Tide calmly remarked, "What is a three-thousand-year-old if not a child? If one chooses to live, then that is life; the past has long since scattered like clouds."
Su Ye gazed at the manifestation of Mu Zhuang Wang Er Zhu and sighed, "Even in the Imperial Realm, life has its limits. Before us, the senior transcended and reincarnated. I wonder if this life will allow us to explore the path to the Imperial Realm."
Tide fixed his gaze on Li Shang and bluntly suggested, "Why don't we join forces to capture Li Shang and force him to speak?"
Li Shang scoffed, filled with disdain.
This attitude left the three feeling quite displeased, as they were openly discussing matters in front of him.
Ji Wei stated, "Although Ben Jun has just entered the Imperial Realm, early preparation is essential. I am willing to cooperate with Tide Emperor, but right now it’s just a body; Li Shang Di Jun can disperse at any moment."
Su Ye pondered, "If we were to launch a strong attack on Wujie, it might not yield results. Wujie is part of the Chaos Realm and is currently in an unstable state. If it self-destructs, we would also be caught in the fallout."
Tide raised an eyebrow. "In the past, Li Shang acted alone without any weaknesses. But isn’t that no longer the case?"
The three pairs of eyes focused on Li Shang's embrace of Yun Zhi Yue, causing Li Shang's deep-set eyes to turn cold instantly.
"Feel free to capture Ben Jun," he warned. "But if you harm her, no matter where you hide, my sword will find you."
The trio exchanged glances at the seemingly ordinary Wuyue Killing Sword before silently shifting their focus to the illusion above them, as if the previous topic had never been mentioned.
Strangely enough, even before Yun Zhi Yue's illusion had fully formed, someone had already activated another one.
Han She Shao Zu Zhang's illusion was rather intriguing; it was a reflection of herself. She remained Han She Shao Zu Zhang while her clan had been annihilated by the dragon race. The entire Han She Clan had perished, leaving her as the sole survivor who remembered her blood feud and crazily trained for revenge.
This illusion revealed how severely the Han She Clan had been oppressed by the dragon race. Han Xi, this Shaozongzhang Xin Mo, participated alongside another Han She Qiu Yu. The illusion also depicted the Cold Serpent Clan Annihilation; Han Xi died before her eyes, suggesting a deep bond between them.
As for Yun Shijiu's illusion, it presented a more challenging spectacle.
In a muddy pit surged countless Huang Eels that bit and devoured each other. The long creatures twisted and writhed together, creating a truly uncomfortable sight.
Among viewers who were all Emperors, no one showed any unusual reaction to this small scene; they had seen far worse.
One particularly large yellow Huang Eel was the most ferocious in its consumption. As time passed, this Huang Eel grew larger until it transformed into a small boy with a sunburned face.
The boy was covered in mud as he crawled out of the Huang Eel pool and sat at its edge, swinging his little feet while talking to himself: "Having swallowed thousands, I shall be called Shijiu."
After speaking, he stood up and walked toward the distance with an expression of yearning on his otherwise dirty face.
Unfortunately,
Thunder rumbled in the sky as Black Chains appeared, piercing through the boy's limbs and forcibly contorting his tiny body into submission.
Afterward, he was left to guard a scenic spot, continuously killing tourists. If he disobeyed, the Black Chains would appear time and again, piercing through his frail, small body. After an unknown number of times, the Black Chains ceased to appear.
The little boy had learned to make murder a part of his daily routine, unperturbed as the days passed by.
