Chapter 1255: Earthshattering

Yun Che was startled, a sudden sense of alarm rising in his heart. After a brief hesitation, he said, "Since entering the God Realm, this junior has been solely focused on cultivating the profound way, and so... I have no interest in marriage."

Yun Che's words were very artful. After arriving in the God Realm, his mind had been entirely preoccupied with finding Jasmine, leaving no room for thoughts of "marriage or the like."

But that was before he came to the God Realm...

"Hmm," the Brahma Heaven God Emperor nodded with a smile. "That is excellent. I have countless sons and grandsons, but only one daughter, and she is the most cherished of all my children."

"Ying'er is exceptional in every way and is even known as the 'Goddess' in the God Realm. In terms of cultivation, none of her peers can rival her. As for beauty, in the entire God Realm, only the 'Dragon Queen' can compare. And in terms of background... my daughter is naturally second to none in this God Realm!"

"Because of this, Ying'er's marriage has become my greatest concern, for in my eyes, throughout the vast Eastern God Region, there isn't a single man worthy of Ying'er! Nor has any man ever caught Ying'er's eye."

When mentioning his only daughter, Qianye Ying'er, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor's demeanor completely changed. His face was filled with pride, even arrogance. He seemed to be telling the world that compared to his status as the foremost profound practitioner in the Eastern Region, Qianye Ying'er was the greatest pride of his life.

Especially his last few sentences were essentially saying that the so-called elites of the Eastern God Region, including even the descendants of other King Realms, were utterly worthless compared to his daughter!

Everyone listened quietly, their hearts involuntarily stirred. What did the Brahma Heaven God Emperor mean by that?

Could it be... could he be intending to...?

No... that's impossible, isn't it?!

"Brahma Heaven God Emperor, what do you mean by those words?" The Eternal Heaven God Emperor looked at the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, then glanced at the exceptionally quiet Qianye Ying'er. His expression changed dramatically.

The Brahma Heaven God Emperor took a step forward and said with a chuckle, "Now, a man worthy of my daughter has finally appeared. Yun Che, I wish to betroth Ying'er to you. What is your intention?"

Yun Che: (⊙o⊙)...

Yun Che: "..."

Yun Che: (ヾ)

Thump...

Countless profound practitioners at the Conferred God Stage fell off their seats.

Few people had accompanied the Brahma Emperor God Realm, but upon hearing these words, they all shot to their feet in shock. The people from the Eternal Heaven God Realm, Star God Realm, and Moon God Realm also had their expressions drastically change. Their reactions were no less intense than when the nine-stage lightning tribulation had descended earlier.

The seats of the Star God Emperor and Moon God Emperor simultaneously shattered. Both stood up, their faces filled with astonishment. The Eternal Heaven God Emperor also furrowed his brows, his gaze filled with shock.

Who exactly was Qianye Ying'er?

The daughter of the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, the 'Goddess' of the God Realm. Her fame in the God Realm and her power within the Brahma Emperor God Realm were in no way inferior to the Brahma Heaven God Emperor himself.

Furthermore, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor had personally stated that the only one who could possibly inherit his position as Brahma Emperor Realm King in the future was Qianye Ying'er!

In terms of background and status, she was the daughter of the Brahma Heaven God Emperor and the future Brahma Emperor Realm King.

In terms of beauty, she and the 'Dragon Queen' were known as the two great celestial beauties of the world. It was rumored that one glance at her would make all other beauty seen in a lifetime fade into insignificance.

As for profound cultivation, not only was she unrivaled among her peers... it was rumored that she was not far from her father, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, in power.

Qianye Ying'er was a woman who had reached the pinnacle in status, profound cultivation, and beauty.

A 'Goddess' so perfect she seemed almost ethereal.

The 'Dragon Queen,' who was considered her equal, was the Dragon Monarch's wife. And the Dragon Monarch was the foremost individual in the God Realm today!

Only the foremost person in the world was worthy of the Dragon Queen...

Over the years, countless profound practitioners had speculated, fantasized, and imagined who might be able to win the Goddess's favor. Or perhaps, was there truly anyone in this world worthy of the Goddess?

Before Yun Che, Luo Changsheng was the leader of the Four God Children of the Eastern Region and the top young talent in the Eastern Region. Yet, even Luo Changsheng would never dare to hope of getting close to Qianye Ying'er, because he didn't even possess the most basic qualifications.

So what kind of individuals dared to pursue Qianye Ying'er with confidence?!

Star Gods... Moon Gods... Guardians... Sons of God Emperors... even King Realm Kings!

Yet, not a single one had ever managed to stir Qianye Ying'er, even slightly.

And now, the Brahma Heaven God Emperor had actually taken the initiative to propose... betrothing her to Yun Che?!

This was simply the most incredible statement they had ever heard in their lives.

Regardless of the outcome, based solely on this statement from the Brahma Heaven God Emperor, even if Yun Che had achieved nothing like "Conferred God First," the "nine-stage lightning tribulation," or the "True God prophecy"—even if he were a complete good-for-nothing—he would still become famous across all realms overnight.

It would also draw countless expressions of shock, incomprehension, and... envy!

"This... this... it can't... be real, can it?"

"The Brahma Heaven God Emperor is going to betroth the 'Goddess'... to Yun Che?"

With a "smack," Mu Huanzhi raised a hand and slapped himself. Then he stood there stunned, muttering to himself for a long moment, "What will Feixue do... That's the Goddess... the Brahma Emperor Goddess..."

This news was absolutely ten, even a hundred, times more shocking than Yun Che becoming a God Emperor's direct disciple. It also meant that the various God Emperors' regard for Yun Che far exceeded the imagination of other profound practitioners.

However, compared to the unrestrained excitement of others from the Snow Song Realm, Mu Bingyun frowned deeply.

"The Dragon Queen married the Dragon Monarch, and the Goddess is to be betrothed to Brother Yun Che... This means my Brother Yun Che is someone comparable to the Dragon Monarch... Ah, no! Father said the Dragon Monarch pursued the Dragon Queen for many, many years, never touching another woman his whole life for her, and only then did he finally win her heart. But Brother Yun Che, the 'Goddess' is actively seeking to marry him!"

"This means my Brother Yun Che is even more amazing than the Dragon Monarch! Father, aren't I right?!" Shui Meiyin's face was beaming with smiles. She felt not the slightest discomfort about this matter; instead, she was filled with pride and even managed to draw a somewhat peculiar conclusion.

Shui Qianheng: "..."

"Brahma Heaven God Emperor, you..." The Eternal Heaven God Emperor's expression changed repeatedly. In the matter of "contending" for Yun Che, he felt he had a clear advantage due to the existence of the Eternal Heaven Pearl. But he had never expected the Brahma Heaven God Emperor to bring out Qianye Ying'er!

As one of the Four God Emperors of the Eastern Region, he had naturally seen Qianye Ying'er's true appearance. With his experience as the Eternal Heaven God Emperor, he had to admit that there was absolutely no man in this world who could refuse the Goddess...

Let alone Yun Che, a young man who was not even thirty years old.

"Tsk, tsk," the Heaven Smiting God Emperor remarked languidly, clasping his hands behind his head. "Brahma Heaven God Emperor, you're truly going all out."

"Heh heh heh," the Brahma Heaven God Emperor chuckled softly. "It's not 'going all out,' but rather... it's unlikely I'd find anyone else worthy of Ying'er apart from Yun Che."

"So you're saying? The Brahma Heaven God Emperor truly believes that so-called 'True God' prophecy? Hahahahaha..." The Heaven Smiting God Emperor burst into a mocking laugh.

"There's one thing you said that I truly agree with: Mortals indeed cannot be qualified to prophesy about True Gods," the Brahma Heaven God Emperor said with a chuckle. "Therefore, as for the 'True God prophecy,' I don't believe it. But the 'nine-stage lightning tribulation' is right before our eyes. That alone is enough."

The Heaven Smiting God Emperor narrowed his eyes, then suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile, "Of course, it's your freedom who you wish to marry your daughter to. However, there's something I must remind you of: the 'Southern Sea God Emperor' has been infatuated with the 'Goddess' for a long time. Every time he's come to the Eastern God Region these past years, it's been for the 'Goddess.' If he finds out about this, I'm afraid he'll be very angry."

The Southern Sea God Emperor, leader of the Four God Emperors of the Southern Region, and also the foremost profound practitioner in the Southern God Region.

The Star God Emperor's expression suddenly darkened, but he remained silent.

The "God Slaying Absolute Calamity" that Jasmine had suffered years ago originated from the Southern Sea Realm.

"I have always regarded the Southern Sea God Emperor as a friend, but for him to become my son-in-law, I'm afraid he doesn't have the qualifications!"

The Brahma Heaven God Emperor chuckled as he spoke words that could be considered the most arrogant in the entire God Realm, words no one else would dare to utter. Then, ignoring Cang Shitian, he turned to Yun Che and asked, "How about it? Are you willing to marry my daughter?"

Gulp...

Countless people were swallowing hard. This was absolutely the one proposal in the entire God Realm that no one could possibly refuse.

Just a nod would grant him the most beautiful woman in the world, the peak of power, the most noble status... even making him the most envied man in the entire God Realm!

How could anyone refuse? What reason could there possibly be to refuse?

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor was known for his peaceful disposition and had always maintained a harmonious relationship with the Brahma Heaven God Emperor... at least on the surface. Yet at this moment, for the first time, he felt the urge to disregard propriety and point at Brahma Heaven's nose, cursing loudly!

What kind of tactic was it to use his own daughter as "seduction"... what kind of tactic was that?!

But facing the Brahma Heaven God Emperor's daughter, he couldn't find any "bargaining chip" that could compete. Although he also had many unmarried daughters, each of them exquisitely beautiful...

But compared to the "Goddess"... frankly, he was too embarrassed to even mention them.

Yun Che secretly took a breath, just about to answer, when he suddenly heard an urgent voice say, "Regarding this matter, I have something to say."

Shui Qianheng stood up, startling Shui Yingheng, who was beside him.

"Oh? Realm King Qianheng?" The Brahma Heaven God Emperor's gaze shifted.

Shui Qianheng's face was slightly flushed, but he quickly composed himself and said earnestly, "If the Brahma Heaven God Emperor were to marry off his daughter, it would undoubtedly be a grand event for our Eastern God Region. However, regarding Yun Che, Qianheng must clarify something. In truth..."

"In fact, half a month ago, Yun Che and my little daughter Meiyin developed feelings for each other during the Conferred God Battle. My daughter is still young, and Qianheng tried to dissuade her, but she is deeply in love with Yun Che, and Yun Che also has feelings for her... *cough, cough*. Therefore, Qianheng could not bear to forcefully separate a loving couple. I have agreed to this matter and set an engagement for them. After they leave the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm in three years, they will be married."

*Gasp*

Shui Qianheng's words undoubtedly created a huge stir instantly.

"..." Yun Che was dumbfounded.

Shui Yingheng's mouth fell open, and he weakly poked his head forward, saying, "Father, you... that's not what you said before."

"Silence!" Shui Qianheng pushed his head back with a slap.

During the Conferred God Battle, Shui Qianheng greatly admired Yun Che. But admiration was one thing; marrying his most treasured younger daughter to him was absolutely unacceptable!

Because no matter how astounding Yun Che's talent or how powerful his strength, his background was simply too humble. The lower realms were essentially the lowest tier of planes in the entire God Realm. How could he marry his daughter, who was like a star in the heavens, to someone from a lower realm?

Furthermore, one's background was something that could never be changed in a lifetime.

But now, things were different...

The nine-stage lightning tribulation, the True God prophecy...

Under such a halo, even the Brahma Heaven and Eternal Heaven God Emperors were so excited to contend for Yun Che that they were practically reaching a climax. Background? That was nothing!

Now, it was no longer a question of whether Yun Che was worthy of his daughter, but whether his daughter was worthy of Yun Che!

Suddenly, the one who appeared before Shui Meiyin was none other than Qianye Ying'er! The most formidable rival in the entire God Realm! Although Shui Meiyin was hailed as the most dazzling pearl of this generation in the Eastern God Region, at least for now, she simply wasn't qualified to be compared to the "Goddess."

If he didn't brave the embarrassment and step forward now... it would be difficult for Shui Meiyin to even become a concubine in the future.
