"Why haven't they started yet?! What the hell are they doing?!" Watching the two men in the sky who still had yet to make a move, the Poison King roared inwardly. He wished he could go up and tell them, Hurry up and fight to the death! The kind where it wouldn't end until someone died—preferably both of them.
The Poison King was furious, while everyone else was puzzled. Even if they were exchanging words before the battle, there was no need to talk for so long! Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the First Prince finally raised his hand.
However, he was not launching an attack or making some harsh declaration. Instead, he said, "I concede...!"
"Are you sure? Conceding means giving up the position of Poison Emperor." Elder Ba was rather surprised upon hearing this and could not help asking.
The First Prince nodded slightly, then descended and looked at everyone. "I'm sure. I concede!"
After saying that, he turned to Nan He and smiled faintly. "I never really wanted to be the Poison Emperor anyway. You know that, little sister. Ever since I was young, I've liked traveling everywhere..."
"Hehe, I had actually wanted to protect you. But since you've made your choice and have the ability to claim the position of Poison Emperor, then so be it. It saves me the trouble."
"Big Brother...!" Nan He murmured. Complicated emotions instantly surged into her heart. She recalled how, when their father had once asked what the three siblings wanted most, her eldest brother had said he wanted to travel the continent and see every mountain and beautiful landscape. Her second brother had said he wanted to protect everyone forever. As for her, she had said she wanted to become someone who surpassed their Imperial Father...!
Time had passed.
