"The Divine Emperor descends; under normal circumstances, a grand feast should be prepared in his honor, yet now we require his assistance."
The Sovereign of Hongmeng looks at Chu Yuan, feeling somewhat relieved in his heart.
He understood from Lu Yuan's transmission that Chu Yuan had come this time for the Execution Heavenly Sword, and as long as he helped repel the formidable threat before them, he wouldn't mind relinquishing the swords to Chu Yuan.
"Special circumstances call for special measures."
Chu Yuan smiles.
He gazes at the Sovereign of the Abyss, recalling how he had ventured into Hell before attaining the Heavenly Dao, experiencing firsthand the divine might of the Sovereign of the Abyss. At that time, he was insignificantly weak in front of such a presence, not even worthy of notice.
But times have changed; it was no longer the past. Though he is still unable to defeat the Sovereign, he now has the qualification to face him directly.
