Villain : I reincarnated as a Prince! Shouldn't I have a Harem?

Chapter 172: Arriving at the Emperor’s Birthday - 4!

"It’s good that my ninth brother awakened a low level spirit. I can’t even imagine what would’ve happened if I were to compete with him with the dragon emperor supporting him." I heard the princess sigh in relief.@@@@

The dragon emperor was a legend throughout the empire, similar to my grandmother, the ice empress.

However, even among the four sacred clan heads, he stood out distinguished since it was common knowledge that he was the strongest amongst the four, though it has never been confirmed.

Also, the most famous legend about him was him making friends with a dragon when he was just 26 years old.

The dragon he was riding was the same dragon that he had befriended.

However, it wasn’t because of this that he was called the dragon emperor.

It was because of the Shang Clan’s bloodline.

The Shang Clan’s bloodline was draconic, meaning they descended from dragons.

Though they couldn’t transform into dragons, but could transform their skin into dragon scales, their hands into claws, and use draconic qi to attack and defend.

Their arts were all about using draconic qi to use various types of moves and skills.

This made them a much formidable force even when compared to the other three sacred clans.

It was advantageous for the third princess that the ninth prince was a man with no future due to his low level spirit.

To tell the truth, almost everyone in the empire had a eye on the ninth prince before he awakened his spirit due to him being the grandson of the dragon emperor.

However, since he awakened a low level spirit, everyone quickly lost interest in him.

Who would care about a man with no potential whatsoever.

Sometimes destiny can be so cruel.

Roar!

The dragon let out a low, rumbling growl that reverberated through the arena, sending shivers down everyone’s spine.

The crowd fell silent, covering their ears while some even fainted.

As the dragon descended, its massive form landing with a ground-shaking thud, the dragon emperor stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the assembled crowd.

I could feel the weight of his presence, a force that seemed to command respect and fear in equal measure.

No other sacred emperor have had such a dramatic and commanding entrance like the dragon emperor.

"You still like to show off, Shang Long?"

I heard the voice come from the Xue clan’s gallery, belonging to my grandmother, the ice empress.

She was one of the reasons that made everyone pay more attention to the ninth prince before he awakened his spirit.

She is the only royal concubine who is an emperor realm expert despite her young age.

In the empire, almost every women wanted to be like her. She was top in both beauty and talent, however, her son turned out to be a tragedy.

Meanwhile, the entourage accompanying the ninth prince, everyone tried to recognize them.

To his side walked a number of women.

"Wow, those women can easily snatch a spot in the top ten beauties group."

A head of a small sect in the princess’s faction, sitting in our gallery, said in amazement.

"True! I wonder where the ninth prince found such beauties?"

Another sect’s head said excitedly, exchanging glance with the previous sect head.

"Quiet!" The princess yelled, silencing those old geezers.

The women with the ninth prince looked at their surroundings like children in a palace, visibly awed by the grandeur of the preparations and size of the arena.

However, one of those women was calm, walking while holding hands with two small children.

Behind them walked a group of cultivators.

"W-Wait! How many of them are there?"

"I can easily see more than ten King realm and about ten pseudo-emperor realm cultivators behind him."

The crowd was shocked by the ninth prince’s entourage.

"But who are these cultivators?"

"And why are they with the ninth prince?"

Another barrage of questions came from the crowd, wondering about these cultivator’s identities.

"Wait!... Isn’t that old man an emperor realm cultivator?"

A cultivator from the middle tier seat, stood up and yelled in surprise, pointing at the unknown old man, walking without any pride in him.
