Chapter 8 - Episode 8: Infiltrating part 2

Meeting room…

Silence and tension enveloped the room, Wei Ling She and Man Yu knelt in front of Rong So Kan and the higher-ups of the Tai Wong Martial Arts College.

Even though Rong So Kan's eyes are covered with white cloth, they believe that the head of the school can still see with his mind's eye.

"Explain, what really happened? I heard that these college students ran away after meeting Rongyao Zhi Guang, what exactly are you guys doing? Why did you go to Rajawali College?" asked Rong So Kan curiously.

"Chairman, didn't they leave on the chairman's orders?" asked Lan Gui in surprise.

"True, but I didn't tell them to fight against Rongyao Zhi Guang. You won't be able to beat him, he is the incarnation of the devil," said Rong So Kan fabricating a lie.

Lan Gui, Man Yu, Wei Ling She and the others were shocked. They seemed not to believe what the chairman of Tai Wong said, the Devil is a Jin nation then that means Rongyao is a Jin.

"Chairman, I saw his feet touch the ground while walking," Wei Ling She said in fear, he didn't expect that he had been dealing with ghosts all this time.

Rong So Kan glanced at Wei Ling She behind the ribbon covering his eyes. "Afraid of what? He is not a demon, you will understand one day. But now I have an order for you guys, go to Eagle school and give Rongyao Zhi Guang poison. Don't let him get suspicious, you pretend to apologize and then invite him to drink at the teahouse."

"Poison?" Lan Gui asked to make sure, she didn't want to hear it wrong.

"Right, I want Wei Ling She to put the liver-crushing poison into Rongyao's tea. I'm sure he'll perish after that." Rong So Kan grinned faintly, she couldn't wait to see Rongyao Zhi Guang dying and then dying.

They all looked at each other, for some reason they felt that the head was like having a personal grudge against the head of the Rajawali martial arts school.

Rong So Kan had a hunch that his student was questioning his decision. "Listen, I don't want anyone to argue. Just do what I say, now disperse.I want to rest first, Lan Gui and Wei Ling She, both of you, in my room."

No one dared to speak up, they were all just submissive and obedient to the leader's orders.

Royal College…

Hya…

At dawn, Rongyao Zhi Guang stood in front of the disciples to train them in internal medicine. Watching every move the new students made, he always did it himself to honor the parents and students who had just joined.

"Listen to all of you! Rajawali College doesn't need students who are lazy, like to complain and don't want to work hard and don't respect fellow friends."

All the new students silently lowered their heads, not daring to raise their heads, they were made up of men and women. The aura emitted from the master was so strong that no one could move.

"Before you start learning moves, you have to train your physical strength first. Do you understand?!" The sapphire iris gaze swept across the college students. Beside Rongyao there were several higher-ups sitting on the available seats, they watched the Master speak.

"Yes, Master!" Exclaimed all the new students.

"Alright, the grades of students in this college are from one to nine. All of you are still beginners and have no knowledge, but there may be some who have taken training even though they are not here. Therefore, you will enter at level 1. Do you understand?" Rongyao said loudly.

"Understood, Master."

Rongyao nodded in satisfaction. "From now on, you are guided by Afzam. Every month, you guys have to come to me to run the exam, got it?"

Afzam got up from his seat and walked over to the Master of the Rajawali College, he smiled, indicating that from today forward he will be the one who will teach the new students.

Rongyao coughed softly, he turned his body to make room for Afzam. He walked over to his oversized chair, looking straight at the students who from today forwards were going through strenuous training.

A man with green hair turned to Rongyao, he felt that Afzam did not deserve to be a mentor for a level 1 student because the man himself had not yet passed level 8.

"Master, are you serious about making Afzam a tutor for level 1 students?" asked the man.

"Why? Is Mr. Yazora dissatisfied with my decision?" Rongyao squinted at one of the students.

"O-of course not, I wouldn't dare go against the Master's decision."Yozora immediately waved in front of Rongyao, sometimes he felt strange with the man.

Rongyao touched his stomach, and pain suddenly struck. For several days he would feel this torment every time the curse struck.

A man walked up to Rongyao Zhi Guang, in his hand was a scroll of letters. "Master, two delegates from the Tai Wong Martial Arts College gave this letter. They are still waiting in the pavilion waiting for an answer from the Master."

Rongyao took the scroll and opened it, his lips curled into a smile. Apparently Rong So Kan purposely sent someone to apologize, but it didn't seem that simple.

"Ask them to wait."

"All right, Master."The man turned his body and left the training ground.

Afzam looked back, he noticed Rongyao, it seems that the man was unwell since last night, but what happened he really didn't know.

"Zora, you convey my message to Shiroi Kumo, Hinode, Himawari and Karasu to come to my room tonight." Rongyao gave an order before getting up from her seat and leaving the place, she wondered what the Tai Wong envoy was doing. He was sure that they came not only to apologize, but that it didn't mean he had fallen into a trap. Underestimating people is also not good, especially in the martial world.

Yozora nodded, she looked at Rongyao's back silently."Master is always picky, Afzam is not at all worthy to be a mentor for new students. As long as the Master is alive, I will never be rewarded. I have to find a way to get rid of my Master, after that, I will become the Master of the Eagle Martial Arts College," he thought.

Gazebo-like building…

Wei Ling She and Lan Gui were waiting in the pavilion, they couldn't wait to take Rongyao to the teahouse and put poison in his drink.

Not long after, the man with golden yellow hair came. He walked towards the pavilion, his eyes were flat and so calm that one would hardly read his mind.

Wei Ling She immediately hid behind Lan Gui's back, he will never forget the night where he almost lost his life because of that man.

Rongyao glanced at Wei Ling She for a moment, he gave a slight smirk then walked towards the table that had been prepared.

"There's no need to be afraid, I won't lift the sword as long as that person doesn't infiltrate my room." The man took the teapot and poured it into a cup, a cup for himself and his two guests.

"Please, sit."

Lan Gui complied with Rongyao's request, he motioned for Wei Ling She to sit down with him.

"Master Rongyao, our arrival here is to convey Master Rong's deepest apologies," Lan Gui said politely.

Rongyao put the teacup back down, her lips smiling faintly in response to Lan Gui's words.

"Does Rong So Kan still think of herself as the incarnation of the Queen of the Universe?"

Wei Ling She and Lan Gui stared in wonder at the lord of the Eagle Martial College, why did he seem so concerned about the matter.

"Seems like it's still like that, then, come back. Tell him there's no need to apologize, he's been punished by the Queen." Rongyao Zhi Guang looked at the two Tai Wong martial arts students, sharp and cold.

puffs…

Lan Gui immediately vomited blood just from getting a glare from Rongyao, Wei Ling She was shocked to see it.

"Ah, it seems you are too afraid of me. To vomit blood like that, like I said from the start. I won't take up my sword as long as you don't mean anything bad, remember that our strengths are not balanced." Rongyao smiled kindly.

Wei Ling She and Lan Gui held the resentment in their hearts, they couldn't wait to take the man out of college and administer the liver destroying poison.

Lan Gui forced his lips into a smile even though deep down he wanted to kill him."Master Rongyao is too much, the two of us didn't come here for bad intentions. From the start I said, Master Rong just wanted to apologize. Therefore, I would like to invite Master Rongyao to tea."

"Drinking tea?" Rongyao smiled faintly, he did not immediately give an answer because the man suspected that the two guests had not only come to apologize.

"That's right, Master," Lan Gui replied quickly.

Rongyao Zhi Guang looked at the two men, it was obvious that Lan Gui and Wei Ling She were planning something for him. But if it's confirmed now, it's likely that they won't confess and even spread rumors that aren't true. Meanwhile, if he agrees to come along, then he must be prepared for bad things that might happen. After the full moon, at least it takes at least 3 days to return to normal, even so as a head of a martial arts college he can't avoid it.

"Fine, I'll go with you guys."

Lan Gui and Wei Ling She looked at each other, they were happy that Rongyao was willing to come along. That way, they could carry out the plan to kill the Queen of the Universe.

***

Basement…

Yozora walked down the corridor with two people behind him as bodyguards, in the dungeon there were many prisons for prisoners of war. There is an enclosed space, no one can enter it other than the Master of the Eagle Martial Arts College, that level 9 students are also incapable of.

The dungeon is guarded by the deputy Master, a demon from the Avei race. The red-eyed man was so loyal to Rongyao that Yozora always had a hard time executing plans.

The prince's red irises of the ghost valley kingdom influenced Yozora's every move, as per Rongyao's orders to guard the dungeon and not let the captives escape.

"Sir Zora, what's your move here?" The devil's loud voice greeted the level 9 disciple's ears.

Yozora terpaksa berhenti berjalan, makhluk dari kerajaan iblis itu selalu mengganggunya.

Avei's red irises glared at Yozora, he could see a dark aura emanating from the level 9 student's body.

Yozora swallowed her own saliva seeing those eyes, sometimes he felt surprised. Why is Rongyao Zhi Guang not afraid and even tensed against the demon, while he feels very afraid even though he has brought several bodyguards.

"Ghost Prince, I was ordered by the Master to visit General Tian Long. Please give me the key."

"No need, I will open the prison door. I won't let anyone take the key, the Queen of the Universe has given it to me. Don't expect you to trick me," Avei refused.

Yozora clenched her fists in anger, it was very difficult to trick Avei. He nodded in agreement, although in his heart he really wanted to snatch the prison key from the demon.

Here's another…

Lan Gui and Wei Ling She took Rongyao Zhi Guang to a tea shop, they had already sabotaged the shop so the cunning they were about to commit would not arouse suspicion.

The waiters greeted guests in a friendly manner, even one of the maidservants went straight to Rongyao and brought him in and invited him to sit at a special table.

Wei Ling She and Lan Gui glanced at each other, they signaled each other to continue with their next plan.

The two men followed the female servant who brought Rongyao to one of the tables, sitting on one of the chairs at the table.

"Master handsome, wait here I'll make the best dish at Xio's tavern," said the maid.

"Hm," Rongyao replied curtly.

The waitress smiled sweetly, she turned her body and went to the place of making dishes.

"Master Rongyao, I hope Master does not hesitate. Master can order anything, just make yourself at home." Lan Gui tried to get to know the Eagle Martial Arts Master, the corner of his eye at this.
