Chapter 1136 Prince Crimson

"I know what I'm doing," Rocky nodded.

"What are you talking about?" Obviously, the other three had no idea what they were talking about, and Marcia didn't expect that they would understand either way.

"You three should stop pestering Basil—especially you, Lena! You are the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire. The overall situation of the empire is dire, and His Majesty needs a little more rest before he can get back to taking care of the state affairs. So, you should do your duties without fail," Marcia scolded, treating the three women like her younger sisters.

"I know! And I will! I just haven't seen Basil in a long time. I want to spend more time with him!" Lena said, pouting.

"Master, we spent the whole night studying, but we still couldn't come up with a method to cultivate together with Basil. Please give us some advice!" Sabina cut in impatiently.

"Cultivate together?" Marcia turned to Rocky, raising her brows.

He shrugged with a shy smile.

"Speaking of that, I need Basil's help to refine the Dragon Sarira. So, cultivating together is a good idea. I may be able to give you the part of the power contained in the Dragon Sarira, which may in turn help you improve your strength. In addition to that, Basil can also continue to fuse the power of the Holy Dragon Bead the same way." Marcia's eyes gleamed with excitement.

Rocky felt a dark cloud hover over him after hearing her elaborate plan. He rolled his eyes with a reluctant chuckle. He wasn't afraid of any kind of cultivation. He was hoping to speed up the process of fusing the power of the Holy Dragon Bead, but as a man, he wondered about the consequences of cultivating with all these women.

"One more thing. General Lance sent word—Isis and Nigel are on their way back to Imperial City. They will be back at the Palace City soon," Marcia added.

"That's great news," Rocky nodded with a smile and turned to look outside the window. A cool wind blew on his face. When was the last time he had some time to himself?

After another scolding from Marcia, the three women finally left Rocky alone in his Crimson Palace and went to Lena's Witch Palace.

Soon after that, he opened his Magic Spiritual Space and walked in.

He first visited Uriah, who was sprawled out on the ground with i

nnounced his return to the public, which naturally was cause for huge celebrations. The panic that had been caused due to Alston's death had vanished with the return of the emperor. The people could finally put their minds to rest.

But at the same time, the ministers and the royal members were anxious to know why the emperor had gone missing and what had happened to him during the time he was gone.

For the past two days, the emperor hadn't shown his presence in court. Except the princes, Bryant and Marcia, no one else had seen him, which aroused suspicion among the ministers and royal members. They began to suspect whether the emperor had really come back, or if his health was impaired.

So, the emperor summoned a few important ministers and the princes of the Holy Dragon Empire to his palace. Rumor was that there would be an important announcement that day, and that led to a crowd gathering in front of the palace.

As soon as the royal members and the ministers saw Rocky, they greeted him with a low bow, "Greetings, Your Royal Highness!"

Rocky was taken aback at first, and then quickly remembered that he was coronated as Prince Crimson by the emperor. Apart from that, he was also a Great General. With this privilege and status, he could easily establish an army of his own any time. It was safe to conclude that he was one of the top-ranking officials of the Holy Dragon Empire now.

And if he so willed, it would be a piece of cake for him to even become the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire.
