Mixed Blessing System



Upon receiving Daemon's orders, the men in his group immediately moved, beginning their attack on the imperial palace.

More than 15 Nascent Soul Transcendents appeared on the outskirts of that estate, attacking the defensive barriers in their path with tools that did not exist in the entire empire.

These were weapons that had been developed using the technology of one of the most difficult enemies the Leopoldine family had faced in the past!

Because of how advanced that group had been in the past, Daemon's team found it very easy to destroy the enemy defenses.

When the first and most complicated barriers were broken down, Daemon showed himself close to his men, making the experts in the surrounding area shudder at the sight of him there.

"Damn it!"

"Daemon! How dare you return?" A level 17 cultivator from the imperial family shouted, not believing that this person had returned while the emperor was still in this city.

The last time he had caused chaos in this city, Daemon had said that he would not return until the emperor died.

Daemon was very strong, but the emperor had ways of dealing with him, so everyone thought this criminal would keep his word.

But little did they know that Daemon had only said such a thing because his son was about to be born then, and he knew that he would have some of his attention diverted in the short term.

The old emperor was also already at the end of his life, so putting his plans on hold would not be bad since it would be easier for him to achieve what he wanted once this old man died.

But Daemon hadn't wholeheartedly promised not to return here at the moment, so he wasn't bothered by someone shouting against him.

He simply advanced towards the interior of that palace, causing chaos on his way while waiting for no one.

He knew that the old emperor would notice his passage through this place in a short time and would come to confront him. So he wanted to accomplish his goals there as quickly as possible!

Given how strong his subordinates were compared to the members and subordinates of the imperial family, they alone could entertain the strongest ones in the surrounding area.

Soon, Daemon and his right hand split up inside that property, heading toward their targets!

...

"What? Daemon is attacking us?" The second Prince heard this and immediately paled, remembering the last time he had seen that man.

"Yes, we must protect you in a safe room, Your Highness. He will probably try to act against us!" One of Klaus' bodyguards fearfully said this to him.

They had expected some reaction from Daemon because of Lothur's arrest, but attacking them was something dire, and these people couldn't help but fear for the prince's life.

Daemon was almost as strong as the emperor, so if he caught up with them, there would be nothing they could do to defend this local heir!

Hence, one of them was already carrying the Second Prince to a safe room while the others activated defensive measures on the way.

...

Meanwhile, Lars Leopoldine was also being moved by his men to safety, pale from his fear of Daemon.

He feared this person would one day return and take everything he had. Precisely because of this, he had planned against Lothur, who could one day become as strong as his father and increase the danger to Lars' interests.

But by failing, Lars would be attacked even without Lothur in his possession!

That was the worst, so he was doubly disappointed!

And as he expected, Daemon went in search of him before anyone else on that estate!

Appearing at the Third Prince's mansion, Daemon immediately took out the guards in the surrounding area and then destroyed the defensive formations there with a silver glove in one of his hands.

Seeing this coming his way, Lars almost lost the strength in his body, facing this man head-on for the first time.

Previously he had just watched his father dealing with Daemon, but this criminal was there for him this time!

"Damn it, Daemon! What are you doing?" He shouted as he noticed that there wasn't much else in his enemy's way, and he would fall into his hands one way or another.

Daemon had a cold smile on his face and said. "What am I doing? This is the punishment you deserve, Lars. When you act against the weaker, isn't it natural for the stronger to go out and seek justice? That's the oldest rule there is!"

"Bullshit! Lothur has escaped! How can I be responsible for anything?" Lars brandished, feeling wronged for suffering the consequences of a failed plan.

"And just for that, I'm not going to kill you," Daemon commented as he finally got past the last few defenses around where Lars was standing.

As he realized this, the men there to protect the Third Prince swallowed their saliva, breaking into a cold sweat.

One of them then said. "Daemon, don't do this, or His Imperial Majesty will pursue you to the end! Take the opportunity he gave you last time!"

"Tsk! Shut up!" Daemon moved one of his hands towards that man, and immediately after that, that man was thrown away while dark energy pressed him against the wall he crashed into.

"Aaaagh!"

"Daemon, think about it. This is the family we're talking about here!" Another of Lars' bodyguards tried a more peaceful approach. "His Majesty has made it clear more than once that he would not accept his children fighting! Will you disregard those orders?"

"I am free for me to do what I want! I've become stronger than the old man!" Daemon laughed as he displayed his cultivation pressure that was much stronger than that of several years ago.

"Lars, you acted against my son not out of fear of him joining me but out of fear of the old man choosing Lothur as his heir. That's why I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" Daemon said, looking uglily at his younger brother.

Daemon was actually the First Prince of Leopoldine, the emperor's son who had incredible talents but was uncontrollable since childhood.

His name was Daniel Leopoldine, but when expelled from his family centuries ago, he earned the nickname Daemon, a reference to his uncivil actions and chaotic, demon-like attitudes.

Few people in the entire empire knew about this, as it was a great shame for the imperial family.

Because of this, Lars feared Lothur, the son of the one who had been the first heir of the empire, someone the emperor seemed to have strange interests in.

Even after expelling him from the imperial family, the emperor had always given Daemon a chance, even with all his crimes.

For all this, Lars had acted against his nephew.

Unfortunately for him, this time, he had gone too far!

"Daemon..." He swallowed his saliva as he saw his older brother approaching.
