Chapter 100 Heavy Strike (1)_1
"The principal has sent me to inform you that the organizers have scheduled both the team competition from 10 to 5 and the individual competition from 20 to 10 for tomorrow morning,"
"Hmm? Why?" Dugu Qianye wondered, and the others were also puzzled.
"I heard that the Saint Heir from the Divine Temple has arrived, and this arrangement was at his behest."
"The Saint Heir from the Divine Temple? Yun Jin?" Dugu Qianye asked, "Why has he come?"
She was not the only one confused; His Majesty Cangqiong was likewise unaware. He had returned to the grand hall at noon, still recovering from the rage over the announced results of today’s competition, when a guard came to report the arrival of the Saint Heir from the Divine Temple. Therefore, he had to promptly leave his seat, still warm, to go out of the Imperial Palace to welcome the guest. As he approached the palace gates, he saw a delicate carriage drawn by two white deer horses slowly approaching, flanked by four Phantom Emperors, with twenty young men and women in white robes following behind.
"Unaware of the esteemed Saint Heir’s arrival, Cangqiong failed to greet you from afar. I hope the Saint Heir will forgive this oversight," Cangqiong said, bending his body to bow. Behind him were ministers and envoys from various countries who had hurried over.
"Please rise, everyone. It was I who visited suddenly, causing inconvenience to His Majesty Cangqiong,"
A voice came from inside the carriage, clear as a mountain spring, instantly refreshing the hearts of those who heard it. As everyone rose upon this prompt, they lifted their eyes to see a slender and fair hand leisurely pull back the carriage curtain, followed by a white figure appearing before them all. Clad in a white robe, with black hair flowing like ribbons, gentle and exquisite features, his face bore a sacred smile, and his tender gaze was as soothing as being in sunlight. He merely stood there quietly, but it was as if he were standing upon a pure lotus, exuding a lofty purity that commanded respect and forbade desecration.
A young girl walked in front of the carriage and took a Jade Stool out of a Space Ring to place on the ground. Yun Jin stepped onto the Jade Stool and elegantly descended, making his way in front of His Majesty Cangqiong.
Yun Jin offered a courteous bow to His Majesty Cangqiong and said, "I have been tasked by the Hall Master to carry out a mission, and as I was passing by Cangqiong Empire, I heard about the ongoing competition between the four empires, so I came to have a look. I won’t cause any trouble for your country."
