Chapter 894 - 897: Ambition
Although the two countries once waged war against each other, there is no such thing as justice or evil between nations.
Therefore, Wu Tian forgives the old emperor.
Now, the old emperor bowed his head, his mind in turmoil, while behind him, the Shi Guai Generals were even more anxious.
They had seen everything that happened outside the Royal Palace earlier—a terrifying gorilla rampant, but it eventually disappeared, apparently dying at Wu Tian’s hands!
Such a gorilla could only come from the Divine Clan,
Could Wu Tian even kill the Divine Clan?
Thinking of this, the Shi Guai Generals became extremely nervous.
"Submit the letter of surrender." Wu Tian chuckled, "Then handle your matters yourselves."
The implication was that they should return to the Azure Empire and surrender completely.
But to the old emperor and his company, it seemed to mean...
Surrender, and you may die.
This made them hesitant, but remembering how Wu Tian had made the gorilla disappear, the old emperor and the Shi Guai Generals exchanged glances and drew their swords.
Wu Tian frowned slightly, not understanding what these people intended. It wasn’t until they were about to slash their throats that he stopped them and explained himself clearly.
The old emperor and the Shi Guai Generals breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that Wu Tian intended for them to go back and deal with their internal matters.
Relieved, they departed in peace.
After they left, kings from various realms in the Three Realms also came to visit one after another.
They all had the same concern,
"Will our kingdoms perish?"
"Are you going to unify the Three Realms?"
This was their worry and concern.
What surprised Si’er and others was Wu Tian’s response,
"The Three Realms are too small, they don’t interest me."
This assurance put them at ease, allowing them to leave relieved.
Dao Feng continued drinking,
Zhou Butong looked at his fists, pondering on how to make them more formidable.
Lan Niang and Hong Ji chatted about topics typical for women in the palace.
But Si’er was deep in thought over Wu Tian’s words, and suddenly became nervous, "Sect Leader Big Brother, are you leaving the Three Realms?"
She was originally just a little princess, unloved and unnoticed, living anonymously in a One-Star Kingdom.
But after meeting Wu Tian, her fate changed; she gained this big brother Wu Tian,
She was no longer an anonymous figure, and the One-Star Kingdom became a Three-Star Kingdom because of her.
Each time she stepped out, many people would look at her with eyes filled with admiration.
And all of this was bestowed upon her by Wu Tian.
But in Si’er’s eyes, glory and wealth could not compare to Wu Tian.
Wu Tian was very important in her heart.
If Wu Tian left, Si’er knew she would be reluctant, and she would struggle to handle the affairs of the kingdom.
She was truly afraid of Wu Tian leaving.
"Yes, I am leaving the Three Realms."
Unaware of Si’er’s mixed feelings, Wu Tian nodded.
Though there’s a saying, "A mountain doesn’t have to be high to be famous with an immortal, a river doesn’t have to be deep to be famous with a dragon."
Yet the Three Realms were still too small for Wu Tian, lacking any interest for him.
The reason he stayed here was that several people from the Investiture of the Gods were here, but now they have all grown, and what remains is just a matter of time,
With the passing of time, they are destined to "Return to Position"!
Indeed, although they have received inheritance, it does not imply they have returned to their rightful place.
The most vital thing for Wu Tian now is to restore spiritual energy, which was supposed to be an easy task as it would naturally recover once he returned to the Immortal Emperor Realm,
But now he faced two major issues, the first being that his current spiritual power was Immortal Spiritual Power.
The second was that his current realm had changed somewhat from the realm he had before,
which made the cultivation path Wu Tian had to take rather peculiar.
However, the immediate priority was to go to the Elemental Holy Land to obtain the Qi Element.
"So, Sect Leader Big Brother, are you going to the continent?" Si’er couldn’t help but ask upon hearing Wu Tian’s words,
She felt a bit sour in her heart, as if she was about to cry, but she knew she mustn’t shed tears, although she was only seven years old, she was already a queen, and as the ruler of a kingdom, tears were not allowed.
"Yes, to the edge of the continent, the Forest of Qi." Wu Tian nodded,
Not only that, Wu Tian also wanted to go to the continent to visit the Storytelling Manor and inquire about the old friends from Heavenless Immortal Domain, asking how they were doing now.
"The Forest of Qi." Si’er was startled, "Then when will you depart?"
"Soon." Wu Tian replied bluntly,
On Earth City, there was a master named Jin who had created countless works, one of which said,
"Look at those white clouds, they gather and scatter, scatter and gather, life’s separations are also like this!"
In truth, people are perpetually lonely, and no one can accompany you forever.
"I have no home left, Sect Leader, I will go with you." Dao Feng said after taking a sip of wine, interjecting,
In his memory, in Dao Ji’s recollection, there was a lady named Yan Zhi,
Back when Dao Ji was still Li Xiuyuan,
he had let down this lady Yan Zhi,
Dao Feng intended to find her, see if she was still around.
"Haha, I’m no longer the Sect Leader of the Divine Fist Sect, and I have nowhere to go, so I’ll join you too," Zhou Butong said,
His life had been devoted to martial arts, and following Wu Tian, perhaps he could witness the peak of martial arts!
Si’er, however, had not yet made up her mind and left silently.
She was a queen, and she had her subjects.
... Inside the Royal Palace, two new figures appeared uninvited—it was Ye Qingxian and Ding Xiangjun.
"Junior Sister, Master sent us to investigate Wu Tian, but you haven’t taken any action, so I had to come find you," Ding Xiangjun coldly reprimanded,
She was supposed to be the most valued disciple at the Nine Heavens Pavilion, but ever since Ye Qingxian appeared,
Everything changed, Ding Xiangjun, feeling jealous, found it unpleasant everywhere.
Thus, her words to Ye Qingxian were sharp-edged.
Ye Qingxian, however, was not submissive, casting a lazy glance at Ding Xiangjun without speaking.
Ye Qingxian, her aspirations reaching the sky, saw Ding Xiangjun as the senior martial sister.
But in Ye Qingxian’s heart, she regarded her as an ant.
People and hearts hold different perspectives.
Seeing Ye Qingxian ignoring her, Ding Xiangjun gritted her teeth and said, "Junior Sister, do you have feelings for this Wu Tian?"
Ye Qingxian continued to ignore her, feeling embarrassed to even be associated with her, huffing before turning to leave.
Ding Xiangjun, though seething with anger, dared not act against the leaving Ye Qingxian.
But as if reminded of something, Ding Xiangjun muttered to herself, "Junior Sister, Junior Sister, perhaps I should help you with Wu Tian."
But her smile was sinister, giving the impression that she was up to something.
Now, Ding Xiangjun turned and walked towards a pavilion,
This was where Qin Yuhan resided,
Ding Xiangjun threatened a palace maid to bring her here,
At last, she knocked on the door.
Qin Yuhan curiously approached and opened the door.
"Are you Mr. Wu Tian’s wife? I have something very important to tell you."
