Chapter 1147 Sixth Court Meeting
\'He might even achieve the second level before ascending,\' Wang Wei thought before checking on everyone else. The only thing to notice was that the Five Element Balance Palace and the Taiyi Profound Gate had been focusing their efforts on the Celestial Harmony World, which made sense since it was a pure Taoism Heaven Will. With the rise of Buddhism, they needed to do something, or they would become obsolete.
\'If Supreme Unity weren\'t such a bastard, I would have helped you balance out the spread of Buddhism,\' Wang Wei thought before shaking his head. Supreme Unity might be indifferent to the current state of Taoism, but that would not change the fact he was deeply connected or engrained with it.
Wang Wei summoned Wang Qi.
"Sect master."
"When is your next trip?"
"It should be soon." Many worlds were a little wary of this deal, so they did not send their best during the previous voyage, so their benefit was mainly from the sheer number. But this time, many people knew the benefits and were prepared to send some of their best sealed heaven-chosen.
"Do it now, and once you\'re there, ask them specifically for an Infatuation Flower or a Yin-Yang Flower. If they don\'t have it, try to find it yourself - even contact the sect if need be."
"Don\'t worry, sect master. You can always count on me."
"I know. And as I promised, once this is over, you\'ll have one of the Eternal Powerhouse Spots."
Wang Qi\'s eyes lit up in excitement. His job might look easy, but every time he ascended, he risked his life. An accident could happen at any time in the upper dimension, and based on the scale, even Wang Wei may not be able to save him.
Wang Qi left, and Wang Wei summoned the leaders of the Innate Demon Gods. He had never met them in an official capacity and thought this was a perfect opportunity to welcome them. He thanked them for their services during the war and asked how they were adapting to the world. The meeting lasted a few hours, and Wang Wei displayed his charm and charisma as a leader.
Once they left, he closed his eyes, waiting for the meeting time. His grandfather tried to come to see him, but he left to see Li Jun to hide from him. So, the old man had already caught the situation, and Yu Yan had to tell him the truth. His reaction was as expected - he was angry. He almost made a scene before the court had it not been for Wang Tian to talk him out of it. In other words, his majesty, the Heavenly Emperor, averted another family scandal after what happened to his mother.
The meeting\'s date arrived, and everyone arrived on time. Even Feng Heng sent in a projection to attend. Everyone immediately noticed Wang Wei\'s new temperament, and some people did not hide their gossip, making him speechless.
Wang Wei raised his hand to stop these people from chattering: "We have a lot of work to do, apparently. So, let\'s get down to business, starting from the most crucial to the least. Where are the ambassadors?"
A beautiful woman with long brown hair, long legs on the side of her cut hanfu, and cupped hands led a group of five people. "I am Hua Long. On behalf of the Central Region Alliance, I salute you, the Heavenly Emperor of Virtue." She bowed deeply, followed by the others.
"Heavenly Emperor of Virtue? That\'s a name I\'ve never heard of."
"Your majesty, people no longer refer to you as the First Heavenly Emperor but by this new title," one of the ministers explained.
"Hmm, is that so? Then, why didn\'t they just call me the Supreme Heavenly Emperor? It\'s direct and very fitting."
No one answered him, and some people looked awkwardly at each other.
"I see," Wang Wei uttered. "That name is too powerful and domineering, and some refuse to accept it. So, instead, they put in a [virtuous] title to put me in a box and force me to act in a certain way that fits that title. And if I don\'t, they have justifiable cause to ruin my reputation.
"I\'m guessing whoever suggested that name was definitely a scholar used to using morality to restrain other Emperors or rulers."
Hua Long was calm, but not everyone she brought could remain calm under such an atmosphere, so a few had bright red faces. Meanwhile, the court ministers looked at these ambassadors with a sneer. They knew what kind of person their leader was, and it was truly the biggest joke to think of them for being able to use rules and morality to restrain that man.
"So, who is the scholar?" Wang Wei asked toward the ambassadors, but somehow immediately changed his mind. "Forget it. Such a person is not significant enough for me to remember their name. Regardless, I like the name; it should serve its purpose in times like this."
\'This man...has no regard for any rules,\' Hua Long thought. \'He will use that title for his benefit; when needed, he will instantly abandon it and become a tyrant, and he will not hesitate in the slightest.\'
"What brings you here to see me?" Wang Wei asked.
\'Any attempt for an appeal of emotions, responsibility, and duty will not work on this man,\' Hua Long thought. \'Only benefit.\' She now had to change tactics to approach this meeting.
"The Golden God is rapidly approaching our territory. We know only you have the strength to stop him. So, we ask that you intervene for the sake of your legacy."
"For the sake of my legacy? Interesting choice of words," Wang Wei chuckled. "I\'m curious." He did not immediately give an answer. "How many world communities are in your alliance?"
"538, but we also provide aid to the non-alliance members as long as they ask, and we have the capabilities."
"That\'s a decent size. Do you guys have a leader, or do you have a different governing system?"
"We have an alliance leader, and her name is the Overlord Seal Empress."
"Seal Dao, huh?" Wang Wei muttered. "She must be very capable of convincing so many worlds and communities."
"She is. Without her, the situation would have been worse."
Wang Wei nodded. "Tell me, what is your exact plan?"
Hua Long frowned. "We hope to work together to eradicate this threat by establishing connections through the Dream World. With all our might combined and our ability to mobilize troops, the Golden God will not have a chance, and we can free the people he has enslaved."
"What\'s in for me?"
\'So direct,\' Hua Long thought. "We know that we must rely on your strength, so we are prepared to offer most of the benefits."
"That\'s a good way of saying you\'re going to make the least effort and sacrifice but still want a significant share of the profit."
"No, that is not our objective. Our goal -"
"Alright." Wang Wei raised his hand. "You don\'t need to be a genius to see how this situation is about to develop. Your Central Region Alliance is the weakest of the three parties, so the next step is for me and the Golden God to swallow you until we are the last one standing. Then, we will determine the fate of the lower dimension."
The room immediately became quiet. The other ambassadors had ugly expressions, but Hua Long tried to remain calm. \'The worst situation has occurred.\' After realizing what kind of person this Heavenly Emperor was, she felt things would lead in that direction, but she did not expect him to be so direct.
"I believe this may not be the best approach."
"And why is that?"
"Our understanding is that your goal is to spread the Heavenly Courts. However, the Golden God has disbanded the courts in every world he conquered. If you use this approach, you will lose countless worlds and have to start over - and that\'s on the chance you will be the final winner in this confrontation."
"Haha. You want my help while also doubting my strength."
"Not all. I\'m just stating a possibility."
Wang Wei shook his head. "Your argument is not as appealing as you think. I have all the time in the world, so I don\'t care about wasting time - especially since I will preserve more benefits in the long run."
"Your majesty⌜"
"Listen to my proposal instead," Wang Wei added. "Your alliance should surrender to us."
"No, absolutely not," said one of the ambassadors, so Hua Long stared at him coldly, making him tremble.
"You saw how I\'ve treated the remnants of the commerce hub; you saw how prosperous these worlds have become, and that\'s despite the fact I\'ve punished them severely for daring to rebel against me," Wang Wei continued.
"If you guys surrender, your benefit will be worlds apart from them, and I can even promise you a 20% increase for handing over 500 worlds all at once."
"And if we don\'t?" Hua Long asked after a brief pause.
"Then, let the battlefield dictate your fate."
