Long Chen had never imagined that things would become so chaotic all of a sudden.
On one hand, Sky Heart Emperor was worried that Long Chen would harm his daughter, and on the other hand, he hated Long Chen. On the other hand, Long Chen was worried that Sky Heart Emperor would tell the Ancestral Lord about what happened here. Long Chen might be able to fool Sky Heart Emperor, but the Ancestral Lord wasn't so easily fooled.
As the two sides confronted each other, Long Chen waved his hand and said, "That's enough. I feel that you don't need to panic. Let's communicate. I heard what you said just now. I'm curious if the Origin Ancestor knows about this place. Does he know that you're still using this flame to preserve your daughter's life and constantly thinking about saving her?"
Sky Heart Emperor guarded the ice coffin and glared at Long Chen for a long time before saying, "Only I know about this place. The Ancestral Lord naturally doesn't know about it. Why? Are you going to complain to the Ancestral Lord too? My daughter's matter is insignificant to the Ancestral Lord, but if he knows that you've followed me to the Cursed Star, he definitely won't let you stay in the Ancestral Star. I'm guessing that you don't want to leave the Ancestral Star. You must have some ulterior motives.
Tell me, am I right? "Long Chen shook his head and said," If that's the case, why don't we just pretend that nothing happened and leave together without anyone knowing? "
"You don't believe me, and I don't believe you."
Long Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "To be honest, I heard what you said just now. You seem to be very regretful. You said that you'll break the Curse of Eternity for your daughter, but it's obvious that you'll still rebel against the Ancestral Lord in the end. Tell me, if the Ancestral Lord knows about this, do you think it'll be a small matter?"
Or perhaps, this was what Sky Heart Emperor was afraid of.
"Perhaps you can escape, but she won't be able to."
Long Chen pointed at Purlin.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Sky Heart Emperor's voice was filled with suppressed rage.
Since the Sky Heart Emperor was so suspicious of him, Long Chen could beat him at his own game and obtain some information from him. After all, the Sky Heart Emperor definitely knew more than Ghost Seven.
He then said, "Maybe I can help you. You're right, I have a purpose in coming to the Homeworld."
Although Long Chen's attitude had changed, the Sky Heart Immortal Emperor didn't relax. He said, "Tell me then, what is your motive?"
"I want to know something. If you can tell me, I will naturally be indebted to you. I, Long Chen, am a person who knows how to repay kindness. If I succeed in the future, I might be able to help you."
"What do you want to know?"
Both sides were in a stalemate. Long Chen didn't hold back and said, "In the myriad worlds, I once belonged to a world, but that world has been destroyed. I'm now a person without a hometown. The experts of my world were sealed by a curse and turned into statues and ghosts, just like your daughter. They're in eternal slumber, but there's also endless torture. I want to save them from their suffering, so I came to the Homeworld. I heard that there might be a way to break the curse here."
The Sky Heart Immortal Emperor wasn't aware of Long Chen's desire for the Ancestral Flame. Therefore, when Long Chen revealed his other motive, he naturally believed it because he knew what Long Chen was talking about.
"It's the 'Nightmare Petrification Curse' and the 'Daynight Spirit Curse', which are several levels higher than the Curse of Eternity. The Curse of Eternity is the limit of the Ancestral Ancestor, and these two curses only exist in ancient legends that no one in the Homeworld knows about. Perhaps only the Ancestral Ancestor and I have heard of these two curses in the entire Homeworld … Therefore, since you can tell me about it, it must be true … but I really don't believe that these two curses still exist in this world."
It was only then that the Sky Heart Immortal Emperor calmed down a little. Long Chen's frankness made him relax a little. He had lived for a long time, so he could naturally tell that what Long Chen said was true. His motive for coming to the Homeworld should be different from the Ancestral Ancestor's purpose of going to the Myriad Worlds. Not everyone had the desire to rule over the Myriad Worlds.
Long Chen was overjoyed when he heard the Sky Heart Immortal Emperor's words. "Do you know if there's someone or something in the Homeworld that can dispel these two curses?"
The Sky Heart Immortal Emperor was silent for a long time. When Long Chen couldn't hold it any longer, he said, "You can say there is, but you can also say there isn't."
"What do you mean?"
"If I say there isn't, it's because I know that there are many curses similar to these two curses. They are all ancient curses recorded in ancient and tattered books that surpass the current level of the Homeworld. Therefore, there isn't a way to dispel them. The fact that there's someone in your world who is afflicted with this curse is probably something that happened before the epoch. Even if there is a way to dispel it, it has long been lost."
"Then why do you say there is one?"
Long Chen didn't have much patience on this matter. After all, this concerned the divine dragons that had been cursed for an epoch.
The Sky Heart Immortal Emperor said, "There is. That's because the Ancestral Founder has something. If he can pay a sufficient price and find sufficient support, he might be able to dispel the curse."
"What is it?"
The Sky Heart Immortal Emperor shook his head. "Your matter has nothing to do with me. I'm curious as to why I should tell you."
Long Chen thought for a moment before saying, "It's simple. If the thing in the Ancestral Founder's hand can dispel the Ancient Curses, I believe the Curse of Eternity will not be a problem. I can also help you."
The Sky Heart Immortal Emperor hesitated because he knew how terrifying the Ancestral Founder was.
Naturally, he hated the Ancestral Founder from the bottom of his heart.
"I have a daughter too. I understand how you feel."
Long Chen didn't hate the Sky Heart Immortal Emperor. From the way the Sky Heart Immortal Emperor treated his daughter, he could tell that it was the deep affection of a father.
"You …"
The Sky Heart Immortal Emperor was startled. He suddenly said with a trembling voice, "Can I have a look?"
"Look."
This was nothing. Long Chen carried Long Yan out and pinched her cheeks. "Yan 'er, call me Uncle."
"Call me Uncle? Who's calling me Uncle? Where is this?"
Long Yan's eyes widened as she looked around. When she saw the Sky Heart Immortal Emperor in a gray robe, she hurriedly shrunk into Long Chen's embrace. She angrily said, "Ugly freak."
"Go back."
Long Chen hurriedly threw her back to prevent her from acting recklessly. They had only been out for a short while, yet Long Chen was already feeling awkward.
"Sorry, there's a fellow at home who keeps teaching the children to use vulgar language."
That person was Kitten …
"Mn, she's quite cute …"
The Sky Heart Immortal Emperor said in a daze. Then, he turned to look at Jin 'er. When he recalled Long Yan's ferocious appearance, he couldn't help but tear up.
"Forget it, forget it, I'll tell you. The Primordial Ancestor has a Creator Artifact that has been passed down since ancient times. It's called the 'Divine Curse Ring'. He hides the Divine Curse Ring and never uses it. No one is worthy enough for him to use it. In fact, not many people in the entire Ancestral Star know about it. It's his most precious possession. Not to mention lending it to others, it's impossible to even let others see it. It's even more precious than his own life … It's said that as long as one has enough power, this item can remove all curses in the world. Of course, it can also place many curses, and finally …"
He looked at Long Chen and said, "I think, if the myriad worlds don't have it, this Divine Curse Ring should be the only Half-Origin Artifact in the myriad worlds."
Although it wasn't a true Origin Artifact.
But it surpassed the Original Incipient Artifact. It was a terrifying symbol.
"Half-Origin Artifact."
Long Chen sucked in a breath of cold air.
He didn't expect the Primordial Ancestor to hide such a thing. If he took it out, he would definitely turn into ashes.
It seemed that the Primordial Ancestor was probably the strongest expert in the myriad worlds. In a one-on-one battle, he should be above the four Rulers.
"If there's a way to remove the Nightmare Petrification Curse and the White Night Spirit Curse in the Ancestral Star, the only possibility is the Divine Curse Ring. The Divine Curse Ring can also easily remove the Curse of Eternity and let my daughter return. However, I have to say that it's impossible for you to obtain the Divine Curse Ring. Besides, as long as the Primordial Ancestor doesn't die, even if you obtain the Divine Curse Ring and help me remove the Curse of Eternity, as long as I'm still in the Ancestral Star, even if my daughter comes back to life, the Primordial Ancestor will still vent his anger on me …"
The Sky Heart Emperor's words were normal at the beginning, but the latter part was strange. At this moment, he was in despair.
"What do you mean?"
Now that he knew his target, Long Chen could take his time. There was no need to rush. He could wait until the day he could defeat the Primordial Ancestor. Therefore, he was actually very relaxed now.
The Sky Heart Emperor shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Alright, Long Chen, I'll tell you the truth. I'm already feeling apologetic, but it's too late. If I knew your real target was the Divine Curse Ring, I wouldn't have been so anxious. There's one thing that I've lied to you about, I'm sorry."
Long Chen's body trembled, "What?"
The Sky Heart Emperor helplessly said, "Actually, the Primordial Ancestor knew that I was in the Cursed Star and used this flame to extend my daughter's life. With this, he could control me better. Therefore, the Divine Curse Ring doesn't exist. I was afraid that you would tell him everything here. Therefore, from the beginning, I didn't have any evidence that could be used against me."
Long Chen was startled. He had underestimated the Primordial Ancestor. He thought that the Sky Heart Emperor was secretly extending Duan 'er's life. Unexpectedly, the Primordial Ancestor allowed it. Because every time he saw his daughter, the Sky Heart Emperor knew the price of betrayal. Therefore, he didn't dare to betray her.
The Sky Heart Emperor said, "Therefore, the moment I found out that you were here, I informed the Primordial Ancestor and wanted him to help me. I'm sorry, even after telling you all this, I found out that this was a good and risky opportunity. However, the ending was already set in stone. The Primordial Ancestor is a suspicious person. As long as he believes that you're a threat, he would do anything. I can't help you."
The Primordial Ancestor knew that Long Chen had secretly come here the moment the Sky Heart Emperor returned. If the Primordial Ancestor knew that Long Chen's target was the Divine Curse Ring, it would be even more troublesome.
