Chapter 847: Separate Ways - Part 2
After handing the report to Yeon Hee, Lu An observed the woman's expression.
She clearly did not expect her friends would be here, the enemy's territory,
after she sacriced herself for them. The shock and worries were apparent on
her face.
Ding!
Then he received a message notication. He opened the notication, and it was
a message from Sister Mengyao. He read the message and was surprised by the
content as Zhang Mengyao asked him to bring Yeon to the main building. Lu An
did not hide the message from Yeon Hee as he shared it with her, "It seems you
will meet your friends, Yeon Hee."
Yeon Hee read the message. Instead of being happy as he was able to meet with
her friends, she was more concerned. It was uncertain what the woman called
Zhang Mengyao wanted to do to her and her friends, "Do you want to meet
them?" Lu An asked Yeon, and he added at the end of his words, "This may be
your last chance to meet them in your life."
Yeon Hee shook her head furiously as she was afraid the worst thing would
happen to her friends if she met them. This might be a test for her, and if she
chose to meet her friends, the Tang Empire would kill all her friends. She would
rather not meet with her friends at that cost.
"Oh, unfortunately, you can't decline this," Lu An shared the second message
from Zhang Mengyao. Reading the message, Yeon Hee's countenance paled out
of fear. Of course, there was no threat in the message as it only said meeting her
friends was not an option but an order. It meant she had to meet her friends.
"I have been in this room for too long, so might as well get some fresh air," Lu
An stood up from the chair and walked to the exit, "Follow me, but you must
remember the deal between you and Your Majesty Emperor. The reason your
friends are still alive is that we honor the agreement. If you break the
agreement, then only one fate awaits your friends."
Yeon Hee's body inched slightly when she heard the last part. Deep inside, she
wanted to run away from this place. There was nothing that bound her to this
place, no system contract or anything. With her ability, she could escape easily,
at least, that was what was in her mind. However, she did not dare to take the
risk.

Earlier in the waiting room
"Can you explain in detail the meaning of this, Chief Park Nam Hoon?" Zhang
Mengyao's icy tone sent a chill to Park Nam Hoon's spine. The moment he saw
Zhang Mengyao's expression, he immediately regretted his decision to bring
The Haven to the main base, 'I should have asked rst before bringing them
here.' But the ice had melted; he could not escape from this, but he was
thinking for the right excuse to come out from the current predicament. This
was obviously a minus point for the Korea Sub Region.
"I apologize for my impertinence, Supreme General Zhang. I should have asked
your permission before bringing them with me," Park Nam Hoon braced
himself to apologize and bowed his head. Yoo Kwang Sung and Song Shi Eun
also bowed their heads, "I am doing this to repay their kindness for helping the
Legion Guild in the early days. I hope for your generosity for my impudence,
Supreme General Zhang Mengyao."
Park Nam Hoon paused there, waiting for Zhang Mengyao's response.
However, Zhang Mengyao said nothing, which made him nervous, but he still
continued, "I bring them here to talk with Your Majesty, that's it. They just
want to have a talk with Your Majesty Emperor to solve the misunderstanding
that happened last night."
"What if they come to assassinate The Emperor? What if they have something
that can kill Your Majesty Tang Shaoyang? Will The Legion Guild take the
responsibility if that happens, Chief Park Nam Hoon?" Zhang Mengyao stared
at The Haven's leader, Min Soo when he was about to interrupt her. Min Soo
inched slightly and closed his mouth immediately.
"You should know more than me what happened between Your Majesty and
The Haven last night, and yet you still bring them to the main base. Are you a
fool or just too naive, Chief Park Nam Hoon?" Zhang Mengyao's cold words
silenced Park Nam Hoon.
The Legion Guild Leader opened and closed his mouth again as he did not know
what to say. He did not think that far because of the show of The Emperor's
power last night. He thought there was no way the Haven could assassinate The
Emperor. But he now thought about it. There were a lot of unknown things he
did not know, and maybe The Haven had something that could kill The
Emperor. He did not think that far before.
"I will overlook your mistake just this once, the rst and the last time. If the
same thing happened, then...." Zhang Mengyao did not nish her words, but
that was enough to scare Park Nam Hoon, Song Shi Eun, and Yoo Kwang Sung.
If they lost the Tang Empire's support, they should consider disbanding the
guild. Even if the Tang Empire did not destroy them by cutting ties, the World
Government would.
The three people stood and bowed their heads to Zhang Mengyao, "We are
grateful for Supreme General generosity." After that, Park Nam Hoon raised his
and turned toward Min Soo and the Haven's members, "Shall I escort them out,
Supreme General Zhang?"
"There's no need. Since they are here, I will have a chat with them," Zhang
Mengyao shook her head, "Just sit there!" The three did not know why Zhang
Mengyao wanted them to stay, but they followed the order without questioning
it.
"I have a gist of what you want to talk about with The Emperor, but he is not
someone you can meet just because you want to meet him," Zhang Mengyao
turned toward Min Soo, "But I will listen to you. You have ve minutes to
convince me."
"We will do everything for the Tang Empire, but in exchange, we want The
Tang Empire to return Yeon Hee to us," Min Soo did not hesitate to speak what
was in his mind. "As for Dae-Jung who has oended The Emperor, I have killed
him with my own hand."
"Can you prove it? I want proof that the man called Dae-Jung is dead," Zhang
Mengyao stared at Min Soo's eyes, and the latter inched. Min Soo looked away
from Zhang Mengyao before realizing his mistake and looking back at Zhang
Mengyao.
"You can't convince me with a lie," Zhang Mengyao shook her head, "Also,
what can you do for the Tang Empire? Do you think we lack manpower? Call
Revalor and Legion Commander Moonsong, Origin,"
The door of the waiting room opened as two gures entered the waiting room,
"Do you need something from us, Supreme General Zhang?" The Moonlight
Rabbit Chief and the former Elven King bowed toward Zhang Mengyao.
"I am sorry to bother you two, but can you direct your aura to these people?"
Zhang Mengyao pointed at Min Soo and his friends. Moonsong and Revalor did
not question the order as they directed their auras to Min Soo and the Haven
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmembers. Out of eleven people, eight of them fell o the chair as horror and
dread plastered on their faces. "Thank you for your assistance. You can leave
now."
Revalor and Moonsong bowed and left the waiting room. Zhang Mengyao just
showed The Haven the reality, "Do you think you have enough power to make
the exchange? While the Epic Rank is amazing for the small faction, you guys
are nothing in The Tang Empire's eyes. We have a lot of people stronger than
The Haven; why would we want you?"
The deep silence followed, but Min Soo still gritted his teeth as he did not want
to go back empty-handed. This was his only chance to get Yeon Hee back
because he would not be able to visit this place again if he left now.
"It seems that's not enough to convince you," Zhang Mengyao shook her head
once more, "Well, in fact, Yeon Hee can leave this place anytime if she wants to.
We did not force her to sign the System Contract or take the Oath Ceremony.
There's nothing that binds her with Your Majesty or The Emperor."
"LIE!" Min Soo immediately refuted as he did not believe it. He believed the
Tang Empire must force her to sign the System Contract, or else she would
escape already if there was nothing binding her. He knew her ability and class;
it should be easy for her to escape from this place. The fact that she did not run
away, there must be something that bound her, "You can't convince me with a
lie!" Min Soo returned Zhang Mengyao's words.
Zhang Mengyao shrugged, "You will know directly from the person herself. She
should be here soon. As long as you can convince her to leave with you, then we
will not stop to bring her away." She had just nished her words, and the door
opened. Lu An and Yeon Hee entered the waiting room.
Min Soo immediately got up from the chair when he saw the girl enter the
room. He was about to rush toward her, but suddenly a young man appeared
right before him. He subconsciously raised his hands and was about to push the
young man away, but his hands were pushing the empty air. He turned his
head, and the young man was already sitting next to Zhang Mengyao.
Min Soo shook his head as his mind was on Yeon Hee right now, "Let's leave,
Yeon Hee. Let's leave this place with us." He walked toward his girlfriend and
smiled. When he was about to hug her, Yeon Hee surprisingly pushed him away.
"No, I will stay here. You and them should leave this place. Don't bother me
anymore because I have chosen to stay with the Tang Empire."
