Chapter 10: Offering the Primordial Purple Qi – Emperor Jun and Taiyi’s Elation

Despite his initial scolding, Emperor Jun’s fondness for Xia Tian was evident. He deeply cherished his ten Golden Crow offspring. After all, it was their slaughter by Houyi that had led to the catastrophic war between the demon and witch clans, leaving both sides devastated.

Xia Tian stepped forward and said, “Father, I have something of great importance to report.”

Emperor Jun, momentarily taken aback, replied, “What is it?”

Glancing around at the numerous demon clan leaders present, Xia Tian hesitated. “This is not the place to discuss it.”

While Emperor Jun initially dismissed his son’s insistence, Xia Tian’s resolve piqued his curiosity. “Very well, wait until our current discussions are complete.”

With a slight bow, Xia Tian stepped aside, listening intently as the court deliberated strategies to claim Hongyun’s Primordial Purple Qi.

The assembly debated for hours. Emperor Jun and Taiyi, alongside their advisors, meticulously planned their ambush. Xia Tian, standing silently, couldn’t help but reflect on the significance of the Purple Qi. He recognised it as part of Hongjun’s schemes. Even if his father and uncle succeeded in defeating Hongyun, they might never truly gain possession of the treasure.

Finally, after three hours, Emperor Jun dismissed the council. “Prepare the formation and be ready to act tomorrow,” he instructed.

As the court emptied, only Emperor Jun, Taiyi, and Xia Tian remained in the Lingxiao Palace. Emperor Jun turned to his son.

“Now, tell me what’s so important,” he said, his tone less stern.

Xia Tian glanced around the grand hall. “Father, are you certain no one can spy on us here?”

Both Emperor Jun and Taiyi chuckled. Emperor Jun replied, “In this palace, not even a saint can peer in without alerting us.”

Reassured, Xia Tian nodded. With a wave of his hand, a violet light materialised.

The moment the light appeared, the entire palace seemed to resonate with an indescribable aura. Emperor Jun and Taiyi felt an unmistakable saintly presence, momentarily convinced that a saint had descended.

Their eyes widened as they identified the object in Xia Tian’s hand: Primordial Purple Qi.@@novelbin@@

“Impossible!” Emperor Jun exclaimed, his voice trembling.

Taiyi, equally shocked, stood abruptly, his Chaos Bell ringing out in response.

Holding the glowing violet aura, Xia Tian spoke calmly. “Father, this is indeed Primordial Purple Qi, a treasure I acquired by chance. I offer it to you, so that you may ascend to sainthood and lead the demon clan to glory.”

Without hesitation, Xia Tian handed the Qi to Emperor Jun. The usually composed ruler struggled to contain his excitement, his hands trembling as he accepted the priceless gift.

“This is indeed Primordial Purple Qi,” Emperor Jun murmured, his voice heavy with disbelief.

Moments later, his joy overflowed. “Excellent! You are truly my son, the hope of our demon clan and Heavenly Court!”

Both Emperor Jun and Taiyi were moved beyond words. This act of selflessness—sacrificing a treasure capable of elevating oneself to sainthood—was extraordinary.

For a fleeting moment, they wondered if they could have done the same. The answer was clear.

The rarity of such altruism struck them deeply. It solidified Xia Tian’s position not just as a dutiful son but as the cornerstone of the Heavenly Court’s future.
