Everyone was dumbstruck.
This was because the greatest desire of all living beings living in this foreign battleground was not to capture the seed demons. Instead, it was to capture the seed demons so that they could ascend, be valued by the Nine Heavens, and even receive great blessings from the Nine Heavens.
If it was the young master of the Lu Family, they would feel that it was very normal for him to achieve any of the above three desires.
However, what was abnormal was that it was the Kingdom of the Nine States where the young master of the Lu Family was located.
Even more abnormal was the ascension of the entire Kingdom of the Nine States.
The most abnormal thing was that according to the Nine Heavens Edict, the ascension of the entire Kingdom of the Nine States was not only about slaying the seed demons, but also seemed to be responsible for educating the Nine Heavens.
What kind of importance was this?
What kind of blessing was this?
What kind of opportunity was this?
They couldn't imagine it.
Hence, they were dumbstruck.
Xie Yue smiled.
The Lu Family was actually doing this as he had promised Second Brother Lu to persuade Xie Tian to return home.
In the end, he hadn't even told the Lu Family about this method, and the Lu Family had already taken the initiative …
However, he wasn't worried that the Lu Family would renege on their promise.
With the intelligence of the Lu Family, they would come up with this extremely simple method sooner or later. However, this didn't mean that they would let Xie Yue off the hook.
Hence, Xie Yue smiled very happily.
Zhong Lao cried.
Just when he thought that he was just a guest whose life goal was to satisfy the demands of the young master of the Lu Family, the edict from the Lu Family arrived.
The edict overturned everything he had promised …
Even though he didn't think he had the right to be condemned and punished by the edict, this overturned everything he had promised, which was equivalent to a heavy sentence for him.
Hence, he cried in despair.
Xie Tian's eyes were very cold.
Because once again, his home, the Kingdom of the Nine States, was no longer under his control …
Once again, his home, the Kingdom of the Nine States, was going to go to an even more dangerous place.
But at the same time, he was also very helpless.
Because right now, he had no way of reversing everything that the edict had said.
Unless he admitted that he was the young master of the Lu Family.
At the same time, he was also very helpless.
This was because it was different from the last time the Kingdom of the Nine States had become a part of the battlefield …
This time, at least there was an imperial edict.
This time, at least the imperial edict was true, and the Kingdom of the Nine States was greatly praised.
This time, at least in front of him.
He couldn't bring himself to say that she was haunting him.
Therefore, not only was he cold, but he was also powerless and helpless.
"I'll go just because you said so!"
Sapling, who was closest to Xie Tian, could feel the change in Xie Tian after the imperial edict arrived. He raised his head and shouted, "Damn it, who would want to do something that doesn't bring them any benefits? I'm asking you to come down, do you dare to come down?"
Then, a resentful Lu Xiaoxiao jumped out from the imperial edict.
"Cough, cough …"
As someone from the Nine Heavens, even coughing sounded like an old man.
That made the small tree shiver. "It's Senior Creepy!"
"Ahem, it's good that you're a senior. It's fine if it's strange." Lu Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, and he glanced timidly at the cold and bloodshot young master before pretending to be calm. "This … cough, cough, little cultivator …"
"Senior, please add the word 'tree' after the word 'little'!"
Was his little cultivator referring to the same thing as Little Tree?
Lu Xiaoxiao's expression darkened, and he couldn't be bothered to reply to the shameless small tree. "That, it's not without benefits …"
All of the mighty figures were about to go crazy.
Little Tree's bargaining with the Imperial Edict from the Nine Heavens was already far beyond their understanding.
Never would they have thought that the visitor from the Nine Heavens would actually give a friendly response to Little Tree's bargaining.
This wasn't about the Kingdom of the Nine States ascending to the heavens, it was a request.
"What benefits?"
"What benefits do you want?"
"Whatever you have, I want it all!"
"I'll give you whatever you want!"
…
When the nobility represented by the Imperial Edict from the Nine Heavens was reduced to the lowly haggling of a petty merchant, the haze in Xie Tian's heart dissipated significantly.
He was very thankful for Little Tree's joke.
However, he also understood that his comedic counterattack would not be able to change the fate of the Kingdom of the Nine States in half a month.
"Let's go."
Xie Tian didn't even look at Lu Xiaoxiao as he calmly turned around and strode away.
A faint smile appeared on his face as he passed by the kneeling Devouring Cang. "Come visit the Kingdom of the Nine States when you have time."
"Uh, okay, okay …"
Devouring Cang was still befuddled by a question as he watched the departing cultivators from the Kingdom of the Nine States …
"Is he going to accept the edict or not?"
This was also the question on the minds of all the Dark Cliff Sect cultivators.
Even Lu Xiaoxiao, who had been briefed beforehand, couldn't figure out his Young Master's true intentions.
Of course, what he was more concerned about was —
"Will Young Master come with the Kingdom of the Nine States …"
In an unknown place.
"Feiyang will come …"
"Is Second Brother so sure?"
"Is he willing to come to the Upper Realm alone?"
"No, but at least he knows that with the Lu Family around, the Kingdom of the Nine States will not be in any danger …"
"So you think he will tacitly accept the ascension of the Kingdom of the Nine States, and he can part ways with the Kingdom of the Nine States in peace?"
"Feiyang is not that kind of person …"
"Heh, if you ask me, the Kingdom of the Nine States is Feiyang's sore spot. This time, he will definitely come!"
"This is Xie Yue's idea. Even though he used it without telling us, he knows that the Lu Family will not let him down. However …"
"However, if this doesn't work, then he can forget about his ability!"
"Xie Yue will definitely help. This matter is settled!"
…
Xie Yue was the one who could best understand Xie Tian's current mood.
He had even guessed that when his idea was turned into an edict, Xie Tian's biggest reaction would be to remain silent.
However, to his surprise, a hint of uneasiness that an Emperor should not have appeared in his heart because of Xie Tian's silence.
Thus, Xie Yue did not help. Instead, he remained silent like Xie Tian.
In his silence, he reflected on his life as an Emperor …
Even when he faced off against hundreds of Emperors with the number one Emperor of all times, the Evil Emperor, he did not feel the slightest bit of uneasiness. All he felt was the boldness of facing off against the entire universe.
Even if he, who was only at the Dao Ancestor Realm, was placed in that battle, he felt that he would still be bold and not nervous.
Thus, he understood …
It was not that he was timid because he was weak …
Rather, he was no longer an Emperor. He had truly come to life and become a living, breathing person.
Uneasiness was an emotion of uneasiness and discomfort.
However, aside from discomfort, Xie Yue also felt a faint sense of comfort.
This complex sense of comfort brought him a wonderful feeling that he had never felt before, even as an Emperor.
Thus …
"Are you afraid to go?"
"No."
"Then go!"
"Why?"
"There are many benefits!"
"If that's the case …"
