Chapter 1082: The Tide Turn Around - Part 2

The Alliance Council mentioned it as an interview to look for more evidence and testimonies if the Virandal Empire really broke the Alliance Rules. However, the alliance had an absurd requirement for the witness to share their window status. The reason was that they wanted to ensure the witness' identity.         

    

"Can you calm down, and let's talk this out. Escape from the city does not resolve the problem, Ying." Old Man Gortham expected Ying would refuse to attend the witness testimony with those requirements. However, he did not expect that Ying would rather become the alliance's enemy instead of listening to the request.     

Tang Shaoyang shook his head. "There's no issue in the first place. The Virandal Empire admitted that it was one of the nobles' actions without their authorization. So, what's this interrogation for? What's more, they are asking me to show my window status?" He squinted his eyes and looked at Gortham in the eyes. "I see; you are also curious about my window status, hah? Of course, how naive of me to think you will be on my side."     

Tang Shaoyang turned around and left the room and ignored Guild Master Gortham's attempt to stop him from leaving. As soon as he left the room, he met with seven people. Eril, Damian, Roman, and Lulu were among the seven, but he did not recognize the other three men.     

"Are you Ying?" One of the three men asked.     

Tang Shaoyang ignored the man as he went to the stairs. He really planned to leave the city, but before he could get to the stairs, the two other men blocked him. "Are you mutt? Our Young Lord asked you."     

Tang Shaoyang looked up at the person that looked up at him, and he released his killing intent along with his Slayer Aura. The two men who blocked him were caught off guard and subconsciously took three steps back. However, behind them were stairs, and they slipped, losing their balance. Tang Shaoyang walked through the gap between the two men and passed them as the two men tried to balance themselves.     

"Wait, Sir Ying…." Eril called out, but there was no response as the man took the stairs down.     

Not long after, Guild Master Gortham came out of his room. "Do you really have to do this?" He looked at the young man who had earlier asked Tang Shaoyang. "He is your younger sister's benefactor. If not for him, you would not be able to see your younger sister right now."     

"I am sorry, Guild Master. I am just following the Council's decision." After that, the man followed Tang Shaoyang.

Down in the lobby, more people gathered. The black armored people blocked the entrance, seven of them with a spear in their hands. Their faces were covered in the helmet, but their sharp eyes could not be hidden. As soon as someone came from the upper floors, the seven black armored people immediately looked toward the person with sharp eyes.     

Tang Shaoyang felt like being stared at by savage beasts, but it did not deter him a little bit. He had killed so many savage beasts, seven more savage beasts did not really matter to him. On top of that, they were inside the starter city, so they would not initiate the attack.     

The adventurers recognized the 21st S Rank Adventurers of their guild, but the seven did not recognize him. Tang Shaoyang walked toward the entrance, but the seven black armored people did not budge. "Move!"     

The seven people looked at each other for a moment, then they noticed that the adventurers seemed to admire the man in front of them. They guessed the man was one of the S Rank Adventurers. They were about to give a path, but a voice from the stairs stopped them. "Don't let him leave the building!" They recognized their Young Lord's voice and immediately tightened the gap.     

"Hah…." Tang Shaoyang let out a long sigh. "You guys are right. These ungrateful bastards would turn against me."     

The adventurers and the people from the Mistovel Family looked at each other, wondering to whom Tang Shaoyang talked. It looked like he talked to someone, but no one responded to him. Of course, Tang Shaoyang talked to his spirit; it was just he talked it out instead of using telepathy.     

Tang Shaoyang turned around to meet with this Young Lord guy. "What do you need from me?"     

"Are you, Ying?" The Young Lord repeated the same question.     

"What if I am, and what if I am not?" Tang Shaoyang replied, but then he waved his hand. "What am I doing? I am not in the mood to play." He spoke to himself. "Yes, I am Ying. What do you need?"     

"Then you have to follow me to meet the council for testimony as a witness." The Young Lord replied in a flat tone.     

"Does it still require me to show my full window status?" Even though Tang Shaoyang knew the answer, he still asked.     

"Yes, you do need to show your window status to confirm your identity." The straightforward answer came from the Young Lord.     

"Then I have to decline to attend the witness testimony. I don't want to give my testimony, not when I have to share my window status."     

"The interviewer will take an oath that they will not share a single detail about your window status, so you don't need to worry, Ying." The Young Lord tried to convince Ying just like Guild Master Gortham did.     

"It does not change the fact that all factions in this city will know about me, everything. From my skills to my bloodline. You should know how important the secrecy of our window status is?"

"I am just following the council's decision, and you have to obey the council if you still want to stay in the city and stay safe outside the city." The Young Lord avoided the question and threatened Tang Shaoyang.     

"So, what can you do if I refuse to follow you to meet the Council? Can you force me to follow you?" Tang Shaoyang smiled. Violence was prohibited inside the city, or the faction would get expelled from the city. That meant these people could not use force on me, so he was curious about what they would do. It was just another way for him to gain more information about the starter city. If there are any loopholes inside the starter city that he could share with Zhang Mengyao.
