Spiritual light shot through the cloud and lit up the universe.
More than 10 treasures were suspended in midair. Without exception, they were all priceless and rare.
Many important figures were hopeful, hoping that Ling Xian would accept the treasures.
"I appreciate everyone's kindness, but please take back your gifts." Ling Xian faintly grinned. If he accepted it, then these people would have a reason to beg for his help.
"I …"
Everyone exchanged glances. Other than the Meng ancestor and the elder in grey, everyone else was disappointed.
The reason why the two of them were not disappointed was because they lent Ling Xian the incomplete immortal weapons. Even if Ling Xian didn't accept their gifts, they wouldn't make things difficult for the Meng Clan and the Taichu House.
Everyone else didn't form a good relationship with Ling Xian, so of course they were disappointed.
"Your Majesty, I have a granddaughter. She is as beautiful as a flower and is a national beauty."
A grey-haired elder chuckled, "If you don't mind, you can take her in as a maid to warm your bed."
Hearing this, everyone chimed in. Even if she is a concubine, they all wanted to marry their daughter to Ling Xian.
That was the charm of an emperor.
In this era where there are no immortals and no Gods, the emperor is an undefeatable existence. All living beings in the universe have to bow down to him.
In order to build a relationship with him, not to mention one woman, even if they had to pay a hundred, there would still be countless people willing to do so.
"I already have a companion."
Ling Xian shook his head and laughed. Holding onto Lin Qing Yi's hand, he said, "I appreciate everyone's kindness."
"Ling Xian …"
Lin Qing Yi's face was slightly red. In front of so many people, she naturally felt a little embarrassed. But more than that, she was happy.
Especially after feeling the countless gazes of jealousy, her heart was as sweet as honey.
Ling Xian was the ruler of the world and he had publicly announced that Lin Qing Yi was his companion. Which woman wouldn't be jealous?
"I was rude, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
The grey-haired elder was sweating. Those who wanted to marry their daughter to Ling Xian were also nervous.
To talk about marriage with Ling Xian in front of Lin Qing Yi was no different than seeking death.
"It's okay. Those who don't know are not to be blamed."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "I won't accept your gifts. There is no need to bring up the marriage again."
Everyone sighed when they heard this, and they couldn't conceal their disappointment.
Ling Xian was the ruler of the world. If they don't form a good relationship with him, they wouldn't be able to rest easy.
"I know exactly what you are worried about. Don't worry, my existence will not affect the situation of the universe."
"As long as you don't provoke me, you will still be high and mighty."
Ling Xian faintly grinned. Throughout history, the majority of the Emperors who ruled over an era would rule over the universe and the world.
However, he was not interested in power.
Besides, the invincible Divine Ancestor was about to be born, and it was unknown whether the universe could survive the crisis. How could he be in the mood to rule the universe?
"With the Great Emperor's words, I can rest assured." The white-clothed old man heaved a sigh of relief, and so did the others.
"I have other business to attend to. I won't keep you company." Ling Xian faintly smiled. Holding onto Lin Qing Yi's hand, they rode the wind and left.
The destination was the Peacock Imperial Court.
It was fine if the leader of the Peacock Dynasty broke his promise, but he imprisoned Little Stone. This was something Ling Xian could not tolerate.
Therefore, he wanted to go to the Peacock Imperial Court to seek justice.
"To be able to witness the birth of a legend and the rise of the Great Emperor, I have no regrets in this life."
"Every time I think about how he is less than 200 years old, I find it hard to believe."
"That's right. He is far too heaven-defying. Compared to him, I am not even an ordinary person."
Watching Ling Xian's silhouette disappear into the distance, everyone exclaimed and felt honored.
Because they were witnesses to history.
Without a doubt, Ling Xian's name will go down in history. To be able to witness him rule the world, of course, everyone felt honored.
…..
The Sun was like blood, shedding down light.
In the sky, Lin Qing Yi played with her bangs, "Those people's pearls are all very pretty. Why didn't you say yes?"
"No matter how pretty they are, they aren't as pretty as you." Ling Xian softly smiled and calmly resolved Lin Qing Yi's accusation.
"Then if they were prettier than me, would you have said yes?" Lin Qing Yi's dimples continued to grow.
"First of all, there is no woman prettier than you in this world. Second of all, even if there is, I wouldn't say yes." Ling Xian softly smiled.
"Is that so …"
Lin Qing Yi's smile did not diminish, "You have many female friends. They are all extremely beautiful. If they want to marry you, would you say no?"
"Ehem … ehem …" Ling Xian dryly coughed, unsure of how to respond.
Gong Suo Xin and the other female friends loved him deeply. They were willing to give up their lives for him. How could he abandon them?
"I will not tease you anymore."
Lin Qing Yi shook her head, "I would be lying if I said I am not jealous. But they love you deeply, not one bit less than me. If you abandon them because of me, I would not be able to live with my conscience."
"Qing Yi …" Ling Xian's heart warmed. Lin Qing Yi's words indicated that she was willing to accept them. Why wouldn't he be touched?
"Back then, my sisters and I rushed to Yuezhou. They all loved you deeply. Even if they gave up their lives, they didn't hesitate."
Lin Qing Yi softly sighed, "If I don't allow you to marry them, wouldn't I be a jealous wife?"
"Thank you, Qing Yi."
Ling Xian looked at Lin Qing Yi gently, "In this lifetime, I will not betray you."
"With these words of yours, I am satisfied."
Lin Qing Yi softly smiled, "However, I will not allow you to be merciful. You cannot be like the previous emperors and have 3,000 concubines."
"I am satisfied that you have one." Ling Xian shook his head and chuckled. With his capabilities today, he could even have 30,000 concubines.
But what was the point?
The women who married him did so because he was the ruler of the world.
Only Lin Qing Yi, Gong Suo Xin, and the other female friends truly loved him. No matter how he changed, their love would not fade.
"I am satisfied as well."
Lin Qing Yi's smile was enough to topple cities. Her finger pointed at Ling Xian's left chest, "Your heart is with me. You have no regrets in this life."
Hearing this, Ling Xian stroked Lin Qing Yi's hair and smiled, "Let's go. I will take you to see my second apprentice."
Then, he no longer spoke and flew towards the Peacock Dynasty.
…..
Inside the Peacock Dynasty's royal palace, all the officials stepped out of their ranks and spoke like a river.
However, the leader of the Peacock Dynasty was no longer in the mood to listen.
This was because he had received news that Ling Xian's foundation was complete and that he had defeated three cultivators close to the Dao.
Though the Peacock Dynasty had been around for tens of thousands of years and even the six leaders were afraid of them, they had no cultivators close to the Dao. Ling Xian had defeated three cultivators close to the Dao and destroying the Peacock Dynasty was as easy as flipping his palm.
Therefore, the leader of the Peacock Dynasty was fearful and regretful.
If he knew that Ling Xian could have such a flawless foundation even though he was already a God, he wouldn't regret it even if he was beaten to death!
"Let's end the court."
The leader of the Peacock Dynasty sighed. He knew that what awaited him was death. His only chance of survival was Little Rock.
Thus, he ordered the eunuch to release Little Rock.
Just then, a cold voice echoed throughout the Peacock Dynasty, making the leader of the Peacock Dynasty's expression change.
"You dare to imprison my apprentice. Your Majesty, you sure have guts."
