Chapter 412: Requesting a God!
After Chen Ke Xuan finished recounting the events between him and Chen Sisi's mother, the killing intent on Chen Sisi's body vanished, returning to calm.
However, Li Xiang could feel that her heart was still not calm.
"Chen Sisi." Li Xiang extended his hand.
Chen Sisi looked at Li Xiang's hand and shook her head, "I'm fine."
Chen Ke Xuan said again, "Through what I just said, you should understand.
No matter how you choose, one side must make a sacrifice.
And there is only one way for both sides to remain peacefully in their respective camps."
"What way?"
"Getting the approval of a God."
"As long as a God sends down an oracle, there's no need to forcibly switch camps during the Descent War; you can continue to stay in your own camp."
"Then... won't we still have to fight?"
Chen Ke Xuan shook his head, "Of course you have to fight. The greater the ability, the more you have to give in the Descent War.
For example, I... might not survive this Descent War at all.
This is the reason for the internal struggle among the princes that you've seen.
They are all very talented. I must choose the person most suitable to lead this country before the Descent War begins, and then... I can die in peace."
Li Xiang looked at him, "As the Emperor, you won't die."
"Thank you for your words. You know nothing about the Descent War... alas..."
After speaking, Chen Ke Xuan continued, "If you can keep your own camp, then as long as you contribute your own strength, not meeting on the battlefield is completely fine.
Moreover... as the invaded party, you have absolute autonomy. That is to say, if you want to protect us, you can do it.
But we must kill you; we have no autonomy.
However, if someone switches from our camp to your camp, they must become our enemy.
Saying it this way... do you understand what I mean?"
Li Xiang's eyes lit up.
"I understand... That is to say, if we both keep our original camps, once the war starts, if I capture Chen Sisi and imprison her, she won't be considered to have violated the will of the Source of the Universe, and I will be able to protect her!"
Chen Ke Xuan's eyes held a smile, "As expected of my son-in-law, his head is sharp."
Chen Sisi glanced at him but didn't say much.
"Therefore, what I just said about having a God issue an oral decree is extremely important. As long as a God issues an oral decree, you won't be required to switch camps when the Descent War breaks out."
Although it sounds simple.
But to have a God issue an oral decree...
Li Xiang only felt his head ache.
But... since Chen Ke Xuan said so, there must be a way.
"Emperor, what should I do?"
"In the Dragon Flame Empire, there is a hidden place known only to successive Emperors. There is a powerful being there. As long as you defeat it, you can get one chance to request a God."
A chance to request a God?!
Li Xiang was shocked.
Is this a wishing God?
Chen Ke Xuan continued, "Except for the request to replace a God, almost all other requests can be fulfilled.
Strength unmatched below a God, eternal life, endless wealth... anything is possible."
Eternal life...
Even eternal life is possible...
"Do you want to challenge it?"
"Yes! Please, Emperor, point the way."
Chen Ke Xuan nodded, then directly raised his hand, and a spatial magic array appeared.
Li Xiang was startled.
"Go in. You can reach there directly from here. After you kill the powerful being inside, you can teleport back at any time.
Of course, if you are killed, your body will also be teleported back."
Chen Sisi stepped onto the magic array, "I'll go alone."
Li Xiang walked onto the magic array, "Chen Sisi, I'll go by myself. Your strength hasn't fully recovered yet."
Chen Sisi shook her head, "Either we go together, or neither of us goes."
Li Xiang felt helpless and looked at Chen Ke Xuan.
Chen Ke Xuan looked at the magic array, "This magic array can only teleport one person."
Chen Sisi glared at Chen Ke Xuan, "What kind of trash array is this? Give me the array disc, I'll set it up."
Chen Ke Xuan let out a wry smile, "My daughter... your spatial talent comes from me. You should understand, only one person can be teleported, it's not a restriction I made... but the destination can only accommodate one person."
Chen Sisi squatted down, gently stroked the magic array with her palm, felt it for a moment, then pushed Li Xiang away, "I'll go."
Li Xiang felt helpless, walked back onto the magic array, "Chen Sisi, the Emperor's words are very clear. The space there is sealed. Your most proficient combat methods won't work there; you won't be able to unleash your strongest power."
Chen Sisi frowned, "Then I still want to go."
"Chen Sisi." Li Xiang held her hand, "Wait for me to come back, okay?"
Chen Sisi bit her lip, "I don't want to!"
Li Xiang turned his head to look at Chen Ke Xuan, "Emperor, I'll trouble you."
"You kid..."
Chen Ke Xuan nodded and raised a hand.
"Don't!" Chen Sisi's figure was directly teleported outside the imperial palace.
Li Xiang smiled and waved at Chen Ke Xuan, "Emperor, I'm leaving."
"Kid, you must come back alive. I'm still waiting for you to call me Father-in-law!"
"I will!"
Li Xiang's figure disappeared in the light of the teleportation array.
A spatial vortex appeared in the bedchamber, and Chen Sisi walked out from it. Seeing that Li Xiang was not there, she looked at Chen Ke Xuan with hostile eyes.
Chen Ke Xuan looked at his daughter, "Chen Sisi... do you know what a man hates to see the most?"
Chen Sisi didn't speak, just stared at him intently.
"Not wanting to see his woman fall in front of him..."
After speaking, Chen Ke Xuan waved his hand, "He will be teleported back in at most three days. Stay in the imperial palace for these three days."
A spatial vortex appeared, and Chen Sisi walked directly into it, disappearing.
"This child..." Chen Ke Xuan's face was full of helplessness.
Outside the door, sensing the movement, Chen Yixue and Wang Yuanyuan walked in. Seeing that Li Xiang and Chen Sisi were gone, they both looked at Chen Ke Xuan.
Chen Ke Xuan looked at his younger daughter, "Your sister left angrily. Go and comfort her."
Chen Yixue turned her head and ran out. Wang Yuanyuan prepared to follow.
"Old Wang, have a couple of drinks with me."
Wang Yuanyuan stopped, "You sent that kid to the Dragon Vein Land?"
Chen Ke Xuan nodded.
"That Evil Dragon entrenched in the Dragon Vein, even you are no match for it. Sending that kid there, isn't that sending him to his death?"
"That is the only way to resolve the emotional lock."
"How can you be sure that killing that Evil Dragon will allow you to see a God?"
"I can't be sure, but after killing the Evil Dragon, that kid's physique will undergo a huge change, reaching the Demigod realm.
A Demigod... can already influence the Descent War."
"What do you want to do?"
"Source of the Universe... I want it to lose, to pay the price for killing A Zi!"
Wang Yuanyuan was silent, took out two jars of wine, "Drink. Three days will pass quickly."
"Mm... I hope that kid can kill the Evil Dragon."
