Chapter 693 - 371: The Nameless Flame (Seeking Monthly Votes)
"Then you are as good as dead."
Sitting beside Bailuo, the Empress of the Far North poured herself a glass of wine and elegantly savored it, "If you take out that miracle now, at least sixty percent of the kings present will become your enemies."
"Even the Supreme Tier Miracle has its limits, if dozens of Masters of Miracles join hands, you would undoubtedly die."
The Supreme Tier is strong, but that strength is relative to who you compare it with.
Miracle, each one is a force capable of prying the world, its quality is beyond question.
Even if Twilight is powerful, can it destroy dozens of miracles? It certainly cannot afford to be enemies with everyone present. Bailuo is very clear about this.
"Uncle?"
Bailuo asked for his Uncle’s opinion in his mind, and the latter replied, "There’s no harm, agree to her terms first and stabilize the situation."
"Alright."
The uncle’s plan was sensible, although Bailuo was not very fond of the domineering Empress of the Far North, as the leader of Yadun, he had to put the overall situation first in diplomacy, personal preferences notwithstanding.
"I agree with you, but I also have conditions."
Bailuo said, "Before our Yadun has accumulated enough strength, you cannot reveal our relationship."
"Oh?"
"You don’t want your opponent to be rubbish, do you?"
Bailuo cut off the Empress’s response and said bluntly, "Yadun needs to develop, we must at least be on par with you in strength, or are you planning to strangle me in the cradle just like you did with my uncle?"
This statement displeased Ygsella, for that decision was a dark part of her past that she could not conceal.
"Agreed, I’ll consent to your terms."
Surprisingly, Ygsella didn’t lose her temper, which caused both Uncle and Bailuo to breathe a sigh of relief.
The most troublesome opponents at the kings’ meeting were her and the Emperor Candidate, but now that both of them were steadied by Bailuo and his senior sister, the matters to come would be much simpler.
"You two, have you reached some sort of agreement?"
The Female Sword Emperor was surprised; she was all prepared for the Empress of the Far North to make a sudden move and to protect Bailuo with all her might.
But who would have thought things would be resolved so easily?
And looking at their cheerful interaction, they even seemed to be enjoying each other’s company a bit.
"Incredible."
The Female Sword Emperor didn’t interact much with Ygsella, but they indeed had a peculiar relationship.
Ygsella wasn’t very old, just over 6000 years, unlike the Empress of the Far North and Feng Wa’er who had existed over ten thousand years ago, the super veterans. She used to roll with the Holy Emperor.
Simply put, the Holy Emperor’s followers once included the Emperor Candidate and Ygsella among other great generals.
But with his retirement, the Supreme Emperor of the North established the Far North Empire with his sister, and the Emperor Candidate inherited the rights of the Holy Emperor, taking charge of the entire Holy Empire.
And the current Female Sword Emperor was actually Ygsella’s substitute; she now occupied the position that the Empress used to hold.
The Female Sword Emperor hadn’t crossed swords with Ygsella, but she had fought with the King of Aolai.
Even though they were both of the Fifth Awakening, miracles themselves have their strengths and weaknesses.
Especially Ygsella, the Female Sword Emperor had heard people say, she wielded the world’s strongest Superior Miracle and was the most formidable among all the Masters of Superior Miracles.
Yet the Empress of the Extreme North, who was like this, was now forming ties with Bailuo.
It must be said, if the Female Sword Emperor hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she would never believe that madwoman could talk so amiably with someone.
"Truly impressive."
Shi Xiyu didn’t fully grasp the significance, but since the Female Sword Emperor said it was impressive, it must be impressive then.
She was just a novice Master of Miracles, the kind without any real say.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ygsella, who was enjoying a meal with Bailuo, stopped her motion, and Uncle, noticing this, felt an uneasy premonition in his heart, ’I have a feeling something unpleasant is about to unfold.’
She shifted her gaze behind Bailuo, and her originally calm expression had become very peculiar.
"What’s the matter?"
Bailuo asked in confusion, but the Empress of the Far North did not pay attention to him, instead staring intently in that direction.
"What is this?"
Ygsella seemed to be asking herself, "I have never felt like this before."
"You’re looking at..."
Bailuo didn’t finish his question, because he sensed his senior sister’s presence as she was walking toward them.
As the Queen of Yatun and proclaimed independent Master of Miracles, his senior sister naturally also had the right to attend the Kings’ Conference.
"What are you?"
Ygsella noticed the senior sister and looked at the woman before her.
"What, what are you?"
This was the first time the senior sister had met Ygsella, but through her judgment, she almost immediately identified the other’s identity: "Are you the Female Emperor of the Extreme North?"
But even for the Empress of the Extreme North, wasn’t this way of speaking a bit too direct?
A thing? Experience tales with Freewebnovel
Was this how one should describe people, or wasn’t it a bit too excessive?
"Miss Ygsella."
Bailuo quickly stepped in front of his senior sister, and he said, "Let me introduce her, this is my wife, Isefia."
The capriciousness of the Female Emperor of the Extreme North, Bailuo witnessed it once again.
But she was extremely powerful, and Yatun truly could not afford to offend her. Even though Bailuo was very uncomfortable with the formality, he still had to endure it.
"Wife?"
"Hah."
Ygsella snorted with laughter. She wasn’t targeting Bailuo, but she confronted the senior sister directly, "It seems I overestimated you, to think you would marry such a ’thing’."
A ’thing’!
Again, that word!
Even Bailuo was getting angry, "Extreme North! State your meaning clearly, what are you implying?"
Time after time, Bailuo backed down, but she first insulted his uncle, then his wife. As a man, if your parents and wife are threatened and you can still remain calm, that’s the real disgrace.
"If you don’t have a reasonable explanation," Bailuo said, "then even if it means declaring war on the Extreme North, our Yatun will absolutely not tolerate such insult!"
"....."
These words were not exchanged in private, Bailuo spoke them out loud for all those present to hear them clearly.
"Are you serious?"
"To go to war with the Extreme North?!"
The Kings were not in favor of war; they too feared that the Miracle Mainland would be shattered in battle, "To fight the Extreme North, to fight with them?"
The crowd was abuzz with conversation, including those who were close to the uncle, who looked at Bailuo with concern, fearing that he truly was walking into a no-win situation.
The Far North Empire was very strong, the top military power in the Miracle World. Even the Eastern Empire wouldn’t dare to say that it could defeat the other in a one-on-one conflict.
Of course, the Far North Empire was not confident of defeating the Eastern Empire either.
But the problem was, Bailuo was not the Eastern Empire; he was just a Miracle Master who had recently emerged.
A mere newcomer dares to challenge such a behemoth as the Extreme North?
Bailuo had just spoken up, not because he was confident in his strength, but he was trying to use the voice of the surrounding Kings to stop whatever the Female Emperor of the Extreme North might do next.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, even Ygsella wouldn’t go as far as to strike directly, right?
What do you think?
