"I don't want to maliciously speculate about the three Celestial Kings," Zhao Jie sighed softly, "but the fact is, they are not entirely benevolent and solely devoted to the nation, or at least not completely. Regardless of the Celestial Kings' personalities and their beliefs and ambitions, there is always an aspect of the ruling class in their essence. Every Awakened who keeps getting stronger will feel this aspect more deeply. In a certain sense, this is a fundamental contradiction that is difficult to resolve."
This made Chu Xiu take a cold breath: "Brother Zhao, are you suggesting... I've already been seen as a threat by the Celestial Kings?"
Zhao Jie remained silent for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "I don't know; no one can know what the Celestial Kings are thinking."
