When the loud voice came down from the heavens, it was like the voice of God. It even caused the heavens and the earth to quake. The top powers broke out into a cold sweat, as if the destructive power would land on them at any time.
The golden figure stood in the sky with one hand behind his back, exuding the aura of the Dominator. Under such a great power and influence, the top powers fell down on their faces. Even the Earthly Sovereigns felt the oppression and dared not look at him.
No one had expected the War Emperor from the Western Kingdom War Temple to appear in this place! In the face of such a great power, Luo Li continued to lift up her head to look at the Shadowspirit. Although she trembled a bit under the oppression, she remained fearless.
She looked at the golden figure and said, ”Thank you for your kindness, War Emperor. However, I do not want to be the Holy Maid. Please choose someone else.”
The top powers swallowed hard when they heard what Luo Li had said. They could not believe that she had so boldly rejected him.
On the other hand, Xue Lingzi was elated. He had expected the Luo God Clan to use this opportunity to make a comeback, but Luo Li was not interested in being recruited by the Western Kingdom War Temple. In fact, she was strongly against it.
As long as the War Emperor was enraged, the Luo God Clan could be exterminated!
”How dare you!” When Lin Dong Elder heard what Luo Li had said, he was furious.
He then asked sharply, ”Luo Li, do you know the consequences of rejecting the Emperor? Do you know what will happen to your clan because of your willfulness?”
Luo Li stared hard at Lin Dong Elder and said, ”At most, I will die. As for my clan, I believe that they would rather die than tarnish our ancestors' reputations!”
Luo Li's voice resounded in the area and stirred up the spirits of her fellow clansmen. Their ancestors used to be the masters in The Great Thousand World, and they were more powerful than the West Heaven War Emperor in terms of reputation and strength.
As such, they were prideful people, who loved Luo Li and held her in high esteem. She was like a god to them, so if Luo Li had to sacrifice herself in order for them to survive, they would rather die!
Many people of the Luo God Clan lifted their heads, no longer looking fearful. Instead, they stared angrily at Lin Dong Elder.
Many top powers looked at Luo Li in amazement. Although she was a female, her courage and spirit had won their respect.
Lin Dong Elder turned pale instantly. He had not expected that his threat would stir up the pride of the Luo God Clan. He had clearly underestimated Luo Li, as this girl possessed an extraordinary spirit and charm!
”Hohoho, no wonder Luo God selected you…” The golden figure in the sky clapped his hands. He was not enraged by what Luo Li had said. Instead, he was filled with admiration for her.
He turned to look at Lin Dong Elder and said, ”In a relationship, both parties have to be willing. When have I ever forced such upon anyone?”
When Lin Dong Elder heard this, he quickly acknowledged his fault. The top powers secretly nodded their heads in admiration of the War Emperor's magnanimity. As the Dominator of the Western Kingdom Continent, he had behaved in an appropriately dignified manner.
Mu Chen squinted his eyes when he saw this interchange. He did not believe that the War Emperor would let the matter rest so easily.
After the War Emperor had reprimanded Lin Don Elder, he looked at Luo Li and said, ”Since you refuse to accept the offer, I will not force it upon you. However, I will keep the position open for you. If you change your mind, you can always come to me and we will revisit the issue.”
Luo Li calmly said, ”I am afraid that I will keep disappointing you then.”
The War Emperor did not say a word, but just smiled at Luo Li. He then shifted his gaze to Mandela and said, ”I will set the matter of the Holy Maid aside for now. However, this Ancient Mandala Flower keeps challenging my authority. She needs to be taught a lesson!”
Everyone was shocked when they heard his words. They looked at Mandela in amazement, as they had not expected her to be an Ancient Mandala Flower.
Mu Chen's and Luo Li's hearts sank instantly. Although the War Emperor had told Luo Li that he would leave the matter of the Holy Maid aside for now, he had instantly shifted his target to Mandela. Moreover, it was apparent that he was angry!
”War Emperor, won't it reflect badly on you if you fuss over such things?” Luo Li asked.
The War Emperor smiled and said, ”If I let her off, the others may think that they can trample over us as well. Don't worry. I will bring these two people back to the Western Kingdom War Temple only for a period of time. After they have been disciplined, I will let them go. I will not kill them.”
Luo Li's face turned cold instantly. The War Emperor not only wanted to bring Mandela with him, but he wanted to punish Mu Chen as well!
