“Emperor, is it possible that you want to achieve two goals with one arrow?” Helian Mengde hinted.
“Exactly.” The Western Continent Emperor's eyes sparkled with brilliance, “Fang Zixi has a congenital heart condition, and the Divine Medicine that can fully cure her heart is located in the Heaven Devouring Divine Tomb. I have long anticipated that one day she would seek me out.”
“Moreover, as long as I manage to win her over, wouldn’t the Heavenly Gate Divine Palace be under my control?”
“At that time, I will lead the Western Continent Ancestral Dynasty and the Heavenly Gate Divine Palace, choose the right moment, and eliminate the Elysium Sect, completing the unification of the Western Continent Divine Domain.”
Hearing this, Helian Mengde nodded and said, “What the Emperor said is true. Once you unify the Western Continent Divine Domain, the other three continental divine domains will fear your power.”
“Then, we can plan how to conquer the other three continental divine domains, ultimately achieving our grand ambition.”
After listening, the Western Continent Emperor nodded, “The great offering is correct. Therefore, the marriage alliance is our first step towards dominance over the world, and it must succeed.”
“Let’s do this: I will leave this matter to you. Use every means possible to persuade Fang Zixi to agree to the marriage alliance.”
Helian Mengde respectfully replied, “Your Majesty, rest assured, I have an eighty percent confidence in facilitating this marriage alliance.”
“Good!” The Western Continent Emperor was delighted, “I will await your good news.”
“I will head to the Heavenly Gate Divine Palace now.” Helian Mengde said.
“Good, go ahead.” The Western Continent Emperor smiled.
“I take my leave.” Helian Mengde turned and stepped out of the Hall of the Supreme Emperor.
After Helian Mengde left, the Western Continent Emperor thought of Fang Zixi's appearance and murmured to himself, “Fang Zixi! Ever since I first saw you thirty million years ago, I have liked you.”
“You will inevitably become mine, hahaha, hahahaha…”
...
At the same time, in the Western Continent Ancestral City, at the East Town Grand Marshal's Residence.
Qi Kong strode into the Council Hall and bowed to a burly middle-aged man seated there, “Son greets Father. I wonder why Father has called for me.”
This imposing middle-aged man is none other than the renowned grand marshal of East Town, Qi Long, whose strength is unfathomable.
“Son, regarding the marriage proposal, the Emperor has responded.” Qi Long said.
“Father, what did the Emperor say?” Qi Kong's expression was excited, his eyes filled with anticipation.
“On the surface, he did not agree, but in reality, he has already agreed.” Qi Long laughed.
Qi Kong could not wait and asked, “What do you mean by that, Father?”
Qi Long smiled and explained, “Three thousand years from now, once the treasure hunt in the Heaven Devouring Divine Tomb concludes, the Emperor will publicly announce the challenge for marriage.”
“At that time, anyone below the dao god realm can participate. Whoever claims victory will receive the Emperor’s blessing for marriage on the spot.”
Qi Kong exclaimed with excitement, “Is that true?”
“Of course it is true.” Qi Long said warmly, “Would I lie to you?”
“That's great.” Qi Kong’s eyes glinted with a domineering light, “Father, I am currently only at the first layer of the daoist realm. In the outside world, I will cultivate in the Time-Space Magic Treasure for three thousand years. Even if I only advance to the seventh layer of the daoist realm, I will be invincible!”
“The seventh princess is destined to be my wife.”
Qi Long said earnestly, “Kong'er, I know you like the seventh princess, but you must understand that marrying the seventh princess is not just a matter of personal affection; it also concerns the future hope of the Qi family.”
“As long as you marry the seventh princess, you will become the Emperor's son-in-law, and with your identity, talent, and potential, your future achievements will be limitless.”
