Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

81 Chapter 81: We are willing

The Celestial Palace Master brought the lifeless body of his son with him.

His son's body was lying on the ground in the place where all the core members of the Celestial Palace used to be buried. However, the man still couldn't bring him up to bury his son.

He sat on his knees, facing the lifeless body of his son. Even though he didn't show much reaction previously in front of everyone else, but now that he was all alone, his eyes were wet, and bloodshot.

He was constantly blaming himself for his son's death, thinking that he could've protected his son if he had been more careful.

He reached out and gently caressed his son's hair, muttering silent apologies that he knew could never be heard. The man stayed by his son's side all night, unwilling to leave him alone in the dark.

Even though the Eternal Emperor and the others were waiting for him in this time of emergency, it was as if he had completely forgotten about that entirely.

It was only after a long time, that he finally closed his eyes, preparing to bury his son.

****

It was early in the morning when the Celestial Palace Master left the place where his son's body was buried, his heart heavy with grief.

He knew he had to return to his duties. He had lost his son, but his daughter was still alive! Moreover, the future of the Celestial Palace rested on his shoulders. He couldn't lose himself now.

As he stepped out of the Solace Mountain, he could feel the eyes of the palace guards on him, but he didn't acknowledge their presence. Instead, he made his way to the Main Palace where the guests were supposed to be waiting.

He knew that the Eternal Emperor wasn't going to be angry because of his delays. For people like them who had lived such a long life, a single night was nothing.

When he reached the main place, he could see the look of relief in the eyes of all the Elders, who had been worried all night. The Eternal Emperor and the strongest warriors of the Eternal Dynasty were inside the Main Palace after all.

"Don't worry. I'll take care of everything," the Celestial Palace Master commented, clenching his fists tightly. "The ones who made us suffer... I'll make sure that they'll regret messing with the Celestial Palace, even if I have to turn the entire world upside down!"

As he spoke, he looked in a particular direction, that happened to be the one where the Qin Dynasty was at.

****

Back in the Qin Dynasty, Qin Ye was sitting comfortably on his throne with a glass of wine in his hand.

There was an amused smirk on his lips, as if he was quite pleased. Even though he was upset when he found out that his plan to kill Xu Shan had failed. However, his second plan had succeeded.

He had prevented Xu Shan from killing the Saintess. He just received the information that his people had successfully taken the Saintess from the Celestial Palace, while also leaving some clues to make it appear that Xu Shan was behind the disappearance.

Now he just had to watch the chaos unfold.

Qin Ye took another sip of his wine, as if the wine tasted even sweeter than it usually did.

"I don't know how you managed to spoil my previous plans. However, when you go against destiny, you'll always fail, Little Prince."

Qin Ye was in the best of his moods. Usually, everything went according to his plan ever since he received the Book of Destiny. He had won the Qin Dynasty's throne even when he wasn't anywhere in the race for the crown initially.

He had taken care of all the rebels and solved all the problems that were impossible to solve according to others. He had even gained the title of a Genius Tactician. However, there was only one time when he had lost... And it was when he went against Xu Shan. That had hurt his ego.

However, finally he felt that things were back on this track.

"You really thought you could stand against me? I'm the hero of this story, little prince. You're only fated to be a stepping stone in my journey. And I won't let anything change that, especially not the resistance of a little ant like you..."

With a calm smile on his face, he brought out the Book of Destiny, thinking of peeking at the changed future once again to see the future downfall of the Eternal Dynasty.

He opened the Book of Destiny, which immediately took away more of his remaining lifespan. However, he didn't care.

Unfortunately, as he saw the future, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, changing into a heavy frown. His fists tightened.

"Impossible! Just why is he still..."

The future he had hoped for was not what he saw. The Eternal Dynasty was not going to fall as easily as he thought. Instead, the future that he saw was the same as before... Where the Celestial Palace attacked the Qin Dynasty. The only difference was that the attack came even sooner.

"Arghh!" His rageful roar echoed in the entire Royal Palace, which even alerted his Shadow Guards.

They had rarely seen their Emperor this angry! The person who was like a god to them with everything under his control was roaring like a wild beast in rage.

The Shadow Guards quickly assembled outside his chamber and waited for his command.

Qin Ye took a deep breath and composed himself before ordering them to summon his Generals for an emergency meeting.

Instead of becoming better, things had simply gotten way worse at this point. They had no other choice but to go to war, and win this war, crushing everyone just like they crushed the rebels in the past.

"Also deliver the message to the Sky Dynasty!" Qin Ye exclaimed. "Tell them that we are willing to work with them!"
