Chapter 1347: Sword Forging
To be able to gather such a boundless amount of Fate, perhaps even ordinary Celestials would not be able to do such a thing. That thing definitely had unimaginable amounts of Fate to be able to do such a thing.
Even if it was not caused by something, the entire Heaven Awaken World's Fate was gathering towards there, and perhaps something that would shake the Heaven Awaken World was going to happen there. The experts did not dare to take this lightly and all treated this matter seriously.
However, they could not do anything about it; the place where the Fate was gathering seemed to be covered by a terrifying power, and they could not sense anything within it.
Only the Heaven's Secrets Pavilion knew just what was going on. They had discovered the four Emperor Stars sending their power into something terrifying, and they did not know what it was, but it was most likely related to Fate. Otherwise, it would not be able to gather the Heaven Awaken World's Fate like this.
The Fate that a single Emperor Star had could affect an entire Race and affect the status quo in the Heaven Awaken World; just how terrifying was four Emperor Stars?
The people of the Heaven's Secrets Pavilion all looked quite serious. They did not know what Great Qin was doing, but they felt a trace of fear.
Boom!
A massive explosion sounded out as what seemed like a universe of fate flowed into the Emperor Killing Sword. The Emperor Killing Sword was like a black hole that devoured all of the Fate, and a world-destroying sword energy spread out.
Within the Emperor Killing Sword World, four stars appeared in the blue sky. The four stars were the four Emperor Stars, and their power continuously flowed through the Emperor Killing Sword World, while the Emperor Killing Sword World's power flowed into the Emperor Stars.
Under the help of the massive amounts of Fate, the four Emperor Stars and the Emperor Killing Sword World gradually completed a true fusion.
Shing!
A clear sword hum sounded out throughout the entire Heaven Awaken World, announcing the birth of a terrifying existence. Countless people were shocked and wondered what that sword hum was; could it be a Celestial Sword?
No one knew what was going on, but that sword hum caused the Heaven Awaken World's Fate to go into a frenzy. The heavens and earth dimmed as a massive gale blew.
Everyone in the Human Race felt a chill in their hearts, and cold sweat dripped down their bodies; countless devil beasts in the Devil Race were so scared that they collapsed to the ground; countless ghosts from the Death Race gave off terrifying roars.
An aura of disaster, killing, conquering, and devilishness slowly spread throughout the Heaven Awaken World as the experts of the Human Race, Devil Race, and Death Race all became extremely sensitive to this aura.
This caused countless higher-beings' expressions to fall. Fortunately, this power was not very strong and could not affect people too much.
Otherwise, under the effects of this power, the world would fall into great chaos and disasters would happen everywhere. People would be filled with killing intent and wars would explode out.
"How can we allow such an inauspicious thing to descend?!" Countless higher-beings decided to destroy the thing giving off that terrifying aura. They could not allow it to continue to exist, or else the world might perish because of it.
It was a pity that even though many higher-beings wanted to destroy it, under the obstruction of the powerful Heaven's Secrets, they were unable to determine where it was. They did not even know what it was.
Since they could not divine where the item was, the various large factions could only send out disciples to track down that inauspicious item. They had to quickly destroy it, or else when it became stronger, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Now, the higher-beings understood what it was that had caused the Heaven Awaken World's Fate to gather. It was most likely that catastrophic, inauspicious thing.
Countless disciples obeyed their orders and went out to find that inauspicious item. However, they did not know what was going on because they had not sensed that terrifying aura; that aura was something that only people of extremely high cultivations could sense.
They had only felt terrified as a result of an instinctive response, but because they had not sensed that aura, they were not sure as to what was going on.
If ordinary people had sensed that aura, the world would have long since descended into chaos, and none of them would have been able to escape its effects.
Many of Emperor Path College's teachers gathered to discuss this matter.
"What kind of inauspicious item do you think it is, to have such terrifying power? If we don't destroy it while it has just descended, countless lives and worlds will perish because of it."
"This Sovereign believes that it is most likely a sword. Who has such power to forge such a savage and evil sword to harm the world?"
"That's right, that sword is a sword of disaster, murder, war, and evilness. With how inauspicious that item is, the forger of the sword most likely received an intense backlash; serves him or her right."
"This Sovereign is not very concerned about this matter and just wants to know who forged that evil sword and what kind of methods they used to forge that sword."
"That's quite difficult; not only is that inauspicious item protected by large amounts of Fate, making it difficult to determine its location, but the forger is also not ordinary either and is also protected by boundless Heaven's Secrets. I wonder which old monster it is."
"We should follow the other factions and conduct a search as well! Perhaps we'll be able to find something. None of the other factions are able to remain calm because the appearance of that evil sword is not favorable to anyone."
Many people in the Human Phoenix Empire also took mind of this because they were part of the Human Race and were quite sensitive to that aura. Moreover, they could sense a power that reigned above that of Emperors' within that aura.
A power that was above that of Emperors' was enough to make countless people shocked. Adding on the inauspicious and evil aura, countless people were dumbfounded. The Human Phoenix Empire understood more than others just how terrifying that evil sword was, so they treated this matter very seriously.
They sent out various experts to find the sword, and anyone who was related to the sword was to be killed without mercy.
Almost everyone in the Heaven Awaken World took this attitude; no one wanted to allow something that threatened them to remain.
However, Feng Qianghua did not pay much mind to this because she was focused on something else, which was finding Zhao Fu's location. She was quite surprised that even with the Human Phoenix Empire's power, she was unable to find him.
It was as if he had simply appeared in the Heaven Domain and had then vanished. Feng Qianghua felt quite infuriated about this and decided that once she caught him, she would forever imprison him in the palace.
Right now, Feng Qianghua would never imagine that the person who had forged the evil sword was Zhao Fu himself.
The Sword Sect also treated this matter seriously. This was especially so because their love and passion for swords bordered on madness.
Chapter 1348: Evil Sword of Chaos
"What a pity! Such a peerless sword's fate is going to be destroyed. If they gave that sword to me, I would hide it where no one else would find it and guard it for the rest of my life. I would keep the sword company for all time and wouldn't let it harm the world."
"Haha! Do you really think you could control that evil sword? Right after that evil sword descended, it gathered the entire Heaven Awaken World's Fate, and its evil aura spread throughout the entire world. Do you know just how terrifying that sword is?"
"Ai! Even though I love swords, even I think such an evil sword should be destroyed and should not be allowed to harm the world."
"It's so sad to see such a peerless sword be destroyed. Perhaps it could rival the Heaven Awaken Ten Swords."
"Speaking of the Heaven Awaken Ten Swords, isn't the third-ranked Demon World Evil Sword an incredibly dark and evil sword? The power it contains can easily demonify ten or so worlds, and those whose power is weak would fall to the demon path in front of this sword and become a monster. However, everyone isn't clamoring to destroy that sword, so why is everyone clamoring to have this sword be destroyed?"
"The Demon World Evil Sword can only affect a small portion of people, and everyone wants it and wants to wield its terrifying power; how could they want to destroy it? However, this evil sword will harm all people; they're on completely different levels."
"That's right! The Demon World Evil Sword is a weapon that can be used to kill people, but that evil sword is not a weapon. It is a wellspring of disaster."
"This sword is quite different and is not an ordinary weapon. Given the inauspicious and evil aura it gives off, as well as the massive amount of Fate it has gathered, it is likely a special evil sword."
"There's no need to talk about this any more; let's go and find that evil sword! Our Sect has the Ten Thousand Sword Heaven Stone and should have an advantage. Perhaps we'll be able to find that sword first, and if we don't destroy it, we can seal it within our Sword Sect!"
Now, the various factions were all searching for the evil sword. All of them were searching for the evil sword, and all decided to destroy it, as it would bring massive catastrophes. If they did not destroy it, they would be doomed.
The other factions did not know much about the evil sword or its history, but one faction knew clearly, and that was the Heaven's Secrets Pavilion.
They had kept an eye on Zhao Fu this entire time and had not leaked any information. They were very familiar with Zhao Fu's aura, so they knew the history behind this terrifying sword.
They guessed that Zhao Fu was forming some kind of Fate item; General Armaments, King Armaments, General Stars, King Stars, and Emperor Stars were all related to Fate, so it was correct to call the sword a Fate item.
However, they did not know what Zhao Fu was thinking, fusing the Emperor Killing Sword with the four Emperor Stars' power.
Because it was itself a Fate item, adding on the massive amount of Fate from the four Emperor Stars and given how terrifying the sword was already, it had formed such a terrifying evil sword.
As for the sword's attributes, why was it not the Celestial Star's attributes? Or the Nether Emperor Star's attributes? Or the Violet Sky Dragon Star's attributes? Even if it did not take any of their attributes, it would already have terrifying power, so why did it have to take the Chaos Imperial Star's attributes?
In terms of power, the Celestial Star, Nether Emperor Star, and Violet Sky Dragon Star, the sovereign stars of three races, should have been much more powerful than the Chaos Imperial Star. This Emperor Killing Sword should not have taken the Chaos Imperial Star's attributes.
There were a few reasons for this:
Zhao Fu's first Emperor Star had been the Chaos Imperial Star, and it was Zhao Fu's Fate Star and main star. The others were all subsidiary stars and could not replace it.
Moreover, even though the three Emperor Stars were powerful, they did not have clear attributes. The Seven Murders Sword had an attribute of killing, the Army Destroyer Sword had an attribute of conquering, and the Voracious Wolf Sword had an attribute of plotting. The Chaos Imperial Star's attribute of chaos and disaster fulfilled the conditions of forming a King Armament.
The Chaos Imperial Star's formation was also quite special; it was a fusion of the Chaos Demon Star and the Myrtle Imperial Star, and it had also devoured the power of other Emperor Stars.
Even though the three Emperor Stars were powerful, the truly powerful one was the Chaos Imperial Star. Its aura of chaos and disaster could invade and devour all other stars; no Emperor Star could escape its corrosion, and it was the bane of all other stars.
"Ai! That person has such good talent and had such good luck; why couldn't he just behave well and develop stably? Perhaps one day he could have shaken the Heaven Domain. Why forge that sword? Now, the whole world wants to kill him."
"I feel the same way! It's the first time someone has had four Emperor Stars; what a pity! Now, even a higher-being won't be able to protect him."
"What higher-being, even a Half-Step Celestial would not be able to protect him. Unless he hands over the evil sword, he'll definitely die."
"How are you all so sure? He has the Chaos Imperial Star, so how can he just sit and wait to die? Moreover, he has four Emperor Stars and did not die from the Emperor Killer Curse. Perhaps he has a chance."
"I feel that if such a person is given the chance to develop, he'll become an incredibly terrifying person; let's wait for his name to shake the Heaven Domain! Of course, that's only if he doesn't die first."
Everyone was discussing this matter, and a young woman in white had a serious expression, not saying something. This matter had long since been reported to the higher-ups, and the old monsters most likely knew about it; now, they were waiting for their orders.
The orders came quickly, which were to continue to observe and not to interfere. They prohibited any talk of this within the Pavilion, and anyone who disobeyed was to be killed.
The first part of the orders were quite calm and were not out of the ordinary, but the consequences were filled with killing intent; it could be seen how seriously the old monsters took this matter.
After hearing these orders, everyone felt quite shocked and sealed their lips and did not dare to discuss this matter.
After hearing this order, the white-clothed young woman frowned but was not too surprised. She went to the Heaven's Secrets machine and sent her consciousness into the vast Heaven's Secrets.
Back at Great Qin, all of the abnormal signs had disappeared. After absorbing large amounts of Fate, the Emperor Killing Sword silently floated in the sky. Its appearance did not change much, and it was still black and blood-red and gave off a simple aura.
The only change was that a magic formation had appeared on the sword. It was the colourful magic formation from before, but it was now black and blood-red colored.
Zhao Fu sensed the sword and found that it was still within his control, allowing him to let out a sigh of relief. However, at that moment, the Emperor Killing Sword exploded out with boundless sword light and shot towards Zhao Fu, causing his expression to fall.
Chapter 1349: Twelve Swords
Zhao Fu grabbed at the air and countless traces of black Divine aura flowed out, forming a massive black hand that shook the surroundings and grabbed at the incoming Emperor Killing Sword.
Shing!
The Emperor Killing Sword gave off boundless black and blood-red sword dlight, slashing the black hand into countless traces of black aura.
Bang!
The Emperor Killing Sword stabbed into the ground in front of Zhao Fu, and a formless energy spread out. The ground immediately collapsed, creating a ten meter wide crater.
A figure lightly stepped on the hilt of the Emperor Killing Sword; it was a woman dressed in a blood-red dress. She was tall, slim, had white skin, and had long black hair that reached her waist. She was incredibly beautiful, had a pair of golden eyes, and gave off a noble aura.
This was most likely the Emperor Killing Sword's sword spirit, and Zhao Fu was quite surprised, as he thought that it would be a dragon. The woman looked at Zhao Fu and gave a sweet smile as she called out, "Big sis!"
Zhao Fu felt quite surprised and did not know what was going on. The golden dragon within Zhao Fu's body also smiled, and a golden light came out of Zhao Fu's body as the golden dragon flew out and turned into a woman wearing a gold palace dress and giving off an elegant and dignified aura.
After seeing this, Zhao Fu felt quite shocked; despite being with the golden dragon for so long, Zhao Fu did not know she could turn into a human form. Also, the golden dragon was definitely hiding something from him. Before, Zhao Fu had thought that she was a Fate Dragon, but it seemed like this was not the case.
"Big sis, I never thought that I would be able to see you again," the sword spirit said happily as she walked over to the golden dragon and lightly hugged her.
The golden dragon also smiled as she said, "I never thought that I'd be able to see you again either. Luckily you preserved a portion of your soul, which was able to recover under the enormous power of the Emperor Stars. You need to thank that person over there."
The sword spirit looked at Zhao Fu and gave a gentle smile as she said, "You must be my big sis' child! I am..."
"No, you're mistaken." Zhao Fu felt quite startled and cut off the sword spirit. How did she think that he was her son?
The golden dragon lightly laughed as she said, "He's not my child; I've fused together with him as a Fate Dragon, and he has the Heaven Murder Empire's bloodline."
The sword spirit understood and said, "No wonder his bloodline and aura are so similar to yours. Has the Heaven Murder Empire been restored?"
The golden dragon bitterly laughed and shook her head, "The Heaven Murder Empire and Great Qin have fused together. Great Qin is the main one."
The sword spirit slightly frowned, feeling quite unhappy.
Following this, the golden dragon started to tell the sword spirit of the things that had happened after and also explained to Zhao Fu.
Back then, she had been hunted down by pursuers and had nearly died, and the Heaven Murder Empire was also on the brink of destruction. She could only cast a secret technique to fuse with the Heaven Murder Empire's Fate Dragon, preserving a trace of the Heaven Murder Empire's Fate while also preserving her life.
The golden dragon also talked about some matters related to Zhao Fu.
The sword spirit's eyebrows shot up as she looked at Zhao Fu, "Does he really have a Divine Bloodline? And four Emperor Stars?"
Back then, even the powerful Heaven Murder Empire only had a peak Sovereign Bloodline and had not been able to break through to a Divine Bloodline. She also had never heard of someone having four Emperor Stars before.
The golden dragon gave a proud smile as she said, "The person I chose is not bad at all, right?"
The sword spirit nodded in shock. She then realized that she was now a sword spirit, which belonged to the sword that Zhao Fu had just forged.
After the two women talked for a while, the golden dragon returned to Zhao Fu's body and the sword spirit returned to the sword. Zhao Fu asked the golden dragon, "Is there anything else you're hiding from me?"
The golden dragon good-naturedly laughed, "I didn't hide anything from you; you didn't ask, so I didn't tell you about it."
Zhao Fu felt quite frustrated; he had indeed never asked about this before. He asked, "What's your name?"
The golden dragon felt quite surprised that Zhao Fu would suddenly ask about her name, and she replied, "You can call me Xi; you can call my little sister Yue."
Zhao Fu nodded; at first, he had thought that the golden dragon was a Fate Dragon and did not have a gender. Luckily she was a woman, or else he would have felt quite awkward doing it with women in front of another man.
Zhao Fu grabbed at the air and the Emperor Killing Sword flew into his grasp. Now, it did not resist at all. Before, it was the sword spirit controlling the sword to leave Zhao Fu's control, but now that the sword spirit obeyed Zhao Fu, the sword naturally would not resist.
Zhao Fu was quite curious about the Emperor Killing Sword's attributes. After all, it was a King Armament, and even ordinary King Armaments would be especially powerful. Before, Zhao Fu had obtained a King Armament Shard, which had created the Disaster King Ring.
Even if it was not a King Armament, just the fact that this was something created by four Emperor Stars and the Killing Sword made it something that could cause massive waves in the Heaven Awaken World.
Zhao Fu looked at the Emperor Killing Sword's name and found that it had not changed. However, there were many other names, making Zhao Fu feel quite shocked. This was the first time he had seen something like this.
Emperor Path Sword... an Emperor's sword that has gathered incredible amounts of Emperor's Power. Its aura can cause countless creatures to submit and unify the world.
Sword Path Sword... an extreme sword that has gathered the most powerful sword intent. It has sharpness that can split apart the heavens and slash through countless things.
Fate Sword... an item that has gathered a massive amount of Fate. It has attributes like that of a Nation Armament and can gather a large amount of Fate.
Killing Path Sword... an item that has gathered massive amounts of killing intent. It contains extreme killing power and the person who wields this sword can kill gods.
Conquering Sword... a holy sword that contains an intense aura of conquering. This sword can give the soldiers being led incredible power.
Disaster Sword... an inauspicious sword containing an aura of disaster that can cause all sorts of disasters.
Disease Sword... an evil sword containing all kinds of diseases that can cause all sorts of disease.
Sin Devil Sword... a sword containing sin devil intent and can cause all kinds of abnormal signs that can harm all living things.
Chaos Sword... a sword containing boundless chaotic intent. When this sword appears, the world will fall into chaos.
Human Master Sword... with the Human race's Emperor Star's power, this sword can command countless Humans. Whether they are Emperors, Kings, ministers, or commoners, all are servants in front of this sword.
Devil Master Sword... with the Devil race's Emperor Star's power, this sword can command countless Devils. Whether they are Emperors, Kings, ministers, or commoners, all are servants in front of this sword.
Ghost Master Sword... with the Death race's Emperor Star's power, this sword can command countless Ghosts. Whether they are Emperors, Kings, ministers, or commoners, all are servants in front of this sword.
There were twelve names in total, and they all had different attributes. The Emperor Killing Sword was the main sword name, and the other twelve were subsidiary sword names. This sword could be called the Emperor Killing Sword and also any one of the twelve other swords.
Chapter 1350: Emperor Path Sword
It was likely that no one had ever seen so many names on a sword before. Anyone could make up random names for a sword, but the Emperor Killing Sword's twelve names represented twelve terrifying powers.
For example, for the Emperor Path Sword, anyone who held the sword, even if they were just a King or an ordinary person, they could use the mighty Emperor's Power.
For the Sword Path Sword, anyone who wielded the sword could control unimaginably powerful sword intent. Even though that sword intent was not from one's own comprehension, they would still be able to control it.
For the Ghost Master Sword, anyone who used the sword would be able to wield powerful Ghost Power, and the sword would be able to suppress countless Ghosts. No Ghost would not fear it.
It could be seen that the Emperor Killing Sword's twelve names were not just for show; they represented twelve different powers and attributes. It was incredibly powerful and Zhao Fu was quite shocked. He had never seen such a terrifying sword before, and it could be called a divine sword.
Even the legendary Celestial Sword definitely would not have as many attributes as the Emperor Killing Sword. Moreover, all of the attributes were quite powerful, and none of them were useless.
If the Sword Sect knew about this sword's attributes, they would be delirious with joy. Even with all of their history and experience, they would have never seen a sword like this before. If they could obtain this sword, not only would they not destroy it, but they would make it the supreme treasure of their Sect.
Even the Heaven Awaken World's number one sword would pale in comparison to the Emperor Killing Sword. What's more, the Emperor Killing Sword was a sword that could grow.
As the core item of the Emperor Killing Sword World, as the Emperor Killing Sword World grew, its power would also increase. Anyone would be able to imagine just how terrifying this sword be when it developed even more. This was indeed a sword that could harm all living beings and create great chaos.
The Emperor Killing Sword's grade was still Origin grade, and it had not changed.
Zhao Fu looked at the sword's stats. Indeed, it had a whole list of additional stats:
Increases EXP gained by 1000%, Achievement Points gained by 500%, increases chances of spawning S grade or above villagers by 500%, increases maximum number of special professions by 500%, increases stats of all villages by 40%, increases crop production by 500%, reduces crop growing time by 500%, and increases natural disaster resistance by 1000%.
These stats were similar to the King Armament Shard from before, but they were much more powerful.
The EXP and Achievement Points were not very useful to Zhao Fu; the spawn and special profession stats were somewhat useful, but what delighted Zhao Fu the most were the production stats.
Almost all Cities' production stats had disappeared, while the Emperor Killing Sword gave production stats. This meant that it could reduce growing time and increase output - this was a stat that usually belonged to Cities.
The Emperor Killing Sword also had special effects like that of General Armaments, but they were called Emperor Aura Formation, Emperor Light, Emperor Courage, Emperor Weapons, Emperor Power, and Four Emperor Soldiers.
They were mostly similar to the special effects of the General Armaments except two of them. The Emperor Aura Formation could gather the power of one billion soldiers and form an incredibly massive battle beast.
Secondly, the Four Emperor Soldiers effect could give the four Emperor Stars' power to ordinary soldiers.
Even though it could not give much of the Emperor Stars' power, given how terrifying Zhao Fu's Emperor Stars were, even a trace of power would make ordinary soldiers much more powerful.
These were the attributes, stats, and effects of the King Armament, apart from one, which was the Sword Domain. The Emperor Killing Sword could also cast a barrier that covered an entire world.
This barrier was naturally incredibly powerful, and it was formed from the power of the twelve swords. Given how terrifying the twelve swords were, if Zhao Fu unleashed his barrier, it would be impossible for almost any ordinary person to destroy it.
At the same time, these stats were just the Emperor Killing Sword's most basic stats. After the Emperor Killing Sword became stronger, they too would grow.
Thinking about that, Zhao Fu entered the Emperor Killing Sword World; it had most likely gone through big changes.
After entering, Zhao Fu felt quite surprised. The sky was still blue, but there were no clouds. There were blood-red, violet, gold, and gray stars in the sky, and even though they gave off different starlight, they did not have much of an effect and did not dye the sky different colors.
Wind blew across the grass, and the berserk and terrifying killing sword intent had been greatly reduced; instead, a powerful Emperor's aura had appeared.
Zhao Fu looked at the people in Sword Obsession and found that they had obtained some traces of Emperor's Power. There were not many other changes, and Zhao Fu let out a sigh of relief.
After returning to the outside world, Zhao Fu smiled as he looked at the Emperor Killing Sword before carefully putting it away. He understood how powerful its attributes and stats were, so it was best to use it as sparingly as possible in order to not be exposed.
However, Zhao Fu was not worried about other people stealing it because even if someone else stole it, they would not be able to use it. The Emperor Killing Sword could only be used by him, and it might not be possible to even replace the sword spirit.
The sword spirit could affect the Emperor Killing Sword, but the Emperor Killing Sword was truly controlled by Zhao Fu. After all, the Emperor Killing Sword was the Heart Killing Sword that Zhao Fu had forged from the Clear Sable Sword, and he also controlled the Emperor Killing Sword World.
If the sword spirit resisted, Zhao Fu could forcefully suppress it. The sword spirit had only been sent into the sword, and because it was not a spirit born from the sword itself, it could not control the sword.
Zhao Fu had also fused his four Emperor Stars' power into it, so he did not have to worry about a backlash from the Emperor Killing Sword. No matter how evil and dark the sword became, it would not harm him.
If someone else obtained the sword, they would receive all kinds of backlashes, and they would not be able to block it, even if they had a large amount of Fate. This was because the sword power could invade one's Fate.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for obtaining such a divine weapon!" The Commanders and Generals came up and smiled as they spoke.
Zhao Fu nodded as he smiled. Not too long after, the sun rose. Before Zhao Fu could rest, a large number of problems arose.
Many ambassadors from the surroundings came to Great Qin, wanting to know what had happened. They were most curious about the four stars in the sky, and why they had such immense power.
Last time, Zhao Fu had feigned ignorance, but no one would believe him if he did the same thing this time. As such, he could only try to find another excuse.
Chapter 1351: Celestial Peach
Zhao Fu thought about it before deciding to say that Great Qin had an expert helping it, who cast a fate-changing technique to bless Great Qin to remain prosperous. Those four stars were just abnormal signs caused by that technique.
This was more believable than saying that he did not know anything. However, only a small portion of people believed this and most still did not believe it. After all, no one would tell the truth for such a big matter.
They mainly came over to see if there were any big changes in Great Qin. If there were, they would have to be careful and prepare countermeasures against Great Qin.
The surrounding factions were easy to deal with because Great Qin was the most powerful faction here. Even if some ordinary factions did not feel satisfied, they would not dare to say anything. What Zhao Fu was worried about were the ambassadors of Royal Kingdoms; they would not be easy to deal with.
If they did not deal with things properly and a Royal Kingdom attacked, Great Qin would be doomed; Zhao Fu did not want such a thing to happen.
Facing these people, if Zhao Fu lied, they would not believe him at all. However, it was impossible for him to tell them the truth, so he could only drag things out.
Zhao Fu ordered people to take good care of the ambassadors but not answer anything and not to offend them. They were to treat them amicably, and after this matter settled down, it would be much easier to take care of.
In response, some of the factions were not very pleased, and they even considered attacking Great Qin. However, they were hundreds of worlds away from Great Qin, and even if they teleported, moving all of their soldiers would not be an easy task.
Now, Great Qin had four worlds. Even though it did not have a very powerful foundation, no one dared to bully it, and anyone would have to pay a price if they wanted to destroy it.
More importantly, many Royal Kingdoms favored it, so if they sent soldiers to attack and Great Qin chose to seek the protection of a Royal Kingdom, they would not gain anything and would instead make a dangerous enemy.
A few days later, the waves that this matter had caused gradually died down, and Zhao Fu let out a sigh of relief. He had been living on edge for the past few days.
However, what surprised Zhao Fu was that not only was the Greenwood Kingdom willing to marry Princess Qingmu to Great Qin, but the Wine Sun Kingdom also expressed its willingness to marry Princess Jiu Xiaoyun to Great Qin. The Ancient God Sect was also willing to send Gu Qingyue over to have a look if Great Qin's Legatee was suitable.
This made countless people feel incredibly shocked. Why did these three large Royal Kingdoms favor Zhao Fu so much, sacrificing their most important women?
Then, something that shocked them even more happened - the Heavenly Music Sect also expressed its intentions of choosing Great Qin's Legatee to be Yin Ruoshi's husband.
Everyone was sent into an uproar, and many people's hearts ached. They had never thought that even the Heavenly Music Sect would do such a thing. It was one of the top factions in the Ancient Stem Domain, and Yin Ruoshi was the number one beauty in the Ancient Stem Domain. Because she wore a veil, many people had never seen her looks before.
Now, Zhao Fu's name resounded in all directions, and everyone felt curious about why these large factions were acting like this.
Zhao Fu felt quite curious, but soon, he took a great shock. He remembered that at the Ancient Stem Banquet, he had summoned three Emperor Stars, and everyone in the inner regions of the Ancient Stem Domain had seen this. They had definitely connected the dots.
Zhao Fu immediately felt cold sweat run down his body, and he felt that Great Qin was going to face a great catastrophe. He was worried that in the next instant, a few Royal Kingdoms would come attacking.
Zhao Fu did not hesitate and immediately sent out countless intelligence officers and had them collect information. In the end, Zhao Fu let out a sigh of relief, as none of the Royal Kingdoms seemed to show any signs of gathering their armies.
Could it be that his identity had not been exposed? Zhao Fu felt quite confused, but from the intelligence reports, it seemed that the Royal Kingdoms had sent people to secretly investigate Zhao Fu and they seemed to suspect that there was a connection between him and that mysterious Emperor. However, they were not sure if Zhao Fu was that mysterious Emperor.
This time, four Emperor Stars had descended, instead of three, and they had been summoned when he had fused the King Armament, so the ripples were not as great as when the Emperor Stars had awakened. Not too many people had sensed this.
The ripples had been the greatest when the Emperor Killing Sword had devoured the Heaven and Earth Fate, and that was what alerted most people. The aura was also different than the aura from before - Zhao Fu's aura was now that of a Divine aura, as opposed to a Sovereign aura.
Zhao Fu was relatively sure that his identity had not been exposed, or else the Ancient Sword Sect, Bear Mountain Kingdom, and Nether Yin Kingdom would have directly attacked.
At the same time, Zhao Fu found out that the news of the Heavenly Music Sect wanting to marry Yin Ruoshi to Great Qin was false, and it was just a rumor someone had made up.
However, the three other factions really did have intentions of marrying their women over to Great Qin. They most likely saw Great Qin's potential and felt that Great Qin was hiding some terrifying power. They were confident that Great Qin could become a Royal Kingdom.
Zhao Fu felt at ease, and now that he thought of it, even if other Royal Kingdoms really attacked, Great Qin would not be doomed. Zhao Fu could ask for help from the higher-being he knew; he most likely would be able to protect Great Qin.
It was just that with Zhao Fu's personality, and as Great Qin's Emperor, it was not easy for him to go and ask someone for help. However, if the higher-being could protect Great Qin, for Great Qin's residents, he was willing to put down some of his pride.
Facing the three Royal Kingdom's intentions, Zhao Fu could only tactfully decline. He did not want to remain mysterious, and he decided to publicize everything and withdraw any connections to the mysterious Emperor.
Of course, even if he were to publicize everything, he would still have to hide some things. For this purpose, Zhao Fu spent a lot to obtain something that could change his appearance.
There were many items in the Heaven Awaken World that could change one's appearance, but it would be easy to see through them. Zhao Fu had obtained an Appearance-Changing Divine Liquid, which was said to have been made from taking thousands of people's faces, and it could change one's appearance into dozens of other people's appearances. It was quite effective and was difficult to see through.
As such, Zhao Fu used the Appearance-Changing Divine Liquid to make his looks extremely ordinary, because ordinary-looking people would not draw too much attention.
Moreover, Zhao Fu personally met with the various ambassadors, who felt incredibly disappointed. They had never expected Great Qin's famous and mysterious Legatee to look so plain; no wonder he always wore a mask.
Without the mask, and looking at the extremely ordinary face, Zhao Fu no longer seemed mysterious and was just a normal person.
The ambassadors spread this news, and countless women who had been interested in Zhao Fu felt greatly disappointed. The peerlessly handsome man they expected did not exist, and he was simply an ordinary-looking person.
After hearing about this, Princess Qingmu actually ran to Great Qin and mocked Zhao Fu to take revenge before leaving, looking quite pleased.
Zhao Fu felt quite speechless and did not mind too much. He behaved himself and remained within Great Qin, not making any trouble.
A few days later, Zhao Fu felt quite delighted because the Celestial Peach pit had sprouted, and the golden dragon suggested transplanting it elsewhere.
