Corrupt Creations

Down there, there were many people organizing the whole outside area for the major event that was going to happen tomorrow. They did their utmost to make the whole place feel gorgeous, transpiring supremacy.

Qiao Bao listened to his father, but he wasn\'t able to pay attention on those words at all. His excitement has reached the peak and nothing someone told him, was able to slow down his accelerated heart. Inside his mind, many expectations about Serene\'s realm appearance were running wild and he couldn\'t wait for tomorrow to come.

Actually, every single male living in this continent in his position, would be faring way worse than that. Having the opportunity to marry one of the top three beauties that this world has ever seen, was something worth dying for.

But since he was the Lion Knight, the inheritor of the Lion\'s Pride Golden Palace king position, he was still able to barely maintain a dignifying stance.

"Alright father."

Thye kept having a conversation centered on the events that would be happening tomorrow, until Qiao Xuan felt there was nothing else to say, but just as they finished their talk, Qiao Xuan heard someone knocking on the door of his office.

At an important time like this, only a Lion Guardian would be allowed to do that, so he already knew it must be one of them.

The door opened after Qiao Xuan\'s Mana interacted with it, allowing the person to enter and tell him what was it that required his attention.

From the outside, the Lion Guardian ranked at the second position entered the office room. His name was Qiao Shan and he was the oldest individual still living in the Lion\'s Pride Golden Palace. However, even though he had an older appearance than normal practitioners at his level of strength had, his aura was still solid and strong.

He was a Profound Mana late-stage Cultivator, but differently from all the other practitioners at their sect, he wasn\'t burly, but a bit skinny. His forte, was the fact that he was kind of considered to be the "brains" of the Lion\'s Pride Golden Palace, but that wasn\'t that of difficult position to attain in the middle of a whole sect that was composed of impulsive and instinctual individuals.

"Lion King Xuan; Young Master Bao; everything is ready." Qiao Shan entered and declared.

"Good!" Qiao Xuan turned around and looked at him. There was an excitement on his eyes as well, but his motive for being excited, was the fact that his sect would be getting relatively stronger after tomorrow. Myriad of opportunities were going to open up for them, paving a road for their ascension.

"However, there is a minor matter that I would like to consult you Lion King. It is about a particular thing that has been happening at the StormWind Valley. There were many reports that some wild beasts seemed to be invading some cities there, but everything seems so unreal that it is hard to believe." Qiao Shan said.

"StormWind Valley again...? Ignore everything for now. We don\'t have time to deal with anything happening there right now. Tch... That bunch of useless people that can\'t even protect their own territory..."

"Lion King, you\'re right, we don\'t have time for dealing with that. It\'s just that something seems off... There are so many people reporting the situation, that I think it is something that could even indirectly bother us during the ceremony, although it is highly unprobeable."

"Oh? Do you think so? Since the wise old man Shan says something may happen, let the Seventh and Eighth ranked Lion Guardians act as protectors at the outside gates. They know exactly what to do if something were to happen."

Qiao Shan nodded and said: "I will tell them about your decisions right away but before that, there is another thing that I\'ve got to tell you too. The informants had just sent us a message... The carriage bringing the demon princess has just passed by then. It\'s pretty much confirmed that she will be arriving here by tomorrow."

"Very good! Any news about the Glazed Lake and the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary?"

"My king, those two Higher Grounds seems to be in silence for now, just like we expected. All of this must have been a very unpleasant surprise for them and they are not sure on how to properly react yet. It\'s a pity people like them would never unite themselves like we did with the Demonic Shadow Royal Clan... And they still call us as the prideful ones..."

"Ahaha... You\'re right. Your alliance idea with Velgor was really something helpful for us. Because things like that, that you\'re known as the wise old man Shan."

Qiao Bao heard everything they were talking, but nothing seemed to take him out of his trance. Tomorrow would be the day he has been dreaming of, the day he would be sure to shine brighter than the golden palace the ceremony would take place in.

As they kept discussing about some other things and some other measures that were still pending, at the place called as StormWind Point, the heavy gale covering the whole area, was already painted in crimson.

Creatures inside that area, were lining themselves in a formation that was never seen before. All of them had a crimson glow shinning inside their eyes, giving them a strength that would have been probably impossible for them to attain while growing through normal ways.

Impressively, there was a man right in front of that formation of thousands of beats and he was the one giving the most fearful impression.
