Chapter 2198: His Highness the Saint, Wang Shouzhe (Part 2)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"Time, external enemies, setbacks, insufficient resources, and even several major internal conflicts and hundreds of minor uprisings." The Immortal Emperor sighed with a sense of regret, "Wandering for fifty to sixty thousand years, even True Immortals have died through eight or nine generations, ordinary people even more so have proliferated countless times... For us to have survived under such circumstances and successfully returned is already a great achievement."

Wang Shouzhe remained silent.

With just a few words, the Immortal Emperor sketched out a grand and tumultuous history of a long escape. The hardships within, he could only barely imagine, perhaps seeing not even a fraction.

The Immortal Emperor was right; to have survived and successfully returned, and even developed the Immortal Dynasty to its current state, was already somewhat of a miracle.

"If we hadn’t encountered the clan of external demons." Ling Xuan Immortal Supreme’s projection also said with some indignation, "Our Divine Martial World, given its development, certainly wouldn’t be inferior to the Sacred Domain. Now suddenly entangling with the Sacred Domain again, it’s one wave unsettled before another arises."

Having fought the Demonic Clan for his entire life, his true body still guarding the Demonic World, he naturally had great resentment towards the demonic forces of the Demonic World.

"Is Immortal Supreme worried that the Sacred Domain might be detrimental to us?" Wang Shouzhe asked, "After all, we are of the same origin and lineage, it shouldn’t be possible for an invasion event like that with the Demonic World to occur, right?"

"That’s not necessarily true. For instance, if the Si Wuyou incident is mishandled, it might give that so-called Sacred Si Family leverage and opportunity, they might just consider our Divine Martial World a ripe target to expand their family’s influence." Immortal Supreme’s tone was serious, "They have more than ten True Immortals, a family with a Great Luo Sacred Supreme. If they find a way to invade us, at the very least, they would try to subdue us. By then, our side is..."

Upon saying this, Immortal Supreme couldn’t help but sigh, clearly not optimistic about the prospects.

"I do have a plan." The Immortal Emperor suddenly looked at Wang Shouzhe, sizing him up with a smile, "If you follow this plan, firstly, it could intimidate Si Wuyou into honestly handing over the Space-Shifting Array Disc capable of crossing realms. Secondly, if there’s further contact or entanglement with the Sacred Domain, we could also intimidate those seeking to take advantage, turning passive into active. However... this plan requires you, Shouzhe, to make a slight sacrifice."

"?"

Wang Shouzhe felt suspicious, sensing that this wasn’t a proper plan.

Immortal Supreme also looked stunned, eyes filled with doubt as he looked between the Immortal Emperor and Wang Shouzhe, all the while deep in thought.

Wang Shouzhe hesitated for a moment, but eventually, with a solemn expression, he bowed to the Immortal Emperor: "I am willing to hear the details."

"It’s actually not complicated, with your demeanor and bearing, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to accomplish." The Immortal Emperor looked at Wang Shouzhe and conveyed his idea in detail.

Immortal Supreme’s expression gradually turned peculiar.

Wang Shouzhe’s face also showed a hint of surprise.

This? He, the dignified head of a family, hadn’t done this sort of thing for how long now?

However... thinking of his daughter stranded outside, considering the potential hazards of contacting the Sacred Domain, he deliberated repeatedly and ultimately agreed.

Several days later.

Still below the Immortal Palace, within the prison of the Saint Emperor Peak.

In an isolated cell enclosed by cold metal bars, Si Wuyou lay on a hard, cold bed, tapping the wall absentmindedly.

Under the cool lighting, Si Wuyou’s current state was fully visible.

His clothes had evidently been changed, and his wounds had mostly healed, some smaller ones not even leaving a scar. Apart from the shackles on his body and some grime accumulated from not bathing for a long time, he no longer appeared even a bit disheveled.

Clearly, during his days of imprisonment, he hadn’t been mistreated.

Even though there was no worry about food and drink daily, Si Wuyou still felt restless and irritable.

As an elite direct-line descendant of the Sacred Race, a dignified True Immortal Seed, he had led a smooth life, never encountering major setbacks, let alone being so detained and losing his freedom.

However, though he was stifled, he wasn’t overly concerned about his safety.

This world belonged to a relatively low martial level, and the True Immortal Realm was the pinnacle of strength. How could such a world, at most termed an Immortal Dynasty, dare to casually execute a direct-line True Immortal Seed of a Sacred Race?

That so-called Immortal Supreme, barely a True Immortal Early Stage, dared to claim the title of Supreme Dao Patriarch; meeting his family’s Old Ancestor would likely scare him stiff.

He knew these people all too well, unwilling yet afraid of the Si Family’s formidable power, ultimately having to submit, respectfully releasing him.

Just endure a while longer, and it wouldn’t be long before they’d obey and let him go.

Just as Si Wuyou sneered inwardly.

Suddenly!

The space within the cell rippled.

Si Wuyou was stirred, lifting his gaze to see a young man in a white robe, adorned with a Jade Crown, step out of the spatial ripples, moving with cloud-like ease and an extraordinary grace.

Each of his features might not be perfect individually, but together they created an incomparably fitting harmony. His mannerisms were elegant, as gentle as jade, exuding an indescribable ethereal charm.

Despite the simplicity of his white attire, on him, it exuded an inexpressible nobility.
