This is the true immortal of the Taoist sect.

Upon hearing her say this, Di Hao immediately revealed a satisfied smile.

Unexpectedly, Nangong Yue immediately turned to Li Daoxuan and asked:

"Master Li, I don't want to join the Heavenly Realm either. Can...can I continue to follow you?"

Di Hao's expression froze as he looked at Li Daoxuan, and for some reason, he suddenly felt as if his own precious cabbage had been eaten by a pig.

Li Daoxuan smiled helplessly upon hearing this.

"Nangong, given your current situation, refusing these two clans might make things difficult..."

Li Daoxuan didn't beat around the bush; he directly stated her current predicament.

As someone who possesses both the Heavenly Emperor's bloodline and the Hongyu bloodline, if Nangong Yue rejects both clans, she will definitely not be able to leave Tianxiang City.

Even if Li Daoxuan can take her away from Tianxiang City, they will inevitably face endless pursuit from now on.

This is not a good thing for Nangong Yue.

What she needs now is time to grow.

With the bloodlines of two great emperors successfully fused, given time, Nangong Yue is very likely to break the stalemate of no great emperor being born for ten thousand years.

Even if she doesn't become an emperor in the future, she will at least be a martial god at the perfect realm.

When that time comes, she will naturally be able to control her own destiny.

Therefore, it seems that having Nangong Yue join the Heavenly Court or the Hongyu Imperial Clan would be a good choice.

These two clans will definitely not mistreat her.

Nangong Yue quickly understood Li Daoxuan's meaning. Although she was somewhat disappointed, she could still understand.

Seeing her hesitate, Di Hao immediately spoke:

"Don't worry, young lady. There's no rush to take revenge. As long as you're willing to join my Heavenly Court, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Qianye Supreme's expression darkened.

"Young lady, the Hongyu Imperial Clan will definitely not treat you unfairly. The clan will surely give you a satisfactory explanation regarding your matter with Xingluo."

The young man named Xingluo and Venerable Zhenyue both changed their expressions upon hearing this.

It is clear that Supreme Chiba intends to give up on Starfall.

"Elder, you mustn't..."

"Shut up..."

Before Venerable Zhenyue could speak, he was angrily stopped by Supreme Qianye.

In the eyes of Supreme Lord Chiba, Venerable Zhenyue was far too shallow.

Those who possess the bloodline of an emperor will almost certainly become perfect quasi-emperors with nine imperial markings in the future.

He might even be able to break through to the Great Emperor realm.

Compared to such a clansman with boundless potential, what is an outstanding disciple?

If he could, he would be willing to give up even Chiba's life.

What Qianye Supreme didn't expect was that Nangong Yue responded coldly after hearing his words:

"So the Hongyu Imperial Clan can sacrifice their own members without hesitation for profit. I dare not join such a cold-blooded family..."

Upon hearing this, Chiba's expression changed drastically, and his eyes became extremely terrifying.

Not far away, Di Hao pursed his lips, suppressing a laugh, feeling extremely happy.

This girl is just what he wants.

If possible, perhaps I could take her as my apprentice.

Although if it were him, he would not hesitate to abandon his clan disciples in exchange for a successor with the potential to become an emperor.

But since Chiba has already said something so outrageous, he's definitely not going to fall into that trap again.

"Don't worry, young lady. My Heavenly Court Imperial Clan is extremely protective of its own and would never abandon its own people for personal gain. As long as you join my Heavenly Court, from this day forward, no one in the Three Domains and Nine Provinces of this Xuanhuang Great World will dare to bully you..."

Nangong Yue turned to look at Di Hao and asked:

"What if someone from your Heavenly Court clan did something wrong?"

Di Hao was taken aback upon hearing this, and suddenly felt a headache coming on.

Nangong Yue pouted and said without hesitation:

"So the Heavenly Court is a place where right and wrong are indiscriminate, and they tolerate the mistakes of their own disciples without doing anything about it... I'm not going there..."

"Ha ha ha ha..."

As soon as Nangong Yue finished speaking, Qianye Supreme, who had just been humiliated, burst into laughter.

This time, it was Di Hao's turn to look frustrated.

But he wasn't angry; instead, he smiled and shook his head, saying:

"What a sharp-tongued girl! So, according to you, you're not choosing either race? Then why did you go through all that trouble to come to Celestial Elephant City and participate in the Heavenly Pride Gathering?"

Nangong Yue was stunned, as if she had just realized that she originally wanted to compete for those three spots, then go to the Heavenly Domain to improve her cultivation, so that she could avenge her master in the future.

Now that the enemy is right in front of us, it seems that revenge will not be easy.

Nangong Yue was momentarily at a loss and subconsciously turned to look at Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan smiled and said gently:

"Where you are doesn't really matter. What matters is that you know who you are, what you want to do, and what kind of person you want to become in the future. That's enough."

At this point, Li Daoxuan paused for a moment, then lowered his voice, his tone full of lighthearted humor.

"We can simply choose an imperial family and plunder all the good stuff. It doesn't seem like a bad deal, right?"

Nangong Yue's eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously.

"Mmm, I won't lose out, I won't lose out..."

Not far away, both Emperor Hao and Supreme Qianye wore speechless expressions.

"Master Daoxuan, I heard that..."

Li Daoxuan laughed and ignored him, instead asking Nangong Yue:

"Alright, it's time to choose. Who do you pick?"

Nangong Yue took a deep breath, her gaze shifting back and forth between Di Hao and Qianye Supreme.

Just as she was about to make her choice, a commotion suddenly came from the Heavenly Gate behind her.

Inside the Heavenly Gate, strange runes appeared in the void.

The runes pulsed, revealing a void passage.

Strangely, the passage led not to the Heavenly Road behind the Heavenly Gate, but to a seemingly ordinary valley.

In the middle of the valley stands a stone house, which looks like a very simple dwelling built by hunters in the mountains to rest.

However, when the three supreme beings of the Hongyu Imperial Clan saw this house, their expressions changed drastically. They then knelt down without hesitation, their expressions filled with excitement:

"Chiba pays respects to the Ancestor..."

Seeing the three supreme beings in such a state, Venerable Zhenyue seemed to realize what the stone building meant, and for a moment he was so excited that he trembled all over and could not control himself.

"Zhenyue pays respects to the Ancestor..."

Although the other disciples did not know who was inside the stone building, they naturally dared not be negligent when they saw that several supreme beings and venerable ones were performing such a grand ceremony.

"Disciple pays respects to the Ancestor..."

Di Hao's expression changed slightly. His usual composure and calmness disappeared, and his eyes became more serious.

"Emperor Hao of the Heavenly Court greets Senior..."

Li Daoxuan stared at the stone building inside the void passage, his primordial spirit pounding uncontrollably.

He actually sensed the aura of the Great Dao, which represented the power of the laws of heaven and earth, and was almost a Dao itself.

"The Great Emperor? No... there are no more Great Emperors in this world."

"So who exactly is this person?"
