"I understand now! This isn't the funeral of the Jester Emperor! It's that little man's!"
"He had dual authority, with no way to ascend any further!"
"But he tried so hard, even in death taking the Jester Emperor down with him, incredibly impressive in his utter ruin!"
"Yet the resolve of the Heavenly Dao to kill him was unshakable, only willing to meet him with a most solemn funeral, to die with dignity, in accordance with the natural order..."
The Corrupt Demon Minister laughed uproariously, his laughter growing even louder:
"The Ye family, your clan isn't bad at all!"
"Big brother really should learn from you. At his age, to have not a single descendant, it's not amusing at all!"
"Roar——"
The two gods flattered each other, their spirits greatly invigorated.
The lightning that filled the skies descended upon them all, the orange-golden Cross Thunder Sword seemed to have reached its limit of containment, beginning to shatter from the tip.
