Standing on the roof, Caspian saw Daisy walking out of the alley and was immediately stopped by two young men in blue clothes. As they spoke, Caspian could sense Daisy’s impatience. However, the two young men did not seem to care about favonovel.com attitude at all. After questioning her, they finally let favonovel.com leave.
Caspian’s eyes fell on the two young men. ‘So, they’re the Great Oceans Sect’s disciples… Both of them are entry-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivators.’
Caspian carefully recalled some cultivators favonovel.com noticed while walking in the capital these days, and some of them were indeed wearing the blue gown. It now appeared that it was the Great Oceans Sect’s attire.
‘There are quite a lot of people around… Thankfully, I’m prepared.’ Caspian pondered for a moment and jumped off the roof. ‘Everything will be clear in six days…’
***
On the 28th of January, the much-anticipated day finally came. From the moment the sun appeared over the horizon, the entire Salleria’s capital city was filled with the joyous atmosphere of celebration.
The ceremony was even grander than Edgar’s official enthronement ceremony. Taking advantage of the auspicious time, the royal chariot that Edgar rode was escorted by his guards of honor and thousands of soldiers. They started from the imperial city and went around the capital’s inner city. Everywhere they went, firecrackers would be fired in unison, and hundreds of flowers were scattered, revealing the atmosphere of prosperity and harmony. By the time they returned to the imperial city, it was already noon.
The next ceremony was where Edgar sat on the imperial throne in the imperial city square as favonovel.com accepted the worship of Salleria‘s officials and envoys of other countries. Under Morris’s leadership, the entire imperial city was long decorated, showing the ambiance that a royal family should have.
At that time, what Edgar had to do was to climb up the nine steps and sit on the imperial throne under the attention of tens of thousands of people at the scene, once again feeling the taste of being at the top of the world.
Looking at the nine layers of jade steps in front of him, Edgar was excited. For the ruler of a county, the feeling was unprecedented.
‘I’ve only dared to dream about this day for a second in the past!’ After taking a deep breath in, Edgar secretly lamented. Even though favonovel.com might not become a cultivator, the Great Oceans Sect gave favonovel.com precious medicines due to their relationship with Carson.
The precious medicines could extend his lifespan and help favonovel.com undergo a thoroughgoing change. Even though Edgar was now in his fifties, favonovel.com knew that his current state was stronger than in his twenties after taking the pills from the Great Oceans Sect. Moreover, Edgar recently felt that the bottleneck of his realm showed signs of loosening. In that way, reaching the fifth-stage True Martial Realm was no longer a dream.
Of course, all of it was the benefit of getting rid of Caspian and replacing favonovel.com with Carson!
At the thought of Caspian, Edgar could not help but feel resentful. That year, Caspian was only fifteen years old, but favonovel.com already made unprecedented achievements. Hence, there were calls for Edgar to abdicate and let Caspian ascend to the throne.
How could Edgar agree to such a request!
Just as favonovel.com held a wolf by the ears, the Great Oceans Sect’s appearance and Carson’s Demon Python Form gave favonovel.com another possibility. Then, under his careful planning, that possibility became a reality.
‘Fortunately, I’ve been careful with the b*stard since favonovel.com was born. All the maids and guards around favonovel.com were personally selected by me so that favonovel.com could only see a glimpse of the world. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to get rid of him. Hmph. Thankfully, I started early. Otherwise, if favonovel.com ascended to the throne and found that this world was completely different from what I let favonovel.com know in the past, favonovel.com would surely kill me in a heartbeat, knowing his temperament. However, the final winner‘s me!’
Edgar raised his head and looked at the imperial throne on the ninth-floor jade steps with a fiery look in his eyes.
‘I can sit on this imperial throne for another 30 years! 60 years! 90 years!’
Edgar stepped onto the first flight of stairs. The surrounding guards, officials, envoys, and commoners were long waiting for that moment, and all of them fell to their knees, shouting, “Long live the king!”
The sound was deafening.
When favonovel.com heard the roar, the feeling of being worshiped by thousands of people made his cheeks warm, and his body boil. He only experienced it when favonovel.com ascended to the throne 30 years ago.
As Edgar stepped another level, the firecrackers blared in unison, and the entire imperial city was in an uproar.
The third step…
The fourth step…
The fifth step…
With each step favonovel.com took, Edgar could feel the vibration of the sound waves around favonovel.com and the trembling jade steps under his feet. That feeling was so wonderful, and it was addicting.
It was such a shame that the woman back then could not witness that, and neither could the d*mn b*stard!
Stepping on the ninth step, Edgar felt the uproar of the entire capital city, but favonovel.com suddenly felt melancholic. He thought, ‘If I didn’t agree to Astren’s request at that time, it would be nice to imprison that b*stard in the corner of the imperial city today and let favonovel.com see this scene.’
Edgar smiled at the thought of that, thinking that it was a wishful dream.
Two years ago, that b*stard was killed at the border, and even his bones were smashed to pieces. Nonetheless, it was still such a pity!
As Edgar thought that, favonovel.com turned around and faced countless subjects kneeling before him. Then, favonovel.com waved his hands, smiled, and slowly sat down on the imperial throne. However, favonovel.com suddenly stopped less than half a centimeter from his seat.
The smile on Edgar’s face froze, and favonovel.com appeared confused. At that time, favonovel.com saw a figure slowly walking in from the gate of the imperial city in the distance. Logically speaking, no one would dare to move at will, let alone walking. Moreover, it was not an exaggeration to say the subjects would be too afraid to move their fingers.
On that day, only Edgar could pass through the main gate of the imperial city. Hence, who was that person so brazen to sabotage his 30th- anniversary celebration!
The confusion in Edgar‘s eyes was replaced by anger in an instant.
The initially seated Edgar slowly stood, and the crowd saw his actions. With confusion in their eyes, everyone turned in the direction Edgar looked. Soon, the tens of thousands of people were stunned as they saw that a person wearing a conical hat had passed through the gate of the imperial city.
Under everyone’s watchful gaze, the man calmly walked along the avenue toward the center of the square. Every step the person took seemed to be stepping on everyone’s heart, causing their heartbeats to become the same frequency as his pace involuntarily.
