After millions of years in the library, I became an Immortal Emperor.

Bianjing, the capital of the Song Dynasty!

In the imperial court, the officials stood on both sides, their expressions solemn, all looking at the figure at the very top, the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

"The Emperor of Tang has declared war on our Song Dynasty. What do you think?"

He spoke calmly, without much emotional fluctuation, as if he were just asking a question casually.

But what it will determine is the future of the Song Dynasty.

All the ministers remained silent.

Yoshihisa

"I heard that a while ago, the young emperor of the Tang Dynasty invited the strongest people in the world to a discussion on the Dao. Did any of you go?"

The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty asked again.

Many people raised their heads, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"Your Majesty, my father has passed away."

At the very end of the hall, a young minister spoke, and all eyes in the hall fell upon him, their expressions hardening.

Zhao Kuangyi!

The prodigy of the Zhao family has taken over the official seal of the Zhao family and entered the court of the Great Song Dynasty, but he rarely speaks in the hall.

The Emperor of the Song Dynasty also turned his gaze to him, a hint of approval on his face.

He is not only the prodigy of the Zhao family, but also the number one young talent in the Song Dynasty, with a cultivation level at the peak of the Divine Power Realm.

"Where is your father?"

The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty asked.

Zhao Kuangyi stepped forward and respectfully bowed to the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

"He said that the sage once appeared in Shengjing, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and preached to the strong people of the world. He benefited greatly from it and has now gone into seclusion in Shengjing."

One sentence sent a shockwave through everyone in the hall.

The Tang Dynasty declared war on the Song Dynasty, and they are now enemies. However, a high-ranking official in the Song Dynasty is now in seclusion in the enemy capital, practicing asceticism.

What is this?

To defect to the enemy?

They then turned their gaze to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, only to find that he was actually smiling.

"The sage has appeared in the world to preach the Way; it seems that the sage has also chosen the Tang Dynasty."

He said that all the ministers knelt down, not daring to raise their heads, except for Zhao Kuangyi, who was still standing.

"Zhao Kuangyi, what are you thinking?"

The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty looked at Zhao Kuangyi and asked.

Zhao Kuangyi looked up and met the eyes of the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, then bowed slightly.

"The Tang Dynasty has declared war but not yet launched an attack. I believe they are waiting for His Majesty the Emperor. The Tang Emperor has never intended to wage war against our Song Dynasty."

"A conflict between two countries does not necessarily have to be fought; there are other paths to take."

"combine!"

He spoke, then looked up at the assembled officials, his gaze slightly narrowed.

"Elders, do you believe that humanity can withstand an internal conflict? Would the Sages want to see a civil war among humanity?"

"We have only one enemy: the alien race!"

"Human blood must be shed on the battlefields of other races."

His words, spoken softly, resonated throughout the hall, drawing all eyes to him. No one expected such words to come from a young man.

"Your Majesty, if I am not mistaken, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is waiting for you. I believe Your Majesty should make a trip there."

He added.

The Emperor of the Song Dynasty looked at him, his gaze slightly narrowed, and the entire hall fell silent. Then, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty burst into laughter.

"Good, Zhao Kuangyi, I was right about you. You are the one who sees things most clearly in this court, and you even understand my thoughts."

"Since you said so, then you shall come with me."

Zhao Kuangyi bowed deeply.

"Your subject obeys!"

The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty stepped down from the main hall, walked to Zhao Kuangyi's side, helped him up, and then looked at the other ministers.

"You lot don't even see things as clearly as a young person."

"In this world, the human race existed before the nations came into being."

A single sentence echoed through the hall, and everyone stared in a daze as the Emperor of the Song Dynasty departed.

A few days later, in Shengjing!

In the Zhaixing Palace, Li Yu was brewing tea and playing chess, with the Dean of the Great Tang Academy standing behind him. At some point, a figure appeared from the sky outside the Zhaixing Tower.

Dressed in a blue robe and gold jacket, wearing auspicious cloud boots, and accompanied by a young man, he sat down in front of Li Yu, picked up the teacup beside him, and took a sip.

"I've been waiting a long time."

"The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty said."

Li Yu looked at him, stood up, and gave a slight bow.

"As long as the Emperor arrives, Li Yu is willing to wait as long as possible."

The Emperor of the Song Dynasty looked at him with a smile, then glanced at Zhao Kuangyi beside him.

"The sage brought vitality to the human race, and there are more and more people like you. I truly see the hope for the rise of the human race in you."

"I'm getting old. I've carried you for most of my life, and it's time for me to rest. I'll leave this land to you from now on."

He spoke with great magnanimity, as if he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

"Though we are old, we are still capable of fighting. If one day our troops march across the land, do not forget us."

As he finished speaking, several more people arrived outside the Star-Picking Hall.

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty, the Shu Dynasty, and the Wei Dynasty, except for the Jin Dynasty emperor, all arrived.

The Great Jin Emperor was still outside the Primitive Mountain. Although he knew that a sage was watching the Primitive Mountain, he still did not leave.

"A prosperous era is built on the bones of countless fallen soldiers. While we can still move, let us help you unify this world."

"We will all be part of the battles to come."

That night, they all arrived in Shengjing without prior arrangement; perhaps they had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Humanity needs a human emperor, so they stepped forward, but what humanity needs now is a human emperor who can rule the world.

They wouldn't need to stand there then.

Li Yu was slightly shocked by this scene. He took a deep breath and bowed to the emperors. The Dean of the Tang Dynasty State Academy and Zhao Kuangyi did the same.

This is the changing of the guard, the passing on of the torch of humanity.

It's right here in this Star-Picking Hall.

"Li Yu will certainly live up to the expectations of all the emperors!"

He said it with unprecedented firmness.

This is the human race. Why should we worry about not rising up? With just one word, the entire human race can unite as one.

They didn't care about the throne of the human emperor; all they cared about was the human race.

"Haha, it's our turn to bow to you. After tonight, you will be the emperor of the entire human race. But if one day you forget your original intentions, we will come back."

"Although I don't know you very well, the sage has chosen you."

"I believe in saints."

……

The six emperors bowed slightly to Li Yu in the Star-Picking Hall, and Li Yu returned the bow in kind.

Over a few cups of tea, several emperors chatted about everything under the sun, from a thousand years ago to a thousand years into the future, until finally the tea grew cold and they left.

Several emperors left together.

Zhao Kuangyi did not leave; he simply looked at Li Yu and bowed slightly.

"My name is Zhao Kuangyi, and a sage once gave me guidance."

He said that he stayed in Shengjing.

Under the starry night, the six emperors walked along the main street of Shengjing. Suddenly, the world before them became illusory.

In the blink of an eye, they found themselves in a small courtyard.

A young man in white stood on the steps, looking at them with a faint smile.
