can go real bad. As often said, ''know thy enemy''. Let''s find out more about them,"
the me Emperor advised Austin after thinking for a while.
"I''m all over it."
Austin brought out the Contact Jade Slip that Elder Sharp had given him and sent out a message.
Very soon after that, a stout, gentle, middle-aged man was seen hurrying to the ce Austin was at.
''Hang on! That is the Holy Heritor of the me Holy Land, Austin Lin.'' On his way, the middle aged
man recognized the person he was walking towards and trembled slightly at the prospect of meeting
such a powerful personality.
He had been able to recognize Austin instantly since thetter wasn''t in disguise.
In front of such a famous and important figure, he began acting respectfully.
"Hello sir. I believe you are the Holy Heritor. My name is Dowson Hao and I am here to help. If you
need anything, just let me know and I will do my level best,"
the middle aged man bowed hurriedly to Austin.
He was a mid-level executive at the Deep Sea Commercial House and was well-informed.
He knew that the young man in front of him was incredibly powerful. Not only that, thetter also had
an incredible master of the Immortal Transforming Realm backing him up. The man could not afford to
displease him.
He had also seen that the owner of the Deep Sea Commercial House, Yannick, always treated Austin
courteously and would be on his beck and call.
Rumor had it that Yannick''s daughter had some sort of rtionship with Austin. Whether it was
romantic or not was, as of yet, unknown.
There were chances that the two would get married in the future.
However, the response Dowson Hao received was highly unexpected.
"There''s no need to be so formal, Dowson. I just want to learn a few things about the royal family of this
kingdom,"
Austin asked in a pleasant tone.
"Yes Mr. Austin. Whatever you need to know, you can ask me. I''ll tell you all I can,"
Dowson Hao replied respectfully.
"Let''s start with the basics. Who''s the emperor now?"
Austin asked.
"Roy Wei,"
Dowson Hao replied shortly.
"Huh! My uncle has really be the emperor!"
the me Emperor eximed inside Austin''s Soul Sea.
"Alright... Do you know Hardy Lv? Is he an official in the court?"
Austin asked.
Actually, to be specific, it was the me Emperor who wanted to know these things. Austin at the
moment, was just a medium.
"Yes sir. Hardy Lv is a general in the army. These days, he is guarding the border of the Cloud Empire.
He is a man of immense power as I''ve heard,"
Dowson Hao told him.
"I knew it.
Hardy Lv, that son of a bitch.
He must have colluded with my uncle. If that weren''t so, Uncle Roy never would have appointed him
general!
It was Hardy with his crew who hunted me down in the early days,"
the me Emperor roared furiously.
"Okay. And what about Leopold Wei? I believe he was the prince a thousand years ago? How is he
doing these days?"
Austin asked.
"Prince Leopold Wei?
The name does ring a bell. It was said that he was charged of treason and relegated to a civilian. My
sources are sure of one thing though.
The man has been under house arrest in the imperial capital city since then and it is unlikely he will
ever be allowed to leave,"
answered Dowson Hao.
"How did that happen? That''s impossible!
My father might not have been a saint, but he would nevermit treason.
My uncle must have framed him somehow. Oh you bastard Roy Wei, I never thought you''d be so cruel
and cowardly. You stole the throne from my father, and then treated him like an prisoner. He was your
family! You obnoxious, lowlife scumbag!" the me Emperor began howling curses in Austin''s Soul
Sea.
He had gotten carried away on hearing that his father had been framed.
"You''re right. Roy Wei does sound ruthless and cowardly.
But rest assured, his good days wille to an end soon,"
Austinforted him.
"Yeah, yeah, they will! Austin, you can''t let him go. And kill Hardy Lv too. I am in this state only because
of him,"
the me Emperor said through gritted teeth.
"Holy Heritor, is there anything else you wish to know?"
Dowson Hao asked when he noticed that Austin had gone silent.
"Yes. Go and round up your best subordinates. I need you to help me take over this kingdom!"
Austin smiled.
"I beg your pardon? "
Dowson Hao was shocked.
"Holy Heritor, I feel like I should warn you. The royal family in this kingdom is in bed with the Arcane
Holy Land. They are backing each other''s y.
Besides, there are numerous powerful cultivators from the Arcane Holy Land guarding the city,"
he reminded Austin gingerly.
"Don''t worry. If even a single person form the Arcane Holy Land dares to meddle in my affairs, I will kill
them all.
You don''t have to be afraid. Just do as I say,"
Austin responded with a sneer.
''So it is true! The Holy Heritor is indeed as overbearing a killer as rumors have made him to be. I
wonder what the royal family of the Cloud Empire has done to this little demon? Ahhhh, never mind!
They are courting their own destruction and I should mind my own business, ''
Dowson Hao thought inwardly.
"Yes, Holy Heritor. Rest assured. I will get it done,"
Dowson Hao responded.
''This young man has a powerful master at the Immortal Transforming Realm on his side. Even the
people of the Arcane Holy Land can''t afford to mess with him. If I try to go against him, I am going to be
in a shitload of trouble. I should just do as I''m told.''
Dowson Hao immediately left to gather his crew.
"Are you going to visit your father now?"
Austin asked.
"No. The crown prince will marry new concubine and the ceremony willst a few days.
He is required by custom to take his concubines for a tour of the imperial capital city tomorrow.
And that darned excused of a king is most likely to show up on the streets with the queen to celebrate
the wedding. They say they do it to share their happiness for the people. I think it''s just an excuse to
gather some support.
Anyhow, when theye out on the streets tomorrow, we will go beat up the royal family members and
that Hardy Lv in front of the entire city.
I want Roy and his family to be humiliated in front of civilians!" the me Emperor decided through
gnashed teeth.
Then something must have struck him.
"Boy, I am not asking too much of you, am I?"
he asked.
"Don''t worry. It''s going to be a piece of cake,"
Austin responded with a smile.
''He has held this deep grudge against his uncle and the man who almost destroyed his soul for
thousands of years now. I don''t think he ever forgot about his revenge even for a second during all that
time.
It would be inappropriate if I were to ignore his request and not fulfill his wishes. The man needs to get
even with his enemies.''
The next day, the imperial capital city was filled with a dense crowd.
A pathway had been cleared in the middle for the procession.
The crown prince was going to marry a couple ofdies. The ceremony would take ce in the pce
in the morning after which, they would make their appearances on the streets.
Numerous civilians had also heard that the king and the queen were going to show up to celebrate this
huge event with them.
For themoners, seeing the king on the streets was a huge deal and they had flocked outside to
catch a glimpse of him.
At dawn, soldiers from the royal family began knocking at the doors and distributed colorful paper
The people were also given some fireworks which they could let set off at night.
Some gold and household items were also distributed in some parts of the city.
All in all, a festive atmosphere enveloped the whole city.
At 9:00 am, three fancy carriages, nked by two ck ones for the guards departed from the imperial
pce and hit the streets.
d in a golden robe and riding a red flood dragon horse was a man who led the whole procession. He
seemed to be in a good mood but seemed haughty in nature.
He was the current crown prince of the Cloud Empire, and the only son of the me Emperor''s uncle—
Roy Wei, who had be the king now.
That made this young man the me Emperor''s cousin.
Behind the crown prince, a luxurious carriage, pulled by six tall, red flood dragon horses proceeded
forwarded. The curtains of the carriage were open, and people along the streets could see the middle-
aged couple sitting inside it. Despite looking like they were thoroughly enjoying themselves, the two
seemed to be exuding an aura of authority.
They were the king and the queen!
The emperor had a square face and was at the premium stage of Major-perfection Realm. He radiated
a domineering, grave aura and his cruelty was visible on his face.
The queen was wearing light make-up today, which gave her an elegant and ssy look.
These magnificent royal carriages attracted the attention of all the people in the entire imperial capital
city as they proceeded on the pre-determined path. Most people would swarm forward and stand on
the sides of the street to see the king, the queen and the crown prince.
"The king is such a figure to them. So many people have gathered here to see him," Austin sneered.
He was standing on the corner of a small street and looking at the grand procession that wasing
his way slowly. A defiant smile appeared on his face.
The carriages of the royal family were just about to go past Austin.
In a sh, he suddenly moved and appeared directly in the center of the street, blocking the
procession''s path.
''What!'' Everyone was shocked. Who would dare to block the king''s path?
''What is going on?
Who is that man daring enough to stand in the way of the emperor and the crown prince ?''
