Lord White Emperor remembered that every time Chen Pingping spoke like this, a huge pit was always waiting for her behind the words.

She doesn't want to jump, but not jumping would be a loss of face.

So, she remained vigilant.

Sure enough...

After complimenting her seven or eight times, Chen Pingping began to get to the point: "I used to have a dream: to muddle through life, find a few Tao Companions, have a bunch of kids, and then find a utopia to live a peaceful life."

White Emperor raised an eyebrow: "Why are you telling me this?"

"Doesn't Lord White Emperor want the same?" Chen Pingping asked.

"What's it to you?"

"Of course, it matters. Though you're of the Demon Race and I'm of the Human Clan—a different race altogether—we are ultimately beings of the human world. We were born here, opened our eyes to see every blade of grass and tree in this world, and we accept everything here, but... our innate value has not been reciprocated by this world," Chen Pingping said softly.

Here comes the scam.

Another big pit, if there are no surprises.

White Emperor had a premonition, but... she was surprisingly calm, neither sad nor happy, because she remembered someone who once said: "The demise of the human world is a common man's responsibility."

Then, resolutely turned away, embarking on the Ancient Road.

Even the later Human Emperor seemed... every Human Emperor seemed to have such awareness, always feeling the need to do something to give back to this world; otherwise, they couldn't survive.

Even though their endings were tragic, their bodies even annihilated.

White Emperor admired them, but she didn't want to become such a person. Her world was simple; she just wanted to live well, guarding this old land of the Southern Region.

Until one day, that guy returned.

This was her ideal.

"I have entered Huangzhou, witnessed true darkness descending. The Divine Clan attacked, and we narrowly won. If we had lost, Huangzhou would likely have become a wasteland..."

"I have also been to the Netherworld, where there's a place called the Land of Bitter Cold, which used to have a beautiful name, Sky City, created by a senior of the Human Clan long ago."

"The largest force in the Netherworld is called Luo Feng Mountain..." He quietly recounted.

White Emperor listened quietly as well.

Even when Chen Pingping spoke of great wars or Divine Clan descending, White Emperor felt no waves in her heart, as if she had long anticipated it.

"Do you believe that the world we see before us is actually what others want you to see?" Chen Pingping suddenly asked this question.

"???"

White Emperor frowned, not quite understanding—it was very complex.

Chen Pingping sighed: "Heaven Martial, Wasteland, Spirit Realm, even the great lands of the Nine Heavens, are like patches of medicinal fields. Our Human Clan beings and the Demon Race grow on this medicinal field until one day, the owner of the field appears and begins to pick the Spiritual Medicine."

Hmm?

White Emperor's pupils shrank, staring hard at Chen Pingping, shocked to the core.

The medicinal field theory.

He had mentioned it once, too.

The dark unrest was like one picking after another.

The Divine Clan sees the Human Clan as Spiritual Medicine...

But?

How old is he?

To actually see through the appearance to the essence of the matter.

At this moment, White Emperor's gaze toward Chen Pingping gradually changed, no longer the previous disdain, but rather solemnity and shock.

This guy is definitely not simple.

Or have the predecessors of the Human Clan been instilling this concept in them?

"What are you trying to say?" White Emperor's gaze was piercing. Even though she knew there was a big pit ahead, she couldn't avoid it.

Moreover, Chen Pingping wouldn't let her avoid it either.

He smiled and said, "Are you interested in joining my Wuji Sect?"

White Emperor: "???"

Chen Pingping winked: "Benefits and perks are negotiable."

White Emperor: "???"

Damn it...

She thought Chen Pingping was planning something, stirring anger and charging into the Ancient Road, destroying the Ancient City, slaughtering all of the Alien and Divine Race, then breaking into the Heavens.

Just like Wenliang back then.

But this guy, after setting it up so much, suddenly said, "Want to join the Wuji Sect?"

"Soon the Divine Clan will descend and charge into the Nine Heavens. I think only my Wuji Sect can survive this catastrophe; everyone else is going to perish," he said with a grin. "What do you think, senior?"

Heh!

White Emperor sneered: "A little kid from the Jing Family came to attack, and the Wuji Sect had to flee, and now you're telling me your Wuji Sect can withstand the Divine Clan's slaughter?"

Chen Pingping argued: "Nonsense, that wasn't fleeing, it was temporarily avoiding the slaughter, preserving strength. Once the Divine Clan truly appears, our Wuji Sect will definitely give them a heavy blow."

"Since your Wuji Sect is so powerful, do you still need me?" White Emperor rolled her eyes.

"Of course! The more people, the more strength!"

"You want to covet the Southern Region." White Emperor squinted slightly, with curved eyelashes below, and a pair of demonic and bright eyes, seemingly seeing through the truth.

She is a Great Emperor, invincible in the world.

Not only that, she also controls many powerful demon tribes in the Southern Region, which is a formidable force.

With just one command from her, the demon tribes of the Southern Region would join the battlefield.

Hey!

This kid's clever plan is well-executed.

Chen Pingping was taken aback: "No way! Why would I covet the Southern Region?"

White Emperor raised her eyebrows again: "Covet the Southern Region demon tribes!" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Absolutely not." Chen Pingping was sincere.

"???"

"I just feel that for the Wuji Sect to develop, it might need a Great Emperor to guard it." He said, "Even if this Great Emperor does nothing."

"So? You think if I go to the Wuji Sect, I'll just be a vase?"

"Uh..."

"Are you belittling my power?"

"..."

It would have been better if he had said coveting the demon tribes of the Southern Region.

White Emperor would have respected his honesty, but this kid dares to bring her into the Wuji Sect, as a Great Emperor vase.

What a joke!

Chen Pingping changed his tone, laughing: "Senior, if you want to make a move, you can!"

"Refuse, not going, I will not leave the Southern Region, you go!" White Emperor waved her hand, really didn't want to continue chatting with him.

She has maintained her Tao heart for so many years, it's not easy!

If this kid were to fool her with just a few words, would there be a chance to make amends if one day she came to her senses?

"Senior, you and I are both creatures under the medicine field, if the Divine Clan descends, our Human Clan perishes, the Southern Region demon tribes may not be able to escape either."

"If you keep speaking in that tone, perhaps I would be tempted." White Emperor responded lightly.

"Alright!" Chen Pingping smiled bitterly: "Since senior doesn't want to leave the Southern Region, no matter how much I say, it's useless, it's just... eh, forget it, forget it, not saying more."

"Speak!" White Emperor glared at him, hating people like this the most, speaking halfway.

Chen Pingping said: "I'm going to enter the Ancient Road, might see my eldest brother, you say... I am so heroic and upright, have background, have strength, what if my eldest brother accidentally falls in love with me, and then I'm unable to resist, what if the two of us are like dry wood and fierce fire, burning a bed?"

These words were purely nonsense.

Because his purpose of entering the Southern Region has already been achieved, he's just trying to inquire about the situation of the Nine Heavens.

As for bringing White Emperor into the Wuji Sect, it's just a thought, it'd be great if possible, if not, so be it, can't be forced.

Just after finishing, Chen Pingping got up and fled far away, his words returning from afar: "Senior, my eldest brother and I are true lovers, you can't separate us."

Boom!

The Emperor Weapon revived, murderous, and in an instant several hundred thousand miles of sky became dim.

More than half of the Southern Region demon tribe creatures could clearly feel White Emperor's killing intention, they shivered, fearfully looking in the direction of Monster Emperor City.

But in the blink of an eye, Chen Pingping had already escaped from the Southern Region.

Spirit Jade laughed heartily.

White Emperor's killing intention had nowhere to settle, simply submerged, her smile froze.

"Help!" Spirit Jade exclaimed in surprise.

"Speak... are you a spy sent by Chen Pingping." White Emperor gritted her teeth.

Although she also feels that Chen Pingping is very outstanding, completely different from other human geniuses she has seen, but this kid's background is too scary.

And the creation of the Wuji Sect, frequently warring with the Divine Clan.

His fate is already determined, probably like the emperor of a dynasty, to be honest, she really doesn't want to see Xia'er become like her, a widow always.

She's had enough of that taste.

A long time...

White Emperor's killing intention finally calmed down, she stood above Monster Emperor City, gazing at the Southern Diaspora land, squeezing out a sentence between her teeth: "Done, can't beat this kid."

Beside her, Spirit Jade who was beaten looking miserable, said in a faint voice: "Lord, you can really consider."

"I don't want Xia'er to follow in my footsteps." White Emperor was expressionless.

"What if he succeeds?" Spirit Jade sighed gently.

"He will not succeed."

"The Investiture of the Gods reconstituting in this era already explains everything." Spirit Jade came to her side, her garments fluttered gently in the breeze...
