THE LEGEND OF THE SWORD GOD S2

V4CH #35 PREPARATION

For quite a while the three of them discussed in this room. Not infrequently also a fairly fierce debate occurred in this place. Because, Princess Mao Shizi turned out to have extraordinary intelligence in managing strategy. But, the strategy he planned was different from the strategy Heilong wanted.

And what makes the atmosphere in this place even more uncomfortable is that they both turned out to be equally stubborn and insisted on implementing their respective strategies.

“The plan I have compiled is safer than the plan you have because we will pass through the underground road that goes directly to the Fire Bull Kingdom. That way we can both get to that place safely. Surely the time we need to go to the Fire Bull Kingdom will also be faster.”

“The plan you made is indeed very safe and shorten our travel time. But this plan is also not very effective. Because, we do not know how the situation above and what are the guard soldiers around there. It could be that the warriors from the Fire Bull Kingdom will ambush us once we get out of that underground road.”

“Do you think I'm as stupid as you are to make a plan out of whack. Just so you know before I make this plan, I've already ordered some spies around the exit of that secret passageway and made sure that no one approaches that place within a one kilometer radius. So, there would be no warriors from the Fire Bull Kingdom around that place.”

“That's just according to your theory. It could be that the place was already known to the spies from the Fire Bull Kingdom and they were all hiding in a place that could not be reached by the spies you ordered to guard the place because of them know that place better than the spy you sent.”

“Whatever you're talking about. Anyway we have to go there Fire Bull Kingdom using my strategy because I also have to ensure your safety.”

“I absolutely do not need protection from a woman. I will still enter the Fire Bull Kingdom through the path in disguise so that I can get some important information that can help me to defeat the Fire Bull King.”

The debate between Heilong and Princess Mao Shizi grew increasingly bitter as no one wanted to budge between them.

The Golden Feather Lion King finally came to talk before a meaningless quarrel broke out between them.

“Actually tomorrow is the time to send tributes to the Fire Bull Kingdom. And the tributary's introduction was free to enter the territory of the Fire Bull Kingdom without having to go undercover because they would bring a special medal given by the Fire Bull King.”

“Upet?! Has the Golden Feather Lion Kingdom been colonized by the Fire Bull Kingdom?” tanya Heilong settled sharply towards the Golden Feather Lion King.

“Not colonized but this is the deal I have made with the Fire Bull King for him to attack the residents living around the border region. After all, the tribute was in the form of vegetables and fruits that we had never consumed because the inhabitants of the Golden Feather Lion Kingdom were all meat eaters,” replied the Golden Feather Lion King.

“Then why do you want to attack the Fire Bull Kingdom if you have made a deal. Do you want to break that deal? If that's the case, then I don't want to help you,” Heilong said a little furious because he felt he had been deceived.

“We never break the deal and always send the tributes they request on a regular and on time basis. But, the amount of tribute they asked for became more and more and more and more difficult for our people to fulfill it because they did not pay a penny from the excess vegetables they asked for. While we need a large enough cost to care for vegetables and fruits that can be harvested.”

Princess Mao Shizi immediately replied to Heilong's words with a tone of annoyance because his anger since the first debate had not subsided, but Heilong had made him upset again with his words that doubted his father.

“If so, it means that the Fire Bull King deserves to be taught a lesson. The damned bull turned out to be extremely greedy and had no sense of mercy. Did he not know that it takes fertilizer with very good quality so that all vegetables and fruits can thrive? And the price of fertilizer is certainly not cheap,” Heilong said by clenching both hands.

“He should have known better than us because before becoming a King, the Fire Bull King was a farmer in the Red Land region,” replied the Golden Feather Lion King.

The Golden Feather Lion King directly pointed at the map with his right hand and showed Heilong the route the tributary would take. And it turned out, the road they had to cross was a special road that directly led to the kitchen of the Fire Bull Royal Palace.

“Truly very good. With the ability I have, I can make a special meal for the Fire Bull King before I fight against him,” Heilong grinned, it seemed that in his mind had already devised a devious plan to defeat the Fire Bull King easily.

“Then it was decided that we would enter the Fire Bull Kingdom using the plan my father had. I will return to my room now because I have to prepare the clothes I will use to disguise tomorrow.”

Princess Mao Shizi immediately left the room because she was actually still very upset with Heilong.

After Princess Mao Shizi left this room, Heilong immediately asked the Golden Feather Lion King. “Do you allow your Princess to come with me to the Fire Bull Kingdom? Because, the face that your Princess has is too beautiful and can attract attention.”

“My daughter is used to disguises. You won't even be able to recognize his face after he uses the disguise ability he has. If you don't believe it, you can see for yourself tomorrow.”

The Golden Feather Lion King immediately called a servant and asked him to escort Heilong towards his room to go rest.

The morning has arrived.

Some of the Palace chefs had already prepared some vegetables and fruits that would be sent to the Fire Bull Kingdom. All vegetables and fruits that they will send are the best quality crops. Because, the Fire Bull King will impose a penalty in the form of fines if there are some vegetables and fruits that are damaged. The damage occurred during the trip.

Heilong was there, too, helping the head chef who inspected all the vegetables and fruits before being put in a huge wooden cart and pulled by ten lions.

“How many more fruits should I check?” heilong asked the head chef.

“Nothing. All the fruits and vegetables that we will send you have checked everything,” replied the head chef.

“Then we can leave now,” said a woman.

Suddenly there was a female servant who walked up to Heilong and the head chef.

Heilong had never seen this female servant before, whereas all the servants should have been in this place once the sun rose.
