Chapter 157: Ascension of the Crimson Dragon
"Father, where has Father gone?"
"To another world, but in the future, I will definitely find him," Yang Chen said firmly.
"Then, what should I do now?" the Crimson Dragon asked.
"Remember, you are now the ruler of a continent. If you have any questions, ask yourself, not others!" Yang Chen said coldly. "Only by becoming strong can you reclaim everything you lost. As long as you are strong, you can find your father, bring back the Chi Family members, and heal your grandfather!"
"I understand!" the Crimson Dragon said resolutely.
"I see that you still do not understand," Yang Chen said coldly.
The Crimson Dragon paused for a moment and then declared, "Let it be known that three days from now, I will ascend to the throne." Yang Chen nodded in appreciation.
"I hope you can stay and assist me during my coronation!" the Crimson Dragon requested.
"My heart is not here," Yang Chen replied. "But can you stay to witness my coronation ceremony?" the Crimson Dragon asked.
Yang Chen hesitated for a moment and then said, "Alright." He then left the palace and returned to the military camp three thousand meters away in Tianle City.
"Gather!" Three minutes later,
"Let it be known that all troops are to head towards Heavenly Continent, Tianxin City! Within four days, occupy the four surrounding cities with Tianxin City as the center!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Lu Ying!"
"I am here." Lu Ying stepped forward and knelt on the ground.
"To eliminate the Rebel King Huang Shan, Lu Ying has made an indelible contribution. I grant you the position of leader of the Assassination Corps." Yang Chen commanded.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lu Ying replied respectfully.
"Eagle Tian Yi, Li Mu, go to Heavenly Continent and make arrangements. On July Fourteenth, I will establish the nation and ascend the throne!" Yang Chen instructed.
"Your Majesty, July Fourteenth is when the gates of hell open. It is indeed inappropriate to establish a nation then." Eagle Tian Yi objected.
"What is there to be concerned about? The gates of hell open to welcome the Demon God! Follow my orders." Yang Chen said sternly.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eagle Tian Yi conceded.
On July Tenth, in Tian Le City, the ceremony for the ascension of the Crimson Dragon took place. Yang Chen appeared before everyone with Zhu Que and the others, Lin Mu Yu and Yao Tongtian.
"Brother-in-law, I heard you will ascend the throne in four days?" Fu Tengfei said.
"That's right. At that time, you will return to Heavenly Continent with me, how about that?" Yang Chen smiled as he spoke.
"That sounds good. I believe my father won't say anything to me." Fu Tengfei replied happily.
"Is your sister doing well?" Yang Chen inquired.
"My sister is doing well. I heard from my father that she broke through to the Dou Jun realm last year; she should be around two-star Dou Jun by now." Fu Tengfei said.
"If your sister is well, then I can rest easy." Yang Chen let out a slight sigh of relief.
"Brother-in-law, Sister has been waiting for you. She hasn't seen anyone for nearly four years. Even when Sister Luo Xi came to visit last time, she didn't come out," Fu Tengfei said.
"Oh? Xi'er, did you go to see Ling'er?" Yang Chen asked.
"I brought a gift for Sister Ling'er, but unfortunately, I didn't get to see her in person," Luo Xi replied.
"Understood," Yang Chen nodded, his gaze shifting away from Luo Xi's neck. He and a few others blended into the crowd, not appearing before the Red Dragon as they watched the Red Dragon ascend the throne. In three days, Tianle City had built a staircase that was nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine steps high.
"The auspicious time has arrived!" a ceremonial officer announced loudly.
"Your Majesty, please..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The war drums sounded, echoing through the heavens and earth. The Red Dragon, dressed in royal robes, slowly walked out of the palace and approached the Fengshan platform, where all ceremonial sounds ceased.
The Red Dragon respectfully bowed and said, "By the mandate of heaven, I ascend the throne today to become emperor and perform the Fengshan ceremony."
He then stepped onto the first step of the staircase. "Boom!" A drum sounded! "May my empire prosper and its people live in peace!"
The Red Dragon stepped onto the second step. "Boom!" Another drum sounded. "May my empire flourish and its people thrive!"
"Boom!" "May my empire's military be strong and valiant!"
"Boom!" An hour later, the Red Dragon finally reached the nine thousand nine hundred ninety-ninth step and declared, "I, by heaven's mandate, become emperor; let the entire nation express their gratitude!"
"Bai!" the ceremonial officer shouted loudly. The Red Dragon stood on the high platform and bowed respectfully, followed by all those witnessing the ceremony. Of course, Yang Chen and others, along with non-Jia Shi citizens, were exceptions.
"Another bow!" The Red Dragon bowed again, and the crowd followed suit.
"Three bows!" The third bow was made.
After the Red Dragon stood firm, Li Si shouted, "Ceremony completed!" Then, standing hundreds of meters above the ground, the Red Dragon took out a decree from his storage space and said, "Today, I ascend the throne as Emperor under Destiny. Feeling the Heaven's Will, I confer the title of Prince of Leisure upon Yang Chen, the leader of the Shadow Kill Legion, granting him control over the entire Southern Territory!"
"What? A princely title? Control over the entire Southern Territory!?"
"What a bold move, what a bold move."
"What do you think Yang Chen should do to express his gratitude? Should he call Your Majesty? Ha ha."
"Where is the Prince of Leisure?" Li Si shouted loudly.
"Sky Tower, you go." Yang Chen said as he tossed a purple-gold token from the Demon God Ring.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Yao Tongtian respectfully replied after receiving it. Yao Tongtian then flashed away from another location, holding up the Shadow Kill Imperial Order and shouted, "The Emperor is in the Heavenly Continent and could not attend the grand ceremony of Emperor Red Dragon in Xuan Continent. It is truly unfortunate. However, with the Emperor's grant of the Shadow Kill Imperial Order, it is as if His Majesty is present!"
"Long live Your Majesty!" One-third of those present immediately knelt before Yao Tongtian.
"Rise." Yao Tongtian commanded.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The Red Dragon's pupils constricted, and he shook his head helplessly.
"I, Yao Tongtian, thank Emperor Red Dragon on behalf of Prince of Leisure." Yao Tongtian stood straight and said.
"Bold! Why do you not kneel to express your gratitude?" an eunuch scolded angrily.
"I have been having trouble with my legs recently; how can I kneel?" Yao Tongtian replied coldly, unleashing his peak ninth-level demon beast strength.
"The Tongtian Cult Master does not need to kneel due to leg troubles; this is indeed my oversight," the Red Dragon's voice came at an opportune moment. "Proclaim my decree: from now on, the army of Jia Shi Dynasty shall not enter the thirty-six cities of the southern border. Those who disobey will be executed!"
"Thank you, Emperor Red Dragon." Yao Tongtian retracted his aura and slightly bowed. Li Si immediately stepped forward and handed a golden token to Yao Tongtian, which was engraved with the words 'Leisure'. After receiving it, Yao Tongtian leaped away directly.
"Brother-in-law, is this Crimson Dragon trying to set you up?" Fu Tengfei said.
"It won't happen again; he has compromised," Yang Chen smiled and said. "Alright, we've finished our business. Let's head to the Heavenly Continent."
"Whatever Brother-in-law says goes."
"I'll listen to Brother Yang."
"Wherever Chen goes, Xier will go." Then, the five of them disappeared into the crowd. The Crimson Dragon on the steps shook his head bitterly, no longer having any thoughts.
Slaughter City,
"Sky Tower, from now on you will guard the Southern Territory. Make sure to solidify the Heavenly Teachings in the Southern Territory well. Later, you can come to the Heavenly Continent to assist me. The Three Great Sacred Lands, Shadow Wind Dynasty, and Refining Qi Guild are all formidable forces," Yang Chen said.
"Yes, Your Majesty. When the day of founding arrives, I will come back," Yao Tongtian replied.
"Indeed, that day will be a splendid banquet," Yang Chen said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, this is Xiaoyao Wang's token."
"Do I still need it? From now on, the Southern Territory is entrusted to you." With a wave of his hand, the golden token turned to dust.
