While Xue Hua was warming up in the hibiscus tent, Jie Hain in the palace was sitting on the throne with a gloomy face.
In the dome hall, the cold and hoarse voice appeared again. It screamed and roared, cursing the king crazily and asking him why he had to agree to the conditions of Farah and others.
"My goal is Tal Rasha's ancient tomb! It's not to open the seal of the palace prison!" Jehain finally couldn't bear it any longer. He is the dignified King of Lugaoin, not a beggar who just spits on his face!
"You promised me! You promised me! I will help you get the key, and you will open the seal in exchange!"
The cold voice and the sharp howl resounded throughout the domed hall, but it did not attract the attention of any palace guards.
"I did promise you, but you also promised to let me get the complete Horadric Staff! But you didn't fulfill your promise!"
The king also stood up angrily, his face turned red and he retorted loudly.
"How dare you...you..." The sharp voice suddenly became darker, and the owner of the voice seemed to be trembling with anger.
"You haven't fulfilled your promise, so don't expect me to fulfill my promise to you!
Don't think that I really don't know where you come from...so you'd better not think that...I will always do what you want.
I am...the King of Lu Gaoyin!"
Jehein stood up straight in front of the throne, with an extremely strong expression of admiration on his face.
Although this king has always appeared to be benevolent and charitable to the outside world, he is still the king of a country after all.
The majesty of the king cannot be blasphemed, especially if it is blasphemed over and over again.
He had put up with this guy long enough, and now he decided not to put up with it any longer.
After the king finished speaking, the entire dome hall fell into an unspeakable silence.
After quite a while, the cold atmosphere in the hall, as cold as a cemetery, suddenly receded like a tide.
The owner of that voice left without saying a word.
Jehein stood there for a long time, and after confirming that he had really left, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Then, he suddenly let out a cold snort, turned around and walked towards the passage behind the throne. From there he left the domed hall and walked towards his favorite tower terrace.
Standing at the edge of the terrace, the king suddenly felt as if a huge boulder had been dropped, and he felt much lighter.
He looked at the lights on the street below and the bustling market, and suddenly the thought "It would be good to let everything calm down like this" came to his mind.
However, just a few seconds after this idea appeared, it was replaced by the ambition in his heart.
The fireworks under the terrace once again ignited the fire of lust for power in his eyes.
He longs to rule them all, he longs to hold all the power in his hands...
Jehein opened his arms as if he wanted to embrace the world in front of him.
He squinted his eyes and whispered softly into the night wind.
"One day, I will clear away all the obstacles in front of me and let the glory return to the Royal Family of Hein!"
"Your Majesty the King...I knew you were here..."
Just as Jehein stood on the terrace and looked at the night sky, a slightly hoarse but very sexy voice suddenly came from the dark room behind the terrace.
Jie Hain suddenly turned his head and saw a woman wearing a white robe with gold thread and a jeweled laurel wreath standing there.
This woman has a well-proportioned figure, graceful appearance, and her skin is a little brown, like the color of wheat.
Her eyes are very bright, her pupils are as dark blue as the sea, her temperament is soft yet solemn, and she has obviously been influenced by a wealthy family.
"Deborah! Why are you up here? It's windy and cold here. Put on this quickly..."
When the king saw the woman, not only did he not get angry, but he ran over in a hurry, grabbed a cotton blanket from the sofa nearby and gently draped it on the woman.
This woman is Jehaine's queen. She is the eldest daughter of the Ezekiel family. She married into the palace when she was sixteen and became Jehaine's princess.
It was precisely because of this marriage relationship that the Ezekiel family was determined to fully support Jehain in the fight for the throne.
Jehaine has always been very fond of her, at least on the surface.
However, this queen is not just a beautiful vase. She inherited the Ezekiel family's consistently high IQ. Although she lives in the palace, she has given her husband many good ideas for governing the country.
"The little one has gone to bed. I saw that you haven't come back yet. I'm a little worried, so I came over to check... Do you want to stay here tonight?"
The queen asked in a gentle and supple voice, which was like a cat's paw, able to arouse the deepest desire for conquest in any man's heart.
"Uh... no... I just came here to enjoy the night breeze... I was a bit too full after dinner... I'm fine now, let's go back."
Jehein coughed dryly, with a gentle smile on his face.
He put his right hand around the queen's waist, held her in his arms and walked toward the harem under the leadership of the maids.
...
At the same time, at a sewer entrance near the fish market in the harbor area, a figure hidden in the darkness was waiting anxiously for someone.
This figure was wearing a robe with a huge and pale skull painted on the vest, and was holding a long metal staff in his hand.
The long staff did not emit any luster and was obviously not a piece of equipment.
This figure has obviously been waiting here for some time, but the person he is waiting for has still not come.
Just when he was about to lose his patience, a flash of blue light suddenly burst out from the shadows around him.
Immediately afterwards, a figure wearing a colorful feather cloak walked out of the shadows.
"Damn it! Are you crazy? How dare you come to the door so openly?" As soon as the figure in colorful feathers appeared, he cursed in an angry voice in a low voice, and there was a sense in his words.
A very peculiar accent, as if he was not used to speaking human common language.
"I'm not crazy! It's Jehaine who's crazy! He already knew my identity, but he just didn't make it clear before..."
The figure wearing a skull robe snorted coldly.
"Jehine? What happened? He kicked you out?"
"I came out on my own... Shouldn't we all blame that damned, inexperienced Necromancer for this?! If it weren't for him, like magic, he killed Horadric one after another without us reacting.
The components of the staff have been recovered, how could I be so passive?!"
The skull robe said viciously.
"He really found the last component? But isn't that a good thing? Now that the components are complete, Jehein should be more anxious to open the seal of the underground prison, right?"
Caiyu Cloak first said something in shock, and then asked in confusion.
"But that little bastard came up with a crooked trick out of nowhere, and he was able to send people into the seal without opening it...
They had already negotiated this matter with Jie Hain at noon today, and that bastard actually reached an agreement with them without telling me..."
Skeleton Robe said bitterly.
After hearing what he said, Caiyu Cloak was silent for a while, and then suddenly burst into laughter.
"...I knew that your method would most likely not work. After all, it's not as easy to deceive the royal family as it is to deceive the common people below?
The so-called ‘fox-headed Fox’ probably still thinks that we don’t know his true identity!
He and the man behind him are still dreaming of becoming the masters of Lu Gaoyin... It's a pity that they have never understood that this world is always dominated by the strong!
No matter how smart a mortal is, in the end he can only serve as a wedding dress for the strong!"
"So it seems like your plan is working?" Skeleton Robe's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"You want to come over and help? Yes! Who knows that we are old friends?
But we have agreed that when it is done, I will take the lion’s share of the credit.”
After listening to his words, Skeleton Robe sighed first, and then said in a slightly lower voice.
"No problem! I can't do it over there. Jehain is now out of my control... It seems that the monsters in the underground prison can't be released... After all, that's where the energy source of the seal is.
If we can't destroy that side, even if we open all the seals in the sewer, we won't be able to affect the underground prison in the end..."
"Hehe... It doesn't matter. After all, our mission is just to create chaos and block Lu Gaoyin's small station and portal. The main attack is not ours..."
Caiyu Cloak smiled and shook his head.
"Oh... then... wait! Someone is coming!" The skeleton robe was about to ask something, but suddenly the expression under the hood changed, and then with a soft "pop" sound, the two people
