XH 262 - Gu Dan already has a new King

When Long Zhu was invited into Wugui Mingzhi's visiting room, Feng Jiu and Qiang Laohu had already arrived and gathered in a room.

Long Zhu was astonished at Feng Jiu's unexpected presence, which could be seen when he missed a step, but quickly got over his surprise.

"If you would have waited, I could have brought you along." Feng Jiu laughed lightly.

Removing his traveling cloak, Long Zhu took a seat beside Wugui Mingzhi, who poured a cup of warm tea for him.

After saying a brief 'thank you' to Wugui Mingzhi, Long Zhu answered Feng Jiu, "I do not know when you would wake up, but apparently I have underestimated you."

"That you did," Feng Jiu chuckled, not offended at Long Zhu's conjecture.

Being the celestial beast's vassal, Feng Jiu has the perk of traveling around in just a blink of an eye, similar to the art of teleportation. The other vassals of other celestial beasts could do it too. But the only condition for the skill to activate was that place must be where they went to before.

"Vermillion bird itself reached out to speak to me and so I assume it's a piece of important news that needs to be known by others quickly and to plan what we should do next," Long Zhu explained.

"I know." Feng Jiu smiled to tell him that she did not mind it, and was thankful for his willingness to act quickly.

Among them, only Long Zhu was not a vassal of a celestial beast. He was willing to be Azure Dragon's next vassal, for the sake of protecting the Guilin Kingdom, but the dragon knew that his intention was noble, but his heart was not entirely willing.

Fortunately, the Azure Dragon received a message from the Creator, that a suitable vassal will appear in the future and it saved Long Zhu from being tied up with a burden that was not his fate.

The other vassals had told Long Zhu he could leave the demon gate matters to them, and focus on his life as a prince, but he refused. Even if his strength was immeasurable to the other vassals, he still wished to help as much as he could.

"The White Tiger told me that the demon is not in the Bai Hu Kingdom." Qiang Laohu grumbled, unsatisfied.

"Black turtle says the same, the demon is not in the Xuanwu Kingdom," Wugui Mingzhi added.

"I have sent a missive to my eighth brother to ask Azure Dragon about this." He was still waiting for Heise's reply.

"The demon would not possibly hide in the Guilin Kingdom, as long as she knew she could be sensed by the celestial beasts," Wugui Mingzhi said, but secretly hoped the demon did not know about this quirk and quickly got caught so that they can settle the potential threat quickly.

The star had told him the longer the demon was on loose, the closer the disastrous star will be towards the other stars. The disastrous star had almost completely swallowed the star known as Liu Chu Chu and showed signs of greediness to swallow other bright stars around it.

"If that demon isn't in the Four Kingdom, where is she?" Qiang Laohu scratched his head. "The gate is right in the middle of the Four Kingdom, but my men did not see any newcomers around the place."

"Gu Dan country is also in the middle of the Four Kingdom."

Qiang Laohu stopped rubbing his head and stared at Long Zhu. "You think she is hiding in Gu Dan?"

Although the Four Kingdoms were linked by a large bridge, built close to one another, they did not occupy all the space, such as the center. Those lands that the Four Kingdoms had not occupied were not under their jurisdiction and the celestial beasts' influence could not reach those lands.
