"Why are you recruiting me, and why am I the thirteenth Emperor? If I remember correctly, you should be the tenth?"

Wang Wei raised his hand to condense a talisman with a bunch of information.

Although he could directly input them into her mind, he still showed her respect, not only because of their former friendship but because of her accomplishments.

Dong Lifen took the talisman and used her Divine Sense to review everything.

"Nine Emperor Curse, Immeasurable Emperor, Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly Court, Twelve Emperor Curse, Balance Mechanism."

As she muttered these key terms, she began to look at Wang Wei with a little bit more awe. Previously, she only thought he was a powerful Eternal Emperor but did not care much. With her current strength, she had absolute confidence to prove the Dao and also become an Eternal.

But now, she understood that her old friend's achievements were even more legendary than hers.

"I guess I should not be surprised since it's coming from you."

She was no longer than the ignorant little girl they met. Over the years, she has traveled far and wide and knew how unique many of Wang Wei's ideas and thoughts were. So, she's not that surprised that someone like that would create miracles and wonders during his cultivation journey.

Dong Lifen took a moment to think about the entire situation, "I owe you and the Dao Opening Sect a great karma for saving my life and taking care of my master."

Although she had not seen her master in nearly a million years, she still remembered her, and Dong Lifen considered her one of the few people close to her heart. As the saying goes, a master-disciple relationship is as strong as any daughter and mother.

"However, it's not enough to just join you.

So, what can you offer me?"

Wang Wei took a sip of his tea; he was not surprised by her words. With Dong Lifen's current achievements, few things could interest her. So, things that any Emperor Lineage could offer, like resources, unique techniques, backup protection, or secret knowledge, she can acquire all of them after proving the Dao.

"It depends on what you want," replied Wang Wei. "What is your pursuit? Do you want to continue the Great Xia Dynasty or have other goals?"

Dong Lifen did not answer him immediately. She looked in the distance, her eyes overseeing the entire dynasty. In an instant, she saw the lives of countless citizens.

"For a long time, I was obsessed with the dynasty, believing it was my duty to make sure it prospers," she uttered in a soft voice.

"However, what happened, I realizedI had long accomplished that goal. Even worse, my ambitions and greed often led my

people to danger."

"So, you've let go?"

"You could say that."

"So, what are you pursuing now?"

"I just want to be happy," she replied calmly.

Wang Wei swirled his tea before taking a sip.

"A simple goal, but not easily achieved."

"Yes," agreed Dong Lifen, looking him in the eyes. "The cultivation world is cruel. Even if I step out from the world, at any moment, someone could come to ruin my happiness."

"So, you need strength to protect your happiness."

Wang Wei resonated with that sentiment; his desire is only to be free from all constraints and fetters. However, his desire opposed the very nature of society, which is full of rules and regulations. So, even back on Earth, his goal could not be fulfilled, let alone the cultivation world that is a million times more complex.

"Do you know the realms after the Great Emperor?" asked Wang Wei.

"I don't," admitted Dong Lifen; one of her weaknesses was her lack of background, so she did not have access to such information. However, it did not matter since changing the situation was one of her agenda after proving the Dao.

"At Tier 11, there are normal Empyreans who can create world and life with a wave of their hands, followed by Everlasting Empyreans who understand their [True Self] and escape the shackles of reincarnation.

"Tier 12, there are Paragons and Boundless Paragons. I don't know much, but in this realm, these beings treat the River of Time like their back garden, and the influence of fate on them reaches the lowest level possible."

Dong Lifen took a moment to savor these words. She could fathom how powerful these realms were just by the short description. So, her eyes showed a look of desire.

"Do you think this is the end?" continued Wang Wei. "Paragons used to be the rulers of the universe until my Ancestor did some world-changing events in the upper

dimension, bringing the world the realm of Half-Step Transcendence."

"Transcendence," muttered Dong Lifen. As she uttered these words, she immediately felt the power contained in them; she had a feeling that all sentient beings, all cultivators, should pursue that single word.

Wang Wei secretly smiled when he saw her reaction, "If you want to protect your happiness, you need strength. I will admit the Dao Opening Sect cannot give you much help in the lower dimension.

However, it's another thing after you ascend.

"After your experience, you should understand how much easier cultivation can be with the correct background."
