The spectators involuntarily knelt down. The new monarch of the current era was unexpected, but a few had thought of this already. With Han Li's reemergence in the Nine Heavens, things shouldn't go as they planned.

Many experts felt blessed to see the a new era opening by the monarch. With her succeeding the will, the Celestial Race Clan's status would ultimately soar to the sky, being able to compete for the rights.

The thing was, she was currently a disowned clansman of the clan and no one knew if they'd be decisive enough to support her and accept her again. After all, though they didn't release public statements, the information wasn't confidential.

"Eragail Dao Monarch!" Someone shouted. Realizing the amazing name, everyone had also shouted the same. It was like a praise for the monarch.

"Eragail Dao Monarch. That's a satisfying name." Jin Rou nodded. It was perfectly suited for Riyan.

"Then I shall be called as that." Riyan knelt down. With his approval, she was now going to be known as Eragail Dao Monarch of this era.

Ryan came over and hugged his sister and said, "Congratulations in your ascension, sis!"

Of all people, Ryan was the happiest. After all, his big sister had now the foundation and strength to fight for her deserved place in the clan. If not for those scheming persons calling her out, she would have stayed in the clan.

While it was true that Riyan was a child born from a different mother, it didn't mean that she was not eligible to stay in the clan. As a matter of fact, her father had given him a comfortable place to stay in, was loved and spoiled. It's just that despite the countless efforts of the father, he couldn't stop the other people who seek power to chase her.

Riyan was the best candidate to become the future head of the clan. With her talent and disposition, she was very suited to manage and the ancestors were in favor of her.

Unfortunately, the other camp didn't feel that way so they created a plot to make Riyan fall.

But now, who would dare to stop her?

"I have to stabilize my strength first. I'll be away for a short while." Riyan said. She could feel the raging sensation inside her. It was naturally to normalize her dao first before returning.

"Yes, that's what you must do." Jin Rou nodded, "This is all the help I can give you. Whether you can go far or near will be up to you."

Ryan felt emotional and asked, "Will you still pay us a visit in our clan?"

"I will if I have the time. Currently, there is more important matter that I have to attend." Jin Rou said with a normal tone. He should supposed to pay the clan a visit. Unfortunately, the Hidden Majestic Valley spelled a pressing crisis that he must check himself.

"I understand, Young Master. Please take care of yourself." Ryan nodded. He knew that the young master couldn't help them everytime. It was already a gift of heavens that he helped his sister become someone everyone would look up to.

"This will be where we part ways. Remember my instructions, little girl." Jin Rou smiled. Unless there was a catastrophe fall upon Riyan, she was deemed to be one of the most brilliant monarchs of the world in the future.

He had shown the path to take, it's up to the new monarch to braze herself for the challenge.

After the ascension ceremony, everyone left the plains and spread the news of what happened.

Jin Rou was walking alone. Fog had also left because he had important matters to attend to. He already gained enough insights when observing Jin Rou, so it's time to leave lest he wouldn't be able to do so.

Sylvianna popped out of her personal space and snorted at Jin Rou, "You're alone once again."

"I have been always alone. This path I'm taking is filled with aloneness, it's not new to me." Jin Rou smirked. He was already adept in acting like the real Han Li as he fully adapted to his memories and emotions.

"True, you're the only one crazy enough to take this path. No, a few has tried but they succumbed to darkness in the end. You are one hell of a fellow." Sylvianna sighed. She had experienced numerous eras that too many to count. She had seen millions of catastrophes and faced countless life and death situations. By glance, she could see the surface level of what Jin Rou experienced in the past.

"The darkness is too tempting. The rich and power it gives are enough to tempt even the oldest fossils alive." Jin Rou said. There were many times that Han Li faced the darkness and was a bit tempted. But he never gave in and pursue his path.

"Are you going to fight it out with the old man?" Sylvianna asked. In their level, there was no reason to name people who they were talking about.

"I will. That's always an adage of mine. I will kill that old man no matter how many times it take." Jin Rou said. The source was within that place so he needed to take a trip and defeat that person, "Unlike your family, I'm not planning on giving up because I see the vast difference between us."

"Are you picking a fight?" Sylvianna was provoked. Her race's cowardice was her reverse scale thus her reaction was normal.

"I'm just telling the truth. With your family's power and resources, you could have at least put up a decent fight during that time. But, what did your father do? Must I tell it for you to remember?" Jin Rou casted a side eye. He wasn't afraid of the currency Sylvianna. After all, even the deity managed to capture her alive. Although it might be a bit difficult, he was confident in defeating this little girl.

"You sound cocky." Sylvianna wanted to fight it out with him. Unfortunately, she was aware that she was powerless to do so.. In the end, she could only sigh and said, "He did that for our family."
