Chapter 283 - Because He Is Mo Ling
Chapter 283: Because He Is Mo Ling
Rain Admiration Pavilion.
In an elegant place in the palace, this was where members of the royal family would listen to and admire rain from.
Clear water flowed in front of the pavilion with lotus flowers and leaves floating on it. Beside the pool were Japanese banana trees and green bamboos.
Be it the gentle rain of spring or the casual showers of autumn, the sound of them landing on the different plants would bring about a different state of mind for those listening. The different sounds ringing in their ears and mind created varying sensations.
Not long after Su Zimo and the other two entered the palace, someone came forward and brought them here.
There were only two people in the Rain Admiration Pavilion.
One of them was Bai Yuhan who came before them.
Elder Zhang gritted his teeth and asked.
Right then, another voice sounded from the Rain Admiration Pavilion.
“On the basis that he’s the number one Weapon Refinement Master in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the master of Mo Spirit Weapon Workshop — Mo Ling!”
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice only to see the emperor turn around slowly, revealing his appearance. He had a wide forehead and bright, clear eyes accompanied by an aura of authority — this was the yellow-robed man who had visited Mo Spirit Weapon Workshop a couple of months ago!
The moment he said that, other than the bearded man, everyone present were dumbfounded.
That green-robed cultivator was Mo Ling?
Wasn’t Mo Ling a Golden Core?
That person was only at late-stage Foundation Establishment realm, how could he refine supreme-grade spirit weapons?
Elder Zhang’s mind was in an absolute mess – how did Mo Ling survive the assassination attempt that night a couple of months ago as a late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator?
If the emperor had not said it personally, no one would have believed it.
Even now, everyone present had doubts about it.
The bearded man was relatively calm since he knew about Su Zimo’s identity earlier on.
A flash of realization flickered across Bai Yuhan’s eyes as she thought to herself, “So, that’s your trump card. No wonder you are so calm.”
No matter what True Fire Sect or Bald Vulture had to say, as long as Su Zimo’s identity was made known, he could turn the entire situation around!
Among them, the most stunned person was the commander of the Scarlet Vulture guards, Bald Vulture.
How could this be…?
How did it suddenly turn into this…?
Bald Vulture had thought of countless possibilities but the only thing he did not expect was that this person was Mo Ling!
If that was truly the case, the fact that He Xing wanted to humiliate the number one Weapon Refinement Master in the capital of Great Zhou would only mean that he deserved to die.
Unknowingly, the rain outside had stopped!
The heavy rain left as suddenly as it came.
The emperor looked at Su Zimo with burning eyes and asked with a smile, “Mr. Mo, it’s been a long time. How have you been?”
Initially, the emperor thought that his sudden appearance would definitely cause Su Zimo to be shocked.
On the contrary, Su Zimo looked calm and composed.
He merely bowed slightly with cupped fists. “It’s my honor.”
The reason for that composure was because a few months earlier, Su Zimo had already deduced the identity of the yellow-robed man!
Bald Vulture knew that his actions had already offended Su Zimo and made up his mind. “Even if you are Mo Ling and it’s justified for you to kill He Xing, why did you have to kill my Scarlet Vulture guards?!”
Su Zimo replied, “The Scarlet Vulture guards chose to ignore things when He Xing and Pang Ming instigated the spirit lion to hurt others. Why were they suddenly trying to kill without second thoughts when it came to me?”
“In fact, commander, I suspect that you harbor ulterior motives along with True Fire Sect. You guys worked together to set up this trap in Yongxing City today to have me killed!”
The moment he said that, the expressions of the ten elders of True Fire Sect and Bald Vulture changed.
Su Zimo’s words were as sharp as a sword piercing at their hearts!
Previously, the emperor had made a clear declaration that no one was to cause trouble for Mo Ling in the future.
Now, of all people, they clashed with Mo Ling. If they could not explain it clearly, it would indeed cause the emperor to misunderstand.
By then, they would be the ones incurring the wrath of the emperor!
With just a few words, the entire situation had turned!
Outside the Rain Admiration Pavilion, a ray of sunlight broke through the gray clouds and scattered on the water, reflecting a beautiful light.
