Back at the Yang illustrious royal castle, within one of the vast upper chambers…
A luxuriously designed room came into sight. Everything in said room—ranging from desks, rugs, chairs, and even the massive king-sized mattress—was sculpted from gold, imbued with various exotic gems and ancient inscriptions.
And right now, a robust figure could be seen sitting at his desk facing the window, dressed in regal robes and humble sandals, his hair silky black and his eyes a familiar royal green.
Though his features were more defined, the young man still bore an uncanny resemblance to Crown Prince Yang Li.
This man in question was none other than the second prince of the Yang Empire, Yang Jian—the first runner-up in the race for the throne, and the only other cultivator apart from the emperor in the royal family.
He was known as a genius in martial arts. In fact, he had just begun cultivating barely a year ago and was already half-step into the Meridian Opening Realm.
