Chapter 6308: Lord Xuantian
“But Qin Jiu didn’t make an attempt on the Dharma Emperor’s life right away. He opted for self-preservation, but he also used the remnant’s formation to seal off a small portion of the Dharma Emperor’s Divine Body.
“According to Qin Jiu, the seal wouldn’t affect the Dharma Emperor’s cultivation and fighting prowess, but it would limit his future growth. He did so because the remnant’s formation could only seal off that much, and this was the most effective way he could coerce the Dharma Emperor into giving in.
“The Dharma Emperor understood the position he was in and gave in. I only obtained some cultivation resources out of the remnant, but I heard Qin Jiu used this to coerce the Dharma Emperor into helping him many times, though I don’t know if the Dharma Emperor ended up helping him or not.
“Many years passed, and countless incidents happened. The reputation of Qin Jiu and I slowly grew, and he became the only world spiritist to attain the title of ‘Emperor’. However, he wasn’t fond of the title and continued to use his name, Qin Jiu.
“By then, Qin Jiu had obtained the most powerful Immemorial Era’s world spiritist legacy and was no longer afraid of the Dharma Emperor. Even though the Dharma Emperor had used his strength to exploit us back in the remnant, he isn’t a wicked person through and through. He had a decent reputation. I thought that it was about time to resolve this matter.
“One day, Qin Jiu invited me over to discuss the removal of the seal placed on the Dharma Emperor’s Divine Body. But once I was there, he made a terrible suggestion—he said that we shouldn’t return the Dharma Emperor’s power that easily. The seal might be minor, but it would impede the Dharma Emperor’s future cultivation.
“As long as the seal remained, we could continue coercing the Dharma Emperor to do our bidding. He was the one who tried to take advantage of us in the first place, so he shouldn’t blame us for doing the same here. I thought those words made sense, so I agreed to it.”
A mischievous smile formed on Long Zhuoyan’s lips. She spoke as if this was all Qin Jiu’s ploy, but who could say for sure what the truth was?
Chu Feng had heard about Long Zhuoyan’s reputation as a demoness despite descending from the Dragon Clan’s main lineage. It would be truly naive of him to think of her as an innocent lady who was merely misled by Qin Jiu.
“Chu Feng, the Dharma Emperor sounds pitiful,” Eggy remarked.
