"I wonder if you have the ability to feel human emotions?"
The black-robed Emperor stared at the enraged Ning, who seemed to want to kill him right there and then. The black-robed Emperor seemed to think of something, and he couldn't help but reveal a calm smile on his face. His voice grew gentler as well, as though the earlier verbal exchange had never occurred.
However, the sudden change in the emperor's attitude caused Ning to frown slightly. He had a bad feeling about this.
"I was born powerful, and so I subconsciously believed that you were born insignificant as well. I forgot that you started out as a lowly ant and slowly grew up to become insignificant."
The smile on the black-robed emperor's face grew wider and wider, and a hint of anticipation could be heard in his voice. He truly wanted to see what Ning's next expression would be like. Would he still be as fearless as he was now?
The black-robed emperor's smile grew wider and wider, and Ning's face grew increasingly solemn. He felt a growing sense of unease.
Ensio had been standing behind Ning and planning to step out and help him, but he suppressed the restlessness in his heart. The sudden change in the black-robed emperor's attitude and the two strange questions he had just asked caused him to think of something.
Ensio didn't know if Ning would be able to hold on against the black-robed emperor's trump card. If he stepped out and spoke up for Ning, but Ning admitted defeat or even submitted … was he supposed to face the black-robed emperor by himself?
"I wonder if you have any friends or family since you grew up?"
The black-robed emperor finally revealed the marvelous plan he had just come up with. Ning was different from him; the black-robed emperor was a lifeform that was born with the prime will of the Emperor Chaosverse. He was born with an exalted status that no living creature could compare to him. Ning was one of those lowly ants who had risen above the rest and reached his current level of power.
As ants grew, they would come to know other ants and receive help and grace from other ants.
"What are you planning to do?"
Ning could guess at what the black-robed emperor was thinking. His face was filled with rage. If it wasn't for the fact that he still had a few bits of rationality left in him, he would've already started a battle against the black-robed emperor in Wanjie Lou.
"What else? The Northmoon swords, Northbow swords, and other treasures are too low-level. I haven't been able to sell them for much. I'm planning to go back to my original world and capture some living creatures to sell in Wanjie Lou. The desolate Chaosverse you control is a good place to do so."
The black-robed emperor chuckled softly.
The reason why the black-robed emperor had been surrounded and killed by so many Omega Autarchs was because he had been too arrogant and didn't know how to scheme.
The exalted life form of the Origin Will of the vast Continent World had actually been forced to detonate the Continent World under the joint attacks of over a hundred Ultimate Exalts. How stupid was that?
Omega Autarchs were no ordinary Autarchs. In the entire Desolate Chaosverse, only Ning had reached the Omega Autarch level. In the Sithe Chaosverse, aside from Absolute Beginning, only Iyerre had reached the Omega Autarch level.
The Omega Autarchs were to be in the other Ome...
One could well imagine how long it would take for over a hundred Ultimate Supremes to be born in this vast continent. Over trillions of years, the black-robed emperor actually knew nothing about the schemes of these Ultimate Supremes. Just how careless and foolish was he?
He, however, was different. He knew how to scheme and was intelligent. Even against someone as insignificant as Ning, he would be able to find their weakness and deliver a fatal blow.
If he could enrage Ning to the point of losing his mind in Wanjie Lou, or even force him to attack him in Wanjie Lou, that would be the best case scenario. With Wanjie Lou acting to suppress him, Ning would never be able to recover.
If Ning was able to suppress the rage in his heart and submit to him, he would be willing to accept Ning's submission.
However, if Ning continued to stubbornly resist, then he would make sure that Ning would truly become a loner. In addition, every day, he would be able to watch as the people he was close to became Wanjie Lou's merchandise and be picked over.
"You …"
Upon hearing the black-robed emperor's words, Ning's face turned ashen. He was so angry that his entire body was shaking, but his heart was filled with boundless grief and rage.
He had to admit that the black-robed emperor had grabbed his weak spot.
The reason why he was able to become the Lord Ruler of the Desolate Chaosverse wasn't because of how determined his heart was towards the Dao. Rather, it was because he wanted to be strong enough to protect the Three Realms and the Desolate Chaosverse.
If he hadn't, he would have discovered the incomplete Emperor Chaosverse when he turned back time, and the thought of destroying it would have arisen in his heart.
The reason why he hadn't destroyed the Emperor Chaosverse wasn't because he wanted to see what sort of universe it would evolve into, nor was it because he wanted to benefit from the Emperor Chaosverse. It was because Wanjie Lou's existence had always been a significant threat to him.
He hadn't joined Wanjie Lou yet, and so he didn't know what sort of organization Wanjie Lou was. He had no way of knowing whether or not Wanjie Lou would one day be like Iyerre and invade the Desolate Chaosverse.
If things were as he suspected, how could he possibly resist Wanjie Lou?
In the original world, aside from the Emperor Chaosverse, there was no other power that could stand above the Lords of Chaos.
The Lords of Chaos, however, wouldn't be able to withstand a single blow from Wanjie Lou's overwhelming power. Absolute Beginning was the perfect example of this; Wanjie Lou had trampled him to death.
Aside from worrying about Wanjie Lou's threat, Ning was also extremely wary of Absolute Beginning.
Although the Myriad World Tower attacked [Absolute Beginning], [Absolute Beginning] still had a clone that survived.
Who knew how much Absolute Beginning would grow after leaving his original world? What level of power would he reach?
Thus, he had no choice but to leave the Emperor Chaosverse behind. He wanted to keep a trump card for himself.
"Kneel and beg for mercy, and I'll let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, I won't show any mercy."
The black-robed Emperor swept Ning with a cold glance, then retracted his gaze and turned it towards the ashen-faced Ning. He spoke in a deliberately magnanimous manner. "You're right, Grand Elder.
He already held an absolute advantage in this battle. In terms of power, resources, and tactics, Ning wasn't a match for him at all.
If it wasn't for the fact that Ning was the Lord of Chaos of the Desolate Chaosverse, he wouldn't even hold Ning in any regard.
The Lords of Chaos were there to divide his authority, making it impossible for him to take control of the other Chaosverses as he pleased.
Not only was he going to kill Ning, he wasn't going to spare Absolute Beginning either. Unless these two Lords of Chaos completely submitted to him, he was going to get rid of them sooner or later.
"You want to kill me as well?"
Before Ning could respond, Absolute Beginning pointed a finger at the black-robed emperor, a furious look on his face.
He could sense the cold, murderous intent in the black-robed emperor's gaze.
If he had already chosen to stand by Ning's side, Absolute Beginning wouldn't have said anything if the black-robed emperor wanted to kill him. Both sides were at loggerheads, and Absolute Beginning hadn't even chosen a side yet … but the black-robed emperor had already begun to desire to kill him.
How could Absolute Beginning not be enraged?
He hadn't tried to rope him in or threaten him, but he was planning to kill him?
"No. You aren't the black-robed emperor!"
