Eternal Holy Emperor

Chapter 1091 - 997: Walking the World (Part 1)

Ye Chen’s arrival, even if just an avatar, caused a sensation throughout Lann Country, drawing the attention of the entire world.

Because he, the invincible Mr. Qian, is recognized as the strongest figure on the Ancient Emperor Continent, has descended upon one of the 36 Empires, Lann Country, leaving everyone to question his purpose.

It’s not just others; even everyone in Lann Country is at a loss, unclear and tense, but not overly fearful.

Because Xia Miao’er also came, and her presence here indicates it’s not a large problem.

Moreover, in the Hundred Battle Mountain Range, everyone knows Mr. Qian bestowed two blood pearls to the two princesses of Lann Country, and Lann Country has never targeted him.

"Welcome Mr. Qian’s grand presence in Lann Country; it is an added glory to our country."

In Lann Country’s Imperial City, the Emperor, cloaked in a dragon robe and crown, quickly approached, a superb Emperor among the 36 Empires, situated at the pinnacle of contemporary power, yet facing Ye Chen with slight restraint.

Following from behind were numerous important Royal Family members of Lann Country, almost all direct lineage were present, even those who usually shut themselves in for seclusion and ignored worldly affairs, the Old Immortals, came forth with a respectful attitude.

"You are too kind, Emperor; this time, I came firstly because Miao’er missed you all, so I brought her back." Ye Chen was amiable, not exerting any pressure, behaving like an ordinary person, yet even so many people remained tense, reluctant to truly relax.

After all, a person’s name casts a shadow, and Mr. Qian’s every move is watched by the world, who dares to be careless.

Xia Miao’er came out from behind Ye Chen, having long regained her adorable and innocent demeanor, she first jumped into the Emperor’s arms, hugging her father tightly.

"Father, Miao’er missed you."

Generally, as a princess, one must adhere to etiquette and refrain from such behavior during important occasions, but no one blamed her. On one hand, the majority of the Royal Family members showed indulgence towards Xia Miao’er; on the other hand, the close relationship between Ye Chen and her was evident, silencing any opposition from the Royal Family high officials, rather, they were quite happy to witness such a scene.

On the other side, Xia Bing’er hurried out, pulling Xia Miao’er along; they were deeply affectionate sisters.

Ye Chen calmly watched the scene, not in a hurry, and said to Xia Miao’er, "Miao’er, go with your sister; I have matters to discuss with your father."

Xia Miao’er nodded, cheerfully saying, "Goodbye, big brother."

After speaking, the two sisters left, leaving him with several Royal Family high officials; the previously mild atmosphere became tense.

The Emperor of Lann Country was an extraordinary person, knowing Ye Chen meant no harm, he proactively spoke, "I wonder about Mr. Qian’s purpose, as long as Lann Country can accomplish it, we won’t refuse."

Ye Chen said something that shocked the entire Royal Family high officials of Lann Country: "I hope to review all relics and ancient books of Lann Country, everything regarding the Era of Gods, even from the Taichu Era to present, and also wish to meet Lann Country’s Heavenly King Ancestor."

The request for ancient records from the Taichu Era to now might have been acceptable, but the Heavenly King Ancestor is a crucial figure guarding the Empire’s destiny, not easily awakened, similar to the Heavenly Kings of the Nine Great Empires on the Ancient God Continent.

Moreover, Mr. Qian is an invincible figure capable of defeating Heavenly Kings, such a risk is significant, the Heavenly King Ancestor cannot awaken easily.

Seeing their hesitation, Ye Chen said, "No matter, you don’t need to worry; I harbor no hostility towards Lann Country, just wish to learn some things from the Heavenly King Ancestor."

The Emperor of Lann Country was a person of great courage, he nodded solemnly, saying, "Please follow me, Mr. Qian."

Finally, led by the Emperor of Lann Country, they awakened the slumbering Heavenly King Ancestor of Lann Country...

All this information was sealed off, not mentioned by the Royal Family members to outsiders; no one knew Mr. Qian’s primary purpose in coming to Lann Country, some even thought it was merely to return Xia Miao’er.

But some always felt Mr. Qian’s arrival was unusual.

This stay lasted for three days.

Three days later, Ye Chen left Lann Country without taking Xia Miao’er with him and instead let her temporarily remain there.

To many people’s surprise, Ye Chen did not immediately return to the Emperor City, instead heading to another of the 36 Empires, Xiang Country, having previously formed some enmities in the Hundred Battle Mountain Range, his arrival caused concerns among Xiang Country’s high officials.

Yet after understanding Ye Chen’s purpose, Xiang Country readily agreed, knowing refusal wasn’t an option, and it was a chance to reconcile any resentment.

This stay lasted another three days, then Ye Chen departed once more.

During subsequent times, Ye Chen’s avatar traversed each of the 36 Empires within the Human Clan Territory, spending three days in each Empire; the purpose was the same, reviewing the ancient relics collected by the Empires and conversing with their Heavenly King Ancestors.

Surprisingly though, only twelve Empires truly had Heavenly King Ancestors guarding their destiny; the other twenty-four did not, as most had entered the Divine Realm.

Among them, five Empires’ Heavenly King Ancestors had already passed away, self-sealing was ineffective, ultimately succumbing to the erosion of time, dying naturally within the mortal world.

Additionally, some Empires were not as strong as they outwardly appeared, even missing crucial elements like the Heavenly King Dao Soldiers, lacking the strongest foundation expected of an Empire, though well-concealed, unknown to external powers; otherwise, they might lose their place among the 36 Empires, facing threats from other forces.

These Empires nearly begged Ye Chen not to spread this information widely, which Ye Chen naturally promised.

Three months later, he had virtually understood all the ancient relics of the 36 Empires and conversed with the Twelve Great Heavenly King Ancestors.

The news eventually leaked out, shaking the world, leaving many stunned, unable to comprehend Ye Chen’s true intentions.

Why study ancient relics and why converse with the Heavenly King Ancestors of the 36 Empires? What hidden purpose exists behind all this, countless people across the world speculated about Ye Chen’s motives but couldn’t grasp the essence.

Ye Chen ignored this, leaving the 36 Empires, obtaining a precise map of the Ancient Emperor Continent, remarkably detailed, even with clear markings of some Forbidden Lands, including Human Clan Territory and the 36 Empires of the Seventy-two Ancient Countries.

Previously unnoticed, now seriously examined for half a day, he soared into the starry sky, overseeing the entire Human Clan Territory from above, his expression becoming peculiar.

Ultimately, he did not visit the Seventy-two Ancient Countries, instead having the Saint and Heroic Masters of Ancient God Continent representing him to explore and collect data from the Seventy-two Ancient Countries.
