Chapter 585: Chapter 586: Still Dare to Deny? [First Update, Please Subscribe]

"Do you dare?"

Wu Tian’s bold words infuriated the crowd.

"We dare! If you dare, why wouldn’t we?"

"That’s right! I also bet you don’t have a single friend."

"Who would dare associate with you right now? Aren’t they afraid of being implicated?"

The others all laughed and agreed, each taking up the bet with Wu Tian.

In their minds, this bet was already won. Wu Tian was bound to lose! Then, his head would be theirs.

Zhao Bin was also pleased.

"Fine," Wu Tian chuckled. "Then I’ll have my friend come and find me."

He then found a table with Qin Yuhan and the others. They sat down without any intention of leaving the restaurant.

"If you don’t go outside, how is your friend supposed to find you?" one of them asked.

"Have you already made arrangements?" Zhao Bin and the others began to speculate.

Wu Tian smiled and gently uttered two words, "Spiritual Sense."

Zhao Bin and the others exchanged stunned glances and then burst out laughing. Everyone knew that the higher one’s cultivation, the broader their Spiritual Sense! But using it to notify someone was another matter entirely. That required Spiritual Sense techniques, even Spiritual Martial Skills.

Ever since the Wutian Celestial Emperor had vanished without a trace, those who had mastered such skills in the Immortal Emperor Realm were few and far between. Without exception, they were all people of great prominence. How could this Wu Tian possibly be one of them? Zhao Bin and the others concluded that Wu Tian was simply boasting.

Wu Tian, however, simply sipped his tea while extending his Spiritual Sense, notifying City Lord Guang from Duke Guang’s Mansion and the young Princess Si’er in the Royal Palace.

Wu Tian and his companions were on the second floor of the restaurant. Before long, a commotion erupted downstairs.

"My friend is here," Wu Tian said with a small smile.

Using one’s Spiritual Sense to survey the surroundings was a skill many people possessed. But using it for other purposes was not something everyone could do. This was especially true for the people in the restaurant, who were mostly wealthy nobles with no real accomplishments in their Martial Arts Cultivation.

"Li Liang, go downstairs and see what’s going on," Zhao Bin commanded. "Find out who it is that still dares to admit they’re Wu Tian’s friend at a time like this!"

"Yes, sir." Li Liang nodded. In the hierarchy of officialdom, Zhao Bin was his superior, so he immediately headed downstairs.

Zhao Bin was eager to see if a friend of Wu Tian’s had really arrived. Under these circumstances, who would possibly dare to make such a claim?

A moment later, Li Liang returned upstairs, his face grim.

"Who is it?" Zhao Bin asked. Seeing Li Liang’s expression, he had a sinking feeling.

"City Lord Guang has arrived with his men," Li Liang stammered. "He says..."

"The Guang Family and the Wu Family have been friends for generations upon generations," a powerful voice declared. Before Li Liang could finish, City Lord Guang himself strode up the stairs, his presence commanding.

The faces of Zhao Bin and the others turned ashen, unable to believe what they were hearing. Wu Tian had killed the Regent King, the leader of all corrupt officials! It would have been normal for City Lord Guang, a known bastion of integrity, to protect Wu Tian from them. But Wu Tian had also killed Master Dao Zuo of the King’s Teachers. Why would City Lord Guang still protect him?

They simply couldn’t believe what they were seeing. What on earth was wrong with City Lord Guang? Everyone in the court and beyond knew that City Lord Guang was a man of supreme composure and impartiality. Why was he going to such lengths to shield Wu Tian now? Has he lost his mind?

If City Lord Guang were truly calm and wise, he would know the correct choice to make.
