Chapter 728 - Icefairy Dao Monarch

Sword Ancestor didn't answer the question immediately. After ten minutes or so, he eventually spoke, "There is at least a few who will be tempted to come out. However, knowing their cunningness, they wouldn't come out unless there's something worthy of their time. Or it's possible for them to come out if someone asks for their help."

Usually, Dao Monarchs don't show up to the public most of the time. They always love secluding themselves from the outside world. Furthermore, the threat of a heavenly tribulation was high for monarchs compared to the chances of Imperial Lords. In result to this, monarchs didn't dare to move outside more than necessary or else it might spell doom for them. After all, the tribulation was powerful enough to tear them into pieces including their immortal palaces.

Hearing this, Headmaster Lanx gulped. It had been a long time since the last time he saw a Dao Monarch and this time, there's a chance of them coming out. For sure, the other legacies wouldn't skip this chance to see those monarchs who were still alive.

"Even if monarchs come out this time, how can they be a match against His Majesty who used to challenge the Heavens for many times?" Headmaster Lanx said. He was feeling at ease now that Primordial Emperor was here.

"We cannot fully rely on His Majesty, silly." Sword Ancestor shook his head, "His Majesty has a unique personality that you won't understand. Even those followers of his in the past had a hard time understanding his attitude pattern. But they confirmed it that His Majesty hates those fully dependent people on others."

Sword Ancestor paused for a moment and continued, "He doesn't want people depending on him too much. He doesn't want spoonfeeding people. As a matter of fact, even his disciples in the past experienced and confirmed this."

"I see." Headmaster Lanx nodded seriously, "My bad, Ancestor. I'm just so excited that His Majesty returned. News of his failure and death spread like wildfire in the upper levels of the world after all."

Han Li's rumor of death had held a heavy importance in the grand scheme of things. Many old folks were afraid of his existence and chose to hide from his sight. Now that Han Li was rumored to be dead, those in the hiding was getting more and more active. One of the results was the incoming calamity for the Dao Sword Academy.

"It's all better that way since those people will be scared to death once they realize they will about to step their death doors sooner." Sword Ancestor said. He was planning on meeting Han Li soon personally.

In a faraway land, a very secretive place that no one would dare think that someone actually was living here. The temperature of this place almost exceeded the boiling point reaching 400°. This land was covered with magma volcanoes and every hour, one was erupting and spouting hot lava.

This place felt like hell and Teacher Fairy was getting affected. As her body had the constitution of ice, the heat here was her archenemy. On the other hand, Jin Rou was fine as if the heat of this place was like a fresh cool air coming from the horizon of the seas.

"Your master sure knows how to hide herself well. She didn't change." Jin Rou chuckled.

"And you, too, haven't changed, Your Majesty." Suddenly, a beautiful figure appeared. She looked like a goddess with her long blue hair and blue robe with the finest diamonds engraved on it. She was so beautiful that all men would fall for her and go crazy afterwards.

She was covered with ice aura, so the Heat of the place wasn't affecting her. She walked gracefully like there's an invisible stare that they couldn't see.

After which, the figure knelt down in front of Jin Rou and said, "Zia Icecastle greets Your Majesty Emperor."

Teacher Fairy was stumped to see her master kneeling in front of someone. Who could possibly be this person to actually make her arrogant master kneel down? Right now, her thoughts were in chaos. She was feeling complicated and didn't know what to feel.

Icefairy Dao Monarch. It was the name of this beautiful woman kneeling in front of Jin Rou. She was one of the brilliant Dao Monarchs of the world. No one knew about her origin except Han Li. The monarch swept the Nine Heavens and made the world tremble in fear by her arrogance. She had many enemies in the past, and eventually killed them one by one. Even her fellow monarchs were treading carefully afraid they might earn the wrath of this cold blooded queen.

Icefairy looked at her disciple and gave signals using her eyes. Teacher Fairy flinched and immediately understood the signal and hurriedly knelt down in front of Jin Rou too.

"There's no need for such this, just greet me normally, will you?" Jin Rou smiled wryly. Icefairy had been always like this since in the past. Always treating everything about him with formality.

"How can I, Your Majesty? However, I must say that I am very surprised that you initiated to meet me." In this world, perhaps only one person had the right to meet Icefairy anytime except Teacher Fairy. And that's Han Li.

Icefairy said this because in the past, usually she was the one initiating to come over. As a matter of fact, she even had to serve Han Li first like a maid before having a proper talk with him. Nevertheless, she was very much okay with it. After all, the person in front of her deserved to be arrogant and prideful.

"Just stopped by to say hi. You know, it's been a long while since we've last met and I'm sure you're lonely in this place so I thought about accompanying you for a little while." Jin Rou smiled as he shrugged his shoulders.

"Your Majesty is jesting. I am used to be alone and I prefer it this way. Rather than having company that'd just stab me in the back, this is better." Icefairy Dao Monarch said. Her words were filled with coldness.. It was her honest words coming from deep within.
