A flicker of displeasure crossed Immortal Emperor Yun Hao's eyes, but his smile did not fade. "Immortal Qingci speaks with reason, of course. But times have changed. The man you await ventured deep into the Heavenly Ruins, a deadly expanse, and has not returned in thirty thousand years. I fear the void consumed him long ago.

His tone was earnest, as though he truly had Ye Qingci's interests and the greater good at heart. But everyone heard the threat beneath his words.

He wanted to cultivate with her as his dual partner to break into a higher realm. He even coveted her Origin, hoping to devour it.

The God Race Envoy sneered. "The signs of the World Will's awakening grow clearer by the day. Where is the time for that?

Will the Human Race cling to the empty name of a man long dead and jeopardize the cause of defying heaven?"
