chapter-1594

Dinael stood in front of the door after Origin told her to enter the room. She took a deep breath, preparing herself to meet The Emperor. It was a lie if she was not nervous. She pushed the door and found Elin was not inside anymore, just The Emperor.

Dinael bowed toward Tang Shaoyang and took a seat when he motioned her to.

"What's your decision?" His deep voice exuded pressure on her, but she could tell it was much better than before. She did not feel the killing intent in his words anymore.

"First, I want to inform you that the decision to assassinate you in the trial is not my father's idea nor does my father agree to the idea. The Divine Church's involvement in this assassination was nothing. The ones after your life are from The Metarnian Dragon Clan and The Celestial."

"They proposed the idea to assassinate you! The other three factions agreed to the idea because they tried to use the loophole from the truce, but my father never agreed to your assassination. The Celestial and The Metarnian Dragon Clan also sent their own people."

"Does it really matter?" Tang Shaoyang asked, "I don't care if they are involved or not. What I want to know is your decision."

Dinael was confused for a moment. She tried to tell him that The Divine Church was not involved with the assassination. She was telling him that they could work together, and she wanted to know his plan to convince her father to work together. That was the original scenario that crossed her head. She thought he wanted The Divine Church, and she tried to live up to her expectation to be the bridge between The Tang Empire and the Divine Church.

"My decision? What do you mean by my decision?" She was confused.

"Are you good in the head? How could you not answer such an easy question? Will you join my side and help me to destroy the Nirvana Alliance? Or would you rather die a horrible death? You haven't answered me, and you start to ramble random things."

That was what he asked when she arrived in this room. The two choices were to betray the Nirvana Alliance and live or die.

"Of course, I don't want to die. I will join you to fight them. But you know, I am useless if I am outside the Divine Church's territory. The only way for me to help you is to connect you with my father, to the Divine Church. Don't you want them to destroy the Nirvana Alliance?"

"I see, so you took three hours not just to come up with a decision, but you also made a plan for me. Let's listen to your plan first."

Elin truly helped him to lighten his mood. If it did not happen, he might just cut her and force her to follow the plan in his head.

"My father agrees to help you fight The Nirvana Alliance, but he wants to listen to what you have in mind first. He wants to know if you have a solid plan or if it's just your spontaneous decision to fight the Nirvana Alliance. Don't you want me to convince my father and use The Divine Church against The Nirvana Alliance?"

"No! I never said that" Tang Shaoyang was never planning to work together with the Divine Church. Not even a little bit, he indeed needed the Divine Church for his plan.

"Then why do you ask me? You know I am that useless, especially with the additional punishment," Dinael was even more confused. If The Emperor did not want her to convince her father, then what he wanted from her?

"My plan is simple. If you agree to join me, then I will help you to take over the Divine Church. I will plant you as their leader and use the Divine Church to fight the Nirvana Alliance. I never ask for cooperation, and why should I trust your father's words at face value? How do I know he is not lying? How do you know he is not lying?"

Tang Shaoyang would never trust anyone with just their words anymore. It was his short experience that told him during the trial. It happened with Oby, and it was repeated with Ira from The Nebula Alliance.

"Can't you…" Dinael was about to say "Can't you tell how my father loves me that he is willing to betray the Nirvana Alliance?" She did not finish her words because after she looked at it from The Emperor's perspective, she realized how stupid the argument was.

They broke the truce, and why should he trust her father who led the negotiation for the truce. And he was right that her father could not be trusted from his perspective. She trusted her father unconditionally because she knew how much her father loved her.

"Are you going to argue I should trust your father because he loves you? But how do I know, how do you know that he loves you?" Tang Shaoyang asked.

"Don't you know? He is willing to negotiate a truce for me. Do you think he did not love me for what he had done?"

Tang Shaoyang nodded his head, "But will your father put you above The Nirvana Alliance? An alliance that has existed for I don't know how long, a thousand years?"

He knew the Nirvana Alliance had existed from the time of Avyn's ancestor. These people were the ones who wasted Avyn's homeland. But when he thought about it, he found something interesting about the Divine Church. The Nirvana Alliance, or a group who wanted to eradicate the Spirit Contractor had existed for so long, but why did the Divine Church only conquer a few worlds. He did not remember the exact number, but they had conquered less than five worlds.

If the Divine Church had existed that long, they should have more than just three worlds. He did not know how long it was, but it was long enough for them to conquer more than ten worlds. He finally discovered key information: The Divine Church might be a new faction that just joined the Nirvana Alliance recently.

But why Eol, the Divine Dragon was with the Nirvana Church. Eol was the dragon who betrayed Avyn's ancestor. If the Divine Church was a new faction that just joined the Nirvana Alliance, but why was Eol with them?

Dinael was left speechless when he questioned her like that. It was a weird question, how did she know her father loved her? Because she felt his love, she received that love. But that was not a valid argument to convince Tang Shaoyang, not when it was compared to the Nirvana Alliance. When the Nirvana Alliance was compared to her father's love for her. She could not answer it because she was not confident as her father might put the alliance above. She was afraid of that, hence she remained silent.
