Chapter 664 - Don’t Mention Anything Else (1/2)

Back in the capital of the Long kingdom, Xiang Yong finally arrived to escort this important guest of his king to the dragon realm. Seeing the restaurant with the second floor demolished, he winced. This wouldn't have been their king, right? No, with how this was 'the very important restaurant of his beloved's mortal father's cousin' there was no way he'd let anything happen to this restaurant much less inflict such damage himself. So … what had happened?

He made his way inside and climbed the stairs. There were already several servants gathered and judging from the clothing, the owner of the restaurant had turned up as well.

Xiang Yong sighed. He had taken the time to give some commands before he rushed over to the mortal realm. After all, with a king that didn't bother reigning and An Bai gone now, he was the only one holding things together in the capital. He should be allowed the time to take care of these things, right? But now it seemed he had taken too much.

He pushed to the front and cleared his throat. ”I'm sorry. I was supposed to fetch two people from this restaurant. May I ask what happened here?”

Zhong Gang turned around with furrowed brows. He really didn't want to explain anything now! Who needed to ask anyway? Wasn't it obvious?! Seeing the person behind him though he couldn't help but gulp down his anger.

The man was wearing a three-layered robe embroidered with silver threads and a silver ring inlaid with violet gems on his left hand. He was … obviously very wealthy. That kind of customer couldn't be snubbed. Wait! Hadn't he just said he was here to escort somebody? Who could be escorted by somebody like this?

Zhong Gang cleared his throat and put on a flattering smile. ”Your Excellency, I'm sorry you had to see something like this. We are also unsure of what exactly happened here but it seems that two people got into a fight.”

Xiang Yong's brows twitched. One of them wouldn't be His Majesty, would it? ”Is anything known about these people?”

Zhong Gang shook his head. ”Unfortunately, no. We only know that they were looking quite … eccentric.”

”Oh? How so?”

”One of them is said to have snow-white hair and wear a silver mask while the other one had black hair and eyes and was wearing a black robe.”

Xiang Yong's brows twitched again. The former should have been Senior Xin Lan while the latter … That could be His Majesty. And those two didn't seem to see eye to eye. ”Was there anything else notable about the second person?”
