Flowing Cloud Sect, a gorgeous woman could be seen talking to a jet-black robed man, small smiles lifted on their faces as they conversed, "It seems like your news about that expert disappearing was true...If that's the case, then this won't take long until I can et my daughter..."
The jet-black robed man chuckled, "Well since you're thinking that this won't last that long, how about we take a small bet?"
"A bet?" The woman was intrigued, "Sure, what are the stakes and what bet are we taking?"
"The bet is simple..." The man's smile turned ambiguous, "If the Empire manages to last until daybreak, then I win, if not, then you win..."
"Hoooh? Then what are the stakes?" The woman chuckled, glancing at the man who started approaching her, she replied in a coquettish tone.
"If I lose then you can order whatever you want, but if you lose, you shall be mine for a single night..." The man coiled his arms around her waist, pulling her closer as the latter moaned in the sudden movent.
"You really are a helpless man," She shrugged, but eventually, a smile blossod on her lips as she nodded her head, "Sure if you win, you can 'take out' for the entire night..." The man lecherously smiled as both of them engaged in a quick steamy activity.
anwhile, back at the Imperial Palace, the Emperor's expression was solemn as he stared at the commotion, outside. Clicking his tongue, the only reason that he could find as to how the Flowing Cloud Sect infiltrated without him realizing it should be the handiwork of the two clans that opposed him.
Sighing inwardly, he realized that the hardest thing to comprehend in this world wasn't the heart of the won, but the heart of the n. He didn't expect that the two brothers that accompanied him through the fire and flas would betray him, just for the sake of attaining power.
Lifting his head to stare towards the skies. He eventually urged his body to move towards the direction of the Imperial Treasury.
Outside the Imperial Palace, where the so-called civilians had gathered in protest, Dan's sudden appearance stunned everyone as they hurriedly manifested the might of their cultivation bases to attack. Resplendent beams of light flew towards Dan's direction. But unfortunately for them, Dan's pulling of the trigger was faster and with a bang. He activated Flicker, combined it with Stealth as he safely retreated back inside the formation of the Imperial Palace.
Turning around, Dan found that an Azure light encompassed the figure of Ivan who looked thoroughly enraged as he bellowed, "Fucking Coward! Get the fuck out of there and challenge instead of hiding like a goddamned turtle!" He even crazily attacked the formation, wasting quite a bit of his Qi reserves in the process.
Inside the formation, Dan rely chuckled as he analyzed the defensive artifacts on Ivan's person. And after realizing that the bastard was so afraid of death that he covered himself with at least, thirty defensive artifacts, Dan could only helplessly retreat.
"What the fuck is with that guy? Is he thinking that he's Bai Xiaochun or sothing?" Ivan's fear of death reminded Dan of a certain novel's mc which made him endlessly curse in response.
Entering the Imperial Palace, Dan knocked on the doors of the compartnt as it opened, revealing the figures of the three girls who sat on the bed inside the fairly huge room. Their faces painted with worry and anxiousness about their upcoming fate.
Dan also felt helpless about this. After all, he only has a cultivation of the Flesh Tempering Realm, a cultivation that anyone from the Spirit Tempering Realm could easily crush under their foot.
But still, he didn't lose heart.
He knew.
He knew that there must be so way on how the weak like him could potentially impact the battlefield and turn the tides of the war in their favor. Natalie took notice of his apprehension as she stood up and forced him to sit down.
"Dan, can you please tell us everything? Don't tell that, there's really a coup going on?" Dan stared at her in shock, 'How does she know all of this information?' Glancing at the beautiful young woman whose visual appearance looked like she was at the sa age as him, Dan sighed and said, "Yeah, there's complete chaos everywhere and we're surrounded by our enemies, the Flowing Cloud Sect, the Batian Clan and the Varkaant Clan..."
Dan told about the situation that unfolded outside and the scene of destruction that he witnessed. As expected, Natalie beca pale as her daughter patted her head, in an effort to dissipate her fears.
Dan stared at the cute young girl who addressed him as her Big Brother. The latter noticed his gaze as she said, "Brother, brother, rub mama's head so she won't be sad..." The young girl clearly unfamiliar with so emotions of people, said these words to Dan which made the latter, sowhat delighted as he complied.
Stretching his hand atop Natalie's head, he gently ruffled it, making the latter, narrow her eyes in delight and pleasure from the sensation of Dan's hand. But of course, she quickly realized the inappropriateness of her response and Dan's actions as she begrudgingly removed her head from his hand.
"The two of you shouldn't worry about the outco of this Empire, rest assured that this Empire will definitely not fall under the hands of those bastards..." The daughter of the Emperor coldly laughed, Dan turned his attention towards her and said, "What do you an by that? Could it be that the expert that protects this Empire is still alive?"
She shook her head in response, "No, that expert is dead, I have confird it with both of my eyes."
Dan frowned, "Then why are you saying such words that are uncertain?"
The young woman threw him a long look, "Uncertain? I am saying these words because I am certain, father alone can repel these invading bastards..."
Dan wanted to ask for more information but the forr kept her mouth shut, keeping him in suspense. After playing with Natalie's daughter for a mont, Dan assured Natalie with a hug, but what he didn't expect was that the latter would firmly hold on his waist, not wanting to let go of him.
"Ermm...Young Auntie...I still have so job to do so can you please, remove your hand?" Dan who was unfamiliar with this kind of scenario spoke up in a hushed tone as Natalie quickly retracted her hands in a flurry. Hiding her crimson expression from Dan, the latter walked outside as her daughter stared at her with a confused gaze.
Rubbing her daughter's head, she mumbled, "Agatha, do you want to have a new father?"
anwhile, with Stealth activated, Dan approached the people that relentlessly battered on the formation. He couldn't care less about them. He only cared about the person whom he swore to kill when he arrived in this world.
Ivan Batian
The killer of the previous owner of his body.
This ti, he wouldn't charge through them. Instead, he would make them feel the power of Modern Weapons.
Holding several Frag Grenades in his palm, Dan infused them with his Qi per the System's Instructions before pulling the pin and throwing it at the direction of the gathered crowd, particularly, near Ivan whose expression, distorted into an ugly one.
"rry Christmas, boys..."
Dan mumbled as several explosions droned out every sound in the vicinity.
