Chapter 620: Chapter 570: They are Not a Unity

For many people, they highly admire the Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, Zhu Houji.

In many people’s eyes, Zhu Houji, the Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, can be considered the luckiest person in the world, with an unprecedented amount of fortune.

From initially being a vassal king, by twist of fate he was selected as the emperor of the Great Ming empire after the death of Emperor Wuzong.

Although much of his power was absorbed by Pei Xuanjing’s Taoist School, his position remained extraordinarily exalted, a place that countless people look up to but can never reach.

And with pros come cons, although some power was shared with the Taoist School, he also received the wholehearted support from the School, laying the foundation for the later Divine Dynasty Plan driven single-handedly by the School.

All in all, many people perceive Zhu Houji as being extremely lucky.

But only when one truly sits in this position can they understand how great the responsibilities and burdens it comes with are.

Indeed, he now enjoys many benefits that others can only dream of, but at the same time, he also bears many responsibilities that many people cannot bear.

Therefore, even though he has now reached the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm and possesses great power, Zhu Houji still does not dare to slacken in the slightest. His heart is full of immense pressure, as if he could collapse at any moment.

He clearly understands that the current him may seem powerful, but all that power is based on the existence of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. He is now completely tied to the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, and if the divine Dynasty falls, he, as the monarch of the divine Dynasty, will also surely perish with it.

“The existence of a divine Dynasty is naturally feared by many sides. The news of the existence of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty must have already reached the ears of many forces within the Sky Wasteland by now,” Wu Shijiu sighed.

Before the ascension of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, he had discussed with Pei Xuanjing about the fact that in the many thousands of years, the divine Dynasty, which various forces taboo, has been a great deterrent. They were very wary of a divine Dynasty that would suppress the world with unparalleled power, and once again return to the situation where the divine Dynasty dominated Heaven and Earth and suppressed the eight directions.

Therefore, even if all sides know that the divine Dynasty may involve the possibility of Becoming Immortal, due to mutual restraint, no divine Dynasty has been born in the Sky Wasteland in thousands of years. The ancient Kingdom Dynasties dared not take the risk of ascension.

Pei Xuanjing and the Great Ming Empire, however, chose an excellent moment. They initiated the promotion of the Great Ming Empire to ascend to a divine Dynasty just as Heaven and Earth began to rejuvenate, avoiding the obstruction of those forces.

But with pros comes cons. The promotion of the divine Dynasty is difficult, but it also represents the most powerful symbol of the empire. Although the Great Ming Divine Dynasty ascended successfully, they had not yet displayed their strength in the world. This time, waiting for the return of many forces, they will undoubtedly make a corresponding response.

Whether they can pass this test is extremely crucial. If they succeed, other forces will have to hold their noses and admit it. But if they fail, I’m afraid everything of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty will be plundered, and all the preparations will be for the benefit of others.

“Are the many forces of the Sky Wasteland a monolith?” Pei Xuanjing, not at all concerned about Wu Shijiu’s reaction, asked with a smile.

Indeed, there are countless factions among the many forces of the Sky Wasteland. These people have been fighting with each other because of their own interests. Even if a Great Ming Divine Dynasty appears, can these forces let go of their original estrangements and come together?

No, the hatred between these forces is almost at the level of mortal enemies. Even the great righteousness between the races finds it difficult to make them let go of their inherent conflict, let alone the appearance of a divine Dynasty, especially the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, which is not very strong.

“…”

Wu Shijiu remained silent. Although these words were sharp, he had to accept that what Pei Xuanjing said was true.

The forces of the Sky Wasteland have been at the top for too long, and they may have forgotten the past when they were ruled and suppressed by the divine dynasty.

Thus, when seeing a divine Dynasty that has the highest level of the Spiritual Realm, even though they will feel wary about the nature of this divine Dynasty, they will not really treat it as a major opponent.

And these forces have never been united. Some forces are very wary of the divine Dynasty and do not want to see its emergence, while other forces are not so. Their initial consent was just due to circumstances.

After all, the divine Dynasty could be associated with the possibility of Becoming Immortal, and since it has appeared, there will naturally be some forces willing to step forward. They will make different choices.

In such a situation, if the Great Ming Divine Dynasty can show enough strength to show those people the possibility of their mutually assured destruction, then it can seize the opportunity to get through this crisis.

“So, are we going to share some of the benefits?” Said Zhu Houji, a gleam in his eyes.

As the Emperor, he naturally has his own judgement and immediately understood where Pei Xuanjing’s confidence came from.

Since the existence of this divine dynasty represents an opportunity for many forces, as long as after he shows enough power, he makes a slight concession, it will undoubtedly bring extraordinary gains.

Other people might think that the concession appears some kind of failure, some loss of face. But for Zhu Houji, the most crucial issue in the current situation is to be able to remain vital amidst the wolves and a roaring world.

As long as he and the Great Ming Divine Dynasty can drag on, with the strengthening of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, everything lost now can be regained in the future. It’s just a temporary abandonment!

“Your highness has thought this through, it seems that I played the role of villain in vain,” Pei Xuanjing said indifferently.

He had already come to a conclusion about this in his heart, only wondering if Zhu Houji could understand it.

Pei Xuanjing was never a greedy person. He preferred to enlarge the cake, allowing everyone to participate, which was the best outcome, bringing the maximum benefit.

So for the arrival of the many forces in the Sky Wasteland, Pei Xuanjing is not worried, he knows that unless these people are truly united, it means that he can push forward with his plans.

However, seeing Emperor Zhu Houji always urging him, he only then remembered that this also required the cooperation of the other party.

And Zhu Houji, who has been the emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty for so many years, with divine mandate and golden words, whose orders are obeyed by the whole world, would he be willing to tolerate and retreat? This was something Pei Xuanjing couldn’t be sure of.

Therefore, he invited the two to come for the purpose of advising Zhu Houji.

Unexpectedly, the other party thought so profoundly that he didn’t need to persuade him at all and directly agreed to his proposal, which surprised Pei Xuanjing.

“In Master Pei’s eyes, am I such a person who can’t distinguish between priorities?” Zhu Houji retorted.
