Martial Hall of Emperor Jun Wu

" Yìfēi remind me once again why we are here ?" Xiàn Fèng asked in a whisper,

" To suffer," ShuîYuê answered instead

" Normally, I love dressing up and being social, but I don't like this idea today," Yìfēi complained

" I mean, same here," Xiàn Fèng agreed

" Especially not for those who we are waiting for," Yìfēi grumbled unhappy

" I finally understand your tendency to avoid these occasions, Water Master," Xiàn Fèng murmured, sympathising with ShuîYuê,

" Yeah, I wondered why you hated being dressed up and waiting for someone who you don't even remotely like," Yìfēi chimed in, totally agreeing with the Fire Master

" See, I knew you guys would understand someday," ShuîYuê sighed, rubbing her forehead.

The elementals stood outside the martial hall along with all the high-ranking officials, all dressed up like it was the new year, to welcome the Ghost King, why because Jun Wu wanted to appear hospitable,

' Well how about he stands here instead, to welcome his favourite Ghost King,' ShuîYuê had said this the second Jun Wu told them that they would be welcoming Ghost King ofcourse she had whispered it to Xiàn Fèng and Yìfēi, she didn't have the guts to say this in front of the Emperor,

Xiàn Fèng and ShuîYuê became friends too and now the three of them ( Xiàn Fèng, Yìfēi, and ShuîYuê ) complained about the injustices being done to them at the Wudu Palace getting drunk on sunflower tea, jasmine tea and lavender tea respectively.

They have been standing here for half an hour already it was good that the weather had started to cool down or else they would have been smoked in the sun, while Jun Wu ofcourse sat on his throne comfortably snacking on some fruits and drinking wine .

" They are entering the Palace gates," a guard informed, and everyone unconsciously straightened up,

True enough ten minutes later the silhouettes of four people were visible, as they neared their appreances became more clear, the first one was a tall, tanned man who was built like a bodyguard his muscles popping out, he had fiery red hair which were cut short, how rude and rebelling, emerald eyes along with plenty of scars covering his body, black pants and red robes which were hung loosely around his waist exposing his might build, an axe was also hanging to his leather waist belt, it made ShuîYuê shiver as she recalled getting her arm sliced with that very same axe, her stitches often hurt when she stretched her arm a little more than the stitches liked her to, she was more than certain she wasn't going to survive that day, he's the most dangerous man she had ever fought with, ShuîYuê had heard rumours but she could bet no one could be as ferocious as him in battle, if Yìfēi hadn't reached ShuîYuê in time, she would have been tortured to burn in the sun from excessive blood loss until someone pierced her trident in her heart ending the misery,
