The Coronation

Long Huan's coronation was broadcast as well, shown to the world 3 days after the Azure Dragon's funeral as he took the crown on his head and became the Emperor of the Eastern Continent.

The world celebrated along with him, fiery creations of dragons flying around the sky. People danced and feasts were given out in many locations.

Long Huan stood tall and proud as the Emperor.

As the Emperor, Long Huan immediately made 2 new decrees. 

Firstly, he made Long Hanjue the Crown Prince and heir to the Empire and gave him the Ebony Sword as proof of it. 

That caused people to be very surprised as Crown Princes were usually those who were direct descendants of the Emperor. It was very, very rare that the Emperor's brother was the next in line for the throne.

It almost suggested that Emperor knew he could not have any children and that was why he had done that. Those rumors were certainly going to start without a doubt.
