Hail the King Chapter 444

Chapter 444: The Guess That Was Close to the Truth (Part One)

[Snow Mountain Hermit] shook his head and said, "Since your goal is not to become the strongest warrior, why should I punish you? However, you have to remember one thing; only the true masters control everything. When Emperor Ya.s.sin defeated all the empires in the region and created a powerful empire from a small affiliated kingdom, he didn't rely on his political affiliations, strategic calculations, his military, and the population of Zenit; he only relied on his powerful strength. Your father saved Jax that was on the brink of collapse and made it into one of the most powerful empires in the region; he relied on his strength as well. If you look around all the empires, Zenit, Spartax, Jax, Eindhoven, St. Germain…… their uprise and fall are all closely tied to the individual strength of their emperors and the top-tier warriors they had. Since you want to become the emperor of Jax, you should put more effort into cultivation. Otherwise, even if you inherited your father's throne, you would lose a lot of power, and Jax would fall into a state of chaos due to your weakness."

This was Fairenton's first time hearing these honest and caring words from his master, and he was touched and felt guilty at the same time.

What [Snow Mountain Hermit] told him were all new to him! He never thought about it that way, and people around him never said that to him as well. In fact, his master's viewpoint was almost on the opposite spectrum of the popular ideas. However, Fairenton knew that his master wasn't lying to him. After he thought about the examples his master gave, he felt like his master was correct. Perhaps only the people at higher levels could see the world through a more transparent lens.

"I……. I got it," Fairenton bowed and thanked his master.

The man in red sighed and said after observing Fairenton's expression, "I hope you mean what you said. In this world, cultivation is everything."

After he said that, he changed the topic and asked, "What is with the King of Chambord? Tell me, when did such a monster appear in Zenit? Why haven't I heard of his name in the last few years?"

"Yes, master. This King of Chambord only came into power recently. According to the intelligence report I got from the Military Headquarter of Jax, it seems like this man's history is a legend of its own……" Fairenton got serious and told this man in red everything he knew. Lastly, he added, "This man is great at hiding his true strength. Many people believed that he is only a Six-Star Warrior…… but from what happened today, we know that he is at least a peak Nine-Star Warrior…… Not sure if he is still hiding some of his strength……"

"You mean this man was an idiot before 18? He didn't even have control of his kingdom, and he didn't know anything about cultivation?" lights appeared in [Snow Mountain Hermit]'s eyes as he thought of something.

"According to the information I got from multiple sources, that seems to be the case," although Fairenton couldn't believe it either, he knew that the information he got wasn't wrong.

"That is impossible!" both Modoc and Tony yelled.

"I'm only guessing, but this man has a lot of secrets…… hidden strength? I don't think so. Maybe it is not that he is hiding his strength; perhaps it is just that his strength is increasing at an insane speed all the time, and all the information you got is inaccurate due to the time delay. According to what you said, he was a Six-Star Warrior in the recent report, he was only a bit more powerful than you when he met you, and he is able to defeat four of your Senior Brothers who are all Nine-Star and Tony who is a Moon-Cla.s.s Elite easily…… it seems like anyone who is under level 5 low-tier New Moon couldn't win against him……" lights flashed in [Snow Mountain Hermit]'s eyes when he said that; no one knew what he was thinking about.

"Since this is the case, why didn't master kill him today?" Tony's jealous and angry expression destroyed his handsome face. He was getting uncomfortable when Fairenton started to mention King Alexander's name, and he couldn't hold back his jealousy and the slight fear after hearing the comments [Snow Mountain Hermit] had for Fei.

"I said that you need to sharpen your warrior confidence by defeating him. I only taught him a lesson today," the man in red scolded.

After that, he smiled and continued, "However, I didn't expect to meet an old friend of mine."

"Old friend? You mean that mysterious mage in Dual-Flags City? He is your friend?" Fairenton asked.

The man in red nodded and said, "Yeah, him. It has been many years. A lot of people thought he died, but he is lively and well. Hehe, it is time for us to clear up the past……"

Chapter 444: The Guess That Was Close to the Truth (Part Two)

Suddenly, [Snow Mountain Hermit]'s expression turned serious as he said to Fairenton, "You shouldn't siege the city in the next few days. If I'm not wrong, more and more masters would be coming here in the next three days. Even your mysterious father Emperor Fuji might even come here and try out his luck. Those influential figures in Zenit and other surrounding empires would also come here……. Haha! By then, this isolated desert would become interesting!"

"What?" this news shocked all of the other three people in the tent; they couldn't think straight for a moment.

"You guys would know what I mean soon. In the next three days, try to adjust your states and make sure you are at your peaks. I will take you guys to somewhere three days later. Ok, that is that. You guys can back out now," [Snow Mountain Hermit] waved his hand and closed his eyes.

"Yes, master!" the three of them bowed and left the tent.

As a Moon-Cla.s.s Elite, Tony wanted to show off his power today. However, the reality slapped him in the face. Besides, since he didn't have the bloodline of Jax in his body, he didn't like Modoc and Fairenton. After he sneered, he turned around and left coldly.

The head disciple of Big Snow Mountain, Modoc, only shook his head in silence.

Just like many other disciples in Big Snow Mountain, he also didn't know why their master treated Tony so well. Tony wasn't that talented and was quite arrogant, but [Snow Mountain Hermit] was willing to use a lot of resources and his own Warrior Energy to turn Tony into a Moon-Cla.s.s Elite from a Six-Star Warrior. In their minds, all the precious potions and magic gems were wasted.

"Junior Brother, be careful in the next few days; something big is going to happen. Although Master didn't say anything, you should inform the Military Headquarter about this," just like Fairenton, Modoc who didn't talk much was also a loyal member of Jax who wanted Jax to become the most influential empire in the region. Therefore, the first thing he thought about was the benefit of Jax.

"Ah?…… oh, ok…… trust me, Senior Brother. I will send scouts to inform the empire about this right away," Fairenton replied casually; it felt like he was thinking about something else.

He could almost guess what was going to happen; he knew it was probably related to the underground ocean and those mysterious structures at the bottom. The strange behavior of the water and the report from Inle both indicated that there was a Mythical Ruin at the bottom of the ocean. If this was the case, this news could attract all the masters from the region.

Fairenton wanted to keep it a secret and try to explore it slowly, but it seemed like it was impossible to keep it all to him now.

What Fairenton could do now was to prepare and help [Snow Mountain Hermit] to get more benefits from the Mythical Ruins.

After Modoc said his farewell, he went into his tent to cultivate.

The prince, on the other hand, walked to his tent with a lot of mental burdens. "No wonder Master came here with all the top-tier warriors from Big Snow Mountain. His aim is the Mythical Ruins at the bottom of the ocean, and I got helped today because I was lucky……" he thought.

"Your Highness!! Terrible news……" all of a sudden, a scout charged over on his mount as he yelled.

"Shut up! What is going on? Why are you panicking?" although Fairenton treasured his soldiers, he got angry after hearing this. His troops failed in the siege today, and the morale was already low. If this scout continued to yell and spread the bad news, it would affect the confidence even more.

As if he figured out that he was doing something wrong, that scout instantly closed his mouth and hopped off of his mount.

"What is going on?" Fairenton waved his hand, and his Warrior Energy spread out and isolated any sound from being heard by other.
