Chapter 618: National Destiny
"Could it be that from the very beginning, he had never thought about integrating the power of the Phoenix himself?"
Wu Zhao spoke in astonishment.
Then she told him everything she had experienced that day.
After hearing this, Jin Guang was completely stunned.
"So the Holy Emperor knew that the strange phenomenon in the sky was the manifestation of the power of the Phoenix?"
Wu Zhao nodded.
“At that time, I also sensed the existence of the Phoenix Force, because the Phoenix Force was attracting me to come into contact with it.
“But I am hesitating, because under his influence, I find that the entire Great Zhou is not under my control. I also have the intention to retreat from the power of the Phoenix this time, because if I merge the power of the Phoenix to become stronger in front of him, then will he have any unnecessary arrangements?
“It’s just going to be more than I knew.
"But what I didn't expect was that he actually came right in front of me and told me to go up and fuse the power of the Phoenix."
Wu Zhao sighed.
She now understood why Xiang Yutian did not try to merge himself but instead asked her to merge.
According to what Qiao Feng said, that means that if Yutian himself were to integrate the power of the phoenix, he would probably not only fail, but would suffer backlash.
The power of the auspicious beasts of heaven and earth will definitely not be stolen by people with evil in their hearts.
But does he allow himself to merge, and then does he take it from himself?
Wu Zhao couldn't understand this logic.
Because even if the Phoenix power in his body was taken away, he would still not be able to accept someone like Xiang Yutian who had evil intentions.
"Master Qiao, even if he wants to take it from me, I'm afraid he won't succeed unless he can change himself into a righteous person, or at least not a person with evil intentions and who kills people without hesitation."
Wu Zhao looked at Qiao Feng, her face full of confusion.
Qiao Feng smiled and said, "Then we have to explain why he didn't take action immediately after your fusion.
"In fact, I didn't quite understand why he asked you to merge with the Phoenix Force at first. According to what you said, he seemed to have known about the emergence of the Phoenix Force a long time ago, and he even specifically asked you to merge with it.
“All this seems normal in the entire Great Zhou and even in the entire human world.
"Because you are the Queen of the Great Zhou, you are born with the fate of a phoenix, so it is normal for you to merge.
“Only if you merge, it will be reasonable in the eyes of everyone, and not many people will covet it.
“But in fact, if a powerful force like the Supreme Alliance wants to establish a dynasty like the Great Zhou, it is not impossible.
"Then here comes the problem. He trained you to become an empress and control a dynasty, but he didn't give you the greatest power.
"For so many years, you have only discovered that he might be greedy for the Phoenix Force. So how can he successfully seize the Phoenix Force in your body without suffering backlash?"
Wu Zhao shook her head: "I don't understand either. Moreover, according to what you said, Master Qiao, I am also blessed by the Great Zhou Dynasty's national destiny."
Jin Guang was shocked when he heard this, "What? The fate of the Great Zhou?"
Shangguan Wan'er looked at the two of them in confusion.
Jin Guang immediately raised his hands, formed seals, and cast a spell.
He did not hide anything and started to perform magic in front of the three people.
After a few breaths, he placed his hands in front of his eyes and slowly wiped them.
Jin Guang slowly opened his eyes, and all he saw was a golden light that almost blinded him.
There was also a loud sound of a phoenix, as if a being from the nine heavens was falling, making the golden light feel an irresistible majestic aura.
He quickly dispersed the spell.
"It is really the fate of the country that has been bestowed upon me. How is it possible that the fate of the country has been bestowed upon me?"
Jin Guang's expression changed drastically.
At this time, Qiao Feng was also surprised.
"Master Jin Guang, is there anything wrong with this? Based on your majesty's current strength and the influence of the Phoenix Power, she may have won the support of the people of the entire Great Zhou.
"And your majesty is the supreme empress of the Great Zhou. Shouldn't the fate of the country be concentrated on her?"
Wu Zhao also looked towards the golden light.
She doesn't understand either.
Shangguan Wan'er was even more confused.
Jin Guang sighed.
“Most people in the martial arts world don’t believe in the concept of luck.
“But demons and magic exist, so why can’t we believe in the theory of destiny?
"If we pay a huge price, we can still see a glimpse of the future, but few practitioners are willing to pay such a high price to try.
"Luck can be strong or weak. For example, the luck of ordinary people is so weak that it is almost unnoticeable. This is true even for those who are born with good luck and have a smooth life.
"Even a person as powerful as Master Qiao, with great luck, is just like that, a drop in the ocean.
“And national destiny is the fortune of a country.
“The luck of a country is so huge. If the luck can be gathered and manifested in the capital of the Great Zhou, the Divine Capital, I would not be so surprised. After all, 80% of the power of the Great Zhou is gathered in the Divine Capital.
"But unfortunately, the fate of the country appeared in your Majesty alone, condensing into a golden phoenix surrounding your body. Even if your Majesty is at the level of a celestial being, it is probably difficult for you to inherit the fate of a country. It is all thanks to the existence of the power of the phoenix that your Majesty was not crushed by the fate of the country."
Jin Guang told the story in a leisurely manner, and the three of them suddenly understood.
Qiao Feng asked, "But as far as I know, if she didn't have the power of the phoenix, the fate of the country would not have been condensed on her."
Jin Guang replied: "The convergence of the luck of billions of lives in a country is something that ordinary creatures cannot bear, even if they are as powerful as warriors or practitioners in the heavenly realm.
“And yet, Your Majesty has inherited the destiny of the nation, and now I am safe and sound, all because of the existence of the power of the Phoenix.
"However, if Your Majesty loses the power of the Phoenix, I'm afraid that he will be destroyed immediately."
Wu Zhao trembled when she heard this.
She hadn't expected such a possibility.
She herself didn't know why the destiny of the country was concentrated on her.
Perhaps it is true as Master Qiao said, the country's destiny only gathered in her body to form a golden phoenix because she integrated the power of the phoenix.
She seemed to see the golden phoenix vaguely.
But if you look closely, you can't notice it.
She had watched the entire performance of Jin Guang just now. Jin Guang couldn't see it either, and it was probably just a quick glimpse before he dispersed the spell in fear.
That says it all.
She looked at Qiao Feng for help.
Qiao Feng spoke slowly: "Don't worry, it's actually very simple to solve the national destiny."
Jin Guang continued, "Of course it's simple. If the Great Zhou is defeated, the national fortune will naturally decline. Perhaps if you resign from the throne, even if the national fortune is concentrated on you, it will still slowly dissipate and spread throughout the Great Zhou.
“But I didn’t expect that the Great Zhou actually consolidated the national destiny.
"Your Majesty, if you were in the Great Zhou, I'm afraid your strength would increase by at least 50%."
Wu Zhao was delighted when she heard this, but she also felt disappointed.
Even if his strength doubled, he would probably not be a match for Xiang Yutian.
She knew that.
Because at this moment, when she looked at Qiao Feng opposite her, she felt as if she was sinking into the deep sea.
