Chapter 207: Dragon Emperor's Ascension
"You! When I ascended to the throne a thousand years ago, you were just a little brat still sucking on your mother's milk," the Dragon Emperor mocked, but deep down he wondered, did I really make a mistake?
"Alright, Dragon Emperor, stop relying on mere words. In six years, we will see who is stronger," Yang Chen said calmly.
"Dragon Emperor, after living for a thousand years and stepping into the Demigod Realm, you still keep losing to me, the Celestial Emperor. Do you still have the face to boast?" Yao Tianshang shouted.
"You little worm, shut your mouth!" the Dragon Emperor cursed.
"Dragon Emperor, shut your mouth for this emperor!" the Demon Emperor angrily retorted. Calling Yao Tianshang a little worm also meant insulting himself.
"Enough, Dragon Emperor. I don't want to stir up too much trouble today. Why are you here instead of going to the Outer Rim of the Divine Ruins?" Yang Chen asked in confusion.
"The entrance to the Outer Rim of the Divine Ruins is located at some corner of the Transverse Mountain Range," the Dragon Emperor explained. "I just took a detour to take a look."
"A detour? You flew over with two billion Soldiers from the Heavenly Chasm Mountain Range just for a detour?" Yang Chen coldly mocked due to the earlier insult from the Dragon Emperor towards Yao Tianshang.
"Tian Shang, do not be rude," Yang Chen admonished. "Since Dragon Brother has come here on a detour, please return along your original path or stay for a while. I can prepare some fine wine for us to enjoy together. What do you say?"
The Dragon Emperor understood that once Yang Chen called him "Dragon Brother," it was a sign of respect and an indirect way of asking him to leave. If he didn't appreciate it, it would be awkward for both sides.
The Dragon Emperor was not someone who lacked understanding; he clasped his hands and said, "Brother Yang's fine wine can be saved for next time. I still need to prepare for the entrance to the Outer Rim of the Divine Ruins to prevent any uninvited pests from intruding."
"Well then, Dragon Brother, it's best you go prepare," Yang Chen smiled and said. "If you need help, I can lend a hand."
"That won't be necessary, Brother Yang," the Dragon Emperor replied before leaping away.
"Draft an Imperial Edict for me," Yang Chen instructed.
"Yes, Celestial Emperor," Flame Emperor Yan Zhiming respectfully replied as he took out a piece of golden silk.
"Bestow the title of Demon Emperor of the Wilderness upon the Demon Emperor, directly commanded by me!" Yang Chen shouted.
Immediately, Yan Zhiming also paused his writing, kneeling on one knee, holding the Imperial Edict above his head, respectfully waiting for Yang Chen to seal it.
Yang Chen took out the Shadow Kill Imperial Seal and stamped it on the edict. Subsequently, a surge of golden fortune energy flowed from the Celestial Ranking and infused into it.
Yang Chen put away the Shadow Kill Imperial Seal, picked up the Imperial Edict, walked in front of the Demon Emperor, and said, "Within three years, if the Dragon Emperor invades, under extreme circumstances, you may accept this Imperial Edict. Then, you shall be recognized as a person of Shadow Kill, belonging to the Dragon Sky Immortal Kingdom, and no harm shall come to your descendants."
"Thank you, Emperor of Shadows," the Demon Emperor said respectfully and gratefully. Yang Chen's actions clearly demonstrated that he was a true gentleman. Even if they could not be sovereign and subject in the future, they could still be friends.
"No need for such formality; I merely wish to add a bit of fairness to the wager three years from now," Yang Chen casually replied.
"Then I shall return to Demon Emperor City. If the Best Actor is interested, why not accompany me? It would be my pleasure to host you," the Demon Emperor sincerely suggested.
"No, there are matters within the Celestial Kingdom that require my attention," Yang Chen declined.
"Then I will not insist further. Farewell," the Demon Emperor said with a cupped fist salute and left with the High Elder and Second Elder.
"This person is quite remarkable," Yang Chen commented as he watched the three figures of the Demon Emperor disappear into the distance.
"Withdraw the troops!" Yang Chen commanded.
"Yes, Celestial Emperor!" One Hundred Billion Soldiers came in a grand manner and left just as grandly. They left behind millions of corpses but gained promotions for the Shadow Kill Imperial Flag to become a Heavenly Artifact and for Demon’s Kiss and Angel’s Sigh to upgrade to low-grade Heavenly Artifacts.
Heavenly Chasm Mountain Range
"Celestial Emperor, Shadowkill Celestial Kingdom has withdrawn their troops," Haijiao reported respectfully.
"Eh? Where did Grand Emperor go?" Long Po Tian inquired.
"Grand Emperor has gone out towards the direction of Transverse Mountain Range," Haijiao replied respectfully.
"Damn it, if he keeps messing around, Wilderness will fall into Yang Chen's hands!!" Long Po Tian cursed angrily.
Little did he know that the Dragon Emperor was just outside the tent, but as a mere Demigod Realm, Long Po Tian couldn't detect him.
"Celestial Emperor, Grand Emperor is also for the sake of the Celestial Kingdom, please don't blame him too much," Hai Jiao pleaded.
"Ha!" Long Po Tian let out a deep sigh and said helplessly, "I'm afraid his foundation will ultimately be destroyed by him."
Upon hearing the last sentence, the Dragon Emperor vanished into thin air, and no one knew where he went.
At the Heavenly Chasm Mountain Range, on an unknown peak, the Dragon Emperor stood against the wind, his gray-white hair fluttering in the breeze.
"My foundation that I established, will it be destroyed by my own hands a thousand years later?" Dragon Emperor murmured to himself.
"Will it?" "It might." "So what if it gets destroyed?" "Why would it be like this?"
Thus, the Dragon Emperor stood on that peak, facing the wind.
Half a month later
After half a month, the Dragon Emperor seemed to suddenly realize: "Since I don't have the ability to expand Longxiao, then I should protect it well and hand it over to Break the Sky."
At that moment, the Dragon Emperor finally understood, but the price was half of his silver hair, turning completely silver.
"Yang Chen, you have done your best; I will remember your kindness," said the Dragon Emperor, leaping away and returning to the Heavenly Chasm Mountain Range.
"It's been half a month; tell me where Grand Emperor has gone!!" Before entering the camp, the Dragon Emperor heard Long Po Tian's reprimanding voice.
Interrupting a soldier who was about to salute, he strode forward and shouted loudly: "Break the Sky, I am here."
"Grand Emperor? You have returned," Long Po Tian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Refer to Grand Emperor," said Haijiao respectfully.
"No need for formalities," Dragon Emperor replied with a smile.
Haijiao stood up straight, feeling that Dragon Emperor had changed in more ways than just his hair. It was also a change in attitude.
"Grand Emperor, the Relic is about to be activated. Where have you been?" Long Po Tian asked.
"Break the Sky, from now on, just call me Grandfather. Your two ancestors, Chumo will be called Uncle Mo, and Tianxing will be called Uncle Tian, understood?" Dragon Emperor said with a smile.
"Yes, Grandfather," Long Po Tian immediately understood; Dragon Emperor was delegating power while consolidating his own authority—monarchical absolutism!
"Yes, Grandfather," Long Po Tian said respectfully.
"Break the Sky, Grandfather will now go to arrange matters at the Outer Rim of the Divine Ruins. How does that sound?" Dragon Emperor inquired.
"That sounds excellent. Please lead twenty billion troops there, Grandfather," Long Po Tian replied with a smile.
"Alright, then Grandfather will go muster the troops now," said Dragon Emperor. He then added apologetically, "Break the Sky, in the past, my arrogance caused losses for the Celestial Kingdom, and I made you clean up after me. So here, I ask for your forgiveness."
"Grandfather, you are being too serious. Without you, there would be no Break the Sky. Please don't think too much about it," Long Po Tian said sincerely. At that moment, he truly let go of his grievances against Dragon Emperor.
"In that case, I will take my leave first," said Dragon Emperor, using the term "take my leave" to emphasize his regard for Long Po Tian. For the sake of the Celestial Kingdom, it was not easy for Dragon Emperor to take this step.
