One moment she had been teaching him how to be an investor. Why was she suddenly talking about running away?
Ronan was thrown for a loop.
Regardless of his reaction, the Martial Emperor continued, "You've always said you're only temporarily assuming the role of a 'God on Earth.' That's a good idea, and your thinking is sound. But a 'god seat' isn't easy to climb onto, or to jump off.
"Since you've already made a spectacle of yourself, the corresponding imprints will remain in the Mental Ocean for a very long time. Those are the traces you've left behind, and they're also what the Myriad Heavens Gods will work to erase.
"So, regardless of who ultimately wins this contest between you and Li Wei, you'd better plan ahead. It's too early to talk about resistance. Running is a little more realistic, and you'll need a few Golden Cicada Sheds its Shell tricks, too."
"Uh, really?" Ronan felt a little dazed.
The Martial Emperor's words were like that vague spacetime structure he had described in his Ritual Ancient Script text, leaping instantly from the Han Guang Star System to Earth Local Time-Space. Who knew how many details had been compressed or omitted along the way...
But with that thought, something suddenly clicked for Ronan:
When the Martial Emperor spoke of being an "investor," she meant the present; when she spoke of "running away," she meant the future. It was just like the connection between the Han Guang Star System and Earth Local Time-Space. He might not know how they were connected, but the connection itself was already an established fact.
Actually, she might have been getting a little too far ahead of things. Whether it was "running away" or her earlier talk of "being killed" and "ending up in a museum,"
