Eternal Holy Emperor

"Your Highness, may I ask how to deal with the enemy captives? Perhaps according to my opinion—"

A general made a gesture of slicing across his neck, implying to kill them.

Other military leaders also nodded in agreement.

"No—" The Crown Prince rejected, shaking his head: "Though they are enemy captives, killing them would surely provoke anger from various nations, which is not appropriate. For now, confine them in the water prison. Train them well so that they could join our army and become a strength. As for the three Demigod Strong Ones, who are considered notable warriors in Hongy Country, offer them generous gifts to persuade them to join us. If they cannot comply, kill them. Since they cannot serve our country and are people of enemy nation, they must not be allowed to return!"

"The Crown Prince is wise!"

The military leaders all voiced in agreement.

His commanding wisdom, appropriate handling of affairs, decisive killings, truly showed the talent of a genuine leader, the talent of a King, who could lead the entire Xi Country to a more glorious future.

This was the first impression the Prince of Xi Country gave to Ye Chen.

Of course, if that were all, the latter would never stay to observe a complete battle.

Even if it involves Demigods, Divinity Transformation, or even Saintly Treasure Realm, in his eyes, it was merely mortal warfare, happening countless times in the world; why would he care to watch.

However, the most interesting subject to him was this Prince of Xi Country, who exuded a unique aura that intrigued Ye Chen.

He sensed within his heart that this Prince of Xi Country would be an extraordinary person, worthy of his interest.

Thus, he quietly stood aside, continuing his observations.

After a while, all military leaders withdrew, leaving only the Crown Prince alone here, silently gazing at the turbulent Spirit Heaven Sea Domain, with a slight sigh in his heart, as if muttering to himself: "Defeating Hongy Country, what does it mean, after all, they are merely small nations among the myriad of countries on Jiuyan Continent, where above them, there are one hundred and eight Ancient Countries, the mightier Thirty-six Imperial Kingdoms, Seven Great Empires, and the Immortal Imperial Family ruling over the entire Jiuyan Emperor Star."

"I, Yanz Wushuang, though a member of Jiuyan Emperor Clan, am merely a descendant, and cannot even obtain the Emperor Clan’s name. If I do not awaken my bloodline, I’m afraid I cannot transcend the present era, achieving Saintly Treasure Realm is challenging, let alone transcending Saintly Treasure, transcending Reincarnation to become that supreme existence, ruling all living beings."

"I am not content, I dare not only become a mere mortal, unwilling to be trapped in the state below Saintly Treasure Realm all my life. What I desire is not this worldly throne, not to be the Emperor among mortals, but to become the Emperor above all heavenly spirits, the Supreme Emperor!"

His eyes emitted a blazing light, a longing for the supreme throne, aspiring to transcend and truly overlook all heavenly spirits, all clans in the world, overlook the nine realms.

Yet quickly, the blazing light in his eyes faded, dimming away.

Because he knew that even as the Crown Prince of a country, it wasn’t enough, for it’s exceedingly difficult, even the resources of a nation were insufficient to help him transcend Divinity Transformation, becoming a Saint of a nation, let alone that dream of reaching the Supreme Emperor who created the Immortal Inheritance for Jiuyan Emperor Clan, which was utterly unattainable.

But he didn’t realize that beside him, Ye Chen’s eyes suddenly shone brightly, having seen the Prince’s desires, a particular kind of greed, yet pure, merely greed for achieving the Supreme Emperor.

Ye Chen, throughout his life, had seen countless people, numerous Supreme Geniuses, but had never witnessed anyone in the great world possess such a greedy desire toward the Supreme Emperor, yearning to become one of them.

Others, without exception, are longing and pursuing one!

Perhaps this was the special aura emanating from the Prince of Xi Country.

But if that’s all, Ye Chen would be somewhat disappointed, as it would only incite minor interest without being overly special.

Only the next words from the Prince of Xi Country compelled him to stop.
