“In Yan Country, Jinyao 36th year’s imperial examinee, Yongan 7th year’s auxiliary minister, Deputy Grand Secretary, and Great Tutor.”
“This humble official, Song Heqing, has the honor to meet the True Dragon!”
The elder in an elegant robe had a strong voice that belied his aged appearance. His eyes were full of vitality, and he was visibly excited.
These titles seemed to narrate the scenes he had experienced in the past.
Yan Country?
Auxiliary minister and Great Tutor.
Good heavens, isn’t this an equivalent to a prime minister?
Zhao Huai looked at the rows of people kneeling before him, his eyes showing surprise, and he was unable to react.
He remembered meeting the elder in the Demon Prison and noticed that he was not like a common person due to his unusual temperament.
At that time, he was guessing the old man’s origin and even thought of rescuing him after clearing the Blackwind Cave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the situation here was resolved, the old man had managed to escape on his own, clearly possessing some skills.
More importantly,
He was a veteran official of Yan Country?!
How incredible is that?!
Zhao Huai couldn’t help but wonder,
There must be remnants of Yan Country, a once great empire that could not just vanish overnight. However, ever since the end of the Xia Country’s rebellion, he has not found any trace of Yan Country.
As if Yan Country had already been forgotten. As he thought about it now, the rapid suppression of the rebellion back then might have been due to the fact that they had decided to stay low-key.
But now, he accidentally took control of the Demon Prison and just happened to meet an old servant of Yan Country inside?
What a coincidence.
Could they be frauds?
Zhao Huai’s first thought was to suspect a prank.
He raised an eyebrow and prodded:
“You claim to be a veteran official of Yan Country, what proof do you have?”
Upon hearing the question, Song Heqing shakily took out a blood-stained jade token from his chest. The jade token glowed red, bearing the character “Xiang” (responsible) engraved on it.
“The Yan Country Prime Minister’s seal, forged with blood, is indeed genuine.” Yin Nanyu, the Holy Maiden of the Raven Sect, showed a hint of surprise.
Of all the people who were kneeling, only she stood apart from the crowd, standing in her original position.
Her eyes flickered at times, glancing between the elder in the elegant robe and Zhao Huai, as if pondering something unknown.
Just at this moment,
Zhao Huai’s black ring emitted another burst of divine light, as if responding to the elder’s seal, which left Zhao Huai in amazement.
He was completely unaware of what had happened, and it occurred so abruptly.
It seemed as if there was some connection between these two items, forming a spiritual network that allowed him to feel the link between the seal and the black ring.
He carefully considered the situation, and it couldn’t possibly be the black ring itself. There must be something inside the black ring that was causing such a reaction.
Things like pills, Talisman Inscriptions, spiritual swords, and spiritual stones were, of course, ruled out.
That could only mean…
Zhao Huai quickly reached a conclusion and exclaimed in astonishment.
could it be the white Jade Imperial Dragon sear
Song Heqing apparently felt the connection between the two items as well, and he shouted out in disbelief with his aged eyes:
“This is… the Yan Country’s Dragon Seal!”
“You were the last…”
At the halfway point of his sentence, Song Heqing solemnly bowed again and said:
“This humble official pays respects to the Royal Crown Prince!”
As soon as the elder’s words were spoken, the surrounding onlookers showed shock across their faces, including all the Immortal Yearning Sect disciples, guards, cultivators, and the Raven Sect’s Holy Maiden Yin Nanyu.
Many sect disciples couldn’t believe their ears, gaping wide as if they had heard something impossible:
“Did I hear that right — the Crown Prince of Yan Country?!”
“What? The senior is the Crown Prince of Yan Country? Seriously?!”
“Didn’t the Crown Prince of Yan Country die back then? The Xia’s Government Office personally released the news!”
“Yeah, wasn’t the imperial dragon seal of Yan Country lost? The Emperor of the
Xia searched for so long and never found it!”
“So it was with the Crown Prince! ”
“That’s right! All the royal family members were beheaded back then. Even if there were any of Yan Country’s royal bloodlines among the commoners, their lineage would not be pure!”
Elder Mu and Chu Longxiang exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
They had originally thought that Zhao Huai was just an illegitimate offspring of Yan Country’s royal family. Even if his bloodline was not pure, it wouldn’t affect his status.
Since he could revive Yan Country’s national fortune, his extraordinary talent was proof enough. His status was definitely secure, and many Immortal Sects would come personally to escort him.
But they never expected that they had still underestimated his identity’s value.
This was Yan Country’s last Crown Prince!
A legitimate descendant of the Yan royal family!
Elder Mu could already imagine that once this news got out, it would surely create an immense storm in the mortal world! This was the Crown Prince of Yan Country!
No one could have a purer bloodline!
Who had a purer bloodline than a Crown Prince? If there was, Elder Mu would be the first to beat them to death with a shoe!
Keep in mind; this man’s father was the Emperor of Yan Country.
If not for the Xia Empire’s sudden emergence and rise, he would have been the legitimate heir to the throne under normal circumstances! “Greetings to Your Highness, the Crown Prince!”
‘Greetings to Your Highness, the Crown Prince!”
“Greetings to Your Highness, the Crown Prince!”
After hearing the elder’s words again, the people behind him quickly reacted and shouted in unison.
As people continued bowing to Zhao Huai, he frowned and found it quite uncomfortable.
Although he was a Crown Prince, he had never been worshipped by so many people before.
When he first arrived, he had to sneak out of the Imperial City through a dog hole.
Facing the sudden situation, Zhao Huai felt quite helpless.
All he wanted was to cultivate peacefully and pursue the Immortal Method, seeking the path of immortality, and enjoy a carefree life..
