Chapter 192 - 192: Stronger Than Him
"Alright, I'll go inform them," General Yao said as he closed the doors of the carriage. He turned and walked back towards the young man blocking their path.
"I talked with Princess Zhiqing and we agree to travel together with you, but only if you and your team agree to be in the lead during the journey. " General Yao said as he directly gazed at the boy in the lead. He looked to be 21-22 years old and wore a blue shirt along with a shiny yellow robe on his back. He had sharp eyes and thin lips. His long black hair came down to his shoulders and rested above his yellow robe. He was Ling Lan, the Crown Prince of Dongxin Kingdom. At the young age of 22 years old, he had broken through to the 4th stage of gold Core Realm.
" Hah... You people don't trust us, do you?" Prince Ling Lan asked as he grinned.
"If that was really the case, Do you think that we would have agreed to travel with you people? It's not that we don't trust you people, but a small amount of wariness is necessary after all" General Yao said with a light smile.
" What do you say, Prince Lan? Do you agree to their terms? We would basically be acting as a shield for them and making their journey easier. I understand why you want to join them, but the terms are really bad." Royal Tutor Wang said to Ling Lan in a discontented tone.

"Very well. I will tell her. In the meanwhile, you can arrange your people so that we can depart right now. We don't have much time to waste" General Yao said as he walked back towards Zhiqing's carriage.
Zhiqing was looking outside the window when she noticed General Yao coming towards her carriage. She opened the door of the carriage as she saw General Yao stop in front of the door.
"It is done. The Crown Prince of Dongxin had agreed and they will lead the journey now. Our travel just became much more comfortable now" General Yao said with a bright smile on his face as Zhiqing opened the door.
She still couldn't hear a single word he said, but she could feel that General Yao was telling a piece of good news. She nodded her head with a smile.
General Yao nodded his head as he took it as her silent approval. He closed the doors of the carriage and walked back to his own carriage.
"Well, that was fun to watch. Do you have any idea what he said and did? " Mingyu chuckled with an amused smile on her face.
" Nothing at all...I feel like it all went well though. But I seriously hope this misunderstanding doesn't cause anything bad." Zhiqing let out with a wry smile on her face.
