Eternal Bonds: A Journey with the Fated Immortal-Chapter 153

Chapter 153

“My clan will dispatch an Emperor, one who is more than capable of resolving all the problems!”

The deity-like woman continued to speak.

She was wearing a golden divine robe with divine energy surging around her as if a vast divine domain was unfolding around her.

“Emperor!”

Hearing this, the Eldest Prince’s heart skipped a beat. He naturally understood this concept.

That was an existence on par with a Great Emperor.

This emissary, it seemed, was able to summon a Great Emperor to take action?

As for the woman’s identity, he was actually not very clear about it.

He only knew that the other party claimed to be a messenger of the Holy Clan, and their strength and the depth of their backing power were both terrifying.

Not long ago, they had come to him with a proposal to spread the Holy Clan’s faith in the Eternal Heavenly Realm.

But now, he could catch a glimpse of the terrifying power behind them, perhaps even one that could rival the True Phoenix Clan.

However, regardless of how it may be, he had already made up his mind to launch a military coup to seize power.

As long as he could integrate his own forces.

And then, with lightning speed, he would seize the throne, and with it, he would be fearless against all enemies.

Even if he were to confront the Chaos Holy Land head-on, or if the true identity of this Holy Clan’s messenger remained a mystery, he was confident that he had the capital to counter them.

Originally, the Eldest Prince didn’t want to rush things, but Su Changsheng’s rise had put too much pressure on him. If not for this, he could have taken his time.

“Good! This Imperial Prince is grateful, Emissary!”

The Eldest Prince’s thoughts were in a whirl, but his expression remained unchanged, and he thanked the Holy Clan’s messenger with a calm demeanor.

“However, don’t forget the conditions between Your Highness and my clan!” the Holy Clan’s messenger said.

“Of course, this Imperial Prince won’t forget. Once this Imperial Prince ascends to the throne, we will issue an edict to establish statues of the Holy Clan in various divine domains, and worship the one who governs!”

The Eldest Prince smiled and continued to speak.

“This is a sacred oath, and this Imperial Prince naturally won’t go back on our word!”

However, although he spoke in this manner, his heart was filled with doubts and uncertainties.

And what kind of existence was this governing deity? Was it possible that it surpassed the Emperors themselves?

“That’s very good!”

The Holy Clan’s messenger nodded her head. She turned to gaze into the distance, seemingly unconcerned about the Eldest Prince’s doubts and uncertainties.

As long as they could worship the governing deity, she didn’t care about anything else.

“Your Highness, when will you take action? Just notify me in advance!”

With that, the Holy Clan’s messenger’s body was enveloped by divine light. She then vanished from sight, causing the Eldest Prince’s pupils to constrict and his heart to skip a beat.

He couldn’t even sense how she had left. That was no small feat, considering he was a future Emperor and this was his own palace that was surrounded by numerous powerful arrays and even a few supreme-level defensive formations.

To leave without being detected, even a supreme being would find it difficult to do so.

This woman… could it be that she was an unparalleled supreme being?

“Five years. Just five years is enough!” The Eldest Prince muttered to himself.

Five years from now would be the time for him to seize power.

As long as he could successfully seize power, ascend to the throne, and control the Imperial Court’s imperial power, he would have the strength to counter the Emperors.

Additionally, by gathering the resources, qi and fortune of the entire Imperial Court, he would have a great chance to challenge the Great Emperors in the future.

As for the ancestors in his clan, they wouldn’t care who the Emperor was, as long as the ruler of the Imperial Court was a member of the House of Ji, or a descendant of the Ji Clan’s main lineage.

And his influence had secretly controlled a large part of the Imperial Court, gathering the support of numerous powerful figures.

Adding to that, he had the backing of his mother’s clan, as well as the influence of various external forces he had brought in.

He was confident that he would succeed.

“Ah, yes. The God of War of the Crimson Blood Imperial Court seems to have some grudge against Su Changsheng, and might be willing to join forces with me!”

The Eldest Prince’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

Next, he planned to gather all the forces he could, and then launch a coup d’etat.

“And my mother’s side has good relations with the Heavenly Restoration Sect, and they’ve even arranged a marriage between me and the Heavenly Restoration Sect’s Holy Maiden which would be perfect for drawing the Heavenly Restoration Sect into our camp!”

The Eldest Prince thought to himself, as soon as he thought of the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Restoration Sect, that absolutely beautiful and unparalleled woman… his heart was filled with a burning passion.

Although he was consumed by his desire for power and his ambition to ascend to the throne, he couldn’t help but acknowledge the Holy Maiden’s beauty and charm which had left him deeply enthralled.

And as for that Holy Clan’s messenger, he too was burning with desire and wanted to possess her.

……

True Saint Continent, Su family.

After a series of receptions, the endless stream of forces had gradually thinned out.

After all, the time since the True Saint Rankings had been announced was relatively short, and it would take a considerable amount of time for the news to spread and ferment.

Currently, the forces that have come to curry favor were only those from nearby divine domains, or some of the old monsters who have seen Su Changsheng’s pursuit of Sovereign Cang Qing.

And soon after, the Su family would release another message, announcing that Old Ancestor Changsheng had taken a wife.

How convenient. Su Changsheng was getting married again.

This time, the wedding ceremony would be much grander than before. It will shake the entire Kunpeng Divine Domain with all the Great Saints and giant figures from the surrounding divine domains, as well as some of the more distant divine domains’ Quasi-Emperors and old monsters, descending upon the scene.

“Divine Firmament’s Great Saint has come to congratulate Old Ancestor Changsheng’s wedding, and presents a top-grade saint medicine!”

“Swallowing-Heaven Sovereign has come to congratulate…”

“The Stone Country’s King has come to congratulate…”

One by one, the strongmen from various forces arrived, either as Great Saints or Quasi-Emperors, and their grandeur and majesty far surpassed the previous wedding.

And this time, the wedding ceremony was held in the Su family’s territory, which was guarded by numerous terrifying Quasi-Emperor-level arrays.

Furthermore, the countless strange phenomena, astonishing essences, and rich and pure spiritual energy in the territory also left each of the strongmen secretly shaken, and they couldn’t help but admire Su Changsheng’s cunning and skill.

This kind of territory was on par with some of the most supreme Holy Lands.

The Su family, which was just a small but influential force a few years ago, had undergone a shocking transformation under Su Changsheng’s leadership. In just a few short years, it had become a force to reckon with.

This made some of the Great Saints, Quasi-Emperors, and other powerful figures even more convinced of the rumor that Su Changsheng was the reincarnation of an ancient Great Emperor, and that he was currently in a state of rapid recovery.

“The wedding banquet has begun!”
