~Three Years Later~
On the Central Continent within the Imperial Palace of the Xingyun Royal Family, both the crown prince and his father, the Emperor, were seen in the large throne room.
“Father, can you explain to me why I still have to suppress my cultivation at the peak of the Foundation Building Realm? I have since reached that realm six years ago!”
The Emperor stared at his son who was pacing back and forth below the stairs leading up to the throne he sat on. He didn’t mind his son’s tone of voice since he could understand his frustrations. He himself couldn’t imagine being forced to stay at a bottleneck when it was possible to break through it, as well as watch others younger than him surpass his cultivation realm.
The Emperor got up from his throne and approached his son.
Bao stopped his pacing and watched as his father came up to him and placed his hands on his shoulders.
An expression of fatherly love overtook the Emperor's features as he said.
