The Medallion

Although the Holy Dragon Empire now detached itself from the Dragon Master Clan, the whole affair didn't have much of an impact on the empire. It was still financially secure and was independently strong. The only drawback was the continuous invasion of other empires through different borders, resulting in wars on all corners of the empire. Without the support of the Dragon Master Clan, the Holy Dragon Empire was like a lone wolf which the enemies assumed would be an easy target. Backed by the different clans of the spiritual race, they grew ambitious and greedy to devour the rich empire.

Unfortunately for the intruders, the Holy Dragon Empire was not ripe for the taking yet. With the three important borders being guarded by armies led by the Three Great Generals, the empire was impregnable. However, the continuous war affected the overall balance in power of the empire.

Half a month ago, the border guarded by the Rime Army Group was besieged. To bring things back under control, Marcia, the top commander of the army, went back to the army and took command at the border.

A few days ago, Shirley also had returned to the Sky Army Group to assist her grandfather, Chief Bryant.

Rocky and the three women, along with Nigel, returned to the Imperial City to meet the emperor.

When they finally met the emperor at the Lofty Dragon Hall, only a few important ministers were left behind, without the presence of Bryant, Marcia and Lance. The three were protecting the borders and were in command of their own legions. The hall felt a little cold without their presence.

"Greetings, Father." Rocky bowed to the emperor and the others followed suit.

The emperor beamed with joy at the sight of his son. His physical condition had improved considerably, and he looked steady and powerful as usual. But since he was seriously injured by Alston, he had lost all his cultivation base. If he forced himself to use his strength now, it would create a huge burden on his body. So now, the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire was no different from an ordinary man.

"Basil," he addressed, looking firmly at his son. "You already know why I called you here; I had explained everything in the letter. What do you think?"
