The Least Bad Ending (End of Volume VI: Imperium)

As the last word on the decree was frozen into a gold mark in midair, the new emperor suddenly drew his royal sword and pointed it at the sky.

Unparalleled power surged out of him in visible gold tides that swept across the whole royal palace above everyone's head!

They could hear the roar of the new emperor and sense his overwhelming ambitions!

The Immortal Cultivators who knew nothing about the new emperor shuddered palely.

They had thought that the new emperor was only a puppet of the reformists and that it was Lei Chenghu and Li Yao who actually held power.

Little did they know that the new emperor boasted such appalling strength!

A new emperor with such remarkable abilities could not be a simple puppet!

Before they exclaimed, an even more unbelievable scene had shown up!
