"Hehe."
Great Emperor Ziwei chuckled.
Afterwards, he stood up tall, his eyes blazing as he swept his gaze over Lady Houtu and the others.
"I became the Great Heavenly Venerate because it was in accordance with the will of the common people. You want me to abdicate just because you say so? What do you take the common people for?"
Great Emperor Ziwei scoffed coldly.
His voice was authoritative and filled with fervor as it spread throughout the Three Realms, "The Three Realms belong to the common people, they belong to all the living beings under heaven. The Great Heavenly Venerate is merely a representative of all beings in the Three Realms. Today, I represent all living beings under heaven, the masses yearning for life. Even if the Jade Emperor were here, as long as the people do not wish for my abdication, I will not abdicate."
"Great Emperor Ziwei."
"Ziwei Heavenly Venerate."
"Let the Jade Emperor die."
The cries of the living beings came from below.
