Emperor Dale's face darkened. But he still remained calm and asked the Heavenly World Tree, "Your Grace, is that true that you have already chosen the fortunate one?"
The emperor wanted this to be a lie. After all, they came from a faraway place and it'd be an utter loss if they couldn't make it, it wasn't something he didn't want to happen. After all, their empire was suffering a significant loss these days.
The Heavenly World Tree didn't answer immediately and the emperor waited patiently. After a while, the tree finally spoke, "Indeed, the fortunate one has been chosen. So I advise everyone to leave now, though I'm very happy that you all want my blessing."
Many sighed in disappointment after hearing this. Since the fortunate one had been chosen, they had no reason to stay here any longer. They would be shaming themselves by staying here. After that, many leave in depressed states.
"This..." Emperor Dale was still stumped despite expecting this answer. It seemed that it's going to be a great loss and he couldn't do something about it. But, he was the emperor. How could he let this be a loss? "I heard that the blessing can be transferred, Your Grace."

"Indeed, that man is right." The Heavenly World Tree has also advices. It didn't want a bloodbath here, "There will be next time as long as there is still a life. You can grab your opportunity next time."
"Your Grace, we need your blessing so I need to do this." Emperor Dale sighed, "Our ancestor is greatly injured because of a tribulation and we need your opportunity to heal him. After all, your power is the only magical and has the capabilities to heal that kind of wound."
"Unfortunately, you missed the opportunity this time. I have already given my assistance in this era and you should wait for the next time I appear." The Heavenly World Tree was helpless in this too. After all, its power was only limited to one person and even the tree itself couldn't do something about it.
Emperor Dale wanted to say something but the void suddenly shook, then a figure appeared. It was an old man with a dying aura surrounding him. It felt like his one foot was already buried down the grave. Nevertheless, he still had the menacing aura that he used to have.
"Ancestor..." The emperor didn't expect that the ancestor would come out unannounced. He was injured and had countless enemies, who knows how many people present held a grudge against the ancestor?
"Say no more. Let me handle this." Soulcaster waved his hand off which the emperor immediately obeyed. Since it's the will of the ancestor, he had no choice but to follow it.
Ancestor Soulcaster stepped forward and looked at the giant Heavenly World Tree. He bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, Your Grace. I have old bones now so I am not able to bow properly."
"Soulcaster, my words will not be different even if you come into being. I have given the chance now and there's nothing I can do about it." The Heavenly World Tree spoke with a tinge of annoyance. What's there that they couldn't understand that its blessing was no longer available?
"Your Grace, I'm aware. I just want to know who is the fortunate one who got your blessing." Ancestor Soulcaster was beaming with smile. However, there were countless schemes in the making in his mind. Of course, how could he leave this place with no fruits? Itshould not be the case, not today.
There was no response from the tree which agitated the ancestor a bit but he didn't react and was patiently waiting. After all, even if he run amok here, the tree wouldn't care about him.
"It's me." Just when the ancestor wanted to ask once again, a figure appeared descending. He had the handsomeness that could fill the world with hope, save the distress from the despair. If Grand Honor was a beauty of a man containing ferociousness, this man's beauty was containing gentleness like the flowing lotus on the river.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAncestor Soulcaster widened his eyes upon seeing the person. Though this was the first time they met, he heard of his scary feats after coming in this world!
"Feng Lin's successor..." Ancestor Soulcaster was flabbergasted. This was the unfortunate of the unfortunate! "No, Universal Law Whitemoon..."
"Universal Law Whitemoon... I like the dao title." Jin Rou chuckled after hearing this. He felt stronger and lighter than the previous. He could clearly see the sides and hidden places of this world and could solve mysteries that remained unsolved in the history.
Whitemoon was the dao title that had been given by the masses for Jin Rou after saving the empire and it was approved by the Phoenix Empire, making it the official dao title of Jin Rou. Thus, everyone knew this name.
"Daoist Friend, it seems like you have gotten to new heights once again..." Soulcaster heard that Jin Rou had merged two legacies successfully which enabled him to defeat three laws and many supremes. The empires and kingdoms in cahoots were punished severely and their losses couldn't be recovered for a long time, suffering an instant declination.
"That's true. It's because of the Heavenly World Tree's blessing this time." Jin Rou chuckled. He appeared casual yet he was beaming with happiness inside. After all, he successfully merged three laws in his body, making him the virtually strongest existence of humanity.
Even Emperor Randies and Athena were surprised to witness this. A miracle of all greatest miracles of the world and realms. The providence of Jin Rou was overflowing that it wouldn't let him fail.
Jin Rou looked at Soulcaster and smiled, "I heard that you want to know who is the fortunate one. I'm now here, do you need something?"
Hearing that, Ancestor Soulcaster's mouth twitched. Even if he did need something, how could he say it outright? Wouldn't he just commit suicide if that's the case?
