Emperor’s Domination

.

Lucidity only had one daughter. However, after becoming a True Emperor last generation, she left for Immortal and hasnt returned.

It meant that he no longer had a successor available, so Li Qiyes current placement truly shocked others.

No one would dare to make this arrangement without permission from Lucidity. Doing so could result in a clan extermination.

At the same time, people didnt gossip about it either due to Luciditys perfect grasp over the dynasty.

Li Qiye didnt react at all just like before as if this place was just another inn. He remained nonchalant, unaware of the significance behind the eastern palace.

All eyes were on Skywrap Mountain after the return of the king. They wanted to know about his health but none dared to visit without permission.

On this night, Lucidity sent a messenger to summon Li Qiye. The guy walked over in a carefree manner as if this was his own place.

When they met again, Lucidity was in a worse state, needing far more energy to open his eyes.

“Do you like your place, little friend?” Lucidity revealed a gentle smile, quite rare for him.

He was certainly not a nice person, more of a ruthless and imperious tyrant – bloodthirsty, even. A kind smile was the last thing to be shown on his face.

“Not bad.” Li Qiye smiled back, treating Lucidity like just another person.

“I hope you will find the accommodation acceptable.” Lucidity acted like a doting senior.

One would be scared out of their mind if they were to see this. Lucidity never showed such care for anyone outside of his daughter. But Li Qiye was only a stranger without any relation to him.

“I dont have much time, and no children either.” Lucidity wasnt one to waste words and got straight to the point: “The dynasty needs a ruler, so I have made up my mind. Will you be the crown prince?”

His servants were astounded after hearing this. Appointing a stranger that he had only met for one day as the crown prince? How illogical.

They wondered to themselves – was the illness getting to the king?

The only person unmoved by this development was Sun Lengying who stood unnoticed in the shadows.

“Crown prince? That would make you my dad then.” Li Qiye laughed in response, still rather indifferent to anything thrown at him ever since his arrival.

“Our meeting is fate, no need to worry about worldly customs.” Lucidity weakly waved his sleeve.

Li Qiye smiled: “Perhaps. Is it fun being the crown prince? I can do whatever I want?”

“Indeed, you can do whatever you want.” Lucidity seemed insane, forgoing his authority in order to make Li Qiye the crown prince.

Once again, he had only met this guy yesterday.

“A bit interesting, could be fun. Very well, Ill be a crown prince.” Li Qiye revealed a wide smile.

“Good, go rest then.” Lucidity was running out of breath and needing to close his eyes.

“Alright.” Li Qiye casually responded and left, not bothering to bow or perform any ceremonial gesture towards the king.

The servants were slack-jawed by the lack of formality. This was the first time theyve met someone so bizarre.

Becoming the crown prince of War Saint Dynasty? This meant gaining unlimited power and authority yet this guy didnt react at all.

‘Could it be that this brat doesnt know the significance behind the role in War Saint? Does he not know how much power he had just gotten? They thought.
