Chapter 153: A confrontation!
"Hm..." A sweet mutter left a woman's lips as she placed the teacup on the table, a hint of amusement dancing in her cold blonde eyes as she gazed at the old man sitting opposite him on the table.
The Ombudsman sighed heavily, "He is really powerful despite his age and cultivation, Lady Hua. He beat me like that not even seeing that I am an old man."
Yu Hua chuckled in her heart and spoke in a calm tone "The last time, I saw him... I was sure he was in the 6th level of Emperor Astral Stage, how did he beat you?"
"Has your bones gone so old that cultivators a whole stage below you are beating you now?"
The Ombudsman could only smile dryly "He has terrific combat prowess and has affinity over two powerful elements, fire, and ice."
Yu Hua slightly frowned her eyebrows 'That guy never told me about these things. I went to him to warn about the Stormweaver Sect's revenge.'
'But he has beaten Ombudsman provoking the government and has beaten Orlando Williams provoking Lycan Syndicate. He was also about to kill a minister, almost creating a world war.'
She again took a sip of the tea 'And he also had a black sword which is above Heaven grade. I am sure it's not Epic or Mythic grade... Is that Ethereal grade?'
'Sister Freya had an Ethereal-grade weapon. His weapon must be from the Ancient Ruins, there is no way he has a connection with people from the High Stars.'
Her lips twitched in frustration 'And because of this guy, Now I am here without my disguise and I have to confront those bastards later.' she muttered in her mind glancing at the ring on her finger.
The Ombudsman who was sitting spoke in an apologetic tone "I am sorry, Lady Hua. I know I can't speak alone with those guys... so I called you."
"I am very grateful that you came for me and this Government's aid." he stood up from his chair, bowing his head.
Yu Hua just took another sip of her tea "It's not your fault in the first place. It's because of Tian and I only came because his name was added to this problem. I don't really care about you or this government."
The Ombudsman smiled wryly looking at the woman in her armor. *knock* *knock* At this time, a knock was heard on the room's door.
"What happened?" The Ombudsman asked.
"The representatives from the West Nation and minister of Williams Royal family have arrived, Lord Ombudsman."
"I will be there." The ombudsman replied and glanced at Yu Hua. Yu Hua gave a nod and stood up from her seat.
...
*tap* *tap* As Yu Hua made her way down the hallway, the Ombudsman walked behind her like her servant. The sight caused quite a stir among the higher government officials who happened to be passing by, their jaws dropping in disbelief seeing their Lord Ombudsman humbly walking behind a woman.
They soon arrived in front of a door, and a government official wearing a black suit opened the door for her.
As she entered her eyes glanced at the five people who were on ones side of the conference table. One of them is the Minister from the Williams Royal family and the others are representatives from West Nations.
There are even more people on the other side, the nation's President, the other higher officials in the government, and the military officials.
As Yu Hua and the Ombudsman entered, the officials from this nation's government stood up while the people from West Nations had a frown on their faces.
The president smiled and bowed his head respectfully.
Yu Hua gave a nod and took her seat. The Ombudsman also took his seat beside the President as they all settled down.
Jack Daniel who was the minister of the Williams Royal Family spoke first "So, Mr.President, what are you gonna say to this?"
"Our Prince, Orlando Williams came to your Nation for vacation. Our Young Lord didn't cause any commotion and was simply enjoying his time in the resort he bought."
"But this guy..." Jack Daniel spoke as he took a picture of a handsome white-haired young man with blue eyes.
Hm? Yu Hua squinted her eyes, how did they get his picture? Wait, it's not a picture. It's a drawing. Seems like they drew Zhao Tian with the help of Orlando Williams describing the facial features.
"He barged into the resort disturbing our Young Lord's peaceful moment. He killed some of our guards."
"He injured our Young Lord and almost killed our Minister. So, Mr. President... are you provoking us for a war?"
Huh? The President and the other officials were startled to hear this. The President spoke "War? We never intended to have war with the Western nations in the first place."
"Waging a war just because a citizen of ours provoked your Prince is not fair at all." Another one voiced.
Jack Daniel spoke, "He did not just provoke, he killed our people."
At this time, the Ombudsman spoke, "Don't forget you are the one who created the mess first by transporting your serum through our Nation. And because of that, a lot of destruction happened and the existence of cultivators was almost discovered by normal people."
(A/n: I almost wrote serum as semen here, lmao)
Jack Daniel smirked "It is true that we are the ones who transported the serum via this nation, but the one who stole it and created chaos is from your country. So we can't do anything about it."
The Ombudsman's heart fumed with anger "But you deliberately didn't put any protection around your vehicle and baited Hun Chen to steal them."
Jack Daniel replied keeping his smirk "We deliberately didn't put any protection because we thought putting high protection would attract attention and we simply transported it through semi-truck."
"But this Hun Chen from your nation somehow found that and stole it."
The Ombudsman narrowed his eyes in anger but he couldn't do anything here. Meanwhile, Yu Hua just sat there silently with a stoic face listening to the yappings.
Looking at all the officials being silent, Jack Daniel spoke "So here we bring or proposition. How about this?"
"You hand over that cultivator from your country to us and we won't wage war on this nation."
