Chapter 900

(Unedited)

While Shin Jiao's group is gone, Im Jae, Olley El'fore, Loombwark Diggingsons, her mother Warkita Diggingsons, and Phil Mason decided to leave for the Elven Kingdom. They have informed Shin Jiao about this decision and have gained his permission.

So along with a couple of mage guards, a total of 10 people took off from the flying ship into the forest. Their destination is the elven kingdom in the Dragon's Ridge.

Phil Mason decided to go with them because it has been a long time since he visited the elves. In his travels, he would usually go to the elven city and do some trades with them.

He has also visited other races in other places like the Dragon's Ridge, for example, the ever-illusive Heaven Valley, the mysterious Phoenix Nest, and the deadly Demon Gorge. He has been in these places and has met many races in these places.

However, he has a closer affinity with the elves in the Dragon's Ridge than any other place.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao is calmly enjoying the party while Isabel Nightingale has already begun mingling with her diehard fans. The rest of his people also mingle with the rest especially Hua Xiao and Xiamen Gong who began talking with some of the biggest merchant nobles in the city.

Meanwhile, Vilma Song decided to stand beside Shin Jiao as she enjoys the food and wine with Shinyu Jiang.

Suddenly someone from the crowd walked near them.

"Excuse me… If I am not wrong… you are the Great Scholar Jiang, right? You've been serving under the previous king and the current king of both light and darkness believers… I… I thought you were dead?" the man said with a hint of confusion and doubt in his words.

From the way, he talks he seems to be a bit familiar with Shinyu Jiang.

When she looks at the man and saw the emblem hanging on his belt, her expression immediately changed into one of surprise.

"Eh… You are a researcher from Xinglo Academy!…" she exclaimed.

"Yes… I'm right… You are the famous Professor Jiang. I… I never would have expected to see you here. We heard the news that your group was attacked and your whole research team was wiped out…"

When she heard those words, she felt a bit hurt. That incident is a great dilemma for her that has always caused her to feel guilty all the time. Those people followed her and helped her in her research. However, they still died because of her negligence. So she feels remorseful and responsible for their deaths.

Ever since that day that she was captured, she vowed to never do research again. But that was until she met Shin Jiao and his group. When they saved her, she discovered a whole new world of endless possibilities and began teaching and researching in the flying ship from then on.

She just came on this trip for a breath of fresh air after finishing her research on the ship.

"I never would have expected to see someone from the research academy…" she said with an embarrassed expression.

"I'm sorry… I knew that it was a great loss on your part to lose your team. But since you are back why don't you go back to the research academy with me. We would gladly accept you again… By the way, we are currently researching the technology that the Mystique Shop has been creating. It is really something wondrous that made me excited… I wish I can go to their shop and see how they make those things…" the man said animatedly as he excitedly exclaimed.

Shinyu Jiang smiled sheepishly as she did not know what to say. Shin Jiao on the side showed a fascinated expression as the man describes the things about the Mystique Shop. He knew that this guy just arrives at the party and he seems to be an important person as the guards did not stop him from entering.

"If he knew that Shinyu Jiang is one of the people that assembled those techs, how will he react then? Haha…" Shin Jiao chuckled in his mind.

Meanwhile, the people at the party became a bit rowdy when suddenly a group of armored soldiers barges inside the hall.

Shin Jiao immediately saw this and he looks at the soldiers. In one look he already recognizes two of them.

It was General Faosei Lao and General Lin Simo.

When the 3rd prince saw the female general his expression turned dark. This is because, that woman is the fiancée of his eldest brother the 1st prince, whom the people have already considered as the newly crowned prince.

But the truth is that his eldest brother is not yet confirmed as the crown prince as the official coronation has not yet been held.

But the rumor has already spread of him being the crown prince, and this made the 3rd prince and the 2nd prince feeling a bit dejected. Plus their father the king did not even correct this news which solidified the rumor further.

And now that he saw this woman, he feels a bit angry at the same time jealous.

The reason for his jealousy is because the Simo family chooses his older brother rather than him to be the fiancée of Lin Simo. Ever since young, he has admired Lin Simo for a long time.

Her strong personality and her unyielding character are unlike any other noblewoman in the kingdom. She would always speak her mind and open what she really feels. Plus she is also a powerful warrior. At the young age of 26, she is already a 38th level warrior and a general of the kingdom's army at that.

While he is watching the woman, he discovered that she suddenly shifted her gaze in his direction. When their eyes met, she nodded her head as a form of a greeting.

The 3rd prince was a bit unhappy. Although she is his brother's fiancée, he is still a prince. How could she just casually nod at him and not greet him properly?

While in this line of thought, he noticed the Viscount and the mayor walking in his direction.

"Price Lamier… we have a problem…" the Viscount said with a worried tone.

"What is happening? It seems that the general is busy, that's why he was not able to attend the banquet…" Prince Lamier asked.

"This general greets Prince Lamier and Prince Jun… I was busy with the borders; we just had a big problem in our hands."

"What do you mean? I thought that the mysterious man has already killed the giant turtle…"

"Yes, well… the problem is, the plants have already infected a lot of beasts in the forest and a village has fallen into their control… and also… The 12th prince… Gulliver is actually in the front lines…"

When Lamier Grav and Jun Grav hard this, their expression changed. Although Gulliver is not a direct son of the king, he is also entitled to a prince because of his relationship with the royal family.

Gulliver the calm or Gulliver Astride is a 30th level warrior and at the same time a 1st level Arch Mage. He is a genius fighter that likes to travel around the outer world.

But as a prince, the king has always liked him because of his contribution to the kingdom and his accomplishments on the battlefield.

If he is not a prince, the king would have already given him a general's title.

And so upon hearing this, the expression of Lamier Grav and Jun Grav turned dark. How could they not know that Gulliver Astride is in the faction of his older brother the 1st prince?

"General, we have to go and protect the people…" suddenly Jun Grav feel that he needed to show everyone what he can do.

If he can display his capability at this point, then he might get a chance to overthrow his older brother and get the crown prince position.

Upon thinking up to this point, he became excited while thinking of the possibility. He turns his gaze at his uncle and Lamier nodded his head in agreement.

The Viscount and the Mayor feel that everything is not what supposed to be. The prince should be escaping rather than fighting, right?

What would they tell the king if the prince got hurt in Main Arjing City?

"Prince Jun… I think it is best to leave the fighting to the soldiers…" the Viscount said with a worried smile on his face.

"Nonsense, I will fight with the soldiers…" Jun Grav said proudly.

The young female nobles in the area clapped their hands and said praises to the 3rd prince. Lamier, on the other hand, is already preoccupied with what to do next to bolster the fame of the 3rd prince in this event.

While this is happening, Lin Simo sneered while looking at the pompous 3rd prince. But then her expression suddenly changes when she saw a familiar face.

Shin Jiao and her eyes accidentally met and the two look at each other. Her expression turned dark upon remembering that shameful event where she was sent running away by that bastard.

She clenches her fist and just glared at Shin Jiao.
