Chapter 812
Emperor Huston bestowed upon Gilmore, whom he saw as the Celestial, a royal reception in the grand hall of the palace.
The meeting with Huston lasted a solid two hours
Throughout the conversation with Gilmore, Huston seemed just like an ordinary man, consistently displaying deep reverence for the Celestial.
Once the meeting was over, Huston asked his only daughter, Princess Amy, to make arrangements for Gilmore’s stay in Fensville.
Princess Amy was the only princess of Emperor Huston. Her status as a princess was equivalent to that of the Crown Prince. Therefore, she had her own East Palace in the Imperial Palace.
Moreover, there was a Princess’s residence outside the palace that belonged to her alone.
Under normal circumstances, Amy lived in the Eastern Palace.
Most of the time, the Princess’s residence was idle.
Amy thus arranged for Gilmore, Lilian, Claire, and their companions to stay at this external Princess’s residence.
Amy arranged for Gilmore and the others to stay at the Princess’s residence which was an honor that had never been seen Fensville
This was also why Amy regarded Gilmore as the Celestial.
After ensuring Gilmore and the others comfortable settlement, Amy returned to the palace to report to her father.

Huston looked at his daughter Amy and said. “Amy, do you think the Celestial would be willing to stay in the Golden Tower, Empire?”
Amy responded with conviction, “Father, as long as we treat him with genuine respect and sincerity, I believe we can persuade the Celestial to stay at Golden Tower Empire.”
Huston stroked his beard thoughtfully and nodded. “Indeed, as long as I am sincere, we can convince the Celestial to stay in Fensville
Then, Huston looked at Amy and said, “Amy, do you think the Celestial can refine elixirs for me like imperial preceptor?” Without a hint of doubt, Amy said, “Of course he can! The Celestial has the power to miraculously heal the golden eagle, a feat beyond the imperial preceptor’s capabilities.
“Not only could the Celestial refine pills, but they must be better than the imperial preceptor.
“Father, after eating it, you will definitely be able to live forever
Hearing his daughter’s words, Huston was very happy and said, you’re right, Amy. Starting tomorrow, I’ll personally visit the Celestial twice a day to extend my greetings. We must ensure the Celestial stay in Fensville.”
Amy said. “With your sincere efforts, Father, I’m certain the Celestial will choose to stay in Fensville.” NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Imperial Preceptor’s Manor.
Levi, the imperial preceptor, wore a grave expression. As he sipped his coffee, he listened intently to the account of the events on the Daniel Mountains, narrated by Jaxon

In the end, Jaxon said to his father unwillingly. “Father, that’s what happened. It’s all Gilmore’s fault. He stopped me from killing the Golden Eagle.
“What’s even more puzzling is that the princess brought him back to the palace. What does he want?”
Levi set down his coffee and gazed at his son. “What is she thinking? Humph! Isn’t it obvious?
“Amy has always seen me as a rival. Moreover, she’s reluctant to marry you.
“She took Gilmore back to the palace and regarded him as the Celestial. Obviously, she wanted to take him back to the palace and replace me.
“This is called killing without spilling blood. The princess is not a kind person.”
Shock appeared in the eyes of jaxon.
He hadn’t expected that Amy had brought Gilmore to the palace with such a deep and crafty motive behind it.
“Dad, what should we do?” Jaxon anxiously asked
Levi responded with a cold chuckle. “The princess thinks she can just bring someone into the palace and replace me, overthrow me? That’s just wishful thinking.
“Before Mr. Franko too fond of this man, we must eliminate him.
However, Jaxon had reservations. Father, Gilmore is an incredibly powerful cultivator. I fear it won
be easy to get rid of
him.”
He thought about how Gilmore had swept across the Daniel Mountain, defeating various patriarchs cultivating families and even healing the terrifying wounds of the golden eagle.
This made Jaxon uneasy.
But imperial preceptor Levi was brimming with confidence and said, “My son, rest assured.
“My power has recently reached the intermediate emperor level. I don’t believe that this young man possesses the same.”
Levi’s confidence stemmed from knowing that the strongest people in the Golden Tower Empire were merely a few old military masters with elite exalted–level.
Now that he had broken through to an intermediate emperor level, he stood above all cultivators in the Golden Tower Empire.
So, Levi was wholly confident in defeating Gilmore,
Jaxon quickly shared how Gilmore could heal the golden eagle’s wounds with core energy.
“Father, the golden eagle’s wounds were terrifyingly vast. They shouldn’t have been able to heal so quickly, but Gilmore healed it entirely in just a few minutes with core energy.”
Facing Jaxon’s doubt, Levi smiled. “My son, I admit Gilmore is capable.
“However, his cultivating strength hasn’t reached a level that would shock the world.
“In my opinion, he was able to heal the golden eagle’s wounds so quickly because he had learned a miraculous healing technique.
“By combining his core energy and this technique, he can achice unexpectedly effective results. That’s the real explanation”

Listening to this. Jaxon pondered, “Could it really be the case?”
So, Gilmore was able to heal the golden eagle’s wounds swiftly just because he had this miraculous healing technique?
Thinking of this, Jaxon asked. “So, Father, how should we deal with Gilmore?”
Levi’s eyes gleamed sharply and said. “I’ll go to the palace right now and report to Mr. Franko about Gilmore’s interference in eliminating the golden eagle. We must have him punished.”
“But what if the princess intervenes?” Jaxon said.
“Don’t worry, my son. Mr. Franko relies on the longevity pills I prepare. If he doesn’t act against Gilmore, I’ll withhold his elixir. Unless, of course, he doesn’t care for his life”
With a sparkle in his eyes, Levi seemed to have everything under control.
Jaxon got the point immediately.
“Father is wise!”
The palace.
Princess Army was deep in conversation with her father, the emperor, inside the palace.
Just then, an elderly eunuchs stepped in through the grand doors of the main hall
“Mr. Franko, the imperial preceptor Levi wishes to see you.”
Huston looked surprised. “Anson, did the imperial preceptor mention why he wants to see me?”
The old eunuch replied, “Mr. Franko, the imperial preceptor said he had something urgent to discuss.”
Huston pondered for a moment, then nodded at the eunuch. “Alright, have him come in
“Yes, Mr. Franko, the old eunuch responded and exited the hall
Once the eunuch left, Huston turned to Princess Amy. “Amy, since the imperial preceptor is coming, you should step back for a bit.
However, Amy voiced her concern, “Father, I believe the imperial preceptor seeks an audience because he wants to cause trouble for the Celestial, Mr. Reed
Huston looked puzzled. “And what makes you think that?”
Princess Amy said, “Jaxon was defeated by Mr. Reed in the Daniel Mountains. The imperial preceptor won’t just let that slide.
“Especially when he knows that you’ve personally hosted the Celestial, Mr. Reed.
The imperial preceptor will definitely be very worried. He is afraid that Mr. Reed will steal his favor and trust in front of Father and make him lose power.”
Huston furrowed his brows. “Amy, do you really believe that’s the case?”
With a playful simile, Amy replied. Father, if you don’t believe me, why don’t we make a little wager to see if I’m right?”
Huston chuckled. “Alright, let’s have a bet. If the imperial preceptor acts as you predict. I’ll grant you a wish.
“If not, you should apologize to him and agree to the arranged marriage with Henri scion.”

Amy nodded seriously Agreed, Father. It’s a deal”
Huston instructed, “Go and hide behind the curtains.”

Princess Amy nodded and took her place behind the curtains of the grand hall.
Soon after, imperial preceptor Levi entered the hall and greeted Huston with a bow. “Your servant, Levi, pays his respects.”
Seated on his throne, Huston motioned for Levi to rise. “There’s no need for formalities, imperial preceptor.”
“Thank you, Mr. Franko.
Huston eyed Levi curiously. “Imperial preceptor, what matter brings you here?”
Levi’s face turned serious. “Mr. Franko, I’ve heard that you honored a guest today who claims to be the Celestial?” Huston looked intrigued. “Indeed, imperial preceptor. Today I did meet with a distinguished Celestial guest.”
Then, he asked the imperial preceptor, “Why would you say that the Celestial is fake?”
“Mr. Franko, tales of the Celestials are merely legends. On our planet, there are no such beings.”
Levi said with firm conviction, “Moreover, this Gilmore not only interfered when my son tried to kill the golden eagle.
“But also injured members of major cultivator families. He even threatened my son.
“He healed the wound of the golden eagle and finally let it go.
“Mr. Franko, I think Gilmore must have taken care of the golden cagle.
“Gilmore must be the mastermind behind the Golden Eagle’s wanton attack on Fensville and the deaths of so many innocent people.
“And now, the princess regards this murderous fiend as the Celestial and has invited him back to the palace. It’s like letting the wolf into the sheep pen.
Tm afraid that Gilmore will harm Mr. Franko and the Golden Tower Empire next!”
Having made his case, imperial preceptor Levi immediately knelt, his voice filled with emotion. “Mr. Franko, I implore you to punish Gilmore harshly. If not, you and the Golden Tower Empire will be in grave danger!”
Levi’s voice trembled, filled with both fear and loyalty.
Just as he thought he had made an impression on Huston, urging him to take stern action against Gilmore.
Suddenly, a boisterous laughter echoed from the throne, “Hahaha.
The imperial preceptor raised his head in astonishment.
Then, he saw Mr. Franko smiling on the throne.
And he smiled very happily.
This left Levi bewildered. Why is Mr. Franko laughing?
Gathering his wits, he carefully said, “Mr. Franko, did I perhaps say something amiss?”
Huston, finally composing himself, said, “Imperial preceptor, not only did you not err, but you’ve also hit the nail on the
head

Indeed, Huston had laughed because what Levi said was precisely what the princess had anticipated.
So he couldn’t help laughing.
So, he agreed with Levi wholeheartedly.
However, this just made Levi even more puzzled.
Since he was right, why was Huston smiling so strangely?
“Mr. Franko, since I’ve spoken correctly, should we arrest and execute the fake Celestial, Gilmore?” Imperial preceptor Levi asked cautiously.
Huston, however, responded gravely, “No, imperial preceptor. Although Mr. Reed did prevent Jaxon from killing the golden cagle.
“Mr. Reed’s cultivation skills are profound. He possesses a supernatural skill to heal and resurrect, which he used to heal the golden eagle’s wounds.
“Such a miraculous technique, akin to the Celestial, is exactly what our empire needs.”
Levi was taken aback.
A sense of uncase washed over him.
Because as soon as Huston met Gilmore today, he stood up for Gilmore.
There was no lack of praise in his words.
This made the imperial preceptor feel that Huston seemed to attach great importance to Gilmore.
At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before Gilmore became Huston’s most trusted aide.
A fleeting, unnoticed glint of animosity flashed in Levi’s eyes.
He would never let Gilmore become Huston’s favorite and replace him.
“Mr. Franko, Gilmore’s background is murky. I fear that your highness has been blinded by his smooth talk. You’re being played and are bound to suffer, the imperial preceptor earnestly advised Huston.
“Imperial preceptor, may I know what my father was fooled by Mr. Reed and what he suffered?” Right at this moment, a woman’s voice sounded.
Levi looked over to see Princess Amy emerging from behind the curtains of the grand hall.
Fixing his gaze on Amy, he said, “Princess, I know you have never seen eye–to–eye with me.
“You think that taking the elixir will be detrimental to Mr. Franko
“But my loyalty to Mr. Franko is unwavering.
“Why would you, with your suspicions about me, bring a charlatan posing as the Celestial into the palace?
“Aren’t you afraid hell bring harm to Mr. Franko? Regrets would be too late.”
Anny, looking unperturbed, responded, “Levi, I hold no prejudices against you.
“You’re the imperial preceptor, crafting elixirs that promise eternal youth for my father. Why would I be upset with you?

Tinvited Mr. Reed to the palace because his skills as a cultivator are astounding. He has this incredible technique of resurrecting the dead.
“Such a prodigious talent like the Celestial is exactly what our empire needs. I wanted him to meet my father.”
As Amy’s words hung in the air, Huston nodded in agreement. Indeed, Levi. Mr. Reed is truly a rare gem.”
From that, the imperial preceptor knew that Huston wouldn’t punish Gilmore,
Thus, the imperial preceptor looked at Huston and said, “Mr. Franko, I’m just worried about you.
“If you’re not inclined to heed my advice, then I’ll hold my peace. I hope things turn out as you anticipate, without any mishaps.”
Huston nodded. “Thank you, imperial preceptor. You mean well
“But I believe there’s nothing
to wor
worry about with Mr. Reed. Please, ease your mind.”
Finally, Huston inquired, “Imperial preceptor, do you have any new elixirs of longevity?”
The imperial preceptor looked at Huston indifferently and said, “Mr. Franko, I didn’t refine a good elixir of longevity today.
“In the past few days, I was a little tired, so I failed to refine the elixir.
“Mr. Franko, please wait for a few days. I will definitely refine the elixir.”
A touch of disappointment, mixed with impatience, flashed in Huston’s eyes.
He couldn’t wait any longer.
But all he did was offer a sheepish smile and say, “Levi, if you’re feeling worn out, take some time to rest.
“Only with proper rest will you be able to craft the elixir.
The imperial preceptor bowed. “Yes, Mr. Franko. I’ll rejuvenate and prepare the elixir
“The imperial preceptor, since you’re tired, you should have a good rest. I want Mr. Reed to try refining the elixir.” At this time, Princess Amy looked at the imperial preceptor with concern and said.
A fleeting, enigmatic gleam passed through the imperial preceptor’s eyes before he calmly said, “Perhaps, princess. Mr. Reed might indeed be more adept at elixir.
“Rest up, imperial preceptor. We can wait for the elixir,” Huston said.
“Mr. Franko, I’ll take my leave first. With that said, the imperial preceptor left the hall.
Once he left, Huston turned to Amy with a hint of reproach. “Amy, why did you suggest Mr. Reed make the elixir instead of
Levi?
“In this way, the imperial preceptor will think that we deliberately ignore him. What if he doesn’t refine the elixir anymore?” Amy, full of confidence, said, “Father, I believe Mr. Reed can craft it.
“Moreover, the imperial preceptor was obviously dissatisfied because her father did not agree to punish Mr. Reed. He deliberately said that he was mentally and physically weak and could not refine the elixir.
“He was obviously giving father a hard time and not taking you seriously at all.
“How can such an official stay with my father? If Mr. Reed can refine the elixir, why don’t Father expel the imperial

preceptor from the Fensville
Huston’s face tightened, his brows knitted.
Clearly, Amy’s words had touched a nerve.
He naturally saw that the imperial preceptor was threatening him invisibly.
However, Huston had his own concerns.
He looked at his daughter and said. “Amy, it’s not that your father doesn’t understand what you’re saying.
“But what if Mr. Reed cannot concoct the elixir? Wouldn’t that mean I can’t achieve eternal youth?”
“Father,” Amy replied, “tomorrow, let’s meet Mr. Reed again. Perhaps we can plead with him to make the elixir for you.”
Huston nodded in agreement. “Alright, we’ll ask Mr. Reed tomorrow.”
The Imperial preceptor’s Manor.
Imperial preceptor Levi had just returned, making his way into a grand hall within the mansion
“Father, you’re back?” Jaxon, seated in the hall, stood up immediately, approaching Gilmore with curiosity.
Levi sat down with a grim expression, directing his gaze towards his son Jaxon, and said, “My son. I’ve met with Mr. Franko. “However, things did not go as 1 anticipated”
Jaxon, puzzled, asked, “Father, what unexpected turn did it take
Levi explained, “It seems Mr. Franko has taken the princess’s words to heart. Not only does he have no intentions of punishing Gilmore, but he even plans to rely heavily on him.”
A look of worry crossed Jaxon’s face. “Father, if Gilmore gains Mr. Franko’s favor and trust.”
“Our family might lose our footing in Fensville.”
“You’re right. If Gilmore gains power, our family will lose all our influence in Fensville. That’s why I won’t let Gilmore rise to power.
Levi’s eyes flashed with sharpness.
Jaxon, still puzzled, said, “But father, with Mr. Franko and Princess on his side, how can we deal with Gilmore!”
Levi’s gaze was profound and said, “My son, have you forgotten? Mr. Franko has been taking my elixir for years.
This elixir contains the poisonous insect I planted.”
Levi suddenly leaned in, whispering a string of words into Jaxon’s ear.
Once Levi finished, Jaxon’s eyes sparkled with realization. “So you’ve been prepared all along, Father. I’m eager to see how Gilmore will escape from the palm of your hand,
Late that night, Levi sat cross–legged in a tower hall.
In front of him was a table with a brush, cinnabar, an ink stone, and yellow paper.
Jaxon stood by his side, watching his father with a solemn expression

Levi said, “My son, grind the cinnabar for me.”
Jaxon complied, grinding the cinnabar in the ink stone diligently.

Minutes later, after Jaxon had finished grinding, Levi picked up the brush, dipped it in the cinnabar ink, and began to draw intricate symbols on the yellow paper with grace and flair.
Levi drew three or four cinnabar talismans.
Levi began chanting incantations, forming complex and mysterious hand signs with his other hand.
As he chanted the incantation, he made a seal with his hand.
Suddenly, a chilling wind blew through the hall, filling the room with an overwhelming and eerie
presence.
Above the imperial preceptor’s mansion, dark clouds gathered ominously, flashes of lightning occasionally illuminating the
skies.
At the same time, in the palace.
Huston, in a deep slumber atop his luxurious bed, suddenly furrowed his brows, growing increasingly agitated.
Then, like a jolt, Huston woke from his dreams.
But the awakening brought no relief. His expression twisted in pain.
Because he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
It was as if he had been twisted by a knife.
This searing pain made Huston’s complexion ashen, sweat pouring down his brow like a spring shower.
“Someone! Help!” His voice echoed desperately throughout the halls of the palace.
His frantic shout instantly mobilized the palace guards, who rushed into the chamber.
“Mr. Franko, we’re here to protect you, they proclaimed with unwavering loyalty.
But the agonized Huston, barely holding onto his composure, said, “Enough with the formalities! Summon the royal physicians now!”
All the guards acknowledged.
Then, several guards quickly left the hall.
Soon, about a dozen royal physicians, escorted by the guards, hurriedly entered the Huston’s chamber.
The reason why there were more than a dozen imperial physicians here was that Huston had something to do.
As an imperial physician, who would dare to not come?
More than a dozen of the most famous imperial physicians with the best medical skills in the palace began to diagnose Huston’s symptoms one by one.
After feeling the pulse, they were all confused.
How could they know nothing about Huston’s illness.
They gathered together and began to discuss.

Just as they were discussing what kind of illness Huston had and how to treat him.
On the throne, Huston’s face became more and more ugly, and he had begun to scream, “Ah!”
In the Palace at night, Huston’s screams were heard.

This made all the palace maids and guards in the palace, who had been shaking their heads and ready to fall asleep at any time, cheer up.
They all rushed to Huston’s grand.
The imperial preceptor’s Manor.
A sinister smirk crept onto Levi’s face, his eyes gleaming with malevolent intent.
It was as if he had a bird’s–eye view of the events unfolding in the palace.
Seeing his father cease his mysterious chants, Jaxon curiously asked, “Father, did your spell inflict pain upon Mr. Franko?”
“My son, I’ve just used a powerful incantation to activate the parasite inside Mr. Franko. He’s now enduring excruciating
Torment.
“Now it’s the late night, and we should rest. Tomorrow, Mr. Franko will surely summon me. It will be our chance to bend him to our will and, most importantly, to deal with Gilmore”
Jaxon, clearly impressed, praised. “Father, your strategies are unparalleled, truly a mastermind in our times!”
