Chapter 1054 Dragon Gate

1054 Dragon Gate

Ao Shen walked into the throne room and saluted as usual. With his [Awakening], Dao Will, Will Manifestation, and a Bloodline Ability that turned into a Source Technique, he has achieved 3-Peak Battle Fold, and that will increase after refining his unique Proving Dao Artifact and using the remaining merit he has to increase his cultivation. However, he knew such strength was useless before this man.

"What can I do for you, your majesty?"

"I call you here for two reasons," stated Wang Wei. "Firstly, I need to know whether the demon race will stay in the Myriad Emperor World or if you plan to leave to set up your own rule somewhere else."

"Do you want us to leave?" asked Ao Shen instead of answering.

"I don't care what choice you make, I just need to know which one it is so I can prepare beforehand."

Ao Shen frowned, wondering whether these words were a threat. By his deduction, Wang Wei had no need to do such a thing, but he could not help thinking of the worse. He observed for a few seconds but could not find any information from the latter's bland and calm expression.

"The Myriad Emperor World is as much our home as any humans," replied the Primal Darkness Dragon Emperor. "We have fought and contributed to this world despite how humans repay us every time. So, no, we do not plan to leave our home."

Ao Shen never thought of leaving; otherwise, he would have done so long ago. He considered this place as much his home as the human race despite all the misfortunes and mistreatments they've suffered. Additionally, Ao Shen's greatest wish is one day, his kind will become the protagonist of this world, so leaving was never an option.

"That's good to hear," nodded Wang Wei, who chose not to comment on the latter's passionate speech about the demon race's plight. Was the human race wrong? Of course. It has been so long since the Golden Ape Emperor's appearance, and to this day, many people still use that excuse to justify their cruelty toward the demon race.

After knowing that the Golden Ape Emperor was nothing but a pawn of the Human Emperor, the human race's actions were more than just cruel and excessive. Unfortunately, he was still a human and needed to see many things from this point of view. In the cultivation world where individual power is outrageous, and the importance of resources can determine a species's existence, things like peaceful co-existence between two different races - especially those of opposing cultures, views, and diets - are nothing but a pipedream.

So far, his reign has achieved a great balance between the human and demon races. He never belittled them, raised them from the ground, treated them relatively fairly, or tried to oppress them. But this cannot be said for his successor.

"The second topic is I wonder if you'll be interested in being an Ambassador to the sealed Innate Lifeforms," asked Wang Wei.

"Them?"

"Yes. It should be about time that I released them, and I thought you might be the person to introduce them to the world and help them acclimate."

Ao Shen did not immediately give an answer. Although he was an Innate Demon, he never truly considered himself one of them. He was a bloodline miracle of the demon race, so he identified with them and considered them his kin. But that did not change the fact that his bloodline was no longer a demon.

'I need only consider the benefits, not the personal aspect of this move,' thought Ao Shen. 'It's impossible to convince these creatures to join the side of the demon race.'

He knew how arrogant his kind were just because they were born from Heaven and Earth. So, even if these new ones aren't as arrogant because of the era, some things are innate, and for the Innate Demons, arrogance was one of these traits.

'Being the Ambassador is an opportunity to form an alliance with the returned Innate Demons.' Whether the alliance was military or economic, the demon race would benefit.

"I accept the position," replied Ao Shen.

"That's good to hear," nodded Wang Wei. "I will lower the restrictions in their seal; they should regain their consciousness and mobility but still cannot leave their Small World."

He waved his hand to give him a talisman.
