The Emperor couldn't help but reach out for the Dragon Ball, but Prince Ning swiftly retracted his hand, grasping the Dragon Ball tightly.
The Emperor's head buzzed, his gaze persistently following Prince Ning's hand that held the Dragon Ball.
From his bosom Prince Ning drew out an imperial edict and placed it on the Dragon Desk, surprisingly an edict to pass the throne to Zhu Xiangsheng. He stated word by word, "Father, please affix the imperial seal. Once you stamp it, the Dragon Ball is yours to take to the heavens as you desire. If you refuse, I will crush this Dragon Ball. If you doubt my resolve, put me to the test."
At this moment, the Emperor felt as though his body had been drained, as light as a sheet of paper. He looked at the Dragon Ball, then again at his eldest son who, despite smiling, was emanating malicious energy. Powerless and at wit's end, he said feebly, "Enough, enough. Take the world if you want it." Following this, he gave Eunuch Cui a meaningful glance.
