Chapter 1934: Chapter 1: Original Pioneer Space
Huge floating blocks.
"Gaer, Dad wants you to come over."
Sitting on the edge of the Moving Royal Court, Gaer was originally watching the grass on the prairie sway like waves, then rise again, moved by the wind stirred up by the Court. But at this moment, a familiar voice rang out, making him sigh deeply, "Got it, brother."
The white-haired, wolf-eared young man stood up a bit angrily, rubbing his face, "The old man clearly knows I have no chance, why is he calling me over? Does he want me to get killed first?"
"He has to see someone."
Gaerâs brother, Stern Moon Grand General, Gonta Ximor, stroked his beard. He appeared somewhat like a behemoth with a wolfâs head and a human body, but upon closer inspection, it was just an illusion created by too much hair; he was still human, not a beastman with beast traits replacing human characteristics.
Under the governance of the Ximor Royal Court, regardless of whether one is a Beastman, a Demihuman, a Human, an Elf Dwarf, a Fae or even one of the Descendants of the Sea (as long as they can find the sea), Magical Beasts and Different Races can all compete fairly with everyone and become Chieftains or Generals.
And within the Ximor Royal Court, whether one appears more like a Demihuman or a Beastman doesnât really matter. Historically, having a beast-headed Great Khan is not unheard of; in fact, people are especially fond of a Great Khan who resembles the Royal Courtâs Totem.
After all, not everyone knows what the Great Khan looks like across generations, but everyone knows what the Heaven-Devouring White Wolf looks like.
Gonta Ximor has always regretted that he is not truly beast-headed, just overly hairy. As for his younger brother, who is young enough to be his son, his attitude is very much like that of Royal Court People.
- He likes him a lot, but the more he likes him, the harsher he hits.
Smack - A heavy slap landed on Gaerâs shoulder, the sound of bones cracking clearly audible. Gonta Ximor laughed heartily under his brotherâs angry gaze, "Just go, Dad looks like this right now; he definitely wonât meet me or the two older sisters and younger brother. Itâs just you, this little weakling, who wonât cause any objections when meeting anyone."
"Otherwise, if it were me, if I went in this morning, Iâd have to fight several duels by evening, and that would be unbearable."
"Like I can bear it now."
A bit annoyed, he clicked his cracked shoulder blade back into place, Gaer frowned, "Do you really believe the old man is critically ill? Who knows what heâs up to."
"Even if heâs not ill, the weakness is not fake."
Gonta said slowly, a serious tone in this big manâs voice, "Although I also donât know if heâs pretending to be weak or truly weak, since Dad is willing to show us his weak side, we must respond with our best state."
"Rest assured, if it really comes to dealing with you, Iâd definitely go all out."
"Thatâs more like it." Upon hearing this, Gaerâs disgruntled expression relaxed a bit.
What really displeased him wasnât being a weakling competing among his siblings, but the fact that his siblings would hold back and continue to treat him as a âlittle brotherâ with disdain and careâwhich for the Ximor Bloodline, is a more terrifying humiliation than being killed.
Since he had already learned of the Great Khanâs orders, Gaer didnât waste time and headed straight towards the Courtâs core.
Along the way, he sensed over twelve scouts, the majority of which were various wolf bloodline generals, and some were spies from other nations. The World-Devouring Wolvesâ bloodline allowed him to clearly perceive these prying eyes, but Gaer didnât mind, only swaying his tail to sweep away a few less skilled Spirit Energy Users attempting to attach spirit energy to him.
However, these scouts and spies quietly retreated as Gaer reached the core of the Royal Courtâthe massive central dome palace of the Moving Royal Court, known as the âTrue Royal Court.â
The Khan doesnât mind his offspringâs internal competition, even relishes it, but he doesnât allow it to happen under public scrutiny.
"Father."
Though he had just referred to the old Khan as âthe old man,â once in the inner tent, Gaer obediently called âFather,â then felt an irresistible force pulling him forward.
Without resisting, Gaer was drawn by this invisible force to the center of the opulent bedroom, by the bedside made of various emerald gems, where the old Khan reclined and glanced at his youngest son with squinted eyes, clicking his tongue twice, "Youâve improved swiftly, you actually trust that âArcane Pathwayâ?"
Referred to as âthe Divine Punishment,â Ankato Ximor is a robust man with crimson eyes and long hair that make him look more like a white-maned lion than a wolf. Although he is already a hundred years old, for a Fifth Energy Level powerhouse, this age is still okay, even though battles have consumed much of his lifespan, he should still have about ten or twenty good years left.
But now, Great Khan Ankatoâs aura seemed somewhat weakened. As Gonta Ximor said, the old Khanâs weakness is visible and not feigned.
"The Mahdi who defeated me is the creator of the Arcane Pathway. Itâs only normal for me to learn his pathway."
Gaer said matter-of-factly, gritting his teeth with red ears, "Moreover... heâs the same person as that Prophet! Damn it, how did I not see it?!"
