"The celestial Emperor?"
Recognition came to Biu Wuan's face, he knew about the celestial emperor but up till now he thought that he was only a myth, a legend, just like the celestial realm that he was currently in, but considering he already reached the celestial realm, the emperor of the realm in question should be real as well.
"What about him?"
Biu Wuan asked with a questioning tone, he didn't really know much about him besides that he was a superior expert with great technique and skill, he was a dragon among men and the strongest being in existence besides Hell's willpower.
"Well I already gave you a hint beforehand, you see the celestial emperor is our only ticket towards ascendance."
"Hmm? You really mean that, I guess you need my help to subdue him if you are ready to tell me this precious information."
"Actually only the two of us would be small beans that the celestial emperor could casually crush in his hands, we need the help of everyone."
"Are you really sure about that?"
"Of course I am, I'm going to tell you all of the details after everyone has gathered up."
After their discussion cut off an awkward silence descended upon them.
Because they were generally enemies there wasn't much they could talk about after they have finished their discussion about benefits, and since Yun Jhin didn't want to divulge any more information yet Biu Wuan closed his eyes and decided to meditate until everyone came here, he knew that Yun Jhin would call them here somehow.
Since Yun Jhin already had connections to every place, he knew that those peak God Realm experts would first come for the most populated or most important areas in the place they were teleported.
And Yun Jhin already had people there to leave the message, it didn't take much time for a laugh that sounded to be coming from a ghost came, it was the hunchbacked angel of darkness that Yun Jhin still owed him, Gu Manshu!
He appeared in front of Yun Jhin and Biu Wuan as he looked between them a few times to make sure he was seeing right, then he laughed once again as he said:
"It seems you guys have found something of big importance if you put down your hundreds of thousands of years vendetta."
Yun Jhin didn't say anything besides:
"We will wait until everyone is here before I will tell you what's of such big importance."
"Ok then, keep your secrets."
Gu Manshu didn't really look to be caring as he closed his eyes and mimicked Biu Wuan's meditating, most likely mocking him.
As time passed a shrill voice could be heard coming from the void:
"OH MY GOD, IT'S REALLY YOU, YUN JHIN!"
Yun Jhin shuddered as he heard her voice, Andonara was one of the people that he wanted to see the least, but her strength was also needed.
The moment she appeared she stuck onto Yun Jhin like glue, she had a strange expression on her androgynous face as she chuckled like a fool while drooling over Yun Jhin's body.
From what he knew about her she was a very big fan of his, she started to walk him around his 800 reincarnations as he became infamous due to his actions.
At first, she was a sweet little thing until she found out about Yun Jhin's harem and she massacred it quickly and efficiently before sending the heads to Yun Jhin's throne room.
At that point, he understood that he couldn't keep this crazy woman in his life. He liked his women subdued just like he liked his subordinates and everyone else that was working under him.
At this point, he didn't really care about having children anymore so he only had those two that came from Qinghe. But the expression on Andonara's face told him that she wanted some children.
She always tried to harvest his DNA to get his children one way or another, he wasn't even sure why she was so obsessed with him, but one thing he was sure of was that her soul was either incomplete or somehow messed up.
Biu Wuan opened his eyes as he looked around and said:
"We are all here, ready to tell us what you know Yun Jhin?"
Yun Jhin nodded as he started to tell them what he knew:
"The celestial emperor's body is weakening due to his immense age, sooner or later his shell will expire and he will remain only as soul willpower, this is our only chance of ascending, we can use the destiny gained from the celestial realm to ascend! The emperor's destiny should be so concentrated that it would be liquid by now, if we would be able to strip it away from him we would surely have a chance at ascension."
"Of course I will help my hubby wubby, Yun Jhin," Andonara said while clutching his arm trying to press her chest into it.
Gu Manshu and Biu Wuan looked at each other for a few seconds, they both saw the greed in the eyes of each other but they also knew that Yun Jhin would have never disclosed this information if it was easy to take care of the celestial emperor, this would be the first time the 4 of them would work together!
"You guys should get all of your armies in here, the central region is full of strong cultivators and we need to strike a huge hubbub to awaken the celestial emperor from his nap, if he wakes up now his body will deteriorate even faster."
"My army is already here and they are moving towards the central region."
Yun Jhin waved his hand as Marthon appeared near him then fused with his body disappearing into motes of light.
"Hmm, an out-of-body incarnation?"
"Yes, it was needed for the plan to work, the out-of-body incarnation was the first that entered the celestial realm and I followed soon after."
Yun Jhin was telling a half-truth here but they wouldn't be able to do anything at this point anyway.
"Ok then go and get your armies inside, my army will wait at the border of the central area, they will meet there and we will unleash despair upon the people of the celestial realm, while they have higher cultivation bases their battle power is lacking."
They all nodded and left besides Andonara who was still clutching Yun Jhin's arm, Yun Jhin just glanced at her without saying anything as she saluted him and disappeared as well, she knew she had a job to do and she didn't want to disappoint her hubby.
Yun Jhin called prince Markus once again:
"Your highness, the place is filled with outsiders from the mortal realm, the plan succeeded and they already entering the realm in droves, it seems they are going directly to the central region!"
"I see, I see, you should come back to the capital so I can reward you properly for all the hard work you have done."
"As for the attackers? We should let them wreak some havoc first so my imperial father can finally wake up from his sleep, HAHAHA!"
Yun Jhin nodded and told him that he will come soon.
He destroyed another paper bird before disappearing from the top of the fortress, it was time to go back to the capital.
While his allies will attack the central region from the outside he will do some things inside.
But first things first, he immediately teleported back to the capital as he was welcomed by prince Markus.
He really wanted his destiny reward.
They again went down to the basement of the palace where Yun Jhin soaked into the destiny pool.
He could feel his body fusing with the destiny that was gushing like a geyser from the ground... it was different from the first time, this destiny was way more aggressive and he could feel a hint of willpower in it... he frowned as he immediately jumped out of the pool and saw the two maids that helped him last time look at him with a creepy gaze.
However Yun Jhin ignored them as they both fell to the ground without any life left in them, then they started to slowly transform into dust and disappear.
He looked behind him to see prince Markus clapping while saying:
"It seems you have quite the acute senses but I wouldn't have expected anything else from the man who enslaved the 4 families in the span of 3 months."
Yun Jhin shook his head as he said:
"Quite the unclassy trap isn't it, your highness?"
"While it may unclassy to backstab you, you already know too much, I guess you even predicted this would happen right?"
"Yeah, I kinda did, but have you predicted this?"
Yun Jhin's body and face started to morph as his aura changed as well, he returned to his original appearance, after he talked with his comrades he changed back to the visage of Lin Duritz and now he went back to looking as he originally was.
The moment his appearance changed his aura started to increase and intensify as it fully attacked prince Markus with its whole weight.
Prince Markus felt the increase of gravity around him as he slowly but surely kneeled in front of Yun Jhin, his face was crazed as he looked directly into Yun Jhin's eyes and said:
"You played me like a fiddle didn't you, you are an outsider!"
"Of course I am, what kind of proud celestial citizen would betray his own realm for the grandeur dreams of a power-hungry prince?"
"You... you!!!"
"Ok now you will have to go to sleep... forever, but don't worry your father, mother, and relatives will come and meet you soon so you won't be alone in the underworld!"
