After walking out of the underground area, Xiao Liong glanced back. He might never return to this place again.
The most important military force of the Great Yu Empire was the Thirteen Imperial Squadrons, and the most important relations were
the imperial possession was with the Huo and Auna families. It was time to calm those families down.
Xiao Liong left the palace, and Bronsen immediately appeared before him. “I'll protect you, Your Highness.”
Xiao Liong nodded. “Thank you.”
Bronsen hurriedly bowed and looked at Xiao Liong's back. Who ever thought that the man who
holding the most power in the empire would be a young man who had not even been born in the Great Yu Empire?
Bronsen still remembered the first time he had protected Xiao Liong. Back then, the young man was only a Sentinel, and he could have casually died at any time.
No one paid too much attention to him, and they were all waiting for him to mess up.
The fact that he had helped Sigmund Mathers almost made him a laughingstock among the upper echelons of the empire.
Even at that time, however, this young man had been able to overcome every crisis that confronted him.
Even as a Sentinel, this young man was able to strike terror into the Sicar. And now, now,
Xiao Liong had become so powerful that even Bronsen had to admit that he was no match for Xiao Liong. How long has it been since those first days? Just two years.
This young man changed so quickly.
Huo's residence was not too far from the imperial palace. When Xiao Liong arrived, Huo Qingshan personally came out and greeted the Royal Regent.
Behind Huo Qingshan stood Huo Xiaoling, whom Xiao Liong had seen before, as well as an adorable little girl.
Greetings to Your Majesty. Huo Qingshan immediately bowed, his tone humble.
Huo Xiaoling only looked at Xiao Liong, but he also bowed.
The little girl gripped Huo Xiaoling's clothes curiously and bowed as well, imitating the older girl.
“No need to be polite. As soon as we get out of the throne room, you are my parents, ” Xiao Liong politely replied.
He would definitely not assume that he was standing above Huo Qingshan just because he was the Royal Regent.
The main reason why the man admitted it was because of the circle of authority and because Xiao Liong had lived in the Great Yu Kingdom for a while.
A strong Hunter wherever he went, and because of that, Huo Qingshan definitely had the right to disregard the small local authority of Xiao Liong.
Huo Qingshan sadly said, “Please, this way, Your Highness.”
Xiao Liong nodded and looked at Huo Xiaoling. Compared to the time during the Earth trials, this girl became more mature and broke through into a Barrier.
Huo Xiaoling watched Xiao Liong look at him, and after recalling what her father said, she blushed. “Have.”
Some time later, Xiao Liong was brought to the residence.
It's not too big. Compared to the land belonging to the Auna family, this residence did not even look like it belonged to a wealthy family.
“You don't seem to be doing well, Huo Qingshan,” Xiao Liong said as he scanned the surroundings.
Huo Qingshan smiled amiably. “There are only a few members of this family living here. Having a small home makes everything comfortable. ”
Xiao Liong knew that Huo Qingshan's wife had died many years ago and that the man had never tried to remarry.
The main family of the Huo clan now only consisted of Huo Qingshan and his two daughters. The other Huo Clans, like Huo Zhong, lived elsewhere.
The most powerful family in the Great Yu Empire only had three people with pure bloodlines.
This is something that no one will believe. In addition, the successor of the family is female.
Xiao Liong mainly visited the Huo family because he wanted to get the full support of Huo Qingshan.
Xiao Liong wanted the Hunters support not only because of the circle of authority, but also because Xiao Liong wanted Huo Qingshan's personal support.
During his time at the Astral Combat Academy, Xiao Liong had seen all kinds of organizations.
While most of the students there were not stronger than him, many of them had connections that allowed them to dispatch experts as they pleased.
This was something that Xiao Liong could not do. However if the Great Yu Empire gave Xiao Liong its full support, then he would be able to grow even faster.
Of course, one thing to consider is if he reaches a position that is too high,
The Great Yu Empire might not be able to follow him and would instead start dragging him down.
“Is it difficult for Limiteer to break through and become an Explorer?” Xiao Liong asked.
Huo Qingshan nodded and seriously replied, “Everyone has a different body and a different cultivation path.
Similarly, breaking through the natural threshold of Explorers is different for each person.
Given your current abilities, it will be much harder for you to become an Explorer than it is for me and most other Explorers.
However, once you succeed, you will gain many rewards and become much stronger than your peers. ”
Xiao Liong was deep in thought. “I heard that Explorers and above all will experience something called fatigue period.”
Xiao Liong had known about this matter for a long time, but he never asked about it because it seemed like it never applied to him.
But now, it was time for him to learn more about it, considering he was only a step away from that world.
