Legend of the Perfect Emperor Chapter 60: Your Highness?

The silver armored figured descended to stand a few meters away from Tian Yi, and he kowtowed. "This lowly one greets His Highness…"

"This lowly one greets His Highness!"

The 100 black-armored figures followed.

At this moment, both the silver-armored figure and the black-armored figures were crying tears of joy inside their heart.

Finally! They have finally found him!

It had all started the day when the weird phenomenon appeared in Qing Shan City that they became more attentive to the Ninth Heaven.

They searched and searched, but alas, there was not a single clue of Tian Yi that could be found, so they gave up.

And then when the situation with Tian Long happened, they returned to search for clues, but alas, there was no useful clues other than the sky turning gold for a moment, something that could've had dozens of reasons for its appearance.

However, despite finding nothing else besides the gold sky, they did not quit this time and decided to stay back for a bit just in case.

Little did they expect for Tian Yi to show himself right before they prepared to leave!

"Your Highness… His Majesty, the Celestial Emperor, and Her Majesty, the Celestial Empress have been looking for Your Highness ever since Your Highness' disappearance…" said the silver-armored figure.

"And?" Tian Yi casually replied, his eyes narrowed at the silver-armored man.

The silver-armored man silently trembled from Tian Yi's piercing gaze.

"T-This lowly one requests for His Highness to return to the Celestial Palace—"

"I refuse!" Tian Yi directly cut him off before he could even finish his sentence, and the silver-armored figure could feel his eyes swell up with tears upon hearing those words.

"B-But your Highness—"

"No buts! I refuse to return!"

"H-His Majesty will be angry…"

"I don't care!"

"Her Majesty will be sad…"

"...Mother... will understand!"

The interaction between the silver-armored man and Tian Yi made the spectators think of some servant trying to convince his young master to go home after a long day at the amusement park…

"Your Highness… Please… This lowly one begs for mercy! If your Highness does not return, His Majesty will not allow these lowly ones to sleep! These lowly ones haven't had the time to rest since His Highness' disappearance!"

Tian Yi's eyes widened at his words. He felt guilty that his disappearance had caused them and others so much trouble, but he was still unwilling to go home so soon— especially not when he has seen what the outside world could offer him!

His meeting with Caiyi, his learning of his devoted followers, and everything that has happened up to this point, be it good or bad, are things that he would've never been able to experience if he didn't leave home!

"Your Highness…"

Tian Yi sighed and closed his eyes to ponder, and when he reopened them a moment later, a mysterious light flickered deep within.

"I understand," he said slowly, giving the silver-armored figure and the others a pleasant surprise. "However, I will only return after I am done with my business here," he continued.

"Business? What business does His Highness have here? These lowly ones will take care of it right this moment!" The silver-armored figure said, wishing he'd return as soon as possible.

"Is that so?" Tian Yi then turned to look at Long Mulan who was trembling uncontrollably at this point.

The silver-armored man also turned to look at Long Mulan while still kowtowing, and when he saw the dark spot near Long Mulan's crotch area, he frowned. "What does your Highness want from him?" he asked.

"Apparently he is from the Qing Dynasty," said Tian Yi.

"The Qing Dynasty? The ones in charge of this Ninth Heaven's Spirit Realm?"

"Unfortunately…" he shook his head.

"Unfortunately?" The frown on the silver-armored figure's face deepened.

"You see… This man from the Qing Dynasty dared to attempt mass murder in my presence," Tian Yi said, and the black hair on Long Mulan quickly turned white from stress as though he had his longevity drained from him.

"What?! The audacity!" The silver-armored figure roared, and his cultivation base that none of the people there could read exploded.

Long Mulan's expression turned ashen from the pressure, and all of the blood in his body drained. The once healthy and domineering middle-aged man had turned into an old man that looked as if he had one of his legs in the coffin within the blink of an eye! And all of this was caused by his extreme stress and anxiety!

"Y-Your Highness… Please… Have mercy…"

"Nobody gave you the permission to speak to His Highness!" The silver-armored man roared, controlling his pressure to force Long Mulan onto the ground into a kowtowing position. "Not only did you dare to speak to His Majesty without permission, but you also spoke while standing?! Who the hell do you think you are, you ant?!"

Long Mulan coughed up many mouthfuls of blood from the pressure that nearly turned his body into meat paste. His lungs were burning, and his body screamed in pain. Regret! He regretted his decision to come here to avenge his son! He regretted his decision to have given birth to that now dead son! He regretted every decision he made in life that had caused him to be in this situation! If he knew that Long Chen had offended the son of the Celestial Emperor, he would have killed that useless son of a bitch himself! But alas! There was no pill for regret that existed in this world!

"Somebody go and detain that hearsay of an existence!" The silver-armored man commanded.

"Yes, sir!" All 100 of the black-armored men replied, and they appeared beside Long Mulan the next second to detain him!

"To think there would be such a fool in the Qing Dynasty! I will personally knock their door after this!" The silver-armored man said, and Long Mulan who heard his words felt his heart bleed.

"W-Wait! This lowly one's action today has nothing to do with—"

"WHO GAVE YOU THE PERMISSION TO TALK BACK?!" The silver-armored man roared, and the air cracked just from the pressure of his voice!

"!!!' Long Mulan instinctively slammed his mouth shut, nearly biting his tongue off!

The silver-armored man then looked at his soldiers and said, "You guys can head back to the Celestial Palace, and when you return, notify His Majesty that His Highness has been found and will be returning shortly."

"Yes, sir!" They all replied in union before disappearing into the clouds with Long Mulan whose complexion was like that of a corpse.

"Hmph! I will deal with you when I return!" The silver-armored man then returned to his lowered head position and faced where Tian Yi stood.

"Your Highness, that pest has been taken care of. Now, His Highness can return without worry— huh?" The silver-armored man finally noticed that Tian Yi's presence was absent midway his sentence, and then he looked up to see the place where Tian Yi stood a moment ago was now empty.

"Y-Your Highness…?" he quickly stood up and looked around in a panicked manner, hoping that Tian Yi was only playing a cruel trick on him.

"Y-YOUR HIGHNESS?!" he cried out loud, sounding as though he just woke up from a nightmare.

"Y-YOUR HIGHNESS!!!" The silver-armored man now sounded like he was watching his family being murdered in front of him, his voice filled with despair.

Tian Yi, during his dealing with Long Mulan, had unknowingly disappeared! He had run away, again!

"H-His Majesty is going to kill me…" The silver-armored man mumbled with his back already soaked in sweat, his soul nearly collapsing just thinking about the terror he would face when he returns to an anticipating Tian Qiang only to tell him that he had let Tian Yi slip away…
