Honestly speaking, the relationship between Jiang Liu and the Jade Emperor has long deteriorated beyond repair, with no room for reconciliation!
The Empress died at the hands of Jiang Liu! The Jade Emperor can't possibly ignore the desire for revenge!
Therefore, upon seeing Jiang Liu suddenly appear in his bedchamber, the Jade Emperor was both startled and fearful!
Amazed that he's here, while secretly feeling afraid!
Power comparable to that of a Saint is definitely not sothing he can handle!
"Jiang Liu, what are you doing here?" Even though he was scared, seeing that Jiang Liu seed in no hurry to start a fight, the Jade Emperor wasn't in a rush either; he just stared at Jiang Liu and asked seriously!
"Nothing much, just wanted to chat. What? Not welco?" Jiang Liu spoke, asking the Jade Emperor!
Upon hearing Jiang Liu's question, the Jade Emperor's expression turned sowhat grim!
However, by not responding, he's clearly showing his attitude!
"Alright then, it's only reasonable that you're not welcoming!" Seeing the Jade Emperor's expression, Jiang Liu nodded slightly, not appearing to be angry!
"Whatever you have to say, just say it!" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, the Jade Emperor followed up with a statent!
Clearly showing a 'get on with it and get out' attitude!
"It's really not a big deal, just a certain doubt that I wish for the Jade Emperor to clarify for !" Jiang Liu spoke up!
The Jade Emperor continued to watch Jiang Liu, clearly waiting for him to clarify his words!
"For a long ti, I've actually admired you, Jade Emperor! Sotis, even knowing you're not my match, you refuse to back down!"
Jiang Liu spoke to the Jade Emperor!
These words made the Jade Emperor's face even darker!
"Could it be? Your purpose in coming here today, Jiang Liu, is to mock ?" said the Jade Emperor, with a gloomy face!
"Not at all! I'm speaking literally, it's the truth!" Jiang Liu shook his head, explaining!
This explanation slightly eased the Jade Emperor's expression!
After all, the Jade Emperor has known Jiang Liu for quite a while and understands his character!
So he knows Jiang Liu is being sincere!
"However..."
But, upon saying this, Jiang Liu changed his tone and continued: "But recently, you've beco quite timid! Even closing the Heavenly Court, allowing our Ming Sect to act freely above you; you actually endured it?"
Jiang Liu's expression turned more serious, "This isn't like your character! I also believe a person's character doesn't change easily!"
"Therefore, can the Jade Emperor explain this to ?"
"I know well enough that I'm not your match! Additionally, now you possess power comparable to a Saint! I'm not soone seeking an early death, is being slightly timid that strange?"
Upon hearing Jiang Liu's question, the Jade Emperor's eyes flickered, following up with an explanation!
"What you say makes sense, but I still feel it's not the reason for your cowardice!" Jiang Liu stared at the Jade Emperor, questioning further!
"Are you holding onto solely based on intuition, forcing to give a reason?" The Jade Emperor's expression soured, staring at Jiang Liu and asking!
"Yes, you could think that!"
"What if your intuition is wrong?" The Jade Emperor followed up!
"Intuition might be wrong, but today, I heard sothing that seed to confirm my intuition!" Jiang Liu continued to stare at the Jade Emperor!
"What did you hear?" The Jade Emperor's heart skipped a beat, reflexively feeling sothing was amiss, while staring at Jiang Liu and asking!
"Just now, at your birthday banquet, I happened to be there! Many suggested you ally with Buddhism, yet you resolutely refused, even asserting that both the Heavenly Court and Buddhism would perish at my hands even if they tead up? Wouldn't you care to explain this properly?"
"Well, you now possess power comparable to a Saint, and Saints are unable to interfere..."
"Go on, continue manufacturing excuses; I'm curious how you plan to keep fabricating!"
Before the Jade Emperor's words were completed, Jiang Liu spoke up, interrupting him!
Alright, with Jiang Liu clearly expressing disbelief in what he's saying, the Jade Emperor naturally lost the desire to continue speaking!
"How about it? I hope the Jade Emperor can be candid!" Seeing the Jade Emperor unable to continue, Jiang Liu followed up!
As they spoke, space behind Jiang Liu slightly twisted, and imdiately, a thirty-six-petaled Chaos Green Lotus erged behind him!
This presence of the Chaos Treasure didn't require any exertion from Jiang Liu; its vast, ocean-like power alone was enough to startle the Jade Emperor!
Feeling the power contained within this Chaos Treasure, the Jade Emperor had to admit, before this Chaos Treasure, the sensation was akin to facing a Saint!
Little wonder Jiang Liu could leverage the Chaos Treasure's power to confront Sage Guidance head-on!
Such power, used against him, would be as easy as squashing an ant?
"Without Attaining Saintliness, one remains an ant beneath the Saints," this saying was surely understood by the Jade Emperor!
"Sigh..."
Seeing Jiang Liu's implicit threat, the Jade Emperor sighed heavily, feeling sowhat helpless!
"Since you sincerely wish to know, Jiang Liu, I will tell you!"
"Indeed! He actually knows sothing; he has a reason!" Jiang Liu internally murmured upon hearing the Jade Emperor speak!
Previously, no matter how much he believed in his suspicions, they remained just that—suspicions!
But now, the Jade Emperor clearly acknowledged it, making the aning entirely different!
"Yes, speak!"
Regardless of his thoughts, for now, Jiang Liu's gaze fell upon the Jade Emperor, nodding as he spoke!
"Do you recall when you intended to kill , and severely wounded , I vanished suddenly?" The Jade Emperor opened up, asking Jiang Liu!
"Yes, I rember, twice!" Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu nodded and said!
Is the Jade Emperor referring to every ti he was severely injured and near death, he would vanish suddenly?
Jiang Liu surely rembered!
"Indeed, just like that!"
The Jade Emperor nodded and continued: "Actually, every ti I disappeared, it was to leave the Three Realms and Six Paths to the Void Realm's Zixiao Palace!"
"Zixiao Palace? Isn't that where Hongjun Ancestor resides? So, he set up his resurrection point in Zixiao Palace?" Upon hearing the Jade Emperor, Jiang Liu realized!
"And then?" Jiang Liu followed up with a question!
"After, for the second visit, Hongjun Ancestor himself instructed not to oppose you, emphasizing the significant mission you carry!"
Jiang Liu: "?"
