Chapter 663: Chapter 629: Zheng Hao’s Ambition
“What are you so afraid of?”
These alarming words made He Zhenghao break into a cold sweat on the spot.
“I am completely devoted and loyal. Please understand, Emissary!” He imdiately declared himself.
“Think about this carefully. Consider your actions well!” Li Fan coldly snorted. His phantom subsequently shattered and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
It was only after a long while that He Zhenghao dared to straighten his hunched body.
After wiping the sweat off his forehead, he took a deep breath. Suddenly rembering that his daughter was by his side, he quickly cleared his throat and returned to his normal deanor.
Fortunately, He XinXin didn’t notice her father’s embarrassnt and was instead clapping her tiny hand against her chest, exclaiming, “Senior Li was so intimidating! He was almost as intimidating as all of the Unity Immortal Monarchs I’ve seen at ho. It really scared to death.”
“Humph, of course. The Emissary…,” He Zhenghao started to say, but realizing it was inappropriate, he abruptly stopped.
Thankfully his daughter didn’t notice his implication, so He Zhenghao changed the subject.
“What did he an by his words just now?”
“He didn’t directly deny Xin-xin’s inference. He only said that he wouldn’t leave…”
A mont later, a look of terror flashed across He Zhenghao’s eyes.
“Could it be that major changes are really about to occur in the Misthaven Ocean?”
He fell into deep thought for a while.
Seeing every subtle change in He Zhenghao’s expression from the depths of the Governance Hall, Li Fan’s heart did not waver at all.
“Give up authority and escape far away, or risk everything for power and refuse to leave…
“Daoist He, what will you choose?”
Based on Li Fan’s knowledge of He Zhenghao, there is no doubt that he would choose the latter. But he still held a glimr of hope that this world’s He Zhenghao could surprise him.
Moving his attention away from He Zhenghao, Li Fan used the Secret Word Envoys to summon mbers of various organizations within the Misthaven Ocean.
“The Emissary has not summoned us for a while. Is there any urgent matter?”
“It does seem a bit strange; I have not heard of any important tasks recently.”
The people were all whispering among themselves.
anwhile, He Zhenghao was still in a dilemma, his countenance fluctuating.
Sensing this, Gao Yuan showed a thoughtful expression. However, he did not imdiately question it and instead rembered it in his heart.
Not long later, once everyone had finally arrived, Li Fan made his appearance.
“We greet the Emissary!” Everyone bowed in unison.
“Sit down. There’s no need for formality,” Li Fan said kindly.
“I’ve called you all here today, not because there’s an urgent matter. As you know, I am the Secret Word Envoy of the Misthaven Elysian City, but I seldom interfere with its matters. The Misthaven Sea Governance has not deteriorated, and in fact, the annual rankings among all regions have even increased. Of course, this can’t be separated from all of your contributions.”
Li Fan paused, gazed at the faces of everyone present, and continued, “As the saying goes, give a plum in return for a peach. I have recently predicted an opportunity and thought it would be fair to inform you.”
The cultivators present all brightened up at these words. After all, to soone like Li Fan, who wouldn’t even bat an eye at tens of millions of contributions, what kind of opportunity would he consider extraordinary?
“I deduced that soon, a Cave Mansion will rise from the depths of the Misthaven Ocean. The opportunity lies within this Cave Mansion!” Li Fan said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, the cultivators beca sowhat restless.
“Of course, opportunities always coexist with danger. Whether or not you want to pursue it is entirely up to you.” Li Fan lightly said these final words and disappeared from their sight with a mysterious smile on his face.
Once it was confird that Li Fan had left, the hall instantly erupted in a frenzy.
“What on earth is the Emissary trying to say? Did he just summon us from afar so that he could tell us this simple sentence?”
“It’s strange! Such a strange move!”
“An undersea Cave Mansion, could it be the ruins of the ancient sects? If it is an opportunity deed significant by the Emissary himself, then it is surely not to be underestimated!”
…
The crowd was excited, and there was a lot of discussion.
anwhile, He Zhenghao was filled with even more confusion.
“Daoist He, do you happen to know so inside information?”
At this mont, he heard Gao Yuan’s transmission.
After so hesitation, He Zhenghao decided to recount the recent events to Gao Yuan, seeking his opinion.
“Misthaven Ocean is about to undergo a significant change?” Gao Yuan was initially surprised, but managed to stay calm.
“But the Emissary said he wouldn’t leave. After questioning your intentions, he declared an opportunity about the Cave Mansion… ”
Gao Yuan quickly thought to himself.
Soti later, Gao Yuan had a sudden realization.
“So that’s it!”
“Brother Gao, please enlighten !” Seeing Gao Yuan seemingly enlightened, He Zhenghao eagerly asked.
“The Emissary is using this Cave Mansion opportunity to remind us. If there’s a major change in Misthaven Ocean and the Emissary is still not willing to leave, why is that?”
“Because opportunity and danger coexist!” Gao Yuan said excitedly, “With the resources controlled by the Emissary, the opportunity that he values so much…”
“It could only be steps away from heaven… ”
“The Essence of Heaven and Earth?”
When He Zhenghao’s eyes t Gao Yuan’s, they both thought of the sa thing.
“So, that’s how it is…” He Zhenghao murmured to himself, as though he understood everything now.
“The Emissary fell from the Immortal Realm, and in order to regain his immortality, he has to follow the procedure of the new thod. For him, there’s no way he would give up this opportunity to unify the Dao. I’ve heard that the birth of the Essence of Heaven and Earth will undoubtedly cause a bloody storm. At that ti, not just us Golden Core cultivators, but even Nascent Souls and God Transformation beings may not escape the disaster.”
“The Essence of Heaven and Earth is soon to be born, and we cannot ntion this directly. Perhaps things will change under the Heavenly Machine Sensing. As the Emissary’s old subordinates, he cannot bear to watch us die in the disaster, so he hints us using this thod.”
…
He Zhenghao suddenly understood everything.
Although excited in his heart, there was an inappropriate emotion growing within.
“The Essence of Heaven and Earth…”
He Zhenghao squinted.
“So, what’s your take on this?” He asked after a while, looking at Gao Yuan whose face was also fluctuating.
“Daoist He, have you ever heard of this saying?” Gao Yuan looked at He Zhenghao.
“What saying?”
“There is no greater rit than serving a Dragon!” Gao Yuan said mysteriously.
“If the Emissary successfully unifies the Dao, and we are still steadfastly accompanying him…”
As he listened, a fla of ambition ignited in He Zhenghao’s heart.
Even deep in his Spirit Consciousness, an idea that he dared not expose surfaced.
The Essence of Heaven and Earth belongs to the virtuous.
If the Emissary fails to offer the Essence of Heaven and Earth, do I have a chance?
After all, it’s not unheard of in the history of the Xuanhuang World.
