Standing on the roof, Caspian saw Daisy walking out of the alley and was immediately stopped by two young men in blue clothes.
As they spoke, Caspian could sense Daisy’s impatience.
However, the two young men did not seem to care about her attitude at all.
After questioning her, they finally let her leave.
Caspian’s eyes fell on the two young men.
‘So, they’re the Great Oceans Sect’s disciples… Both of them are entry-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivators.’
Caspian carefully recalled some cultivators he noticed while walking in the capital these days, and some of them were indeed wearing the blue gown.
It now appeared that it was the Great Oceans Sect’s attire.
‘There are quite a lot of people around… Thankfully, I’m prepared.’ Caspian pondered for a moment and jumped off the roof.
‘Everything will be clear in six days…’
***
On the 28th of January, the much-anticipated day finally came.
From the moment the sun appeared over the horizon, the entire Salleria’s capital city was filled with the joyous atmosphere of celebration.
The ceremony was even grander than Edgar’s official enthronement ceremony.
Taking advantage of the auspicious time, the royal chariot that Edgar rode was escorted by his guards of honor and thousands of soldiers.
They started from the imperial city and went around the capital’s inner city.
Everywhere they went, firecrackers would be fired in unison, and hundreds of flowers were scattered, revealing the atmosphere of prosperity and harmony.
By the time they returned to the imperial city, it was already noon.
The next ceremony was where Edgar sat on the imperial throne in the imperial city square as he accepted the worship of Salleria‘s officials and envoys of other countries.
Under Morris’s leadership, the entire imperial city was long decorated, showing the ambiance that a royal family should have.
At that time, what Edgar had to do was to climb up the nine steps and sit on the imperial throne under the attention of tens of thousands of people at the scene, once again feeling the taste of being at the top of the world.
Looking at the nine layers of jade steps in front of him, Edgar was excited.
For the ruler of a county, the feeling was unprecedented.
‘I’ve only dared to dream about this day for a second in the past!’ After taking a deep breath in, Edgar secretly lamented.
Even though he might not become a cultivator, the Great Oceans Sect gave him precious medicines due to their relationship with Carson.
The precious medicines could extend his lifespan and help him undergo a thoroughgoing change.
Even though Edgar was now in his fifties, he knew that his current state was stronger than in his twenties after taking the pills from the Great Oceans Sect.
Moreover, Edgar recently felt that the bottleneck of his realm showed signs of loosening.
In that way, reaching the fifth-stage True Martial Realm was no longer a dream.
Of course, all of it was the benefit of getting rid of Caspian and replacing him with Carson!
At the thought of Caspian, Edgar could not help but feel resentful.
That year, Caspian was only fifteen years old, but he already made unprecedented achievements.
Hence, there were calls for Edgar to abdicate and let Caspian ascend to the throne.
How could Edgar agree to such a request!
Just as he held a wolf by the ears, the Great Oceans Sect’s appearance and Carson’s Demon Python Form gave him another possibility.
Then, under his careful planning, that possibility became a reality.
‘Fortunately, I’ve been careful with the b*stard since he was born.
All the maids and guards around him were personally selected by me so that he could only see a glimpse of the world.
