Chapter 14 - Long's Secret
The battle for the throne in the capital had come to an end.
The night that Long Zhan received the Dragon Seal, Long Zhan was invited to the Imperial City by an emissary sent by the Imperial City Long's.
The long jade steps in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony combined with the number of stars, a total of 99 steps, extending all the way to the outside of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. On both sides were rows of jade railings, outside of which were separated, every nine steps, into two armored soldiers holding long spears, and the row of sergeants appearing all the more solemn; the main body of the hall consisted of 160 slabs of Nanhe wood. The golden roof of the hall was made of glazed roof tiles, and on both sides were tall coiling dragons and golden laurels. On both sides of the Main Palace, there were thirty-six Golden Armor Guards standing on both sides of the Main Palace. Long Zhan followed a eunuch to the outside of the Main Palace.
"The Emperor has decreed that His Highness the Crown Prince should be welcomed." An ear-piercing voice came as Long Xuan walked into the exhibition. Inside the hall, there was a cloud roof sandalwood as the beam, a crystal jade wall as the lamp, and a pearl as the curtain. Fan Jin as the base, the floor was covered with white jade, and the interior was embedded with gold beads. And in the hall, sitting on the golden dragon throne, was a king looking down on all under the heavens.
The King's body was eight feet long and his dragon face was very imposing. The wall of light was so dazzling that it was as if a dragon pattern python had wrapped itself around its body. It only revealed the dragon pattern bearskin and boots, its arms hung below its knees, and its hands were thick and powerful. The huge ring of cold light was embedded in the fingertip, and the ring made from a multicolored gem was divided between the left and right fingers. How awe-inspiring! He saw that the Son of Heaven, Long Yan, was so mighty! Beneath the dazzling purplish-gold crown, his eyes were sharp and cold, not daring to peep any further. His ears were thick and hung on both sides of the dragon's head, a blessing befitting of a king! The dragon whiskers slightly trembled, revealing the majesty of his points. It could really be said that his dragon face had appeared in the world! How awe-inspiring!
The crown prince was the successor he had personally nurtured, and the changes in cultivation and power that had occurred over the past ten years had long been formed. If the crown prince did not break through during this Large Competition, then the efforts he had made all these years would have been in vain. Fortunately, he had not chosen the wrong person, and laughed, "My son, you have already emerged victorious in the fight for the throne, and as expected, you have not disappointed this emperor.
After Long Zhan heard Long Feilong's words, he couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't think that the Emperor Dragon Feilong wasn't just telling him some matters regarding the succession of the throne, but also telling him some of the secrets of the Long's.
After Long Feilong saw him nod, he used a serious tone to speak: "Everyone knows that our Long's has Sacred Level super experts, but as for how many there are, outsiders do not know about it. In fact, no one knows either, because all the Sacred Level Warriors in our Long's s are cultivating in our Long's's small secret realm, after ten thousand of years, our Long's has already become a paradise, and our Long's has also formed a new system that is independent from the outside of this continent. Other than the main branch, this secret realm does not have the qualifications to enter, so after ten thousand years, all the direct descendants of our Long's have entered this place. The way to break through to the Sacred level is through the small secret realm. Actually, the most important function of our Imperial City is to protect the exit of the small secret realm, and the imperial throne of this Empire is only a endorsement for our Long's, and there are many other families like us in the entire continent, and many powerful sects have more strength than us, so many forces cannot be easily provoked. After you succeed the throne, you will slowly come to know about it yourself. "
Long Zhan's words gave Long Zhan a completely new understanding of this world. At the same time, he also understood Long Feilong's true meaning. He immediately nodded at Long Feilong, "This son understands."
Long Feilong looked at Long Zhan, and immediately nodded his head, and continued: En, you understand the best, your own cultivation is currently too low, and you need to increase your cultivation even faster, because there aren't many specific matters regarding the emperor, you just have to slowly think about it, and the rest, use your royal brothers' abilities, and do not easily kill them, if there is anything major, our small secret realm will come to handle it, oh, and other, the clan's secret realm has already chosen a group of guards for you, all at the Dou Zun's level, a total of twenty people, and they are basically our Long's's servants.
Long Zhan bowed towards Long Feilong, then said loudly, "This son understands, this son will take his leave."
Long Feilong nodded his head lightly as Long Zhan withdrew himself from the palace.
The next day, in the throne room, Long Feilong was sitting on the dragon throne, dressed in royal robe, looking down upon the ministers below. Long Zhan was also dressed in royal robe and sitting on the right side of Long Feilong's head, but under Long Feilong's imposing manner, he seemed to be lacking in power and might.
Long Feilong looked at Long Zhan, then straightened his body and said loudly: "The alliance already abdicated today, from today onwards, the position of emperor will be held by the crown prince, Long Zhan. Everything in the imperial court will be handled by the emperor, on this auspicious day, let him ascend the throne. "If there's nothing important, you can leave today." The eunuchs on duty sang a song, then all the civil and military ministers shouted loudly, while Long Feilong led Long Xuan out of the palace and into the palace. Today, Long Feitian had brought Long Xuan to the Long's's ancestral hall to complete the change in power. Fortunately, Long Zhan had been the crown prince for many years, so the change in power from one to the other in the Long's was very normal. This made Long Feilong let out a light breath, and Long Zhan sat on the throne of the current empire.
