“Please take me to Zenyu Star, Bronsen. I want to meet that big relative, ”Xiao Liong said coldly.
Bronsen was a little worried. “The relative has the support of various outside parties, and there are Explorers and even Cruisers supporting them.
You don't have a lot of comparisons, and you will definitely lose if you go alone. Even now, they are preparing to eliminate you! ”
Xiao Liong chuckled. “It's okay. They have the support of other organizations, but I have the most support of them all. Let's go.”
Bronsen could only nod in response.
Before Xiao Liong arrived at this space station, Peach had told him that there were four captains of the Thirteen Imperial Squadrons in the Zenyu star:
fifth Squadron Captain Huo Qingshan, Ninth Squadron captain Rocky Auna, Twelfth Squadron captain Ban Jiu and Thirteenth Squadron captain Liuying Zishan.
These four people did not support any of the close relatives, but Xiao Liong did not know if they would support him.
The only thing he can do is try it. Even if they did not support him, the organization behind this relative still did not dare to attack him.
Even if these relatives didn't understand the whole situation, the relationship they had definitely knew what the Lockbreaker Society was, after all,
The Astral Academy Council, and the Outer Youth Council. This was the main reason for Xiao Liong's courage.
One of those supporters was enough to ensure his safety here, and he had all three.
There are only so many things a single person can do on his own, but his connections are clearly strong enough to support what he wants to do now.
Originally, Xiao Liong only wanted Bronsen to take him to that relative, after which he would take them out one by one.
But he didn't do that. Instead, he had Bronsen take him directly to the imperial palace.
“The palace has been sealed since His Majesty died. Other than Princess Wendy, no one else is allowed in, ” Bronsen told Xiao Liong.
Xiao Liong approached the palace, but when he arrived at the entrance, he was stopped. The one guarding the palace was Ban Jiu, the captain of the Twelfth Squadron.
When the second prince turned traitor, Ban Jiu and his vice-captain, Shalosh, went with the prince.
That meant he was a traitor to the Great Yu Empire, but the Eternal Yushan
never thought of it that way. Thus, he was technically still the captain of the Twelfth Squadron.
Many were unable to understand the reason behind this move, but Xiao Liong knew that Duke Yushan had not turned into a traitor because he wanted to.
The immortal Yushan had forced his son to do so in order to protect his son from impending doom, and thus left the Great Yu Empire with little hope.
Rather than say that Ban Jiu, Batson, Shalosh, and Felut had supported the second prince's decision to betray the empire,
it was actually more appropriate to say that they had been sent by the Undead Yushan to protect Duke Yushan.
However, now that Undying Yushan had died, Ban Jiu had returned and was now guarding the palace of his own accord. Another traitor captain, the,
Shaolsh, remains at the forefront of the imperial war against the Ross Empire. The Thirteen Squadrons had never betrayed the Eternal Yushan.
“Stop there. The palace is an important place that no one should enter. ” At the entrance, vice captain of the Twelfth Squadron,
Shalosh stopped Xiao Liong even though he had a complicated look in his eyes.
He clearly recognized Xiao Liong because he had met him all the way back on the exam on Earth.
However, even as King Zishan, Xiao Liong was not allowed to enter the imperial palace.
In any case, Undying Yushan never officially announced that King Zishan had the right to inherit the throne.
Xiao Liong paid no heed to Shalosh, stared at the huge palace, and then stared intently at the Zishan Residence in the distance
the second size after the palace. He's sighing. Many things had changed, but the Eternal Yushan was still dead.
To Xiao Liong, Undying Yushan was a kind-hearted old man who had protected, taught, and supported him.
He did not know how others looked at Undying Yushan, but he did not care.
All he knew was that he did not want everything that Undying Yushan had spent his entire life to be destroyed in the blink of an eye.
After his mind reached this point, Xiao Liong took out a ring from his cosmic ring; it was the ring of authority that Eternal Yushan had given him.
With this, he had the right to lead the armies of the Great Yu Empire. It was the symbol of the ruler of the Great Yu Empire.
As he looked at the ring, Shalosh's eyes changed, and he bowed. Bronsen flinched and quickly followed.
Right after, the palace guards and even the captain of the Twelfth Squadron, Ban Jiu, came out and bowed to
Xiao Liong's.
“Can I log in now?” Xiao Liong asked softly.
“Please enter, King Zishan,” Ban Jiu replied sharply. His voice was cold, and he was wearing white clothes.
If this was the first time Xiao Liong had met this person, he would have never expected that this captain was an Explorer.
Among the various captains of the Thirteen Squadrons, Huo Qingshan and the Blind Monk represented strength while Ban Jiu represented technology and wisdom.
He had provided the Great Yu Empire with advanced technology that allowed them to compete with the various organizations in the Innerverse.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the empire to stop the Ross Empire's attacks just based on the level of their respective strength.
When Undying Yushan assigns Ban Jiu to Duke Yushan, it is apparent that he is completely desperate and believes that he cannot protect his kingdom.
“Think to the public that the circle of authority is in my hands, Bronsen. If anyone wants it, then,
then they can come and try to take it from me, ” Xiao Liong said before stepping into the palace.
Bronsen was surprised and wanted to say something, but instead, he only saw the figure of Xiao Liong disappear into the distance. He then bowed and left.
Ban Jiu stared at Xiao Liong's back with sparkling eyes.
“It looks like something big is about to happen. Should we stop the distant relatives if they come here? ” Shalosh asked.
Ban Jiu glanced at his subordinates. “Focus on your own work. It's none of your business. ”
Shalosh snorted acknowledgingly, but his eyes shone with anticipation.
From the outside, the imperial palace looked the same as it used to be. It was solemn, dignified, and filled with storied pieces of history.
However, once one entered it, one would only see a broken spear left behind, a collapsed wall, and traces of an old battle.
This is where the battle has taken place. The actual battle to the death did not take place inside the palace, either,
Even so, through the deep crack in the ground, Xiao Liong was able to figure out how dangerous the situation was during the battle.
He slowly crouched down and closed his eyes as he activated his Cosmic Art.
His realm then spread through the cracks of the ground like dripping mercury.
With the third eye of the Giant Emperor in hand, he finally discovered a familiar aura; it belonged to Undying Yushan.
Even after a long time had passed, his aura still managed to shock Xiao Liong to the point that he could not help but tremble.
He continued to fumble the cracks on the ground until, suddenly, an extremely dark and cold force rushed towards him.
Xiao Liong's eyes instantly opened, and he unleashed a punch, causing star energy to explode in all directions and change the air.
He then took a step back while panting. This cold power came from the enemy who had killed the Undead Yushan.
His strength was extremely cold and extremely bloodthirsty. Xiao Liong felt that no living creature could survive like that.
It reminded him of the Neohuman Alliance because there was someone in that organization who gave him a similar feeling:
Silverware. Although Silver's abilities weren't as dark as this, this energy was very similar to Silver's domain, which was specially made for killing.
As he had expected, the person who had killed the Eternal Yushan was not a powerhouse from the Ross Empire. Xiao Liong was certain of that.
His gaze swept the ground. All of these cracks must have originated from that single attack in an instant. He stepped past them and proceeded towards the main hall.
There were no guards inside the palace; they were only stationed outside. The palace was completely silent inside.
The moment Xiao Liong arrived at the hall, news of him having a ring of authority and entering the palace spread, shocking Zenyu Star.
Above the sea, the Explorers continued to fight. In the distance, the two youths indifferently spoke to each other.
“He was just a random person who had absolutely no contact with the emperor, but he was still competing for the throne.
Let's temporarily put aside our grudges and deal with that King Zishan or whatever it is first. “
Kelai looked moody. “Good, but the ring is mine, Andong.”
“Pfft. It's mine.”
“What you said!”
The two Explorers locked in battle exchanged looks of shock.
Kelai and Andong may not be aware of some things, but the two Explorers were well aware that King Zishan had
shocking the universe during the Astral Fighting Tournament; he had an unimaginable status now.
Apparently he had even entered the Astral Academy Council and was now directly under the Council of Ten Arbitrators.
That means he must be someone strong. The organization that sent them here is not afraid of anyone except the two people – Wendy Yushan and King Zishan, respectively,
Xiao Liong's. Now, the last one has returned.
“Young Lord Andong, King Zishan cannot be underestimated. It is better if you treat him well and
asking for his support and asking him to peacefully give you a circle of authority, ”one of the Explorers advises Andong.
Andong was surprised by the response. Before the Great Yu Empire ended up in its current tragic state,
he could only become a disciple through his connections. He knew nothing about who was in power and had never even watched the Astral Combat Tournament.
This was also why he was chosen to be the emperor it would be easy to control him. But there's a problem with that too.
He did not know who Xiao Liong was, and he would become bolder than before after his recent activity.
“What, you mean King Zishan is very powerful?” Andong asked indifferently.
The explorer had a grim expression. He did not know how to persuade this fool. Sometimes, he wished this fool would still be this stupid, he said,
but his stupidity becomes a problem in the situation as it is today; a fool always overestimates himself.
Meanwhile, Kelai was having the exact same problem. As the one who has the highest chance to succeed the throne,
there was no way he would treat someone outside of the Yushan family with manners.
Still, he promised to be polite, just like he did when trying to gather the support of the various imperial ministers.
“Do not worry. I will give him the treatment he deserves. As long as he doesn't betray me,
he will continue to be King Zishan. Of course, it was only if he knew the place, ” Kelai said haughtily.
In another part of Zenyu Star, Luke had a pale expression. “Long Chu is dead? King Zishan killed him? ”
A powerhouse behind him replied, “Ya, Young Master Luke.”
“Hmph, how dare he touch my men! Does he think that he can still finish his match
with the Auna family just because the Eternal Yushan used to protect her? Dream!” Luke is angry.
“Better if you treat King Zishan politely. He held a ring of authority, and there were quite a few people who supported him.
If he supports you, then most likely you will successfully ascend the throne, ”whispers that powerhouse.
Luke took a deep breath several times and somehow managed to calm himself down.
“I got it. Don't worry, I'll win her favor with my sincerity. ”
“Good, but I still need to remind you that even though he is King Zishan in the Great Yu Empire,
he also had another identity that was far more important than that. For example, he was a member of the Astral Academy Council and also a Lockbreaker. ”
Luke's surprised. “She is Lockbreaker ?!”
“Iya. Before he returned to Frostwave Weave, we investigated him and recently discovered that he was two Bright Eyed Junior Lockbreaker stars.
His status cannot be underestimated. He also earned contributions at the frontlines of the border and even earned Honor Points.
He also recently joined the Overseas Youth Council after taking first place in the Foreign Affairs court.
He has a great influence, ”sang Explorers explained. The more he spoke, the more surprised he was by himself.
Was this really an achievement that the young Limiteer from the outskirts of Weave could achieve? Xiao Liong had achieved so many things that it was unbelievable!
