Chapter 1726 “Outer Domain (3)”
This remark actually made the man feel much better inside, causing that expression to lighten up: “That’s right, he will always be the loser before myself. If there’s nothing else you need to report then you can go back down. I want your full attention on that Yun Ruo Xi, nothing is to happen to her.”
First assessing the Monarch’s mood some more, Elder Cloudless grew hesitant but decided to speak his mind anyways: “Monarch, there’s actually one more thing on my mind, I’m just uncertain if I should say.”
“What’s the matter?”
“It’s about that Yun Ruo Xi,” Cloudless treaded carefully since he knows his following words would be dangerous, “there’s been rumors floating about with the ladies in your harem. They’ve already heard about your order of saving her. Everyone believes you are interested and wants to make her your concubine, this includes Yun Ruo Xi herself with the way she acts before the others.”
Hearing this, the man not only didn’t get angry and actually laughed: “If she is her former self then I would perhaps be interested, but she’s so self-centric that it disgusts me with the current iteration. In fact, I would’ve killed her myself if she didn’t have some use remaining.” Pausing after realizing he’s gone a bit too far in that canted remark, “But... if she really wants to be my woman then I won’t mind taking her into my harem, that’s only if she could help me deal with Di Cang that is. Enough, let her be. As long as she’s within the domain then she could do whatever she likes.”
“Yes, Monarch.” Elder Cloudless cusps his fist in compliance and retreated. He did not want to continue disturbing his liege now that he’s got his questions answered.
After the door closed, the man slowly closed his eyes and inhaled a deep breath: “If I can break into the True Celestial rank then this domain will no longer be able to trap me. Unfortunately the goal continues to escape my grasp yet again...”
Ever since the establishment of the main world where recorded history came into existence, only two individuals were known to have reached the True Celestial level. The first being Di Cang the great Demon King from a million years ago, the second being a human heroin who managed to defy all odds and overcome her oppressors.
Of course, there’s also Heavenly Flame Monarch who almost reached that level as well, but he perished after using his own body as a medium to seal off the various domains from the main world, thus disqualifying him from that roster.
“So what if none had ever broken into that level since those two? It doesn’t mean I can’t....” Suddenly, a faint cackle began to escape the man’s mouth like some sort of great villain.
The guy’s not delusional or conceited though despite the confident statement. He’s got a plan. Aside from making a breakthrough using one’s own ability, there’s also a second method to achieving true godhood and that was using a Celestial Heart, the essence of a True Celestial.
Now this would be where Yun Ruo Xi comes into play with the plan. He has no way to get his hands on a True Celestial heart of course, but he does have the supposed new incarnation of that lady. By using her and another item to rip the heart from her soul, he could then step into a whole new stage! At that point what couldn’t he do? Destroy Di Cang? That would be a simple point of his finger by then!
Of course, there’s the issue with the missing item, he still doesn’t have it, and that’s currently in the Demon Realm. It’s the main reason he sent the fox lady over there, it’s to steal the other key item in hi grand plan.
