As they flew high above the sky, clouds floated among them, and they could see the sun shining
brightly.

While Rocky and La rode behind Rubygon, they looked down at the territory of the Shura Race.
Compared to the outskirts of the Ghostly Demon Land, thend beneath them looked so barren and
should not be suitable for living. Just thinking that the Shura Race was dwelling in it disappointed them.
"When my mother was the queen who ruled the Shura Race, there were still many beautiful ces that
could be found in our territory. But look at this. After the current royal family took over, these ces
were upied by demons, turning everything into hellish ruins..." La heaved a deep sigh, letting out
her frustrations.
"Well, in my opinion, the Shura Race deserves this. In the end, they only have themselves to me for
everything that happened. It is said that the Shura Race used to be a powerful race that worshipped
deities. Butter on, they became greedy and began cultivating evil skills. Now, the fate of the whole
race was drastically changed." Rocky had a general understanding of the history of the Shura Race
after learning some parts of it from Corey''s memory. Therefore, he knew that this cruel fate was
actually brought by the members of the Shura Race themselves.
"Although the words you said were unpleasant to hear, I cannot deny the truth behind them. I heard
from my mother that the Shura Race has really fallen so low, but she did not talk about every specific
detail. For the Shura Race, that period of history is very dark, and it cannot just be revealed to others.
Otherwise, when ordinary citizens know about it, the royal family might lose the people''s trust. They will
be publicly humiliated and have no dignity left," La responded in a gloomy tone.
"Your Royal Highness, I have a question for you. If you can give me a satisfactory answer, I will help
you fulfill your greatest wish..." Rocky proposed out of nowhere.
"Sure, go ahead," La replied calmly. In fact, she already thought that Rocky might have his own
considerations about the current situation. Right now, he had the Purgatorial Tripod in his hands, so he
actually had the power to control the candidates, who aspired to be the next ruler, ording to his will.
"With all that is going on, do you still think that there is a need for the royal family to exist?" Rocky
asked bluntly. The other main reason why Rocky asked La to go back to the royal family alone with
him was so he could have a serious talk with her. He wanted to take advantage of this chance to figure
out what was in her mind and therefore think of his next steps in carrying out his n.
Hearing this, La was actually taken aback. She did not expect that Rocky would even ask such a
question. After all, everyone knew that the royal family was the supreme existence that governed the
Shura Race. They had ruled for thousands of years, and no one really questioned this system. It could
be said that if the royal family was erased, it was also equivalent to eliminating the entire Shura Race.
"I know that you may have some reservations answering this question, but know that your response
may affect the future of the entire Shura Race," Rocky sternly reminded.
"So, basically, you are saying that if I can''t give you a satisfying answer, you won''t help me be the
ruler?" La asked straightforwardly. She was not the type of person who wanted to beat around the
bush, so she immediately confirmed what Rocky was thinking before she gave an answer.
"To put it simply... Yes," Rocky replied.
"First of all, the royal family has been ruling the Shura Race for thousands of years, and you can say
that this system is already deeply rooted in everyone. The moment the royal family ceased to exist, the
force that holds the entire race would also be gone. That means that the nine major fiefs will definitely
have their own kings since even you know that they cannot cooperate with each other. When this
happens, the Shura Continent will plunge into an even more chaotic situation. At the same time, the
human race and the spiritual race will inevitably be involved in this mess. Therefore, as for my answer, I
still think that the royal family is necessary. However, several changes must take ce. Even if the
royal family continues to exist but the same kind of government will be implemented, then it will be
pointless. Sooner orter, we wille to a dead-end and the entire continent might be extinct."
La voiced her thoughts like the true leader that she was.
"I see. It''s just as I expected." Rocky let out a smile, knowing that more or less, this would be La''s
answer. However, he still asked the question because he wanted to hear it from her mouth.
"So, is this the answer you wanted to hear?" La asked and stared at Rocky with burning eyes.
"It did not really matter what your answer is. All I wanted to see is your conviction to the idea that you
are supporting. Since you showed me your determination to change the royal family, I now have
enough reason to back you up to be the next ruler of the Shura Race," Rocky revealed.
"Really? You have already made up your mind? You know that you don''t have to support any of the
candidates, right? You can be the king yourself since you already have the Purgatorial Tripod.
Moreover, you are a Godly Genius, you possess incredible strength, and you even have the divine
weapon that sealed Phillip''s soul. You can easily establish your position as the king of the Shura Race,
and I highly doubt that anyone will dare oppose you." Of course, La could not help but have some
misgivings. She thought that Rocky might even be more qualified or capable of taking the role than her.
However, this was not what Rocky wanted.
"To be perfectly honest, I am not the least interested in bing the king. I have more important
things to do, so I''m afraid I can nevermit to this role. Besides, I believe that you will inherit your
mother''s will and be a good ruler that the Shura Race needs." From the beginning, Rocky already
felt that La had what it took to change the Shura Race and even the entire Shura Continent. Hence,
right now, all he needed to do was ensure that she could inherit the throne. After that, he could make
La listen to whatever he wished.
"Okay then. I am just overwhelmed after hearing you say that you will fully support me. Anyway, I
promise that I won''t let you down!" La dered resolutely.
"But of course, we are still not a hundred percent sure that you can sessfully be the next ruler
even though I have the tripod with me," Rocky uttered, changing the subject all of a sudden. Because
of Enoch''s collusion with the demonic race, a great uproar would surely be created within the royal
family. It would not be farfetched if he suddenly rebelled and divided the Shura Race just so he could
protect himself. If that happened, there was a huge chance that the appointment of the next ruler would
be dyed. Hence, for the time being, they needed to return to the royal family before it was toote.
A dayter, they finally arrived in their destination. As Rubygonnded, it emitted an aura that instantly
caused amotion in the city. Since it was a powerful demonic beast, people panicked and thought
that a monster had invaded.
Soon enough, some of the Spiritual Emperors of the royal family rushed out with some guards and
surrounded Rubygon.
On the other hand, Rubygon had its typical bad temper. Upon seeing that it was being besieged, it
immediately let out a domineering roar, instantly scaring the guards. They could not help but tremble
and some even fell to the ground.
At the same time, the Spiritual Emperors broke into a cold sweat, wondering where the overbearing
diabolic beast came from.
But the next moment, two figures flew down, shocking the guards and Spiritual Emperors present.
Seeing the faces of the two familiar figures, a Spiritual Emperor could just stammer in surprise, "P-
princess La? It is indeed you! We''re d that you''re finally back!" The Spiritual Emperor on the lead
eventually regained hisposure and greeted respectfully upon confirming that it was Princess
La.
