But there was something else that worried Julian.
Although he was in the Northern Capital, he was also paying close attention to what was happening in the Southern Region. Among the many major events that had happened in the Southern Region yesterday, there was one that concerned him. That matter concerned him more than the silver army that Allen had sent to support Spear City.
A member of the Corpse Vulture Army discovered that Allen was fighting with an expert at Ark Harbor in the Southern Region. Both sides displayed extremely powerful battle prowess. According to the information brought back by the intelligence officer, Julian made a slight assessment and concluded that Allen and the expert's battle prowess had reached the level of his father, Tangerio, or even higher.
After that, the two of them headed for the primeval forest where Elinar was. Not long after, a change occurred in the forest. The Corpse Vulture didn't dare to enter the forest at all. It only observed from the mountain peak far away from the forest and saw the strange phenomena in the middle of the forest. After the phenomenon disappeared, he carefully entered the forest and found a petrified dragon corpse. Even though the dragon was already dead, the remaining aura was still suffocating. By extension, Allen, who was able to kill a dragon, had already reached an incomprehensible level.
After reading the information sent back by the Corpse Vulture, Julian destroyed it and strictly forbade any information from being leaked. Anyone who violated it would be punished by military law.
This was the greatest uneasiness in Julian's heart. The young Count of the past had returned to the empire after disappearing for a period of time, but he was already so powerful that it made people feel uneasy. It was easy to infer from the intelligence in the Southern Region that Allen had made a breakthrough in a short period of time. If Julian knew that the battle prowess that Allen had displayed at Ark Harbor had far surpassed that of the Ten Saints, his judgment of Allen would be lower by a level, and his uneasiness would only be even greater now. Julian could not understand what kind of realm a Sovereign was, but his battle prowess was even higher than his father's, and by a lot, it had already made him unable to sleep or eat in peace.
Those who possessed such battle prowess were all the rulers of a country, the experts of a country. If such a person was a member of the royal family, he would already be sitting on the throne of the king. If it was someone outside the royal family, then no matter who sat on the throne, they would feel deeply uneasy.
Therefore, when he heard that Allen was going north, not only was Julian not happy, but he also felt deeply worried.
Jomo, the old fox, was the most observant. He had more or less heard about the combat strength that Allen had displayed in the Southern Region, but he didn't know as much as Julian. In his heart, he only placed Allen on the same level as the Ten Saints. Thus, in his opinion, a marquis comparable to the Ten Saints coming to Bei Du was not an exaggeration to say that it was a threat.
He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, if you think it is necessary, I can help you sound out the marquis and see what his intentions are."
This was exactly what Julian wanted. Although he had this thought, he couldn't say it out loud. After all, Allen had done him a meritorious deed that day. If he were to speculate on a marquis, he was afraid that he would become a laughing stock. It was great that Jomo brought it up now, but he still acted a little reserved and said, "This …"
"Your Majesty." The Prime Minister took a step forward and said, "Marquis Allen has always been loyal to the Empire, be it in public or private. I don't think it's appropriate for Lord Jomo to do this. "
Roderick snorted coldly and said, "What's wrong? I think it's necessary." What was the purpose of a Marquis of the Southern Region going north when there was no war in the imperial capital? Did His Majesty summon him? No, then it was necessary to ask him what he was doing going north at this time. If I were to say it, don't let him enter the imperial capital. Just intercept him at the New Great Wall. "
"Roderick, are you sharing His Majesty's worries? Or are you causing trouble? "Nabott shook his head.
"Nonsense, I am naturally sharing His Majesty's worries. When I led the troops into battle, you were still hiding in your study and reading, Prime Minister. "
Nabott wasn't angry either. He shook his head and said, "If Marquis Allen had any ill intentions, he wouldn't have escorted His Majesty and us out of the Northern Region that day. If His Majesty were to test him now, I'm afraid it would chill the hearts of others. His Majesty must consider it carefully. "
Julian waved his hand and said, "Alright, there's no need for you to say anything else. I have my own plans. Let's go."
He looked at Jomo, intentionally or unintentionally.
Jomo immediately understood.
Julian couldn't say it in front of the officials, but in reality, the emperor was very worried about Allen. That glance just now was to let him do it, but Jomo also knew that he definitely couldn't mention Julian's name as if it was his own doing.
He already had a plan in his heart.
The wind was strong, and Allen was sitting on the Silver Eagle. They had already flown past the city known as the Imperial Pillar Hall and were now heading deeper into the north. For some reason, he thought of what Edward had said before he left.
'Young Master, you're going north this time. Either you directly ask Julian to step down from the throne and become the ruler of the empire himself. Or he would keep his duty and treat himself as a Marquis of the Empire. If nothing unexpected happens, Julian will definitely make a move. It's impossible for the Imperial Capital to ignore the Southern Territory, so what you do in the Southern Territory will more or less reach Julian's ears. He will be afraid of you, but he's the ruler of a country. Based on my understanding of him, he won't do anything to you personally. Instead, he'll borrow someone else's hand. This kind of method is normal. '
'My suggestion is that if that's the case, you might as well suppress it with lightning. But you can be disrespectful to everyone, but you can't be disrespectful to Julian. If nothing unexpected happens, Julian will probably bestow you the title of Duke to appease you. '
'If you become the Grand Duke of the South, I'll be able to do a lot of things. At that time, even if you're not on Planet Heaven, it won't be so easy for Julian to target your territory. '
"In short, I'll go north this time. Either I raze the imperial capital and reshuffle the structure of Bailey; or I'll become a Grand Duke that can intimidate a region. Even if it's just superficial respect, it will make Julian feel a lot more at ease. "
Allen had never thought of razing the imperial capital, even if he could easily do it with his current abilities. But it was precisely because of this that he wasn't interested. He had already achieved his main purpose in coming to Planet Heaven this time. Now, stopping the dusk of the universe was the most important thing. If it weren't for the fact that Edward and the others had already taken root on Planet Heaven, in order to let these people live a more stable life in the future, Allen wouldn't even have to go north to greet Julian. He would have directly brought the Silver-Winged Legion to kill the burning army that had already headed west.
Edward could be said to be flawless, but he didn't know that Princess Shu Sha in the imperial capital was now his subordinate. Thinking about it, Shana would have to follow him everywhere in the future, but with her identity as the Princess Consort, Julian would probably feel ashamed. This was probably even more serious. For the time being, Allen hadn't thought of a way to deal with this matter properly, so he could only take one step at a time.
Suddenly, there was an aura in front of him. That aura actually had a bit of the smell of Eboynes.
