Chapter 383: Chapter 303: No Trace of Acting

His Majesty the Divine Emperor’s countenance was majestic, his Saint Emperor level terrifying aura suppressing the entire world, causing figures like the Flame Saint Lord and the Golden Rift Saint King to tremble in fear.

At this moment, another figure emerged from the chaos void, "Divine Emperor, are you trying to intimidate us with your power?"

Everyone looked up to see that the newcomer was Saint King Shi Ming, the Realm Lord of the Artifact Realm.

The Divine Emperor said solemnly, "Shi Ming, according to the rules of Chaos, this realm was first discovered and conquered by our Divine Realm, and thus it belongs to us. Does your Artifact Realm also wish to lay claim to it?"

For endless ages, the Myriad Realms of Chaos had not fallen into ceaseless warfare because long ago, many of the top worlds had established a set of rules that all were to follow.

One of these was regarding the discovery and occupation of new worlds.

The Divine Emperor continued, "If your Artifact Realm disagrees, then I can invite the Chaos Sanctuary to adjudicate."

The Chaos Sanctuary is an organization founded by many top-tier worlds to resolve disputes and exert certain control over these top worlds.

The Vast Wilderness Realm, although unique, was ultimately a new world undiscovered by other realms of Chaos.

Saint King Shi Ming frowned, "I never said the Vast Wilderness Realm wasn’t conquered by you."

The Divine Emperor was somewhat relieved.

If the Artifact Realm truly desired to seize it, the Divine Realm definitely could not stop them, given the complex network of relationships behind those Artifact Refiners, who could easily summon several Saint Emperors.

And once more Saint Emperors appeared, or even a Supreme of the Great Path, that would definitely ignite a struggle for the Chaos Pearl, and the Divine Realm would have no choice but to relinquish the Vast Wilderness.

But now, the Artifact Realm clearly also feared the involvement of the Chaos Sanctuary.

Saint King Shi Ming then said to the Divine Emperor, "My Artifact Realm isn’t capable of holding onto the Chaos Pearl, so I only want that Primordial Source of the Dao of Artifacts.

To the Divine Realm, even if you obtain the Primordial Source of the Dao of Artifacts, you wouldn’t be able to utilize it fully."

"However, if you give it to my Artifact Realm, I can ensure that my realm will refine artifacts for you an unlimited number of times. Of course, you will need to provide the materials yourself."

Upon hearing this, the Divine Emperor fell into thought.

To be honest, he was somewhat tempted.

Even though he greatly desired the exclusive control of that Dao Source, the Artifact Realm had arrived too quickly.

If he did not agree to Saint King Shi Ming’s request now, then the Artifact Realm would certainly not let the matter rest.

After a brief contemplation, the Divine Emperor first asked, "Jiang Yuan, where is Laozi of the Vast Wilderness?"

Realm Lord Jiang Yuan could only reply truthfully, "Your Majesty, I haven’t seen him, but the Vast Wilderness Realm has already been sealed by us, I can assure you he is still within the Vast Wilderness!"

The Divine Emperor’s expression darkened, Laozi hadn’t been found yet?

What exactly had the grand army of the Divine Realm obtained after coming here with such fanfare?

Blood Slaughter Divine King quietly said, "We initially had victory within our grasp, but that Vast Wilderness Saint called Liu Xiu self-destructed, giving them the opportunity to escape, and now all the Vast Wilderness Saints have disappeared."

The Divine Emperor could no longer hide his irritation, as they had gained nothing at all!

Most importantly, there were other realms’ Saints present, truly a spectacle for them to witness!

Saint King Shi Ming chuckled, "Divine Emperor, how about I let my Artifact Realm help you capture Laozi? Our previous conditions would still apply."

The Divine Emperor said solemnly, "No need, when my Divine Realm captures Laozi, we will send him to the Artifact Realm."

Saint King Shi Ming nodded with a smile. Just then, another figure emerged from the distant chaos void.

Seeing this figure, the Divine Emperor frowned again, and the expression of the Blood Slaughter Divine King changed because the newcomer was none other than the previously escaped Ji Yan Saint Lord.

Laozi, appearing as the injured Ji Yan Saint Lord with his Qi in disarray, saw so many All Heavens Saints present, steadied himself showing no panic, then approached Saint King Shi Ming and angrily accused, "Realm Lord, you must stand up for me, the Divine Realm is too bullying!

I was merely inquiring about the situation in the Vast Wilderness Realm, yet they wanted to kill me,

had it not been for the Realm Lord bestowing me a Limitless Blood Escape Talisman, I would have perished long ago!"

This caused everyone from the Divine Emperor to the Divine Kings to sport rather unsightly expressions.

"There must be some misunderstanding," the Divine Emperor said. "This is a Divine Origin Pill, offered to Ji Yan Saint Lord for healing."

All the Saints present were moved because the Divine Origin Pill is one of the top-tier pill medicines in Chaos, comparable to an Innate treasure, and even the Alchemy Realm which specializes in pill medicine doesn’t have many of them.

Laozi immediately accepted it, being proficient in Alchemy himself, he recognized the value and thought to himself that Sun Wukong had arranged a good script for him, gaining so much right from the start.

Seeing this, Saint King Shi Ming smiled, "Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s let this matter pass."

He then led the two Saints of the Artifact Realm, along with the Golden Rift Saint King and others, out of this chaotic void.

Jiang Yuan, the Realm Lord, couldn’t help but feel reluctant, asking, "Are we really going to let the Primordial Source of the Dao of Artifacts go so easily?"

The Divine Emperor snorted, "What choice do we have? If you were able to find Laozi before the Artifact Realm arrived, then even if they brought more Saint Emperors, I could refuse them. But now..."

All the Divine Kings were ashamed.

Jiang Yuan, the Realm Lord, with a serious face said, "Your Majesty, give me a bit more time, I will definitely capture Laozi!"

"I hope you do as you say," the Divine Emperor responded solemnly. "There are several peculiar places in this realm that I am unable to investigate. It might be remnants of the Spirit Sanctuary foundations. Laozi could be hiding among them, you must investigate carefully."

Having said that, he then vanished.

Following this, Jieyin hurried forward, groveling, "Realm Lord Jiang Yuan, that was His Majesty the Divine Emperor just now, wasn’t it? Truly a majestic presence, maybe one day you could introduce me?"

Jiang Yuan, already in a mood, had no respect for such a spineless person, but he knew that Jieyin, being a native, would be key in finding Laozi.
