Chapter 281: Empress of the Jade Kingdom



Chapter 281: Empress of the Jade Kingdom

"You must be the infamous Zen, right?"

"Yea, it's definitely him alright. Look at him, holding an elf MILF by his arms." 

The people snickered coldly as they blocked Zen and Lena's path.

"If you want a signature from me, then I'm afraid you wasted your time. I don't give signatures to males." Zen casually replied as he walked toward the side.

However, the people quickly followed his movement and continued to block him.

"If you want a fight before the actual tournament, then I don't mind thrashing you all," Zen warned as he leaked out some of his essence flame.

With the essence flame out, the room temperature began to rise up drastically as the people started sweating from the intense heat.

Of course, Lena remained unaffected by the new change as Zen had cast a barrier around her beforehand.

Sometime later, Zen walked forward as he whispered softly to the group of people.

"I don't know who ordered you to do something as stupid as this, but I want you to all fuck off. Otherwise, I'll make sure you will not have a life to enjoy anymore." 

After his threat, Zen held Lena by the waist as he walked forward. The group of people no longer dared to block their path as they hurriedly fled the scene.

Sometime later, Zen arrived at a luxurious room as he sat on the couch with Lena.

"Why are we here?" Lena asked.

"Because someone is waiting" Zen trailed off as he heard the sound of footsteps from the other side.

A few seconds later, the door opened as two women dressed in iron-clad armor walked ahead with their weapons out.

As they walked ahead, they suddenly turned to their left and right side respectively as they shouted, "Her Majesty, Christy had arrived."

Soon, a majestic and dignified woman entered. 

Christy smiled slightly at Zen as she sat across from him. 

Meanwhile, the two guards held a deadly expression as they pointed their weapons at Zen and Lena.

"Hurry up and kneel before her majesty." They demanded.

Zen casually ignored their shout as he remained still.

"Enough, you two are dismissed." Christy waved her hand. 

"B-But Your Majesty we can't just leave you alone with two strangers." 

"I will not repeat it twice." 

"W-We understand" The two guards nodded their heads as they followed Christy's instruction.

However, before leaving, they made sure to give one final look at Zen, seemingly warning him to not do anything stupid.

Sometime later, Christy crossed her legs as she glanced at Zen.

"You don't seem surprised at all," She asked.

"Surprised? Why would I be surprised?" 

"Heh, as expected you knew about my identity all along, right?" 

Alas, Zen shook his head as he gave a look to Lena. 

Lena understood his meaning as she stood up and bid farewell. She was going to wait outside since Zen wanted to have a private conversation with the Empress of the Jade Kingdom.

When they were finally alone, Zen smiled calmly at Christy.

"Actually, I didn't know who you were at the beginning. I really thought you were some gardener that could tender a beautiful flower well." 

"Oh? Then when did you find out?" Lena asked. 

"It was when I realized that there is nobody in our surroundings," Zen replied as he leaned back on the couch.

And he continued, "Normally, an imperial palace this big must have some guard patrolling the area. However, I have extended my magic sense to at least 60km around us, and there is still no one here."

Christy nodded her head.

"Go on"

"For that abnormal situation to occur could only mean one thing Someone with a high authority had commanded the imperial guard to not disturb the area. And the only one capable of doing so is only you, Christy. Or should I say, the Empress of the Jade Kingdom?" 

Christy smiled as she clapped her hand.

"Amazing, you really are more cautious than what others think of you to be. You were able to detect that tiny clue I had left." Christy praised.

Zen shook his head.

"Oh please, stop making me look smart when you were just trolling me."

"I'm not trolling you." 

"You knew from the start who I was You can stop acting." 

Christy giggled softly as she held an indescribable emotion in her heart.

They might be talking casually right now, but their viewpoint and standing are the complete opposite.

Krista Dragoon wished to drag her down and she in return wanted to demolish her goal.

Thus, their current conversation was awkward as they could be considered enemies. 

"I have heard from Krista that there are many things about you and none of them were good, Christy." Zen said calmly. 

"So, would you care to clarify it or try to defend those claims?" 

Zen was unwilling to believe that Christy was the kind of tyrant that Krista Dragoon had mentioned.

After all, a tyrant would never receive the blessing of the Moonstone Flower.

Not to mention, the days he had spent with her were really calm and serene. He didn't have to worry about the schemes and plots when he was having a picnic with her.

Meanwhile, Christy flashed a smile as she offered a suggestion.

"Why not come with me to the imperial court and check it out for yourself Of course, that is if you're not afraid it's a trap to capture you." 

"Did you think I'm the coward type?"

"I guess that means a yes."

Zen nodded his head. 

"Very well, I'll inform my companion outside that I will be heading to the imperial court," Zen said as he stood up and walked outside to tell Lena, who was waiting outside about his plan.

"Be careful, Zen. She's not a simple woman." Lena warned.

"Rest assured, even if it's a trap, I can escape easily." Zen was unbothered since he had a trump card in his hand. 

Sometime later, Zen returned to the luxurious room as he flashed a smile at Christy.

"Lead the way, Christy."
