Hidden Master: starting by canceling ten marriage proposals

Chapter 758: Plot!_1



"They harmed me!"

The King's face changed drastically, as he clearly hadn't expected to hear such news from Yin Tian's lips.

So surprised was he that he even forgot to refer to himself as 'We,' instead saying 'I.'

"Indeed."

Yin Tian nodded slowly. "Using the Feng Shui Array, they're gradually depleting your life, and then plan to have you die without God or ghost being the wiser."

"In this way, even if you actually die someday, nobody will know the true cause of your death. In the future, any records about you will simply state, 'On such and such a year, month, and day, the King died of a sudden, strange illness.'

"How bold!"

Qu Datong's face also changed drastically, and he looked at Yin Tian with utter severity. "You actually dare to curse the King, you... what are your intentions!"

"I'm merely stating the truth. How does that become a curse from me?"

Yin Tian retorted.

Honglong then looked towards the King.

No matter what the truth actually was, if the King ordered him to drive Yin Tian away, he would do so without any hesitation.

The King, however, pondered for a moment before finally speaking, "If you could see the problem, do you also know how to solve it?"

"Of course."

Yin Tian spoke without hesitation.

Seeing Yin Tian so confident, the King fell into deep thought again.

After a while, the King finally spoke slowly, "Very well, if that is the case, then I trust you."

"Your Majesty!"

Qu Datong became anxious immediately. "Your Majesty, how can you believe what this young man says? He is clearly deceiving you. Please do not fall for his trickery!"

The King turned slightly to glance at Qu Datong. "Sir Qu, you have been here long enough and must be tired. In my view, you should go home and rest."

Then, he gave a look to Honglong.

Honglong understood immediately and approached Qu Datong, "Sir Qu, please."

Qu Datong was so frustrated that his body shook, and his complexion turned extremely unsightly.

He stared at Yin Tian fiercely, "You will get your retribution! A King will die by your hand!"

Qu Datong's words clearly displeased the King.

This old fellow was truly cursing him!

However, considering the Qu Family's contributions to the nation, and with Qu Datong being the Patriarch of the Qu Family, the King - even to prevent the Qu Family from becoming disheartened - had to treat Qu Datong with courtesy.

Soon, only Yin Tian and the King were left inside the bedchamber.

Suddenly, Yin Tian chuckled. "Your Majesty really trusts me, daring to send away the guards and leave myself alone with you."

"I don't suspect those I use, and I don't use those I suspect,"

the King replied impassively.

Yin Tian nodded but did not mention that, accompanied by Honglong's departure, he felt a stinging sensation in several more spots on his body.

"If you say that my health has been declining year by year due to Feng Shui, what exactly is going on?"

The King asked Yin Tian, looking puzzled and finally voicing the doubts in his heart.

"Heretic Feng Shui Master."

Yin Tian said calmly.

Heretic Feng Shui Master?

The King paused and a look of realization flashed through his eyes.

Clearly, he was aware of the term 'Heretic Feng Shui Master.'

"I previously visited the western border of Central City once, where foreign lands lie."

Yin Tian began.

The King nodded, aware of Yin Tian's past visitation.

"There, a man called a Wizard, but he was actually someone who had learned Feng Shui Skill."

Yin Tian continued, "That man captured my fiancée, intending to steal her fortune. I found him, destroyed his fortune, but his master also arrived."

"That foreigner's master is someone you might have heard of. He is the Head of the Li Family, one of the Three Medics, Three Winds, Three Holy Halls of Central City."

The King nodded again.

He knew of the Three Medics, Three Winds, Three Holy Halls of Central City.

"It seems Your Majesty is well-informed, so let me tell you something you don't know."

Yin Tian smiled and began, "That Li Family is the Heretic Feng Shui Master's stronghold in Central City."

"What?!"

As expected, the King's expression changed.

He had not expected the Heretic Feng Shui Masters to have infiltrated Central City to such a degree!

"I captured the Li Family Patriarch, and under my interrogation, he told me that the Heretic Feng Shui Masters are plotting something big, something that could completely overthrow our nation."

"What is it?"

"They're preparing to raise an emperor."

The King went silent.

Though he was the King, he was far from being an emperor.

Only rulers under the ancient feudal system were called emperors.

"The Heretic Feng Shui Masters indeed planned to do so. They want to transfer the fortune of all the people in Central City onto one person. Once you are removed, Your Majesty, their grand scheme will succeed."

Yin Tian stood there, looking at the King and spoke indifferently, "At that time, this country will truly fall into those Heretic Feng Shui Masters' hands."

The King still did not speak.

At this moment, he was contemplating whether what Yin Tian had said was true.
