<h4>Chapter 197: Azure Sky Kingdom Finds out about the Secret Realm~</h4>


    "What!? A secret realm appeared in the Heavenly Sky Kingdom!?" A loud voice echoed out from the Azure Sky Kingdom''s throne room as the nearby guards began shaking in fear. Afraid that even breathing too loudly would get them killed.


    At this moment, a certain messenger was shaking in fear as he was kneeling down in front of a giant throne .


    He had just finished delivering the news of a secret realm appearing inside of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom before the person on top of the throne began erupting in anger as he cursed at the Heavenly Sky Kingdom.


    Originally, the messenger had thought that he and his group could rx after returning to the capital... But he had been wrong.


    Over the past week, the messenger had worked overtime together with his small group of subordinates. Travelling all over the vast Azure Sky Kingdom and trying their best to deliver the news of the secret realm''s appearance inside of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom''s territory.


    From the newly conquered territories to the capital at the centre of the Azure Sky Kingdom. The messenger had travelled all over the ce as only he was left toe and inform the ruler by himself.


    The reason why the messenger and his group had ended up being used for once outside of themunication talismans to deliver news, outside of what the current ruler in front of him ordered him to do from time to time, was the fact that the opening of the secret realm had rendered the normalmunication talismans from the Explorer Union useless.


    This was of course not to say that allmunication talismans in the nearby kingdoms were rendered useless after the secret realm opened, as the Explorer Union had higher quality for sale as well, that could be used over a longer distance as well.


    Though this was not cheap like the normalmunication talismans bought from the explorer union, resulting in the only buyer of these being the more powerful kingdoms or sects.


    "What should we do now? If we continue the offensive on the Heavenly Sky Kingdom, we might risk offending someone powerful… But if we don''tunch an attack on the Heavenly Sky Kingdom soon, they will have fortified their defensive position enough to resist our attack! ARGH! Why did a secret realm have to appear now!?" Screaming loudly as he thought about the secret realm that had just appeared, the current rule of the Azure Sky Kingdom felt that he was stuck between a rock and a hard ce. No real way for him to get out without losing anything…


    "Your majesty! Someone hase seeking an audience with you!" Just as the person sitting on the throne was about to throw yet another fit out of rage, a voice echoed out from the entrance as one of the guards walked into the throne room, a person wearing a pitch-ck robe with his face covered by a hood attached to the robe entering behind the guard.


    "Hm? You are?" Narrowing his eyes upon seeing the new person entering, the person on the throne seemed to have calmed down as a few seconds passed.


    "I see, so that is how it is… Everyone is dismissed! Leave " Nodding his head with a serious look stered onto his face, the ruler of the Azure Sky Kingdom told everyone to leave as the messenger nced back at the hooded person on his way out of the throne room.


    The person waspletely covered outside of his hands that were clearly male from what the messenger could see.


    Other than that, there was nothing recognizable on the figure hidden beneath the pitch-ck robe.


    What is his majesty up to this time…?


    Feeling a profound sense of uneasiness welling up inside of him, the messenger felt that something regarding the fate of the Azure Sky Kingdom was about to take ce… And it would not be resulting in something good for him or the rest of the people under him…


    This was just a gut feeling that the messenger had, but he was sure something that would shake the entire Azure Sky Kingdom was about to take ce inside the throne room…


    "Maybe I should try and gather those kids and try to go somewhere around the border to escape the iing storm…" Muttering this to himself as he made his way over to a small resting room located inside of the main pce of the Azure Sky Kingdom''s Royal Family, the messenger sat down and thought about what to do before finally standing up and making his way out of the pce towards the small office that the messengers still had left in the Royal Capital.


    No matter what, he would ensure that his people would be able to survive the iing storm and staying in the capital would most likely end up involving them in the uing storm that was about to sweep through the Azure Sky Kingdom.


    The messenger did not just decide on this because he had seen a personpletely hidden about to have secret conversation with the current ruler and king of the Azure Sky Kingdom, but because the situation with the gue had gotten even more out of control over the past few months.


    If not for a mysterious group of priests showing up to help the poption, the messenger doubted that the people would have wanted to stay any longer.


    There was even a chance that they might have started a mass exodus in the Azure Sky Kingdom as they would try to enter the nearby kingdoms in hope of finding aid…


    ...


    The Azure Sky Kingdom was not the only kingdom close to the Heavenly Sky Kingdom that reacted as all of the nearby kingdoms lost their ability tomunicate with each other and soon found out about the secret realm that had appeared inside of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom''s territory.


    By this point, all of the Nascent Soul Realm Experts in the nearby kingdoms began to grow restless as they all knew what the appearance of a secret realm represented! A chance to reach the Domain Lord Realm!


    All they had to do, was find a chance to gain ess to the secret realm...
