Chapter 1409: Chapter 820: Don’t Let Down_3
He knew what this person was seeking.
Nothing more than past matters, wanting him to take the ancient reserve of the Divine Dynasty and beco the first emperor to transcend the human world.
As for this red dust, let the Immortal Buddha slowly consu it — it’s better than nothing remaining at all.
“They say this is Heaven’s favor?”
“What do you think?” The man slightly lifted his chin, a hint of mockery at the corner of his lips.
“Heaven does nothing; the rit belongs to Officer Shen.” Gu Li denied without hesitation, as where in this world does good fortune co unearned? It’s only due to soone’s silent effort.
“Exactly.”
The Human Emperor’s face regained a smile, and his eyes showed a trace of ferocity.
Bullshit about Heaven.
This was his General of Southern Defense who gave up a promising path, abandoned the position of Immortal Emperor, and risked life and death to secure an opportunity for the Divine Dynasty.
No one in this world is qualified to use the chance he fought for to exchange for other benefits.
Since that young man could give up the Immortal Emperor position, he could similarly give up the so-called transcendence.
If there wasn’t enough ti, let the next person do it; if you want to bow to the sky, why bother looking up at it in the first place?
This tribulation is only for victory!
“Leave, wait for outside.”
The Human Emperor waved his hand, the latter half of the sentence directed at Ye Lan.
“…”
Ye Lan glanced at Gu Li, finding equal confusion on the other’s face.
The two won withdrew from the wine pool.
“I’ll keep an eye on Lin Shuya.” Gu Li squinted her eyes slightly; she noticed sothing amiss but didn’t know why His Majesty was ignoring it.
If it’s due to anything else, fine, but if it’s because His Majesty’s body had a problem and was powerless against the head of the Immortal Departnt, there’s truly no one who could subdue Lin Shuya, who controlled the Emperor’s Aura of the world.
“I…”
Leaving Ye Lan alone, she clenched her palms.
According to the Human Emperor’s previous intention, it was obvious he wanted her to counterbalance Lin Shuya, but the ti was simply too short, utterly insufficient.
Her only confusion now was what the man planned to do.
What Ye Lan didn’t expect was that this wait lasted into the deep night.
“Co in.”
A lazy voice drifted out from within the wine pool.
Ye Lan hesitated montarily, then stepped back inside, her pupils slightly shrinking.
The man was still soaking in the pool, elbows resting on the pebbles, back to her seeming unchanged from before.
But his whole appearance had transford.
His graying hair astonishingly turned back to black, and though his body still appeared aged, his vitality and spirit had visibly improved.
Rejuvenated?
“Stop standing there dumbfounded.” The Human Emperor didn’t turn around; instead, he casually pulled a tuft of hair, weaving it into a rope to string a crystal-clear Blood Jade with care.
He tossed the Blood Jade to Ye Lan, saying indifferently, “I know you have a way to contact him, give this thing to him. Consider it the reward I’ve always owed him.”
The Human Emperor didn’t explain what this item was, nor was he interested in saying more.
“…”
Ye Lan looked at the slightly moist Blood Jade in her palm, sowhat dazed. Although her cultivation was low, she was still a cultivator from the orthodox Immortal Sect of Shenxu Mountain.
This item had no Tribulation Power, essentially not qualifying as a magic artifact.
But she knew the matter was urgent, so she didn’t ask further, just raised her head and said, “Does Your Majesty have any instructions you wish to pass on to him?”
Upon saying this, the wine pool descended into silence.
The man’s body twitched slightly; he closed his eyes, pondering for a long while.
When he spoke again, Ye Lan couldn’t tell if it was an illusion, but she heard a hint of elder’s timidity and helplessness in the choir of a master of red dust.
“In my life, I’ve only trusted two people.”
“The first, raised by since childhood, always by my side, yet now he dares not even face .”
At this, the man grinned self-mockingly, “The absurdity is his concern isn’t groundless; if he dared step into this courtyard, I would certainly kill him without hesitation.”
“Hiss.” Ye Lan’s face changed slightly; she certainly knew who the man was referring to.
“As for the second person I trust, I’ve only t him once.” The man paused, suddenly striking the wine pool with irritation, splashing water everywhere, “Dammit, I knew there was a problem but inexplicably softened, finally being duped miserably by him!”
“But…”
The man took a deep breath, relieved, “I willingly accept being deceived because what I want, he also wants; what he desires is sothing I want yet dare not pursue.”
The sentence was convoluted; Ye Lan couldn’t quite understand but recorded it in her heart for Shen Yi to comprehend.
“Although I’ve given this thing as his reward, logically, as a reward, he should be free to use it as he wishes…”
The Human Emperor slowly turned his head, resembling a persistently strong emperor, gritting his teeth, licking his lips, striving to suppress the trembling in his voice.
Whether he was the Human Emperor or one of the Six Imperial Lords, he ruled the world.
As rulers, they should be decisive; their words are seen as Imperial Edicts by others.
But at this mont, despite radiating vitality, the man more resembled a dying elder, with a tone pleading sowhat:
“Can you…not betray .”
