Chapter 170

Chapter 170

There werent many who could enter the World Observatory Hall to visit His Majesty.

Outside the hall stood a eunuch awaiting Kam Chin Kees arrival. The eunuch was none other than the famed palace eunuch, Lau Fa Ming. He stared at Kam Chin Kee with a cold and disdainful look. To him, Kam Chin Kee was just an orphan, undeserving of life in the palace.

Moreover, he disliked Kam Chin Kees odd personality, so Lau Fa Ming shouted at him, His Majesty has already spent five minutes waiting; five precious minutes that he could have used for his heavy workload, so hurry up!

Kam Chin Kee only flashed him a smile in reply and walked into the hall silently.

A dog threatening people using the strength of its master, Kam Chin Kee commented lightly as he passed Lau Fa Ming.

You Lau Fa Ming flared up on hearing Kam Chin Kee, his energliph starting to circulate.

Step back, Eunuch Lau.

A strict voice rang out, Lau Fa Ming's imposing manner vanishing as he left with a bow. Yes, Your Majesty.

He dared not raise his head even after he left the hall, closing the door silently, leaving only Kam Chin Kee and Lam Chun in the hall.

A figure sat at a normal study table with a huge pile of memorials and a pot of tea. Just like what Lau Fa Ming said, the emperor did stop his work to await Kam Chin Kee.

Lam Chun was a skinny man. His build was hidden beneath his dark blue robe, making him look even skinnier as if he were a scholar. However, the way he carried himself was like he was on top of a mountain, looking down on the world.

After all, he was the emperor of the South.

Greetings, Your Majesty. Kam Chin Kee nodded slightly. He didnt bow or lower his head.

Whats your request? Lam Chun stared at Kam Chin Kee emotionlessly.



But most of them thought that Kam Chin Kee was overestimating himself. He was just a nameless orphan that survived a village massacre allowed to stay in the palace thanks to his luck. What made him believe that he was qualified? Even Lam Chun was only a disciple of Cloud Palaces outer sect in his youth!

And Kam Chin Kee hoped to get in successfully?



In the Chor mansion,. Chor Shing Chit announced, I want a slot in the Cloud Palaces outer sect.

His words invoked a smile from Chor Huet Zhin. For young friend Chui, am I right?

No. The slots are limited. Chor Chong Hoi cut him off immediately. Every slot is precious, and besides the imperial family, theres only one slot for our clan. How can we give it to a non-Chor Clan member?

Chor Shing Chit frowned. Chor Chong Hoi might be someone his father valued, but he still didnt like him. Does the clan have any talent more worthy of this slot?

Of course, we have more than thirty cultivators who have reached the one-chambered stage

On the other hand, Chor Chong Hoi might now have placed all his energy into supporting Chor Chun Ping, but he did not fancy the boy who left the clan twenty years ago. Sadly, he was cut off coldly by Chor Shing Chit.

Are any of them stronger than the younger me?

The main hall was so silent that one could hear a pin drop after Chor Shing Chits comment.

The only other talent that could compete with Chor Shing Chit in this era was Chor Huet Zhin, his grandfather. Even then, Chor Huet Zhin was less talented than Chor Shing Chit. He only reached where he was today because of his perseverance and hard work at the Bloody War Frontier.

Even I wasnt selected. Are you guys still unclear about the Cloud Palaces requirements? They arent looking for geniuses, but extraordinary talents like Wat Suen of my generation!

The name Wat Suen made everyone in the hall wear a complicated expression. Back then, Wat Suen came with two old wooden crutches and a guqin. She played a simple piece and ended up becoming the Fifth teacher today.

Be it cultivation or strength, she might not have been Chor Shing Chits opponent back then. But she was still selected anyway.
