“I really don’t have the time!” Tang Tian explained to Hand Towel as if his life depended on it: “I need to go….”
Hand Towel’s persevered and cut him: “I only need 10 minutes, 10 minutes! With such a gathering, if your Majesty doesn’t appear, then that’s wrong on every level! With such a grand meeting, with so many diplomats from so many constellations, all of them are all important figures in their constellations, and today is extremely important for the development of Ursa Major Constellation, if Your Majesty doesn’t even appear, how can we explain ourselves!”
Hand Towel had the expression of “If Master is so determined, then this subject will demonstrate his sincerity by dying”, causing Tang Tian to feel a headache, Hand Towel was good at everything, but once he becomes stubborn, then even 9 bulls cannot pull him back.
(TN: Just a reminder, Hand Towel is Long Shou Jing from Draco Constellation!)
Hand Towel held onto Tang Tian firmly, and would not release his hand no matter what, while Pi Pa was snickering by the side.
If it was another person, Tang Tian would have long beat him up, but Hand Towel had a weak body, and usually, Tang Tian did not dare to touch him, in case Hand Towel was suddenly lacking with an arm or a leg, that would be big trouble.
Tang Tian was stunned there with Hand Towel tightly grabbing onto him, he did not dare use any strength, and could only succumb to him: “Ok, 10 minutes, only 10 minutes and not 1 second more! We will say it first, only 10 minutes!”
Hand Towel immediately repeated: “I only need 10 minutes of Your Majesty’s time!”
That’s good that’s good…
Tang Tian was celebrating in his heart, he was only 15 minutes away from the appointed meeting with Qian Hui. If it was already time, Tang Tian would not even care about what Constellation’s diplomatic group, compared to Qian Hui, those are nothing!
Under Hand Towels pulls, Tang Tian brought a frozen smile and appeared in front of everybody.
“Ah ha, Hello everybody!”
“How’re you, how’re you!”
“Yes yes yes, it’s a pleasure to meet you, it’s a pleasure to meet you!”
……
Tang Tian dealt with everyone like a machine, the surging number of people appearing before him, the faces that were far suddenly came close, causing him to be dazzled, the neverending voices caused Tang Tian’s head to feel pain and weary. In just a bit, Tang Tian’s mind was already buzzing, he felt faint, his consciousness was going off, as though he was in a battlefield and enemies were everywhere, surging and surrounding him tightly.
I feel like sweeping this entire place cleanly…
Luckily, Tang Tian did not lose himself, as he knew it was a banquet.
Rashness is the devil, rashness is the devil….but the devil is so powerful…what do I do….
Tang Tian continued to cram a smile on his face, but his heart was counting down the time well, my killing technique countdown is…..no, wait, it’s 10 minutes countdown timing…..
Compared to him, Crane who was at the side had a gentle and graceful smile that had elegance cleansed with the spring wind. His elegant demeanor was graceful, and was absolutely attracting many eyeballs. Ling Xu was dressed in his Silver Frost Mount’s white robes covered with gold threads, standing there as straight as a spear with his cold face, a graceful and ruthless teacher-in-training look, only keeping Wei Wei An who was by his side in his mind.
Sad, sad Tang Tian, was being pulled to each group, Hand Towel who was clutching on his arm tightly afraid that he would slip away.
“Hey, Tang Tian!”
Andre’s striking blonde hair captured Tang Tian’s eyes, finally meeting someone he was familiar with, Tang Tian heaved a sigh of relief: “Andre, you came!”
“Your expression doesn’t look like you’re enjoying this!” Andre said straightforwardly. Out of all the people who addressed him as “Your Majesty”, he was the first one to call Tang Tian by name. The two had met before, and this would make them feel closer.
“Actually I am more willing to go out and fight!” Tang Tian revealed an even more bitter smile.
Countdown, eight minutes….
“That’s right, the battlefield is the home of men!” Andre had a look of understanding, then pushed Scarlett who was behind him forward: “This is my younger sister Scarlett.”
When Scarlett appeared, it immediately attracted countless eyes, the people around Tang Tian all suddenly quietened down.
Scarlett was extremely beautiful, after going through meticulous make up, her curly blond hair and blue satin evening gown depicted the image of the sun spraying golden light all across the clear and crystalline waters surface. Her exposed shoulders revealed her delicate collarbone with her full soft breasts, which was sexy and enticing. Her tightened waist drew out the devilish contours and curves of her body, causing people to be incapable of removing their eyes from her.
“Hello, godlike young man!”
The warm and sexual voice exhaled some steam, seducing people’s minds.
The gold light aura and the luster of the evening gown under the moonlight, was exceptionally reflective, causing Tang Tian to be unable to see clearly, adding the sudden silence, Scarlett’s voice caused Tang Tian’s heart who was constantly chanting “Rashness is the devil” to jump in shock.
What an aura!
Did the big devil come out….
Tang Tian’s eyes lit up with a light aura, almost pasting a technique onto the face in his vision that was sparkling. When Tang Tian finally saw that it was a lady’s face, he suddenly reacted as he dangerously pushed down the devil in his heart…..
What a terrifying battlefield….
Tang Tian’s back was dripping with cold sweat, the scene in front of him was the most terrifying kind of battlefield. There were so many strange enemies there, and he still had to struggle against the “bedevilment” in his heart!
I almost got defeated by the devil….so dangerous…..
Tang Tian had lingering fears inside of him, he forced out a smile as he greeted Scarlett: “Hello, Scarlett.”
Countdown time remaining, seven and a half minutes.
Why is time crawling by so slowly….
Tang Tian had not felt “Time crawling” for a long time, in such a messy place, it truly was torturous. He made a promise to himself not to participate in any banquets ever again. He would rather train, or fight, than to come back to such a scary place.
“Is Young God’s body not feeling well?” Scarlett asked in concern: “Your face seems to be slightly white.”
Her voice was extremely warm and alluring, and along with the concern, all the men around revealed intoxicated expressions.
It was because I almost killed you…..
Tang Tian almost blurted out, alright, Scarlett is innocent, but, this is not the way to go…..his face was revealing a smile that was uglier than crying: “Haha, I am slightly unwell, you guys continue having fun, I will go greet everyone once.”
Only seven minutes left!
Before the two of them could reply, Tang Tian secretly carried Hand Towel who was gripping onto him tightly with one hand, and used the other hand to push aside the people ahead of him in the crowd, very quickly squeezing out, and then he asked Hand Towel in a soft voice: “There’s still seven minutes, quick tell me, who else do I need to greet?”
Seeing Tang Tian’s back view, Scarlett’s expression became cold, she rejected all the men that had attempted to fool around with her, and followed Andre to the corner.
Her eyes never left Tang Tian.
What? You were defeated right.” Andre lifted his cup and looked at Tang Tian’s exhausted figure, and chuckled: “It’s been so long since I saw your defeated expression.”
Scarlett bit on her lips tightly, she could not believe on what had happened. From the start, Tang Tian barely even looked at her, and she had never experienced such a situation before.
She had spent immense effort and thought on doing her makeup and on how to greet him. After thinking for so long, she did not expect Tang Tian to be unmoved. She could see the smile that Tang Tian was giving her was completely forced and done with difficulty.
How long had it been since she was faced with such a cold greeting?
Never before!
From young, as long as she smiled, countless people would be willing to do everything for her. Her looks and beauty, allowed her to be the world’s most special person, and she believed she could subdue the world.
But, she had failed.
She actually failed!
This struck her hard, as she held onto the cup tightly, unknowingly using too much strength, causing her fingers to become white.
The scene that transpired was seen by many people. Ming Yue wrinkled her eyebrows, in truth, Scarlett was truly dazzling and beautiful, to the point that even she was stunned, but Tang Tian did not even look at her. She looked at Yu Ji who was beside her, although Yu Ji was completely different from Scarlett, but Ming Yue had the feeling that the higher up’s thoughts did not have much probability of success.
Tang Tian was already very dazzled, and could not recognize anyone, and the only thing that he did not mess up was the timer he had in his mind.
Only two minutes left.
Suddenly, a voice came into his ear.
“I wonder if Your Majesty knows Senior Gui Wu?” A red head man saw that Tang Tian’s gaze had landed on him, and half rose to speak: “I am Onyx Soul, Gan Hao.”
Senior Gui Wu!
Tang Tian’s whose mind was numb suddenly became more awake.
Gan Hao did not lower his voice intentionally, and people around heard him, immediately becoming stunned. Gui Wu was hailed as Onyx Soul’s top three saints, for Gan Hao to suddenly ask that, it was like throwing a bomb amongst the crowd.
Gui Wuis identity was greatly revered, to be able to be ranked in the top three in Onyx Soul history, such a strong existence is something unimaginable today.
This caused people to have various of conjectures, did Tang Tian and senior Gui Wu have any relation?
The elder’s of Libra Constellation’s diplomatic group all had light in their eyes. They had always been guessing, why would Ursa Major Constellation have so many treasures, and with Gan Hao’s question, it immediately made them see the possibility.
The place immediately quieted down.
Many people were secretly excited, from the start, Tang Tian’s identity and background had always been secret, and no one knew of him. But Tang Tian actually rose so abruptly, with such an astonishing speed that shocked the world. Many people secretly guessed that Tang Tian definitely came from a big background, if not, how could he become like an overlord.
“Senior Gui Wu?” Tang Tian subconsciously asked him back.
Although he had struggled out from the confusion, but his focus was still on the countdown, only a minute and forty five seconds left….
“That’s right!” Gan Hao said calmly without fear, his eyes burning: “The renowned sword Drunk on Saint Blood was in Senior Gui Wu’s collection, Onyx Soul has it verified with explicit records, i hope that Your Majesty will explain, why is Drunk on Saint Blood in Jing Hao’s hands?”
“Explain?” Tang Tian looked at Gan Hao in a strange manner: “Why do I need to explain?”
Gan Hao squinted his eyes: “Your Majesty, Senior Gui Wu is a godly saint in Onyx Soul! Senior Gui Wu’s collections, is something my Onyx Soul is definitely unable to sit still seeing it landing into someone else’s hands.”
A minute and twenty seconds left…..
Before Tang Tian spoke out, Long Shou Jing who was always holding onto Tang Tian immediately stood up without hesitation and said coldly: “Firstly, do you have the qualifications to represent Onyx Soul? Secondly, is Onyx Soul trying to threaten my Ursa Major Constellation?”
Gan Hao waved his hand and laughed: “Why do you say such things, Master Shou Jing? I just want to clarify, If i have offended you, I hope that you forgive me.”
One more minute….
Tang Tian who was already inattentive was already prepared to leave.
Gan Hao’s eyes became a slit, seeing that Tang Tian had turned to leave, he shouted: “Your Majesty please wait! I…..”
The killing intent in Tang Tian’s heart was finally unable to be suppressed!
