Chapter 1112 Offers

The onlookers stood in stunned silence, their eyes wide with disbelief as they gazed upon the aftermath of the tumultuous battle. The sun had not yet reached its zenith, and the outcome had defied their wildest expectations. The Wrymheart Clan, once a formidable force that had arrived with lofty ambitions, had been utterly vanquished.

Murmurs and whispers began to ripple through the crowd as they tried to process the astonishing turn of events.

"Is it really him? The Zodiac Emperor?"

"I can\'t believe the Wrymheart Clan is no more..."

"They stood no chance against him..."

As the truth of the situation began to sink in, the onlookers exchanged bewildered glances and hesitant smiles. The figure of legend had returned, proving his identity in the most dramatic fashion. The atmosphere was charged with a mix of awe and reverence as they realized that they had witnessed history unfolding before their eyes. The return of the Zodiac Emperor was a momentous occasion that would be talked about for generations to come.

Thaedan descended from the sky, his body trembling with a mix of reverence and trepidation. He knelt before Lyon, a clear display of submission. "Please forgive my insolence in doubting your identity, Your Majesty," he implored, his voice carrying the weight of his sincerity. "But please let me be the sole receiver of such punishment. Please, spare my clan."

As the words left Thaedan\'s lips, an uneasy hush fell over the onlookers. They watched in tense anticipation, realizing the gravity of the moment. Thaedan\'s plea was not only a reflection of his own humility but a plea for the survival of the Greenleaf Clan.

The other patriarchs, young masters, and warriors exchanged meaningful glances. They understood the significance of this moment and the potential ramifications it could have on their own clans. They were caught between admiration for Lyon\'s power and the sobering realization of his capabilities.

Lyon\'s response held the fate of the Greenleaf Clan in the balance, and the onlookers held their collective breath, waiting for his decision.

Sylva, trembling with fear, followed Thaedan\'s lead and knelt beside him. Her voice quivered as she added her plea to Thaedan\'s, "Please forgive me as well, Your Majesty, for not even trying to correct the story and jousting Drako\'s fabrication."

The onlookers watched with bated breath as more members of the Greenleaf Clan sought Lyon\'s forgiveness. The tension in the air was palpable as they awaited Lyon\'s response, fully aware that this moment would be etched into the annals of their history.

As Lyon returned to his usual self, his imperial bearing was undoubted. He addressed Kesya and the two kneeling members of the Greenleaf Clan. "No longer does your answer matter," he stated firmly. He then turned to Cecile and asked, "Cecile, can you decide their fate for me?"

Cecile canceled her blessings and reverted to her normal self. She contemplated the situation for a moment and responded, "The Benevolence Empress is on leave, but enough death for today. Cleaning out another clan is not really a good look."

With her decision made, the tension in the air slowly dissipated, and the onlookers exhaled with relief, knowing that further bloodshed had been averted. They were granted mercy, and the fear of Lyon, the Zodiac Emperor, was palpable in the Second Realm.

The patriarchs, seeing the mood was right and understanding the power and authority of Lyon, the Zodiac Emperor, one by one knelt to address him. With deep respect and humility, they pledged their loyalty and allegiance to him. The authority of the Zodiac Emperor was unquestionable, and his return marked a turning point in the history of the Second Realm.

Patriarch Thaedan, representing the Greenleaf Clan, began, "I am Thaedan, patriarch of the Greenleaf Clan. We have been gravely mistaken, Your Majesty, and we pledge our unwavering loyalty to your reign."

Patriarch Oren of the Stormrider Clan followed, "I am Oren, patriarch of the Stormrider Clan. We humbly acknowledge your true identity, and we are ready to serve you with the utmost dedication."

Patriarch Seraphina, representing the Shadowheart Clan, said, "I am Seraphina, matriarch of the Shadowheart Clan, and my loyalty to you has never wavered. We are yours to command, Your Majesty."

As the patriarchs and matriarch knelt before Lyon, the onlookers couldn\'t believe their eyes. A hushed silence swept through the crowd. They had witnessed an incredible turn of events, from the confrontation of clans to the acknowledgment of Lyon as the Zodiac Emperor. Shock, awe, and relief painted the faces of the onlookers as they came to terms with the unfolding reality. Some even bowed in reverence to the powerful figure who had returned, knowing that their world was about to change.

Whispers spread through the crowd as they witnessed the events with wide eyes, realizing the gravity of Lyon\'s presence. The atmosphere was charged with a mixture of fear and hope, as the Second Realm had been shaken to its core.

Cecile, amused by the simultaneous flashes of determination in the eyes of the three leaders, playfully sighed, "It\'s been so tiring, but we have nowhere to rest..."

Thaedan, Oren, and Seraphina exchanged playful glances before offering their respective hospitality to the Empress.

Thaedan started, "Dear Empress, the embrace of the Greenleaf Clan offers tranquility and a connection with nature. You\'ll find solace in the heart of the ancient forest."

Oren chimed in, "Ah, but the Stormrider Clan\'s home is a haven by the sea. The soothing sound of crashing waves will lull you to sleep, and the ocean\'s bounty will grace your table."

Seraphina added, "While both are lovely, you mustn\'t forget the serenity of the Moonshadow Clan\'s hidden abode. Our secluded forests and crystal-clear lakes provide the perfect escape from the chaos of the world."

The banter continued as they one-upped each other, each describing the merits of their own clan\'s hospitality while pointing out the supposed flaws in the others. The Empress, Cecile, couldn\'t help but chuckle at the playful competition, feeling a sense of camaraderie in the Second Realm.

Lyon\'s gaze shifted towards the forest, disappointment tainting his expression. Liu\'s absence weighed heavily on him. He had hoped for Liu\'s arrival amidst the chaotic events, but it seemed that his loyal companion chose not to show up.
