It took Dana just two days to return to the Azure continent's capital as a Frost Wyvern. Since returning to the Capital she decided to meet Kaiden before old man Zhao as she knows with the knowledge of her true capabilities the old man wouldn't worry about her that much.
As soon as she reached the location that was arranged since her last conversation with Kaiden, she saw an anxious-looking Kaiden pacing. This look was soon removed as he saw Dana emerges in front of him.
"Hey, why are you currently looking like you're being held hostage at gunpoint?" Asked Dana in a questioning tone.
"At gunpoint? What the hell is that?" Replied Kaiden with a puzzled expression.
"Hmm. Just a saying where I'm from. Never mind about that anyways, so have you achieved what I asked for?" Said Dana.
"Well, it took me a long time to pull off, but I have managed to inform all of the Noble Families which had a friendly relationship with Lord Evergreen. As they felt like they have owed me something for a long time due to steering clear of me when the Evergreen clan fell, not that I can't blame them because it would directly cause them to cross the four most powerful noble families in Azure Continent, and to cause that much trouble for a mere child they have no relationship with? I can understand them, but it doesn't mean I like it. As I was talking about with the evidence you provided me they fully believe that Lord Evergreen's death was caused by the Azure Emperor and they fully want to get rid of him as much as I, however, they will only join once they have seen proof of your strength, which is why I set up a meeting with them today." Responded Kaiden.
"Good. As soon as that is finished I can finally get rid of that Azure Emperor" Hissed Dana in a chilling tone.
Upon seeing the way Dana said the Azure Emperor's name with much hate, made even Kaiden slightly pity the fate that the Azure Emperor will face under Dana's wrath.
As soon as they finished discussing the task Dana entrusted to Kaiden, Dana attempted to ask what happened to the Azure Capital since she left, which only left her with Kaiden's blushing face in which he told her "Nothing" with an expression which totally said something happened but he doesn't want to inform her. In fact Kaiden is terrified senseless of what Dana would do to him if she knew the rumours of him being her "Boy Toy" were told to her which is why he decided to distance himself away from Dana as much as possible when they get back to the Azure Academy, he is afraid that even if he wasn't the cause of the rumours Dana might take it out on "Little Kaiden" and he doesn't want to be crippled in that place for the rest of his life, he is still a young man after all.
Therefore, after Dana realized Kaiden was obviously avoiding her questions it seems she will just have to find out what he is on about later, not that she doubts she will care like how bad could it be? Was the speculation Dana had as she and Kaiden went to the designated meeting area with the noble families they arrived in front of a tall manor with a grand gate, there obviously there were many visitors present by the number of carriages inside the estate.
As soon as she and Kaiden approached the entrance, they were quickly let in as the guards recognized Kaiden as being the individual in which the Lord wanted to see. With passing through easily, Kaiden and Dana made their way to the meeting room through the directions of the maids in which the Noble families that were former friends with Lord Evergreen awaited.
When they entered the meeting room, Dana saw eight middle-aged men across her. Each having a Qi Circulation Ninth Rank Realm Cultivation. As soon as Kaiden and Dana approached one of the middle-aged men, which she presumed to the Lord of this estate walked up to Kaiden.
"Kaiden, we meet again and who is the beautiful young lady next to you?" Lord Greystone asked.
"This is Dana, she is the one I talked to you about." As soon as Kaiden said these gasps were heard as each of the Lords gazed into Dana's beautiful face, looking at her, she is eighteen years old and you are saying she has the strength to kill the Azure Emperor? Preposterous! They had a slight hope that Kaiden was right as they were tired of the Azure Emperor's tyranny for a while now, he was simply a leech which did nothing but harm towards the Kingdom. The only decent thing he does is scare away with the other Kingdoms with his cultivation, other than he wastes finances from the Kingdom for his own use and betrays his own people if they disagree or pose a threat towards him! He's nothing but a scourge on their Empire, which these passionate loyalist men despise.
"This young brat? Kaiden we had hoped that you would be talking the truth when you said an expert would assist us in removing the Azure Emperor!...."
Before Lord Greystone could continue speaking a pressuring aura emerged from Dana shocking the eight Lords into silence, as these eight Lords felt that Dana's aura of suppression through cultivation was the most powerful they have witnessed, even surpassing the Azure Emperor! An eighteen-year-old individual which is stronger than the Azure Emperor, a genius, no simply a monstrous genius! As these men haven't seen something so incredible their entire lives the room just remained silent for a few minutes as they took a while to gather a reaction to Dana's power. However, soon they came up with a conclusion as they were High Nobles they were completely ignorant about the powers outside the continent which are many times stronger than the Azure Continent, originally they felt it was an exaggeration as they never truly witnessed the true world however upon seeing Dana they believed that she must be a Top Disciple of an incredibly powerful sect? And why is she here? They all looked towards Kaiden, they heard rumours about Kaiden being a "Pretty Boy" which is an expert at "picking up woman", they think Dana was probably a genius going out for experience and as a young naive girl which was secluded her whole life with no companionship whilst cultivating they believe that her maiden heart was moved by "Pretty Boy" Kaiden! They immediately applauded Kaiden in their hearts for making such a great contribution towards the Empire by using his unique set of "skills" to receive powerful assistance that the Azure Empire desperately needs!
"We believe you now girl, you got our full support as soon as you want, our help in passing the Azure Empire to a new Emperor we will provide our full assistance!" Spoke each of the Lords, unanimously agreeing with the proposal made.
"Thank you, we will head towards the Palace of the Azure Emperor tomorrow! I have a plan to ensure that the Azure Emperor gathers his Houtian subordinates in one place! However, when they are removed I want you to release evidence on the Azure Emperors wrongdoings and help Kaiden in ascending as the new Emperor!" As soon as Dana finished speaking a dumbfounded look emerged on Kaiden's face, however, for the other eight Lords, it is understandable. Damn, that Kaiden is good.. his "skills" much be more proficient than we thought. Lord Greystone even winked towards Kaiden which just made him even more confused about the situation unfolding before him.
"Me? Emperor? How can I be Emperor I'm a commoner!" Blurted out Kaiden.
"Kaiden doesn't underestimate yourself, firstly your talent isn't bad, so you will easily have sufficient strength to rule the Empire once you fully mature as your talent is just as good as the Azure Emperor, not to mention that you are actually more hardworking than him which means you will likely surpass him in the future, you will easily have sufficient strength to rule this Empire! Lastly, your character is good, as you were raised as a commoner you have experienced what none of these nobles has, and from your experience, you have more understanding and be a better ruler for everyone in this Empire, not just the nobles! Kaiden thinks about this, do you think any other noble taking over, in the long run, will truly benefit the commoners, if you don't step up and became Emperor then the same as what occurred with the Azure Emperor will happen! It will just be replacing a selfish ruler with another selfish individual! Do you want something that happened to you to occur again?" Declared Dana in a commanding tone.
"No, I guess you right Dana, I will take over the Empire for the good of the commoners! I won't let what I experience happen to anyone else!" Countered Kaiden determinedly.
A smile emerged on Dana's beautiful face, it seems the words I said has gotten into him. The first time she met Kaiden, Dana decided to make him the new Emperor, to her, it was a no-brainer for Kaiden to be the new Emperor. He is a formal noble which lived as a commoner, therefore his noble heritage cannot be denied and at the same time, he has experienced what no other noble had, what is it like to live as an average person in this Empire. This means he will benefit the Empire greatly, as he won't just focus on the nobles in the past, but will give more opportunities towards the common people making this Empire thrive! Not to mention that his talent is enough and the only individual which could have compared to Kaiden previously was the First Prince, but with him being dead Kaiden is basically the most talented individual among the Azure Country younger generation.
So, therefore he is the best candidate in Dana's opinion.
The meeting continued for another thirty minutes of discussion of the ensuring of a new Emperor after it finished Dana left stating that she will meet the Nobles in the discussed place tomorrow.
After splitting up from Kaiden and the other Lords, Dana decided her next destination is to talk with old man Zhao!
She will ask old man Zhao assistance in a part of her plan as well, as he was the only individual which she could think of which could get the Azure Emperor to gather his Houtian Cultivator subordinates, also Dana hadn't seen the old man in a while and as she has returned from her hunt of the Earth Wyrm's there is no doubt the old man would want to speak to her.
