Chapter 893
The Golden Hall of the Tongxuan Imperial Palace.
The incarnation phantom of Emperor Dongxuan sat high on the throne, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the desk in front of him, his slightly lowered brows representing the unhappiness in his heart.
At this very moment, several close ministers of the central government all lowered their heads and eyes, not daring to say much.
Especially since True Person Tianfa, the head of the close ministers, did not speak, they dared not speak even more.
Not to mention that True Person Tianfa had strong personal abilities and understood the Emperor's heart very well; now that the Emperor was in a bad mood, if he didn't speak, no one dared to say anything more.
After a long while, Emperor Dongxuan, who had been thinking with lowered brows, spoke. "Tianfa, it has been so long, is there still no Emperor who has volunteered to go?"
In the inquiry, there was a slight hint of anger.
Previously, after the warning from the Purple Extreme Heavenly Official of the Great Luo Ancestral Court, Emperor Kongyuan, Emperor Chiyang, Emperor Guicang of the Star Ruins Tongxuan Battle Zone, and True Person Tianfa, who held the responsibility of inspection, discussed and requested reinforcements for the Tongxuan Battle Zone.
The reasons were very sufficient.
The early stage of a Star Calamity is the season with the most abundant harvest. If this opportunity can be grasped to rapidly strengthen the power of the Tongxuan Battle Zone, this Star Calamity might not be a crisis for the Tongxuan Domain, but an opportunity.
This plan coincided with Emperor Dongxuan's thoughts.
He rose precisely because of the last Star Calamity, so he naturally understood that a Star Calamity is both a crisis and an opportunity.
The general strategy was set, but there were some problems in the execution of the details.
The opinion of Emperor Kongyuan, the commander of the Tongxuan Battle Zone, was to support more True Persons, but True Person Tianfa believed that several Emperors should be sent from the Star River World.
Firstly, Emperors have the power to settle the situation; if there are Emperors sitting in the front-line Star Islands, it is easier to quickly obtain resources and Star Realm fragments in the early stages of the Star Calamity to strengthen the Star Islands.
Secondly, sending Emperors from the Star River World is conducive to strengthening control.
This second suggestion scratched the itch that Emperor Dongxuan had never spoken of but had always been doing.
As far as the Tongxuan Battle Zone is concerned, it cannot do without Emperor Kongyuan.
It's fine in normal times, but once a Star Calamity arrives, Emperor Kongyuan is afraid...
So Emperor Dongxuan immediately agreed to True Person Tianfa's proposal and began to execute it.
That is to vigorously support the Star Ruins Tongxuan Battle Zone.
Of course, the ostensible reason is to allow Emperor Kongyuan, the commander, to fight a wealthy war; not only must True Persons be supported to go, but Emperors must also be supported to go.
What could Emperor Kongyuan say?
He could only welcome it with both hands.
But this support encountered obstacles at the level of the Star River World.
True Persons are easy to talk about; a single mobilization order from him, the Emperor, would suffice, but Emperors are different.
Those who can stay in the Star River World are all veteran Emperors who have performed great military exploits, especially those Emperors who possess Great Worlds; they can no longer be viewed simply at the level of subordinates.
They are more like partners.
And it's not just one or two.
So the order he issued was somewhat tactful: to let the six Emperors who have long resided in the world volunteer to go to the Star Ruins Battle Zone.
But many veteran Emperors in the world have experienced the last Star Calamity and are now single-mindedly seeking stability.
As a result, his order had been issued for several days, and not a single Emperor had taken the initiative to contact him to go.
This made him extremely annoyed.
Have these old subordinates reached this attitude now?
This made Emperor Dongxuan feel a sense of crisis in addition to his annoyance.
If it's like this just as the Star Calamity has begun, when the Star Calamity intensifies later and these Emperors are needed to exert their strength, will these people exert their strength?
"Returning to Your Majesty, currently, apart from Emperor Yukun contacting the subordinate, no one else has," True Person Tianfa gave the answer.
This answer caused Emperor Dongxuan's face to sink again, and a sudden fire rose in his heart; he already had the idea of finding these few Emperors to have a heart-to-heart talk personally.
"Only Yukun alone; this quantity is not enough!
If other Emperors are unwilling to volunteer to go, then it seems they want this Emperor to personally name and order them," Emperor Dongxuan's voice was cold and emotionless.
At such a time, if anyone still dared not to listen to the call, he might have to behead an Emperor first to establish his authority and boost morale for the Star Calamity war.
"Your Majesty, the subordinate actually has an idea." Looking at the change in Emperor Dongxuan's face, True Person Tianfa, who had followed Emperor Dongxuan for hundreds of years, understood that the timing was about right.
Any more, and it would be counterproductive.
"What idea?"
"Your Majesty, the reason why these Emperors are unwilling to volunteer to go to the Star Ruins Battle Zone is twofold."
"Speak!"
"One is the fear that if they leave for too long, the Great World they govern will be taken advantage of by others; the second is the fear that after going to the Star Ruins, they will lose the opportunity to govern a Great World," True Person Tianfa said.
What kind of person is Emperor Dongxuan? He immediately understood True Person Tianfa's meaning.
The key point lies in the Great World.
"Then what is your idea?"
"Your Majesty can issue another holy decree: those who go to the Star Ruins Battle Zone to participate in the war can have the Great World they govern inherited by their bloodline; if they return after performing a great feat, they can be rewarded with the governance of a Great World," True Person Tianfa said.
"You mean, the Dongxuan Star Realm?"
"Your Majesty, yes! These Emperors, although they are like immortals and gods, are ultimately human; give them some benefits, and they will definitely exert their utmost strength!
Of course, as for who will be given the governance of the Great World at that time, it will ultimately be decided by Your Majesty, according to Your Majesty's heart," True Person Tianfa said.
