The Myriad Spirits Emperor and a Shocking Conjecture
The Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty.
Chang Le Hall.
Chen Ning and Zhao Yinyin waited there together.
Song Huai, the Celestial Person Song, went to report some recent news to the emperor.
Soon.
A middle-aged man who looked to be around fifty years old walked over calmly.
He wore a golden crown and had a sharp gaze; this man was none other than the emperor of the Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty.
He is also the ruler of the entire Azure Heaven Realm.
Zhao Jin.
As he approached, Zhao Yinyin immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Father Emperor."
The clear, sweet voice softened the sharp look in Zhao Jin's eyes.
"It's good that you're back."
He spoke calmly.
Song Huai had already told him everything that had happened during this period.
He also understood how his son had schemed to seize the Golden Leaf Rice Seeds, and how he had gone so far as to send Grandmaster to silence him, almost killing his own sister.
That's quite a grand gesture!
Now.
Zhao Jin then looked at Chen Ning and said, "Xiaoyin was able to escape alive thanks to your excellent protection. Thank you very much."
You're exaggerating.
"At this moment, this is my gratitude as a father to you; please accept it."
Although Zhao Jin said this, his words still exuded imperial dominance.
No wonder.
In the Azure Heaven Realm, only the Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty reigns supreme.
That's practically equivalent to being the king of the world.
Even if the Vast Land is ten thousand times larger, and one can cultivate to become a god, there is truly no individual or force that can achieve absolute supremacy.
Even a god.
There is also an equally powerful god to counterbalance it.
"Father, Grandpa Song must have told you everything, right? My eldest brother is not only interested in the Golden Leaf Rice Seeds, but he also colludes with court officials and raises a group of powerful figures. I can investigate the specific evidence..."
"No..."
Zhao Jin said indifferently, "I have already sent the Imperial Guard to arrest him, and those in the court who are associated with him have all been imprisoned."
"So Father Emperor had already noticed all along?"
Zhao Yinyin was somewhat surprised. Even if her father wanted to use the Golden Leaf Rice Seeds to lure out those who harbored malicious intentions, he wouldn't have acted so quickly against those court officials who colluded with the First Prince if he hadn't already suspected them.
Suddenly.
Zhao Yinyin remembered something else and said, "Father, and Carefree King, perhaps they also have ulterior motives. Otherwise, why would he capture Master Qin and desperately want the Golden Leaf Rice Seeds?"
"The Carefree King took control of Master Qin to ensure the stability of our dynasty and prevent any trouble."
"So, Carefree King's actions were also on your orders, Father Emperor?"
"Alright! You may all leave. I still have some things to think about."
Zhao Jin did not answer.
Not long after.
Chen Ning then returned with Zhao Yinyin to Mysterious Sound Courtyard, which was Zhao Yinyin's residence.
"Chen Ning, I still find something strange."
Throughout the journey, Zhao Yinyin had been frowning, and now she looked at Chen Ning with even greater confusion.
"Don't you understand?"
Chen Ning laughed and said, "It's obvious that the Carefree King wasn't acting on your father's orders. He has his own agenda, but your father just doesn't want to say it outright."
"As for the reason, it could be an unwillingness to believe it, Deceiving People, but more likely it's..."
Chen Ning said solemnly, "Your father is wary of the Carefree King."
"What you're saying makes sense."
Zhao Yinyin suddenly realized, "The Carefree King is the third Celestial Person in our dynasty. It's indeed not easy to touch him."
"By the way, didn't you say that the Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty has three Celestial Person? Besides Elder Song Huai and the Carefree King, who is the other one? Is he under your father's command?"
To be honest, I don't know who that person is either.
Zhao Yinyin shook her head and said, "Or rather, apart from Grandpa Song, no one has ever seen him. But Grandpa Song once announced to the world that there was another Celestial Person being guarding the court, which is why it has been widely circulated. However, this person has never shown himself."
"Has it never happened before?" Chen Ning stroked his chin with interest.
"Yes, according to Grandpa Song, this person is aloof and lives in seclusion in the mountains and rivers. He will only come out to save the world when the Azure Heaven Realm and the Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty face great calamity..."
Chen Ning thought for a moment and asked, "When did Old Master Song Huai announce this Celestial Person Being to the world? It should have been earlier than the Carefree King, otherwise, he wouldn't have been called the third Celestial Person."
Zhao Yinyin nodded and said, "Yes, back then, the Carefree King was in seclusion trying to break through to the Celestial Person Realm. Just as he was about to emerge from seclusion, Grandpa Song announced to the world that besides him, there was another Celestial Person who took it upon himself to protect the Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty and the common people of the Azure Heaven Realm."
"Oh, that's interesting."
Chen Ning laughed and said, "Tell me, is it possible that the third Celestial Person doesn't even exist? Your father was worried that the Carefree King might develop rebellious intentions after ascending to Celestial Person, so he had Old Master Song Huai announce this to the world to appease the Carefree King."
Upon hearing this...
Zhao Yinyin's beautiful eyes widened. "If what you say is true, it is indeed possible. So, even if Father Emperor knew that Carefree King had ulterior motives, he didn't dare to act rashly against him. I thought it was because he was worried about causing trouble, but now it seems that Grandpa Song is old. If he really doesn't have the help of that mysterious Celestial Person being, he probably won't be a match for Carefree King."
