Chapter 300: Sword God Rey In the royal family of the Valeria Empire. "Father, we have found the information about the most excellent doctor in our empire. But he is "His" brother. No wonder he is so arrogant," the young man’s face turned dark. When the middle-aged man on the throne heard this, his face turned grim too. He knew whom his son was referring to by the word "his" brother. Even their empire trembled in front of that name, so no one uttered his name anymore. "So what if he is ’his’ brother? We are just going to request his brother’s aid. Won’t he even allow that?" the emperor asked coldly. The young man, who was the current crown prince of the Valeria Empire, stood there without any response. The emperor didn’t force him either because he knew the fear of his son was justified. They had sent some of their spies to deliver their offer to that doctor, but he instantly refused it. When their spy tried to force him, those vicious villagers bit him so badly that he was now half-crippled. "We won’t play hide and seek anymore. Send the Divine Palace a message that we are just the middleman. The Aurion Empire has asked for every capable healer from every continent to go to their empire. Are they willing to go to war against the empire?" In the Sun Kingdom, in the Heavenly Fate Sect or ’The Divine Palace,’ There was a meeting going on. Even the king of the Sun Kingdom was present there, but not as a king, but as a servant. An old man had a tray in his hand, and there was a letter with the seal of the Valeria Empire’s royal family. The old man was slowly walking toward the grand throne. There was sitting a young man, only 10-11 years old, but he was so handsome that he could even make a girl’s heart burst with excitement just with his mere presence. His charm was that irresistible because though he was only 10 years old, he looked like 16. His eyes were cold, and a supreme and sharp aura was radiating from his body. "Sword God, please have a look at this. The Valeria Empire has sent an official letter." "Read it out loudly, Sabro," the young man ordered the old man calmly. "Yes, your majesty." He opened the letter and started reading it. "Sword God, the Aurion Empire has ordered every continent’s every empire to send their most capable healer to their empire. We had contacted your brother to go there, but he refused. We don’t want any kind of problem. As you are a member of my empire, I am willing to plead on your brother’s behalf. But ask him to come with my men nicely. If the emissaries of the Aurion Empire arrive, your brother’s situation won’t remain good by then." As soon as he finished the letter, the entire room fell silent because a suffocating killing intent was released from the young man. They could see millions of supremely powerful corpses in that physically manifested killing intent. "Sword God, please calm down. The entire kingdom would be gone if a single drop of your killing intent fell on the outside world.", Sabro cried out. "The Valeria Empire just threatened me, right? I can now destroy their royal family, right?" he gave a chilling smile. No one dared to even breathe loudly, lest they make his majesty, the Sword God, angrier. Only Sabro had the courage to speak. "Your majesty, please calm down. The Aurion Empire is not a force we can take on right now. Let’s think first." "Those bastards think he will go to their empire? In these past two years, he didn’t even come to see me once. And they had the nerve to order him around." Rey couldn’t help but laugh out loudly when he thought about Ethan. After coming to the capital city of the Sun Kingdom two years ago, Rey was revealed to a truth, and that truth was told by none other than Sabro, the alchemist, the house master of the house where he and Ethan stayed for a month or two. He told him that the real name of the Heavenly Fate Sect was the Divine Palace, and he wanted him to go through the inheritance trial of the previous palace master who died mysteriously a thousand years ago. Rey couldn’t decide at first what he should do, as he always relied on Ethan for every difficult decision in his life. But Ethan wasn’t beside him anymore. He needed to decide for himself from then on. After thinking for two days, Rey decided to take the trial. Sabro took him to the trial ground. "Rey, we don’t know what is lying behind that door. I think it can be a separate world entirely. The palace master only left two sentences. ’Anyone who has the purple talent and above can take the trial. But his heart would have to be firm.’ But we couldn’t find a single purple talent even after searching for thousands of years. Then one day, we learned that our destiny was bright in the Sun Kingdom, and we came here with this fake sect name. We have been recruiting people from then on. Our people spread to different parts of the kingdom, and I went to that village to wait for our destined one. The day you and Ethan came, I knew instantly that one of you must be our destined one." Sabro stopped after saying this. Rey was speechless. Ethan had told him about the destiny stone Grandpa Lucas gave him. "I think his destiny stone brought us to my destined place. Haha, he would be pissed off if he knew this," Rey couldn’t help but get a little amused. The destiny stone really didn’t have enough power to read Ethan’s destiny, so it brought them to Rey’s destined place instead. Rey entered the trial ground. After five months, he came out as the current him. His Sword Saint talent was upgraded to Sword God talent, and that was not all. He had absorbed the full power of the previous palace master somehow, which made him as strong as the palace master, if not stronger than him, because of his Sword God talent. That day, the entire Divine Palace pledged their loyalty to him, including Sabro. Rey was now a Tier 12 existence, capable of destroying the entire Valeria Empire with a snap of his fingers. But he could only do that because he felt an extreme sense of danger when he thought about going to the central continent. For the past one and a half years, the Divine Palace had already achieved their former glory by killing all its past enemies. There was no force in the empire that could stand against them. Even the royal family of the empire became just a paper tiger. They had not much say in the matter of important decisions of the empire. All was managed by the Divine Palace. After becoming Sword God, Rey went to the village to meet Ethan. He asked him to go with him to the capital of the Sun Kingdom, but Ethan flatly rejected him. Instead, he said, "Send me some good cultivation techniques instead, little Sword God." There was not a single soul in the empire who could say something like this to him, except that young man. He behaved as if Sword God was no big deal. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶 Rey could only helplessly come back and send all the copies of the cultivation techniques to Ethan the next day. Rey again laughed out loudly when he remembered those past encounters with Ethan. "Still as confident as ever. But I promise, Ethan, no one can touch that peaceful life of yours as long as I am alive. Not even the Aurion Empire." Rey’s eyes turned cold again. "Send a reply that Ethan isn’t going anywhere without his wish. If they want a war, a war they will get. The Divine Palace doesn’t fear anyone." Sabro could only sigh. "Still as hot-blooded as ever. But what can we say? The Divine Palace could break all its past records only because of him. We were some stray dogs before." Sabro sent the reply to the empire. "Be prepared for war. We will show the world what the Divine Palace can do, what I can do," Rey ordered calmly and stood up from his throne. Meanwhile, in the ’Sage Village,’ it was the name that came from the Sage Doctor. Ethan woke from his cultivation session. "Get the fuck off my head, Blue. How much fatter are you going to become? Look at you. You can barely walk and look like a furball," Ethan said with disdain to the fat cat who was dozing off above his head. Ethan stood up, grabbed Blue from his head, and took him into his embrace. "Can you imagine, Blue, it has been one and a half years since Rey became the Sword God. If Mother and Father could see him, they would surely be proud of him," he said while stroking the shiny hair of Blue. "And look at me, I am just a healer. I haven’t even become strong enough to take Grandpa’s revenge yet. What a shame."
