"What are you saying? He will die if he keeps this going. Just sitting on the throne alone will give him the curse. He won't be able to handle it." Li Tian, who was on the side, said.
"He will not die. He will not get the curse. Do you not trust me? I have thousands of years more experience than you fools. Do you not think that I would have a way to handle the curse?" Liu Man scoffed.
"You have a way to handle the curse of the king?" Liu Qian's face shone as he thought of the possibilities. If the curse was gone, then Liu Feng would be on the throne for years to come. The entire world could be for the taking if such a terrifying king was at the helm of the Tiandu Kingdom.
"No. I do not. He does." Liu Man didn't even attempt to lie. It was beneath him.
"And you believed him?" Liu Ling Tian raised his eyebrows.
"You may have observed him for a long time, but I was with him, by his side during his most crucial times. The moment he dies, I die as well. And the moment I die, he does as well. A contract of equals. That was what he have together. I will not let anything happen to him, and he will do the same to me. If you want to pass, then I will have to battle you, because he will have to become king today." Liu Man said, getting up now.
He was not the slightest bit afraid of this genius from the ancient realm. He had seen thousands of geniuses before, and none of them stood a chance before him.
"Sect master! We have a problem! There are people at the front lines. Other powers have appeared!" A large shout came as a guard rushed through the open doors.
Liu Ling Tian frowned as he turned around to see what was happening.
Tian Jiang had long gotten out of the crater that he made for himself.
"What happened? Who is here?" Tian Jiang asked, dusting off his clothes. He was not ashamed of losing to Liu Ling Tian in a single move. He was at this same position a long time ago.
Liu Ling Tian was someone from the Ancient Realm. Even there, he wasn't the low rungs. He was someone from the top who came here to hunt down the dragon that was Long Xian.
There was nothing shameful in losing to Liu Ling Tian.
"I do not know, Sect Master! They claim to be the Zen Family. I have never heard of them, but they have dozens of Soul Evolution Stage cultivators! The Handu Kingdom seems to know them, because they have started fighting the moment that they laid eyes upon each other!" The guard said.
"The Zen family? This is concerning. I didn't think that the Zen family would come out so early." Tian Jiang's face was serious. He growled as a sword appeared in his hands.
It was the Imperial Artifact of the Tiandu Sect.
"I will let him live for a day. After he dies, the crown prince will have to take the throne." Tian Jiang growled as he hovered, going straight through the doors.
"Elders. Come with me. We have to defend the palace. And Tian Xin, if you have any remaining feelings for the Tian family, then-"
"Don't you dare say anything to her. You were her grand uncle, and you allowed her to be imprisoned in that hell hole for years. You do not have the right to say anything to her." Liu Ling Tian growled.
"The only reason that you are still alive if because she made me promise that I would not fall into a path of revenge. Don't forget that when all of this is settled, I will be there exacting payment for all that you have done to her and my family." He growled.
Tian Jiang was unfazed though.
"This is the royal family! We do not operate like a normal banner. And the person that you should be looking at is Tian Long. He already left the world. You are always welcome to go to the yellow springs to meet him there." Tian Jiang scoffed as he disappeared.
The elders of the Tiandu Sect also disappeared and the only ones who remained were those from the Cai family, only the allies of Liu Feng.
"That went much better than I expected. I thought that they would attack us first. The Zen family or whatever came at the right time." Liu Qian chuckled as he sighed with relief.
"There is nothing good about the arrival of the Zen family. It only means that there are more people who are going to try and take the throne. I didn't know that my brother died. When did you plan on telling me this?" Tian Xin said, looking at her husband.
"He didn't care enough. None of us did. All this time, he was focusing on trying to get to you. It only became easier because of his death. You should be happy that prick is dead." Liu Qian said.
"He is still my brother." Tian Xin sighed.
"I don't know why you still care for him. He isn't the same person you know. Ever since he met Long Xian, he changed." Liu Qian shook his head.
"Ah! It looks like all of you have some free time, since you are able to chit chat." Liu Man interrupted.
He was back on the ground, calmly sitting.
"Since you have the free time, why don't you help this son of yours out a little? He needs another twenty hours to refine the throne. To survive till then, the enemies outside need to be handled. Now how will those fools be able to handle dozens of Soul Evolution Stage cultivators on their own, I wonder." Liu Man said.
