Chapter 590: Fate Recession (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
They found the situation in front of them unbelievable. Normally speaking, every time a Sage was born in the Great Wu Empire, it would definitely bring about an increase in fate. Even an ordinary Sage would definitely increase its fate. After all, every time a Sage was born, the entire Great Wu Empire would become stronger.
If there was a huge increase, it meant that this Sage was extremely extraordinary and had extraordinary aptitude. But now that a Sage had been born, not only did its fate not increase, but it even declined.
This was very bizarre.
Under their curiosity, the three Heavenly Kings understood the details of Xiang Zizhen’s breakthrough to the Sage Realm this time. After knowing that the other party had forcefully refined the Nandou Domain by disobeying the prince, they immediately understood why. “Looks like this new Sage has a lot of resentment towards the Great Wu Empire.”
They realized that Xiang Zizhen’s heart was clearly not on the Great Wu Empire’s side. The prince’s actions this time made this new Sage not like the others who were sincerely loyal to the Great Wu Empire.
Therefore, after the other party advanced to the Sage Realm, it did not bring about an increase in the luck of the Great Wu Empire. Instead, it showed a decline. This situation was undoubtedly what the three Heavenly Kings were happy to see.
They were also certain of one thing. It was definitely not Xiang Zizhen who had brought a huge increase to the Great Wu Empire previously. If it was Xiang Zizhen, it was impossible for the Great Wu Empire to have a decline in fate.
Even if Xiang Zizhen’s heart was not in the Great Wu Empire, he still had the mark of the Great Wu Empire on him. As long as he was a member of the Great Wu Empire, after breaking through to the Sage Realm, he would definitely bring about a huge increase in fate.
At most, there would be a slight decrease in the increase in fate.
Unless he removed the Great Wu Empire’s mark on his body and no longer belonged to the Great Wu Empire, it was impossible for its fate to decline as it still brought about a certain increase in fate.
This made the three Heavenly Kings feel a sense of pity. Instead, they hoped that Xiang Zizhen was really the person who had brought a huge improvement to the Great Wu Empire. The Prince had disappointed such an important person. This was undoubtedly what they wanted to see the most.
Unfortunately, they were already certain that Xiang Zizhen was not the person who had brought a huge increase to the Great Wu Empire. This could not help but make the three Heavenly Kings deeply puzzled.
It was not Xiang Zizhen. Then, who was the one who brought the increase in fate with the Great Wu Empire last time?
Apart from the three heavenly kings, the prince was also leading Chen Yuan and Cheng Riyou to observe the fate of the Great Wu Empire. When the prince saw that the fate of the entire Great Wu Empire had actually declined, his expression instantly darkened.
Chen Yuan was also stunned. He knew very well what this scene meant. Logically speaking, now that Xiang Zizhen had broken through to the Sage Realm, the fate of the entire Great Wu Empire would definitely welcome a wave of growth.
In the end, it declined. This clearly showed that this new Sage had a deep grudge against the Great Wu Empire, so much so that even though he was in the Great Wu Empire, his heart did not belong here.
The prince’s eyes were filled with monstrous anger. He did not expect this Xiang Zizhen to not only dare to disobey him, he actually dared to be disloyal!! The prince could still endure Xiang Zizhen’s previous disobedience for many reasons and prepare to settle the score with him later.
Now that the fate of the Great Wu Empire had declined, it was no longer something he could tolerate! Because this clearly showed the other party’s disloyalty!
If not for the restriction of the Great Martial Mark, the other party would probably leave the Great Wu Empire like the three Heavenly Kings back then. No matter how good-tempered a monarch was, this situation would definitely not be tolerated. Moreover, the current prince was a domineering person.
“… Sect Master Chen, how do you think we should deal with this matter?” The prince looked at Chen Yuan. His eyes were cold. There was no longer any trace of the usual gentle smile on his face. He completely removed his disguise and revealed his domineering and cold side. On the surface, he was asking Chen Yuan. In fact, he was expressing his attitude to Chen Yuan.
This Xiang Zizhen had to be rid of! The Great Wu Empire definitely could not tolerate a disloyal Sage.
After Chen Yuan sensed the prince’s attitude, he was also under a lot of pressure. He said in a low voice, “Your Highness, please calm down. With my understanding of Xiang Zizhen, he is definitely not such a person. Even if this matter makes him resentful, he will not be disloyal to the Great Wu Empire. I think… there must be some secrets that we don’t know.”
Chen Yuan felt that the decline of the Great Wu Empire was not because of Xiang Zizhen. There were other reasons. Although Xiang Zizhen’s public disobedience this time was very unexpected, he knew that this was the most outrageous action Xiang Zizhen could do.
Even if Xiang Zizhen had resentment towards the prince, it was not to the extent that he would not be loyal to the Great Wu Empire. But now that the Great Wu Empire’s fate was declining, it was completely pointed at Xiang Zizhen!
Even though Chen Yuan felt that something was amiss, he could not produce any strong evidence.
“At this point, Sect Master Chen, there’s no need to continue protecting him, right? Xiang Zizhen has advanced to the Sage Realm. Not only has our Great Wu Empire’s fortune not increased, but it has also declined. Apart from because he’s not loyal to our Great Wu Empire, what other reason can there be?” Cheng Riyou said coldly.
Chen Yuan ignored Cheng Riyou’s words. He fell into deep thought. He associated this matter with the previous time when the luck of the Great Wu Empire increased exponentially. He felt that these two things were related. Regarding the explosive increment in Great Wu Empire’s fate, he still did not understand what was going on.
“If the person who brought an explosive increase in fate to the Great Wu Empire last time was a mysterious person I don’t know. Then, is the decline in fate now also because of this mysterious person?”
The reason why he made such a connection was mainly because of his understanding of Xiang Zizhen. He did not believe that Xiang Zizhen would not be loyal to the Great Wu Empire because of this matter.
If Xiang Zizhen could not become a Sage, there might be a possibility. But now that he had become a Sage, even if he was resentful and dissatisfied with the prince, it was not to the extent that he would not be loyal to the Great Wu Empire because of this.
“Assuming that the increase in the Great Wu Empire’s fate previously was because a mysterious person joined the Great Wu Empire, then for some reason, this mysterious person is disappointed in the Great Wu Empire now. His heart is no longer on the Great Wu Empire’s side, so the fate of the Great Wu Empire has declined!
“Coincidentally, Xiang Zizhen has become a Sage at this time. The increase in fate brought about by Xiang Zizhen’s advancement to the Sage Realm should not have been able to withstand the decline of this mysterious person’s fate after he no longer pledged loyalty to the Great Wu Empire!
“Therefore, everyone thought that all of this was caused by Xiang Zizhen. In fact, even without Xiang Zizhen advancing to the Sage realm, the fate of the Great Wu Empire will decline, audit will decline even more.”
The more Chen Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was more reliable than Xiang Zizhen’s disloyalty to the Great Wu Empire. However, he did not have sufficient proof to prove his guess.
Under the increasingly unfriendly and cold gaze of the Imperial Prince, Chen Yuan said solemnly before the prince could speak. “Your Highness, please give me some time to investigate this matter thoroughly. If Xiang Zizhen is really not loyal to the Great Wu Empire, there’s no need for anyone else to do anything. I’ll personally clean up the sect!”
The prince looked deeply at Chen Yuan. Although he had a domineering personality, Chen Yuan was the pillar of the current Great Wu Empire, and he now had the Eye of the Emperor Judgment. He could not be too arbitrary when dealing with Chen Yuan.
“I’ll give you a month.
“If you can’t prove Xiang Zizhen’s stand within a month, then bring Xiang Zizhen’s head to see me.” The Prince said coldly.
“Yessir!” Chen Yuan nodded respectfully..
