Dongfang Yan was reluctant to become the Heavenly Emperor, yet he agreed to do so for me. 0
 
I held Dongfang Yan's hand and said to Dongfang Shu, "Let's go take a look at the camp." 0
 
Dongfang Shu was momentarily stunned, then he burst into joy, repeatedly saying, "Sure, sure, sure." 0
 
The Crimson Flame Army once had hundreds of thousands of Celestial Soldiers, but now there were fewer than ten thousand left. 0
 
Moreover, many of these soldiers were older, with the remaining ones being the elite. 0
 
Dongfang Shu led us to the deepest part of the camp. 0
 
He pointed into the distance and said, "Look, this is my Spirit Beast Legion." 0
 
I looked over and saw hundreds of spirit beasts drinking by the lake; they were large and imposing. 0
 
Dongfang Shu sighed, "It's a pity that these spirit beasts lack suitable spirit weapons and mounts." 0
 
Dongfang Yan looked at him as if he were foolish. 0
 
Ignoring Dongfang Yan, Dongfang Shu continued, "If we want to arm them to the teeth, it will require a lot of spirit stones." 0
 
I understood; he was asking for my help. 0
 
I turned to Dongfang Yan and asked, "Can we help them?" 0
 
Dongfang Yan nodded, "If you say we should help, then we will." 0
 
I looked at Dongfang Shu and said earnestly, "My family has a cave full of spirit stones and magical artifacts. Since Brother Yan is willing to help you, I will offer all of these to you." 0
 
Dongfang Shu was taken aback for a moment before joyfully exclaiming, "Great! Nephew-in-law, from now on I’ll stick with you!" 0
 
However, Dongfang Yan was not pleased. "What nephew-in-law? Murong Yi gave me that title; it’s not for you." 0
 
 
"Dongfang Shu" laughed and said, "Yes, yes, you're right." 0
 
In just a few days, a new batch of spirit beast mounts arrived at the camp. 0
 
These spirit beasts were quite curious about their new companions, constantly familiarizing themselves with each other's spiritual energy. 0
 
The soldiers of the Crimson Flame Army were also very pleased, petting the newly arrived spirit beasts and laughing heartily. 0
 
They rubbed against the spirit beasts' manes as if they were interacting with beloved friends. 0
 
We spent some leisurely days in the camp. 0
 
However, such days were bound to come to an end. 0
 
The plan was progressing smoothly, and it was time to move on to the next step. 0
 
The South Sea Dragon King had finally fallen from power. 0
 
The position of Heavenly Emperor seemed to have been decided. 0
 
The Demon King was stirring restlessly, and preparations for the coronation ceremony had already begun. 0
 
But just then, Dongfang Yan emerged as a strong competitor for the title of Heavenly Emperor. 0
 
Dongfang Yan was originally the rightful heir after the Heavenly Emperor. Once the Heavenly Emperor passed away, he would naturally become the legitimate successor. 0
 
The Demon King was shocked. 0
 
He was even more astonished to realize that the lowly servant he had underestimated was actually the Son of the Heavenly Emperor. 0
 
He thought he could bully Dongfang Yan at will, only to find himself punished by Dongfang Yan with twenty bolts of heavenly lightning in his capacity as the Son of the Heavenly Emperor. 0
 
 
He angrily said, "Aren't you powerless? How did you become the Son of the Heavenly Emperor overnight?" 0
 
Dongfang Yan replied expressionlessly, "I am the Son of the Heavenly Emperor. Do I need any power to punish you for your disrespect?" 0
 
The Demon King was left speechless. 0
 
Indeed, Dongfang Yan was the Son of the Heavenly Emperor, and he naturally had the authority to punish him. 0
 
Dongfang Yan entered the Eastern Palace as the Crown Prince, and I followed him into the palace. 0
 
Most of the court officials were aligned with the Demon King, leaving Dongfang Yan without support. 0
 
I once told him, " Brother Yan, once we enter the palace, we will be exposed to the Demon King's scrutiny at every turn." 0
 
Dongfang Yan shook his head. "No, Yi, as long as it's what you want, I will make it happen." 0
 
I sighed and fell silent. 0
 
On the first day Dongfang Yan took over the Celestial Palace, someone poisoned his food. 0
 
Fortunately, I used a magical artifact to detect the poison. 0
