"Why..."
Upon hearing this, Quasi-Emperor Qinghe sighed:
"I understand what Brother Taiyu means."
"However, the current situation is the result of compromise among all parties and cannot be easily shaken."
It's obvious without even thinking:
This major battle has ended, but the conflicts and disputes have only been temporarily suppressed.
As long as this core issue remains unresolved, the Emperor Venerable of the five major alliances will inevitably clash one day again.
"Um..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu pondered for a moment, then slowly said:
"Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
"Mutual compromise must have a basic condition."
"Among the five major alliances, there should at least be some resolution regarding the direct descendant of Great Emperor Kunyu."
Upon hearing this, Quasi-Emperor Qinghe gave him a deep look, then suddenly burst out laughing:
"Very well, since I can't hide it from Taiyu, I'll just tell you the truth."
He paused, carefully considered his words, and cautiously said:
"The five alliances not only temporarily co-managed that descendant, but also agreed that any secrets and benefits obtained from her would be shared among the five alliances."
"However, no agreement has been reached regarding the allocation of shares."
"But with the great battle just over, the Emperor Venerable were unwilling to fight again, so they agreed that the five major alliances would each send three Quasi-Emperor to the arena to decide the victor."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu suddenly understood.
The Emperor Venerable fought a fierce battle, with many falling and even more likely injured, leaving them all severely weakened. They really didn't want to engage in any more large-scale warfare.
In this case:
Those who can represent the major alliances in battle must be Peak Quasi-Emperor renowned throughout the continent, which explains why Quasi-Emperor Qinghe was reluctant to tell him.
After all, based on the strength he had previously displayed, he was far from qualified to participate in a dispute of this level.
"Brother Taiyu, please don't be offended. I didn't mean to hide it."
Quasi-Emperor Qinghe looked at him, smiled, and said:
"Currently, our Holy Protection Alliance and the Sun-Chasing Alliance both have a certain advantage in resource allocation, regardless of the outcome of the arena battles."
"After all, that direct descendant of the Great Emperor Kunyu ultimately fell into our hands."
"As for the Sun-Chasing Alliance..."
He shrugged and said helplessly:
"In order to remove the Quasi-Emperor Void King from the list of participants, the other allies had no choice but to make certain concessions."
"Otherwise, if we let him participate in the arena battles, he won't have to do anything, and the rest of us can pack our bags and get out."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu nodded in deep agreement.
The closer you get to a mountain, the more you can appreciate its grandeur and insurmountable nature.
Take him as an example:
After advancing to the Void Penetration Realm, his strength was already at the top level among Peak Quasi-Emperor, but it was still worlds apart from that of Emperor Venerable.
If an Emperor Venerable truly wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't even need to use his clones or incarnations; a single thought would be enough to kill him!
This is the difference between being below and above the Creation Creation.
This gives a glimpse into just how terrifying the Void King, who is capable of rivaling even Emperor Venerable, truly is.
"However, this opportunity to play is truly rare."
"If I could represent the Holy Protection Alliance in battle, aside from other benefits, I'd at least be guaranteed a few Star Soul Life-Creation Pill..."
Thinking this through, Chen Qingyu shook his head inwardly, rejecting the idea.
Currently:
His true strength remains a secret. The only one who knows is the Quasi-Emperor Tianmiao, who suffered a crushing defeat at his hands and was thoroughly beaten. He certainly wouldn't go around publicizing his loss.
This secret is also very advantageous for deceiving the other Emperor Venerable and rescuing the Emperor Venerable Baihua in the future, so he cannot actively compete for this opportunity to go into battle.
He wouldn't risk losing more than he gained by giving up the secrets of the Third Divine Realm for a few Star Soul Life-Creation Pill.
"By the way, Brother Qinghe."
Chen Qingyu suddenly thought of something, his expression shifted, and he said:
"There's one more thing I want to tell you."
"Oh?"
Quasi-Emperor Qinghe an eyebrow, revealing a hint of inquiry:
"What's up?"
Chen Qingyu said frankly:
"While exploring within the Divine Throne, I encountered Quasi-Emperor Xinghe Qingchen Zhao Clan in a small realm, and we joined forces to fight against a powerful enemy."
"But in the end, the Quasi-Emperor Xinghe was unfortunately killed by a powerful enemy, and his life and cultivation vanished."
Upon hearing this, Quasi-Emperor Qinghe's expression changed instantly, a cold glint appearing in his eyes:
"So that's what it was about!"
"I had just returned to the alliance when I learned of the death of this kinsman whose soul lamp had been extinguished. I never imagined that Brother Taiyu would be a witness..."
He looked at Chen Qingyu and asked solemnly:
Who is the murderer?
Chen Qingyu slowly opened his mouth and said:
" Ling River Alliance - Quasi-Emperor Tianmiao!"
Upon hearing this, Quasi-Emperor Qinghe frowned.
" Quasi-Emperor Tianmiao..."
"This person is an outsider, and there has been very little intelligence information about him. All we know is that he has close ties with a rival force of our Qingchen Zhao Clan, which is why he joined the Ling River Alliance."
"Unexpectedly, the Quasi-Emperor Xinghe fell at his hands—this person must be incredibly powerful."
As he spoke, he looked at Chen Qingyu and said:
"Brother Taiyu is truly skilled and daring. Even before his strength had fully recovered, he dared to explore the third level and successfully escape from the clutches of this Quasi-Emperor Tianmiao."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu smiled but did not offer any further explanation.
soon:
After chatting for a while, Chen Qingyu took his leave.
"Boom!"
He rode the beam of light, speeding through the depths of the sea of clouds, and couldn't help but turn back to glance at the even deeper nine-colored clouds:
"Why don't we take this opportunity to meet Emperor Venerable Qinglu?"
Chen Qingyu felt somewhat hesitant.
Since it concerned the direct descendants of Great Emperor Kunyu, he felt he should discuss it with Emperor Venerable Qinglu and also inquire further about the secrets behind it.
"Hmm... let's forget it, it's not wise to act rashly now."
In the end, Chen Qingyu suppressed the idea of visiting Emperor Venerable Qinglu.
However, to his surprise:
After passing through layers of clouds and returning to his residence in the Heavenly Palace, he was surprised to see a familiar figure sitting in his study.
" Emperor Venerable Qinglu?"
At the entrance to the study, Chen Qingyu stared in astonishment at the girl in blue sitting behind the mahogany desk.
"What, you're not welcome?"
Emperor Venerable Qinglu revealed a smile that was neither a smile nor a frown:
"If you don't welcome me, then I'm leaving?"
" Your Emperor Venerable is joking."
Chen Qingyu closed the study door, activated the array, and cautiously said:
" Your Emperor Venerable, you came here secretly to see me. Aren't you afraid of being discovered by others?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Venerable Qinglu casually replied:
You're overthinking it.
"This is just an avatar of mine. Besides, they're too busy dealing with this to care about such a small commotion."
She paused, her expression turning solemn:
"I came here specifically to warn you!"
"I know your strength is far greater than it appears, but you absolutely must not compete for that spot in the competition, and you must not have any connection whatsoever with that descendant of the Great Emperor Kunyu!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu immediately narrowed his eyes:
"May I ask Your Emperor Venerable, what is the reason for this?"
You provided the starting sign-in rewards for the legendary Zhuang Shisan, featuring Chen Qingyu from the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Transformations Zhuang Shisan.
