Villain : I reincarnated as a Prince! Shouldn't I have a Harem?

"No, your Highness, I didn't ean to offend you. I just felt that taking your help would be like taking a shortcut that would not provide peace to the dead members of my Family. I have to carry out this revenge on my own!"

Well, Ashen knew that it was the world's will's doing. It didn't want Bai Leng to come with him.

He also knew that if he tried to force Bai Leng, The World's Will will simply create problems for him, rather than that, Ashen wanted to leave peacefully.

Killing Bai Leng would be easier if he just stayed in the Crimson Sky Sect, but Ashen wanted to take precautions.

He went ahead and helped Bai Leng stand up by grabbing his shoulders.

"Don't worry Bai Leng, I was just testing you. I wanted to know if you had any plans of going against me. I just want a promise from you!"

Bai Leng, with a puzzled expression, muttered: "Promise? What Promise does Your Highness want from me?"

Ashen, smiling kindly, informed: "I want you to promise me that once your revenge is complete, you will join my faction. Also that you'll not join any of my sibling's faction!"

A smile appeared on Bai Leng's face as he nodded: "I promise, Your Highness."

"Alright good!" Ashen nodded in satisfaction before shifting his gaze to Chen Lao: "You can leave!"

Chen Lao nodded before leaving with Bai Leng.

"We should also take our leave."

Ashen suggested before standing in the middle of the teleportation formation.

The other ladies and Feng Xue also followed before vanishing from sight.

"Take care, my daughter..." Feng Tianlong murmured, saying goodbye to his daughter.

Meanwhile, In the Shang Clan's teleportation hall,

A bright light gushed out of the hall, manifesting Ashen and his companions.

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Multiple Guards rushed into the hall as they surrounded them.

Ashen looked around, a bit astonished by the size of the hall.

The room was a lot larger than he had expected since it was only a teleportation hall.

He then looked at the guards as he was once again taken aback.

Most of the Guards were core formation realm experts while the others were origin realm cultivators.

Even the royal family didn't have such a powerful guard force in the castle.

Soon, a man entered the room, carrying a powerful presence as guards made way for him and knelt on the ground.

This man had silvery white hair and a matching goatee beard, he resembled the Dragon Emperor but his expression and appearance were not as fearsome as Shang Long.

He had a lean stature and a smiling expression, adorned in white silk clothes with golden embroidery that resembled a dragon.

He stopped in front of Ashen as he greeted him joyfully: "Nephew Ashen, It's been a long time since I last saw you. You've grown into a handsome young man. Sorry, I couldn't attend your spirit awakening ceremony!"

Ashen reciprocated the greeting with a smile, respectfully bowing: "Ashen greets Uncle Shang Jiao!"

"Hahaha, there is no need to be so formal between family. Come let's go to the Throne room. Everyone is already waiting for your arrival!"

Ashen nodded in agreement, leaving after his uncle along with his companions.

After a while, they stopped in front of a huge golden gate with two dragons engraved on it.

Two guards were standing in front of the gate who soon opened it by channeling their qi in the dragons' tails.

The Gate opened swiftly as a long pathway along with multiple seats alongside the pathway came into view.

Shang Jiao and the others went inside, treading on this pathway before stopping in front of Shang Long who sat on his throne majestically.

"Father, I've brought Ashen!" Shang Jiao informed, kneeling on one knee.

Ashen also followed him as he greeted his grandfather: "Ashen greets grandfather Shang Long!"

This Throne room was filled with a powerful aura of multiple people.

Almost all the elders of the Shang Clan were present in this room.

Ashen also spotted his mother looking at him with a worried expression while sitting on the throne located on the lower right side from his grandfather's throne.

Even the uncle who brought him here was an emperor realm expert.

Most gazes were full of doubt and an intent to assess him.

They were already attempting to gauge Ashen's strength.

"Hahaha, My dearest Grandson, You have come as you promised. Now, let's begin with what you've to offer. Your mother explained to us that you want to take part in the fight for the throne."

Ashen nodded in response before giving his reply with a smile: "Grandfather, I know that Shang Clan is a very powerful clan, even more powerful than the royal family if we only look at the Emperor realm cultivators."

"Gaining the support of such a clan is going to be difficult, but I am ready to face any trial you've to throw at me for me to gain your support."

"From the Shang Clan, Only I am a legitimate heir to the throne, so I am your only option if you want to participate in the fight for the throne."

"Even if you say that the Shang Clan does not desire to take part in the Princes and Princess' fight, then too, the other three sacred clans are going to support their family's Prince and Princess!"

"The First Brother already has the support of the Tang clan and the Second Brother is supported by the Lei Clan. Though the Xue clan hasn't announced who they are going to support between the Third sister and Fifth Brother, they will surely participate too."

"Now, If only Shang Clan stays behind, wouldn't that put you at a disadvantage if one of the Prince or Princess supported by another Sacred Clan becomes the next emperor?"

Shang Long nodded, thinking for a second before questioning: "Then Can you assure us that you have a chance of becoming the next Emperor?"

"Don't you only have a 1-star spirit, a white snake?"

"Who will gamble on you knowing that? I can do that since I am your grandfather, but what about the whole clan? They'll not give their support when they know that the prince they are supporting only has a 1-star spirit?"

Ashen smiled confidently at his question before questioning back:

"Then what if I have an 8-star Spirit? Will the clan support me then?
