Chapter 380 Coronation
Two Days Later,
The Capital was in a different mood that what it was in just a week earlier. The tension was gone.
The reason? Everyone knew that there was a new king in town. The enemies were fended off, and now, there was a new protector of the realm.
And it was someone that they had never heard of before. It wasn't the crown prince that had become the king. It wasn't even someone from the royal family. It was someone else.
It was the son of the dragon princess, according to some. The son of the man who shook the capital decades ago.
But one thing was sure. The throne was safe, for now.
Some were happy, but many were writhing in anger.
Crash!
"You bastards! I asked you one question! ONE QUESTION! It was a simple one. How long does it take to refine the throne. And all of you tole me the exact same thing. It takes a week. And yet, look at what happened!"
Long Xian was enraged. And his anger was felt throughout the entire Ding Family.
"Now, the throne is no longer in reach. And he has control of the Terracotta Army. How many Soul Evolution Stage experts is that? You don't even know. You know nothing." Long Xian slammed the wall nearest to him, caving the entire wall.
A hole was created in his chambers, and he could see what was in the next room.
"Forgive me, Young Master Xian. It wasn't the fault of our information collection. This was something that has stumped even those within the imperial palace." The family head was in the room with Long Xian, trying his best to calm Long Xian down.
"Now, I have to wait until reinforcements arrive before I can handle that bastard Liu Ling Tian. I can't believe it. I have to wait even more time." Long Xian cursed.
The Family head's face was drained of blood.
More time? His family was falling apart just because of the little time that this arrogant prick had spent here. His grand daughter had committed suicide and their family was forced to give this guest offerings like they were a small village trying to appease a god.
He couldn't do this for more time. He couldn't wait for another month. Not like this.
"As you wish, Young Master. I will go and see what I can do." He said as he disappeared.
"Goddamn pricks, all of these." Long Xian smirked as he fell into his bed.
In the palace,
The entire palace was rebuilt in just a day and half. That was the power of cultivation. With the power of Qi, they could easily make sure that all of the cracks were sealed, and it was like a fight had not even occurred.
The only problem were the cracks that Liu Ling Tian had created outside the palace. The gardens were laid waste to, that was for sure. They were beyond repair.
It would take some time for them to return to the level that they were in just a week before.
"Where is the king?" an old man appeared and asked one of the many guards who were standing in a line.
"In the chambers, Advisor. He is… renovating the chambers." The guard said.
Sigh.
"Based on what he saw in that place, I would be surprised if he didn't." The old man nodded as he walked to the royal chambers.
He knocked on the doors.
"Enter."
Liu Feng's cold voice came from inside.
The old man opened the doors and saw that the entire room, which was supposed to be completely studded with the most exorbitant jewels and treasures, was sparse. There was nothing here.
There were people inside, setting a bed down. This was big, but again, without decor.
"Your Majes-"
"I don't care for honorifics. I was not born snotty. Tell me what happened. There must be a big reason that the Imperial Advisor himself came here right?" Liu Feng cut him short.
"Indeed. I am here because the coronation is ready. Invites had been sent out, and everyone arrived. The entire kingdom will be here to witness the coronation of the greatest king to eve-"
"Again, I am not in the mood for this. The coronation is ready? Is everyone ready in the throne room?" Liu Feng asked.
"Indeed, Your Majesty. We are waiting for you. I can see that you are also ready." Tian Gan noted that Liu Feng was dressed in the Imperial robes.
Gold and red intertwining in these robes, which signified that he was the king of this place. They were majestic, and they were only worn during times of court.
This only meant that Liu Feng was also ready for the coronation.
"I was the one who was kept waiting. Fine then. Let us get this over with. The throne room? I will be there. You can go there as well. I am faster than all of you after all." Liu Feng chuckled.
"As you wish, Your Majesty." Tian Gan swiftly disappeared.
Liu Feng took one final look at the room.
"One final gift to you, Tian Xin. This shall be our parting gift and a gift that signifies our partnership." Liu Feng thought to himself.
He also swiftly disappeared from the place, leaving it completely empty.
Outside the throne room, with the doors completely ajar, a few hundred people were standing.
There were people inside as well. The ones on the thrones, they were the leaders of the major powers of the kingdom. Li Tian was there. So was Tian Jiang. Shen Qiang took one of the spots, and Cai Guo another.
Many were looking at the one spot that no one expected to fill. That was the one taken up by the Ding family. Even the Ding family head had arrived.
But a moment later, the entire place became utterly silent. They all stood up and looked to the entrance.
There was the figure of the person that they had come for today.
The King had arrived.
