"But the Dao Proving Heaven had existed for countless ages, so it should have had kings like you who could govern the realm properly. Yet you alone dominated the Genesis Heaven and occupied the vast world of the Nine Heavens, naturally drawing everyone's attack. In the Genesis Heaven, you were like a treacherous rebel—surely not a good... good thing. Why shouldn't they be able to do the same?" Hua Rong's question extended to the Dao Proving Heaven.
I smiled. "That's a typical Divine Seat way of thinking, isn't it? I took the benefits that had originally been divided among others, so naturally countless people wanted to seize them back. I admit that the Nine Heavens may very well have been where they originated. It's only natural that they would want to reclaim the Genesis Heaven. But wasn't their desire to take back the Nine Heavens also primarily for their own benefit? When two sides fight over the same thing, a battle is naturally unavoidable. So I don't think there was anything wrong with them coming to attack me. It would have been strange if they hadn't."
"Then weren't you still a rebel?" Hua Rong snorted.
"Compared with the Dao Proving Heaven, I'm certainly a rebel who usurped the Nine Heavens. But compared with the Nine Heavens, it may not have been a bad thing. Given the Nine Heavens' current situation, wouldn't they have lived poorly if the Dao Provers from the Dao Proving Heaven hadn't descended to stir up the realm? Do you Dao Provers still not know how difficult it is to reclaim the realm I pacified, even after trying for more than a decade? How is my reputation in the Nine Heavens? How do people speak of me? Have you really been turning a deaf ear to everything
