259 Destroyed Reputation
"Bawahahahaha! I can't believe that a grown-up man can be so scared that he burned down his entire residence!"
The news about Prince Yang who suddenly went crazy and burned his own residence spread like wildfire in the capital. There was no one who didn't know that during important times like this, the prince was still as usual, making a ruckus.
Aside from that, there were a lot of children running from the residence. This made the people wondered about what was the reason for him to have so many young servants. Thus, the name of Prince Yang became a disgrace in the capital of Kai Kingdom.
Usually, the prince would uphold his good name, but this prince continually made his name going bad. It was like he was purposely doing it while in truth he was not doing it on purpose. He just tried to do what his instinct told him. It was too bad that his way of thinking was not good.
Soujin looked towards Yan who was laughing until his stomach hurts with a calm face. On the side, Ming Hui also felt amused by the event.
"Did you do this, Soujin?" Ming Hui looked towards the man.
"Not me. There is another person there, " Soujin answered.
Yan finally stopped laughing. He coughed up a bit."Who is it? The act this person prepared is enough to make me laugh until my stomach is completely hurt."
"..." is that the main point?
Ming Hui rolled his eyes."Who is it?"
"I don't know, " Soujin answered calmly."I only know that he has high martial arts."
Ming Hui brows creased. For Soujin to judge someone to have high martial arts, it could only mean that person martial arts are really high even for Soujin standard. From what he knew, even those veteran ordinary general couldn't enter Soujin eyes with their skill.
Yan frowned."How come there is another strong rival again? I thought that the numbers of excellent geniuses like Soujin are rare."
"I don't say that I would lose to him, " Soujin said calmly."But you two will."
Hearing that, Yan got the urge to take his sword and challenge Soujin again. During the time they were coming inside here, he had been practicing his martial arts skill. If only Soujin was weaker than him even for the tiniest bit, he would gladly beat up the other party.
Looking around, he wanted to find chess. Playing the chess, there was still a chance for him to win against Soujin.
Ming Hui coughed."You won't be able to beat him on chess anymore. He was training like a madman with Jun Min before until he never lost again."
Even against Jun Min, Yan still lost a few times. With Soujin not even losing towards Jun Min, it was clear that Yan can no longer beat him. With dejected feeling, he could only cast away the thought of getting back to Soujin.
"His clothes, do you remember them?" Ming Hui asked.
Soujin nodded. With his sharp eyesight, he could see the clothes of the other person clearly despite it was already night. In a single breath, he gave Ming Hui the description of the other party clothes.
"Can't you draw it?" Yan protested.
Ming Hui rolled his eyes."It will take too long."
He knew that Soujin could draw, but would they be willing to wait for hours just to see the description of the clothes from the people that Soujin met on that place?
"Do you recognize it?"
Ming Hui thought for a moment before turning towards Yan."Don't you travel more than me? Do you recognize it?"
"I told you, please draw it. Your description is unclear."
Yan wanted to berate Soujin again, but the other party had looked at him coldly. Sweat starting to pour out on his back. He shook his head.
"Never mind, just be a little slower."
Soujin repeated the same description and Yan listened more attentive than before. Comparing some of the clothes that he knew, Yan nodded.
"It should be the Mountain Kingdom."f𝔯𝑒e𝓌ℯ𝐛𝑛oѵel - 🅽🅽novel
"Really?" Ming Hui felt a bit skeptical. The clothes from the five big kingdoms didn't differ really much. Unless the one who saw it was someone who was highly familiar with clothes, they wouldn't be able to recognize it.
Yan nodded."The one that fitted the most is the Mountain Kingdom. Could that person be the traveler that prince mentioned?"
"No, the traveler is someone from a small kingdom. Soujin already investigated him, " Ming Hui cut his sentence."There must be a new person coming from Mountain Kingdom after us and possibly meeting the prince too."
"That prince must be drinking again. He kind of reminds me of myself, " Yan grinned.
"You're worse than him, " Ming Hui added.
"Do you need to be so rude?"
As the two of them continued their usual banter, Soujin thought about the person he met last night. For whatever reason, he felt that he had seen him before, but he couldn't remember it. Could it be that he was someone from Jun Min's side?
"Yan, you can go as Young Noble Han again if you want."
Yan snorted."Do you want me to get killed?"
The real identity of Young Noble Han has already leaked to some people in the Kai Kingdom thanks to the spy. With them knowing that he was the prince of Ming Kingdom, they wouldn't show him much courtesy anymore and probably tried to kill him because of his other identity.
Here, Yan wouldn't be so reckless as to show his real self outside. He didn't want to court death yet.
"Just stay here. Soujin needed to meet with his betrothed, " Ming Hui nodded.
Soujin face darkens exceptionally quickly. Even Yan and Ming Hui could clearly feel the murdering aura from Soujin deeply despite they were not the target. The pressure was really big and somehow Yan cursed to himself to never challenge Soujin to fight again. If the other party were to be serious, it's clear that he won't be able to survive.
On his side, even Ming Hui felt regret mentioning about this matter again. If Soujin started to be angry again, there was a possibility this entire city would be in a mess as the result. They two would surely not able to get out unscathed.
Before coming here, they were given a task from the emperor. The Kai Kingdom was offering a peace treaty with the agreement stated that they will be tied with marriage. And the person chosen to do that was Soujin with the other party was Tian Ni.
That way, the emperor thought that Soujin would accept it while in fact, Soujin preferred to choose the more reckless method. Eliminate Kai Kingdom from the map!
