Kapitel 404: Prince

Xu Jian was left speechless! He didn't have anything to offer as he thought that information about a phoenix would be enough to set him free.

"Please, I beg you! Please spare me! I will never cause trouble for you again!" Xu Jian said pleadingly.

"Do you really think that I would believe anything you said?" Yi Tianyun said coldly.

"You know, I can't let anyone know about this phoenix, and the best person to keep a secret is a dead one!" Yi Tianyun said coldly.

Yi Tianyun then de-summoned all his tamed beasts and immediately burned Xu Jian to ashes with his Immortal Flame!

After killing Xu Jian, Yi Tianyun sighed in relief and immediately searched for the storage ring left behind by the three idiots!

"Well, today was a great haul! I will definitely raise this phoenix for Aunt later!" Yi Tianyun said excitedly as he flew back toward the imperial city.

…

"Brother, where have you been? I can't find you anywhere!" Ren Zhirou said worriedly.

"But well, I see that you are safe and sound, so save the story for later, you need to go to Brother Long's location, he has something for you!" Ren Zhirou said excitedly.

Yi Tianyun nodded his head and immediately followed Ren Zhirou to the hall inside the palace.

Yi Tianyun noticed that many people have gathered in the hall, and it seemed that these people were those who supported Ren Long as their emperor!

These people were of high nobility, and therefore they had some sort of power within the Empire.

Yi Tianyun noticed that Hua Xiying was one of these people, but as she was surprised to see Yi Tianyun, the rest of the general, family representatives and ministers of the Heavenly Dragon that gathered in the hall were looking at Yi Tianyun in annoyance.

"What is this brat doing here?" A man said, stating his annoyance.

A murmur was immediately heard throughout the hall, as so many of the people gathered here didn't like the idea of Yi Tianyun attending the announcement!

"Brother Ren, what is going on? Why am I here?" Yi Tianyun asked Ren Long curiously.

"Where have you been? Zhirou couldn't seem to find you anywhere!" Ren Long said with a smile.

"Let's save It for another time, brother, but I didn't expect to be here, so do others!" Yi Tianyun said with a slight embarrassment on his face.

"I want you all to see this young man in front of you! I want you to respect him like you respected my family and me! He is officially my brother now, and therefore he was the prince of the Heavenly Dragon Empire!" Ren Long said excitedly.

The entire hall fell silent as the announcement really surprised everyone inside.

"What? What are you talking about Great Emperor! You couldn't decide something like that on a whim!" A minister said, stating his objection.

The entire place began to get noisy, as everyone also stated their objection.

"Great Emperor, we wouldn't object your decision to make him your brother, but we couldn't agree with your decision to make him the prince, as you may know, we don't know him yet, we can't entrust a total stranger to control the Imperial City to his liking!" Minister Xu said worriedly.

Minister Xu was the father of Xu Fei, and therefore Yi Tianyun could see the similarity between the two.

"Then what would you suggest?" Ren Long asked curiously.

"He should start by earning our trust, let him build his own reputation worthy of the title Prince of Heavenly Dragon Empire! Furthermore, he must have the necessary strength and power to be the prince!" Minister Xu said wisely.

Almost everyone agreed with Minister Xu's word.

"Isn't it enough that he saved me when I was trapped inside Coiling Dragon cave?" Ren Long asked curiously.

"I am sorry Great Emperor, but that is not enough! A guard also saved Princess Zhirou on several occasions, but we don't see them become the princess' consort for that!" Another minister said confidently.

However, everyone was a little bit surprised to hear that Yi Tianyun was the one who saved Ren Long from the Dangerous Area!

"Brother, show them the power you got earlier!" Ren Zhirou said after sighing a little bit.

Yi Tianyun shrugged his shoulder and reluctantly stepped forward, he immediately created a shield around himself, stunning everyone once more!

This shield was part of the Heavenly Dragon Secret Treasure's power, which means, if Yi Tianyun could control it, it was the same as being a great emperor or being the next heir!

On the side, Ren Zhirou chuckled to see Ren Long, and the rest of the people inside the hall were shocked beyond belief!
