Weapon seller in the world of magic

At around 11 o’clock in the morning, the light multirole vehicle arrived at the royal palace.

Western Moon’s Prime Minister Zhu and other important officials were waiting for him at the entrance.

As Mark slide down the window and looked outside, he saw the familiar face. He opened the door and stepped outside while telling the remaining people to stay inside.

”Greetings, Lord Lu.” Zhu Jianhong gave a 90-degree bow alongside the other soldiers stationed there. Mark was never greeted with this much respect before. So, he was a little bit taken aback but controlled his calm expression and nodded, ”Thank you for the hospitality, Mr. Zhu. Shall we go?”

As the soldiers moved aside, Mark got back into the vehicle and drove through the entrance, eventually reaching the impressive white marble building, shining brightly.

The King, the princess, the uncomfortable Queen, and another uncomfortable prince who is the nephew of the king; all of them appeared to be waiting outside the palace as the doors of the vehicle opened and the people got outside.

In an instant, a trace of surprise appeared on several of them. They were only prepared to welcome Mark and probably his servants.

But, the King never expected that alongside Mark, there will be others that he didn’t know.

There’s his beautiful fiancée who appeared to have lost in thoughts while staring at Shen Ling; there’s an average build but has knight’s armor from head to toe and this guy is even in the 7-circle realm; a middle-aged looking fellow who gives off the same vibe of a Supreme realm expert that he once met; a cute kitten but is of emperor grade that he heard of; finally, a beast king of the legendary realm.

Just the manticore is alone to turn the whole kingdom upside down. But, why did Mark bring such powerful figures to his palace and intimidate them when this was a friendly visit? The king didn’t understand Mark’s motives.

On the other hand, Shen Ling’s smile only grew wider as she saw the group. She wasn’t that affected by them at all.

The King greeted them and escorted everyone into the palace. They sat down in the main room that is connected to the entrance hall. The spotless room was decorated with floral wallpapers, high-quality paintings on them, plaster decorations for the ceiling, crystal chandeliers, etc…

As this isn’t the first time he came here, Mark could see the changes. But, he wasn’t as attentive to it as Song Yue or the golden-furred kitten. Mark’s focus is on the king.

Being familiar with Shen Niu, he made the introductions of his people. He introduced Lan Ju as Wu Weibao in order to hide his relation to the Lan sect.

The instant he heard the name, Shen Niu cupped his fists immediately and greeted him. Obviously, as a ruler of a kingdom, he would know what happened in the neighboring territories. This was also why he was giving so much respect to Mark.

And that also means that he heard of Wu Weibao’s name. He suspected it when he saw him at the entrance but now that he confirmed his identity, it became difficult for the king to keep his calm in Lan Ju’s presence.

”Actually… we would have invited you… invited you in person for the favor… the help you knowingly… I mean, unknowingly did it on us. I mean the Church of Doom… you killed them… Sorry, I’m just… because of the heat you know… Hahaha…”

As the king suddenly turned into a timid person, confusing Mark and others, Princess Shen Ling took over the position of the host and spoke, ”What my father wants to say is that once again you did a favor to our kingdom by taking out the elders of the Church of Doom.”

”It’s not a big deal.” Mark waved his hand in response, understanding why the king suddenly became tense. He further said to the King, ”as long as their leader is alive, the threat still exists. I actually didn’t know that he was there, at that time. Or else, we would pursue him and kill him for sure. Anyway, sooner or later, I will finish the job. So, you don’t need to worry about it, King Shen Niu.”

”I hope so…” the King let out an awkward smile but the princess appeared to have different opinions. ”No, Mr. Lu. It’s not that simple. No disrespect to Venerable Wu but even a demigod will be helpless if he wants to enter the Tower of Doom and kill Yan Hai.”

”What do you mean?” Mark furrowed his brows. Isn’t the church of doom’s leader only a Supreme realm expert? Is there anything special about this tower? Defense skills like his store, perhaps? He wondered.

The princess then looked at her mother, who sat quietly like she doesn’t even exist, ”It is best if she explains it.”

The Queen was slightly surprised by how her daughter suddenly pushed her into the talk. She looked at her husband, who suddenly frown at the mention of her name, and then spoke, ”The elders of the church of doom speak of the existence of the ancient guardian who came to this land following Yan Hai.

The tower of doom wasn’t actually constructed by the builders like the public thinks it is. It actually came along with this ancient guardian in the form of miniature size.

The tower of doom is the disguised form of the divine grade weapon of the ancient guardian, who is said to sleep in his special coffin all the time in order to prolong his life and look for a way to break through and become immortal.

No one has any idea of the abilities of the tower but one thing is for sure. It is that every elder of the church believes that as long as they are in the tower, they are safe unless an immortal from another world is attacking them.

But, forget about immortals, our world didn’t even have a sufficient number of Supreme realm experts.”

”Okay, you have said enough, Queen Tan.” The King responded coldly, addressing her in a formal way, as soon her explanation was finished. Mark caught Shen Ling slightly smiling and when their eyes met, she quickly wiped it off away from her face.

She knew that his hatred for her will remove his suddenly developed timidness because of the mysterious expert. So, she involved her mother in the conversation. And just as she expected, King Shen Niu returned to his usual self and joined the conversation. ”Anyway, with the deaths of several elders, Yan Hai won’t act for a while. But, the real problem is the Dragon Empire. Mr. Lu, I won’t ask whether you are responsible for the deaths of the Tang Dynasty’s ancestor, supreme commander, and his men, but if I were you, I would be careful.

To my knowledge, only six demigod realm beings exist in this world. Of them, four are only beasts namely, the zheng of Kunyu, the Kun of the ocean, the Werewolf lord of the beast empire, and the dragon emperor of the Bloodhill.

Of the remaining two, one is the ancient guardian of the church of doom, and the other is the founder of the dragon empire, Tang Yuan. And the current emperor of the Tang Dynasty wouldn’t keep silent after hearing about the death of his ancestor. We shouldn’t be surprised if he bothers Tang Yuan to action personally.”

After listening to all the explanations, Mark only commented one word, ”interesting.”
