The moment Emperor Shun vomited blood, the sense of power that came from him turned back normal. The fierceness and coldness were gone. Instead, Emperor Shun looked warm and majestic again, with the sense of power coming from him turning back to strong and stable, much less aggressive than before.
Ji Hao paused for a second. He immediately looked at Emperor Shun’s eyes. The five-colored light faded in those eyes, being replaced by a warm purpleness. But soon, the purpleness was pressed back down by the five-colored light. For an extremely short moment, Emperor Shun’s eyes turned completely glowing and multicolored, then quickly turned back normal.
Wiping the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, Emperor Shun said calmly to those ministers, ”Human beings are facing a great disaster. As the emperor, I failed to save my people from the miserable situatio., I am ashamed. I couldn’t sleep all these days because of the anxiety. It’s just a little bit of blood, I am fine.”
Hearing him, those senior ministers sighed. Some of them tried to comfort Emperor Shun, begging him to take care of himself for all human beings. Under the current situation, the humankind could no longer take any more misfortune, neither could they risk losing their emperor.
Emperor Shun sighed deeply, glanced at Ji Hao, then cupped his hands, and solemnly bowed to Ji Hao.
”Marquis Ji Hao, Fufeng Yu shouldn’t have disrespected you, and I will surely punish him. However, he came all the way to Pu Ban City with his warriors, to devote his own life to the humankind. Marquis Yao, please forgive him this time!”
Emperor Shun sounded especially heavy and sincere. If Ji Hao didn’t know the truth, he would have been touched by Emperor Shun’s words, and wondered if he were truly a heartless man, that he made the emperor vomit blood and apologize for some small thing.
Blinking his eyes, Ji Hao looked at those senior ministers’ serious, worried faces, then helplessly sighed in his head.
Human Magi never cultivated their souls. Instead, they depended on pure physical strength and magic spells. The cultivation system of the humankind allowed human Magi to have amazing strength, but because of this, lacking spiritual powers had become a shortcoming of human Magi. Among all senior ministers on the scene, except for over ten peak-level Divine Magi, even the weakest were at the level of Magus King. But none of them discovered the strange five-colored light in Emperor Shun’s eyes.
Just now, Emperor Shun vomited blood, but not because of the anxiety. Instead, it was because of the strong force that came from inside his body. That strong force clashed against the sky devil, which had occupied Emperor Shun’s body. The collision of two extremely strong forces slightly harmed Emperor Shun’s body and made him vomit blood.
Fufeng Yu walked over. He was severely injured by Ji Hao earlier, but had recovered completely already, as if he had never suffered any injury. With a big smile on his face, Fufeng Yu bowed to Ji Hao over and over again as he said, ”Marquis Yao, Marquis Yao, it was all my fault, all my fault. Everything was my fault. Please, Marquis Yao, we human beings should hold hands and get through this difficult period together. Please, forgive me, for this time only!”
As his eyes sparkled with a dim, weird light, Fufeng Yu pointed at the large puddle of blood on the ground and continued sadly with a dry voice, ”These stupid things offended you, Marquis Yao, they deserved to die, they truly deserved to die!”
Ji Hao raised his eyebrows while looking at Fufeng Yu with a faint smile. Even now, this Fufeng Yu had still been trying to entrap him.
Glancing at those senior ministers, Ji Hao then looked at Emperor Shun, who still had his hands cupped, while bowing slightly to Ji Hao. Ji Hao knew that if he dared to continue saying anything unfriendly to Fufeng Yu in front of all those senior ministers, he would have no place in the human society anymore.
