The God Of Void
Chaptre 08. The wise king

Huo An and Yun Fei who were chatting were startled by the arrival of the royal soldiers, even more shocked when they heard the purpose of their arrival, which was to capture Yun Fei.

"Look! Fei was innocent, he was just trying to protect himself from the cruelty of Xue Ming!" bela Huo An's.

"Whoever or not, neither you nor us determined it!" said the soldier who stood at the front.

"Follow us to the palace or we'll take you by force!"

Yun Fei scanned the soldiers before him, their cultivation was all at the Earth Spirit realm and there was one warrior whose cultivation was at the Heaven Spirit realm, one level above him.

There were eight tiers used to measure the strength of a cultivator, namely.

Condensations

Body forging

Spirit gathering

Earth Spirit

Sky Spirit

Heaven Spirit

Saint

Emperors.

These eight levels were then further divided into nine levels, and each cultivator had to go through these nine levels first before breaking through to the next realm.

Other than those eight levels, there were still three other levels, but until now, it was still unknown whether any cultivators had managed to achieve it or not.

Even if there were, perhaps these people would not show themselves in public, as their existence could have changed the balance of power in the Cultivation World.

In other words, cultivators who had strength above those eight levels were extremely strong cultivators, and no one could imagine how powerful they were.

And, those three levels were, Martial Emperor, Heavenly Emperor and Supreme Emperor. As with the other eight levels, these three levels are also divided into nine levels.

"Are you Yun Fei?" ask the king of the city.

"True, your majesty" Yun Fei replied as he lowered his head in salute to the city king.

The city king directed a sharp look at Yun Fei while observing his appearance, "alright, what is your reason for causing chaos in my city?"

Yun Fei then explained what was really happening, he also explained if he did not have the intention to cause chaos, because what he did before was only to defend himself.

"Lied!" said Xue Ming who suddenly entered the throne hall.

"Your highness, this young man is lying and I can prove his lie!"

"really? Then try to prove your point!"

Xue Ming smiled triumphantly, then he summoned Hong Jun and the cultivators who had previously fought with Yun Fei, and their circumstances looked extremely severe.

The city king frowned when he saw the battered state of Hong Jun and the others, "who are they?"

"They are Yun Fei's victims, your highness" Xue Ming replied.

After that, Xue Ming gave the city king a false explanation, he even exaggerated his explanation, in order for Yun Fei to get even more wrong in the eyes of the city king.

Not only that, Hong Jun and those cultivators also confirmed Xue Ming's explanation, they all explained if Yun Fei had attacked them for no reason.

The city king nodded in understanding, then set his gaze on Yun Fei, "well young man, what do you want to convey now?"

Yun Fei let out a long sigh, "your highness, servant of noble taste better knows what is right and what is wrong, so servant will not explain anything."

"Of course not, your majesty. But in this city, no one can go against the noble commandments, including servants."

If it was someone else, perhaps Yun Fei had already been sentenced to a very large punishment, but not with the city king of Hufeng, because he could see the honesty in Yun Fei's gaze.

In addition, the city king also found decisiveness in every utterance of Yun Fei, although it sounded resigned, but there was something else that Yun Fei hid in every utterance.

And as a ruler, the city king could certainly read the meaning of Yun Fei's words, so he did not want to make a hasty decision.

"Alright, I will investigate this matter first" said the city king.

"What?! Your Honor, clearly this young man has made a mistake, why should he be investigated again?"

"Xue Ming, I hope that you realize your position, otherwise, I could have given you punishment for daring to question my decision!"

"I-I'm sorry, your honor."

Xue Ming clenched his fists, he really did not expect that his plan would fail just like that. Moreover, his position now was also in considerable danger.

Just like Xue Ming, Yun Fei also did not expect that the city king would make such a decision, even though he had thought that the city king would directly punish him.

"That's it, you better go now!"

They all nodded, then left the palace after paying their respects to the city king.

"Your majesty, why did your majesty let go of that young man?"

"Maybe you guys don't feel it, but I can feel it clearly, and I'm sure, that young man is innocent."

"Then, what should we do, your majesty?"

"Investigate the matter, find out what exactly happened between Xue Ming and the young man."

"Okay, your highness!"

Two black shadows darted out of the throne hall, both of them were confidants of the city king, who was also in charge of guarding the safety of the city king Hufeng.

After being outside the palace, the two of them then split up, the other one followed Yun Fei and the other one followed Xue Ming and his people.

"This young man's aura is unusual, I'd better be careful of him" muttered the man who was following Yun Fei.

Although it had been hiding well in the shadows, but the existence of the man was already realized by Yun Fei, only, Yun Fei preferred not to ignore its existence.

"Fei, how? Were you punished by your highness?" huo An asked who looked very worried.

Yun Fei shook his head softly, "his majesty did not give any punishment."

Huo An heaved a sigh of relief, he was really happy that Yun Fei was not punished by the city king, "then, what happened?"

"Your majesty decided to investigate this matter first" Yun Fei replied.

"Good, but you mustn't let your guard down, because Xue Ming is a very cunning person."

"And I'm sure, he's preparing another plan to disturb your composure."

"Leave it, because I'm ready to face it at any time" Yun Fei said.

"Well, let's go in, I've prepared some food for you."

Otherside.

What Huo An had expected was true, because right now, Xue Ming was preparing a plan to kill Yun Fei, but he did not realize that he was being spied on.

Besides, Xue Ming also expressed his frustration that the city king did not punish Yun Fei, even though he had planned everything, but it had all failed and was in vain.

"Xue Ming, you'll be severely punished for your foolish actions."
