Chapter 1844 Earring

Chapter 1844 Earring

The empire's soldiers acted immediately upon the orders of Long Huan, the oldest remaining descendant with royal blood. Most people listened to Pearl, but those who didn't listened to Long Huan.

It was either that or leaving the army altogether, which many did as well.

Using the empire's army, they began spreading not just the news about the war and their new leaders, they also started quelling any and all problems that might have arisen in the period of war.

There were many cities that had decided to rise up against the Emperor after learning everything they did, wanting answers. Then there were places where the citizens of that city had attacked the city officials for either not showing what was being shown through the newsboards, or trying to threaten them into not going to help against the Emperor in the war.

These uprisings needed to be quelled in peaceful ways, so the Oathbreakers and the many new additions to their rank chose to do just that.

Aside from that, the soldiers also had the task of relocating the many displaced individuals because of the war. Thankfully, the war itself had happened just in the Dragon Capital, and that too on the side of the Dragon Capital where there were no residents.

Even so, many of the people had to leave that area, and most of their houses and properties had been destroyed. While it would be hard to compensate them, they still needed to be taken care of.

Those that ran away from the city weren't very far away. They were gathered around the grass plains about 50 kilometers away from the city, waiting for the war to be over.

The soldiers went to help just them.

Long Hanjue, along with his mother, and many of the others who worked or lived in the palace were found on the other side of the Dragon Capital, toward the north.

They were brought back, and Long Huan met his younger brother for the first time then.

Long Huan couldn't believe how similar his younger brother looked to Long Fangyu. Not everything was the same, but there was a resemblance.

"Father is dead," Long Huan told his brother. "He was slain in battle, killed by the King of the Southern Continent. I aided him in that."

Long Hanjue remained silent for a while, giving only a single nod in response.

"Do you hate me for it?" Long Huan asked. "I helped father get murdered. Do you despise me for it?"

He looked to both the empress and his brother.

"Biologically, the Emperor was my father," Long Hanjue said. "But the truth was, he never truly was my father. He never held me in his arms. He never taught me anything. He didn't even look at me when we met."

Scarlet flew next to Alex, holding his hands with her human hands.

Alex felt pulsing energy move into him, healing energy. Scarlet was directly providing it to him without using Phoenix fire.

Bai Jingshen looked at the corpse before him with his human eyes. "So this was the man that killed my Granddaughter?" he asked.

"And grandmother," Pearl added. "He killed my grandfather and grandmother too."

Bai Jingshen's eyes blazed with fury upon hearing the words. "I see," he said. "Then I cannot have him die just like that."

The beastman pulled his right earring and placed it in his palm before him. As he did, the earring began glowing.

Suddenly, a monumental aura erupted from the earring, pouring out with bright light that caused everyone but Bai Jingshen to reel back in surprise.

Alex barely managed to watch it after a moment, activating his Demon Eyes to the most he could at the moment.

What he saw with his Demon Eyes active sent shock reeling through his mind.

The energy that had been produced by Bai Jingshen's earring consisted of almost all elements, including space, time, and many more that he simply could not understand.

It was an amalgamation of everything out there, and it slowly fell into the body before them. The light disappeared all of a sudden and they all saw the Dragon Emperor's corpse slowly gain life.

Almost as though the Dragon Emperor was coming back to life, his body gained muscle and his skin grew color.

And yet the corpse was still a corpse, bisected still.

Then suddenly, Alex's mind reeled in shock as he sensed a small spiritual impression coming from the corpse.

Bai Jingshen clutched onto the ring and did something. As soon as he did it, a spirit with the body of the Dragon Emperor flew out of the corpse, going directly into Bai Jingshen's palm.

Bai Jingshen caught the spirit and quickly stored it in his Soul space. With the spirit gone, the corpse returned to its previous state, with a shrunken body and pale skin.

Alex, Pearl, and even Scarlet watched in wide shock as they could not understand what had just happened. for new novels
