Kui Kui knew the Immortal Emperor's nature very well; he was neither a good person nor a bad person, but an absolute egoist.
In some ways, she even felt that the Immortal Emperor and Kui Ziyu were very similar.
They know right from wrong, but they don't care about right or wrong.
The only difference is that the former is for themselves, while the latter is for their families.
Kui Kui doesn't believe that someone like the Immortal Emperor would suddenly back down without ulterior motives.
Kui Kui narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly, "So what if I want to blame you?"
The Immortal Emperor was not surprised. He knelt on one knee and presented the jade crown he had retrieved to Kui Kui with both hands.
"It was my fault for not verifying the authenticity of the information. I am willing to resign from the position of Immortal Emperor."
"Immortal Emperor, no!"
"Goddess, even if the Immortal Emperor has made mistakes, his crimes do not warrant this. We beg you to show leniency!"
"I hope the goddess will show mercy."
The immortals pleaded for mercy.
The Immortal Emperor lowered his head, a sly glint in his eyes.
Kui Kui understands the Immortal Emperor, and the Immortal Emperor understands Kui Kui just as well.
Little Stone is carefree and dislikes power the most, because behind power lies constraint.
Given that the law does not punish the masses and the immortals pleaded for him, could Kui Kui really seize the position of Immortal Emperor for himself?
This tactic of retreating to advance is indeed appropriate.
Kui Kui chuckled softly, reached out and took the jade crown, placing it in his palm and weighing it in his hand.
The Immortal Emperor felt his hands suddenly empty, and subconsciously raised his head, his gaze following the jade crown as it moved up and down.
Kui Kui smiled knowingly and said, "What? You didn't expect me to actually do it?"
She leaned down slightly and whispered in the Immortal Emperor's ear, "You shouldn't have used the immortals as pawns. I'm used to being willful; the more others forbid me from doing something, the more I want to do it."
The Immortal Emperor's heart skipped a beat, but he forced himself to remain calm and said, "I dare not, I will follow the Goddess's arrangements!"
"Goddess, the Immortal Emperor has ruled the Immortal Realm for thousands of years and governed it very well!"
"Yes, Goddess. There is no one in the Immortal Realm more suitable to be the Immortal Emperor than Immortal Lord Bairen!"
Kui Kui's gaze swept over the assembled immortals, and he asked, "Is this what you all think?"
The immortals replied, "Yes!"
Kui Kui tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and smiled gently, "Then you guys are really too stupid!"
The immortals' expressions changed slightly; no one would be happy to be called stupid.
They revered Nuwa, but the Nuwa Stone was ultimately not Nuwa.
Calling Kui Kui a goddess is merely following the way the Immortal Emperor addresses her.
Kui Kui remained oblivious to the changes in the immortals and continued, "When I left the Immortal Realm, it was during the Great War between Immortals and Demons. Countless immortals died or were injured, but there were still over a thousand left. How many people are there in the Immortal Realm now!"
The immortals looked at each other. Apart from those who were in seclusion, almost everyone was here, about a hundred people in total.
Kui Kui took in their reactions and continued, "How long has it been since anyone in the Immortal Realm ascended to immortality?"
The Star Lord of Destiny in the Heavenly Palace replied, "Eight hundred years."
"Even immortals grow old. If they don't constantly push their limits, they will eventually die. If no one in the mortal realm ascends to immortality, will there still be immortals in the immortal realm after a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand years? Is an immortal realm without immortals still an immortal realm?"
The immortals shook their heads.
"For eight hundred years, the human world has become increasingly prosperous, and the underworld is overflowing with ghosts. Only in the celestial realm are people becoming fewer and fewer. Do you know why?"
The immortals shook their heads again, only the Immortal Emperor stared at Kui Kui with a deathly pale face.
"It's normal that you don't know, after all, you guys are stupid."
This was the second time Kui Kui had teased her hair, and the second time she had called the immortals stupid, but this time, no one was angry; they were all filled with doubt.
"It was my foolishness, I beg the goddess to enlighten me!" The Star Lord of Fate is in charge of the Book of Fate in the celestial realm. He knows the number of immortals in the celestial realm better than anyone else, and he is more anxious than anyone else.
Kui Kui looked at the Immortal Emperor, who remained kneeling on one knee, and said, "You say the Immortal Emperor has governed the Immortal Realm very well. Then ask him!"
The Star Lord of Destiny and the Immortal Emperor both had a dark expression.
The Star Lord of Fate did try to raise the issue with the Celestial Emperor, but nothing came of it in the end.
He didn't know if the Celestial Emperor knew the answer, but he knew the Celestial Emperor wouldn't give it.
The Immortal Emperor gritted his teeth, enduring what ordinary people could not bear, and said, "It was my stupidity that led me to this ignorance."
Kui Kui laughed even more happily.
"You see, the Immortal Emperor did not govern the Immortal Realm very well. As for what you said, that there is no one more suitable than him in the Immortal Realm, I don't think so."
"Is there someone in mind to choose as the goddess?" asked the Star Lord of Fate.
“Of course. Let him answer our questions!” Kui Kui said, looking at Yama.
King Yama, who was enjoying a melon, never expected that he would suddenly turn into a melon himself.
He knew the answer to this question, and Kui Kui even provided it himself. Wasn't this a free point question?
But what was the meaning behind Kui Kui's long preamble? Was he trying to make him the Immortal Emperor?
This is a life-or-death question, isn't it?
