Chapter 1019: Chapter 1019: Can I Walk with You?

"You’re an Emperor Candidate, aren’t you?"

Violeta Herrera gazed at Carson Flores with a subtle look in her eyes, "If it were the Human Emperor faced with such a choice, would they be willing to sacrifice themselves?"

Carson Flores calmly replied, "Whether they are willing or not, that’s their concern, but I am not."

"Helping humanity, saving humanity, I can try my best, I can even risk my life, but to hand over my life to another person, to make him succeed, I am unwilling."

"I was never a noble person to begin with, moreover, as you know, I come from the Mortal Realm, the people I care about in this world are only a few, everyone else to me is a stranger. If they die, I would feel sorry, I would sympathize, but I would never feel like it’s my own fault."

Carson Flores paused for a moment, his gaze fell, landing on the pouch he carried: "I know you can hear me, if you feel that I’m not the person you acknowledge, you can withdraw your recognition."

The Emperor Seal made no movement.

Carson Flores continued, "I don’t know if you possess life, what kind of existence you are, but if you chose me, we could be companions who face any hardship together, collaborators working towards a common goal. I don’t consider myself as your master, nor should you see yourself as my controller."

"They say the Human Emperor is the Human Emperor because they are recognized by the Emperor Seal, it chooses them, the Human Emperor dies, the Emperor Seal remains, there will be another Human Emperor, the Emperor Seal is eternal, how many Human Emperors can there be?"

"The will to be free is the most precious, I don’t want to be a Human Emperor controlled by your will. If you do not approve of me, feel free to leave, but if you do approve of me, you can’t give me any trouble in the future!"

Violeta Herrera looked at Carson Flores in shock.

Was he really talking to the Emperor Seal like this?

"The Emperor Seal has approved of you?"

Carson Flores answered, "Previously, in the Eternal Tombfield, I got trapped by that old Demon hag; it was a life or death situation. The Emperor Seal and I established a connection, I was able to control it in battle, I don’t know if that’s considered approval..."

Lilianna Norman’s eyes were filled with shock and complexity.

You were able to control it to fight the Demon Ancestor and even defeat the Demon Ancestor, isn’t that approval?

Carson Flores is the new Human Emperor!

Does Carson Flores want to become the Human Emperor?

Of course, he does!

The Emperor Seal, such a powerful magical treasure, who wouldn’t want it?

To command the world?

Carson Flores had no interest in that!

Cultivators roam the world freely, why bother with so many burdensome affairs?

Which is why Carson Flores, taking advantage of the fact that Lilianna Norman was possessed, aired his views.

If the Emperor Seal accepts, then all is good, if it does not accept, then it can give up its recognition and leave him be.

After all, the Emperor Seal possesses a unique will, even though he could already control it, if it didn’t want to, could he force it?

Better to make things clear now and avoid confusion later.

The Emperor Seal still had no reaction, as if it was saying ’I can’t hear you, do as you please’.

Seeing this, Carson Flores said no more, after all, he had made clear his bottom line, to harp on it might annoy it and what if it did leave for real? That would be a loss.

Carson Flores looked at Lilianna Norman, "What do you plan to do next?"

Lilianna Norman fell silent for a few seconds, finally shaking her head, her gaze somewhat lost.

"If the Demon Ancestor’s Primordial Spirit is dead, naturally I’ll go back to the Demon Race and treat all this as just a dream, when waking up from the dream, I’ll do whatever I need to do."

"If the Demon Race’s Primordial Spirit is not dead, I dare not go back. I bet that even though I wouldn’t want to, for the rest of the Demon Race, sacrificing me for the benefit of the entire Demon Race, they would be very willing to do that."

Carson Flores smiled and said, "Not only that, they would sincerely thank you, thank you for everything you’ve done for the Demon Race, and they would tell you they will surely remember you..."

Lilianna Norman’s lips twitched, "Where are you going?"

Carson Flores casually answered, "If you go straight west from here, you should reach the Central Divine Continent. This place was once the most prosperous state of humanity, destroyed by the war between the Human Race and the Demon Race. I plan to stroll along that way, crossing the Central Divine Continent, then head back to Misrds State."

"Central Divine Continent?"

Lilianna Norman hesitated then said, "I’m weak right now, it will probably take some time to recover, may I travel with you?"

Carson Flores looked surprised, the Holy Maiden of the Demon Race actually wanted to travel with a human cultivator?

Carson Flores hesitated for a moment then said, "Yeah, sure, let’s wander together then. Once we’ve got clear information about the Demon Ancestor and ensure it’s safe, you can go back."

Whether the Demon Ancestor was truly dead, Carson Flores wasn’t sure. If she wasn’t, returning could be walking into a trap for Lilianna Norman.

If she didn’t want to die, then she had to leave the territory of the Demon Race, stay out of sight of the Demon Race, until they confirmed that the Demon Ancestor was utterly deceased.

"Okay, thank you!"

Carson Flores glanced at the fox ears on Lilianna Norman’s head, pointed with his finger and said, "You’ll need to wear a hat to cover them, otherwise your fox form will give away your identity to the discerning eyes..."
