Title: Direct Attendant Relays an Order
.....
In the third palace, many low rank general's came to pay Shun a visit but Shun refused to see any of them.
This made many of them extremely unhappy. But when they thought of the fact that Shun could take over the third-ranked position, they could only hide their dissatisfaction deep in their hearts.
Killing Zonn in a single strike. Shun's strength was definitely extraordinary.
Shun naturally wouldn't care about what these people thought. Respect was won through strength, and wasn't through flattery on the surface. If it wasn't for him being powerful enough, things would be like back then during the ranking battles. These generals wouldn't even be bothered with him.
In the palace, Shun closed his eyes in meditation. At this moment, Juyu came over and said, "There's another general who came by to congratulate."
"Didn't I already say that it's the same if you met them for me?" Shun calmly replied.
"It's Lia." Juyu spoke. Shun opened his eyes as an expression of interest appeared on his face.
Lia actually came by to congratulate him?
During the ranking battle, after Lia abandoned him, he accepted Juyu's invitation, becoming her protector. At that time, Lia even said that he was the one who betrayed her, showing killing intent wanting to finish him off.
Right now, this Lia actually still dared to come over to meet him?
"Let her enter." Shun calmly spoke.
"Roger." Juyu stepped out. She came to the repaired stairway and glanced downwards at the devil general Lia below. Lia was still as beautiful as ever, possessing an extraordinary demeanor.
Juyu couldn't help but to admit that both of them were females, but Lia's beauty was far above hers.
"Come on up." Juyu spoke. Lia frowned, in the past Juyu was merely the last-ranked general, how would she have been so brazen towards her? But now after becoming Shun's protector, Juyu actually acted in such a manner.
Lia walked up the stairway slowly, coming to the side of Juyu as she transmitted her voice, "You are just a protector, why didn't you bow when you see me, a general?"
Juyu glanced at Lia. Today, Lia was still clad in simple clothing but that had no way to hide her alluring figure. That in combination with her cold attitude, caused many to not dare to profane her beauty with their eyes.
"Even when I meet my general, I don't have to bow. Let alone you." Juyu calmly replied, continuing to lead the way.
"Generals are generals and protectors are protectors. Don't you feel that you've elevated your position too much?" Lia transmitted her voice as she followed.
"You think too highly of the generals. Are you assuming I should fear and respect all of the generals? I'm afraid I have to disappoint you. Although I'm a protector, I became one willingly. Right now, you are in the third general palace, and not your own. And he even allows me to peruse all the arts and innate technique manuals that were hoarded here. What about you, Lia?"
Juyu's domineering reply caused Lia to snort coldly. Sharpness gleamed in her eyes, as an unusual light could also be seen within.
Outside the hall, Juyu didn't enter. As a protector, she would guard the entrance to the throne hall when Shun meets with other generals.
Lia entered alone and saw Shun who was sitting on the throne.
Back in the past when she first saw him, she was the one sitting on a throne, peering down at him, giving him the position as her knight.
While right now, their positions were reversed.
"I came to offer my congratulations to general." Lia bowed, showing no hints of unwillingness.
The generals in the valley could truly bow when and as needed. Lia's state of heart was truly extraordinary.
If she was truly too proud, there was no way that she would come here to congratulate Shun today. Since she was here, it meant that she wanted to neutralize the grudge between them.
For a powerful existence that could kill Zonn, if Shun viewed her with enmity, it would be an extremely dangerous thing in the perspective of Lia.
"Lia." Shun stood up and walked down from the throne. He slowly moved towards Lia, staring at her sexy curves openly.
Lia calmly stared at Shun's eyes, there were no fluctuations within.
"Didn't you want to dig my eyes out?" Shun laughed. Back then when he glanced at Lia, he was threatened by her.
"Sir general must be joking." Lia spoke. "If in the past I showed some disrespect to the third general, I still hope that the third general would forgive me. If you need Lia to do anything to compensate for my rudeness back then, please just tell me directly."
"Is that so?" Shun took another step forward, his body pressing closer to Lia's.
Stretching out his hand, he wrapped it around her waist, feeling the softness of her skin as a look of enjoyment appeared on his face.
Lia's body trembled slightly, there was panic flashing through her eyes but there was also a sharp coldness.
"What if I want you?" Shun stared into Lia's beautiful eyes as he spoke, his finger lightly brushing across her body, before tipping her chin up.
Lia stared at him. Her gaze soon returned to her normal calmness as she spoke emotionlessly, "For us devil experts, the body is merely an external layer of flesh. If sir general likes it, I wouldn't have any objections."
Shun let go of her, when he did that he could clearly sense the tensed body of Lia relax a notch. As a female, how could one truly not care about their body?
When the eighth-ranked general Situ coveted her, Lia clearly wanted to kill him.
"Give me your best efforts and aid me in one thing. If you are successful, I will forget what happen between us in the past." Shum turned about, returning to his devil throne.
The him now exuded a terrifying majesticness, causing Lia to sigh silently in her heart.
Earlier when he showed her that lecherous side of him, as well as now, he who was exuding an imposing majesticness, which then, was the real him?
"Please command me." Lia spoke.
"Help me search for some people. After you have found them, do not do anything recklessly and come and report to me immediately." Shun spoke. After that, he transmitted her the info regarding the four..
His wives and Fenrir included.
"Okay." Lia nodded.
"You can leave." Shun waved his hands. Lia bid farewell and departed. She drew in a deep breath and she discovered that her clothes were actually wet from perspiration. Clearly, she wasn't as calm and collected as she appeared to be on the surface.
If Shun wanted to acquire vengeance for her past actions, her strength wouldn't be enough to stop him.
When devil experts act, they were often uninhibited and extremely tyrannical. As long as Shun didn't kill her directly, he could do whatever he wanted to her and those above wouldn't say anything. Strength was power.
Hence, if Shun really wanted to do some vile things to her, she could only accept it silently.
Lia left. Juyu walked into the devil hall, staring at Shun as she asked, "You feel reluctant to deal with her because she is a beauty?"
"Is she beautiful?" Shun smiled. "To me, she poses no threat at all, and she can even be of use to me. Leaving her alive to do things for me, isn't that even better?"
Juyu knew what Shun was referring to. She couldn't help but to feel a little bewildered. As for those people Shunn wanted to find, who were they exactly?
"Reporting to sir general, the direct attendant of the devil king is here, wanting to meet with you." From outside the palace, a voice rang out, causing Shun's eyes to squint. Has his actions startled the devil king?
Although devil lords also had the chakra bases of devil kings the only person who could claim to be the sovereign of this place, was none other than the Blackstone Devil King.
His divine sense swept by, Shun saw someone floating in the air outside the palace. It was none other than the direct attendant, and he seemed to be waiting for himself to go out and meet with him.
This devil king's attendant seemed to have sensed something. He turned his gaze towards the palace, as his eyes gleamed with sharpness, seemingly able to see through everything. It felt like he could see Shun staring right at him.
"Are direct attendants considered to have a higher status compared to generals?" Shun transmitted his voice to Juyu.
"The devil king's attendants are merely his imperial bodyguards, they don't have any power or authority associated with that status. Who do you think then, ranks higher?" Juyu spoke.
"However, many generals hope that they would be able to become an attendant because they wish to get closer to the devil king. Other than a few truly powerful devil generals, everyone would give the attendants face."
"Understood." Shun laughed. He turned his gaze outside and spoke, "Since he wants to meet with me, tell him to come on in."
As the sound of his voice faded, Juyu's eyes narrowed. The bodies of the guards outside trembled violently, thinking that they might have heard wrongly. They only felt their hearts pounding wildly, the third general wanted the attendant to head in personally to meet with him?
"This..."
"This fellow." Juyu stared at Shun's eyes which were now gleaming sharply. How tyrannical. She initially wanted to say something but she decided to be quiet and shut her mouth instead.
The third-ranked general could kill anyone he likes to. If Shun wanted to do things this way, who was she to say no?
The direct attendant of the devil king was merely a bodyguard. It doesn't have any authority attached to it. Hence, it's only natural for the attendant to come in to see him, instead of him going out to receive him.
During the ranking battles, a direct attendant of the devil king appeared. Most of the devil generals paid their respects but the first devil general still sat calmly on his war chariot. Why did everyone feel that it was only normal?
The first general could have some imposiness, but he Shun, didn't have it? Why must he go out to meet with the direct attendant?
"Didn't you hear what I said?" Shun coldly spoke. After that, the people outside the palace trembled from fear. They could only turn about and faced the attendant, "Sir, general tells sir attendant to head into the palace to meet with him.
The attendant's eyes gleamed with coldness. He naturally heard Shun's words earlier, there was in fact no need to repeat them.
He stood there as he icily spoke, "The third-ranked general Shun, listen to your orders. The third princess has commanded you to meet with her. Farewell."
As the sound of his voice faded, the attendant flicked his sleeves and departed.
"Third princess?" A look of bewilderment appeared on Shun's face.
Juyu also started. After that, she laughed, "Seems like your action of killing Zonn and taking over the position of the third-ranked general, have already garnered the attention of those major characters within the valley."
Clearly, the princess was the daughter of the Blackstone Devil King!
