Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World
298 Hong Family
It was a dark and musty hall. Carvings of dragons, phoenixes, and other mythical beasts were plastered on the walls.
The hall was huge. It went forward about fifty feet, and was vast enough to house thousands of people.
There was a seven feet wide corridor that bordered the entire hall, and beyond that, in the center of the hall, were thrones. True thrones decorated this hall.
Each throne was exquisitely crafted. Carvings that depicted stories of warriors, of beasts that defied the heavens, and of a singular man rising above all else.
Every single throne had a different story, and every single throne was probably as expensive as the throne's weight in gold.
But what made each of them worth more were the jewels that plastered them. They were not just shining crystals that reflected light that shone upon them. They were monster cores that shone brightly on their own.
But every single throne was empty. Every single one, but the one that was at the head of the hall.
At the very front of the hall was a throne that was raised above every other throne, and this one was even more majestic. If anyone were here, they would think that this throne was for the king himself, for the one who ruled above every one else.
The throne was massive, but the seat itself was normal. With extravagant decorations making the throne taller and wider, it looked like a throne made for a giant, and then adjusted for a human.
And on this throne, a middle-aged man sat, his eyes closed, his left hand supporting his head from falling.
"Family master! Family master! Something terrible has happened!" a sudden voice came from the depths of the other end of the hall as the two doors to this throne room creaked open and a plump man started running toward the man on the other end.
Opening his cold and distant eyes, he gazed upon the person who had just arrived.
"What was so terrible that you disturbed me from my sleep for?" a loud and booming voice echoed within the entire hall.
"Forgive me, Family head, but this really is a matter of such importance. The entire Moon Pavilion is no more! We have just received word from Hong Yu that the second prince was in mortal danger, but has now been saved by his helper from the palace. There was a lot that happened during the event in the Moon Pavilion." the plump man said.
"The Moon Pavilion is no more? Elaborate, you fool. Talk clearly." the Family Master shouted.
"Yes, master. A beast has apparently escaped, and has wrecked havoc in the sect, completely destroying it. All four Soul Evolution Experts of the Pavilion have reportedly died, and the people responsible for this were apparently called Liu Feng, Liu Man, and the other was was the Moon Princess herself." the plump man said as he bowed his head down.
He was terrified of this man that he called the family master. No one wanted to be the person who had to wake up this madman, but he had to assume the job because he had no other choice!
"Has Hong Yu returned? To the family? Where is he?" the family master asked.
"He is on the way. A mount has been sent to pick him up, and I have received message that the young master has gotten on the beast to come this way." the plump man nodded.
"And is the beast still there?"
"I am not sure, Family Master. I did not receive any information regarding that." the plump man said.
"You fool!" a sudden pressure descended from the family master, and it swept the plump man away. He crashed into the wall that was almost forty feet away, and immediately blew into bits of blood and skin.
"Ah! I forgot that he was just in the Foundation Establishment stage, the fool." the family head shook his head.
He then tilted his head to his left.
"We need to go to the Moon Pavilion. Assemble everyone. We need to salvage whatever is left of that place. It is still one of the largest sects of the kingdom, and it has lasted longer than we have. I need to know the secrets that lie in there." he said.
"As you wish, family master." a deep voice came from the shadows in the corner, but there was no one there!
It was truly too mysterious.
"And find out who this Liu Feng and Liu Man are. They dare do something that is detrimental to the Hong family? They better pay the price. For too long, the Hong family was passive because of some kitten that threatened us and people start thinking that they can actually match us? Send a few Xiantian experts to teach them both a lesson and hang them in the capital to show everyone what will happen to those who dare go against us."
"As you wish. Should I go there myself?"
"Yes. That is for the best. Atleast the job will be done." the family master nodded.
Swoosh!
He then got up, stretching his limbs, and looked forward.
All of a sudden, a middle aged man appeared with an unconscious young man in his hands. He dropped the young man on the floor, and fell to the floor on his knees himself, coughing out blood.
"What the hell happened, for someone like you to be so injured? Did you meet the beast yourself?" the family head laughed.
"No. I met that bastard that caused all of this. He is in the seventh layer of the Soul Evolution stage. I still don't know how someone so young can be so powerful. We need to be careful about this person." the man said, coughing out more blood.
But all the blood on the Family master's face drained.
"He is in the Soul Evolution stage? But I just sent the goddamn leader of my shadow guards to take care of him!" he exclaimed.
"Call it off! We can't afford to go into an all out war when you already have that Green Gale Tiger that hates you to the bone!"
"You fool! I can't call of an attack given to the Shadow guard! That is why they don't carry any talismans. They don't communicate with the outside world till they complete their task.
"Good then. That guard of yours is as good as dead."
