Who is it?
Lin Feng was slightly startled and quickly turned around to look. His gaze instantly locked onto the source of the sound: the giant statue enshrined in the main hall!
Two dark golden beams of light shot out from the statue's eyes, radiating a terrifying pressure that made one's heart tremble!
Even with Lin Feng's current strength, which is comparable to that of a royal-level expert, he still felt immense pressure when facing this gaze!
"The War Emperor?"
Lin Feng made a bold guess.
"Haha, my young friend is indeed clever!"
A majestic voice resounded from the statue once more, and then a stream of dark golden light flew out from the statue and instantly arrived in front of Lin Feng, transforming into a majestic man wearing dark golden armor who looked exactly like the statue!
"War Emperor Li Qingxiao! You're still alive?"
Lin Feng asked in surprise.
"What, young friend, are you so eager for my demise?"
Li Qingxiao frowned and smiled.
"Well, no, that's not it!"
Lin Feng chuckled awkwardly, "It's just that everyone says the War Emperor Palace was destroyed a long time ago, so I assumed you must be dead too!"
"I never imagined you would still have a wisp of your soul left behind!"
"However, your current situation is probably not optimistic either, is it?"
"This remnant soul probably won't last much longer, will it?"
Lin Feng frowned as he spoke.
"Um!"
Li Qingxiao nodded with a wry smile, "This remnant soul of mine is indeed on the verge of exhaustion!"
"If we don't leave that statue, we can probably survive for another few hundred years!"
"But once it leaves that statue and reappears, it will vanish into thin air in no time!"
"So, let's get straight to the point!"
"Young friend, do you know why I, the Emperor, would risk my soul being scattered to see you?"
"Well..."
Lin Feng pondered for a moment, then grinned and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Senior has appeared here to entrust his legacy to me on his deathbed, right?"
"Haha, young friend, you are indeed a clever person!"
Li Qingxiao smiled and said, "That's right! I came out to pass on my mantle and the entire War Emperor Palace to you!"
Why did the senior choose to pass it on to me?
Lin Feng asked.
"You brat, isn't that a rhetorical question? If you want me to praise you, just say so!"
Li Qingxiao shook his head and smiled, "I have guarded this place for hundreds of years, waiting for a peerless talent who can revitalize my war domain!"
"You brat, you actually managed to display strength comparable to a royal-level expert with only the cultivation of a half-step Martial Emperor! Your talent is even greater than mine!"
"With your current strength alone, you are more than capable of revitalizing the Battle Domain!"
"If I were to grant you my mantle and allow you to advance your cultivation further, the three major imperial palaces in the surrounding area would likely be no threat to you!"
"So if I don't leave my legacy to you, who else can I leave it to?"
"You flatter me, senior!"
Lin Feng smiled calmly and said very modestly.
"You flatter me? You don't need to be modest, kid. I'm not flattering you at all, and I might even be underestimating you!"
Li Qingxiao shook his head. "However, if you want to obtain my inheritance, you must agree to a few things!"
"Oh, what is it? Please speak, senior!"
Lin Feng asked.
"First, after receiving my inheritance, you must rebuild the War Emperor Palace, integrate the power of the War Domain, and lead the people of the War Domain to resist the invasion of people from surrounding foreign lands!"
Li Qingxiao solemnly said, "Secondly, once your cultivation breaks through to the Emperor level, you must lead the people of the Battle Domain to destroy the Longevity Palace, the Profound Yin Palace, and the Beast Taming Palace, and bring all the territories they rule in the Northern Desert, the Western Regions, and the Southern Frontier into the territory of the Battle Domain!"
"Just these two items?"
Lin Feng asked.
"Besides that, I would also like to know, what is your relationship with the Great Jin Kingdom?"
Li Qingxiao asked with focused concentration.
"The Great Jin Kingdom?"
Lin Feng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "To be honest, I am the son-in-law of the Great Jin Kingdom!"
"The prince consort of the Great Jin Kingdom?"
Li Qingxiao was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled and said, "If that's the case, then we're family, and you'll have to call me 'Ancestor'!"
"ah?"
Lin Feng looked surprised, then suddenly realized something, "The royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty is surnamed Li, and you also have the surname Li... Could you be the ancestor of the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty?"
"That's right!"
Li Qingxiao smiled and nodded, "The royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty is indeed a branch of my lineage!"
"But the royal family of Great Jin is unaware of their relationship with me!"
"Because they are a branch of the bloodline that I specifically separated back then as a precaution!"
"To protect them, I have not contacted them at all!"
"I see……"
Lin Feng hesitated for a moment, then quickly bowed and said, "Junior Lin Feng greets Ancestor!"
"Haha, good, good, very good. I never thought that I would be able to see my family before I die, and that I would pass on my mantle to my descendants. Heaven has finally been kind to me!"
Li Qingxiao smiled happily, "Lin Feng, since you have married my descendant, then I have one more request!"
"From now on, you must treat my descendants well and never be a heartless man!"
"If you agree to these three requests, I will immediately pass on my inheritance to you!"
"Very well! This junior swears to heaven that I will fulfill the three requests of the ancestor!"
