The long list of vows finally stopped torturing Yu Weimin. He nearly dozed off in the middle of making vows, which thankfully wasn't caught by any guests present. Otherwise, he would be recorded as the first king who dozed off during his vows.
Finally, he was done after three more hours.
Three freaking hours!
Why the heck did the ancestors of the Yu Kingdom make such a big vow? Didn't they have anything else to do?
Finally, the event for which he was waiting arrived. The host finally uttered, "Your majesty, now I present you with the shadow guards who kept a vow to even sacrifice their lives to protect you from danger. These are the best of the best from the military school. Please accept them as a gift from the current headmaster, Hu Ning."
Speaking of which, Hu Ning really did a good job managing the entire country without even a hint of greed in his heart. If this were real life, he wouldn't hesitate to make that person his bodyguard for life.
