Chapter 656: Chapter 441 Secret Letter, “Heavenly Elder’s” Terror
Under Lin Zhirui’s warning, Yan Canghai finally realized that the situation was more severe than he had imagined.
He dared not delay any further and imdiately wrote an urgent secret letter in the most solemn tone.
Then he dispatched the fastest ssenger hawk from the mansion to send out the letter.
Yet, even so, he still felt quite uneasy.
He understood the pride of the Royal Family all too well.
Especially so of the elders in the clan, that arrogance had long been ingrained in their bones.
Therefore, he really couldn’t predict what reaction the Royal Family would have upon receiving the letter.
Now his only hope was that his letter could make those elders see the situation clearly.
The ssenger hawk, specially bred for delivering letters, was extrely fast, and under Yan Canghai’s anxiety, it took only one day to reach the royal capital.
It then landed in a palace.
A clerk responsible for receiving letters saw the urgent seal exclusive to the Royal Family on the envelope.
He dared not slack off and imdiately took the letter to the palace.
Soon, the letter appeared before an elder dressed in a dragon pattern yellow robe.
“The highest-level urgent secret letter from the Royal Family?”
The Yellow Robed Elder saw the seal on the secret letter and showed a hint of surprise.
There were not many people in the entire Royal Family with such a seal.
Besides the various clan elders, only the Princes and Princes were known to have it.
“Has sothing urgent happened?”
The Yellow Robed Elder opened the letter and was montarily stunned upon seeing the salutation at the beginning.
“Is it written by that unfilial child?”
But as he continued to read, his face gradually showed anger.
By the end, he was even more furious, and with a thud, he struck the desk in front of him with a palm.
“Outrageous, truly audacious!”
A powerful aura burst from his body, collapsing everything around him.
This Yellow Robed Elder was also a Martial Arts Expert.
The commotion in the study imdiately drew the attention of the guards outside, and nurous secretive figures appeared around the study.
“No problem, stand down!”
After a while, the Yellow Robed Elder retracted his aura and waved his hand, dismissing everyone.
He picked up the letter again, read it once more, and his expression turned uncertain.
Although the matter ntioned in the letter made him angry, if it were true, the situation would be severe.
Given his understanding of that unfilial child, though he had a sowhat unruly nature, he would never joke about such matters.
After pondering for a while, the Yellow Robed Elder suppressed his anger and folded the letter, sealing it.
“Soone, prepare a carriage!”
An hour later, the Yellow Robed Elder’s carriage arrived in front of a large mansion outside the royal capital.
Having changed into a yellow plain robe, the elder got off the carriage.
He approached the entrance and courteously said to the elderly gatekeeper dozing on a lounger, “Uncle Fu, long ti no see.”
The gatekeeper, also an old man, appeared much older than the Yellow Robed Elder.
His face was wrinkled like old tree bark, and his hair was sparse.
The old man, recognizing him after a mont, smiled, showing a few sparse teeth, “It’s little Song, you haven’t co to see in ages.”
The Yellow Robed Elder wore a face of apology, “State affairs keep busy, Yan Song really couldn’t spare ti, I hope Uncle Fu forgives .”
“Oh, is that so, I’ve almost forgotten you’re a ‘King’ now.
In my mind, you’re still that little kid running around bare-bottod.
And now you’ve grown so old.” The old man suddenly realized.
“…” The Yellow Robed Elder was speechless for a mont.
He had ascended the throne decades ago, yet every ti he visited, the old man still repeated the sa lines.
But he dared not have any objections.
This old man had watched him grow up, and if he dared show a hint of disrespect, those clan elders would surely admonish him.
Despite being the King of Yan Country, in the eyes of those elders, he always remained a mber of the Yan Family.
Should he defy the clan rules, even as a King, he would be punished.
This was why, after reading the letter, he chose to co here directly instead of holding a family eting.
With those elders’ temperants, they were practically useless except for causing trouble.
Patiently, he listened to the old man’s rambling recount of past events.
Only then did the Yellow Robed Elder respectfully say, “Uncle Fu, is the ‘Heavenly Elder’ at ho, little Song has matters to discuss with him.”
“You’re looking for the master, huh? Just in luck, he erged a couple of days ago, I’ll report to him for you.”
After his rambling, the old man was in a good mood and imdiately went into the mansion.
Despite his advanced age, he moved with surprising speed.
The Yellow Robed Elder stood respectfully with his hands lowered, waiting.
He knew, with “Heavenly Elder’s” abilities, he must have already sensed his arrival.
Yet he dared not show the slightest impatience, awaiting a summons.
After a while, the old man ca out of the mansion.
“Alright, little Song, the master let you in.”
“Thank you, Uncle Fu.”
After paying a respectful salute, the Yellow Robed Elder stepped into the mansion.
As for the guards behind him, they hadn’t spoken a word from start to finish, standing solemnly in place waiting.
Upon entering the mansion, the Yellow Robed Elder felt a cool sensation seep into his heart.
Imdiately, he felt lighter, his mind becoming much clearer.
His entire body seed much more relaxed and invigorated.
He showed a look of surprise on his face.
He had visited this mansion nurous tis.
Previously, he had sensed so extraordinary qualities but never had he felt as he did today, by rely absorbing the coolness within, his body felt as if it had beco a few years younger.
