Emperor’s Domination

your way to the palace itself.”

“I wouldnt care if it was for personal reasons. Declaring war is no problem.” Li Qiye gently sighed: “However, I really wanted to talk this time. I have a good understanding of the ridge, but not as much as the Bonesea. When that day comes, a sea of blood will engulf Heaven Spirit. At that point, maybe the charming spirits, treants, and sea demons will have to face genocide.”

Ruonan softly asked: “Are you worried about me?”

Li Qiye smiled and patted her head: “I have never worried about you before. With your power, even if the disaster was present, you could still leave. However, I know that you wont, especially not during the disaster.”

She didnt answer because her Young Master was correct.

“The Ruonan I know has always faced challenges boldly without trepidation.” He laughed sentimentally.

“I feel satisfied to be praised like this.” She revealed a beautiful smile.

Li Qiye wryly smiled in response and shook his head again: “I have left behind a few things, some preparations that can be useful for you in the future. It is a shame that I cant personally help you pave the way and shoulder the sky.”

“No.” She grabbed his hand and solemnly stared at him: “You have done more than enough for me. Although the world thinks that I am very gifted, I wouldnt have the same achievements today without you. Plus, I dont blame you at all, this is my own choice. You have already paved the way for me to the point of removing all obstacles towards the throne. The reality is that I have disappointed you by choosing to stay.”

With that, even a strong woman like her felt a strange melancholy.

A very long time ago after the end of Immortal Emperor Min Rens generation, Ruonan had many choices because she had severed her bloodline. She could have left Heaven Spirit for good even.

If she chose to become emperor, she would have become one already. With that, she could follow her Young Master above the nine heavens to the world of emperors and gods.

Alas, she ultimately chose to stay in Heaven Spirit instead. This was the most hopeless choice, the path that her father didnt want to see.

She went on to say: “Young Master, you dont owe me anything, it is the opposite. I know that you once hoped for me to become emperor and made sufficient preparations for the day when I embark on that path. I have failed to meet your expectations in that regard.”

Li Qiye helplessly spoke while staring at her: “You really dont owe me anything, it is just a pity that I couldnt force you. Like the wise sages back at Dongting Lake, they had many choices as well, such as picking other fertile lands in the nine worlds to be their home. Ultimately, just like you, they chose to stay in Heaven Spirit. This is your choice as was theirs. Even though I could have commanded all of you to do otherwise, that would be going against your own pursuit. This is your beloved home so you want to contribute. You dont want to see the day when it turns into ashes.” He ended with a sigh.

“Its not just me.” Ruonan gently replied with melancholy: “After great struggles, many people have chosen this path. Immortal Emperors fought on, treefathers used all of their opportunities, and sea gods continued to compromise! Despite being powerless to an extent, they still tried their best to win a glimmer of hope for this land. My father may not have wanted me to stay here, but as his daughter, I should take up this mantle and try my best, whether it is because of my love for this world, the True Martial Island, or the sea demons. If my father was able to face everything, I will not disgrace his lifelong prestige either.”

1. Just to clarify, Im not sure if golden palace here is an actual place or if the author just made up a phrase that means sweeping to the end. Going to do it in a more literal manner just to be safe. Maybe the ridge has a golden palace or something for the end boss.Previous ChapterNext Chapte
