Emperor’s Domination

The most shocking thing was that the lifeform coming from Phoenix Queen had a new bloodline – cosmic ancestral dragon.

“I know you’re telling the truth despite how ridiculous it is.” Xiaoyue told Qing Ji.

“You should know I value Phoenix Queen’s honor over my own life. I didn’t want anyone to know about the fetus within her, that’s why I took it away secretly.” Qing Ji said.

“She also has the gluttonous beast bloodline.” Li Qiye said.

“I know what you are implying, it couldn’t be true.” Xiaoyue said.

“I agree.” Qing Ji added.

“And why is that?” Li Qiye asked.

“The gluttonous beast has been sealed long ago.” Qing Ji said.

“He’s still in there.” Xiaoyue sighed.

“Why was he sealed?” Li Qiye asked.

The two hesitated for a moment before Qing Ji spoke: “Gluttonous had devious intent against the queen and was sealed by Skykiller. But I don’t quite agree.”

“Oh?” Li Qiye smiled.

“You are good friends with him.” Xiaoyue said.

“Yes, but I would naturally stand with Phoenix Queen despite having doubts.” He said.

“You are going against the consensus.” Xiaoyue said.

“What more do you know?” Li Qiye asked.

“Nothing, I’m just a dead man.” He didn’t wish to continue.

“How did you know about the fetus gestating within the queen?” Li Qiye asked.

This was also on Xiaoyue’s mind. Qing Ji was the only one who knew. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel[f]ire.net

“Because… I mourned her the most out of anyone.” Qing Ji let out a sigh.

“Watch your words.” Xiaoyue said.

“I mean nothing else. Yes, His Majesty mourned her the most when he was alive, staying by her coffin without leaving. I respect their love, their profound bond. However, after his passing, I kept mourning and observed all the changes.” Qing Ji said.

“That’s why you were the first to notice?” Xiaoyue asked.

“I might be the only one who discovered this, well, there might be another.” He said.

“What do you mean?” She found this surprising.

“Gluttonous should have noticed something strange, just not anything in detail.” He said.

“You had contact?” She asked.

“No, who can undo a seal personally created by His Majesty?” He said.

“Since you cared the most, you should have known how she came to be pregnant.” Li Qiye said.

Life couldn’t appear out of thin air. Alas, the process by which this life was conceived couldn’t be repeated by the divine beasts. They found it disgraceful and disgusting.

Nevertheless, Qing Ji should have known since he always paid attention to her resting place.

“I do not.” Qing Ji said.

“But you should.” Li Qiye repeated.

“Yes, the conception.” She said.

“There was no conception.” Qing Ji said.

“You’re right.” Li Qiye stared at him and said: “You do value Phoenix Queen more than your own life.”

“I only have one thing to say, nothing happened.” He shook his head

“A lifeform couldn’t appear out of nowhere. You must be twisting the facts.” Xiaoyue said.

There was only one being capable of doing this – the high heaven.

Xiaoyue stared at Qing Ji, wondering if she could trust his account.

“How strange.” Li Qiye said.

“What are you trying to hide?” Xiaoyue asked.

“I simply don’t know anything.” Qing Ji didn’t care about potential interrogation methods since he was already dead.

“For some reason, I feel like you know a bit more than you’re letting on.” Li Qiye said.

“I don’t know anything, it’s just a feeling, and feeling can be wrong.” Qing Ji responded
