Chapter 243 - Claim The Throne

'She is alive!'

Was the resounding thought in Long Yue mind as he stared fiercely at the little princess that was Dai Yun'er. While she had changed over the months, with her aura being more m_a_t_u_r_e and slightly fierce, she still looked the same.

'That means, the assassins, didn't get her.' Thought Long Yue as his mind began churning.

He still recalls, when they were running towards the port to get a ship and head off toward the Douluo continent.

But they were all intercepted by assassins, who were strong enough to kill off the guards around them.

It was only because he stayed back that Dai Yun'er was able to head off to the port and into the ship.

But that was all he knew, as he wasn't sure if some of the assassins slip past him to get on the ship and kill her.

As he was too focus on taking on all of the assassins while staying alive, to pay attention. It was only after he defeated that he was able to go check up on her but he found the port was empty.

With no boats or ship insight.

Some of the royal fraction thought she was captured, while others thought she died but Long Yue and the rest hoped she escaped.

'But why is she here?' Thought Long Yue as he furrowed his brows.

It wasn't just him but the others around who were looking at this little princess in both confusion and slight dismay. As they all knew her presence wouldn't amount to anything but more pressure on the royal family.

'Sister! Why did you come out now!' Thought Dai Yueyan in slight dismay.

Yet as if she couldn't read the mood or didn't care, Dai Yun'er look toward the Ceremonial Lord who was staring at her.

"Your grace is the debate of who will be the substitute emperor still going on?" Questioned Dai Yun'er with a stoic look.

"U-Uh. Yes! It's little princess, we're just going to start the debate."Said the Ceremony Leader, who as caught off guard by the question.

It wasn't just him but everyone else as they all looked at Dai Yun'er in a puzzling matter. While some of them narrowed their eyes while thinking.

'Could she have found En Ci?' Thought Dai Yueyan as a breath of welcome relief was slowly pulsing through him.

If his little sister was able to find En Ci, then things would come to a close and everything will be fine.

As not even those Imperial Officials will be able to go against the main pillar of the empire, plus it would make sense why she came back.

The Imperial Official also thought of this, as some of them had their eyes narrowed and the rest was revealing a complicated look.

As it wasn't like they wouldn't be delighted if En Ci came back, as at least he knew how to look after the empire.

"Your grace can anyone in the royal family be the substituting Emperor?" Questioned Dai Yun'er while ignoring the looks she was getting.

"Yes, anyone in the royal family can be. Of course, there are exceptions, like one who has great merit in this empire."Said the Ceremony Lord as if he was trying to hint something to Dai Yun'er.

"I see, thank you, your grace." Said Dai Yun'er as a faint smile appeared on her face before she shifted her gaze to the jeweled crown in his hand.

With a deep breath, Dai Yun'er's smile turned into an ice-cold look with determination pulsing through her eyes.

"I Dai Yun'er, the only daughter of the Emperor Dai Tianling. Will take on the role of the acting Emperor."Said Dai Yun'er causing the whole room to fall silent.

After saying she began to walk forward, in no rush as the only sound could be heard was her steps. It was only after a few seconds that the royal hall turned into an uproar, as both the royal and imperial official fraction began shouting.

"You dare!"

"What! Little girl what kind of joking are you spewing!"

"Do you think this is a game? Are you trying to rebel!"

Yet as if she didn't hear any of them, Dai Yun'er kept on walking without a care in the world as she headed for the Ceremony Leader.

"Little princess, you shouldn't say such random things." Said one of the Title Douluo as he steps out and intentionally blocked her way.

"Back off!" Roared Dai Yueyan as he got ready to pounce over but he went stiff as he saw all of the Imperial Officials staring at him.

'Sister!'

"Poor prince, to have a wicked sister like you." Said the Title Douluo with a shake of his head.

"All who block my way will be killed." Said Dai Yun'er without a change in her tone or expression as she continued forward.

"You dare to threaten me. Little princess, it seems you need to be punished."Said Title Douluo with a sneer as he dashes forward, causing everyone's expression to change.

"Stop!" Shrieked one of the Imperial Officials as he knew it wouldn't be good for anyone to have the princess harm.

As this was still the daughter of Emperor Tianling! The daughter that he spoiled and doted on, more than the crown prince Dai Yueyan.

The grave repercussions that would follow if something happened to her in broad daylight were something none of them could handle. As if the Title Douluo didn't hear the officials, he continued onward with his palm moving forward.

"Sister!"

"Yun'er!"

Yet in the next moment, a golden spear broke through the royal hall door. Before piercing through the Title Douluo head and nailing him on one of the pillars.

Everyone fell silent as they all saw the nailed body that was leaking blood, with the person's expression being one of terrible shock.

"Who dares!" Shouted one of the soldiers in the Imperial Official camp as he dashed forward.

But then his body went stiff before he was pierced through by a trident that broke through the roof. Then another person was killed by a seven-colored spear that broke through the earth and pierced through his head.

Silence!

Dai Yun'er kept on walking as if nothing had happened, causing some of the people around her to suck in a cold breath. As they all tried to figure out what was happening and where were these spears coming from.

As Dai Yun'er made her way past the midsection of the hall, some of the eyes of those on the Royal and Imperial fraction flash.

Within an instant, countless people pounced on Dai Yun'er causing those in the Imperial and Royal fraction to be shocked.

Yet in the next moment, a brilliant flash of silvery light lit up the room before they all died in the next instant, becoming a headless corpse.

"W-What is going on!" Shouted one of the Imperial Officials as he stared wide-eyed at the display in front.

It wasn't just him, but everyone in the room was shocked at what happened to all of the people who tried to hurt the little princess. They were instantly killed, without being able to fight back and in such a werid way too.

'Too many.' Thought one of the Title Douluo as he felt a cold shiver reverberate through his body.

He was able to see countless figures appear behind the people who wanted to pounce on Dai Yun'er. He also witnesses them decapitating them, where one swung a silver spear, the other brandished a glittering sword and the other two eradicated them with their hand.

He wasn't the only one who was able to catch the dreadful sight of this, as all of the people above Title Douluo expression were grim.

Such a display even caused them to turn stiff, as they only continued watching the actions of the little princess.

"Ceremony Lord, the crown if you will." Said Dai Yun'er as she slightly bends down as she waited for the lord to crown her.

The Ceremony Lord was too shocked to properly respond, as he would have never thought things would play out like this. He genuinely thought everything would be like all of the other times, with arduous arguing that was going nowhere.

Yet to think the royal hall would turn into a hall with headless corpses lying around.

It was only after one of his assistants shook him that he got his bearing and realizes that everyone was staring at him.

'Do I crown her?' Thought Ceremony Lord before gazing thoughtfully at Dai Yun'er who was still bowing, with her lovely head in front.

'Ahh, whatever. At the very least the debate will end.' Thought the Ceremony Lord with a sigh as he gently placed the crown on Dai Yun'er's head before stepping back.

"Thank you, your grace." Said Dai Yun'er with a faint smile as the jeweled crown shined upon her head.

To the sight of everyone, they all watched the little princess walk towards the grand throne that was at the end of the room.

As she got close to the grand throne, someone's voice rang out.

"Do you dare? Do you actually dare to sit upon the throne, when you haven't earned it?"

Dai Yun'er didn't turn towards the voice, but she did stop for a moment before letting out a small laugh.

"I am my father's daughter." Said Dai Yun'er as her charming smile began to grow before with a flash, she appeared in front of the throne and sat down with her leg crossed.

"So why wouldn't I dare?"

"Good words, Yun'er." A voice rang out causing all of the people to move their gaze all around as they tried finding the owner.

Yet in the next moment, a brilliant silvery flash appeared in the room. Then to the shock of the fractions, people miraculously appeared all around Dai Yun'er.

They all wore black suits with some of the girls wearing a black dress. They were all lined up below Dai Yun'er with their back facing the fractions of each side.

Whether it be the Royal Family or the Imperial Officials Fractions, they were all shocked at the appearance of these people.

Yet this didn't stop them from realizing these random people were able to infiltrate there empire.

"Capture them!" Shouted one of the Imperial Officials causing both the army men and the soul masters to act.

Yet in the next second, all of the people who moved all staggered as a mighty wave of spiritual power swept through the room. Before they all fell on the ground, with their body twitching and mind shivering.

"I do hope you guys will not do anything else stupid." Said one of the men in black, with a pleasant smile causing the people to tremble.

"...The Amorous Douluo, Zang Xin."Said Huang Zhengyang causing everyone's expression to change.

As they all started to properly recognize the people in the black suit, from their past legend. They all knew about the Top Soul Masters of the Douluo Continent.

Why are they here? How did they get here without the notice of the watchers? Was this an invasion?

"Princess...Did you bring them here?"Questioned the Ceremony Lord after a bit as he slightly trembles from the people in front of him.

"Yes, I did."

"After all, they are my party."
