Chapter 31 CHAPTER 30 : Li Lin Lost His Calmness!

The white tiger quickly dashed past inside the forest. Even though her size is a little bit small, her agility has become more than before. Joey quickly followed behind her.

Sometime later, they appeared before the lake that Joey was before.

" Oh! I have unintentionally come back here again. " Joey murmured to himself.

The white tiger tried to jump into the lake. Joey quickly caught her by her tail and kept on his shoulder.

" Jizhi, don't go there. I know the python is inside the lake. Fighting inside the lake will be more disadvantageous to us. So, let me bring it up on the land." Joey told the white tiger. After that, the little tiger remains calmly on his shoulder.

Then, Joey looked at the python that was recuperating inside the bottom of the river. He spoke out loudly, "Hey python. Look at me carefully. Hahaha! Do you remember me? I am the one who took one of your eyes. Now, I am here to kill you this time. Are you afraid? Then, you can stay inside there forever. " He started taunting the python.

Even though its intelligence was not fully developed yet. It understood the meaning of the words spoken by Joey. It becomes so furious that it loses to its instinct and moves toward the land.

Joey was waiting for this opportunity. Just when the python reached the land, he escaped toward the woods. The python continued chasing him quickly.

When they were a mile farther away from the lake, Joey stopped running. He turned back with a smile then, he approached the python instead of running away. He suddenly appeared beside the python and punched it on its head.

The momentum of more than 50000kg weight contained in his punch made the python fly. He used his fast movement skill and kept punching the python repeatedly. The mighty LVL 3 python didn't even have the chance to retaliate.

Several minutes later, the python collapsed on the ground half-dead. Then Joey used his soul force and quickly transported the python to the 1st floor of the heavenly corruption pagoda.

" Sister Ai, I have transferred that python you need, inside the pagoda." Joey sent a telepathic voice to her.

" Good boy, I will wait for your next visit. Also, keep your forehead clean," she replied.

Joey was now in level 1 of the Houtian realm. But defeating a level 3 beast just now was because of his luck. The python was in its weakest state after shedding its skin not long ago. Also, it went mad after Joey provoked it in the lake. So, Joey can easily defeat it.

The little white tiger saw all his actions. She licks on his cheeks happily. And Joey caressed her fur softly.

"Alright, it is time to look for that cave." He said to himself and started walking toward the direction of the cave as mentioned on the map. On his way, he collected almost all the herbs that he knew from the medicinal book.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inside the palace of Tang nation, two men were currently inside the courthouse. One was sitting on the throne while the other stood before him. They were Tang Zimo, the current emperor, and prime minister, Yi Yin.

" Yi Yin, a new development happens regarding the cave. Our spies from our neighboring three-nations send very sensitive news. I will bet you a meal if you can guess it right. Tang Zimo suggested with a smile while tapping on his armchair.

Yi Yin thought for a while then he spoke out his mind, " Your majesty, It is not surprising that there were also some foreign's spies inside the northern fort army. There is no doubt that the news of the cave had been leaked for a while. So, they might have already sent their own veterans for the cave."

"Hahaha, you are right. What do you think we should do now?" Tang Zimo asked again.

"Your majesty, let them go. The more men go there, the safer for our teams. Also one more important thing, after this trip, the status quo within the four-nations, The Tang nation, The fire nation, The green nation, and The stone nation that was maintained up to now might come to an end. We need to be prepared for war if the situation becomes worse." Li Lin spoke his thoughts clearly.

" Yi Yin, I really envy you for your wits. I heard that your master has taken my daughter as his student recently. So, you stay here in Tang nation to support her as a prime minister. In your service here, you have even broken the alliance of our three neighbor nations with your perfect time strategy alone and stopped their joint attack. In addition, you have solved many of the tough problems that no one dares to touch. But, you have no attachment to this nation at all. So, I sincerely thank you on behalf of this nation. " Tang Zimo stood up and expressed his gratitude.

" Please, majesty. Even though I was not born here, I have already started to develop a deep attachment to this nation. Actually, I can even sacrifice for this nation. Also, it is my duty to help you, your majesty. " Li Lin spoke out with a deep tone.

" Alright, When will your master come here? I would like to thank him personally for your and Mie lien's behalves ." Tang Zimo asked him.

"Maybe after a year from now," he replied politely.

" So, you and Mie lien will follow him when he comes back this time?" Zimo asked again.

" Yes, my sect will have an important event that we all need to attend. Worry not, before I leave, I will solve the problems of those three neighboring nations," he assured.

" Then, this nation will miss the youngest genius strategy of this generation. It is a big loss, a big loss. Anyway, do you have any suggestions for this upcoming war?" Tang Zimo asked and sighed heavily.

" Your majesty, my best proposal is to involve the Zhang family. I always have doubts about this great family. Lucky that they were all freaks who don't care about politics. Also, I truly can't understand what is going on with their patriarch's mind. Sometimes they seem to care, sometimes they don't care about anything at all. Also, their family's overall powers seem to be beyond that of this remote place. But they still stay here as your subjects. " Li Lin showed an expression of uncertainty, hesitation, and confusion for the first time before Tang Zimo.

"The Zhang family's members were a bunch of idiots. Harmless when you leave them alone but never try to associate with them too much. Otherwise, the outcome will be more than you think. Alright, this is the letter containing the details about those veterans from other nations. Send it to Mie lien quickly. " Tang Zimo said and sighed heavily.
