Chapter 2225: 25.115 Lone Black Star - The Empire had Fallen.
After the God of Destruction had woken up, the Immortal God of Yin and Yang who was controlling the body had stepped back and let the Dark Cosmic Lord take over the body. He is still avoiding Hei Anjing whenever he is awake. No one truly knows what is wrong with this immortal god. It was also unknown whether the God of Destruction noticed this Immortal God of Yin and Yang or just pretending to be blind.
However, the current problem is that the empire has fallen. The emperor and the empress are missing. Among the dead, those who served the crown prince to protect the royal family had disappeared with the royal couple while almost half of the empire had died and the others had gone into hiding and the others were taken as slaves living a life worse than animals. If the slave made a mistake during work, they would be eaten alive. The lives of the humans in the former empire are even worse than pets.
The battle at the frontlines had just ended and those at the space territory had just started celebrating their victory when the news about the empire had finally reached them and the one who informed them what happened was none other than Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie.
At the space territory, everyone had been partying the whole night after the clean up on the battlefield was done. Thanks to the crown princess ascending to godhood, his healing ability had been upgraded a lot. Those who were at their last breath were saved by him and their health instantly returned to normal. As for those who were dying on the battlefield, every single one of them were rescued by the Crown Princess and in the last battle no one died. After all, even though Ye Caoyun was at the rear, he was able to keep an eye on the battlefield and supported the crown prince from a distance. As god, his divine consciousness was enough to support his lover and keep his people alive.
After the celebration, the crown prince and the crown princess supported the Grand Duke who had drunk a bit too much tonight back to his room with the duchess supporting them from behind.
"I can still drink more!" The Grand Duke said.
Ye Qinya said, "Imperial Uncle, you cannot drink anymore."
"Father, if you drink even one more cup, dad will throw you out of the bedroom," said Ye Caoyun.
Hearing these words, the grand duke sobered immediately and looked for his wife, only to see Lord Mo Jing smiling at him meaningfully. He immediately pushed the children away and hugged his beloved.
"Lao Po, I am not feeling well," the grand duke said. Then sneak a look at the two children asking them to leave with his eyes.
The crown prince and the crown princess noticed this and smiled then excused themselves for the night. After saying their farewells with their parents, they had returned to their room to take a rest for the night. The couple rested on the same bed laying side by side naturally like all other couples.
Ye Qinya suddenly asked, "Yun’er, do you have plans to return to your world?"
"You mean ascend to Vearth?" Ye Caoyun asked. "We can go there if you want to. But I don’t want to leave until I accompany Dad and Father for this lifetime."
The Crown Prince thinking of his own parents thought of the same thing. He smiled and said, "Alright. We can stay in the mortal world for a while at least until we see our parents off in his lifetime." Ye Qinya reached his hand and held his beloved’s hand gently while saying these words.
He added, "Moreover, we can’t leave a descendant for the royal family, and hope that our parents can at least give us younger siblings to inherit the throne for us."
"You will still have to sit on that throne, it’s not like we can place a baby that hasn’t been created or born yet to take over the throne. Uncle Emperor had been wanting to retire. He will definitely want to retire early and you will still have to sit on the throne whether you like it or not," Ye Caoyun said.
The Crown Prince cannot laugh at all, after all what his beloved crown princess had said was indeed a truth they couldn’t avoid at all. Even if he didn’t want to become an emperor, that throne would still fall on his head. After all, his father had always wanted to give him the throne and retire with his empress mother. Thinking of this possibility, Ye Qinya felt a bit depressed imagining the work he would have to take over once this war against the insect race had completely ended.
All of the sudden, they heard a voice somewhere in the room bearing some bad news for them.
The voice said, "Forget about inheriting something, the empire is now gone and has been taken over by the Zergs. So there is no throne to inherit."
When the crown prince and the crown princess had turned around to find the source of the voice they saw their missing masters appearing out of nowhere. Both were seated on the empty couch inside their room. Both look serious for a reason. Then they recalled what was told to them just now about the empire being gone. The one with the strongest reaction was the crown prince.
Confused and anxious, Ye Qinya asked, "Masters, what do you mean that the empire is gone?"
"The zerg race has sent a royal grade zerg couple towards the empire while you guys are busy at the frontlines fighting against the zerg prince. Without you two at the empire, even the grand duke with him here with you, there is almost no one in the empire who can defend against this invasion from a royal-grade zerg," said the Sovereign God of Void and Darkness.
The God of Destruction added, "There is also the fact that the Third Prince had rebelled. For some reason he had awakened some strange ability to control people’s minds, turning them into puppets. He had also locked your parents in some underground prison as he took over the throne."
This news about the rebellion of the third prince was something they didn’t expect. The Third Prince, Ye Di, might be ambitious but he didn’t have enough ability to take over the palace. But after hearing the special ability the third prince had suddenly awakened, the two of them were confused. How can a mortal suddenly just awaken such an overbearing ability that can even control minds. Normally, this kind of ability can only be bestowed by divine beings or some evil thing of the same level of strength.
Lord Hei Anjing noticed the couple staring at them and said, "Don’t look at us. We are not bored enough to give away such interest...dangerous ability to a mortal. Why caused chaos? Isn’t the changes caused by the zerg race enough?"
"There is something you must know. The Heavenly Laws of this world had been killed by something. You know what that meant right?" Lord Ye Xiajie said.
The expression on the crown prince and crown princess had turned serious. Without the protection of the Heavenly Laws meant that the stability of this world is now gone and everything is possible to happen. That means the possibility of our gods entering this world is not impossible. Since the changes on the third prince had nothing to do with their masters, then this only meant one thing. Another divinity being must have descended in this world and definitely the one who had led to the changes of the third prince.
The gods in this world can be easily counted with one hand. There is only the former first emperor, Ye Xiajie and the former first empress, Hei Anjing. That Fallen Ancient God leading the mutation on the insect race. As well as them, the newly awakened gods of this world. There are originally only five divinities in this world aside from the Heavenly Laws which are now gone. If there is truly another enemy, then that means it’s another divine being. As only gods are capable of granting abilities to mortals.
"I can’t understand why there are too many hidden divinities descending in the lower realm worlds?" The crown princess murmured.
The existence of the God System and the Nether System existed to balance the divinities descending to the mortal worlds. If something like this is happening, it means that there are some changes in the Main system itself and the one causing these errors are most likely other divinities.
Ye Caoyun asked, "Masters, did something happen to Vearth?"
"Nothing much. It’s just that the ancient gods might have started a rebellion," the God of Destruction said nonchalantly.
"Ancient Gods rebelling!?" Ye Caoyun and Ye Qinya exclaimed.
Both of them knew what existence an Ancient God was. They are old beings whose origin is chaos itself and they were born naturally stronger than the divinities who were born from the lower realm worlds. Some see the ancient gods as figureheads and some treat them with great respect. These are beings born with divinity and their physical capabilities are beyond what normal gods possess. They can easily ascend gods without problems.
The Sovereign God of Void and Darkness had spoken, "The problem with the ancient gods had nothing to do with you. However, there is something you must know."
"We should mention it again lest you forget about it for the second time. The Empire had fallen. The current Emperor and the Empress had gone missing."
