The Adventures Of The Young Master

Jin Rou was almost planning to do a suicide mission. For the rest, it was impossible to take on the three empires alone. After all, they had laws together with them.

Of course, Jin Rou didn't expect them to believe in him. All he needed to do was do his thing and end this without so much casualties. In all Jin Rou's battle, this might be the most challenging ever. He'd be facing people on this level as him, after all!

"Now that it has been settled, let's proceed to the next agenda." Jin Rou wasn't done yet. He looked at everyone and said, "Who is the representative of Lei Clan here?"

"It is me, Your Majesty." An old man in green robe stood up. He was an ancient being that saw many gods and devils of the past, "What might His Majesty's concern regarding our humble clan?"

Truth be told, the Lei Clan was one of the strongest clans the empire had. They had a deep foundation that spanned for billions of years, being one of the ancient clans of the empire. As a matter of fact, it was much older compared to Roseville and Marison families and evenly strong as the Reiss Family.

"I have a mother and son pair in my care after saving them in Newgate Kingdom." Jin Rou said, "Of course, you might know now what I'm implying."

Old Man Lei took a deep breath. He knew what His Majesty was talking about, "Your Majesty, the woman had committed a grave offense, which is defying her ancestors for the sake of one outsider man. In our clan, we are strongly abiding by the rules and anyone who didn't follow will be shown no mercy."

The nobles here creased their brows. They knew a thing or two about the Lei Clan's issue. However, they didn't know who it was since they suppressed every information regarding that. Perhaps only the Marison Family could do so.

"I don't know about your rules and I don't care about it. But I want you to give Mrs. Lei a chance to redeem herself." Jin Rou coldly said. He was clearly not up for any negotiations and spoke, "You might have known this already but Mrs. Lei has exceptional talent in cultivation. She has a high chance of becoming a Dao Supreme, and you're willing to give her away to some random kingdoms?"

Old Man Lei was stumped to hear this. That woman had a high chance of becoming a Dao Supreme? Remember, it was the peak existences that any cultivators could achieve. Although there were still vast realms in the Dao Supreme level, being one had already granted you a respect and awe for a lifetime.

Just to this day, just how many Dao Supremes were still alive? They could only be counted in two hands probably. Take note, the Phoenix Empire had only two Dao Supremes as of now.

"I wasn't informed about this, Your Majesty..." Old Man Lei spoke in a meek tone. In truth, he just didn't know the extent of Mrs. Lei's talents. Who would have thought that it was this great?

And as for if His Majesty was telling a lie, it wasn't possible. He was in the front of all the important nobles of the empire, how could he lie in front of them? Wouldn't it tarnish and shake his position in the empire?

"But now you are informed." Jin Rou smirked, "I hope you do the right thing now and stop being prideful about your rules. There is an adage saying, 'The rules are dead while we are still alive'."

"I will remember Your Majesty's words." Old Man Lei bowed with sincerity and said, "I will take her and her son to our clan and have her with the highest position she can attain."

Everyone was surprised to hear this. In Lei Clan, the highest position could be the Clan Master position. Would he be giving it to her, then? This show of sincerity was overwhelming!

Jin Rou waved it off and said, "Do it as you see fit. As long they aren't treated badly there, I won't have any issues with your clan."

Mrs. Lei, who was watching by the sidelines, couldn't help but feel warm water threatening to flow from her eyes. Jin Rou had intentionally helped them get a chance to prove herself in the clan again. She had no hatred or grievances towards her family as they were merely following the rules strictly. Besides, she was the one who was mistaken in the first place. She had no one to blame but herself for the misfortune.

How she just wished that her first son was still alive. Thinking about it, memories flashed in her mind making her laugh and cry at the same time.

"Alright, the fourth issue has been settled. I wonder if any one of your here have problems with my arrangements? Please stand up and say so." Jin Rou roamed his gaze and asked.

Several seconds had passed yet no one stood up. It all seemed that they fully understand Jin Rou's points or perhaps they just didn't want to earn his ire by voicing their contrasting opinion out.

"It seems everyone agrees with me. Then be it." Jin Rou smiled and stood up. He opened his arms and said, "I thank everyone who attend this urgent meeting although it's already late at night. Rest assured that you will be compensated accordingly. Just ask the emperor regarding that. And, the meeting is adjourned."

Everyone stood up and took a deep bow. Jin Rou walked off to exit the room with a calm expression. All throughout the meeting, His Majesty didn't show any negative emotions a young person should have when in the front of so many important and ancient people. He carried his weight with grace that even the old fossils couldn't help but be amazed. It very looked like Jin Rou was used to this kind of attention and set ups. They were curious about what was his life in the other world but it all remained in their heads.. They didn't have the courage to ask even if they had a thousand guts to do so.
