Chapter 997

Antorias was shocked, not because the portal was cut down but because he sensed the Slayer Energy from the blade. He looked into Tang Shaoyang\'s eyes, trying to find out if it was Slayer Energy.         

"It\'s truly Slayer Energy," Antorias opened his eyes wide, staring at the floating red blade. Then he kept glancing between the blade and Tang Shaoyang, back and forth.     

The shock lasted for a moment before Antorias\'s grin returned. He had a wide grin, casting a pitiful gaze at Tang Shaoyang, "Fuhuhu…. I have lost interest in you and this world. What\'s the point of taking a world that soon will become a battlefield?"     

Tang Shaoyang did not understand Antorias\' words, \'Earth will become a battlefield because of my Slayer Energy?\' It did not make sense at all.     

"What do you know about Slayer Energy?"     

"Kuhuhuhu…." Antorias let out a giggle, "Do you think I will tell you just because you ask me? This is interesting, very very interesting. I will not spoil you; let it be a surprise for you in the future."     

Tang Shaoyang tried to read Antorias\'s emotions, but he got nothing out of it. He could not tell what Antorias felt right now. It was not a shock anymore, more amusement and delight, but he did not understand why. Slayer Energy was for sure powerful, strong enough that he could beat people above his rank much easier.     

"Don\'t get confused because you will find it out soon. Also don\'t miss me because we will meet again sooner than you expected. I hope you are ready to face my armies by that time," Those were Antorias\' last words before he closed his eyes. Yu Shun\'s body went weak afterward.     

The first thing Tang Shaoyang did was to open Yu Shun\'s eyes. Yu Shun\'s eyes returned to normal, with white eyes and black pupils. He checked Yu Shun\'s heart with Spirit Eyes and did not find the core anymore. The core disappeared as if it was never there. To make sure, he checked Yu Shun\'s body more thoroughly, from top to bottom. Not just the core, but the dark energy disappeared from Yu Shun\'s body.     

Tang Shaoyang breathed out a sigh of relief and picked up the body. He looked at the missing hand and let out a sigh of regret. He did not have a choice but to cut the portal instead of letting Antorias escape with Yu Shun\'s body.     

"I will have to apologize when you wake, I guess," He muttered in a low voice. He was about to bring Yu Shun to the Healer Division HQ, but then he realized a lot of people had gathered around the crater. These people were forming a circle, covering the crater, and he recognized the uniform. These people were TEIS, and they were guarding the crater so no civilians could get closer.     

Tang Shaoyang walked up the crater, "What are you guys doing here? What about the zombies?"     

He felt like there was no need for TEIS to cover up that he fought Yu Shun. It was not the real Yu Shun, after all.     

"We greet Your Majesty Emperor," Dozens of TEIS bowed and greeted Tang Shaoyang, "We are ordered by Commissioner General Kang Jiayi to arrest Sir Yu Shun."     

Tang Shaoyang was caught off guard by the decision, "For what?"     

"Sir Yu Shun colluded with General Su Hong for a rebellion," It was another shocking discovery. He did not know there was a rebellion in his army, "General Su Hong and the rebels captured Tarrior Barrack at the border. Marshal Alton led the Tarriors to take back the barrack."     

The person did not answer Tang Shaoyang\'s question. How did Kang Jiayi know that Yu Shun was involved in the rebellion? But he quickly picked up why Yu Shun was suspected as one of the rebels. It was because of the zombies that suddenly appeared in the capital. Yu Shun was the only one who could control the zombies and the only person with the authority to bring zombies inside the city.     

"I will deal with Yu Shun myself," Tang Shaoyang waved his hand, "What about the zombies? Have we subdued the zombies?"     

"The zombies stopped moving ten minutes ago, Your Majesty. We have evacuated the people to the emergency shelter next to TEIS HQ."     

"Good job. You can leave now,"     

The TEIS bowed once more before leaving the area. Tang Shaoyang did not stay as he also rushed toward Healer Division HQ. He arrived at the Healer Division HQ within a minute, "Get me a healer quick! We need to heal him!" He yelled as soon as he entered the HQ.     

A healer approached him and led him to a room. As he followed the healer, he noticed a lot of people injured. Some with Tarrior Uniforms, some were in TEIS uniforms, and most civilians occupied the bed. He put Yu Shun on the bed as the healer quickly cast a heal on Yu Shun\'s bleeding hand.     

"I have stopped the bleeding, Your Majesty."     

"Do you think he will wake up soon?" Tang Shaoyang asked. If Yu Shun woke up soon, then he would stay. He did not want Yu Shun to do something reckless with no one watching the young man. The worst situation was that Yu Shun blamed himself for all the injured people around him and decided to suicide. That was the worst scenario, and he did not want to gamble it by leaving the young man alone.         

Unfortunately, he asked the wrong person, "I apologize, Your Majesty, but I don\'t know when he will wake up. We need a doctor for a further check-up, but we don\'t have an available doctor right now."     

Healers could heal the injuries, but they did not have the knowledge or ability to diagnose the patient. They were healers because they had healing skills, and they were not equipped with medical knowledge. Healing was potent, but there were many things that could not be solved by healing, and that was where Doctor and Alchemist took part.     

Tang Shaoyang nodded, "You can leave,"     

The healer bowed and left to attend to more incoming injured people. As they spoke, more and more injured people came to the Healer Division HQ.     

Tang Shaoyang sat next to the bed and looked at Yu Shun\'s pale complexion. He felt like he had failed as the Emperor. While Yu Shun fell into Antorias\' scheme was not entirely on him, but he took a large part in it. Antorias used Yu Shun\'s insecurities, and he was the cause of the young man\'s insecurities. He felt that if he had paid more attention to Yu Shun, this would not happen. If he could control his lust, this would never happen. Again, he felt like he had failed as a leader.     

More than that, another rebellion occurred. He closed his eyes as he tried to remember the name. General Su Hong rebelled against him, meaning the man was dissatisfied with his leadership, or else why would General Su Hong rebel? The name was familiar to him, but he just did not remember the face. Of course, for someone to climb up to General, meaning the man had done a lot for the empire.     

\'Am I not good enough to be an Emperor?\' Tang Shaoyang could not help but question himself. His heart wavered as he thought of the past, the reason why he wanted to be an emperor. He thought about it, and he realized it was just an impulse. There was no need for him to be emperor. He just needed to be strong enough so he would not be on the lower-bottom rung anymore.     

\'The moment you lose your confidence, that\'s when you fail as a leader. You are an Emperor, not a caretaker. Yu Shun\'s insecurity is not your fault because you know nothing about his problem. Are you going to care about every single person in your empire? Attending every single one of their needs? Is that the Emperor\'s duty?\' Rosalie, the Flame Empress, spoke after listening to Tang Shaoyang\'s thoughts.     

She did not mean to console Tang Shaoyang, but that was her honest thought. Not every single problem in the empire was the emperor\'s fault.     

\'Also, don\'t ever think that General Su Hong is dissatisfied with your leadership. Can\'t it be because of his ambition? He might be envious of you and want to take everything from you? Can you also guarantee that he is better for the Emperor position? The fact he decided to rebel against you is proof that he is just a greedy b*stard, not a capable leader. If you are not good enough to be Emperor, do you think people will follow you? So you must never lose confidence in yourself because the moment you lose your confidence, it\'s the moment you fail as a leader! People make mistakes, and people learn from those mistakes. Isn\'t that what you always say to your people?\'     

Tang Shaoyang let out a chuckle after hearing Rosalie\'s speech in his head, "I am glad that my first class is Spirit Contractor, or else I may have lost in my path without you guys. Thank you, Rosalie."     

"What happened to Yu Shun?" Tang Shaoyang heard Kang Xue\'s voice from afar. He looked up, and the girl rushed toward him. Luo Lan was with Kang Xue.     

"He should be fine for now. The God of Undead Antorias has left the body, but I don\'t know when he will wake up," Tang Shaoyang noticed that Luo Lan grabbed the missing arm. Then he explained why the hand was missing, "I have to cut the portal, or else Antorias will escape with Yu Shun\'s body. I am sorry, Luo Lan."     

"No… No… No…" Luo Lan shook her head repeatedly, "This is not your fault, Your Majesty. If I had paid enough attention to him, then this would not happen. I am so busy with the academy that I realize it is too late. If only I was always next to him…." She started to sob while holding Yu Shun\'s remaining hand.     

"I leave Yu Shun in your care. Don\'t leave him alone with Luo Lan. I am afraid that Yu Shun will do something extreme if he wakes up and realizes that he is the cause of the chaos in the city," Tang Shaoyang whispered.     

"Where are you going?" Kang Xue asked in a whisper.     

Tang Shaoyang\'s eyes turned sharp, "I am going to take care of the rebel. It seems people have forgotten what I am capable of!"
