The words were already quite subtle; Fire Empress truly did not want to discourage Su Chen. After all, ever since Su Chen had fused with the ten Fire Lotus Nightmares, she had already come to regard him as her husband. This was an inevitable outcome, so she had already begun to consider things for his sake.
As for so-called romance, it could be cultivated over time. To a martial artist, cultivation knows no time, and she had never believed in love at first sight; affection must be nurtured over time.
Just as Fire Empress had guessed, Su Chen was deeply unwilling to accept that he had not been acknowledged by the altar. He truly wanted to enter the Eight-Part Altar Pagoda to cultivate and see if he could successfully obtain the fortuitous encounter needed to break through the limits of the God Kingdom and ascend to the so-called Destiny Realm.
