My father has the appearance of an emperor

Chapter 272 Destiny
Jiang Chen was completely speechless.

You said you helped me find a marriage, so this is how matchmaking works?
No, buddy, this is called kidnapping threat, okay?
And I’m panicking now!

My identity is exposed. If the Kingdom of Famit knows that I am your son, will it choose a simpler and more convenient way to get my things back?
It’s okay for a little goblin, but I don’t even have that sealing ring!

Jiang Chen was in a great trouble.

Wait, that’s not right!

If Princess Christiana was forced to marry him, then her previous concern would be unjustifiable.

Well, that makes sense. Maybe she just doesn't want to die and be unable to get the Sealing Ring back.

It was still not right, because if she already knew her identity, why didn't she come directly to me? And she was in contact with my father? There must be other problems, and Bishop Nivette and the others didn't say it.

Especially last time he said it was related to the root cause.

Although he couldn't figure out the reasons behind this, Jiang Chen understood one thing, which was why his father stole things and returned them - he must have done it to practice being a success mentor!

In order to ensure the realization of the prophecy, Dad will try his best to make various attempts.

For example, I predict that someone will play a guessing game, and then I steal his things and tell him that I will return them to you if you play the guessing game.

In this way, the various functions of prediction and wish making are tested.

Through countless rehearsals, my father mastered the application of the success mentor's precepts, which gave rise to various subsequent arrangements. Even the grasp of human nature was gradually understood at this stage.

Old man, you are really awesome! You are also a bastard!
After sorting out his thoughts, Jiang Chen asked, "Is Your Highness the Princess okay now?"

Tilda replied: "We don't know whether she is okay or not, but you, do you have the sealing ring in your hand?"

Jiang Chen shook his head.

The Big Three were not surprised by this.

Lord Kodri grumbled, "That suits him. He always takes every step carefully. How is he now?"

"I went to a place where I might not be able to come back from ... where the secrets of immigration rules are involved."

The three of them exclaimed at the same time: "The Tribunal of Discipline? This is impossible!"

Jiang Chen was also surprised when he heard this term.

The Court of Discipline?

Isn’t that the place where the forbidden money is issued?

Jiang Chen's thoughts had been revolving between the system and the four gods all along. It was not until this moment that he realized that there seemed to be a special existence in this world: the Discipline Tribunal.

"Where is that place?" Jiang Chen asked.

The three giants said in unison: "You don't need to know this."

Dicket interjected: "Federal Reserve?"

Everyone looked at him.

Dicket spread his hands: "The Federal Reserve is the only non-state institution on Blue Star that issues national currency. This is also the name on our banknotes."

it is good!
well said!
This metaphor is awesome!
Nivette sighed: "It seems that we can't expect him to come back alive. I hope he doesn't have the Sealing Ring with him."

Jiang Chen said: "My father made careful arrangements for me. Maybe he left some clues about the seal ring, so I must complete every step he gave me."

Tilda said helplessly: "Then we can only hope that the Flame Sect's affairs will not conflict with the mission... If there is a conflict, you can prioritize completing your father's mission."

That's good.

Jiang Chen asked, "Any other questions?" Nivette asked, "Do you know the Clock of Destiny?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "What is that?"

Tilda: "An item related to destiny, located in the sealed place of the Elemental Continent. Not long ago, His Holiness the Pope said that the Bell of Destiny appeared, and someone is using it to activate the power of prophecy, but we don't know who it is. We checked all the people who might have been there and took the Bell of Destiny away from there, and your father was one of them."

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up: "What does it do?"

"If someone possesses a prophecy-like ability, using it can amplify the effect, or even bargain with fate."

Jiang Chen suppressed the violent beating of his heart and looked calm on the surface: "Oh, I don't know if my father has this ability. To be honest, I don't know him at all. But even if it is so, it shouldn't matter, right?"

Nivette shook his head. "It matters a lot. Do you know what fate is?"

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized something: "God's will?"

Nivette smiled: "Yes, it's God's will!"

Kodry added: "Many people believe that the will on the Clock of Destiny is most likely the system of the Chaos Realm. That is the closest existence to the system. Communication with the Clock of Destiny is, in a sense, direct communication with the system!"

Isn't that the championship trophy?

The only difference is that the trophy is disposable, but the Clock of Destiny is not.

"Then why do you want to seal it up?" Jiang Chen was puzzled.

"Because we are fighting against God's will!" Tilda replied: "Don't you understand yet? Everything in Chaos Realm is closely related to the system. This world cannot continue to be in chaos. It brings us great pain."

As she spoke, she suddenly stretched out her arm and stretched it in front of Jiang Chen: "Look at this!"

Jiang Chen saw that several thick blood vessels on Tilda's arm were wriggling like earthworms, as if they were alive. Suddenly, a wild will rushed into Jiang Chen's mind. Under the pressure of huge fear, Jiang Chen felt severe pain.

The pain came from his body.

It's the evil demon!
It twisted wildly, and countless blurry lights flashed before his eyes. The twisted will permeated his body and mind, making him want to wail in pain. However, what was even more terrifying was the twisted will, which made him feel as if he was in a bottomless abyss, wanting to degenerate into a dark bastard creature.

This double distortion of body and mind brought such intense pain that it tortured him to the point of almost going crazy.

"That's enough!" Nivert shouted.

His hand fell on Jiang Chen's forehead, and a holy power surged into his body and mind, washing away everything in Jiang Chen's body.

The little evil demon screamed sharply inside Jiang Chen's body.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Cordrey's huge face facing him.

In the roughest tone, speaking the softest words: "Now, do you feel our pain?"

Jiang Chen opened his mouth wide, unable to speak for a moment.

Yes, he felt it.

That feeling of endless disaster brought about by the parasitism of demons.

What is death?
That kind of boundless depravity is far more terrifying than death, as if being in an endless purgatory!

And one day, you won't be able to bear it anymore and eventually degenerate into a demon!
That's what people here fear.

Tilda held Jiang Chen's face and looked him straight in the eyes: "If your father gets the Clock of Destiny, he might continue to use it and help the system continue to deteriorate the world. This must be stopped. Do you understand?"

Jiang Chen looked at her in a daze.

After a while, he said, "Do you understand God's will? Are you sure it's the one who did all this?"
