Chapter 1602: The Earthly Sovereign’s Gift
Translator's Note: My creator mission posts are up. Check it out if you want to. In this case I basically wrote a small fanfic from the perspective of Ye Qing's storage artifact, Nine Heavens. He never stopped carrying it, you know?

“I’m about to depart from this world very soon, and this is my final request. You’re not going to refuse me and prevent me from resting in peace, are you?” The Earthly Sovereign said sadly.
“This subordinate... I...” It took a good few seconds before the Soul Collector finally gathered the strength to say, “This subordinate, obeys!”
“Good!” The Earthly Sovereign suddenly broke into a smile. “Oh right, I want you to take care of the boy, but that doesn’t mean you should handle everything for him. A fledgling cannot grow its wings and see the rainbow unless it has weathered the storm, you know?”
The Soul Collector saluted him. “This subordinate understands.”
“Mm. Your work never fails to assure me.” The Earthly Sovereign chuckled. “Alright, you really should stop tugging your facial muscles already. Are you seriously going to send me off with that sad as hell mug of yours? Give me a smile, won’t you?”
The Soul Collector obeyed and tried very hard to relax his facial muscles into a smile. Unfortunately, he could not do it no matter what.
“Oh, forget it. I can’t believe that your smile looks worse than your cry.”
The Earthly Sovereign waved him over. “Come. Sit with me and speak with me for a bit!”
“As you command!” The Soul Collector sat down in front of the Earthly Sovereign.
