Dragon Martial Sovereign-Chapter 1035 - 1034: I Will Make You Regret This!

Many people stood without advising the Shuntian King.

Although, in their hearts, they felt that the current actions of the Shuntian King were inappropriate, they knew the king's temper. Coupled with his current foul mood, naturally, no one dared to stand up and advise him.

However, saying that no one dared to stand up is not absolute.

For instance, after a slight pause, a curly-haired middle-aged man stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. This old minister has something to say!"

This curly-haired middle-aged man held a very high status with the Shuntian King. It could be said that he was the king's most favored advisor, and people called him National Master Kangsheng!

Before the Shuntian King ascended to the throne, he was an advisor to the prince, and it is no exaggeration to say that National Master Kangsheng played a crucial role in the king's ultimate ascendancy.

Therefore...

While others didn't dare to advise the Shuntian King, National Master Kangsheng dared!

Because, as long as National Master Kangsheng didn't commit an act of great betrayal, the king wouldn't lay hands on him.

Sure enough, after listening to National Master Kangsheng, the Shuntian King's previously furious expression softened somewhat. He asked the National Master, "State Preceptor, what do you have to say?"

National Master Kangsheng said, "Your Majesty, this old minister believes now is not the time for killing!"

"Hmm?"

The Shuntian King furrowed his brows once again and said, "But State Preceptor, that Lin Fan dared to offend my dignity in such a manner. So, if I don't kill him, I won't be able to justify it in my heart. Besides, if I don't kill him this time, others will offend me this way in the future. Killing Lin Fan this time is meant as a deterrence. I want the whole world to know that anyone who opposes me will meet a bad end!"

The more the Shuntian King spoke, the angrier he became.

If the person in front of him weren't National Master Kangsheng, he might have already erupted in rage.

"Haha!"

However, National Master Kangsheng still appeared nonchalant, chuckling lightly before continuing, "Your Majesty, I fully understand your anger, but I still maintain my stance. I truly believe that now is not the time to kill Lin Fan."

The Shuntian King said more displeasedly, "Then tell me what I should do? Are we just to let Lin Fan go like this? But I can't..."

National Master Kangsheng shook his head and said, "Simply letting Lin Fan go is impossible, but for now, the timing isn't right!"

"Then tell me, when will the timing be right?" The Shuntian King appeared somewhat impatient.

"This…" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

National Master Kangsheng hesitated and said, "I really haven't figured that out yet. But, Your Majesty, please rest assured and grant this old minister one night. By tomorrow morning, I will certainly give Your Majesty a satisfactory answer!"

The Shuntian King didn't immediately respond but slightly furrowed his brows, appearing to ponder.

After a moment, the Shuntian King nodded and said, "Alright, then I will give you one night. Remember, I only give you one night. If you have not found an answer that satisfies me by tomorrow morning, then I will have no choice but to kill!"

"Alright!"

National Master Kangsheng replied.

The Shuntian King said, "Alright, if you have no other matters, then all of you may retire..."

Before the Shuntian King finished speaking, a young man stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I do have a suggestion, though I'm not sure if I should say it!"

This person is a newcomer to the Shuntian King.

He had only recently joined the court, named Wang Tianliang.

Seeing Wang Tianliang step forward, National Master Kangsheng's brows furrowed slightly. Clearly, National Master Kangsheng didn't like others speaking out at such a moment.

In the past, many didn't speak, not just because they feared the Shuntian King, but also because they feared National Master Kangsheng. Generally, if someone overshadowed National Master Kangsheng, he would be very displeased, and if that happened, things would not end well for that person.

Everyone knew that National Master Kangsheng's power was at its peak, so naturally, they didn't dare to offend him.

But now…

This Wang Tianliang actually dared to stand out?

This not only overshadowed National Master Kangsheng but could even be considered a direct affront.

Many directed their gaze towards Wang Tianliang.

In their hearts, they thought, "This guy is still too young. In such a situation, to dare overshadow National Master Kangsheng, isn't this a death wish?"

Some others thought, "This guy isn't just courting death; he's bound to die a most miserable death!"

In such a situation, someone stepping forward to speak surprised the Shuntian King.

The Shuntian King looked at Wang Tianliang and said with a smile, "Dear subject, if you have something to say, just say it..."

In fact, the Shuntian King was also quite curious about what Wang Tianliang intended to say under such circumstances.

National Master Kangsheng also looked over at Wang Tianliang, coldly saying, "I advise you not to speak any worthless nonsense. I warn you now, if what you say is of no value, I will have your tongue cut off, and you'll never have the chance to speak again in your life!"

The warning in National Master Kangsheng's words was very strong.

Upon hearing this warning, others felt even more sympathetic towards Wang Tianliang, knowing that National Master Kangsheng was already very angry.

However…

Wang Tianliang remained calm, as if he hadn't heard the warning, and simply said to the Shuntian King, "Your Majesty, my strategy is actually quite simple. We just need to 'lure the snake out of the hole.' By doing this, I refuse to believe that Lin Fan won't take the bait. In doing so, we can set up a 'Heaven and Earth Net' and wait for Lin Fan to willingly step into it!"

Hearing Wang Tianliang's words, the Shuntian King burst into laughter.

It was clear that at this moment, the Shuntian King's mood was very pleasant.

"Good, good, let's proceed according to your plan!"

The Shuntian King said with delight, "By the way, State Preceptor, the subsequent arrangements will be left to you. I hope you can do this well!"

National Master Kangsheng said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Although National Master Kangsheng agreed, he was deeply angered, and the look in his eyes as he glanced at Wang Tianliang was filled with hatred.

National Master Kangsheng thought to himself, "Hmm, dares to overshadow me in such a situation? Just wait, I'll make you regret this soon enough!"

To be honest, if it were possible, the Shuntian King would want to immediately eliminate Wang Tianliang.
