Capítulo 1442: Chapter 390: Emperor’s Turn on the Throne—Can Xi Xi Sit Too? Should I Call You Li Half-Saint or Divine Monkey? [Monthly Ticket Requested]
Almost everyone’s gaze was cast onto the White Jade Square, onto the two figures of varying size.
The quiet White Jade Square was filled with a stifling yet bizarre atmosphere.
Spring rain pattered on the white stones, making a soft muffled sound.
The silence lasted for a long ti. It was finally broken with Li Che holding Xi Xi’s hand, slowly raising his head.
Li Che’s gaze shifted, first landing on the Empress, then moving to the Emperor seated on the high platform, whose presence was profound and terrifying.
However, before Li Che could speak.
The Empress turned her head, looking at the Emperor: “Your Majesty, are you serious?”
Countless gazes shifted again, all focusing on the Emperor whose face was indistinguishable but whose authority was as imposing as a mountain.
The breathing of the Eldest Prince, the Second Prince, and the Third Prince quickened.
They all stared eagerly at the Emperor, seemingly trying to ascertain the aning of his words, pondering his decree.
Li Che also glared at the Emperor.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the Emperor slowly stood up, his robust figure exuding confidence. The bright yellow True Dragon robe billowed in the spring breeze, tearing through the curtain of rain.
Beneath the face shrouded in majestic and divine Qi-Blood, his eyes shone like vast stars.
He spoke, leaving no room for doubt.
“A sovereign’s words are not to be taken lightly.”
Wow—!!!
The Emperor’s words were like a massive stone thrown into a lake, causing an uproar.
Instantly, from White Jade Square to the second and third cities of the Divine Capital, whispers and discussions erupted in chaos.
Li Che exhaled. He could feel Xi Xi’s hand slightly trembling in his grip, and with that tremble, Li Che’s heart violently trembled too.
Li Che’s gaze was cold and quiet, looking at the Emperor whose words were not to be doubted, his black hair billowing fiercely, indifferently staring at the Emperor.
He moved Xi Xi behind him, standing like a towering mountain, shielding his daughter from all the wind and rain.
He spoke, his voice as light as a breeze.
“We, father and daughter, refuse this reward.”
In his words, there was also no room for doubt.
In the face of the Emperor’s oppression, amid the overwhelming aura pressing down as if a mountain, Li Che thus spoke calmly.
“My daughter said she doesn’t want to be a Crown Princess Consort.”
“Which naturally ans…”
“She won’t be.”
Once these words were spoken.
The atmosphere of the entire square froze completely, the eyes of various powerful figures flickering.
This is… defiance of the edict!
Buzz—
An extrely fierce Sword Intent erupted, silver sword light clanging, Sword Qi like a gale, instantly evaporating the endless spring rain.
Lv Taibai, with his wide sleeves filled with Sword Qi, instantly descended on White Jade Square, arriving by Li Che and Xi Xi’s side.
“Your Majesty, my disciple is unwilling, so please don’t force it.”
Lv Taibai said lightly.
“Otherwise, what harm is there in defying the edict?”
“If Your Majesty has a problem with , co at directly. What’s the point of targeting a child?”
“And Crown Princess Consort… Your Majesty wants to appoint a Crown Princess Consort at six years old? That’s truly laughable. Your Majesty hasn’t even confird the Crown Prince, so what’s the point of an imaginary Crown Princess Consort?”
“If Your Majesty thinks so highly of Xi Xi, why not let her have your emperor’s position instead?”
Lv Taibai’s silver hair flew, and within his Brow Niwan, the Dao Yujie Sword was brewing fiercely!
“Impudence!!!”
“Lv Taibai, how dare you!!!”
“Lv Taibai, you dare to be so treasonous!”
…
The mont Lv Taibai’s words fell, it was as if a thunderous clap struck, stirring up a great turmoil.
The Second Prince and Third Prince both stood up instantly, slamming the table and shouting angrily.
So high-ranking officials and nobles also shouted in rebuke.
The Emperor’s eyes also darkened.
Lv Taibai’s words were indeed sowhat treasonous. What did he an by suggesting the Emperor’s position should be given for Xi Xi to sit?
That place belongs to the ruler of the nation. How could it be handed over so whimsically?!
In an instant, the atmosphere was taut, a terrifying aura interwoven across the White Jade Square. The air seed to twist as if a thunderstorm was about to descend!
Lv Taibai’s Sword Intent resonated, his sleeves gathered behind him, and the brilliance in his eyes was dazzling to the extre.
He stood firm, coldly looking at the Emperor.
And in this intense confrontation.
A crisp voice suddenly rang out.
Xi Xi tugged at Li Che’s sleeve, curiously asking in a lowered voice: “Daddy… can I also sit on that emperor’s throne that the Sect Master ntor ntioned?”
“Is it comfortable to sit on?”
“If it is, then Xi Xi doesn’t want to be a Crown Princess Consort. Xi Xi wants to be the…”
This question wasn’t loud.
However, the powerful figures present were all incredibly strong, with the powerful experts on the Great God List and those of the Heavenly Gate all gathered here.
Thus, Xi Xi’s words echoed like thunder, attracting astonished gazes.
The four words “Emperor Xi Xi” almost slipped out from Xi Xi’s lips but were forcibly held back.
The fierce, knife-like gazes of many powerful figures gave Xi Xi a fright.
Li Che’s Brow Niwan trembled, his Heaven and Earth Soul spread out.
Shielding Xi Xi from all the oppressive gazes, he ruffled Xi Xi’s head.
This little girl sure dares to dream.
Nonetheless, now Li Che didn’t need to give the Emperor any face.
The other party already targeted Xi Xi.
No matter the reason, whether it was to force Lv Taibai to step out in defiance so as to have a pretext to act against the Qian Yuan Divine Sect.
Targeting Xi Xi was targeting her, and the ti for confrontation was now inevitable.
Regarding imperial power, Li Che never cared or feared it much, nor did he possess an innate fear of authority in his bones.
