“I never expected that today, this subordinate, would finally meet you, Miss.”
The Undying Emperor Supreme looked up, tears streaming down his face. The figure who previously resembled an unparalleled emperor was now crying like a child.
Yet amidst his cries, there was a hint of joy, excitement, and happiness, akin to a child finally seeing their long-absent mother.
“Master?” Sisi murmured.
“Miss, it's the Empress!” The Undying Emperor Supreme quickly explained. Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he blurted out, “That’s right, Miss, you were born in the Primal Universe, so there are many things you don’t know.”
“How do you know I was born in the Primal Universe?”
Sisi felt a bit confused. She looked around; the aura here felt very familiar, yet she had no memory of it, only an instinctive closeness to this place.
The Undying Emperor Supreme wiped away his tears and said, half-crying and half-laughing, “I know, of course I know. Back when the Master broke through the restrictions of the Underworld and ventured into the cosmic sea, this subordinate followed the Master closely. That’s why the Master entrusted the task of protecting you, Miss, to me. I am the Guardian that the Master left for you.”
Miss!
The Undying Emperor Supreme gazed at Sisi, his heart filled with excitement that he couldn’t contain.
Years ago, the Empress had left him here to protect the Miss, and today, he finally saw her. “This subordinate, Xiao Si, has seen the Miss. From now on, I am willing to use my life to guard the Miss for the Master, fulfilling all the Miss's wishes, ensuring her safety. With my life, I will forge the path of the Miss's growth. Unless I die, I will not allow anyone to harm the Miss in the slightest; those who oppose this will face divine retribution.”
The Undying Emperor Supreme suddenly raised his head, speaking firmly, his eyes shining brightly.
Then, in front of everyone, he knelt down once more to Sisi and bowed deeply.
Boom! In the next moment, a terrifying aura descended, instantly enveloping the Undying Emperor Supreme's body. At that moment, the entire Hall of Destiny began to hum and vibrate again, as streams of invisible death aura circulated, seemingly recognizing the Undying Emperor Supreme and entering his body.
With a loud bang, the aura around the Undying Emperor Supreme surged once more, terrifying and imposing.
What’s going on?
Such a scene left everyone present in shock.
How did it suddenly turn into a recognition ceremony?
Miss?
At this moment, the Emperor of Beginning Charm and the others looked at Sisi in disbelief. The Undying Emperor Supreme was once under the command of the Empress of the Dark Moon. Could it be that Sisi was the daughter of the Empress of the Dark Moon, who was once the head of the Four Extremes of the Underworld?
Hiss!
A gasp of cold air resonated; the Emperor of Beginning Charm and others all changed color.
In ancient times, the Four Extremes Great Emperors held great prestige in the Underworld, but among them, the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor, the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan, and the Netherworld Emperor were actually of similar renown. Only one person was exceptional— the Empress of the Dark Moon.
She was the true head of the Four Extremes Great Emperors, possessing power that reached the heavens, capable of contending with the other three great emperors alone. Moreover, she was extremely upright, kept her promises, and her word was her bond.
It was precisely because of the existence of the Empress of the Dark Moon that the many great emperors of the Underworld would tacitly allow the order led by the Four Extremes Great Emperors to continue. Otherwise, relying solely on the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor and others would never convince all the great emperors of the Underworld.
Unfortunately, the Empress of the Dark Moon later vanished without a trace. Now, the various forces of the Underworld were in disarray. Although the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor and the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan wielded immense power, claiming to be the two top giants of the Underworld, they no longer had the qualification and ability to lead it.
