Chapter 845 Chaos Demon!
Then, the emperor and the high priest walked hand in hand to the center of the dance floor.
The nobles around them saw this scene and understood that the two of them must have something important to discuss.
So, everyone was very tactful and consciously kept a certain distance to avoid disturbing their conversation.
After entering the dance floor, Shaddam IV danced with Xiao while lowering his voice and directly asked: "My high priest, where is my crown? Now the reputation of the Atreides family is in full swing and continues to expand and grow. This really makes me feel uneasy!"
The words revealed the deep worry and uneasiness of the ambitious emperor about the threat to his own status.
He deeply understood that only by obtaining extremely powerful power can he consolidate his own status and power.
However, what is more urgent at this moment is to get an outstanding successor to pass on the supreme throne.
He will never allow a person of an outsider to marry his daughter and thus usurp all the glory and rights that should belong to the Corino family.
"The cosmic furnace has been built and the void crystals have been successfully collected. Smelting and forging can be officially started tomorrow!" Xiao responded calmly.
"When will it be completed? Give me an exact time!" Shadam IV's questioning voice suddenly rose, but he tried his best to suppress it to avoid being heard by outsiders, so it was mixed with uncontrollable anger.
"It will take about three months!" Xiao answered firmly.
"Okay, just three months. If you fail to complete the task on time, you should know what a miserable ending it will be to anger an emperor! I will make the entire sisterhood be buried with my Corino family!"
Shaddam IV's eyes were wide open, and he tightly grasped Xiao's palm with both hands, with such force that he seemed to crush his bones.
At this moment, he was like a seriously injured lion, on the verge of death, but still struggling desperately, and he put all his hopes on the mysterious prophecy of the high priest.
If he could not get what he wanted, then at the last moment of his life, he would inevitably set off a shocking and crazy revenge.
It must be admitted that over the years, Mother Helen's step-by-step pressure has made him fall into a semi-crazy state.
Whether it is the cruel reality of the heir, or the secret behavior of secretly cultivating the legendary Kwisatz Haderak to replace him, they are like sharp thorns, constantly pricking the old emperor's fragile and sensitive nerves.
If the old emperor had fallen into the abyss of despair and no longer had any illusions and expectations for the future, perhaps he could still endure this pain silently.
But the prophecy made by Xiao, like a lightning that cut through the night, instantly ignited the long-hidden fire of hope in his heart, allowing him to see a glimmer of control over his fate.
According to the life believers of Nurgle, whoever obtains the Crown of the Void will be able to completely control the Void virus that terrifies everyone.
At that time, he will receive the gift of Nurgle, become the champion of Nurgle's God, and gain unprecedented extraordinary power.
With such power blessing, he can easily break free from the heavy shackles and clamps imposed by the Sisterhood, and have the strength to confront those powerful psychics head-on.
Only in this way can he have enough confidence to force the Sisterhood to obey his will and give birth to a qualified heir for him,
thus completely ending the tragic fate of the Corino family's extinction and leading this family that once had a glorious ten thousand years to the road of great revival again.
However, at this moment, facing the seemingly weak power in his hand, like a newborn baby, Xiao showed an extraordinary calmness and composure, and even slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile of joy that was difficult to conceal.
She slowly stepped back, lifted the hem of her skirt gracefully, performed a standard court salute to the old emperor, and responded softly: "Yes, my majesty!"
Looking at Xiao's smiling face, Shaddam IV, who was already furious, could no longer suppress the surging anger in his heart, and his emotions instantly lost control.
He cursed angrily: "Damn it, you'd better remember the promise you made today!"
Before he finished speaking, the furious old emperor turned around and left without looking back, leaving only a burst of angry footsteps echoing in the empty banquet hall.
"o(*￣︶￣*)o"
Xiao always maintained a warm smile like the spring breeze, bowed slightly and performed a standard etiquette to the emperor.
Her movements were graceful and smooth, as if they had been rehearsed countless times.
Xiao didn't stand up until the emperor walked away and disappeared from everyone's sight.
However, as Xiao's face gradually lowered and buried in the shadows, her expression was full of joyful smiles.
Kukuku~~~
Not only that, because she tried hard to hold back her smile, her body even trembled slightly involuntarily.
Over the years, Xiao has been secretly exerting his means to subtly influence Saddam IV's spirit.
Six years have passed, and Saddam IV is no longer as resolute and powerful as before. His mental state has become increasingly fragile under Xiao's careful planning.
Xiao knows that at this moment, Saddam IV is like a shaky building, and it only needs the last straw to collapse.
And the key "straw" is the Crown of the Void in Xiao's hand.
As long as she hands this mysterious and powerful treasure to Shaddam IV, the once high-ranking human emperor will fall into the endless abyss of chaos without hesitation.
By then, he may completely lose himself, throw himself into the dark embrace of the warp, and transform into a terrifying Chaos Demon.
Thinking of this, Xiao couldn't help but feel a strong sense of expectation.
Once there is such a powerful helper as Shaddam IV, the warp will inevitably usher in unprecedented rapid development.
He will expand and spread at an astonishing speed, quickly covering the entire known universe.
At that time, everything in the world will be in her hands, and Xiao can't help but want to howl~
……
……
When the grand banquet of the Corino family came to an end, Xiao immediately changed out of the gorgeous dress and put on a simple and capable work suit.
She hurried to the central furnace of the cosmic furnace.
This gigantic furnace radiates suffocating heat and dazzling light, and within it lies the tremendous power of 3.33 million stars.
