Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)



The man in armor was obviously none other than the general of Yoraland, Isaiah's father, Pearce. Sitting to his left, the bearded man must be the governor, Tegan.

Throughout this period of time, Fade managed to understand the general situation in Yoraland.

In theory, a governor should be the leader of the country. After all, it was his duty to deal with the country's affairs, such as the economy and well- being of citizens.

Because King An roe was worried that the governor might have too much to handle, he purposely allocated the military aspect of the country to someone else. That was why he appointed a general to handle all military matters.

This arrangement was somehow a plan to balance between the powers.

The governor was supposedly the most powerful since he had the most duties to carry.

But at the same time, the most important duty of all, the military, was handed over to the general. Hence, the general could keep the governor in check.

The duties of a governor and general might differ from place to place, but generally, they were meant to balance each other out. However, it was obviously not like this at all in Main Southern City.

In the governor's office, Pearce sat in the highest chair. In fact, he did not seem to be bothered by people seeing him do so at all. Fade thought back to what the waiter had said earlier about how people called this place "Yang City".

It was not easy to realize that the position of the governor here was nothing more than a puppet.

The real leader of the country was Pearce.

In the past, Fade had only heard rumors about how influential the Yang family was in the south.

Now, seeing it and feeling it for himself, he finally understood their dominance.

Just as Fade was deep in thought, Pearce suddenly stood up, waved his big hand, and shouted, "Welcome, oracle."

A uniformed roar came from the soldiers standing on each side of the hall.

"Roar, roar!"

Feeling the threat of the situation, Fade's expression shifted.

He could feel that all the soldiers were around Stage 6 of Star Fire Realm.

At a level like that, they would be considered highly skilled even in the imperial city. Yet, they chose to work here as ordinary soldiers.

From this, it could be seen that Pearce had quite the influence over the southern region. It was no wonder that even King An roe was hesitant to challenge him.

After the roar, Pearce came down from his seat. With a hearty laugh, he took the initiative to walk up to Fade, bent over, and cupped his hands. "It is a great honor to meet you, oracle."

By his side, Tegan also bowed. "Your subordinate Tegan greets the Oracle."

Fade narrowed his eyes slightly and waved his hand. "You're being too polite. Please get up, Mr. Yang and Mr. Han."

The two stood up and greeted Fade respectfully, "Please, take a seat."

After that, the two men stood to the side. They left all three seats ajar for Fade to personally choose where to sit. Quietly, they stared at him.

Seeing this, Fade glanced at Pearce and immediately understood what he meant.

He was purposely putting on a show of an exaggerated welcome for Fade.

Although he claimed to be welcoming the oracle, in reality, he was showcasing his authority.

When they asked Fade to take a seat, it was actually a test. They were trying to gauge his character based on which seat he chose.

Fade knew this of course. He swept his gaze past the three seats.

Needless to say, the seat in the center symbolized the leader of the southern province.

It should have been Tegan's seat, but the seat had been taken by Pearce.

Tegan then sat on the left, leaving the right seat empty.

This was a hint to Fade that the seat on the right belonged to him. Here, he was not even worthy of being considered second to the top. He was allocated the third position and was expected to obediently follow Pearce's will.

If Fade had truly been the king's special envoy, he definitely would have admitted defeat in a situation like this. He would have sat down on the right seat and chosen to avoid conflict with Pearce.

After all, everyone knew how powerful the Yang family was in the southern province.

However, Fade was not a typical envoy, he was an oracle from the upper world.

Moreover, Fade's current mission was to cooperate with Lukas and complete Plan Fire Glow in order to help him reach the Controlling Realm.

Hence, there was no need for Fade to appease Pearce at all. All he needed was to get him to go along with his plans.

These thoughts flashed across Fade's mind.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised. He stepped out, walked to the main seat in the middle, and sat down without hesitation.

Seeing this, Pearce and Tegan narrowed their eyes at the same time.

Fade even caught the flash of anger in Pearce's eyes.

However, the two of them were not idiots. They quickly buried their thoughts and smiled as they sat to his left and right.

Next was the welcome banquet.

There were all kinds of delicious food, wine, and beautiful women.

Fade did not hesitate to drink and have fun.

After all, with his strength, he didn't have to worry about Pearce and the others at all. As for the possibility of being poisoned, that was not a concern for him either. His true Yuan Seal, the World Tree, was able to act as an antidote.

As a result, he managed to really enjoy himself at the banquet.

After the banquet ended, Tegan arranged for Fade and the others to rest in the governor's office.

Pearce returned to his tent on the excuse of military affairs.

In the tent, Pearce sat down with a gloomy face.

Beside him, several burly people approached him one after another.

"Mr. Yang, how is he? How is the oracle?"

"Does he seem easy to go up against? What realm is he at?"

Pearce snorted and said in a deep voice, "He's a very arrogant man. In front of me, he dared to sit down at the highest seat"

"Not only that, I told the woman beside him at the banquet to subtly mention Isaiah."

"But that guy didn't bother hiding a thing. He even brought up the Yellow Warbler Tower incident."

Upon hearing this, the trusted subordinates immediately got riled up.

"General, that guy is too much."

"That's right. Mr. Isaiah has been crippled, and he still dares to come to us?"

"Why don't we find an opportunity to kill that kid? I'd like to see how proud he can be then."

"We'd better not act rashly. He is the oracle after all."Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"So what? As if he's any different from the other people from the imperial city. Everyone dies all the same."

"The others were just ordinary envoys. This guy is supposed to be an oracle from the upper world. He's in a totally different league. Even An roe and

the others show respect to them."

"Bah! All this oracle and upper world bullsh*t. I don't see it as an issue. We just need to assign more men to the job that's all."
