Chapter 1061 Celestial Emperor's Request
"You're right. I was being insensitive just now. Let's end the topic here and return to the reason I've gathered all of you here today." The Celestial Emperor said a moment later.
When the people there heard this, they cursed inwardly.
'Fuck! That Xu Jiaqi definitely found their ancestor's lost legacy! Considering how powerful their ancestor was when he was alive, the Celestial Overlord will become more powerful than ever now! This is bad! The Celestial Overlords will completely overshadow the other factions— our faction soon!'
The immortals there were nervous because the Celestial Overlords were already at the top of the faction ranking. Now that they have their ancestor's lost legacy, their power will skyrocket, allowing them to completely dominate the faction ranking, and nobody there wanted that to happen.
However, there was nothing they could do about it. Unless they could somehow steal the lost legacy from the Celestial Overlords, the Celestial Overlords will, without doubt, grow.
Sometime later, once Xu Jiaqi and Senior Bai took their seats, the Celestial Emperor spoke, "I have gathered all of you today for one simple reason."
After a slight pause, he continued, "The 'Heavens' have spoken recently."
"What?!"
Everybody there was shocked to hear this, including Xu Jiaqi. ƒrēewebnovel.com
"Not long ago, the Heavens became aware of a certain individual. The Heavens believe this person to be related to the Evil God and demand for his extermination as soon as possible."
"Evil God?!" Everybody there experienced another wave of shock after hearing this name. Follow current novels on Freeᴡebnovel.cᴏm.
'Evil God… The monster that soaked the Nine Heavens in blood and a heretic who slayed the first Celestial Emperor… Why is his name relevant in this day and age?!' The Immortals wondered to themselves.
The Celestial Emperor continued, "I know what all of you are thinking. What does the Evil God have to do with this, and what in Heavens' name is happening? Unfortunately, I don't have the answers at this moment. All I know is that we must exterminate this person as soon as possible before he does anything crazy. And before you ask, I do not know the identity of this person nor his appearance. However, I do know that he was last spotted in the Third Heaven."
"The Third Heaven?" The people there became even more puzzled.
How could someone with connections to the Evil God be in such a lowly place?
Someone there suddenly raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, if this person is in the Third Heaven, there's nothing we can do about it. Or are you telling us to send people down there? To travel from the Supreme Heaven to Spirit Heaven will require a tremendous amount of resources."
The Celestial Emperor calmly nodded, "This is not an order. I am merely requesting your help at this moment. Ten— The first ten people to accept my request will receive my support. This means you will be able to send people to Third Heaven without needing to worry about using any resources. Of course, you will be compensated for your efforts as well. Furthermore, the one to exterminate the heretic will be rewarded handsomely."
"I will do it!"
"There's no need to rush it. Even if the Celestial Emperor and the others hurry, they will still need some time to prepare. I will let Yuan know about the matter when we see each other again in a month." Xu Jiaqi said.
"I understand."
Shortly after the Celestial Emperor ended the meeting, several people there approached Xu Jiaqi and Senior Bai.
A cold smile appeared on Xu Jiaqi's face when she saw their faces, and she spoke in a calm voice, "If you're here to ask me about my father's legacy, you can save your breath."
These people looked at each other with perplexed faces.
"So it's true… That you've recovered your ancestor's lost legacy…"
"Let's not be so hasty, Lady Xu. I'm sure we can work something out. Even if it's just a single piece of treasure, we're willing to negotiate."
"Do you really intend on hogging the legacy all for yourself? That isn't very wise, Xu Jiaqi."
Xu Jiaqi sneered, "What I do with my father's legacy is up to me. If you want it, why don't you take it from me— if you have the capability, that is."
