Chapter 398 - 118: If You Never Appeared From The Start (Please Subscribe)_5
All the Sky-Men were dumbfounded.
Although they had long heard of the name of the Heavenly Machine Elder, few had actually seen him.
Had it not been for Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, recognizing him,
they would have been afraid that even if the Heavenly Machine Elder appeared before them, they would not have recognized him.
The Emperor of Great Yan’s aged eyes sparkled with light as he readily agreed.
"Since the Elder has spoken thus, what is the harm in saving this face for him?"
In Emperor Yan’s view, the changes occurring in the Commandery Princess from Ning Wang County seemed somewhat strange, but they were not fatal.
After a moment, once the aura around the princess stabilized, it would be fine to make a move.
With so many Sky-Men present, Emperor Yan did not believe they couldn’t suppress a mere Commandery Princess from Ning Wang County.
After the Emperor of Great Yan spoke,
the emperors of the other three dynasties said nothing more.
Should they not give face to the Heavenly Machine Elder at this moment, the Elder might not grant them the same courtesy.
They didn’t know the depth of the Heavenly Machine Elder, only that his strength was exceptional. Under these circumstances, they did not want to conflict with such a figure.
After a moment of silence, everyone’s gaze fell on the Commandery Princess from Ning Wang County.
Under their watchful eyes,
the aura around the Commandery Princess progressively grew stronger, and a glint of gold blossomed at her brow.
Around her, it seemed as if celestial music was chiming, and as if Immortals were blessing her.
A marvel revealed itself.
The Commandery Princess slowly stood up, and her appearance suddenly underwent an earth-shattering transformation. Her previously delicate face now exuded an indescribable dignity, and the original tender visage showed a resolute expression.
Her posture was erect, like that of a proud Empress.
Golden flames burned within her eyes, and her star-like eyes that flickered with golden flames swept around her. First confused, she then focused upon seeing the white-robed elder not far away.
The Commandery Princess raised her hand, her mind flooded with one image after another, causing her to touch her forehead unconsciously. After absorbing all the memories, she appeared lost.
"So it turns out, so much time has already passed."
She looked towards the white-robed elder, her starry eyes shifting, her majestic and dignified gaze falling on the Heavenly Machine Elder, "The recent events that have befallen me, they were all your doing?"
The Heavenly Machine Elder stroked his beard with a smile: "It is indeed fortunate that the Empress has awakened. Reincarnation and awakening go against the heavens and earth. If the old Daoist hadn’t used some means, who knows how much longer it would have taken."
The Commandery Princess fell silent for a moment before suddenly raising her hand and striking out with her palm.
The Heavenly Machine Elder’s eyes showed a hint of surprise as he hurriedly waved his sleeve.
Boom!!
Following a barely audible boom, a terrifying shockwave spread out in all directions.
The powerful Heavenly Machine Elder was struck by the Commandery Princess, and no one knew where she had sent him flying.
The Commandery Princess’s expression was indifferent, "Meddler.
Having said this, she then turned her gaze once again to the Sky-Men around her, placing her hands calmly in front of her, her demeanor regal, composed, and graceful.
"Were you just saying that you wish to make a move against me?"
"Now you may."
The meaning behind the Commandery Princess’s words seemed to imply that all the Sky-Men around her might as well take action together.
Yet at this moment, due to the Commandery Princess’s recent hand that repelled the Heavenly Machine Elder, the many dumbstruck and shocked Sky-Men, upon hearing her words, turned pale.
Staring blankly at the Commandery Princess,
naturally, they could not understand why the Commandery Princess, who just a moment ago had been at the sixth or seventh rank, had suddenly increased so much in strength that she could send the Heavenly Machine Elder flying with a single gesture.
After a moment of hesitation, no one made a move.
Emperor Yan, unable to grasp the situation before him, cast down his aged eyes, lost in thought.
From the conversation between the Commandery Princess and the Heavenly Machine Elder, he could tell that it seemed the Commandery Princess knew the Elder.
Moreover,
the Heavenly Machine Elder called the Commandery Princess "Empress?"
Empress?
Which dynasty’s Empress?
Who is it that could be referred to as Empress by the Heavenly Machine Elder?
A myriad of questions inundated Emperor Yan’s mind.
It wasn’t just Emperor Yan who noticed this point, but the other emperors and Sky-Men as well.
Their minds filled with uncertainty.
Perhaps it was because of the power the Commandery Princess displayed, or perhaps it was due to her particularly close relationship with the Heavenly Machine Elder.
Those who had originally intended to make a move against her, now dared not act.
Offending someone who could attack the Heavenly Machine Elder, someone of terrifying strength, seemed suddenly of far less concern than the secrets of Great Chu’s royal family.
The Emperor of Great Yuan was a middle-aged man, his dragon robe sprinkled with a few snowflakes, as though he had just come from the northern lands, with the snow on his clothing yet to melt.
"This matter of Great Chu, my Great Yuan will not meddle anymore; I leave forthwith."
Upon saying so, the Emperor of Great Yuan looked towards Wu Qiche.
"Let’s go."
As his words fell, the Emperor of Great Yuan left with his entourage.
Empress Wei had little interest in the secrets of Great Chu’s royal family. Seeing the Commandery Princess’s strange transformation and this unforeseeable situation, she felt uneasy.
With a mere glance at the Commandery Princess, she led her people away.
Of the four great dynasties, aside from the host, the Great Yan Dynasty, only the Great Zhou Dynasty remained.
Emperor Zhou was just as uncertain about the current Commandery Princess as everyone else. He looked to Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, ready to leave first and plan later.
As long as the Commandery Princess didn’t hold a grudge against Great Zhou over Great Chu’s matters.
