Chapter 791: Contact
The Silver Moon primogenitor was deep in thought in the Mystic Realm. Under the current circumstances, she wanted to break the game and take back the authority she had lost from Chen Heng or even kill him.
It was impossible for her to disrupt the dangerous situation by herself, this time completely. Her strength was insufficient, so it was unrealistic for her to kill Chen Heng directly. Thus, it was necessary to ask for external help. However, who to ask was a problem.
In regards to the Ancient Tree Primogenitor and Guardian of Cardo, she need not hesitate. They were both familiar faces to the Silver Moon Primogenitor. She reckoned that she would most likely be able to invite them over so long as she paid a certain price.
However, she could not help but hesitate when it comes to the God of Shadows. There was nothing she could do. To the Silver Moon Primogenitor, the God of Shadow was still quite unfamiliar, so much so that she had to consider a realistic question. Would the other party agree?
If the other party didn't agree, would they send the news to Chen Heng, making him wary in advance? After thinking for a moment, the Silver Moon Primogenitor made a decision. She was prepared to rope in the God of Shadows and make him work for her. At most, she would pay a little more price.
The Silver Moon Primogenitor believed that the most an outsider wanted after coming to this world was to take root and settle down in this world for a long time. The Silver Moon Primogenitor believed that she was able to satisfy it.
She was a primogenitor who had survived since ancient times. Therefore, she was very clear about the secrets of this world. Therefore, no matter what the God of Shadows wanted, she could think of a way to solve it. Nonetheless, he, on the other hand, didn't have much choice. After all, would he help Chen Heng if he didn't help her?
The Silver Moon Primogenitor was the primogenitor of this world. She was one of the most top-notch people. Comparatively speaking, Chen Heng was only a junior.
'What did he have in his hands that could rope in the existence of such level?' Thinking of this, the Silver Moon Primogenitor gradually calmed down and began to send out invitations according to her previous thoughts.
...
A vast sacrificial ceremony commenced on the grassland behind. The God of Nature was bathed in spiritual light, quietly enjoying his believers' worships. Around them, the God of Nature's believers were praying, revealing an extremely fanatical expression.
Wisps of golden power of faith discharged from their bodies and finally reached the God of Nature's body following some kind of connection. A spiritual light came from afar and surged toward the God of Nature's body as if it was coming toward him.
The God of Nature didn't look surprised and directly extinguished the spiritual light using his hand. Then, he read the information and understood the whole story, and he could not help but look a little strange.
Further away, people were also standing there at the Cardo Empire territory. The God of Shadows looked at the spiritual light in his hand and felt the various information that emerged from it. He looked a little strange, he did not expect the Silver Moon Primogenitor to be looking for teammates and find him.
'However, this seemed to be a good opportunity from another perspective.' This thought flashed through the God of Shadow's mind. His heart eventually moved as he looked at the area that belonged to the Guardian of Cardo before him.
The Silver Moon Primogenitor probably did not expect that the moment she sent an invitation to the God of Nature and the God of Shadow, Chen Heng had already found the news.
It wasn't strange that this was the case. The coordinates of this world were discovered by Chen Heng back then. They were able to come into this world because Chen Heng invited them in. Before they came into this world, they had promised to agree to Chen Heng's request and help him at the critical moment.
Of course, even though they had agreed beforehand, this didn't mean they were selfless contributors. On the contrary, they were merely people who kept their promises naturally because they had their requests.
The God of Shadows was currently fighting the Guardian of Cardo. He wanted to take over the Cardo Empire and turn this region into his divine kingdom and was not able to avoid the Guardian of Cardo, so he had to get rid of it.
Therefore, the God of Shadows did not mind doing Chen Heng a favor and wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the Guardian of Cardo. As long as the Guardian of Cardo was settled, the Cardo Empire would naturally become his.
As for the God of Nature, it was even simpler. In this world, the God of Nature attempted to seize everything from the Ancient Tree Primogenitor and become the primogenitor of this world. This would inevitably encounter many obstacles and require the help of others to resolve everything.
Now that the God of Nature had helped Chen Heng, Chen Heng would naturally return the favor and help him. In addition, the God of Nature's believers in the World of Gods had already pledged their loyalty to the Hatim Kingdom, and most even lived within it.
Based on the God of Nature's relationship with Chen Heng, he had naturally long understood the so-called relationship between Mr. Chen Heng and the King of Hatim. Therefore, the God of Nature was naturally more inclined towards Chen Heng. Therefore, there was no need for a reason to decide.
The Silver Moon Primogenitor's plan this time was a misjudgment. Other than the honest Guardian of Cardo, the other two had never intended to cooperate with her to complete the plan from the beginning.
In the Violet Empire, Chen Heng quietly put down the equipment in his hands and looked into the distance with a smile on his face.
"What's wrong?" A woman's voice sounded from across him. There was an inexplicable charm in her voice.
"Nothing." Chen Heng shook his head, then turned his gaze back to the person before him.
Aisha was sitting before him. At this moment, she was wearing a gorgeous long dress. She didn't look like a demon from the abyss. Instead, she looked like a decent princess. After the battle that night, the abyssal princess didn't leave immediately. Instead, she hid quietly in the Violet Imperial City as a noblewoman.
She took the initiative to meet Chen Heng in the following days, so she arrived before him.
"I had just learned some interesting things." Then, looking at Aisha before him, Chen Heng smiled and said.
"Really?" Aisha was curious about Chen Heng's words and couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything I can help you with? If there's a need, I can help you."
"Did you mean it by yourself or the person in your body?" Chen Heng glanced at Aisha and said softly.
Aisha's expression remained the same, then she smiled and said, "How can you tell?"
"Of course." Chen Heng nodded, saying, "The aura on your body is too obvious."
"Really?" Aisha nodded thoughtfully and said, "I'll try to improve it later."
Aisha's body had an extremely strong aura, so strong that it almost devoured her whole. In comparison, Aisha's aura was so weak that it could not be seen. Almost all of it shrank.
Chen Heng could easily see through the situation on Aisha's body. A strong, inexplicable will was hidden in her body at the moment. In Chen Heng's opinion, it might not be as good as outstanding ones like the God of Shadows, but it was not inferior to ordinary gods.
"Was this the one summoned for the sacrifice before the Descending Assembly?" Then, looking at Aisha before him, Chen Heng thought of the information he had obtained during that period and said thoughtfully.
"You can say that." Aisha smiled and did not deny Chen Heng's words, then said, "But this doesn't affect anything, does it?"
"That's true." Chen Heng nodded, agreeing with Aisha's words.
The will hidden in Aisha's body was undoubtedly a high-level demon. It was at least at the level of a Demon Lord. If this level of a demon will descended on other people's bodies, it would undoubtedly be a nightmare.
The reason demons were called demons and had such a notorious reputation in the World of Gods was not simply because they originated from the Abyss World. Anyone who dared to trade with demons would undoubtedly only have one outcome— to be devoured alive.
However, this was nothing for Aisha. She was a demon and was favored by the abyssal will. She could almost be called the abyssal princess. For others, letting a demon lord possess their body was a nightmare. Yet to her, it was only protection.
"How much power can the one on your body exert?" Looking at Aisha, Chen Heng thought for a moment before asking.
"Hmm..." Hearing Chen Heng's words, Aisha fell silent and then spoke with a smile, "Probably at your current level."
"To such extent..." Chen Heng looked deeply at Aisha, somewhat impressed by such infiltration.
The Demon Lords of the Abyss World could descend into this world because of Aisha. Aisha must have put in a lot of effort for him to be able to display a Demigod's strength in this world.
Chen Heng didn't know what to say. The primogenitors of this world were indeed incapable and completely did not react to the infiltration of the abyssal world. Nonetheless, this was also because this world was not invaded by other worlds in the past.
After all, with the power of the primogenitor world, they would probably be the ones invading others, and no chance for the others to invade them. Hence, they naturally wouldn't gain experience without encountering a painful lesson.
Many arrangements for Aisha's Descending Assembly were pretty intentional. At least Chen Heng noticed it and always wanted to ridicule it. It was such a rough arrangement. If it were in the World of Gods, the church under them could have taken care of it without needing those high and mighty gods to make a move.
However, no one found anything wrong with the Descending Assembly in this world. In fact, even Jameson helped a lot during this process. However, in the future, if the primogenitor world fell, these people would be deemed sinners of the primogenitor world.
"What have you thought?" Aisha looked at Chen Heng and shook her head. She thought he was thinking about what happened just now, so she couldn't help but ask.
"If someone is willing to help, I will naturally welcome them." Chen Heng looked at Aisha and agreed to her previous suggestion. However, he continued to ask, "I just don't know what you need me to do."
Chen Heng was certain that the abyssal demon's help was no free lunch. If one thought the abyssal demon was a good person who would help others for free, then one had to be cautious because he was likely to be the abyssal demon's target and would be eaten alive.
"How about some materials and souls?" Aisha asked tentatively.
"There is no problem with the materials, but not the soul." Chen Heng rejected Aisha's request and said softly, "These are my future believers."
Chen Heng was also a god and had a certain need for the power of faith. Nonetheless, his faith originated from a wide range of sources, and he didn't desperately need the faith of the world before him.
However, even if he didn't need it, it would be good to give it to the God of Shadows and others and not give it to the Abyss demon for free.
"The Violet Empire has accumulated a lot of things in its inventory. You can choose now if you need it." Chen Heng looked at Aisha before him and said, "But if you want the souls, then forget it. This is what the God of Shadows wants."
While the God of Shadows sent Chen Heng a message, he also sent his request— to preach in the Violet Empire and obtain the power of faith here was one of the God of Shadows' requests.
Chen Heng had just promised the God of Shadows, so he couldn't go back on his words and offer the soul of the Violet Empire to the abyssal demon. That was too unethical. Nonetheless, it didn't matter whether it was ethical or not to Chen Heng.
What was important was that the abyssal demon's participation was nothing to Chen Heng. Without Aisha's participation, with the God of Nature and the God of Shadows' presence, Chen Heng was still confident in dealing with the Silver Moon Primogenitor, whether or not Aisha was part of it.
"Forget it..." Aisha pondered for a moment as if she was discussing with the will in her body. Then, she smiled and agreed to Chen Heng's request, "It's nice to have enough materials. We can build more altars." She was asking for materials and souls to prepare for the descent of the abyssal demons.
At present, she would have secretly brought many abyssal demons into this world. However, the materials she had collected before were not sufficient. She still needed many materials and souls to replenish, so she asked Chen Heng for these things.
After chatting with Aisha briefly, Chen Heng walked to the outside world. Aisha wasn't the only guest in the Violet Palace. Grissom and Aimer were also there drinking tea and chatting. They seemed to be having a pleasant conversation.
Seeing Chen Heng walk into the palace, the two stood up and looked at Chen Heng before them.
"You're back." Aimer looked at Chen Heng and said softly to him. Her voice was as gentle as before.
Grissom frowned and looked at Chen Heng before him. He seemed a little puzzled, "Why did your bloodline become like this?"
He could keenly sense the changes in Chen Heng's body compared to before. It was the feeling of various bloodlines merging into one. There were many royal bloodlines among them, including the Sun's bloodline and the Silver Moon bloodline, as well as some other things. There seemed to be many changes compared to before, but Grissom could not tell what exactly had changed.
"I've experienced some things, so my body has more or less changed." Chen Heng smiled and said softly to Grissom.
After defeating Aili, Chen Heng brought Grissom and Aimer into the palace to take care of them. He also revealed his true identity as a Violet Prince. Grissom took the news calmly but was surprised that a prince of the Silver Moon Royal Family would awaken the bloodline of the Sun Royal Family.
Logically speaking, this was not impossible. However, the probability was very small, especially for someone like Chen Heng, who had powerful Silver Moon Royal Family and Sun Royal Family bloodlines. It was even rarer.
In short, in this world where bloodlines identified friends and foes, the powerful Sun Royal Family's bloodline in Chen Heng was a beacon. Even if he was a Silver Moon Royal Family prince, Grissom could still recognize him.
This was comprehensible. Due to the powerful Sun Royal Family's bloodline in his body, Chen Heng's descendants would also carry the Royal Sun Family's bloodline. No matter his surname, this bloodline was real, and there was no way to deny it. Thus, Grissom's attitude remained the same.
However, Aimer's attitude had changed. Ever since she knew Chen Heng's identity, how she looked at Chen Heng was not right.
She was bearing an engagement with the Silver Moon Royal Family, originally made with the first prince, Prince Aili. Yet, this engagement would not disappear according to tradition despite Prince Aili's death. Instead, it should be fulfilled by another Silver Moon Royal Family member of suitable age.
Within the current Silver Moon royal family, the only person who could fulfill this engagement was probably Chen Heng. Therefore, after knowing Chen Heng's identity, the hidden thoughts in Aimer's heart grew stronger, causing her attitude to change slightly, though it did not have much impact.
"It looks like you guys are getting used to it here."
Chen Heng subconsciously reached out and touched Aimer's head, smoothed out the messy hair on her head, and made it much more supple. This action immediately made Aimer blush. She lowered her head silently and did not say anything.
