Chapter: 679

‘Since when did he enter the carriage?’

It was unbelievable. And Zhu Taikhan was actually talking ill about him.

Yeowun smiled coldly and sent a telepathic message to Zhu Taikhan.

[You must have been very mad about me, your highness.]

‘Hiiiiek!’

Zhu Taikhan became pale and shook his head side to side frantically.

It was unbelievable. Chun Yeowun was left behind at the northern gate, but it seemed like he had been hiding by the carriage all along. It was hard to believe that Yeowun came in when Zhu Taikhan entered the carriage.

“NNNNNGH!”

[Can you use telepathic messages? I suppose you can.]

Zhu Taikhan nodded. His mouth was forced to close, so his jaw was hurting. That’s when the energy that forced him to close his mouth disappeared.

“Ha... Hah...”

He could have breathed with his nose, but he was too fearful that he became pale and panted through his mouth.

‘Dammit. I guess there’s no point in screaming for help.’

He saw Chun Yeowun’s monstrous power by his eyes. Yeowun was a monster who could wipe out the entire Imperial Army if he wanted to. Taikhan had to play along.

‘What have I done to go through such trouble...’

He didn’t think he would suffer such an event when he left for the Demonic Cult. He was, after all, a King who had enormous political power.

[S-since when did you get in the carriage?]

[It’s not been that long.]

Yeowun answered vaguely and Zhu Taikhan misunderstood the truth.

‘His power is like a god. He got on the carriage while all that people were watching?’

Zhu Taikhan thought Chun Yeowun got on his carriage when he opened the door to get on. But that wasn’t true. Yeowun actually got in when the Imperial Guards were preparing to leave.

[S-so, why did you get in my carriage?]

Zhu Taikhan was afraid of getting on Yeowun’s nerves, but he couldn’t figure out why. Yeowun had declined to participate and the carriage was now going toward the Empire’s capital so there was no possible explanation. Yeowun answered.

[Of course, I’m going to the Imperial Palace with you.]

[Im-Imperial Palace?]

Zhu Taikhan became shocked. He couldn’t even guess why a leader of one of the three largest factions of Yulin suddenly wanted to go to the Imperial Palace. And Zhu Taikhan was just too afraid of Chun Yeowun himself.

‘I-is it because he heard me cussing him out?’

It was possible that Yeowun had become angry at Taikhan who had been cussing ever since the carriage departed. Zhu Taikhan spoke assuringly.

[L-Lord Chun. If you are saying that because of what I said... don’t be too mad. I was just too sad since you cannot come with me.]

[I see, that’s good. I almost got mad because I thought you hate me.]
