บท 1676: Emperor's Arrival

All 4 that heard Alex's voice turned their heads toward the south as they too realized that the Dragon Emperor had come. 

"No…" Long Huan's face paled in fear.

Zhan Luoyang seemed to have frozen in shock as well. 

Alex was the same as well. He couldn't understand why the Dragon Emperor was there at all. How could he have come there so soon? Had the Crown Prince given up on them?

That couldn't be. There would have been no reason to let them go only to call his father. There were so many guards around him and he had let them sneak away.

Had the Dragon Emperor been somehow alerted that they had made it inside? That made little sense either. No, now was not the time to worry about these things.

Alex turned around toward the group. "Let's run!" His words brought them out of their stupor. "He's affected by the suppression too. We can get there first if we run."
