Void Emperor's expression was grave as he looked at Ruthless Emperor before him, the Void Mirror shining brilliantly.
So, walking the path of transformation into a Mortal World Immortal truly brings a qualitative leap in strength! Void Emperor thought to himself.
Though their exchange had been brief, it had already been enough for him to sense Ruthless Emperor's terrifying power.
He could sense that something seemed wrong with Ruthless Emperor's condition. She was likely not at her peak.
Even so, Ruthless Emperor remained unimaginably formidable, her strength already surpassing that of ordinary human Great Emperors.
Was this the difference between a Mortal World Immortal and a human Great Emperor?
Looking at Ruthless Emperor before him, Void Emperor's eyes burned as something deep within him was stirred.
"Please seal off heaven and earth, Great Emperor," Li Ping said to Void Emperor.
Void Emperor nodded. What came next was of great importance and should not be known by outsiders.
The Void Mirror bloomed with dazzling immortal light, sealing this place away so that outsiders could no longer spy on it in the slightest.
Ruthless Emperor remained silent. Her peerless figure stood in the void, aloof from the world and radiating unmatched dominance.
Li Ping looked at Ruthless Emperor and said, "I can revive your brother!"
He got straight to the point without a single false word, fearing that Ruthless Emperor might strike him down immediately otherwise.
Ruthless Emperor's body began to tremble, as though she had been provoked. A terrifying aura instantly crushed the Star River.
Her once-dull face regained its vitality, but it was as cold as frost, like ice that had never melted through the ages.
"Speak!"
Just one word, yet it carried immense majesty—untouchable and unprofanable.
Like an Immortal King standing high above all, she would not permit any living being to defy her will. Her dominance was unmatched.
"This matter is actually not difficult. Heavenly Court can bring back those who have died. Void Emperor is the best example."
Naturally, Li Ping could not say outright that he himself could revive Ruthless Emperor's brother, so Void Emperor became the best excuse.
He merely gave a general introduction to Heavenly Court and informed Ruthless Emperor that both he and Void Emperor were members of it.
All she needed to do was join Heavenly Court and acquire enough Points. Reviving Ruthless Emperor's brother would then be effortless.
Ruthless Emperor looked at Li Ping and Void Emperor with an icy expression, seemingly lost in thought. She remained silent for a long while.
Facing Ruthless Emperor directly, especially without knowing whether she might attack at any moment, no one could possibly remain calm.
Void Emperor, for instance, had remained fully alert. The Void Mirror shone brilliantly, clearly prepared to strike at any time.
Only Li Ping remained composed and unhurried, without the slightest panic, because he had already gained Shock Value.
"Ruthless Emperor was uncertain and greatly shocked. Shock Value +1000000!"
It was settled!
As long as Ruthless Emperor was shocked and began to hesitate, it was settled!
And that was indeed the case. Looking at Void Emperor and Li Ping, Ruthless Emperor truly hesitated.
If someone had told her in the past that they could revive her brother, she would have slapped them to death without a second word.
She had strived for countless years and had only now glimpsed a sliver of hope. Even she did not know whether she could succeed.
Someone could revive her brother? What a joke!
Yet at this moment, she hesitated because Void Emperor stood right before her.
From their exchange just now, she could already be certain that the man before her was undoubtedly Void Emperor.
He had not defied the heavens and lived a second life, nor had his Emperor Corpse Gaining Sentience given rise to a new consciousness.
This was Void Emperor!
He was exactly the same as Void Emperor from over a hundred thousand years ago!
It was as if someone had plucked Void Emperor from over a hundred thousand years ago out of the River of Time and brought him into this era.
If this was not resurrection, then what was it?
If even Void Emperor could return from death, could her brother return from death as well?
The more she thought about it, the deeper that notion took root, like a curse circling through her mind.
Not to become an immortal, but only to wait for your return amid the vast mortal world!
She had been willing to wait so long for even a sliver of hope. How could she refuse the chance to revive her brother?
"What price must I pay?"
Ruthless Emperor's voice remained cold, but it now held a trace of urgency that had not been there before.
Faced with the hope of reviving her brother, even Ruthless Emperor found it difficult to remain calm.
"This matter is actually not difficult. I can revive your brother right now," Li Ping said.
Ruthless Emperor had done many things for Ye Fan. Reviving her brother could be considered this master repaying that karmic debt.
Moreover, Ruthless Emperor's appearance and her battle with Void Emperor were equally beyond measure in value.
"Speak! What price?" Ruthless Emperor said coldly.
She had never liked owing others favors. No matter the cost, as long as it could revive her brother, she could accept it.
"Once you join Heavenly Court, this will not be difficult. It only requires some Points," Li Ping said.
If possible, having Ruthless Emperor join Heavenly Court would naturally be an immensely good thing.
Only he knew that Heavenly Court currently consisted of just Void Emperor and himself.
If Ruthless Emperor could join them, Heavenly Court could at least barely live up to its name.
"I will join Heavenly Court. I will repay the Points tenfold," Ruthless Emperor said.
Her thinking was simple. Since joining Heavenly Court was the only way to revive the dead, then she would join Heavenly Court.
Since reviving the dead required Points, she would repay the man before her tenfold.
"Please wait a moment, Great Emperor," Li Ping said.
He was not naive enough to think Ruthless Emperor was easy to reason with. This time, things were only different because it concerned her brother.
Because it concerned her brother, Ruthless Emperor had been exceptionally cautious and had even made concessions.
If it had been anything else, why would Ruthless Emperor waste words on him? She would have slapped him away long ago.
Today, if he failed to show Ruthless Emperor results, there was no need to think about it—his fate would be miserable.
Void Emperor watched Li Ping with blazing eyes. He wanted to see whether Li Ping could truly revive Ruthless Emperor's brother.
Though he himself was living proof, his situation was special. He had been personally revived by the Heavenly Emperor, master of Heavenly Court.
Within Heavenly Court, one only needed to complete missions to earn Points, and with enough Points, one could revive those who had died.
No matter how he thought about it, it was too incredible, leaving him unable to suppress his doubts.
Hearsay was false; seeing was believing. Only if Li Ping succeeded could he truly set his mind at ease.
Ruthless Emperor's gaze upon Li Ping became incomparably fervent, and a trace of anticipation flashed in her eyes.
She only needed to wait a moment?
After just a little longer, would she be able to see the brother who had died so many years ago?
More than two hundred thousand years had passed, yet her brother's face remained crystal clear in her mind.
More than two hundred thousand years had passed. After striving for so long, was she about to see her brother again?
Her expression, unchanged through the ages, shifted. Her composure, unshaken even if the heavens collapsed, also changed.
Could it truly succeed?
Under the gaze of the two Great Emperors, Li Ping remained calm as he directly began reviving Ruthless Emperor's brother.
Ruthless Emperor's brother had not been highly cultivated, and with his bloodstained clothes now at hand, bringing him back from death was simply effortless!
