Seeing that the situation became more and more chaotic Lilith's father shouted "Silence!"

With his order, everyone inside the room became silent, everyone was now looking at him.

​​

He started speaking "To verify your doubts I will have grand elder Fragrance use her spiritual dream to check up our guest, Mary's memories."

He then looks at Mary and asks "Mary is it okay for you?"

Mary bows and said "Your clan have changed out destiny causing us to obtain our human form."

"Checking up on my memories wouldn't harm me one bit, so your honors feel free to check if the words I have said are my true feelings."

Lilith's father then nodded towards a person with clothes covering all over her body, the person exudes an aura that seems to draw everyone in, not to mention she also exudes a sense of fragrance that pleases everyone.

Fragrance then puts her hand on Mary's head as she starts to watch her memories.

She starts to shake as an expression of incredulous appears on her face, she then faced everyone and said "What she had said is what she truly felt."

"Actually after watching her memories, even I felt that it was probable that her son might be the very person that induced that great phenomenon."

The elders started discussing, on the other hand Lilith's father raised his eyebrow as he asks "Is he really that amazing?"

Fragrance nodded her head "From her memories, I have obtained the information that her son is only considered 7 and a half but his intelligence is considered the level of an adult member of our clan."

"His battle prowess and the rate of his growth is also quite shocking, judging from her memories, he is much more talented than you"

Princess Lilith was shocked, she always saw her father as a figure unmatched by anyone.

Now hearing that someone is much more talented than her father shocks her to her core.

Her father looks like he is interested on Shadowslash just as he was about to ask more, his expression quickly changed as he stood up and looks at the entrance.

The elders were confused but the grand elders reacted differently, just like Lilith's father they also stood up as they look at the entrance with a solemn expression.

Footsteps could be heard as an old man hold him a crane entered, behind the old man were 12 fox tails and around him were wisps that floats about like spirits.

Princess Lilith shouted in a shocked voice "Grandfather! you have returned?!"

The old man smiled in a tender manner as he looks at Lilith, he then waves his hand to her telling her to come to him.

Princess Lilith immediately flew towards him as she hugs him tightly, on the other hand all the grand elders bows to this person and shouted "Greetings to Ancestor!"

The elders were shocked before immediately kneeling to this person, the ones that were still dazed were Shadowslash's sisters, aunt and mother.

Princess Lilith's father smiled as he bows to this old man and said "It's been a long time father."

The old man nodded, he then spoke "I have returned to this world because of the great commotion that the phenomenon have caused."

Lilith's father was shocked he then asks "Do you mean that the phenomenon also affected those from the outer world?"

The old man nodded "Yes, during the investigation from the The All-Seing Sect, it was verified that the one who caused the ruler awakening phenomenon is a fox, even though the aura has both the fox and dragon clan aura, ultimately the person is a fox."

"I hurried back to this world immediately realising that our clan might be put in danger because of the significance of the phenomenon."

Princess Lilith who was in her grandfather's embrace was confused, she always felt that her father is somewhat afraid of her but she always thought it was just the act of a child seeing his parent but now upon seeing how the grand elders act, it seems that the legend saying that her grandfather is considered one of the guardian of this world is true.

Everyone inside the room were startled, the old man continue "Everyone other than the grand elders leave this room as we have something important to discuss."

The elders were startled but Lilith's father

followed up with a shout "Leave!"

Seeing his expression and the expression of the grand elders, the elders looks at each other, they then bows to the old man and Lilith's father before leaving.

Once they left, the old man snaps his fingers as the entire room were enveloped by a powerful barrier.

He then looks at his son and asks calmly "Why have you let them stay?"

Lilith's father smiles as he said in confidence "I think you would be shocked if I told you that they are the family members of the person that induced that heavenly phenomenon."

The old man was startled he then looks at the girls before flashing next to them.

It was so natural but for Princess Lilith and the girls they were shocked by this.

The old man then brought out a crystal orb as the orb started turning golden, immediately an image of a fox and dragon appeared as they both let's out a cry causing the orb to crack and explode.

The old man was shocked, he then nodded as he said "It seems that your conjecture is true, these ladies are connected to the individual that induced that heaven shaking phenomenon."

Hearing this the people inside the room looks at each and they could see the amazement in each other's eyes.

Lilith's father then asks "Father, I have been meaning to ask you this but everyone in this room are ignorant of what is the meaning of that heavenly phenomenon, the only thing we knew is that the phenomenon have forced everyone of us to kneel no matter it was children or an old monster none were spared except for the infants."

The old man nodded as he sighed and said "Actually the very reason that phenomenon happened is still causing me to doubt about my very own life."

The others looks at him as they realized that the old man kept on sighing as if he was lamenting something.

"The birth of that phenomenon would also meant that the world have given birth to a ruler."

The people looks at each other, being a bit confused as they looks at Lilith's father, even though they did not say anything their meaning were clear, Lilith's father is also considered a ruler.

The old man shook his head and said "The meaning on my words isn't as little as a ruler on a coupon of island, what I meant that the ruler of an entire world, a natural born ruler that the heaven deems worthy of blessing."

There was a pin drop silence on the entire room, the gravity of this situation is clearly too much for everyone to take.

"This selected ruler is also considered as the world's guardian that meant that this world is going to go through a crisis that determines if it should continue to exist or not."

Another bomb was dropped to everyone inside the room as they realized that their world might cease to exist on the future.

"The greatest chance to survive this apocalyptic event is to submit to the ruler because the ruler could use the power of the world to fight against the things that threatens the world."

"If the chosen ruler could unify the whole world under him then his strength would soar and the chances of the world surviving would also increase."

This puts the grand elders into a corner as they both wanted to survive but they also wanted to keep their independence.

Just as they were incredibly conflicted about this, the old man spoke "Why are you all still hesitating? This world will be once again open to other worlds."

"Our world is considers still on its infancy stage, considering the old worlds, our world is just too weak to defend itself."

"If we just stand by and do nothing, then our world will be destroyed, even if we flee to other worlds we would be considered as a small group compared to the other families living on medium sized world."

The grand elder sucked on a cold breath as they look at each other with hesitation.

After a while their eyes became more determined as they all spoke "We decided to submit to the chosen ruler, may he send our clan to prosperity."

The old man smiled, he then looks at Mary and said "Young lady what is your relationship with the chosen ruler? Is he your lover?"

Mary was shocked, she quickly shook her head and said "Don't say something that shameless!"

After realising that she lost her composure, she quickly bows to the old man and apologizes.
