Seeing the dragon man fall down, Lin Tian showed a relieved smile on his face. Then he quickly left here. He didn't want others to see how weak he was.

On the other hand, he didn't know Xiao Zhihan's position, nor did he know why his childhood sweethearts were fighting, and he also needed to rest.

Now he has exhausted all his spiritual power and is almost like an ordinary person.

After Lin Tian left, the forest became much quieter. The death of the dragon man and Xiao Zhihan's transformed temperament made the entire forest even quieter. There were no sounds of any animals, not even the chirping of insects.

It took a full hour before the forest returned to normal.

Lin Tian returned to Xihuang Kingdom and sat on the throne. The ceremony had been completed and the palace had been redecorated.

No one except himself knew how serious his injuries were.

Xuanyin has always been a growing type. When Xiao Zhihan had not fully grown up, she was fragile, so she once had a wind and sand physique.

However, the elder tricked Xiao Zhihan into changing into a Xuanyin physique ahead of time for his own selfish desires, and the hidden problem was exposed.

Lin Tian was in a dilemma for a moment. If she was by his side, he could protect her for the rest of her life.

But now Xiao Zhihan stood against him. Although he didn’t know why, Lin Tian had to do so.

As for the people mentioned in the prophecy who would affect Xiao Zhihan's future path to becoming emperor, he would eliminate them one by one, even if he became a bad person.

"Oh, forget it. Now that the decision has been made, let's just do it this way." Lin Tian sighed, then walked out of the palace and headed towards the imperial garden.

Today is the second day of the palace banquet. The palace maids, eunuchs and guards are ready. When Lin Tian came to the Imperial Garden, he found that there were many people strolling in the water pavilion in the middle of the Imperial Garden, both men and women, including many young and beautiful young women and pretty ladies.

"Isn't this His Majesty? How come Your Majesty has time to come to the Imperial Garden to play?" Suddenly a charming voice was heard, and a woman in pink palace dress walked towards Lin Tian slowly.

She was extremely beautiful, with delicate and fair skin, regular features, big black eyes, a straight nose, and thin lips. She looked innocent yet charming, especially with her tall stature.

She attracted even more attention in her palace dress, but it was a pity that she did not exude any fairy spirit. It was obvious that she was not a real fairy, but a mortal.

However, even as a mortal, she was enough to attract people's attention, and her appearance immediately attracted many people's onlookers.

These women are all beauties sent by people from various countries in order to establish good relationships with them.

They were just some mediocre women, and Lin Tian was too lazy to even take another look at them.

At this time, another person came over and said to the woman in palace dress with a smile: "So you are the princess of Dongyi Kingdom. I wonder what brings you to the Imperial Garden?" "Oh, my friend is here, so I came here. What's wrong with that?" The princess asked arrogantly with her chin raised.

"Hehehe... Could this friend of yours be His Majesty? Oh, or is it your lover?" "You! What did you say?"

When the palace guard saw the expression on the lady's face, he cursed in his heart: "What a fool! She's just a princess. What's so great about her? When I succeed, I will torture you!" But she didn't say it out loud. Instead, she said humbly: "Nothing. I'll leave first."

Lin Tian didn’t take these things to heart at all. He was just thinking about how to get rid of those people with a reasonable reason. This was the most important thing, and everything else could be put aside for the time being.

Walking to a rockery in the imperial garden, he found a stone slab to sit on, crossed his legs and meditated, Lin Tian continued to regulate his body.

His most important task now is to restore his strength as soon as possible. After all, the reason why several other major countries can still stand is because they have high-level monks in charge.

Of course I can't bear it with my current body.

Although the wind and sand physique recovers quickly, it can only be used to treat external injuries. It is completely useless for internal injuries.

"His Majesty?"

"Um?"

Hearing someone calling him, Lin Tian slowly opened his eyes. It was the princess from before.

It’s just that I don’t have any interest in these romantic affairs.

"Your Majesty, I have a gift for you!" After saying that, she reached into her arms, took out a jade pendant and handed it to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully.

This thing is made of a red gem the size of an egg, with a flame-shaped lotus engraved on it.

The lotus looks lifelike, as if it will fly out of the red gem at any time.

"Your Majesty, this is my father's relic. When he was sick, he asked me to give it to you. I am giving it to you now, and I hope you can use it." The princess looked at Lin Tian's expression and thought that he liked it very much, so she quickly flattered him.

"Oh, in that case, I will accept it. Go back and tell your father that I will remember this kindness." "Then your majesty..."

"You go back first, I want to be alone."

"Okay, then I will leave first!" The princess bowed and retreated. After she walked away, Lin Tian played with the gem in his hand.

This gem is a red gem the size of an egg, with many strange lines carved on its surface. They look like patterns or some other designs.

However, Lin Tian could clearly feel a rich vital energy coming from the gem. This vital energy was extremely pure, even purer than his own cultivation. It should be made from some kind of precious material, and the quality was also quite good. If he could refine and absorb this gem, he would definitely get a huge improvement.

However, it seems too risky to do so, because my physical condition in this life is not suitable for using this thing. It is better to save it for a future life, maybe I can use it.

Lin Tian put the gem into his storage ring and continued to practice.

"Humph, how can this emperor be so heartless? He doesn't even have a reaction. He has beauties and treasures, but he doesn't even have a reaction!"
