"Can someone unprepared truly shoulder the future of the Human Race? Is it really appropriate for us to place such burdens upon him?"
"I remember he grew up in Handan, the capital city of Zhao Country. He has never been exposed to the ruthless world of emperors, nor to the tactics and Arrays that are indispensable to an Emperor. Can we truly rely on him to salvage the Human Race, Your Majesty?"
"Has the Heavens truly forsaken our Human Race?"
"..."
The doubtful remarks of those around were not hidden from Ying Zheng, they were made as plainly as the previous discussions about him; all were frankly spoken.
"You..."
Ying Zheng's face gradually reddened.
He hadn't expected that just by showing his unprepared demeanor, these senior magnates would look down upon him so, leaving him truly stifled.
Finally, he stood up, his face and ears flushed, looking at the many seniors still speaking ill of him, and with a thump on his chest, he insisted, "Teacher, your disciple is ready!"
"What shall we do next?"
Upon hearing the forceful response of Ying Zheng, Ye Hao revealed a wild smile, "Excellent!"
"I knew you would not disappoint me!"
"You have excelled at everything I've taught you over the years!"
"Without any exaggeration, you're much stronger than I was back then!"
"But do you know what's the most important thing right now?"
Ying Zheng shook his head.
He really didn't know what to do at the moment.
Ye Hao walked up to Ying Zheng and patted his shoulder, saying, "What you need to do now is to let that fire that's been suppressed in your heart for years burst out!"
"We are giving you this opportunity to release that fire in your heart!"
"Soon you can show those reincarnated beings from the Myriad Races, unleashing the fire within without restraint!"
"Don't worry, don't hesitate!"
"We are your strong support!"
During the conversation.
Ye Hao waved his hand gently.
A golden seal shimmered into existence from the palm of his hand, dense Human Dao Qi Fortune exploded vehemently, nearly blowing the astonished Ying Zheng away.
"Is that the Human Clan's Treasure, the Kongtong Seal?"
Ying Zheng stared fixedly at the Kongtong Seal in Ye Hao's hand, feeling an inexplicable connection, as if the Kongtong Seal was born to be controlled by him.
"That's right!"
Ye Hao held the glittering, Qi Fortune-filled Kongtong Seal, proclaiming, "This is the Human Clan's Treasure, the Kongtong Seal!"
"Your Majesty, by bringing the Kongtong Seal with you, what about the Royal House of Zhou?"
"Yes! Your Majesty, by taking the true Kongtong Seal out, won't the one left in Great Zhou be exposed?"
"If the members of the Myriad Races take advantage of this, wouldn't it be a loss greater than the gain?"
"Your Majesty, isn't this a bit rash?"
"...."
Everyone, including the Killing God Bai Qi, was shocked by Ye Hao's move to take out the Kongtong Seal, and they began to question it with bewildered expressions.
But to Ying Zheng, these questions were like thunder from the Nine Heavens, leaving his mind utterly blank!
"Ji Fa?!!"
"The teacher is actually the founding Great Emperor of Great Zhou — Ji Fa?!"
Ying Zheng was dumbfounded.
Utterly dumbfounded!
He had never imagined that the teacher who had mentored him for years was the founding Emperor of Great Zhou — Ji Fa!
What has become of this world?
How could the founding Emperor of Great Zhou become his teacher and continually instill in him the ambition to become the Emperor of the Primordial Human Realm? Does he not realize that once he becomes the Emperor of the Primordial Human Realm, it would overturn the rule of the Zhou Royal Family?
Although the Zhou royal house is already in decline, they are still nominally the ruler of the world!
"Teacher, why, why are you doing this?"
Ying Zheng's mind buzzed, unable to comprehend the reason behind Ye Hao's actions.
As "Ji Fa," the founding emperor of Great Zhou, instead of seeking to restore Great Zhou's territory, he was secretly nurturing him, a prince of a vassal state, which seemed very abnormal.
Could it be that he grew tired of being a Great Emperor and wanted to cultivate someone who could unite the world and recreate the Divine Dynasty of the Human Race?
This… is this too much of a child's play!
And too unreasonable, right?!
"Is it strange?"
There was, however, a hint of inexplicable amusement in Ye Hao's eyes. Little Ying Zheng, don't be so surprised, if you knew that the current Heavenly Emperor Shang Tang did the same thing, would your jaw drop in shock!
"Hehe!"
Ye Hao let out a strange laugh and said, "Zheng'er, remember that the ultimate goal for us Cultivators is Transcendence, not the hegemony of spring and autumn!"
"Whether it is a great emperor of the Human Race or the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, they are merely a stepping stone on the path to Transcendence!"
"I was indeed the founding emperor of Great Zhou, but I was only the founding emperor of Great Zhou in the past, and it's not possible for me to forever be the founding emperor of Great Zhou."
"Man should have aspirations!"
"Transcendence is my only pursuit at present!"
"Only by achieving Transcendence and stepping out of this world is what we Cultivators should do!"
"What you need to do now is to set your sights on the entire Primordial realm, and even those big, medium, and small Dust Worlds beyond the Primordial, all should be included in your planning!"
"Suppressing the Myriad Races and reorganizing the Human Race's territories is just a part of what you will do in the future!"
Ye Hao patted Ying Zheng on the shoulder, signaling him to sit down.
"These people will all be your support in the future!"
"Or to say, the entire Human Race will be your strong backing!"
After Ying Zheng sat down in a daze, Ye Hao also took his seat and continued:
"Do not carry too much burden in your heart, although we Cultivators cannot achieve Eternal Life before reaching Transcendence, we still have endless lifespans compared to ordinary people!"
"What you need to do now is to first consider how to become the ruler of Great Qin!"
"After becoming the ruler of Great Qin, think about how to settle the chaotic situation!"
"Then say it out!"
"If there's anything lacking, we people here will help you fill in the gaps!"
Ying Zheng nodded silently.
He did not rush to answer, nor did he hastily contemplate how to become the ruler of Great Qin. Instead, he raised his head to look at the map of the Four Great Continents hanging on the opposite wall.
Having been under Ye Hao's influence for many years, looking at maps and such child's play was naturally easy for him; this map that gathered all the forces of the Four Great Continents gave him enough time to think.
Ye Hao and the others did not disturb Ying Zheng but silently communicated with each other using transmission.
"This child is good; he did not rush to think about what to do! First, he observes the situation of the world; he's a child who can accomplish great things!"
"His mind is clear, his temperament is mature, he knows to first analyze the grand situation of the world, he is a talented and teachable prospect, a natural grasp of the grand schema, very good, very good!!"
"Your Majesty chose well; this old servant admires your judgment!"
"Hopefully, he can end the Human Race's division and completely exterminate the remnants of the Myriad Races, giving the Human Race a clear Qian Kun!"
"If he can do these things, he would be comparable to the Ancients! Even when compared to Emperor Huang's attacks, he would not be much lesser!"
"Comparing only to the Ancients of the Human Race? I think that's a bit modest, if he can end the division of the Human Race, he will surely be renowned throughout the ages and be extolled by future generations!"
"Yes! If he can achieve it, such a grand occasion will indeed occur!"
"..."
