Since You Dare Not Come See the Immortal, the Immortal Will Come See You

It's like this again.

Unbridled humiliation, blatant trampling.

It crushed the dignity of a monarch and the respectability of the reigning emperor to shreds.

This is not just contempt and arrogance.

In the eyes of the Immortals, however, he, the emperor of the Liang Kingdom, was no different from the weeds by the roadside.

He was originally the supreme ruler, the emperor who ruled over all people.

However, he was repeatedly humiliated and bullied by the Immortal.

If word gets out, what dignity and authority will he have left?

The resentment and anger in Liang Emperor's heart surged endlessly, and the thought of killing immortals and slaughtering gods rose in his mind once again.

"Thump..."

But he still knelt down.

He knelt before the Immortal.

"Emperor Xiao Chengqian of the Great Liang Dynasty pays respects to the Azure Profound Immortal Venerable."

Seeing this scene,

The eunuch standing nearby wasn't just terrified, he was practically scared to death.

His body trembled violently, curled up in a ball; his mind was buzzing; he was so frightened that his very soul seemed to have fled.

"Alright, get up."

Gao Yunyi leaned back on the dragon throne, casually flipping through the memorials on the imperial desk, and muttered a few words.

Liang Emperor stood up shakily, his face showing no anger at the humiliation from the Immortals, but instead remaining respectful and devout.

He thought he had concealed it Perfect, but he never expected that the red dot on Gao Yunyi's small map in the upper right corner would be so conspicuous and so eye-catching.

Gao Yunyi guessed correctly.

This old, decaying emperor had indeed developed hostility towards him, and even wanted to kill him.

But that's good.

Isn't that right?

Otherwise, his trip to the palace would have been in vain.

He was already impatient to see how this dying old emperor planned to deal with him.

After arriving in the Capital

The old emperor never came to see him again.

For a mortal emperor who is about to die but does not want to die,

This is very abnormal.

Something unusual must be going on.

Therefore, Gao Yunyi came to this palace for two reasons, firstly to confirm his guess.

Secondly, it's because he's too bored.

We've pretty much seen everything in the Capital, except for the Imperial Palace.

After all, modern palace tourist attractions can't compare to the real ancient palaces.

The old emperor was hostile to him.

He doesn't care.

After all, killing the other party is as easy as crushing an ant.

But what he cares about

The question is whether there is anything in this ancient world that could threaten him.

Instead of searching one place at a time,

It would be better to entrust this task to the emperor.

Moreover, this task could only be accomplished by an emperor who possessed the wealth of the entire world and ruled over all directions.

Since you dare not see the immortals, then the immortals will come to see you.

This old emperor was incredibly patient.

It seems I need to give him a little push and add some fuel to the fire.

"Judging from your current state, you haven't taken that Spirit-Gathering Pill yet, have you?"

Gao Yunyi asked the question seemingly casually.

Upon hearing this, Liang Emperor trembled slightly.

He glanced at the eunuch who was huddled up in a ball to the side and then said in a low, cold voice.

"Get out."

"Yes... yes... yes..."

Upon hearing His Majesty's command, the trembling eunuch kneeling on the ground immediately scrambled to his feet in panic, then retreated from the hall with weak legs.

He knew in his heart that he was going to die.

After seeing His Majesty kneel before the Immortal, he was destined to die; no one could save him.

And what he can do now is...

He used this little bit of time to quickly make his final arrangements.

"Immortal wisdom is in your judgment, I have indeed not yet taken that Immortal Elixir."

Liang Emperor answered truthfully.

Gao Yunyi and said, "Why aren't you eating? Don't you like it?"

"No, no, no."

Liang Emperor quickly waved his hand and said...

"I wanted to save it for when it was absolutely necessary."

Gao Yunyi said, "What counts as a critical moment? When you're about to die?"

"There's no need to be so frugal. Although that Spirit-Gathering Pill can prolong your life for a few more days, it can't save your life. You'll still die when it's your turn."

Liang Emperor lowered his head, his fingers clenched tightly inside his sleeve.

Although the Immortal's words were harsh, they were undeniable facts.

Even if it's true, can't you put it in a nicer way?

I am, after all, the emperor.

Couldn't you have been a little more polite and tactful?

"I know, but the country is unstable and the court is in turmoil. I cannot die yet. I need more time to stabilize the court and the country, and then smoothly hand it over to Zhao Huang."

Liang Emperor, with a look of deep concern and profound understanding, spoke.

Gao Yunyi smiled.

If it weren't for the bright red dot in the upper right corner of the map, he really wouldn't have been able to see it.

All I can say is that this old emperor's acting skills are superb, reaching a level of unparalleled mastery.

"If I told you that I truly possessed Immortal Elixir of immortality, wouldn't you really want it?"

Upon hearing this,

Liang Emperor's breathing immediately became heavy and rapid.

He truly didn't want to make enemies of Immortals unless absolutely necessary.

After all, he had already thoroughly read through the reports about Immortals.

Immortals are terrifying beings who can slaughter entire cities and destroy entire camps with the mere gesture of a hand.

If Immortal could grant him the Immortal Elixir of immortality, he would treat the Immortal with utmost respect and would not dare to show the slightest disrespect.

Moreover, he will also exterminate all those involved in the Immortal Killing Plan, including Pei Jingxuan, the Bureau Chief of the Immortal-Slaying Plan Directorate of Heavenly Observations, ensuring that no one is left alive.

But would the Immortals really bestow upon him Immortal Elixir of immortality?

"Hahaha... Just kidding. Even if I had the Immortal Elixir of immortality, I wouldn't give it to you."

Gao Yunyi rested his hand on his forehead, looking at the restless old emperor below with a half-smile.

Upon hearing this, the old emperor was struck dumb.

"Why... why..."

The old emperor's throat was dry, and his voice was low, hoarse, and trembling.

"Because emperors cannot live forever, you have enjoyed a life of wealth and honor, held the power of life and death, and possessed all the honors of the world. If you were to be granted immortality as well, wouldn't that be too unfair to others?"

As Gao Yunyi toyed with the imperial Imperial Jade Seal on the desk, he spoke in a mocking tone.

The Immortal's words were like a powerful hammer blow.

This left Liang Emperor stunned on the spot.

But then a strong sense of resentment and anger surged up again, and it became even more difficult to suppress.

Fair?

Life is inherently unfair.

Immortals were originally mortals.

If you can live forever, why can't I?

But with Immortal in front of me

He dared not utter the words, nor did he dare reveal the slightest trace of his resentment and anger.

To say it aloud would be utterly rebellious, an act that defies all reason and law.

Speak it out.

He was doomed.

"I... understand. Thank you for your guidance, Immortal. I will no longer delude myself into thinking I can live forever."

After saying that,

Liang Emperor then bowed respectfully to the Immortal.

"It's good that you know this. Don't expect things that aren't meant for you. Just enjoy your last moments in peace. If I'm in a good mood then, I might even see you off on your final journey."

Gao Yunyi stepped down from the throne platform, walked past Liang Emperor, and then left the main hall.

He didn't glance at the emperor again throughout the entire process, as if he were invisible.

"I'll just wander around the palace; you don't need to accompany me."

"Oh, by the way, here's a Spirit-Gathering Pill for you. It might just let you live a few more days."

A red Pill was tossed in.

It traced an arc in the air and then gently landed at Liang Emperor's feet.

It was like Root Bone that its owner casually tossed over.

As a dog, you not only can't dislike them, you have to wag your tail and be grateful.

"Thank you for your Immortal gift, Immortal. We respectfully see you off."

After the Immortal's figure completely disappeared,

Liang Emperor straightened his hunched back slightly.

But those cloudy, dull eyes were now bloodshot, and the veins on his withered, aged face were bulging.

This is outrageous!

This is utterly outrageous!

"Puff--"

A mouthful of blood gushed out like a fountain onto the clean, bright gold bricks, and Liang Emperor's face aged visibly.

He collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon, then, with the last ounce of strength, crawled toward the Immortal Elixir on the ground.
