The Necromancer: Chapter 4

/*unedited*/

When Lubo Xilong heard this name his brow knitted, but didn\'t move. Then he heard another voice coming from the door.

"Mayor, I think the reinforcement from the city of Wu has arrived."

When Lubo Xilong heard this, he immediately jumps up. Though he is not clear yet, however, when he heard the words reinforcements, his mind suddenly ran wild as a ray of hope quickly shone in his eyes. Now that the reinforcement is here there might be a chance for him to save his son who has been captured by the fiends. When he receives the report about his son being "captured" not eat, he thought that his son would surely have died at that instant. But now that he has a ray of hope, he then recalls the report and wishes nothing else but to save his only son.

Lubo Xilong immediately stood up and walk out of his room in a quick pace stunning the two servants currently waiting outside. He didn\'t even bother to look at them and just move towards the hall of his house to receive his honored guests.

Upon arriving he saw 5 people from which he recognizes two of them. With a disbelieving eye, he stood rooted on the ground almost dumbfounded.

The people in front of him is composed of two fat young men, a beautiful woman with a noble aura, a handsome young man who is looking at the woman lovingly, and a middle-aged man wearing a black cloak. Lubo Xilong clearly knows the young lady and the man in a black cloak. These two people made him break out in cold sweat upon thinking about their prestigious backgrounds.

But he quickly calms himself down and greeted the five people.

"Honored guests from the Wu Kingdom, welcome to our humble town!" Lubo Xilong said as he cupped his hands in greetings.

The five people just turn their gaze unto him and nod their heads in reply. Then one of them, the middle-aged man in black cloak step forward.

"Long time no see, mayor. It seems that your little town here has faced a great foe." The man said calmly.

His countenance is not overbearing but rather humble even. But the aura exuding within his body is clearly that of a middle stage infant soul realm cultivator. The man is clearly a powerful expert but his mild attitude is worthy of respect.

When Lubo Xilong heard this, he felt calm. He himself is a powerful cultivator at the peak stage of the gold core realm, but against an infant soul realm that is a tiered step higher in cultivation, he is just some nobody. So in reply, he humbly smiles and bowed respectfully.

"Thank you, Master Ang. We truly faced a great hurdle this time… it\'s a very strong necromancer." He said in a low-tone.

"Yeah we know, we already encountered some of them on the way here. Those things are nothing though, just slowpokes and easy targets." a pudgy but muscled young man suddenly spoke.

"Yeah… We also took down some of those undead cultivators lurking within their ranks easily. I didn\'t know why you cannot defeat them? I didn\'t think that this town is that weak." The other one jeered.

Upon hearing their words, Lubo Xilong\'s heart turned frosty. If they were not his steamed guest he would have chopped the two pigs down and feed them to the beasts. But he reigned on his temper and smiled bitterly.

"We truly are weak as we cannot even defeat those things. That\'s why we really needed your help fellow brothers and sisters. With your strong help, I know that we can defeat this terrible being. Plus I have offered a great remuneration to the king…" Lubo Xilong said after calming down.

But he didn\'t finish his words when the young woman suddenly lifted her hand which stopped him from continuing.

"That was my father and you. We are not the same, how would you compensate our efforts then?" the young woman said turning her piercing gaze towards Lubo Xilong.

Caught off guard he was not able to think of anything as a response.

"This… I… I didn\'t…"

"You didn\'t what? Expect us to ask for something?" the young woman said with a domineering tone.

"We are going to lay our lives on the line here. Are you just going to say thank you? Show us your sincerity mayor or else we are out of here." She added.

With his long experience in scheming, Lubo Xilong immediately knows what to do so after gaining his calm, he smiled towards the young woman.

"Alright, since this would be a business deal, I will offer each of you something from my collection." Lubo Xilong said with a clenched fist under his long robe.

He had to sacrifice something this time just for his son.

"I will show you some of my treasured collection. You can choose 5 items as your compensation." He said as he gestured for them to follow him.

The group walks towards a couple of stairways and secret passages until they arrive in front of a metal door. Each step they took at that time is like lacerating wounds which slowly made Lubo Xilong heart bleed. But right now he has no choice but to be under his guesses bidding.

He took out a special key from his storage space and inserted it to unlock the door. Then suddenly the door opens a portal making everybody in showed a shocked expression.

"This is not a normal storage stool; this is a special storage space. Come now follow me." Lubo Xilong said as he enters the portal gate.

 When the rest of the people followed the gate immediately closes behind them. Then everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the small room in front of their eyes, a small room which is full of treasures.

In that small room, many spiritual weapons, herbs, cores, and even skill books are pilled neatly everywhere.

Seeing the dumbfounded look on the faces of his guests, Lubo Xilong\'s expression turned calm. Then he looks at them and spoke.

"You have an hour to choose 1 item to your liking. Just go through this door after making your choice." He said as he turns around and left.

Before anyone could react and recover their thoughts, his figure has already left the room. And so the five people immediately began to rummage through the things inside the room with their spiritual senses.

"Young lady, this sword…" the man in the black cloak said as he walks towards a corner and grabs something wrapped in brown cloth.

"I know, I guess that\'s the reason why my father sent me here." The young woman said as she walks towards the man and takes the sword out of his hand.

She then carefully hugs the sword like it was the most precious thing in the world. When she did this the young man beside her, knitted his brows and became curious about the sword. But when he scanned the sword, his complexion turned respectful. His eyes even have signs of beads of tears forming.

The young woman is one of the daughters of the king of Wu, Princess Xinge Lee. When she was 5 years old she met a master which was introduced to him by his father. Along with two others, her master taught her martial techniques and fighting styles which made her became a formidable cultivator. Then one day when she turned 13, her master left on a journey and never came back.

As she has greatly respected her master and treated him like his own father, her heart was broken.

And now right in front of her eyes, she is currently looking at her master\'s beloved sword. Her eyes suddenly turned blurry as tears welled up in them. Like broken beads of pearl, they slid down her pinkish-white cheeks and landed on the cloth wrapping the sword.

She could not help it as memories of those happy days she had with her master resurface in her mind.

"Master, I made it now. I perfected your sword style, you can be at ease now," she muttered.

She already knows that her master had died in a battle. But what irks her the most is the news that her master\'s opponent stole his sword. And from then on never saw it again until today.

The young man beside her is also feeling the same. He is Max Wo, a son of a rich noble from the Wu kingdom. He is a fellow disciple of the princess and shared the same affection with their master. Although his attainment with the sword technique is not as high as Xinge Lee, his flame Qi, on the other hand, is superb like no other.

And right now, he too felt happy after finding their master\'s beloved sword after a long time. With this, they will regain the honor of their master and his memories. The only thing they need to find next is the culprit who killed their master. The two didn\'t believe that their master died in that fight if not for his opponent\'s underhanded method and they swore to avenge his death.

After some time, all of them have picked up the treasure that they wanted and went out of the treasure room. Then they found themselves back in the hall, where the mayor has already prepared a sumptuous dinner for them on the long table.

"Come to my honored friends; let us eat first before talking about business.." Lubo Xilong said as he gestured for them to sit.
