Li Heng

Wang Chong had always possessed goodwill toward the Fifth Prince Li Heng, and this wasn't just due to personal reasons. Li Heng possessed several traits that none of the other princes had: sympathy, compassion, and the will to push Great Tang to greater heights.

The young prince's mother was a lowly concubine of the Sage Emperor back when he was still a crown prince, and she had died when the young prince was still little.

Before the schemes in the palace, it was difficult for a lonesome prince without any backing to survive. While he had managed to preserve his life to this point, those around him had died. All he had left was Uncle Jing. This was the reason why he valued this relationship a lot.

It was not without reason that the Fifth Prince was so highly favored by the Sage Emperor and eventually claimed the crown. Just his magnanimity and disposition in itself were incomparable to many.

After Wang Chong changed Li Heng's consitution, he became confident, positive, and most important of all, ambitious.

The Sage Emperor had passed down to him a supreme technique manifesting a five-clawed dragon.

Li Heng had what could be described as almost blind adoration for Wang Chong, and he seemed to believe that there was nothing in the world that Wang Chong couldn’t handle.

## Health

Due to the illness that Li Heng suffered, his body was feeble, and he couldn't learn martial arts. This gave rise to his placid personality.

He was born after only seven months of pregnancy, and while he managed to survive, he was plagued with an innate blood deficiency. This made his body unsuited for cultivating any type of martial arts.

His innate deficiency was the greatest factor restricting his growth. The lack of strength had made him cowardly, creating a tendency for him to step back and give in.

Wang Chong used Blood Reformation to change Li Heng's consitution, thus allowing him to cultivate and practice martial arts.

Wang Chong was going to reshape a future emperor. He was going to free him from his weaknesses and grant him strength and decisiveness, turning him into a wise ruler who could grasp everything in his hands and bring Great Tang down the correct path!

## True Sovereign

**(Ch-2051)**

When Li Heng took the jade seal, he completed the ceremony for the transfer of imperial power. At that moment, Li Heng formally became the new Emperor of the Great Tang. At the same time, Dragon Qi, invisible to all eyes, soared into the heavens, and the world trembled. The stars above the Great Tang also began to change. In the depths of the starry sky, a new Ziwei Emperor Star representing Li Heng exploded into brilliance. Li Heng was now a true sovereign. He was no longer Crown Prince Li Heng, but His Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Tang!

## Last Will

‘Wang Chong, when you read this letter, I will no longer be here. In truth, I learned from Senior Guangcheng a long time ago that Dragon Qi was the secret of the Divine Martial realm, and that it had to be the Son of Heaven’s Dragon Qi. But I also knew that if I abdicated to you, you would never accept. Thus, please forgive me for not telling you beforehand, or anyone else.

‘There is no need to mourn me. I am the Emperor of the Central Plains, so it is right that I protect my people in my own way. This was my own choice.

‘In addition, to have you as a friend and brother, Li Heng has no regrets!’

## Past Life

In this world, there might be very few people who had heard of Li Heng, but in his previous life, there was no one who didn’t know of this Fifth Prince.

The reason was simple.

He was the final great emperor of Great Tang and the Central Plains!

Li Heng was the personal name of Emperor Suzong of Tang, who was the successor of the current Sage Emperor.

## Appearance

The young man was in his late teens. He had a tall, slim stature and an extremely exquisite face. He possessed a natural grace of nobility, and every gesture of his harnessed both elegance and authority.
