Chapter 428: Taking sides
Chapter 428 Standing
Asura sat down confidently on the chair brought by the guards on the right side of the hall. Arthur wanted to sit next to Asura, but his father called him back to the empty seat next to him with a look!
Seated in the entire hall were the core members of the Valenci Empire's royal family, and there were more than a dozen ministers sitting on both sides!
Asura didn't know anyone, nor did he want to know these ministers. He just sat there quietly waiting for what was to come!
Emperor Yabusele of Valencia has been observing Ashura's every move and had just listened to the guards' report on the conflict!
Although no one knew why the Red Flame Mad Lion blocked Asura's way, this kid actually dared to touch the Red Flame Mad Lion's head, and drew his sword as soon as he got up!
Yabusale believed that Ashura was either a brainless reckless man or an arrogant fool!
But through the exchange of just two sentences, the Valenci Emperor Yabusele could conclude that his previous judgment was completely wrong!
Although no one knows why he had a conflict with the Red Flame Mad Lion, and the Red Flame Mad Lion's final statement was also very puzzling!
But this guy is definitely not someone who is easy to control!
Emperor Yabusele of Valencia smiled and said, "I always hear Arthur mention you, but it seems you haven't been to the imperial capital. You recently moved your family to the imperial capital, right?"
Ashura didn't think too deeply about the meaning of this, but replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty. I am a wild person and I can't sit still. Going out and exploring the world will be beneficial to my strength!"
Yabusele seemed interested after hearing this and asked, "Oh? Where have you traveled recently?"
"When I was young, I also wanted to conquer the stars and the sea, but I was busy with state affairs, so I haven't been to many places so far!"
After hearing this, Ashura pondered for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty, the main reason I left home in Aolai this time was to find my grandfather!"
"My grandpa has been away from home for nearly a year looking for medicinal herbs. This time I went to the desert of the Garinan Empire and the capital of Pagadong!"
After listening to Ashura's words, everyone in the field gasped. This black-haired young man actually went to two unfamiliar empires alone!
Moreover, the desert of the Garinan Empire is also a restricted area for humans. In addition to the black storm that is powerful enough to destroy everything, there are also the cold-blooded and ruthless snake people!
And they also went to the capital of the Pagadong Empire on the other side of the King's Continent. This journey sounds crazy!
The Valenci Emperor Yabusele narrowed his eyes, and he seemed to be more interested in Ashura!
Still smiling, he asked, "Arthur told me some time ago that you wanted a fiefdom and wanted to move the snake people to your fiefdom. Is that true?"
After hearing this, Ashura knew that this matter could not be concealed, and quickly said seriously: "Yes, Your Majesty, the snake people provided me with clues about my grandfather. In return, I promised to help them find another habitat!"
"Of course, this territory doesn't need to be too large. I can also guarantee that the Serpent People will not act recklessly in the Valenci Empire!"
"Of course, they don't have the strength to cause trouble in the Valenci Empire under your rule. They will only operate within the Marquisate allocated to our family!"
"I will also restrain them. I am willing to guarantee the snake people and take responsibility for it. If anything goes wrong, you can blame me!"
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall became even more depressing, and the smile on the face of Valenci Emperor Yabusele faded!
He asked in a solemn voice with a dignified look on his face, "Are you saying that you are willing to guarantee and take responsibility for the Snake People? Or that the Snake People are willing to listen to your arrangements?"
Ashura knew what Yabusale meant by the question, but this involved the migration of foreign races, and no emperor would take it lightly!
Instead of hiding it, it’s better to put everything out in the open!
Ashura stood up and leaned slightly towards the luggage beside him as he replied, "Yes, Your Majesty! As you wish!"
After hearing Ashura's reply, everyone in the hall changed their expressions! Several ministers and generals looked at Ashura in surprise and doubt!
The eldest prince stared at Ashura with a gloomy face, while the third prince looked at Ashura with disdain!
It was obvious from his eyes that he didn't believe that Asura could control the snake people at all!
The second prince Arthur was startled at first, frowned for a few moments and then seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Ashura with a look of shock and admiration!
There was no expression on the face of Emperor Yabusele of Valencia, but he was extremely shocked in his heart. How on earth did this young man Ashura do it?
He seems to have a natural affinity with other races. First, he established a soul contract with the Purple Gold Titan, the royal family of the Titan clan, and then he can decide the migration of the entire Snake Tribe!
I've never heard of humans being able to control other races! This made Yabusele reassess the value of this hereditary marquis!
If he knew that Ashura had a close relationship with dwarves, goblins and elves, I wonder if he would be shocked!
Before Yabusele could express his opinion, the eldest prince Adam beside him spoke coldly, "Humph! Aren't you afraid of getting your tongue tangled by boasting?"
"How could the cold-blooded snake people possibly listen to you? They might be trying to use you to escape that barren desert!"
"Once they leave the desert, how could they possibly listen to your orders? Do you think you're the queen of the snake people?"
After the eldest prince said these harsh words, he was actually echoed by several ministers and generals around him!
I wonder if he truly agrees with the views of the Great Prince Adam? Or is he just in the Great Prince Adam camp, just here to flatter him?
Asura glanced at the eldest prince Adam, and then glanced at the ministers and generals around him who were shaking their heads!
He smiled slightly but said nothing!
Sometimes ignoring someone is easier to break down than confronting them!
The eldest prince, Adam, who was not very prudent to begin with, was immediately overwhelmed. He stood up and shouted, "How dare you ignore me? You are so brave!"
Asura glanced at the runaway prince Adam, then slowly stood up!
He bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, it's not that I'm ignoring you, but isn't it the custom of our Valenci Empire that younger generations can't interrupt an elder before he or she has finished asking a question?"
"I really don't understand the rules of the royal family! Please forgive me!"
After he finished speaking, the scene became terribly quiet. Even Yabusele looked up at the two of them!
The eldest prince Adam was so offended by these vicious words that he kept shouting "You...you...you..." for a long time but couldn't utter a word!
Asura still ignored him and turned his gaze to the Valenci Emperor Yabusele who seemed to be still in deep thought!
Ashura was not intentionally provoking the eldest prince Adam, but he had no choice. The other princes had already regarded him as the second prince Arthur's man!
This was not the first time that the eldest prince Adam had spoken against him. When he was confronting the Red Flame Lion, he had accused him and forced him to kneel down and beg for mercy!
Now he jumps out to question and mock him, how can Asura tolerate this?
Since you're forcing me to take sides, then let's just tear each other apart...
