Life Drain System

    Looking at his hand and seeing some dust having fallen on it, he responds while brushing it off. "Oh but what need does the council have of a young prince who is too naïve? After all, if you can just use and manipulate others to get what you want, why not do that?"

    Hearing this not one of those elders being squashed on the ground could refute it, not just because they are at a loss for words but the pressure is just too much for them.

    After a few minutes of seeing them getting closer and closer to death, and not on the brink of it he says casually. "Oh dear, it seems you all have gone mute, no wonder you have not answered my questions. How terrible, I wonder why that is? You know this is actually where I trained not long ago, and oh how I love this place, it is fun and peaceful. But if you all would like to use up your princes favor already all you need do is nod your head and I will save you all from this wonderous place." He expresses worry when saying these words before turning it to a saddened expression.

    A few seconds later seeing them all nod, he says a few final things as he walks towards them. "You know, if you had not had malicious intentions this never would have happened. Either way, I am glad to be of help to you just as you are helping us. Remember to keep your word to help with this project until the end or we can always revisit this nice place. Who knows you may have fun here later."

    Then with that last sentence he teleports them to the room of his orc subordinates where they see massive construction work being done very quickly, as the goblins help with the smithing of the parts needed. Of course everyone looks like humans to them as they do not have the armband needed to see otherwise, nor the skills to do so.

    Observing the scene before them, they see the super mini small world as if it has been divided in half some how. On the left side, they see the materials they have had their desciples bring and are still flowing in making a very tall mountain. Not to mention the tens of if not a hundred forges that are not that far from the mountain of supplies causing billows of smoke to rise as the people work.

    However as if the left side was not enough, when they turn their head they see the residence in the middle as if connecting the two different world like scenes. Then on the right they see massive pillars of metal and other materials being made, yet as clear as it may be that they have not yet been completed, it is still a mind boggling sight to behold.

    One of those on the council then barely manages to utter the word on his mind. "What is this? How could such creations be manifested over such a short period of time?"

    Hearing the mumbling of the council member, Yueliang answers. "Honestly, I did not think they would work so fast, but I do find it odd. These rockets should be much larger, unless they are making the shielding first, which would make more sense. Anyways, if you think this is impressive with only a few hundred of them, you should have seen them when their numbers were in the thousands."

    "You mean there are more? If they were cultivators that would be one thing, but they are all mortals, yet can achieve such a feat that normally only higher realm cultivators or those who cultivate speed techniques could show!" One of the two females on the council exclaims in surprise.

    With that said, Yueliang starts walking forward while commenting. "I guess you could say that, however most of them died while we were under attack by a very strong cultivator. Either way it has been taken care of. Anyways, now that you have seen our progress, shall we head back? Or would you elders like to help with this project any further? After all, your support is most welcome in these troubling times."

    When these words leave his mouth, only one phrase enters the councils mind. 'Anything to get out of this terrifying place that seems to suck our assets dry!'

    "We will take our leave back to the throne room young prince, but thank you for the tour." The same female elder replied as if reading the rest of the groups mind.

    '*Sigh. I only want to speed up the process of saving all those that I can. If we could survive this impending disaster without one civilian casualty that would be a massive blessing in and of itself.' Yueliang thinks to himself while stopping and turning around to bring them back so as to not allow them any more free reign than they already had so far.

    Then stepping forward he starts folding space with each person individually, going back and forth to move them all to the throne room. Before they could even really think on what just happened they all found themselves surrounding the table in the throne room once more, only this time standing instead of sitting in their chairs. 

    It is during this time that they have after the young prince had left a thought starts forming in their minds. 'If this child becomes the future emperor he will be more horrifying that his grandfather. Especially considering that he is only barely forming his cultivation at the moment. Should we...?'

    Each bearing their own thoughts of what to do about the young prince, whether to kill him, to avoid him, or to try and curry favor with him, they all take their seats as they try to wrack their minds around what to do in the unforeseen future.

    Not letting any other distractions come to mind, Yueliang folds space back to the org/ goblin residence/ work room to announce the wedding, and for them to take a short break if they want to come to it. 

    Then without delay he quickly uses the void steps to get to his grandpa in the next instance so as to see the finishing touches, as well to keep his word since he said he would be back soon and just had to take care of a few thing.

    However when he arrives, Yue notices that neither Ai Lan nor the Emperor Rin are here. Although looking around, he sees that the room has been completed, and so turning around to see if they left the room he starts running to the door as he knows this must be done either sooner or later.

    Leaving the building, he sees a darkening shadow on the ground, and looks up only to see the meteor the size of the moon and thinks to himself. 'That is far larger than I imagined, we really need to get out of here sooner rather than later if we want to live. Hopefully we can start the move soon!'

    Just as his thought process comes to an end he hears a voice behind him. "Where do you think you are going? Asking us to get started and you are already leaving?!" Rin exclaims in a joking manner knowing that is not his grandsons intention.

    Turning around Yueliang smiles and replies. "There you are, I was looking for you. By the way, did you see how close that meteor is getting? It will not be long before the collision. It seems that we might have less time than we thought."

    Shaking his head, Rin comments. "Breathe first, and calm down. There is only one thing that your mind should be focused on today, and that is your wedding, that it goes well. Regardless, your subordinates and I will take care of all the rest. After all, the only reason that we have not already teleported the planet is due to the fact that we do not have any shielding of the planet for this trip or some unexpected asteroids may hit us. Well that, and that I am not sure if we have enough power for this, seeing as this ability takes far more energy than you could imagine."

    Feeling much more relaxed now than before, after hearing his grandfathers words, he leaves the doors open and comes back inside. "Thank you gramps." He says as we walks down the long red runner.

    While walking back, Yueliang looks around, and questions. "By the way grandpa, where is Ai Lan? I have not seen her for a while now, but seeing as you knew what I told her, either she told you, or it was just your observation. Has she really not shown up yet? If not, I should go find her.." His face filling with worry as he thinks about all the things that could have happened considering recent incidents.
