Chapter 865 The Empire Changes

At the palace gate, all the royal family members came out to welcome General Sean.

The two most influential royal family members stood in the middle of the group.

They were the Eldest Prince Norton and the Eldest Princess Isabel.

Norton was dressed in a black brocade robe. He was tall and slender, and his every move exuded confidence.

As for Isabel, a bright smile appeared on her face when she saw Sean. Her smile never faltered, even for a single second.

Sean stepped forward and looked at the crowd.

“Welcome back, General Sean. We have prepared a banquet. Let us celebrate your triumphant return!”

Isabel said with a smile.

However, General Sean just hardened his face and did not answer.

Norton immediately added, “General Sean, you must be tired. Come in and rest first. If you don’t want to attend the banquet, please wash up and rest. It’s not a problem to celebrate another day.”

Both of them had great respect for General Sean, as well as the rest of the royal family.

Because they knew that their rule could stabilize because of General Sean’s existence.

If they could continue to obtain General Sean’s support, it would be smooth for them to continue their succession.

General Sean looked at the golden carpet below and could not help but sigh.

In this world, there weren’t many places lavish enough to use a carpet made of gold for people to step on.

“You guys can enjoy the banquet. I have no appetite!”

Sean replied unhappily, straight to the point. He was a person who expressed his feelings directly.

After saying that, he rode on his tiger’s back and walked straight into the palace.

Seeing this, the royal family was a little embarrassed. They had put a lot of effort into preparing for this banquet, and it seemed their efforts were in vain now that General Sean was unwilling to attend.

Isabel looked back at General Sean’s back and couldn’t help but wonder what he had experienced. Everything gave off a weird feeling…

As for Lu Yu, he blended into the crowd and followed Sean in.

The people here did not dare question him, even if they knew he was wearing a mask and could not see his face.

The royal family members standing at the gates felt helpless and awkward. They could only turn around and walk into the palace one by one.

The royal palace was not just a building but a small city that occupied a vast area.

Although the land mass of this place was remarkably huge, the number of people living here was less than 200.

Everyone was equipped with luxurious villas and a plethora of entertainment facilities. All kinds of exotic beasts, delicacies, and rare equipment could be seen lying around.

The entire palace was filled with an elegant atmosphere.

Just the path leading from the palace gates was inlaid with quite a number of gems.

General Sean walked forward for a distance and toward his mansion.

He had a private mansion here where he stayed whenever he returned to the capital.

Most of the time, this place was empty.

Standing at the entrance, a servant opened the door.

Sean got off his mount and returned his battle pet to his contract item.

Soon, he led the way into his mansion.

Entering the courtyard, there was a beautiful garden, and a large villa stood in the middle of it. Although it was rarely occupied, it was well-kept.

Sean walked toward the entrance of his villa.

Lu Yu took off his mask and walked to Sean’s side.

“Don’t tell me you just found out about the situation in the city?”

Sean nodded helplessly. “Yes, I only know now. When the old Emperor was alive, no matter how luxurious his life was, he would still look at these people at the bottom.”

“These young nobles no longer have their eyes on the city. Their lives have nothing to do with their citizens anymore. I’m sure they only want to go somewhere extravagant to eat, drink, and have fun.”

At this point, Sean’s tone was a little sad.

He seemed to have envisioned that the glorious days of the Empire were about to cease to exist.

“When do you plan to make your move?”

He looked at Lu Yu with an urgent look in his eyes.

“I can do it anytime, but it’s best if my impact is as small as possible.”

“Those nobles will all attend tonight’s banquet. I’ll go there and catch them all in one fell swoop!”

Lu Yu stated this decisively.

General Sean nodded slightly. “Do you really want to leave none of those people alive?”

“I don’t know them, and none of them are innocent bystanders. So, of course, there’s no point in leaving any of them alive.”

“Oh right, call Elizabeth over first.”

Sean nodded silently and then looked at his subordinates.

“Call the princess over. Mention that I want to see her.”

“Yes, General!”

One of his subordinates walked out as he heard General Sean’s orders.

The people in this mansion were all people who General Sean trusted. Naturally, he would not worry about any news leaks.

A trained soldier’s first lesson was to maintain loyalty. As the empire’s general, he made no exception when cultivating his troops.

After a short while, his subordinates brought Elizabeth in.

Elizabeth, who walked in, looked nervous and pursed her pale lips.

Seeing Elizabeth’s mental state, Sean’s heart ached.

“Elizabeth, were you grounded by those bastards?”

Elizabeth walked forward and looked at Lu Yu.

“Lu Yu, I don’t want to leave you anymore. Stay with me, okay?”

She looked at Lu Yu pitifully and pleaded.

Lu Yu was the only one who gave her a sense of security.

Although she had no relationship with Lu Yu, there was no one in the royal family whom she could trust more than him.

Even General Sean was no exception because she knew that he was loyal to the royal family and would not help her.

Lu Yu walked forward and hugged Elizabeth. The short, warm hug calmed her down a little.
“Don’t worry. From today on, no one in the royal family will be able to bully you. I will make them all disappear.”

Elizabeth’s eyes widened. “Are you going to kill them all?”

“This is a life-and-death struggle. Don’t you also want to save the empire from this tumor?”

Elizabeth nodded silently. “That’s right, but I don’t want you to take this risk.”

Lu Yu could not help but laugh. “There’s no risk when everything is already set in stone. At least, it’s nothing compared to some of the crises I’ve experienced in the past.”

He turned to General Sean and asked, “Don’t you think so? You should have the right to speak.”

Sean was unhappy after hearing this, but he did not dare refute Lu Yu.

After all, a man who could tame a dragon was not someone he could afford to provoke.

“Yes, there’s no problem with what you said…”
