"Yes." Bernice nodded slightly, looked up at the two of them, and said slowly, "His Majesty intends to make me his successor."

"What?!" The one who reacted so violently was Warren.

Although Ellis III did not shout out like Warren, he also had an expression of disbelief.

Successor.

These three words have much more than a simple meaning, especially when spoken by Your Majesty.

After receiving a positive response from Bernice's expression, Ellis III couldn't help but ask:

"Why is Your Majesty considering the successor now?"

That’s right, what really shocked them was not the fact that Bernice was chosen, but the fact that His Majesty would consider a successor.

Although Shen Yi's real age is unknown, there has never been any aura of decline about him.

Not to mention, with the coming of the golden age of cultivation, the lifespan of the seventh level will definitely be much longer than that of the sixth level.

The era of emperors has just arrived.

"I can't say that now." Bernice shook her head, and then said very seriously, "In short, this mission has now fallen on me, and I cannot let Your Majesty down no matter what. No, not only that, I have a reason that I cannot retreat, and I have the will of the entire world!"

In fact, when Bernice came to the powerful world that belonged to His Majesty, she learned about the existence of the Pan-Human Guardian Association, the existence of countless multi-dimensional universes, and the many civilizations that had stubbornly emerged from doomsday.

Her perspective has completely changed.

Just as she said herself.

Becoming the new human king, protecting her own homeland, and nurturing her own civilization has become her own mission, not just the expectation of His Majesty.

This time, both Ellis III and Warren fell into a long silence.

Especially Warren.

He stared at Bernice, feeling her determination.

He also had to admit that the battlefield princess at this moment was completely different from the one he knew, and she showed a more glorious posture.

At the very least, if His Majesty chose him, he might not have the willpower to bear it all, and he might even be unable to withstand the enormous pressure.

The previous jealousy, caution and resistance all seemed to be changing silently.

"I understand." Ellis III said after a long silence, "If this is your majesty's will, I will do my best to help you, but not because of your ability, but because this is your majesty's choice."

"Of course I know it very well." Bernice smiled. "It was your majesty who created such a great feat, and I am only the second generation. Therefore, your majesty's recognition is the greatest confidence for me to gain recognition from others."

Bernice had always understood.

In order to suppress the jealousy and resistance, His Majesty's approval is both a poison and an indispensable antidote.

So she didn't hide it and said it directly.

"But, it's really amazing." Ellis III suddenly sighed, "So you are not regarded as a concubine by His Majesty, but as a daughter? As expected of Her Royal Highness the Princess, if I had known earlier, I would have been governing the country as a 'prince'."

Compared to Ellis III, who seemed to be unaffected by the unknown evil god from the beginning, Warren's attitude is actually more important.

Because it can already be used as verification.

Verify whether her "straight ball" method is effective.

Warren did not notice Bernice's gaze. He said solemnly, "I only believe in Your Majesty. If you regard it as the choice of the successor to the empire, I am an absolute 'emperor'. So, as long as Your Majesty still chooses you, I will absolutely obey!"

"I understand." Bernice finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then there was a bit of joy.

But, Your Majesty is really amazing.

Reputation alone is enough to completely suppress the pollution of the evil god.

If the object of resistance is His Majesty, I'm afraid it won't have any effect from the beginning.

Just thinking about His Majesty's true identity, Bernice felt it was natural. It was not until this time that she began to realize that she had already unknowingly developed a sincere yearning and admiration for the figure who stood in the forefront of all human beings and guarded the human principles.

Sure enough, she was still very envious of Senior Dingxiang.

"Anyway, I have to solve the problem of rumors first." Bernice suppressed her emotions and threw herself into the next task with full energy. "There is obvious malice behind this rumor. Since I have been chosen as the successor, I must have the reputation that a successor should have. I must turn around those people's jealousy, resistance, and even hatred."

Bernice already had a direction.

Warren is actually right.

This is just like the real selection of a king. She needs to win over those who can be won over and get rid of those who cannot be won over. Even though there are factors of evil gods behind this malice, so far, she is the only one who is qualified to be the successor. So if this problem cannot be solved, she will have violated His Majesty's expectations.

However, Bernice didn't know this.

Shen Yi had seen the ending from the very beginning.

"It looks like it can be done well." He withdrew his gaze from Bernice and continued to look at the Black Sea.

"This is not too difficult for her. After all, you have reminded her like that." Dingxiang was a little helpless.

What Shen Yi once said, "I'm behind you", has actually reduced the difficulty.

If someone doesn't even recognize Shen Yi's will, there is no need for the evil gods to do anything. When the evil gods descend collectively, they will inevitably be contaminated.

"It's not really a reminder. Originally, I was the strongest backer behind all the special saviors." Shen Yi smiled and shook his head. "That evil god should have seen the end. To be honest, I was also surprised at first. There are such guys among the evil gods."

What Shen Yi knew was an evil god that was clearly different from other evil gods in the eyes of humans.

It has a human-like shape.

That's right, judging from the appearance alone, it is a physical evil god, whose body is larger than an ordinary planet, but it does not shine with a black aura. On the contrary, most of the "color" on its body is white, mixed with silver and gold.
