Chen Tianwen is about to embark on a path to godhood, a path that no one has ever walked before!
Therefore, one can imagine how much Bai Ze expected of Chen Tianwen.
Peach Blossom Girl didn't say much. She would silently support whatever Bai Ze chose, and this time was no exception.
"Come for a walk with me."
Bai Ze shook his head, no longer paying attention to Chen Tianwen. This process would probably take a long time, and since Chen Tianwen wouldn't be in any danger here, Bai Ze suggested to Peach Blossom Girl that he wanted to go for a walk.
Although Peach Blossom Girl is naturally quiet, which is closely related to her true form, she will never refuse any of Bai Ze's requests.
Peach Blossom Girl nodded, letting Bai Ze carry her away.
Zhongyu, Zhongyuan City.
Zhongyuan City is undoubtedly the largest city in the Xuanxian Realm. The reason is simple: it is the residence of the Xuanxian Realm Lord, the Qilin Emperor.
The interdimensional war will also be held here.
Bai Ze, accompanied by Peach Blossom Girl, walked through the streets of Zhongyuan City. The prosperity of Zhongyuan City was unparalleled by any other place.
Because any influential force will set up its headquarters here. Even if a family or power cannot move its headquarters here for some reason, it will still set up a branch in Zhongyuan City.
Therefore, Golden Immortals roam the streets of Zhongyuan City in droves, and even Great Luo Golden Immortals are a common sight.
You should know that in other places, a Great Luo Golden Immortal is enough to be the city lord of a city, but here, he can only be a passerby.
Occasionally, one could even see one or two powerful Immortal Lords walking on the street, attracting the attention of a crowd. Immortal Lords held a great position in any part of the Xuanxian Realm, and Zhongyuan City was no exception.
Bai Ze knew that Peach Blossom Girl had a refined personality and didn't like crowds, so he didn't linger on the street. With a sweep of his divine sense, Bai Ze could see the entire Zhongyuan City. After determining the direction, Bai Ze teleported away with Peach Blossom Girl.
At this moment, inside the Lord of the Realm's palace, the Qilin Emperor was pacing alone in the hall when suddenly his divine sense stirred, as if he sensed someone probing him, which made the Qilin Emperor slightly startled.
Although he was only at the early stage of the Immortal Emperor realm, he was a supreme being in the Xuanxian Realm. Apart from the legendary founder of the Holy Cloud Sect, who was also at the Immortal Emperor realm, who else could detect him?
Even if it were the reclusive founder of the Holy Cloud Sect, if he were to investigate me, I would surely be able to detect his presence. Could it be that some peerless master has traveled to my Xuanxian Realm?
Just as the Qilin Emperor was wondering, two figures suddenly appeared in the hall.
The Qilin Emperor looked closely and saw that the newcomers were a man and a woman. The man was imposing and gave people a sense of tranquility and far-reaching vision, while the woman had a face like a peach blossom, but gave people an aura of being untouched by worldly affairs.
What surprised the Qilin Emperor the most was that he couldn't see through the strength of the two people in front of him, which meant that the two people who came were at least at the level of Immortal Emperor!
The newcomers were none other than Bai Ze and Peach Blossom Girl.
At this moment, Bai Ze also looked at the Qilin Emperor. Although the Qilin Emperor was full of surprise, he did not lose his composure. You know, the more you cultivate, the more you cherish your life. If two unfathomable beings suddenly appeared in front of you, and you did not know their purpose, most people would be frightened, right?
However, the Qilin Emperor maintained his composure, displaying an unwavering spirit even in the face of imminent collapse. This composure prompted Bai Ze to nod in approval and say:
"As the leading figure of this generation of Qilin, you are not bad."
The Qilin Emperor felt a strange familiarity with the person before him, but couldn't recall any connection between them. Hearing the person speak in the tone of a senior addressing a junior, the Qilin Emperor frowned. Although he couldn't see through the other person, the Immortal Emperor possessed the arrogance of one, and spoke to Bai Ze:
"Whether I have done a good or bad job is not for you, fellow Daoist, to judge, is it?"
Bai Ze ignored the Qilin Emperor's unfriendly tone, smiled, and said:
"The Qilin clan is known as the supreme among beasts. I suppose Saint Desa spared your Qilin clan out of fear of a counterattack from the entire beast race. But you've had a tough time bearing this infamy for so long!"
Bai Ze's words struck a nerve with the Qilin Emperor.
The Qilin Saint Lord was harmed by Saint Desa. Logically, the Qilin clan should have deeply hated Saint Desa. However, the Qilin Emperor, as the current patriarch of the Qilin clan, chose to accept Saint Desa's conferment and take on the position of Lord of the Xuanxian Realm.
This made many people despise the Qilin Emperor from the bottom of their hearts, and even the younger generation of the Qilin clan felt disgusted by his actions!
But only the Qilin Emperor himself understood that if he led the Qilin clan to fight to the death against Saint Desa, the result would inevitably be the destruction of the Qilin clan.
Most importantly, almost all the beast races revered the Qilin as their master. After the Qilin race was destroyed, the beast races would riot wildly, and when faced with the suppression of Saint Desa, they would not escape the fate of destruction.
Therefore, the Qilin Emperor chose to accept the conditions of Saint Desa and bear the infamy alone.
So many years have passed, and Bai Ze is the first person to speak out about his troubles, which fills the Qilin Emperor with deep emotion.
However, before figuring out Bai Ze's intentions, the Qilin Emperor naturally wouldn't reveal them, and responded to Bai Ze's words with neither affirmation nor denial:
"My Qilin clan has always been the ruler of this Xuanxian Realm. My current appointment as the ruler of the Xuanxian Realm is not only a matter of course, but also the will of the people. As for what you said about being threatened by Saint Desa and that I have to bear the infamy, I don't understand what you are talking about."
Bai Ze maintained his calm smile and slowly began to speak:
"Whether you understand or not doesn't matter. Let me introduce myself. My name is Bai Ze, and I am one of the few beast clans that are not under the jurisdiction of the Qilin."
The Qilin Emperor's expression changed drastically. Bai Ze's words struck the Qilin Emperor's heart like a heavy hammer.
Bai Ze, an ancient divine beast, is of the same generation as its ancestor, the Qilin Saint Lord. For Bai Ze to classify itself as a beast is to belittle itself and elevate the Qilin clan.
This also demonstrates Bai Ze's respect for the Qilin clan!
"Senior Bai Ze!"
The Qilin Emperor put away his long-held air of superiority and respectfully bowed to Bai Ze.
Although the Qilin clan and Bai Ze had no interaction, Bai Ze's reputation was widespread, and he accepted this courtesy.
Bai Ze waved his hand and spoke to the Qilin Emperor:
"I have come to see you today to discuss the future of the Qilin clan!"
