Chapter 1541
After stammering for a long time, Xuan Xiaomo's face turned slightly red, but he still couldn't utter a single opening line.
It was only when Chen Xuan was distracted by playing with the five immortal-grade magic treasures that he realized Xuan Xiaomo and the others had flown close by.
Seeing the anxious looks on everyone's faces, Chen Xuan smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, Senior Tianhu, what's going on?"
"Uh, cough cough... Chen Xuan, as you know, I've been scheming and mediating with all sides for the future of Xuanxiao Star all these years, and I'm already exhausted." Xuanxiao Mo finally chose to take the initiative, fearing an undignified end. "So I'm thinking... how about I abdicate the throne of Xuanxiao Emperor to you? What do you say?"
What kind of character and cunning did Chen Xuan possess?
Upon hearing His Majesty's words, he immediately raised his head and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, good... good, good."
Hearing Chen Xuan's three consecutive "good"s, Xuan Xiaomo, despite his excellent attempt to conceal it, could not hide the endless sorrow and desolation that welled up within him.
Tianhu'er and the others lowered their heads, not daring to utter a word. They clearly understood that Chen Xuan was qualified—not only qualified, but also that once he became emperor, they would need to serve him wholeheartedly.
Without Chen Xuan, everything they had would have been lost.
"Alright... fine, Your Majesty, please don't bring this up again." Chen Xuan was just being playful and trying to lighten the mood.
"Ah... this, this... I'm telling you, Chen Xuan, I'm really tired right now, physically and mentally exhausted, do you understand?" Xuan Xiaomo thought Chen Xuan was testing him, so he directly showed his determination again.
Seeing Xuan Xiaomo's anxious expression, Chen Xuan reached out and grabbed his hand, saying solemnly, "Your Majesty, please don't say such immoral and treasonous things again."
"I, I... I, Chen Xuan, you... you doubt me?" Xuan Xiaomo possessed the essence of a ruthless hero, as well as the shrewdness of a king. He was very good at assessing the situation.
He knew that Chen Xuan could choose not to ask for it, but he couldn't simply refuse to give it to him!
“What I, Chen Xuan, and even my Longxia clan have never wanted is these things. This vast Xuanxiao world is not something that my clan’s cultivators at the Bigu Realm can manage and rule well.”
Are you kidding me? The members of the Qushan lineage, including Elder Long and other high-ranking members, are only at the Bigu Realm. How can you expect a bunch of Bigu Realm and Innate Realm cultivators to manage three thousand feudal lords and Void Immortals? Isn't that ridiculous?
Chen Xuan held Xuan Xiaomo's hand, and the two flew ahead, followed by several celestial immortals. Behind them, a large group of three thousand feudal lords and the immortals in charge of the God-Slaying Guards were gathered.
"Does Your Majesty know that I come from a small world?" Chen Xuan said with a smile.
“Yes, I know.” Xuan Xiaomo nodded.
Chen Xuan shook his head and sighed, "In my previous life, my small world was only about 30,000 to 40,000 miles in circumference. Such a tiny star nurtured nearly 10 billion people and evolved into nearly 300 countries of various sizes. My Longxia motherland occupies only a small territory, yet it supports 1.4 billion people."
Xuan Xiaomo and the others were also surprised when they heard the story of Chen Xuan's hometown. They could hardly imagine that such a small place could nurture and multiply more than a billion living beings.
"Now, my Longxia clan has settled in Zelinhai, within the territory of Qushan in Qingtian County. Zelinhai is just a small area of Qushan, but it is already dozens, even hundreds of times larger than the territory of China that my clan occupied in the past."
"The entire Qushan area is about 100,000 li in circumference, while there are about 3,000 places similar to Qushan under the jurisdiction of Qingtian County."
After saying this, Chen Xuan looked at Xuan Xiaomo and smiled, "So a fiefdom of a vassal state is enough for my Longxia clan to live and multiply in peace forever."
"And it was only after experiencing this tribulation that I realized that rather than being a local overlord of a low-level star, it would be better to set my sights on the endless sea of stars beyond the realm." Chen Xuan said with a smile, "Within the Flame Dragon Realm alone, there are countless nebulae similar to ours, not to mention a single small star."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Xiaomo finally felt relieved.
"If you are willing, I may share the world with your Longxia clan?" Xuan Xiaomo said to Chen Xuan.
Xuan Xiaomo was still uneasy and probed one last time.
"No, everything will still follow the current world framework. I am only working to lay the foundation for the tribe and plan its initial development. As for more resources for cultivating immortality, ambitious members of the tribe need to embark on the path of immortality and fight and compete for them, even if it means going through life and death."
Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile: "I don't want the Longxia tribe's fiefdom to be filled with spoiled brats, parasites, and devils of the younger generation a thousand years from now."
Upon hearing this, the King of Beishan and other feudal lords all lowered their heads in shame.
Putting aside everything else, in just one selection process for the Mountain and River World, the younger generation of their tribe revealed their ugly side.
Even when the opponent possesses overwhelming strength, they still use their tribal prestige to oppress them. Such suicidal individuals, when venturing into the outer realms for training, may inadvertently bring about the annihilation of their clan.
“I understand.” Xuan Xiaomo nodded solemnly at Chen Xuan, then pondered for a moment and said, “Then this Immortal Fate Assembly…”
Chen Xuan and the others had already flown back to the bluestone square in the inner city of the emperor.
"Naturally, we will continue to hold the event according to Your Majesty's plan. We can't just abandon it halfway through," Chen Xuan said with a smile.
Hearing Chen Xuan call him "Your Majesty," Xuan Xiaomo felt a chill run down his spine: "Stop calling me 'Your Majesty' all the time. I am a few years older than you. If you don't mind, how about we become fellow Daoists or brothers?"
Chen Xuan stared in surprise at the emperor, who was only a few years older than him, and asked, "Is this... appropriate?"
"Haha, I think it suits you perfectly!!"
Seeing the smile on Chen Xuan's lips, Xuan Xiaomo grabbed Chen Xuan's shoulder and laughed heartily before flying directly down to the auspicious cloud at the top.
"In that case, I, Chen Xuan, greet Brother Xuan Xiao Mo." Chen Xuan didn't seem to care much, as he already admired Xuan Xiao Mo's character.
"Hahaha, good, good, good." Xuan Xiaomo had one arm around Chen Xuan's shoulder, feeling even more triumphant than when he had married his beloved Daoist partner.
“My dear brother, my Daoist name is: Xuanmo.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan smiled and replied, "Bei Ming."
Xuan Xiaomo nodded and memorized the Daoist title. Then, he waved his hand and shouted to the three thousand feudal lords and three thousand chief guards of the God-Slaying Guards lined up below: "The Immortal Fate Assembly shall continue. Take your positions and release those disciples who have been taken in!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The three thousand princes and the three thousand immortal guards immediately bowed respectfully, then transformed into streaks of light and returned to their respective seats.
However, amidst the clamor of the various feudal lords, Qing Tianchen and Bai Rong were directly placed in the two auspicious cloud seats at the very front, right next to the two huge auspicious clouds at the top.
His Majesty, Chen Xuan, and several other celestial beings also witnessed this scene.
Chen Xuan nodded to Qing Tianchen, Bai Rong, and the other familiar immortals.
Bai Rong was in tears at this moment – Xingjun ranked first, and his Qingtian County God-Slaying Guard branch ranked first this time, the undisputed number one! Who could understand the bitterness he felt?
However, His Majesty and Chen Xuan decided to continue the Immortal Affinity Conference. The immortals and feudal lords under their jurisdiction did not dare to neglect this task and immediately summoned their personal immortal abodes to release the sect immortals, disciples, and clansmen who had been captured and stuffed into them for refuge.
