Chapter 1034 The Emperor Of The Holy Dragon Empire Had Disappeared

"What do you mean?" The emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire felt something was wrong.

"Father, the Dragon Master Clan has already decided and there's nothing you can do about it!" Alston said bluntly.

"So, the Dragon Master Clan wants me to abdicate the throne in your favor?" The emperor immediately understood.

"I'm glad that you finally see the big picture. At once, write an imperial order stating that you will abdicate and you will grant permission for me to inherit the throne. The announcement will have to be made tomorrow. Father, this is my destiny, and this is for the future of the Holy Dragon Empire. Also, tell me how I can enter the forbidden area of the royal family. This is very important," Alston continued with a sneer.

"I can't do that. Once the spiritual treasure appears, it will certainly cause a disorder and our Holy Dragon Empire will be implicated. There will be chaos and it will destroy the Holy Dragon Empire," the emperor said in a solemn voice. His face had turned pale and there was confusion in his eyes. He was not knowledgeable about the spiritual treasure that was sealed in the forbidden area of the royal family, but he was well aware of one thing. It would cause great trouble to the Holy Dragon Empire if they tried to take it out.

"No, it won't. The patriarch gave me a promise. As long as we hand over the spiritual treasure, the Holy Dragon Empire will not be in any kind of danger. The Dragon Master Clan also pledged to give us thirty Dragon Spirit Beads every year, and they also gave me a guarantee that our Holy Dragon Empire will soon unify the entire Wild Spirit Land," Alston said as if he had lost his mind.

"You are too naïve. It is not as simple as you think," the emperor answered, obviously disappointed. He did not expect that Alston would be enchanted by the Dragon Master Clan.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Father, please don't make me force you! Just do as I said. Do it for my sake. Can't you see? I made so much progress after I went to the territory of the Dragon Master Clan. The patriarch vowed that as long as I handed over the spiritual treasure, he would make me the strongest warrior in the entire Wild Spirit Land," Alston said. His voice was filled with excitement and eagerness.

"Are you out of your mind? You will not at any time become the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, and I will not let you set foot in the forbidden area of the royal family. The Dragon Master Clan must have put you under a spell for you to ask all of these." The emperor's eyes darkened as his aura increased. Suddenly, a powerful aura of the peak of the Divine Stage flared out of his body. The beam of bright light went straight to Alston. He knew that Alston had completely lost his mind and was under the control of the Dragon Master Clan. As a father, he must protect Alston and made sure that he mends his ways.

Alston was alarmed as he saw the glare of light emerged from his father. His father's astonishing strength had always terrified him.

At this moment, a black figure appeared silently behind the emperor.

"Dragon Trapping Skill of the Dragon Master Clan!" The black figure stretched out his two palms in front of him. His hands each had three fingers and were both covered with scales. He made a seal on his chest and in an instant a powerful red dragon flew out and pounced on the emperor.

The emperor seemed to have sensed his presence. He turned around and used the spiritual martial arts of the Divine Stage with all his strength. Before long, nine ice dragons came into view and confronted the flying red dragon.

However, the nine enormous ice dragons were all devoured by the red dragon in a flash.

"Advanced ordinary spiritual being?" The emperor knew that the Dragon Master Clan controlled Alston in secret, but he did not expect the figure to be this powerful.

The red dragon was quick and ruthless. In a second, it had wrapped the entire body of the emperor, making him unable to move.

Then a sharp, lethal spear pierced through the emperor's body. Blood slid down his body and soaked his clothes.

The emperor was disheartened as he felt the pain spread throughout his body. Alston was stubborn and dangerous, but he had not foreseen this. He never expected Alston to attack him.

The emperor was powerful, but he was still a man of flesh and blood. Also, the red dragon had suppressed his spiritual power, so he did not have the spiritual power to protect his body. The physical assault from Alston was unexpected, and it left him defenseless.

"You... will... fail. You will... regret this. He will... come back..." the emperor struggled to finish his words as blood filled his mouth. He stared at Alston with pain in his eyes, then fell down on the ground.

Alston trembled as he saw his father covered in blood. He looked dazed and was thrown off balance. His father's last words confused him. Who was he referring to?

It never occurred to Alston that Basil was still alive. He was also unaware that the wise emperor had handed over to Alyssa the key that would save the Holy Dragon Empire. He had also asked her to deliver it to Basil.

"Why did you do that? Killing him will not do us any good! You still don't know the way to enter the forbidden area of the royal family," the black figure said with dismay. He did not expect that Alston would try to murder his own father.

"Is he dead?" Alston stared at his father, who was lying in a pool of blood.

"I will take him to the Dragon Monster Clan to see if we can save him. But don't get your hopes up. It looks like you have to figure out a way to enter the forbidden area of the royal family by yourself. Maybe the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire knows the way to get in," the black figure reminded Alston. He then grabbed the emperor from the ground and disappeared, leaving only a pool of blood on the ground.

Alston stood motionless for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he immediately cleaned the ground and made sure there was no sign of blood and physical encounter. Terror-stricken, he left the place in haste.

The following day, story of the emperor's disappearance had spread all over the Palace City. The news caused panic and terrified the people. After all, the country could not run without an emperor.

Right away, members of the Emergency Chamber gathered together to discuss the situation. The chamber was composed of the seven elders of the royal family, and they dealt with emergencies within the royal family. In the end, they all joined hands to support Alston. They all agreed that Alston should take over the throne of the Holy Dragon Empire and rule over the entire state until they uncovered the cause of his father's disappearance. Or until his father came back. As a result, Alston became the acting emperor.

At the same time, several royal spirit manipulators began the search for the missing emperor.

Despite this, the sudden disappearance of the emperor still frightened the people in the Holy Dragon Empire.

After the emperor disappeared and Alston took over the throne of the Holy Dragon Empire, Rocky and his two companions returned to Evian City. It was located at the Gehenna Border.

To be safe, Marcia asked Rocky and Lucilla to stay at a remote inn in the south of Evian City. She then went to the Crimson Dragon Group alone.

When she arrived at the Crimson Dragon Group and saw Lance, it also shocked Marcia to learn that the emperor was nowhere to be found.

"Since when was he missing?" Marcia asked in disbelief. Her face had turned pale.

"The day before yesterday, but I just heard about the news myself. How can he disappear for no reason?" Lance asked as he shook his head.

"You said that Alston is now the acting emperor? The moment he came back, the emperor disappeared. Something doesn't seem right," Marcia said. She was suspicious of how things had unfolded. It bothered her that the emperor had gone missing for no apparent reason, and Alston was now the acting emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire. He now possessed an immense power. It was something that he yearned for a long time. If Alston knew that Basil was still alive, Basil's life would also be in great danger. She could gather the Crimson Dragon Group and the Rime Army, which were the two most powerful legions of the Holy Dragon Empire, to support Basil, but it was far from enough. As the acting emperor, Alston was now the most powerful man in the entire empire, and he was backed by the entire royal family. The situation just became more troublesome for them. If Rocky wanted to fight against Alston, he had to be more prepared.
