Chapter 419: Heart of Xia
"I can't help it. I'm used to it... and you don't look that annoying."
Li Ke turned his head away. He always subconsciously tied Xia up. It was a habit he had developed during that period of time, and it gradually became a hobby. Besides, Xia didn't seem to enjoy it...
Xia slightly lifted the rope in her hand that was not completely untied, and she almost squatted on the ground. Her face was red and she glared at Li Ke. Li Ke really could never get enough of this feeling of not admitting defeat.
Ahri is good, but she is too submissive, so submissive that Li Ke feels that she is no longer in control.
Xia's tsundereness is just right!
"You...are you going to have another wife?"
Xia said this while gritting her teeth. She couldn't hide the conversation between Li Ke and Sejuani at all, so she asked directly.
Li Ke casually sat on the blanket, then pulled the rope and let the unhappy Xia sit in his arms. She obediently let him grab her arms and knead them to ensure that the blood flow in her limbs was smooth.
"It can't be helped. If I were still the crappy swordsman I was before, I wouldn't have so many troubles. But I am strong enough, and what I want to do is not difficult, so I have to do a lot of unnecessary things. I want to be the emperor of this world, otherwise, my fate in the future will not be good."
The favor of the gods and one's own strength.
Li Ke felt that if something really happened in Rune Continent, he would definitely not be able to escape.
Others have tall people to hold up their sky when it collapses, but the problem is that he is now the tallest person in Rune Continent. Basically, he will not be able to escape any trouble that happens in this world.
And he's so lucky.
Not very good either.
Even if he tried to avoid them, the Void and the gods would not let him go unless he planned to take his entire family away from Runeterra.
Therefore, it is better to take the initiative, gather the world's power in your own hands, and let the whole world and yourself take the blame together.
"Rune Continent has been at war for so many years. The more the battles are fought, the larger the scale of the battles is, and the more damage is done to the world. The rulers of the mortal empires always desire greater power and eternity, while the dynasties composed of immortal gods are too determined, even to the point of ignoring the cries of the lower classes. They have reached the level of arrogance and are no longer human. How can they rule over mankind?"
Rubbing Xia's paws, Li Ke felt the powerful muscles and continued speaking.
"Man cannot be ruled by gods, but he cannot be without a 'god' to act as a stabilizer to ensure that the trend does not deviate."
Li Ke raised his thumb and pointed at himself.
"I am strong enough, and I am not greedy for power. I don't plan to let my descendants rule the world. I will build an empire, but I will never control it forever. I will be self-sufficient and independent. I will not stand on the side of God, nor will I completely stand on the side of any race, because all races are so-called "aliens" to me. Even the humans in this world are not of the same race as me."
Xia pursed her lips. She was clear about this. Everything in this world was made of magic. If you think and observe carefully, it is not difficult to see that Li Ke was abnormal. The reason why no one noticed it at the beginning was simply because Li Ke's strength was not very strong at the time and there was no need to observe carefully.
"After a long period of division, the world will eventually unite, and after a long period of unity, it will eventually divide. The Rune Land has suffered from division for a long time! But there is a lack of a person who can dominate the world... And looking at the history of the Rune Land, in this world, only I, Li Ke, have the qualifications and the strength to become the God King of the Rune Land!"
Li Ke is very sure of this. After his strength has reached this level, the distinction between gods and humans has no meaning. His emotions and feelings will only appear with his permission.
The so-called thoughts of God are nothing more than this.
He could clearly see the shortcomings of Runeterra, and hated the wars and persecutions, and longed for growth and development.
In this world, no one is more suitable to be the God King than him.
The gods in heaven want him to be the emperor of this world, the people of Ionia want a strong leader, Piltover wants to change its current embarrassing status and potential dangers, Noxus wants an equal environment, and Demacia needs an open world.
Shurima needs a lot of supplies and development, and the treasures of Freljord want the ability to be monetized.
And those small countries in the Valoran Plains that are sandwiched in the middle need a stable environment.
"So you want to marry so many wives?"
"I don't want to either, but the fact is, with the level of thought and morality in this world, marriage is the best way."
Li Ke spread his hands. He didn't want to do that if he could.
Do you really think he is still interested in collecting beauties to build a harem?
Although it does exist.
But he actually prefers those who are more sincere, such as Ashe, Sejuani, and Lissandra. Although the three of them will enter his harem, in fact, they are just spokespersons for the Freljord.
Li Ke would not lock them up in the deep palace.
"Actually, Xia, you are the same. The reason why Shen and Jie don't want to tell you my whereabouts is because you still have the interests of the Vastaya people in your heart. Even if I ask you to stay at home and take care of your husband and children, are you willing to give up your Vastaya compatriots from now on?"
Li Ke gently stroked Xia's chest, allowing her to feel her heartbeat more clearly.
“…”
Xia didn't know how to answer this question because she knew she couldn't let go.
"The representatives of various forces all have the same husband. They are all one family. The people below all think that their representatives will give birth to children from their region and inherit the empire. As long as this situation lasts for 20 to 30 years, the world will spontaneously change to maintain the operation of this stable country. This is the simplest method, and I will naturally be able to withdraw."
If it were any more modern society, Li Ke would not use this method, but this is the way it is in this era. Other things are too advanced and the people below cannot understand them. How can he feel at ease?
Scratching Xia's chin, Li Ke felt Xia becoming more and more relaxed, or more and more helpless, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia is very stubborn. If she doesn't accept it, she will never accept it even if she dies. It would be the best if we can convince her now.
"I don't understand this. It's useless for you to tell me this. I don't care about what you say."
However, Xia turned over and pushed him down.
"But according to your theory..."
There was a determination in Xia's eyes , but her face was very red and even her voice was trembling.
"…I will make it impossible for you to ignore the interests of the Vastaya! Ignore my needs!"
