Human Clan Defender

Chapter 1236: Chapter 191: The Final Battle May Come Early

Gu Xing shook his head slightly.

"At the same time, if I take one or two more steps forward, although I won’t reach the level of the Primordial Emperor of Ancient Times, I believe it wouldn’t be far off."

"But if that’s the case, Your Majesty, I’m afraid you would have to pay a considerable price!"

Dongfang Zhao’s face was solemn.

Destiny is a double-edged sword; the more one uses it, the greater the price to bear.

Back then, when the former Emperor Qin fell, although there were factors of nearing the end of lifespan, the true reason for his fall was due to borrowing the destiny of Great Qin.

However.

Gu Xuanji at that time was merely opposing a Demon Saint.

If it were to deal with a Demon God, or even a stronger existence, the price paid would only be more grievous.

Gu Xing smiled faintly, his expression calm and composed: "Emperor cannot attain immortality. Even if I linger on surviving, it would only be a few decades at most. If I can strive to fight for the Human Clan, then that is my destined duty."

"Does Defender Dongfang think that an emperor who doesn’t fight for the Human Clan can truly be called an emperor?"

Is an emperor who doesn’t fight for the Human Clan considered an emperor?

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Zhao fell silent immediately.

Gu Xing said: "Though the Human Clan’s strength is weak, we have never feared death. Millions of the Human Clan within Great Qin can all fight."

"However—"

"If things truly become impossible, we must leave a trace of bloodline for the Human Clan, quietly waiting for the day to rise again."

At this point, Gu Xing’s tone suddenly shifted.

"Over these years, the Demon-Subduing Division has been researching the matters of the Heavenly Realm. Is there any significant progress now?"

"Not at the moment."

Dongfang Zhao shook his head, knowing what the other meant by asking this question.

The actions of the Demon-Subduing Division aiming to research the secrets of the Heavenly Realm and seek a way out for the Human Clan have not escaped the eyes and ears of the Imperial Court.

Even when dispatching people into the Heavenly Realm, there were people from the Imperial Court accompanying them.

The purpose was simple.

Like the Demon-Subduing Division, they were all in search of the secrets of the Heavenly Realm.

Gu Xing said: "According to the records of Great Qin and the information provided by the Mount Tai Prefecture Lord, the existence of the Heavenly Realm dates back even more than Ancient Times.

If the secrets of the Heavenly Realm can be deciphered, I will allow a portion of people to enter first, ensuring the continuation of the bloodline."

"I will do my best regarding this matter, but I cannot guarantee 100% that the secrets of the Heavenly Realm can be uncovered."

Dongfang Zhao clasped his fists.

He didn’t promise too much.

After all, the Heavenly Realm has existed for countless ages, and how many secrets it contains is unknown.

With the current methods of the Demon-Subduing Division, the chance of unlocking the secrets of the Heavenly Realm is extremely slim.

However.

No matter how slim the chance, Dongfang Zhao would not give up.

"Let’s hope time is sufficient. Otherwise, the Human Clan might truly have no choice but to fight to the end!"

Gu Xing sighed.

He doesn’t fear death, but he fears the end of Great Qin.

Now that the world is unified, Great Qin already fully represents the Human Clan.

If Great Qin perishes.

The Human Clan perishes.

Gu Xing does not wish for Great Qin to fall by his hands.

"What is the current situation on the side of Great Zhou and Mo City?"

He continued.

Great Zhou refers to the original territory of Great Zhou, where the reborn into calamity, Emperor Zhou Mu Shentong now resides.

As for Mo City.

It was previously Minor Hillock Mountain.

But now Minor Hillock Mountain has long vanished, and the Calamity Domain there is beyond its past comparison.

Mo City!

That’s the term the calamity uses for its domain.

Dongfang Zhao said: "Defender Shen once made a deal with the City Lord of Mo City. Over the years, Mo City indeed hasn’t acted against the Human Clan. Although that one has turned into a calamity, they still stand on the side of our Human Clan.

As for Great Zhou, it’s a bit difficult to manage.

But if a great war truly arrives, Mu Shentong can absolutely not remain uninvolved."

Speaking of Mu Shentong, his words carried much coldness.

He has no goodwill toward that Emperor Zhou who sacrificed the entire Great Zhou.
