Chapter 207


    Lam Zaa, Yam Chui Ying, Chui Yim and Kam Chin Kee sat in the same carriage. It was an extraordinary sight.


    So why are you here? Yam Chui Ying red at Kam Chin Kee.


    Why not hitchhike when we are going in the same direction? Kam Chin Kee smiled in response.


    You were being honest! Chui Yim gasped. You do live in the pce!


    Now, Im curious. Why am I following you guys? Curious, Chui Yim asked.


    Its my father, His Majesty, who summoned Brother Chui, not me. Lam Zaaughed.<hr>


    Chui Yim looked out of the carriage, recalling the book, Biography of Wai Yi.


    Wai Yi was an architect who lived centuries ago. He designed and nned the entire Evergreen Pce, and even South Imperial City was one of his works.


    He was no cultivator, but amoner who picked up gliphism against the odds and made his mark as a renowned architect who designed the Evergreen Pce, which stood for centuries and still counting.


    The Evergreen Pce project thatsted forty years was something Wai Yi gave his all for. It was designed to have an extremely luxurious style which reminded one of the South. Wai Yis design was so detailed that it includedplicated designs for all parts of the pce, even including the door frames. In fact, it was a gigantic formation in itself.


    Chui Yim was stunned by the magnificent ce that looked like a maze, sorge that outsiders would likely get lost.


    The carriage drove straight into the pce, only stopping once it reached the World Observatory Hall. Lam Zaa alighted first. He turned around to face Chui Yim with a smile.


    Im sure my father His Majesty has his reasons for summoning you. I wont dy you any further.


    Chui Yim nodded his head and followed an eunuch into the hall. In his past life, he dared to ignore the Emperors summon but not anymore. He was currently in the South, where the Lam family ruled.


    Kam Chin Kee turned around to leave, but Lam Zaa blocked his path with a serious expression before he could.


    Stay away from Chui Yim. The two of you are totally different. He is the first to receive the crown prince badge, and hell be my right hand man once I be the emperor, unlike you, who barely have the right to stay here. After youring of age, you will leave the pce and never see brother Chui again. I hope youre smart enough to understand.


    Kam Chin Kee stared at Lam Zaa with a wide smile, speaking only after a short pause. And you know nothing.


    Me and Chui Yim, we are the same. You should be the one to stay away from him; he will refuse to be anyones puppet, just like me. Saying that he took a step forward, now only a few centimetres away from Lam Zaa.


    Yam Chui Ying circted his energliph anxiously, but Lam Zaa stopped him before he could do anything.


    What makes you think you can order me around if even His Majesty cant? Kam Chin Kee looked at Lam Zaa, unaffected by his words.


    How daring. Lam Zaas face fell.


    Bear with it a while more. Taking a step back, Kam Chin Kees gentle smile returned. Sooner orter, Ill leave the pce. You wont see me around anymore. However, I suggest you heed my advice and give up on Chui Yim.


    Kam Chin Kee left, with Lam Zaa staring at his back with an ugly expression.<hr>


    In the World Observatory Hall, a middle-aged man sat at his study table, reading several documents. An incense stick was burning at the window sill, its aroma enveloping the room.


    It only took Chui Yim a sniff for him to identify the Focus Incense, which helped one concentrate. Despite it not being a rare product, it worked like magic.


    Your Majesty, Chui Yim is here.


    Mhmm.


    <em>Plop.</em> The writing brush was ced aside.


    The middle-aged man raised his head and met Chui Yims eyes.


    Buzz


    Chui Yim felt dizzy, like he was under huge pressure. The pair of dark blue eyes were like an unfathomable ocean. He felt goosebumps all over just by looking at it. He knew this didnt represent the mans cultivation, only his aura, but how terrifying was a person with such a horrifying aura?


    <em>So this is the current Emperor Lam, Lam Chun?</em>


    You may now take your leave. Lam Chun nodded after staring at Chui Yim for a long while.


    Yes, Your Majesty. The eunuch that led Chui Yim came over to the young boy. You can leave now.


    But there was no response from Chui Yim, who seemed glued to the ground.


    Hurry up and take your leave! Seeing this, the eunuch reminded Chui Yim anxiously.


    Whats wrong? Lam Chun turned around once more.


    So youre Lam Mings father?


    The eunuch nearly fainted at Chui Yims words. <em>What kind of tone is he using?</em>


    How dare you speak in such a manner? Do you know that His Majesty can behead you for this?


    However, Chui Yim only stared at Lam Chun, not sparing the eunuch a look. Im not viewing you as an emperor but as a friend who wants to understand his friends father.


    Oh? Lam Chun let go of his brush again. So what kind of person do you think I am?


    I was expecting it, but now that Ive met you in real life, my guesses have been confirmed. Youre not that amazing. Chui Yim lightly chuckled.
