82: This time, the King of Qin wants to destroy the country!
...
At the Chen Family Courtyard.
Chen Sheng, dressed in white, frowned slightly.
Just now, the five divine powers within her body simultaneously experienced an anomaly.
Immediately after, the originally surging divine power inexplicably weakened considerably.
"What's going on?"
Her expression changed slightly, and her eyes held a hint of confusion.
This weakening of divine power didn't stem from a diminished control over it, but rather from an abnormality within the divine power itself.
A tall figure suddenly flashed through Chen Sheng's mind.
Then, she abruptly stood up, a trace of unease flashing in her eyes.
Just then, Chen Qingyue walked out from the side, his expression grave.
"Grandpa?"
Chen Sheng spoke.
"Sheng'er, notify everyone to convene a family meeting."
Chen Qingyue said in a deep voice.
...
Not long after.
Chen Family Courtyard, Council Hall.
After everyone had arrived.
Chen Qingyue sat in the main seat, his expression gloomy, and slowly said, "The King of Qin has ordered me to enter the palace."
"The duration of this visit to the palace is uncertain. While I am away, the Chen family will be temporarily managed by Chen Qiao. Do any of you have objections?"
"Enter the palace?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances, seemingly surprised.
They had no objection to Chen Qiao temporarily managing the Chen family; Chen Qiao was Chen Sheng's father and an Eight Revolutions expert himself, so no one was more qualified to manage the Chen family.
However, Chen Qingyue's current entry into the palace left them somewhat puzzled.
After a long pause, a tall middle-aged man spoke:
"Uncle Yue, we have no objection to the temporary management, but has something major happened for the King of Qin to suddenly summon you to the palace this time?"
Chen Qiao also frowned and asked, "Father, is there something important about this visit to the palace?"
Chen Qingyue's gaze swept over everyone, and he slowly said, "The Divine Seed has died, and the King of Qin is enraged. This return to the palace is to confront the Ten Kingdoms directly."
"The Divine Seed has died?"
Everyone looked puzzled.
Chen Sheng, however, suddenly looked up at Chen Qingyue, her heart uncontrollably pounding like a drum.
Sensing Chen Sheng's gaze, Chen Qingyue nodded gently and said, "The Divine Seed is the designated person for this Heaven's Pride Tower."
"Sky Book Taoist once calculated that in this national war, without the Divine Seed, Great Qin might face the danger of collapse."
"Now, with the national war about to begin, the Divine Seed has been assassinated. The King of Qin is already enraged. Not just me, but all Nine Revolutions will be recalled."
Without the Divine Seed, Great Qin might face the danger of collapse in the national war?
Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately alarmed, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
Chen Qiao's gaze was solemn as he looked at Chen Qingyue:
"Father, is the King of Qin going to demand accountability this time?"
"Demanding accountability is meaningless."
Chen Qingyue gently shook his head and slowly said, "The national war hasn't started yet, and the Ten Kingdoms are not a united front!"
"The King of Qin intends to annihilate a nation this time."
...
The meeting ended, and Chen Qingyue headed directly towards the Imperial Palace.
Chen Sheng walked out of the Council Hall, looked up at the sky, and gazed at the firmament.
Chen Qiao walked up to her, looked at Chen Sheng, and asked, "Sheng'er, do you have something to say?"
He had long noticed the unusual expression on Chen Sheng's face; she seemed to have other opinions regarding the matter of the Divine Seed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng withdrew her gaze and turned it towards Chen Qiao.
After a moment of silence, her eyes were calm as she softly said, "He's still alive. He will never die!"
...
Shanhai City, Fang Family.
"King of Qin's summons?!"
Fang Jingshan looked surprised as he gazed at his father.
Fang Lu nodded gently, his body aged but radiating intense battle intent.
"The Ten Kingdoms have been audacious, so Great Qin must respond."
"If this old body can do something more for Great Qin, I will have no regrets, even if I die."
...
Starry Sky Great Wall.
Two towering figures stood indifferently, their gazes cold, exuding terrifying aura.
In the distance from them were endless Otherworldly Beingss, separated by the Starry Sky Great Wall, watching from afar, not daring to step closer.
Suddenly, their expressions subtly changed as they simultaneously received the recall message.
Seeing this, the two exchanged glances.
Immediately, without any hesitation, they moved and instantly vanished from above the Starry Sky Great Wall.
