Chapter 1990: Responsibilities Of Emperors (1/2)
The old man had no response to Li Qiye’s pessimism. Keep in mind that World Emperor had twelve wills and even a True Immortal Armament.
No one actually knew how powerful he was, but if one had to pick the strongest emperor in the thirteen continents, he would certainly be in the conversation.
If someone of his level would become helpless in the future, just how terrifying was the darkness?
He eventually said: “Though I come from the divine race, bias aside, it is hard to find someone else in the three races that can compare to World Emperor. That’s why, I’m confident that regardless of the a.s.saulting darkness, World Emperor will hold onto his principles and work for the sake of the continents.”
He remained confident and spoke what was on his mind despite knowing that Li Qiye didn’t get along with World Emperor.
“I hope so.” Li Qiye nodded without refuting.
“Sacred Teacher, what is your path? Do you wish to raise your banner to gather the emperors for the ultimate expedition? After the empresses went back then, there was a lack of result. The thirteen continents calmed down again and no one else brought the expedition up, not even World Emperor or Crimson Emperor.”
“It’ll come, but not right now.” Li Qiye said while shaking his head: “It is a peerless and toughest war for anyone, I can’t carelessly start it without enough preparation!”
There had only been six expeditions in this epoch. So many brilliant emperors and sages have started on this path, only to never be heard of again.
“Right.” The old man nodded: “After Immortal Emperor Qi Zhen started the call, all of the emperors started training before embarking.”
“That’s only training.” Li Qiye said: “In fact, the preparation time for an expedition exceeds your imagination. Qi Zhen already had this idea ever since Min Ren’s fifth one, not just on a whim. She still needed time back then for more preparation so Min Ren started his before her.”
The old man was aware of the difficulties despite not partic.i.p.ating in one. Each emperor needed to pay a heavy price. It was a long war with no time for breaks along the way.
No one knew who started the first expedition, only that Origin Heaven Emperor initiated the second.
The second expedition coincided with the start of the emperors era. It wasn’t as prosperous right now so he didn’t get as many members joining in.
As for the third expedition by Immortal Emperor Fei and Deep South Divine Emperor, the three races were enjoying their golden age. This one was on a ma.s.sive scale compared to the previous.
Then Immortal Emperor Gu Chun called for the fourth, this was indicative of the rise of the hundred races, establis.h.i.+ng their position in the world.
As for the fifth one, it was now the golden age of the hundred races. Many emperors from both sides joined in; the racial barrier seemed to be gone.
The sixth one was a message to the world - that women weren’t inferior to men.
