Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 1877

As they flew high above the sky, clouds floated among them, and they could see the sun shining brightly.

While Rocky and Layla rode behind Rubygon, they looked down at the territory of the Shura Race. Compared to the outskirts of the Ghostly Demon Land, the land beneath them looked so barren and should not be suitable for living. Just thinking that the Shura Race was dwelling in it disappointed them.

"When my mother was the queen who ruled the Shura Race, there were still many beautiful places that could be found in our territory. But look at this. After the current royal family took over, these places were occupied by demons, turning everything into hellish ruins..." Layla heaved a deep sigh, letting out her frustrations.

"Well, in my opinion, the Shura Race deserves this. In the end, they only have themselves to blame for everything that happened. It is said that the Shura Race used to be a powerful race that worshipped deities. But later on, they became greedy and began cultivating evil skills. Now, the fate of the whole race was drastically changed." Rocky had a general understanding of the history of the Shura Race after learning some parts of it from Corey's memory. Therefore, he knew that this cruel fate was actually brought by the members of the Shura Race themselves.

"Although the words you said were unpleasant to hear, I cannot deny the truth behind them. I heard from my mother that the Shura Race has really fallen so low, but she did not talk about every specific detail. For the Shura Race, that period of history is very dark, and it cannot just be revealed to others. Otherwise, when ordinary citizens know about it, the royal family might lose the people's trust. They will be publicly humiliated and have no dignity left," Layla responded in a gloomy tone.

"Your Royal Highness, I have a question for you. If you can give me a satisfactory answer, I will help you fulfill your greatest wish..." Rocky proposed out of nowhere.

"Sure, go ahead," Layla replied calmly. In fact, she already thought that Rocky might have his own considerations about the current situation. Right now, he had the Purgatorial Tripod in his hands, so he actually had the power to control the candidates, who aspired to be the next ruler, according to his will.

"With all that is going on, do you still think that there is a need for the royal family to exist?" Rocky asked bluntly. The other main reason why Rocky asked Layla to go back to the royal family alone with him was so he could have a serious talk with her. He wanted to take advantage of this chance to figure out what was in her mind and therefore think of his next steps in carrying out his plan.

Hearing this, Layla was actually taken aback. She did not expect that Rocky would even ask such a question. After all, everyone knew that the royal family was the supreme existence that governed the Shura Race. They had ruled for thousands of years, and no one really questioned this system. It could be said that if the royal family was erased, it was also equivalent to eliminating the entire Shura Race.

"I know that you may have some reservations answering this question, but know that your response may affect the future of the entire Shura Race," Rocky sternly reminded.

"So, basically, you are saying that if I can't give you a satisfying answer, you won't help me become the ruler?" Layla asked straightforwardly. She was not the type of person who wanted to beat around the bush, so she immediately confirmed what Rocky was thinking before she gave an answer.

"To put it simply... Yes," Rocky replied.

"First of all, the royal family has been ruling the Shura Race for thousands of years, and you can say that this system is already deeply rooted in everyone. The moment the royal family ceased to exist, the force that holds the entire race would also be gone. That means that the nine major fiefs will definitely have their own kings since even you know that they cannot cooperate with each other. When this happens, the Shura Continent will plunge into an even more chaotic situation. At the same time, the human race and the spiritual race will inevitably be involved in this mess. Therefore, as for my answer, I still think that the royal family is necessary. However, several changes must take place. Even if the royal family continues to exist but the same kind of government will be implemented, then it will be pointless. Sooner or later, we will come to a dead-end and the entire continent might become extinct." Layla voiced her thoughts like the true leader that she was.
