Chapter 1371: An Elder At Home (2)
Su Yu asked, "Lord, were those legislators Emperors as well?"
"No. Pseudo Emperors." The old turtle said, "As I said before, Emperor and Pseudo Emperor are not actual cultivation levels. Those are merely titles. Status symbols. There has only ever been one Emperor in existence. However, there can be countless Pseudo Emperors in existence. That is not a cultivation level. That is merely a title given to the leader of a race."
The old turtle emphasized, "Each legislator was a Pseudo Emperor. They might be at the Daofuse Realm or some other realms. Some might even have the same cultivation level as the Human Emperor. They were merely weaker in combat strength. After the Human Emperor conquered the Myriad Realms, these experts were all forced to reduce their ranks and call themselves Pseudo Emperors instead."
Understanding dawned on Su Yu. Right. Why must a Pseudo Emperor be lower in cultivation level than the Human Emperor? That was not a cultivation level. That was merely a status symbol.
Su Yu nodded, "Thank you for the guidance, Lord. I finally understand. Thus, you will never call yourself a Pseudo Emperor. Instead, you will only call yourself a Daofuse. Am I right?"
"No. I'm a Pseudo Emperor."
The old turtle explained seriously, "All grand dream turtles are dead. I am the sole surviving member of this race, making me the leader and the Pseudo Emperor of this race. You're wrong, Su Yu."
"..."
Su Yu was rendered speechless. Why couldn't the old turtle be more mature at such an age?
The old turtle started roaring with laughter. After a while, he finally stopped and asked, "Are you here to get your yang acupoint sealed again? Your yang acupoint will be full after opening it a few more times. I can seal it again, but remember that each time you reopen it, its absorption speed will increase. You have to take note of this."
"Thank you, Lord!"
