black family and left quickly to arrange the affairs of the kingdom.
Evan knew he had to keep close watch on his enemies. His coronation ceremony was coming and he didn't know what his enemies were planning.
---------------
Days passed by like the fleeting cloud. There were only two remained before the coronation ceremony. Evan was tracking the Black family men and madam Luo but he still had not noticed any significant movements from his enemies.
He grew more suspicious and decided to listen to the conversation of his enemies. Although tracking with the illusory butterflies was a good option but it was not absolute. He could only see the visual images of his targets but he couldn't listen to their conversation. So, if he want to find out more, he had to take the risk.
It was day time now. The market of Sword city was bustling with numerous people. Crowd was more dense in the city now as everyone was aware of the upcoming coronation ceremony of the crown prince.
Evan was out with Alice. She was hopping around like a little rabbit after coming to market. Evan didn't mind anything as long as she was happy.contemporary romance
"Big brother, how is this dress?", Alice looked at Evan hopefully.
"Our Alice will look like a fairy after wearing this", Evan nodded his head. A smile appeared on the face of Alice after listening the reply of Evan. Evan was just going to ask for the price when his face darkened.
He brought out numerous gold coins from his spatial ring and gave it to the saleswoman. "Keep the change", he spoke before hurriedly leaving the shop.
Evan stopped a horse cart and entered it with Alice. "To the city gate", he instructed the coachman. He left the Sword city by the city gate. He walked a little bit farther and then turned his head. A old man stepped out of the sky and stood Infront of him. It was the Shadow commander who was in charge of protecting him.
"Little prince, why do you come out of the city", he asked curiously. "Grandpa, how much time it will take to reach the Clear wind city?", Evan questioned him without giving an answer.
"It will probably take eight hours if we use the flying beast", the old man replied. "What happened", he asked after seeing the serious look on the face of Evan.
"I was tracking Chris Black today. He was talking with Ian Taylor. I find out about an important meeting from them. It will be held tonight in Clear wind city", Evan explained quickly.
"It is quite serious. Why don't you go back with the princess. I will hurry towards the Clear wind city", the shadow commander looked at Evan.
"It will not do. Time is running out. You don't have to worry about me or Alice. Let's go, we will observe them from a distance", Evan spoke with a firm tone. He was indeed not worried for Alice as he knew her weired abilities.
The shadow commander thought for a moment. Then he nodded his head. He took out a blue coloured paper and ordered for a flying beast. Evan saw the blue coloured paper and a hint of interest appeared on his eyes. "It is probably a short distanced message tailsman", he thought to himself.
