" Chen Mu, do you really think the Asura Sacred King will leave?"
On the way back to the Manju Imperial Palace, Mingye said with concern.
"Yes, the Asura Sacred King is a person who knows how to assess the situation."
It wouldn't be difficult for him to relocate his people to other planes; staying in the Netherworld and fighting us to the death would bring him absolutely no benefit.
In the Netherworld, there are six Ancient Starry Sky Road, each connecting to different planes and leading to different places.
Although the Netherworld rejects beings from other Netherworld because it has no Netherworld Lord, its native beings can freely enter and exit the Ancient Starry Sky Road.
The Ancient Starry Sky Road in the Netherworld is currently fully open. Anyone who sets foot on the Ancient Starry Sky Road only needs to provide enough Spirit Stone or World Crystal to activate the Starry Sky Passage and travel to the plane they wish to go to.
Although opening the Ancient Starry Sky Road requires a considerable amount of Spirit Stone, it does not limit the number of people. As long as there is a powerful cultivator leading the Ancient Starry Sky Road, it is not a problem for tens of thousands of people to go at once. That's why Chen Mu believed that the Asura Sacred King would definitely leave.
" The Asura Clan has over a million people. I doubt he'll take them all; at most, he'll take ten or twenty thousand."
The rest will go into hiding, living as ordinary members of the Nether Clan. However, they are not a threat; killing them or not makes no difference.
Luo Nianhan spoke up to remind him.
"That's right, our goal is to drive away the Asura Sacred King and unify the Netherworld as soon as possible."
Those minor, peripheral matters can be left to the subordinates to handle.
There are still many crises to deal with on the Pan Emperor Continent. I may need the help of the Manju Sacred King at that time. I don't want there to be any more worries here.
Chen Mu nodded in agreement.
"Oh, right! The Supreme Evil Sacred King said that he awakened the three Night Watchers and asked them to jointly elect a new Netherworld Lord."
"Now that we're almost unified in the Netherworld, have they decided on Netherworld Lord yet?"
Last month, my mother took me to meet three Night Watchers, who wanted me to succeed as Netherworld Lord.
However, I've heard that after absorbing the Heart of the Netherworld, one cannot leave the Netherworld for at least ten years, so I'm still hesitating about whether to absorb it now."
If it were anyone else, knowing they could inherit the position of Netherworld Lord, they would probably have agreed long ago.
But Mingye didn't. Ten years might be a fleeting moment for other cultivators, but for her and Chen Mu, it was a long time. She would absolutely not agree to it until Chen Mu returned from the Pan Emperor Continent.
The fusion with the Heart of the Netherworld is a gradual process. Perhaps Mingye can make a move in the Netherworld a year later, but it will take at least ten years to leave the Netherworld. Otherwise, it will not only damage the origin of the Netherworld, but may even harm the Netherworld Lord himself.
Ten years? That's definitely too long!
" The Pan Emperor Continent is on the verge of chaos. Without your help, I'll have a hard time dealing with it alone."
Chen Mu was telling the truth. The three great divine rulers were about to descend to the mortal realm. If Chen Mu did not find a way to deal with them, the Chen Kingdom would be in great danger.
Mingye has always been an important helper to Chen Mu, and if she could return to the Chen Kingdom to help, it would be a huge boost.
"Actually, I want my mother to take the throne of the Netherworld Lord in my place. If I really have time in the future, it's the same if my mother passes the throne to me."
However, the three Night Watchers disagreed; they only wanted me to become the Netherworld Lord, but they did not acknowledge the Queen Mother.
Mingye sighed and added.
The Heart of the Netherworld is closely related to the Heavenly Dao the Netherworld. The Manju Sacred King has established the Imperial Court for many years and is blessed with good fortune, so the speed at which he merges with the Heart of the Netherworld should be much faster. He is indeed a very good candidate.
"That's alright! We're about to unify the Netherworld, so whether they agree or not is no longer important."
As long as the Manju Sacred King remains the ruler of the Imperial Court, the Heart of the Netherworld will soon merge with her on its own; it's just a matter of time.
Chen Mu waved his hand and said with a smile.
