The Legendary Ruler

Chapter 12 - Rumors

"Did you hear about what happened last night?"

"No, what happened?

"The Tang Clan was exterminated last night. Supposedly, the Tang young master dared to humiliate a disciple from the Flying Sword Sect, which led to the extermination of his clan"

"It serves them well, this way these Noble families will learn to not act in such a domineering way"

The whole capital was talking about the events that occurred last night. The rumors about what incurred this catastrophe kept increasing and spreading through the city.

Some people said that the Tang young master took interest in the disciple's girlfriend, others said that the Tang young master humiliated the disciple in the casino. Of course, the Anvil Royal Family was also a suspect, but amidst the thousands of histories being told, it didn't catch too much attention.

The Royal Palace seemed to not be disturbed by all the spreading rumors. The servants routine kept the same as usual, doing their work as if nothing happened.

Inside a luxurious room, adorned with gold and precious gemstones.

Henry sat in front of a wooden desk filled with books, focusing on writing something on old parchment.

"How did it go?"- Henry asked Godfrey who had just entered the room.

"It went pretty well. The agents have already spread the rumors through the capital"- Godfrey bowed and promptly answered the question.

Immediately after destroying the Tang Clan, Henry commanded all the secret agents under the Royal family to propagate numerous fake histories about the clan's extermination. He knew that if someone decided to investigate this incident, this move would buy him some time.

"Take this Royal Decree and claim everything owned by the Tang Clan"

"Also, charge them of treason"- Henry passed the paper to Godfrey, who took it 

"Treason?"- Godfrey didn't understand why the prince wanted to transform the Tang Clan in a family of national traitors.

"Of course. We should seize this opportunity to take all Tang Clan's business and, besides that, this action will give the world an image that I am siding with the Flying Sword Sect, reducing, even more, the suspicions on the Anvil Royal Family"- Henry slowly explained 

The prince knew that he needed to act fast to reduce the pressure over him and take everything from the Tang Clan to strengthen his own foundations. He couldn't let the other two clans take advantage of this situation.

Hearing and understanding Henry's plan, Godfrey's eyes burned with praises towards the teen in front of him.

"Understood my prince. Anything else?"- Godfrey dutifully asked.

"No, you can take your leave, Godfrey. Thanks"- Henry said, dismissing the man who bowed in acknowledgment and left the room.

"I need to get stronger"- Henry clenched his fists in anxiety.

Although Henry already attained the sixth level of the Fundamental Realm and could be considered a powerful being in this region, he knew that the number of people stronger than him in the Sects and the Central region reached the thousands or even millions. He needed to speed up his cultivation.

" I have already opened the Third Chapter of the Chaotic God Cultivation Technique. The Fourth Chapter should only be unlocked when I reach the Lumen Realm"

The First Chapter of this powerful technique instructed how to open and strengthen every meridian in the human body and, also, how to improve his bloodline.

Henry later found out that he achieved the Low-level Chaotic Origin Bloodline by sheer luck. Because, to enhance his Bloodline, Henry needed to have access to the blood essence of mighty beings. 

That day, in the cave, he was lucky enough to encounter the blood essence of a dragon, one of the most powerful entities in existence. Unfortunately, that volume of blood was too little to raise his Bloodline to the mid-level.

"It's extremely difficult to come across such a legendary being. It will take me years just to find one and even if I meet one, I would probably die in a second"

"Anyways, I will worry about that later"

"It's time to train"
