When it came down to it, these people had Wu Kuang to thank for their positions. If not for Wu Kuang’s rampage in the past, they would never have gotten the chance to become Great Emperors.

“But, there will always be a chance, right? A Great Emperor is not immortal after all,” Sheng Yu Zhu smiled. She might have been a beauty with a sweet smile back in her heyday, but her current appearance was not suitable for showing a smiling face. It only made her look uglier than if she had cried instead, “Your greatest advantage lies in your youth.”

Yang Kai nodded, “What Senior says makes sense.” Up until today, it had only been a little over a hundred years since he started cultivating; moreover, it was not a problem for him to reach the Third-Order Emperor Realm or even the stage that was half a step away from becoming a Great Emperor with his aptitude. He had a long life ahead of him, so it was not impossible for him to stand at the top when the time came.

Sheng Yu Zhu leisurely stated, “If such a day really comes… I’m just saying; if such a day really comes, I will tell you how to become a Great Emperor.”

Yang Kai’s entire body stiffened for a moment at those words and his eyes gleamed brightly as he stared at her, “Senior, you know the secret to becoming a Great Emperor?”

This had been a question he had always been wondering about. He only knew that he had to master World Force in order to become a Great Emperor but he didn’t know anything more than that. Nevertheless, what kind of existence was a Great Emperor? Even if he could master World Force, he might not succeed in becoming one. On the contrary, what Sheng Yu Zhu just said gave him an infinite sense of hope.

Sheng Yu Zhu replied, “I might have stood a chance if I had not been plotted against by Wu Kuang back then. I’ve experienced something similar once before, so how could I not know something?”

Yang Kai suddenly had the impulse to grab at his ears and scratch at his cheeks. He was itching to know more, so much so that he was tempted to use force to pry the secrets out of her mouth. If he could understand the secrets to becoming a Great Emperor, then he would be one step ahead of the others when the time came. Be that as it may, he was not a person who could not distinguish between right and wrong. Sheng Yu Zhu was simply reciprocating a favour, so how could he go against his original intentions? Nevertheless, he had to admit that the repayment she was giving him was extremely valuable. It might sound rather vague and unreliable, but it was still worth more than any artifact in the world.

Yang Kai grinned sheepishly, “Can’t you just tell me now?”

For somebody as superior as a Great Emperor, the death of any one of them was a world-shaking matter in itself; therefore, even if an opportunity presented itself in the future, chances were that it would only be for one

moment, it was almost dawn and the sun was rising from the East. After waiting for a short while, a gentle light slowly enveloped the land. Sheng Yu Zhu was staring into the distant horizon at that moment, and when she saw the first rays of sunlight, her eyes were filled with a miserable and slightly emotional look as she muttered, “I never thought I’d have the chance to see

Kai suddenly felt a sense of pride. The small exchange he had with Sheng Yu Zhu made him feel a kind of urgency. Opportunities were indeed for those who were prepared. Although he had no idea when that ethereal opportunity would appear, he had to obtain the qualifications to fight among the best in the world before that happened. If he didn’t even have the qualifications to join that battle, then he could only watch

Yu Ke Ran were shocked when they saw him coming back with a woman who was nothing but skin and bones. The main reason was that Sheng Yu Zhu’s current image was too horrible to look at. Even so, they didn’t dare to ask anything and respectfully arranged for Sheng Yu Zhu to be settled in one of the rooms under Yang Kai’s
