A Momentous Decision

Hearing the various discussions echoing through the court, the Central Sacred Emperor frowned and said, "My ministers, if you have objections, you may voice them. But once I have made a decision, it will not change!"

Many civil and military officials fell silent.

Though every one of those standing in the court was a regional lord of the Sacred Dynasty and a Martial Emperor Realm expert, their hearts were filled with fear before the Central Sacred Emperor.

What allowed him to become the Central Sacred Emperor was not his position as Sacred Emperor, but true strength.

At last, an elderly man with a towering, burly frame, grizzled hair, and armor stepped forward slowly. In a solemn tone, he said, "Your Majesty, the princess is still young and weak. How can she bear such a great responsibility?"

"I will support her."

The Central Sacred Emperor said.

"Father, I refuse to accept this! How long has this woman been back? Yet you are already passing the throne to her. I have devoted myself wholeheartedly, sharing your burdens and easing your worries. I am the one more qualified to inherit the throne!"

The First Prince stepped forward and voiced his dissatisfaction.

"Zheng'er, what keeps one firmly seated in court is strength. Qing Yao possesses exceptional talent and has inherited my Divine Dragon Bloodline. With dragon fortune upon her, her future achievements will surpass even mine. She may even reach the Saint Realm!"

The Central Sacred Emperor said calmly.

Hearing this, the First Prince still looked unwilling. Naturally, he understood what his father meant. Yun Qingyao possessed extraordinary talent and had inherited a powerful bloodline; in the future, she might cultivate to the Saint Realm.

As long as she reached the Saint Realm, the Central Sacred Dynasty would certainly become stronger than it was
