...L.O.S.E 92 - Cheng Guan Restaurant...
Shu En continued his journey towards the Shu Empire, with a potluck of food moving towards the Han Province and flying through the river stream directly towards the Shu Empire territory.
“I can hand over the Yang Empire to Queque, meanwhile I will meet that old man!” Shu En recalled Jing Yang asking her to meet in the Green Land of Dong.
To get to the territory of the Shu Empire, the first place Shu En had to go through was the Thousand Xingma Islands. The Thousand Xingma Island was the territory of the Shu Empire that bordered directly with the Han Province.
The reason why the region was known as the Thousand Xingma Islands was because of the many islands that were in the region and formed an adjacent region.
Currently the Thousand Xingma Island was controlled by the Guang noble family and the Ma noble family. After the news of Shu Liang's death, the Shu Empire was overrun by a group of cultivators who formed a name of the Heaven's Order.
This Sky Command cultivator's ability had almost reached the God Realm thanks to Shu Liang's intervention. Even Shu Liang during life wanted to invite the members of the Heaven's Order as an Immortal, but fate said otherwise.
His death actually made the people he helped take the treasures, the throne and everything. It had been a month that the Heaven's Order wanted to expand their influence out of the Holy Island of Shu.
The Thousand Xingma Island and the Green Land of Dong were the objectives of the Heaven's Order to expand their influence. Without knowing the true heir to the throne was still alive, the Heaven's Order was using their power arbitrarily.
“Man is always blinded by power. I've met and seen people like that many times. In this place they are also the same.” Shu En muttered to himself as he watched the Thousand Xingma Islands from above the air.
This peaceful and beautiful place is very suitable to be a tourist destination for nobles and rich people. To find out more about what was going on in the Thousand Xingma Islands, Shu En decided to go downstairs by eliminating the air.
‘Baihu, Xudong, I want you to find out about the noble families that control the Thousand Xingma Islands and the group called the Sky Order.’ Through telepathy Shu En gave orders to Baihu and Xudong.
“Again you call both of us to do a stupid task like this! My pride as a demon is hurt!” baihu said as she pounced on Shu En with her adorable little form.
“It looks like you've progressed a long way from the first time we met, Milord.” Xudong noticed Shu En who looked more mature and calm compared to the last time they met.
“Do not talk much and quickly go.”
While Shu En was walking towards a tavern, Baihu and Xudong immediately walked around the territory of the Thousand Xingma Islands.
The small island surrounding the Xingma region became the reason this place was known as the Thousand Xingma Islands. This cozy and calm atmosphere made Shu En enjoy the afternoon at the Thousand Xingma Islands while eating the noodles she had ordered.
“Young Master, I rarely see you here. Are you a newcomer?” The owner of the diner asked Shu En because the young man looked handsome.
“Your appetite is huge, Young Master.” The diner waiter smiled and noticed Shu En who was enjoying their homemade noodles.
After eating, Shu En told the owner of the diner that he was a traveler looking for a young man of his age.
“I heard rumors that the heir to the throne of the Shu Empire is still alive. If true then he's my age.”
Hearing Shu En's confession certainly made the tavern owner laugh. According to the tavern owner, the Shu Empire was currently in a turbulent time.
“I heard rumors that the Dong family and the Guang family were working together to overthrow the Sky Order government. Even after the death of the previous Emperor, this country is still like this.” The owner of the diner sighed before complaining, “Entah who will be the leader, will have no effect on ordinary people like us.”
Hearing that Shu En smiled faintly. By discussing about the Heaven's Order, Shu En finally learned some information from the tavern owner and was finally able to leave with a full stomach.
“Young Master, if deign can tell your name.” The owner of the restaurant said.
“Master, remember this person in front of you will often visit here. I am Shu En.” After telling his name, Shu En's body vanished like a wind.
The waiter and the owner of the diner who was arranging the bowl were immediately shocked. The sound of a broken bowl was heard as they all accidentally dropped knowing Shu En's true identity.
“Shu... Mr? Hey, is he really the son of His Highness Shu Jiang!” The owner of the diner goes out and tries to find Shu En's whereabouts but the young man is nowhere to be found.
“Owner, it looks like something big is going to happen in this country. I hope we're all okay.”
“True, actually I was afraid if the influence of the Sky Command got to this place.”
“We can only pray our best for the sustainability of this country..”.
The owner of the diner smiled warmly at the waiter he worked with worrying about their future and the state.
“No need to worry! Tonight I will give one bowl of free noodles to all of you!”
While the atmosphere of joy in the tavern known as Cheng Guan Dining House is ongoing, the, Shu En observed the movements of several people from the top of the tallest tower in the Thousand Xingma Islands and took action to observe closely.
‘It looks like Baihu and Xudong have also found the information I was looking for.’ Shu En saturate before disappearing eve his existence, ‘When to move!’
