Emperor Shi issued an edict, announcing his abdication, and that Shi Hao would ascend the throne.
The news spread, causing shock throughout Stone Country.
Although Emperor Shi's abdication might have been expected within a century, to ordinary people, a century is a lifetime, an incredibly long time.
Now, the New Emperor has actually ascended the throne?
Moreover, wasn't the Young Emperor already designated? Why is it not the Young Emperor succeeding, but someone else?
However, when people learned that the New Emperor was the son of the former Young Emperor, they finally understood a bit.
A son inheriting his father's position is only natural.
In this, both Regent King Shi Zhixue and Shi Mingzhen expressed their support; the only dissenter was the Shi Long lineage. But Shi Long, with no support, how could he challenge a Peerless Great Ability?
Impossible.
Thus, the New Emperor's ascension was decided with one word.
