Chapter 1031: Chapter 832: Why Not Rob

"What constitutes a great calamity?"

Li Xuan smiled slightly, his face full of curiosity as he greeted the Changsheng Emperor of the South with a fist: "I am willing to hear the details?"

The Changsheng Emperor of the South’s gaze was icy as he looked at Lv Qiluo, who was in the process of refining and mastering the Nine Heavens’ Seven Orificial Thunder Body.

"I know what she wants to do; she merely wants to help you become the fourth Heaven Emperor and then, just like Haotian, fight against the Saints. But such actions will only bring cataclysmic destruction to the mortal realm."

Li Xuan, thoughtful, asked, "I have heard that several Saints are awakening, and when they do, everything will ’return to the origin, renewing all things under heaven.’ And Buddhism speaks of a cycle of ’formation, dwelling, destruction, and emptiness.’ So, if I’m not mistaken, this ’return to the origin’ implies starting everything anew, right?"

Since this ’return to the origin’ is indeed a cataclysm, the collapse of the world is inevitable. Then, how can their actions be called boundlessly evil?

"Indeed, that is so," the Changsheng Emperor of the South snorted coldly. "But the time for this return to the origin won’t come for another thousand years. Your actions and those of Lv Qiluo are only accelerating their awakening.

The Saints will not sit by while another ’Haotian,’ another ’First Emperor,’ arises in this world. Once they awaken, there will be another Divine Heavenly war. Haotian and the First Emperor joined forces to attack the Saints and destroyed the thirty-three heavens. Now do you also intend to destroy the mortals of this mortal realm as well?"

From a distance, the Gouchen Emperor, after hearing this, could not help but snort in derision and said disdainfully: "So, Wen Zhong, you’d rather be a dog for the Saints? By the time a thousand years pass and the Saints recover from their injuries, it will be too late."

The Changsheng Emperor of the South’s face turned crimson as he coldly watched him: "Speaking of which, your brother is also scheming for the throne of Heaven Emperor! But with his capabilities, methods, and temperament, he is suitable enough as a deputy; dreaming of becoming Heaven Emperor and competing against the Saints is sheer folly. I advise you to abandon this notion early. If he dares to falsely claim the title of Heaven Emperor, I must strike him down!"

The Gouchen Emperor slightly raised his chin: "Whether my brother is capable or not isn’t for you, Wen Zhong, to judge. At least in the realms of Taixu, only my brother has such courage and responsibility.

Unlike you, groveling and kowtowing before those Saints like swine and dogs. Are you just waiting for the period of ’return to the origin’ so that the Saints might show mercy and grant you a place in this world?"

Li Xuan listened with great interest on the side, but regrettably, though both men looked heated, they did not start arguing as he had hoped.

After a few more exchanges, they glanced sideways at Li Xuan and then shut their mouths.

Li Xuan could only speak up again and inquired, "Changsheng Emperor speaks with considerable concern for the people of the world, but do you not know that if the First Emperor’s Seal is destroyed, demons and calamities will inevitably rampant in the mortal realm?"

The Changsheng Emperor of the South responded coldly, "Though the First Emperor’s Seal has indeed protected the mortals, it also limits us. I want to break the Seal first, to seek an opportunity for Transcendence and sanctification, and second, because of this change in the world. Once everything is settled, I, Wen Zhong, will naturally find a way to repair the Seal and restore peace to the mortals."

"I see."

Li Xuan did not know the truth of her words, and could only tentatively believe her.

In fact, what she really thought wasn’t important anyway.

He then placed a piece of talisman paper in front of the Changsheng Emperor of the South.

The Emperor’s eyes flashed with suspicion at that moment.

Li Xuan said smilingly, "I ask the Emperor to write a letter to your original self. Li wants to obtain five strands of Qi of Hunyuan and five elements from her hands using this strand of True Spirit. The Emperor has been in charge of the Lei Department in the three previous Heavenly Courts and then controlled Guangzeng Heaven of the South for ten thousand years; you surely must not lack this stuff, right?"

"Five strands of Qi of Hunyuan and five elements?" The Changsheng Emperor of the South’s face momentarily showed a blue tone, and anger appeared in her eyes: "Li Xuan, are you trying to rob me?"

Does this guy even know what Qi of Hunyuan and five elements is? This is enough to nurture an innate divine treasure!

Li Xuan just stroked his chin: "Your words, Emperor, make me wonder, am I not robbing you right now? If you can’t provide it, then I’ll just have to apologize to you and make other arrangements."

The Changsheng Emperor of the South was suddenly left breathless, speechless.

The Gouchen Emperor laughed loudly, adding insult to injury: "You might as well hand her True Spirit over to me; I guarantee that within a year, I will deliver the five strands of Qi of Hunyuan and five elements."

The Changsheng Emperor of the South’s eyes narrowed slightly, looking sideways at Gouchen: "Before I descended to the mortal realm, I heard that you and your brother were scouring around gathering innate treasures to create postnatal divine treasures like the Yin and Yang twin swords. Is this your ransom, Gouchen?

Your brothers have already become so impoverished, unable to even fund an expedition against Zhenwu, let alone trade for my True Spirit. Speaking of which, I could also produce these Yin and Yang twin swords, and their quality would surely be even superior."

Gouchen’s face darkened slightly, and he turned his head, no longer deigning to deal with the South.

The Changsheng Emperor of the South did not pursue the matter further; after all, as the saying goes, ’A fellow sufferer should not be laughed at by another.’

She promptly picked up the talisman paper and began to write swiftly using Thunderbolt as ink.

In her heart, she truly did not want to be extorted by Li Xuan.

But the problem was that she was indeed being squeezed by this man at the moment.

With the imminent changes in the world, the Changsheng Emperor of the South really did not wish to lose thirty percent of her power at such a time.
