Chapter 1854: Embark (1/2)

“True indeed, Your Excellency. Shouldering the will is only the beginning, not the end.” Star Stomper High G.o.d emotionally commented.

Someone of his level knew quite a bit about the mysteries of this realm. He continued: “That brat, Ren Sheng, had lost one chance but he still has potential. More importantly, he has the Unstoppable bloodline. If you are interested, you can go have a look.”

No wonder why Star Stomper was recommending a human junior. This person’s Unstoppable bloodline was one of the two human ancestral bloodlines right below the Human-monarch bloodline. It was on the same level as the Nine Cauldrons. If such a youth could become an Immortal Monarch, his future was indeed promising.

“Leave that up to fate. The opportunity will be there if it’s meant to be.” Li Qiye chuckled and said.

Star Stomper nodded after hearing this. Ren Sheng might be incredible but His Excellency had met too many geniuses, some with an immortal bloodline. Just an ancestral bloodline might not necessarily interest him.

“Your Excellency, where are you going this time? To Exploration Grounds and see some emperors?” Star Stomper asked.

Many emperors and G.o.ds were hiding in the boundless Exploration Grounds. A being eligible for a meeting of this level would need to go there to see them.

“Yes.” Li Qiye nodded: “But I haven’t decided whether I want to see the emperors. I’m planning on visiting Remote Wildland. That place is connected to me as well.”

“Remote Wildland…” Star Stomper slightly frowned: “That’s not an easy place to be. I heard World Emperor took a trip there and came back empty-handed.”

This was a place even emperors didn’t carelessly visit.

“It’s fine.” Li Qiye leisurely said: “A few things can’t be forced. It is only an attempt, it’s fine to fail because this is too old to retrace and understand.”

“I know you can do it, Your Excellency. If you can’t, others won’t have a chance.” Star Stomper smiled.

Li Qiye smiled and agreed with a nod: “Whose idea is it to close off the thirteen continents this time?”

“I didn’t partic.i.p.ate in the conference but I heard that it had something to do with the heaveners and Celestial Palace. World Emperor has nothing to do with this. During the few generations of your absence, there had been visual phenomenons, resulting in all kinds of speculation. This generation has even more than before. Because of this, the emperors discussed the sealing of the thirteen continents and sever the pa.s.sageways between them, so that they won’t be caught entirely off guard when a disaster descends.”

“It’s a reasonable take.” Li Qiye chuckled: “Who knows what will happen after the ultimate expedition? They still haven’t forgotten about the lesson of the Ancient Ming setting a precedence. It’s better to be careful and prepared.”

“In my opinion, they’re selling dog meat disguised as deer. The sixth expedition happened so long ago and they’re doing this now? There are some ulterior motives.” The High G.o.d smiled: “I believe they are afraid of you coming to the tenth world again so they took the initiative to seal the continents and hide all divination in order to ambush you.”

“That’s inconsequential. Even without the seal and any reinforcement, I’ve already talked to the others about it before leaving. World Emperor had opposed me long enough, he is aware of many things but chose against divulging them.” Li Qiye said.

“I’m sure they will try to settle the score.” Star Stomper said: “The three races still haven’t forgotten about Emperor Hunt. They won’t let it go so easily.”

Li Qiye gently shook his head: “Who knows the real a.s.sailants at that point? The future is impossible to grasp. We might not be the only preys then, even the three races might not be able to escape this fate.”

“Your Excellency, you mean…” Star Stomper was aghast. Li Qiye’s comment meant that the situation wasn’t optimistic at all.

Li Qiye replied: “It’s only a possibility. Enough time had pa.s.sed, this level of acc.u.mulation can be considered a golden age. There are laws and order to everything in this world, such as a decline after the apex. It’s not surprising.”

Star Stomper became dejected and said: “Will I have to see that day?”

Li Qiye shook his head: “Hard to say. Well, let us stop talking about this since it will only bring about needless anxiety. Let it go.”

“Very well.” Star Stomper smiled back.

The two haven’t met for a long time so they decided to catch up instead of focusing on bigger problems.

The Peng Clan was jubilated because of their forefather’s return. Many wanted to meet him but he didn’t care at all.
