Within Asahi Royal Palace's grand hall, ten thousand rays of rosy light shone forth. A phantom figure stood before the throne, mist swirling around him, his true appearance impossible to discern.
The King of Asahi was a renowned powerhouse whose name shook the world. Even in the Primeval Demonic Realm, where powerful experts emerged in endless streams, no one dared lightly test his edge.
Inside the royal hall, a black-clad man knelt on one knee, respectfully delivering his report.
"Did you find anything?" the King of Asahi asked from before the throne.
"Reporting to my king, there is no news at all. This person seems to have appeared out of thin air. No one knows him," the black-clad man answered.
"Oh?"
Within the rosy light, the King of Asahi gave a soft sound of surprise. "Even you could not find the slightest trace. That makes this man's identity all the more suspicious."
"My king, this man saved the young lord's life. We can use that as an excuse to invite him to the palace. With Your Majesty's cultivation, you should be able to see some traces."
"I already sent Xuyao to invite him. However, using the excuse that Miss Xia Zhi needed someone to care for her, that boy temporarily postponed the time of his entry into the palace," the King of Asahi said indifferently.
The black-clad man narrowed his eyes. "It seems this man is extremely cautious and highly vigilant."
"Mhm."
The King of Asahi nodded and said calmly, "No hurry. So long as he remains in the royal city, he is under my control. Continue watching him. The moment there is the slightest rustle of wind or movement of grass, return and report at once."
"Yes."
The black-clad man respectfully accepted the order. Then his figure faded away
