Chapter 1790 - The Strange Dreamless Celestial Emperor
Yin Chen hadn’t noticed the visitor, as he was alone. However, when he reached the edge of the Aeonic Infinidragon Formation, the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect’s people notified Tianming, who was briefly stunned before telling the sects, “Brothers, let’s welcome the dreamless celestial emperor!”
The meeting was inevitable. Tianming also wasn’t afraid of him while he was on his turf. Still, he hadn’t expected this after the lack of response to his invitation. What was he going to do? He was definitely curious about the secrets of the group that he suspected to be divine wonderians, and there definitely weren’t any positive feelings.
“The dreamless celestial emperor?”
“Didn’t he not reply? Why’d he come now?”
“Isn’t it awkward for him to arrive after we’ve already decided on the alliance leaders?”
“He must want to be the second alliance leader, which will push down the Northdipper Swordsage.”
“Second? The dreamless celestial emperor has always been the number one figure of the Myriad Solar Sects, so it’s likely that he wants to be the first alliance leader as Li Tianming has less experience due to his age.”
“I don’t want him to be the alliance leader.”
“Neither do I.”
“Honestly, it’ll be great if they want to contribute, since the Dreamless Celestial Nation is strong. However, no one can relax considering their past attitude and performance. It’ll still be the native sects like the Xuanyuan Dragon and Empyrean Sword Sects that’ll stand up when the going gets tough!”
“I remember seeing the historical moment at the battle of the Myriaddragon Mountains when the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect’s hundred thousand ancestors slaughtered their way out.”
Actually, everyone was lifting up the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect while putting down the Dreamless Celestial Nation. They had all practically forgotten that if the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect hadn’t swallowed the Veildragon Palace, the number one ranked sect would still be the Dreamless Celestial Nation and the number one expert would still be the dreamless celestial emperor.
“Outsiders will never have their hearts with us. He’s definitely up to no good.”
A streak of white light descended outside the hall amidst the fervent gossiping and the dreamless celestial emperor appeared like an immortal. Dressed in white robes, he had peerlessly good looks and was surrounded by white mist. All alone, he stepped into the hall.
The sect masters immediately shut their mouths and people clustered around Tianming, forming an invisible resistance against the dreamless celestial emperor.
When the emperor stepped in, he raised his head and his gaze just happened to clash with Tianming’s.
Tianming noted that his attention was fully on his left eye, but the Azurespirit was missing from it! Although he quickly suppressed it, Tianming still noticed the very minute change the dreamless celestial emperor’s expression went through.
The dreamless celestial emperor walked toward Tianming and pleasantly laughed, “Apologies for arriving late, everyone.” ‘Arriving late’, and not ‘not coming’.
If the Myriad Solar Sects Alliance excluded the Dreamless Celestial Nation despite their power, they might as well serve themselves up to the celestial orderians on a silver platter. Hence, there was no way they would reject the Dreamless Celestial Nation as long as they were willing to join. It had never gone against the Myriad Solar Sects anyway.
The dreamless celestial emperor’s words were friendly, but anxiety immediately filled the air. Everyone had thought the dreamless celestials had parted ways with the Myriad Solar Sects when they didn’t reply. So now, there was no reason to reject him as he smilingly asked to join the alliance he should have been leading.
Tianming had no choice, even knowing the emperor had ulterior motives.
“The emperor is indeed late. We were just regretting that the Dreamless Celestial Nation had abandoned us. We could only establish an alliance first, which we’ve just completed,” the Northdipper Swordsage mildly said.
“Apologies, I was caught up with some matters. Regardless, my Dreamless Celestial Nation is ranked second on the myriad sect ranking. It’s our duty to resist the celestial orderians and fight alongside the Myriad Solar Sects.” The dreamless celestial emperor smiled. If they were rejected, it would just create cause for them to join the celestial orderians instead. Hence, their faction was a huge variable.
Tianming could only generously reply, “Then on behalf of the Myriad Solar Sects Alliance, I welcome the dreamless celestial emperor and the Dreamless Celestial Nation.” At least that would make the sect masters more comfortable.
“Offering my feeble strength for the Myriad Solar Sects’ survival is what I should do,” the dreamless celestial emperor replied. He spoke every sentence with a gentle smile, giving others a sense of comfort.
Many had their prejudice disappear when they saw how good his attitude was. After all, the Dreamless Celestial Nation was different from the wargodeans. They had at least fought the celestial orderians before. If they pushed this massive power to the other side, that would just be suicidal.
“Since the dreamless celestial emperor is here, our alliance leaders should increase by one. I wonder what number the dreamless celestial emperor hopes to be?” Yan Lingxian asked. She was experienced, so she knew that was important. Number whatever leader didn’t exactly matter, since the decision-making rights lay with Tianming, but it was still symbolic. Otherwise, the people of Dreamless Celestial Nation wouldn’t be happy. Hence, it was critical to know whether the dreamless celestial emperor wanted to seize power from the white-haired youth.
Everyone was waiting for his answer. Actually, they had all already acknowledged Tianming.
The dreamless celestial emperor suddenly laughed, “It’s fine, alliance leader is just an empty title. I’m happy as long as I can contribute.”
The words were popular, as the conflict everyone had been worrying about hadn’t happened. The alliance getting stronger was a good thing, and the dreamless celestial emperor not fighting for the top position was even better.
“I think the dreamless celestial emperor should be the second alliance leader.”
“Yes!”
“The seven alliance leaders all deserve our respect. The Saintdragon Emperor too.”please visit fr𝚎e𝒘ℯ𝗯𝗻𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄om.
“Very good.”
Many sect masters had changed their opinion of the dreamless celestial emperor. However, Tianming and the other alliance leaders knew things weren’t so simple.
