Lord of the Truth

Chapter 400 Peaceful Threat

*Gulp*

Forty thousand soldiers, The weakest of whom is a Knight level cultivator or a Warrior who has a tattoo of the first grade, standing on the other side a group of individuals not more than a hundred and most of them are elderly and some of them even can not breathe well because of their obesity...

However, there was not a single one of the forty thousand soldiers stood his ground!

All of them were either swallowing their saliva or trembling involuntarily.

Not because those hundred individuals are too powerful in their eyes, but because of what they represent, because of the person who built that Space Portal and sent them...

Those 100 are followers of the Lord, the same Lord who forsook them...

And what makes the situation worse is that according to His Excellencyʼs threat, they canʼt harm anyone who comes out of that Space Portal, at least if they donʼt attack them first!

Not knowing whether to attack, block them, or just make way, everyone stood in their positions without moving... they only shot Amon a glance every now and then.

”Put down your weapons you idiots, does that little group look like invaders to you? Whatʼs the point of feeding you if you are just going to get us in trouble?!” Suddenly a loud voice came in, the heavy silence was broken

The captain of the guards raised his face to look in the direction of the voice and a big smile appeared on his face, then shouted, ”Ah! The elders have come!”

”Pheu~ Finally”

”Lower your weapons and step back!”

Even Amon looked at the few people flying towards him, but with obvious indignation and disdain, ”Hmph, Orzon...”

Orzon and nine other individuals landed in front of him one after the other with surprised looks and furrowed eyebrows, fixing their gaze on the people standing behind Amon, their frail figures and physiques...

ʼthose people of the same race as Lord Robin!ʼ That was the first thought that came to everyoneʼs mind

Then Orzon finally turned back to look at Amon, ”Whatʼs going on here?”

”Shouldnʼt I ask this question?” Amon raised his hands and pointed towards the army standing around him, ”Is this how you respect the orders of your Lord?!”

”Oh, those? His Excellency said that all our efforts and our army should be used to defend the Space Portal, you were there and heard him say that loud and clear, right? So we moved the army headquarters here to help defend the Space Portal more efficiently.” Orzon replied with a smile

”Tsk, whatever~ I wonʼt get any use out of talking to you, old fox,” Amon spat on the ground and then pointed behind him, ”These are members from the Lordʼs family, they came here at his wishes to start a trade with the Nihari Union Sect.”

”Hmm? Trade?” Orzon and the rest of the elders turned to look at the elders of the Bortun family again, ”Then you are the lordʼs kin, we humbly welcome you to the land that His Excellency established!”

”The land that His Excellency founded? Woah!”

”His Excellency? Do they mean Robin? Thatʼs awesome!!”

Most if not all of Juraʼs world, including the Burton family itself, did not fully believe that Robin is a significant leadership figure in another world, especially since he has only been absent for twenty years.

This does not diminish him, especially since he brought with him this huge army that declared their loyalty to him more than once, but the closest to reality in the eyes of everyone is that Robin became one of the trusted followers of a great boss or something like that...

But Orzonʼs words now...

”Oh, greeting, Mr. Orzon, according to what we heard from Mr. Jabba and Mr. Amon about what you have here, we have prepared a lot of goods and raw materials that you lack, I assure you, we will be worth every penny of the ten million!” One of the elders of the Burton family, somewhat plump and still in the realm of chivalry, was one of those enslaved at the storming of Eura, but he soon rose to become one of the mainstays of the family because of his great shrewdness in matters of trade.

”Oh, they can speak our language too? This will make it easier and-- wait a moment, TEN WHAT!?” One of the Sect elders behind Orzon rose up and shouted

Amon quickly looked at that Elder, ”What? Your old age affected your damn ears you old fart? he said Ten Million Energy Pearls, will be the value of the trade between the Burton family and the Nihari Union Sect, and the exchange will be fully completed within one week as well. Do you have a problem with that?!”

”Amon, you bastard, donʼt you really know the value of that--” That old man started moving a few steps towards Amon while shouting

But Orzonʼs hand interrupted his path, and said with a much lower voice, ”Amon, We appreciate His Excellencyʼs trust in us and his desire to start a business with us, especially a business of this size, we really do! But as you know this is not a small amount of wealth and we currently have a lot of expenses, we may not be able to collect it quickly enough to be completed in this exchange alone, but we may be able to collect 250 thousand energy pearls for now, we will reach that 10 Million figure with time, just not in a week, how about that?”

Amon turned back to look in Orzonʼs direction, ”Listen here old fox, the Lord NEEDS those energy pearls as soon as possible, if you donʼt agree then--”

One of the other sect elders rushed in and started shouting as well, ”Then what? You will wage war against us? Damn it, ten million energy pearls in a week? Does he think heʼs still the Sect Leader? Or does he think we are afraid of him?”

*Gulp*

The soldiers around the Space Portal began to tighten their fists on their weapons again, after they all sighed in relief at hearing Amonʼs words about trade, this conversation returned to take the worst possible course!

But in the face of the shouting, Amon gave a satisfied smile that showed his long sharp fangs, then he spoke quietly, ”Who said anything about waging a war? If you do not have enough energy pearls, we will go to complete our trade with the southern region.”

”Is that a threat?! Who do you think we are, you son of a--!!!” The same elder who shouted earlier raised his hands a little and was ready to lower them ordering the advance of the troops to attack Amon and those with him.

In fact, selling weapons to the southern region of the planet is the worst possible threat, which means that Robin will begin to control that region as he did with them!

Or worse... He provides them with new types of weapons and talismans of his innovation in exchange for energy pearls only without controlling them.

This means the presence of a formidable enemy on their borders in the south with a lot of new weapons that need to be tested in battles, the northern region is already a nightmare enough, they can have another threat from the south as well!

Except for that elder, finally, everyone realized that Robin really didnʼt really need to invade them himself in order to harm them...

”Silaf, shut your mouth, you stupid bastard!!”

*boom!*

Before that old man lowered his hand, Orzon looked behind him and broke his nose with a punch, blood spurted everywhere.
