Chapter 155: Chapter 154

Seeing Lucien's power change the weather everyone was stunned and terrified as well. The people watched the battle from afar and chanted 'Invincible' while they watched Lucien gather his power for a single strike. They finally saw the power that defeated Klaus of the Lightborn family, leaving them much more excited than terrified!

"You are strong… That's good" the hooded figure finally took off the hood revealing his identity!

Seeing his identity, Alice and Instructor Han bowed and Lucien instantly released his power and dropped to the ground before falling on his knees!

"Emperor!" They all screamed in shock since no one expected the emperor would come here this way.

Lucien thought about it and remembered that the city defenses didn't even attack the hooded figure, that was to prove that he had no evil intentions against him. He was lost in his anger that someone could slip past into his territory and that was the reason why he couldn't think straight.

"That power you used… Terrifying! I felt like if I got hit just once, I will definitely die on the spot, regardless if I blocked or not!" Emperor Fei said with a bright smile as he walked towards Lucien and placed his hand on his shoulder.

"You are no longer the kid who considered himself a third wheel whenever he was with us… Right now, You are strong! You didn't disappoint us" Emperor Fei said those words softly, even Lucien trembled as he felt all his suppressed emotions about to explode.

"Thank you… If you all didn't let me have that gift, I wouldn't be where I am today" Lucien managed to suppress his emotions but his voice was still a bit shaky when he spoke.

Alice was stunned because she has never seen the emotional side of Lucien and she felt relieved that the man she fell in love with is not the stone-cold man, many people think he is. Right now he looked so fragile and cute.

"Rise!" Emperor Fei ordered and Lucien rose to his feet with the other two.

He was about to speak but then he got a notification from the system that ruined his mood.

DING!

DING!

[People's champion: Host has shown his true strength to his people for the first time, causing them to chant invincible! You have gained the hearts of your people through strength, just like an emperor should! Well done! +3000 empire points]

DING!

DING!

[Castle destroyed, do you wish to repair?]

[Cost: 3000 empire points]

'You worthless piece of shit!" Lucien cursed in his heart as he wished he could separate this fraudulent system from his body and give it a good beating. It gave him a reward just to take it away. He also knew the castle had some hidden formation so rebuilding the normal way may affect it in some way.

"Get back!" Lucien turned to Alice and Instructor Han. 

The two nodded and walked back in silence while Lucien slowly levitated towards the destroyed section with the emperor following him slowly.

"Repair!" He muttered as he reached towards the destroyed section and his eyes let out an extremely blinding white light and everyone watched the destroyed part of the building fixing itself at an astonishing rate. They saw each new brick appearing getting inscribed with some sort of magic formation, leaving them stunned! Even the emperor, gazed at Lucien's back as if he had seen a monster.

So far he has heard of Lucien's miraculous actions but has never seen it. On this day, he saw Lucien demonstrate the power of a god!

The creation authority!

"You?" Emperor Fei muttered but Lucien shook his head.

Seeing Lucien didn't wish to talk about it, he dropped the matter and followed Lucien into the castle. In his opinion, everyone has their secrets, so it's Lucien's choice if he wishes to reveal anything concerning his abilities. When they returned to the room, Alice was only halfway done with the healing since she was too focused on Lucien's fight and the emperor's appearance left her dazed as well. No one would have expected that Lucien would have such a close relationship with the emperor.

In fact, many speculated that the trio are very close in the past but no one had any way of proving it, that's why no one made a move on Lucien until now.

"How are you doing champ?" Emperor Fei gazed at Instructor Han and laughed.

Instructor Han and Lucien soon joined him, leaving Alice confused. They are targets of those planning a coup, Instructor Han almost died, yet they can just laugh like this.

"The ability to remain calm in the face of danger is a privilege reserved for the strong" Emperor Fei said calmly and Lucien nodded.

"I don't know what they are planning and I am honestly curious to know what they are planning…" Emperor Fei said as he leaned on the wall.

This part made Lucien frown and he couldn't help but look at the emperor.

"You don't plan to make a move to stop it?" Lucien asked and the emperor shook his head.

"Stop it how? I don't know who and who is plotting against me and even if I knew, what then? I kill them and tomorrow their kids rise up against me…. And what if I wipe out their clans, the other clans who are not involved will feel insecure and this will lead to more battles and endless bloodshed… If my death will bring about peace then so be it, but don't you dare think I will let them take my life so easily… When the time comes, I will fight to the bitter end, the world has to know their crimes and see it in effect, that way killing them off will be considered just and right" Emperor Fei said calmly.

A sad smile appeared on his face as he turned his attention to Lucien and Instructor Han and said.

"At that time, I will need all the help I can get… I will be needing my family" he added.

Hearing this Lucien and Instructor Han fell on their knees with reddened eyes.
