Martin, riding on the back of the Void Dragon Emperor, flanked by two golden behemoths, was traveling on the star path to the Light Pillar Plane. He had two goals in mind for this trip.
One is to promote a new group of dragon knights, and the other is to bring the remaining eight golden behemoths back to the plane of the gods.
Passing through the twisted space cracks, the outline of the light column plane soon appeared in the field of vision.
Now that he has stellar-level strength, Martin needs to wear the Light Pillar Ball to return to the Light Pillar Plane - he asked the Void Dragon Emperor and the Golden Behemoth to wait outside the boundary, and with the help of the pendant's induction, he successfully stepped into the Light Pillar Plane.
As soon as he returned to the Sky City, Martin simply said hello and went straight to the Dragon City.
After not being home for a long time, the city is still bustling with activity, the streets are bustling with traffic, soldiers are patrolling in an orderly manner, and there is vitality everywhere.
Lilith had already informed the queens and princesses of his return, and Martin had no objection to this. It was a rare opportunity for him to have some free time, so he should really spend some time with them.
Soon, Qiao Weian came over with Xingchen and other girls, her brows full of joy.
Martin smiled and took their hands, first taking a stroll in the Imperial Garden, and then passing through the space crack.
Travel to various parts of the empire to experience different scenery - from the frozen northern snowfields to the lush green rainforest secrets, from the bustling capital to the quiet small town.
All the girls understood that this kind of time together might not last long.
From the imperial briefing, they knew that Martin was busy expanding the territory and had a heavy burden on his shoulders.
All I can do is not to hold back and enjoy this rare warmth at this moment.
During the tour, Qiao Wei'an whispered, "If there's any need in the war outside, we can help."
The others also nodded, with determination in their eyes.
Martin smiled and ruffled her hair.
"Having you guarding this place is the greatest support for me. Just wait patiently. Once I have secured the territory, I will return to be with you."
In the setting sun, a group of people were riding horses and laughing on the grassland, their shadows stretched out.
A week passed in a flash, and Martin returned to the palace with Jovian and others. After the brief warmth came to an end, he plunged into busy affairs.
The second batch of dragon knight candidates have gathered at the palace, and Greta has also prepared dragon cubs of appropriate age.
Under Martin's leadership, one hundred candidates successfully completed the contract, and each of them possessed the strength of a higher god.
Martin asked them to go to Dragon Cliff to rest and adapt, while he moved to the throne room to understand the changes in the empire during this period.
Sitting upright on the throne, he flipped through the piles of intelligence and memorials, his fingertips running across the yellowed pages, his eyes calm.
Time flowed in silence, the sky outside the window gradually darkened, and the magic lights in the hall lit up one by one, reflecting his focused profile.
Finally, Martin closed the last memorial and had a clear idea in his mind - the general direction of the empire's development has not changed, various affairs are progressing steadily, and the previous thorny and trivial disputes have become much less.
He had originally planned to use some excuses to take action against several legion commanders who had violated the imperial laws and the noble families behind them, to make an example of them and consolidate his power.
Unexpectedly, these people have been unusually "well-behaved" recently, acting cautiously in everything they do, and have not left any handles.
"He's become smarter."
Martin raised the corner of his mouth in a cold arc, and tapped the armrest with his fingertips.
It seems that the conquest of the gods' plane finally intimidated those "stupid" forces.
However, this does not mean that he will let his guard down.
Martin stood up and walked outside the palace, looking at the continuous palace complex under the night sky, a sharp gleam in his eyes.
The empire still has a long way to go in its expansion, and internal rectification must continue. Any potential hidden dangers must not be overlooked.
"Pass on my orders," he said to the dragon shadow behind him, "have the Supervisory Department strengthen inspections of the various legions and noble territories. If any violations are found, there will be no leniency."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Martin stood up, stretched, and then walked towards Jovian's bedroom.
After a night's rest, he got up early in the morning light, changed his clothes under Jovian's gentle instructions, glanced at his sleeping son Peter, and turned to leave the bedroom.
He issued an order in his mind, summoning the newly promoted dragon knights and eight golden behemoths to gather at the training ground of the imperial palace.
Today, he will lead this force to leave the plane through the pillar of light and head to the plane of the gods.
A neat formation quickly formed at the training grounds. One hundred dragon knights, clad in shining silver armor, rode giant dragons, and exuded the aura of a superior god.
The eight golden behemoths stood like small hills, their golden hair shining in the morning light, and their muscle lines contained the power to shake mountains and earth.
Martin stood at the front of the team, his gaze sweeping over them. He said in a deep voice, "From today on, you will follow me into the outer realms. Remember, you are the sharp sword of the empire. You must defend the glory of the empire with loyalty and strength."
"We will follow His Majesty's orders!" Everyone responded in unison, and the sound waves made the ground of the training ground tremble slightly.
Martin nodded, turned to look at the sky, and then flew towards the city in the sky.
The dragon knight rode the giant dragon and followed closely behind, and the golden behemoth followed with heavy steps. The team was like a steel torrent, moving towards the goal.
Arriving at the Sky City, a pillar of light pierced through the heavens and earth like a giant pillar, emitting a stable spatial energy. Martin was the first to step into the light, followed by the Dragon Knight and the Golden Behemoth.
There was a flash of light, and the group disappeared into the plane of light column.
President Pro looked at the beam of light that penetrated the sky and the earth, his eyes full of complex expectations, and silently sent blessings to Martin and his group in his heart.
He knew that he could no longer imagine the path that the young emperor had taken, so he silently wished Martin to manage the Sky City well.
Passing through the beam of light, Martin and the others arrived in the void. The Void Dragon King, who had been waiting there for a long time, let out a low dragon roar and stepped forward to reunite with the other two Golden Behemoths.
In an instant, the enormous might of the dragon and the ferocious aura of Behemoth intertwined, creating invisible waves in the silent void.
"Let's go." Martin's voice spread throughout the team through his mental power.
The Void Dragon Emperor carried Martin and set off first, followed closely by a hundred dragon knights riding giant dragons, and the eight golden behemoths took giant steps, creating space ripples in the void.
This newly formed elite force, like a torrent, marched towards the plane of gods.
