Chapter 1392: Chapter 521: Heavenly Reversal Power_2

Hugo understood the Nine Witch Demon Court’s underlying issue: their confidence had been shattered by Owen Bertram’s sword. Hugo needed to find someone who could single-handedly defeat Owen Bertram; unfortunately, there were not many candidates for the job.

There were even fewer people within the Demon Court who understood Hugo’s painstaking efforts. After days of racking his brains, as Owen Bertram’s army closed in on Customs City, Hugo’s beard was nearly turning white from anxiety. One day, he suddenly stood up and slapped his forehead: "How could I forget her!"

"Prepare the horse; I’m going to see the Grand Emperor!"

The Nine Witch Demon Court still had a Grand Emperor. Not only had the Human Race forgotten about him, but even the Demon Clan hardly remembered him, let alone wanted to. The existence of this "Grand Emperor" had always been awkward...

The Demon Court’s current royal family belonged to the Flame Sparrow clan, with their bloodlines tracing back to Golden Crows, Grey Eagles, Fire Phoenixes, and so on. Each member of the royal family would awaken the corresponding Divine Powers after reaching adulthood. However, since the focus of each bloodline was different, the awakened Divine Powers varied greatly.

The previous Demon Emperor had a very long life, ruling for 6,900 years! His sons had been outlived by him, and so had most of his grandsons. The remaining alive were all old and unfit to inherit the throne. Thus, in the last few years of the previous Demon Emperor’s reign, the struggle for succession involved his great-grandsons.

At that time, Origin Resurgence had not yet begun, and the previous Demon Emperor was only in the Sixth Great Realm. But every time the Demon Court’s ministers thought that the old emperor was on the verge of death, and they started betting on the heir... the old emperor managed to survive, only to turn against them: "I’m still here, and you’re already thinking of changing your master? This is disloyalty, to death!"

For the royal family, this was actually very beneficial. The Nine Witch Demon Court had the Nine Great Purple-blooded Nobles and the Ten Great Golden-blooded Nobles- Hugo belonged to the Golden Blood Clan. These clans had all produced Demon Emperors in the past. In the Demon Court’s internal politics, these clans posed the greatest threat to the royal family. All of the outstandings members the Old Emperor killed were from these families.

It wasn’t until 50 years ago that, after being killed off several times by the Old Emperor, the major families couldn’t take it anymore. Within the royal family, half of the great-grandchildren had died, and everyone was exhausted. Furthermore, the Old Emperor had lived for an incredibly long time, so rumors began to circulate that he had secretly used a special secret technique to sacrifice the spirits and blood of the Great Demons from other families, thereby prolonging his own life.

In simpler terms, it was "cannibalizing demons"! The more he consumed, the more powerful and longer-lived he became.

However, in reality, each time the Old Emperor implicated a large number of people, it was after he had survived his own death. In fact, these rumors were somewhat reversing cause and effect. Nonetheless, the entire Demon Court didn’t care and pushed the Old Emperor into a situation where he seemed to be an enemy to all. In the end, the Old Emperor could not survive this death, and the entire Nine Witch Demon Court heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, the Nine Great Purple-blooded Nobles and the Ten Great Golden-blooded Nobles immediately began to fight for power, and the Current Demon Emperor finally ascended the throne. The funeral of the Old Emperor was simplified – the Imperial Tomb had been completed thousands of years ago, so he could quickly move in!

On the day of the burial, the descendants of the royal family came to bid farewell. The current Demon Emperor had recently married a new wife, who had just given birth to a Little Princess. The baby, still in her swaddling clothes, was also brought by her mother to the Old Demon Emperor’s funeral.

When it was their turn to pay their respects, the Little Princess made noises in her swaddle, extending her chubby white hand towards the Old Emperor’s corpse... and then, surrounded by the Purple-blooded, Golden-blooded, and royal family members, they all saw a chaotic spiritual light fly out from the Little Princess’s hand, land on the Old Emperor’s body, and then the Old Emperor sat up from his coffin!

It was said that several Clan Leaders of the Purple-blooded and Golden-blooded families were so scared that they collapsed on the spot.

Of course, the Old Emperor wanted to regain power, but the New Emperor had already ascended the throne and had held the Heaven Sacrifice ceremony – which was supposed to happen after the Old Emperor’s burial, but practically everyone, from the emperor to his ministers, couldn’t wait.

Aside from a few old eunuchs who had always served the Old Emperor, there were practically no demons supporting him. In the end, the Old Emperor was honored as the "Grand Emperor." The New Emperor generously granted billions of Spirit Jades for the construction of the Grand Emperor Palace for his retirement – although the palace’s location was right next to the Old Emperor’s mausoleum.

The Old Emperor’s final edict conferred the title of "Princess Amelia" to the baby girl in swaddling clothes – an inappropriate title, but the New Emperor approved it. The Old Emperor raised Princess Amelia by his side, and since then, the whole Nine Witch Demon Court deliberately forgot about the existence of the Grand Emperor and Princess Amelia.

However, in reality, the Nine Great Purple-blooded and Ten Great Golden-blooded families understood that Princess Amelia was perhaps the most talented demon in the royal family – the unprecedented kind, far surpassing both the Old Emperor and the New Emperor. Even if the "Heaven’s Chosen" from the history of the "Nine Great Purple-blooded and Ten Great Golden-blooded" were all brought up together, they still couldn’t compare to the Little Princess.

Because the spiritual light she used to bring the Old Emperor back to life was an unprecedentedly high-level "Heaven’s Standing" Divine Power that had never been awakened by any Flame Sparrow: Heavenly Reversal Power!

Members of the royal family could awaken Divine Powers only after reaching adulthood, yet she had awakened them at birth – and it was the highest-level Heaven’s Standing Divine Power. Before this, the so-called "Heavenly Reversal Power" had only been claimed by the royal family, without any demons actually awakening it. The other families saw this as the royal family merely trying to glorify themselves...
