I alone am the Invincible One!
Chapter 224: Name
Ultimately, things did not go as she wished. She had not expected Wang Yufan’s strength to be so terrifying. As the King of North Ridge, very few people had come directly to her from the outside world in the past hundred years; most had gone to the other Kings. This was why, despite having a sufficiently large territory, she did not have enough subordinates.
However, none of that mattered anymore. Her priority now was to quickly inform their Divine Emperor Realm Emperor about this matter.
The Red-robed Woman’s figure flickered and she disappeared from the room, reappearing a moment later in a massive city spanning a hundred li. The constant flow of people here was endless. Compared to her previous state, she was like a bumpkin from the countryside, primarily because North Ridge was too remote.
The red-skirted woman glanced around, her figure flickering before she vanished again. She reappeared in front of a palace adorned with dragon carvings and phoenix paintings.
"Who goes there?" several soldiers in red armor, whose strength had also reached the God King Realm early stage, shouted.
Upon seeing that the person was the Red-robed Woman, the middle-aged man in golden armor, who was the leader, said:
"It’s Lord Red Wang. May I ask why you are here? If you are looking for the Emperor, then forget it. The Emperor is currently in seclusion and is not seeing anyone. You should return."
Hearing this, the Red-robed Woman asked in confusion:
"Didn’t I hear that the Emperor had just come out of seclusion? Why is he in seclusion again?"
"We don’t know either. This is the Emperor’s decree, and we cannot disobey it," the golden-armored man said.
"Alright, if the Emperor comes out of seclusion, please give him this letter. This matter is not small," the Red-robed Woman said before flashing away.
However, what the Red-robed Woman did not know was that shortly after she left, the person who had just spoken took the letter and went to their Emperor’s place of seclusion.
"They’re here. Who is it this time?" an ancient voice echoed from inside the cave.
"Reporting to Flame Emperor, the person who just arrived was Lord Red Wang of North Ridge," the middle-aged golden-armored man said.
"Oh, it’s Hong. What is she doing here? Did you tell her that I’m not seeing anyone lately?" Flame Emperor asked.
"Reporting to Flame Emperor, I told her as you instructed earlier. Lord Red Wang asked me to give you this letter," the golden-armored man said, handing the Red-robed Woman’s letter to Flame Emperor.
"Hmm, alright," Flame Emperor then took the letter.
The golden-armored man had initially thought it was an ordinary letter, but to his surprise, Flame Emperor let out a surprised sound less than three breaths after taking it.
"Ao Wu, go to North Ridge and find this person to ascertain his true strength. If it’s truly as Hong says, then bring him to see me," Flame Emperor’s voice came from the place of seclusion, along with the opened letter.
The golden-armored man named Ao Wu took the letter, glanced at it, and was shocked by its contents.
"What? An outsider’s strength might very well reach the God Emperor Realm, and he’s only a young man of twenty or thirty years old? How is this possible? If such talent comes from the outside world, then he must belong to a super sect’s disciple!" the golden-armored man muttered after reading it.
"Hmm, you’re not wrong, but you must know that once someone comes to our Yan Realm, no matter how good their talent, unless their strength reaches the Divine Emperor Realm, they will always remain here. However, I fear this person might be from a higher-level plane. If his master or father is a Divine Emperor, then they would certainly have the strength to come here. If he gets injured here, our Yan Realm might face a great disaster.
That’s why I’m sending you to verify if it’s true, after all, Hong’s area hasn’t seen outsiders for a long time, unlike the territories of the other few, where outsiders often arrive."
Flame Emperor’s voice drifted out from his place of seclusion.
Hearing Flame Emperor’s words, Ao Wu respectfully accepted the command, then his figure vanished, heading towards North Ridge.
A pair of deep eyes watched the red sky from the darkness.
"If this is true, I have a premonition that this young man truly has the potential to overturn our Yan Realm. However, Hong mentioned that this young man has something to see me about, and I wonder what it is."
Flame Emperor murmured to himself.
Inside North Ridge’s Red Wang Palace. Having just returned from Flame Emperor’s place, she felt a bit annoyed again. Today, it seemed like nothing was going smoothly.
"A’Da, has that kid been settled?" the Red-robed Woman asked A’Da below her.
"Red Wang, everything has been arranged. A’Er and I prepared some food for him, and we’ve let him temporarily stay in one of our better rooms for the night," A’Da replied.
"Hmm, good. You may leave then."
Upon hearing the Red-robed Woman’s words, A’Da immediately withdrew, and the Red-robed Woman also vanished from her spot.
The next moment, she appeared near Wang Yufan’s residence. As the Red-robed Woman reached the door of Wang Yufan’s room, she heard Wang Yufan’s lewd voice.
"You’re here, little sister. Come in."
The Red-robed Woman, disregarding her dignity, kicked open the door.
"Hmph, you truly are shameless," the Red-robed Woman said.
"Oh? How am I shameless? Look, it’s already dark, and you’re still coming to my place. Are you trying to do something to me? Are you planning to drug me and then do some unspeakable secrets? But you don’t need to. If you want to, you can tell me in advance, and I’ll reluctantly cooperate a bit," Wang Yufan said lewdly.
Hearing Wang Yufan’s words, the Red-robed Woman became even more furious. She had intended to tease Wang Yufan earlier, but now she was being teased in return. It truly was a turn of the tables.
"You still haven’t told me your name. Since you’re going to see our Emperor, I at least need to know what you’re called."
"Oh, I almost forgot. What about you? You’re wearing a red robe, so are you called Honghong?" Just as Wang Yufan finished speaking.
The Red-robed Woman loudly said:
"You can call me anything, but you absolutely cannot call me Honghong. My name is Feng Hong. Now, can you tell me your name?"
Hearing Feng Hong’s words, Wang Yufan nodded and said:
"Feng Hong, that name isn’t very pleasant. But never mind, don’t be too self-deprecating. As for me, you can just call me Brother Yufan."
Hearing the first half of Wang Yufan’s sentence, Feng Hong only felt that Wang Yufan seemed to have a serious illness. Who would dare to say whether her name was pleasant or not? She would never let them off. Now, except for Wang Yufan.
"Brother Yufan? Are you sure your name isn’t the last word?" Feng Hong asked in confusion.
Wang Yufan affirmed, "My name is Brother Yufan. Don’t believe me then."
