Lin Xiao raised his head to look at the Emperor before he gave his answer. His voice was paid attention by so many people in the hall.
"Yes, Your Majesty. As the prince of Sun Kingdom, I naturally will not miss this chance."
Lu Jian glanced at Lin Xiao for a moment but didn't raise his head. He didn't know what Lin Xiao was planning but he could guess that it meant Lin Xiao wanted to use his own influence.
Hmm, it meant that he would have to start work harder to gather more people to Lin Xiao's side.
On the other hand, Fan Ling's eyes glinted. She understood that Lin Xiao was also trying to pull her family over to his side with this move. But it meant that there would be an internal war because her cousin would naturally not want to leave her alone.
Heh, if he wanted a battle, she would give him a battle he would remember for his entire lifetime.
With that in thought, Fan Ling's eyes were burning with the fire of fighting spirit. She wanted to see how that cousin of hers would suffer in her hands and be defeated by the person he hated so much.
"Is that so?" the Emperor then passed a look at Prince Lin Yan. "Bring your brother there."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Prince Lin Yan cupped his fist as greetings before he led Lin Xiao and the others away. The other officials were itching to find a reason to go out but they could see that the Emperor had no intention of ending the court yet.
Well, they had their own servants and naturally such a big news would not pass without reaching them.
As they walked, Prince Lin Yan sent a voice transmission.
"What's your plan right now, Lin Xiao?"
"I'm going to pull the supporters first." Lin Xiao smiled faintly. "If they only follow me because of my identity as Emperor's Inheritor, there's no point. I want them to follow me and me alone."
Not because of identity but because it was him?
It would be hard and Prince Lin Yan knew that pulling supporters without revealing Lin Xiao's real identity would put the brat in danger. However, he knew that Lin Xiao had his own plan.
He might be the brat's brother but he was not his nanny nor would he be trying to influence all of Lin Xiao's decision. At most, he would help from the side as a brother and also a subject.
"In that case, please be prepared to face the harsh reality. Not everyone will want to follow you."
"I know. I'm taking a bet." Lin Xiao smiled.
Looking at the confident smile, Prince Lin Yan seemed to understand something. it seemed that Lin Xiao simply wanted to gather some forces that would support him in his early stages. Those who chose his side from the very first would be those who would receive the best benefit from him.
As for those who only followed later, they would not get as much benefit as those who decided to follow first.
Hmm, it seemed that his little brother had his own thinking.
The street where the Dragon Pavilion Hall was located was fairly empty. There were only some people walking here and there. But from the moment Prince Lin Yan, Lin Xiao, and the others walked in, more and more people swarmed in.
It was clear that they were curious about the performance that Lin Xiao would show to them.
"This is the Dragon Pavilion Hall. Every princes will have a chance to enter when they're young and if they can open it, they may come at any time they want." Prince Lin Yan looked at Lin Xiao. "I don't know what kind of benefit you will get from this Dragon Pavilion Hall as only those who can get in will know."
"I see."
"You can try now."
"Mhm."
Stepping forward, Lin Xiao faintly recalled that two to three years ago, he was also coming to this very Dragon Pavilion Hall. At that time, he was sneaking around while trying to make sure that there were no one who followed him.
Standing before the Dragon Pavilion Hall, Lin Xiao still felt that the building before him was very big. It was dark brown in color and seemed to be slightly shinning under the sun. But now, all that was left was the dark glittering and also the suppressive force coming from the building.
Lin Xiao walked closer to the building and then stood before the main door. The main door was over two meters tall and had circle handle at the front. The door itself also dark in color and there was faint glimmering that was written at the front.
"My Children, The World Emperor, Only those who are qualified shall enter into the Dragon's Abode."
The writing was still the same as before and Lin Xiao let out a faint smile when he saw it. His gaze looked at the familiar messages.
'Lin Hu, will the ancient power affect my ability to open the door?'
Now that Lin Xiao thought about it, he remembered that he had used the ancient power to hide the dragon power.
What if he couldn't open the door?
Even having the Emperor Inheritance would only make him a joke.
Those people would not question him as long as he had enough power, but it would be better to be safe than sorry. And if he failed to open the door because of the ancient power… he would really want to cry.
Lin Hu was speechless at Lin Xiao's question. "Idiot, how could the ancient power stop you from opening this Dragon Pavilion Hall? It's made by using the dragon power and no matter what kind of method of disguising you use, you won't be able to dupe it."
"Really?"
"Yes!"
Thus, Lin Xiao put his hand on the door. Upon seeing the door opening, Lin Xiao relaxed. He could feel faint familiar mystical power from inside the room. Yep, it was opening once more.
