The Hidden Myth of Ji Dara

The mere proof that people actually lived within this part of the jungle and that they had the nerves to attack the Qi Stone Farm was more than enough proof for his scheme…

Dara's group who had luckily escaped a tragic situation took their random route back home despite being an entire hour longer than normal, but they didn't mind;

They had discovered what they were after, and it was time to go reinforce themselves and return with a lot of manpower and tool to begin excavation the next day…

Meanwhile…

Back at the Royal Court…

Behind the Royal Mansion itself stood a courtyard with a beautiful garden decorating the entire outdoor area, which was built on a slightly higher ground than any other structure within the Royal Court...

Then right in the middle of this garden and at its highest point was a pergola, and rather than being a relaxation area, the floor were at first glance looked like it was beautifully designed by a sculptor…

But with deeper scrutiny, one would come to realize that these lines on the ground were meant for several things but decoration was not one of it…

It was a massive formation filled with ancient runes, and right at the center of this formation was a slight depression the size of a palm which seemed to be a slot where some energy ore or material could be laced to power up this formation…

But strangely, today, the formation was lighting up and no one was anywhere around it...

But that was not for long as soon enough, King Tian burst out of the Royal mansion at top speed seemingly afraid of whatever it was that was coming through the formation, and soon enough, strong wind began to whip about in the area...

Some veteran Royal Guards also came out to protect their king who seemed to be waiting expectantly for whatever was going to result from all these supernatural phenomena…

All of a sudden the runes began to glow with bright light that kept intensifying as the moment progressed, and when this brightness got to a point where everyone in the area had to shield their eyes from it, it abruptly vanished with a soft  Bang!

Whoosh!

All the wind which had gathered around this formation dispersed with a considerable force, pushing some of the guards of their feet whilst King Tian for some strange reasons was able to keep himself upright…

Now, after everything was back to normal, three figures in black hooded cloaks had appeared right in the middle of the formation and as soon as King Tian saw them, he went straight to his knees and bowed till his face were touching the ground;

"You may rise up, ant…"

The figure on the left of the three spoke, and it was the voice of a girl in her late teens who was covered by the cloak, but from the curves visible on the wide cloaks, one could tell that the body underneath this cloak would be the sexiest so far...

King Tian scrambled to his feet whilst bowing every now and then like a devoted worshipper who was finally given the opportunity to meet their god…

He led these figures into his personal chambers where no one but him had the permission to enter except otherwise given, and not even his scribe could come in here as it was like a sacred holy ground;

"Our lords and lady, hope your journey didn't take too much toll?"

"Let me call some servants to arrange a very nice hot bath for you, with some good food afterwards, and a nice relaxation area…"

"After you have rested up, I will come find you and receive your next set of orders…"

Though, they didn't say anything, their silence and change in disposition after King Tian laid down all this little refreshments showed that they were all empty people who relished in being treated and called Lords and Lady;

These were extremely fickle attitudes common with people who are deemed powerful in lower realms but extremely weak where they come from, all to the naivety of the rulers of the lower realms by the way…

King Tian really showed that he was efficient because everything he had said was carried out in less than ten minutes, and soon enough three empty mansions which were reserved for visitors and emissaries around the Royal Court entrance was rapidly cleaned up and in one of the mansions, there was a guy in a hot tub, surrounded by seven naked young ladies who were tending to his every needs…

Each hand and feet were being tended to as he received a nice hot manicure and pedicure…

Another lady was massaging his shoulders, whilst two were within the tub with him, one feeding him small fruits whilst the other supplying him with wine as all the ladies giggled coyly anytime he gazed at any one of them some kind of way…

In another mansion was another guy, but this one was instead within the courtyard of his mansion and was currently with a wooden sword in hand and about 30 Royal Guards whom King Tian trusted the most…

Apparently, he seems like someone who uses ever single free time he had to train, and knowing that he had better fighting prowess, experience and techniques than anyone on the Planet of Jok, King Tian usually sent his most trusted Royal Guards to serve at sparring partners…

Though, they usually get broken limbs and this guy usually dispatched them with relative ease, all these Guards still love sparring with him whenever he came because it greatly increases their fighting prowess by tremendous leaps; 

Ka! Ka! Pa!

Zoom!

Slam! Bang!

Crash!

Tak! Pok!

Different sounds of flesh hitting flesh and wood hitting wood and several other cross sectional sounds rang out from the courtyard, as these people sparred, some Elders and even King Tian was present at this time and they were all watching with creased forehead pouring out buckets of perspiration;

"He is a monster!" One of the Elders around couldn't help but mutter in sheer amazement....
