Rise to God with Life Skill Professions

Emperor Tianwu said nothing more, waiting for the Tiger Demon to continue speaking.

Because he had just asked two questions.

The Tiger Demon also understood what Emperor Tianwu was thinking. Taking a deep breath, he continued, "Your Majesty’s concerns are also understood by the General Envoy, but the General Envoy has said that Your Majesty’s people possess enough strength and even the ability to battle against those at the higher levels of the Daqian Kingdom."

"Even if they are slightly weaker, it does not matter, because the Demon Pseudo-Gods of this world, as long as they are close to the Forbidden Area, will submit to Your Majesty."

With these words, the audience fell into silence.

Those terrifying figures all turned their heads, their eyes falling on Emperor Tianwu.

Emperor Tianwu narrowed his eyes, the aura around him surging toward the Tiger Demon like a wave: "What did you just say? You want me to cooperate with these Demon Pseudo-Gods of yours?"

The Tiger Demon’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. Bowing low on the ground, he proclaimed loudly, "Your Majesty, this is the only way out, the only solution. If you want to avenge your father, this is the only way."

He was well aware that both the Daqian Kingdom and the previous dynasty deeply abhorred the Demon Pseudo-Gods.

And now, the General Envoy actually wanted him to persuade Emperor Tianwu, even saying to enlist the Demon Pseudo-Gods to help deal with the Daqian Kingdom.

If the Emperor Tianwu in front of him was displeased even a bit, his life would be forfeited.

So he could only use all his strength to persuade, hoping Emperor Tianwu would remain calm.

Emperor Tianwu leaned back on the throne, lightly tapping the armrest with his fingertips: "Even my father, at his last moments, told me that even if we were to be destroyed by the Daqian Kingdom, we would not cooperate with the Demon Pseudo-Gods."

"But the idea you have suggested today has indeed made me think of some things."

A hint of joy appeared on the Tiger Demon’s face.

He knew that as long as there was still dialogue, it meant there was room for negotiation.

If there was room for negotiation, he would have a chance to persuade Emperor Tianwu.

The Tiger Demon raised his head and asked, "Please speak directly, Your Majesty. As long as we can eliminate Qin An and assist Your Majesty in overthrowing the Daqian Kingdom, we are willing to give our all."

"Moreover, once Your Majesty agrees, even though Lord Celestial Demon has not descended, he is observing everything. When the time comes, there will surely be great rewards."

Emperor Tianwu sneered: "You speak quite well. I think the Celestial Demon General Envoy sent you indeed as a silver-tongued envoy."

"Alright, I won’t waste words. I genuinely want to annihilate the Daqian Kingdom."

"I want all the Demon Pseudo-Gods of the world to submit to me, becoming my subjects, without stirring up any storms of blood and wind in this world."

Upon hearing this, the Tiger Demon appeared astonished.

He never imagined that the Emperor Tianwu in front of him would have such a grand plan.

And even the current Daqian Kingdom is still unable to achieve such a plan.

What does it mean to command Demon Pseudo-Gods?

It means becoming the true ruler of the world, for even the current Emperor Xuanwu is troubled by matters concerning Demon Pseudo-Gods.

Seeing the Tiger Demon speechless, Emperor Tianwu continued: "I know many of the Demon Pseudo-Gods are under the command of the Heavenly Demon, and you cannot make a decision on this matter."

"Go back and tell your General Envoy that if they are willing, then so am I. After I take action, once the Daqian Kingdom is destroyed, you must help me eliminate those Demon Pseudo-Gods that do not belong to you."

"At the same time, those Demon Pseudo-Gods belonging to the Heavenly Demon must all become my subjects and obey my orders."

Upon hearing this, the Tiger Demon breathed a sigh of relief, saying: "Your Majesty, this humble one need not go back; I have a way to contact the General Envoy."

As he spoke, the Tiger Demon searched his body, pulling out a piece of lustrous jade.

The glow of the jade flickered intermittently, and as the Tiger Demon infused Void Essence into the jade, its glow suddenly soared into the sky, forming a translucent screen in the air.

Within the screen, the figure of the Celestial Demon General Envoy gradually emerged, exuding an overwhelming sense of pressure.

Only then did the Tiger Demon turn around and recount all that had been discussed with Emperor Tianwu.

When his words ended, the scene fell into deadly silence.

Soon after, the Celestial Demon General Envoy nodded slightly.

"Good, proceed as you have stated. When the time comes, you shall be the common ruler of humans and Demon Pseudo-Gods, even if Lord Celestial Demon descends and brings destruction to this world."

"You will still survive, continuing to live in this world, and we will leave you with our finest people."

Emperor Tianwu fell into silence, feeling the immense pressure emanating from the Celestial Demon General Envoy.

But the words of the Celestial Demon General Envoy were even more enticing.

Emperor Tianwu took a deep breath, "What do you need me to do? Should I raise an army immediately or what?"

The Celestial Demon General Envoy said calmly: "It’s quite simple; raising an army is one thing, but the timing should pause for a moment."

"I will find a relatively safe location for you, gathering all those Demon Pseudo-Gods seized by the betrayers of the Forbidden Area."

"All you need to do is take your people to that location and announce to this world that Emperor Tianwu has arrived."

"I believe the Emperor Xuanwu of the Daqian Kingdom will surely take action, and this battle will concern the changes of this world."

"I can also take this opportunity to ponder how to lure Qin An out of Xuanjing City and kill him on the spot."

Emperor Tianwu nodded slightly, saying: "To us, neither Qin An nor the betrayers, Defenders, or Saviors are important."

"I only seek to seize this world and personally behead Emperor Xuanwu."

"As long as you help me seize the world and take revenge on my enemies, I will become a subordinate of the Heavenly Demon."

"Don’t just speak of a single Qin An, even if there were hundreds or thousands of Qin An’s, I would help you kill them all."

He knew very well that these betrayers of the Forbidden Area could not leave it and thus required his help urgently.

Since that was the case, it was a trade, and from this trade, he wanted to gain enough benefits.

Though those Demon Pseudo-Gods were scattered, with these betrayers acting as a link, even the most scattered Demon Pseudo-Gods would be a significant force.

The Celestial Demon General Envoy nodded: "Good, it’s settled then."

Once these words fell, the screen before them vanished completely, never to reappear.

The Tiger Demon wiped the sweat from his forehead.

On this trip, he thought he’d have a one-in-ten-thousand chance of surviving, never expecting to negotiate so easily.

"Your Majesty, if that is so, this humble one will take my leave."

Emperor Tianwu said nothing, allowing the Tiger Demon to leave.

Once the Tiger Demon had departed, Emperor Tianwu turned to the many subjects behind him and spoke lightly.

"From now on, everyone start taking action, preparing for the upcoming battle."

Everyone nodded in unison, and afterward, the fog-shrouded space was enshrouded in silence.

...

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, several months went by.

During this period, the Daqian Kingdom entered an era of peace, but beneath the peace lay unimaginable turmoil.

In these calm times, the people of the Evil Extermination Bureau began to take action.

The Forbidden Area allied with the various experts of the Evil Extermination Bureau, appearing across numerous Forbidden Areas.

Their purpose was very clear, to wipe out all the Demon Pseudo-Gods stubbornly remaining within the Forbidden Areas.

Originally, this would have been an extremely difficult battle, but then the Defenders of the Forbidden Area suddenly appeared, siding with the Evil Extermination Bureau.

What had been a balanced fight turned into a one-sided massacre.

In the midst of frenzied assaults, the Demon Pseudo-Gods were completely wiped out.

The Forbidden Area became peaceful, but under that peace, currents were surging.

Countless martial world forces contemplated how to protect themselves in this undercurrent.

During this time, Qin An had stayed within Xuanjing City, continuously traveling between the Evil Extermination Bureau and the Alchemy Master Alliance, furiously honing his skills in the Pill Master and Array Master professions.

At this moment, after returning to the Evil Extermination Bureau, Qin An closed the door, and his mouth could not help but lift into a slight smile.

The candlelight cast shadowy outlines of his features.

Before his eyes, a wisp of smoke emerged, gradually condensing into words.
