Chapter 1677 - 1622-1623 The Vast Starry Sky, Zi Wei is Honored_2
The acts of the strong have their own styles; if it were another strong person, they would not worry, but for the Jade Emperor and the Great Emperor Ziwei as Imperial Honors, if the opponent acted this way it wouldn’t be a bit surprising, but rather it would seem all too ordinary.
The path of an emperor, after all, is to never be content being subordinate to others, but even to seize all leadership, to command heaven and earth and stand above others.
The Jade Emperor was supported by the Longevity Taoist Monarch to ascend to this position, but wasn’t the ultimate distancing from the Shenxiao Lineage rooted in the conflict of primary and secondary roles and the clash of interests?
In the eyes of the strong ones from Shenxiao Sect, we supported your rise, not asking you to submit but to treat us as equals, which you couldn’t even do. Isn’t this a sign of wild ambition?
In the eyes of the Jade Emperor, practicing the Emperor’s Path and commanding All Heavens with everyone submitting seemed the expected thing; your actions are but hindrances to my cultivation!
For such a Jade Emperor, these Newly Ascended Dao Lords are also exploiting his ambition to ally with him, but this can only occur under situations where the Jade Emperor poses no threat.
If the Jade Emperor’s power were too great, they would not take such risks; after all, if they overthrew the veteran Dao Lords and allowed the Jade Emperor to benefit most in gaining authority and truly commanding All Heavens, wouldn’t that be like making trouble for themselves?
From the standpoint of many Newly Ascended Dao Lords, before overthrowing the veteran Dao Lords, we were not at the peak; after overthrowing them, without the veteran Dao Lords but adding a Jade Emperor, then all efforts would be useless.
But from the perspective of the Jade Emperor, without having done this act, I, as the Emperor of Heaven, cannot command All Heavens everywhere I am hindered, and now having done this act, overthrowing these people, I still cannot truly command All Heavens; isn’t this also in vain?
Thus, this so-called alliance was loose from the start, fundamentally conflicted, and these interest disputes cannot be remedied; inevitably, there will come a day when they fall out and go their separate ways.
