Looking at the pillar of starlight in front of him, Azir's face flashed with remembrance. When he was a teenager, he had stumbled into it by chance and was helped by the goddess Acacia.

Returning here after a thousand years, he has transformed from a mortal prince into an ascendant.

Feeling embarrassed, recalling the simple spell that the goddess Acacia had taught him, Azir tried to summon the goddess Acacia inside the starlight pillar.

As everyone knows, just as he was concentrating on summoning the goddess Acacia, a black shadow instantly disappeared into the illusion of the starry sky above the imperial city.

At the same time, Ye Feng and his party who rushed to the altar did not see the Void Ruiwen, but instead saw the ancestor of Sivir, Azir.

The crowd hid in the shadows, thinking that no one had spotted them. But they didn't know that the black shadows that had disappeared into the starry sky before could see their whereabouts clearly.

Under the gaze of Ye Feng and everyone, a familiar shadow hidden in the starlight pillar was summoned by Azir. If Ye Feng and the others guessed correctly, that Qianying should be the goddess of Acacia.

Under the shroud of the starlight pillar, the temperament of the goddess Acacia appears more mysterious and elegant. Somewhat surprised, an outsider who knew how to summon her who had lost the light of Acacia, looked down at Azir below.

When she saw Azir's form, her ethereal voice that could purify her heart echoed across the altar.

"I didn't expect you to come back, and you transformed from a mortal to a god."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Feng and the others who were hiding in the shadows trembled, they didn't expect Azir to come here before. And listening to the tone of the goddess Acacia, she seems to admire Azir.

If the power of the Imperial City of Acacia was obtained by Azir, wouldn't they have come for nothing?

Especially Sivir, after hearing this, the influence of the solar disk on her deepened. There was a voice in her heart urging her to take control of the Imperial City of Acacia.

"Venerable Goddess, I came this time to get the power of the Acacia Imperial City Circle."

In the stunned eyes of Ye Feng and the others, Azir directly confessed the purpose of his trip. And the next answer of the goddess Acacia stunned everyone even more, and they couldn't digest the amount of information in it for a while.

"When you were a mortal before, you refused me to become the controller of the power of Acacia's circle twice, why did you suddenly change your mind this time?"

As if she had guessed the purpose of Azir's trip, there was no surprise in the words of the goddess Acacia, and she looked at Azir below with a smile.

"Venerable goddess, I won't hide it from you, the Shurima Empire where I belong has fallen, and I want to get your power to rebuild the Shurima Empire!" In the face of the goddess Acacia, Azir had nothing to hide.

Hearing this, the goddess Acacia, who had long anticipated what Azir said, still sighed faintly, revealing a trace of pity for Azir in her tone.

But it was only a trace of regret lamenting the vicissitudes of life, and the goddess Acacia did not reveal other emotions.

After a long time, the goddess Acacia said, "I'm sure you've heard the legend of Acacia, right?"

He had naturally heard of the legend of Acacia, and this time the starlight fragments in the Imperial City had awakened, and he knew Acacia better than before.

He didn't quite understand why the goddess Acacia would ask this, but Azir nodded.

"And what do you think of it?" Goddess Acacia asked again.

For Acacia, who only exists in legends, Azir, who is proud of the splendor of the Shurima Empire, is also full of worship for Acacia. He said bluntly: "Acacia led all the races to expel the evil Void Visitors, accepted the worship of all races, and created the most glorious dynastic era of mankind!"

Hearing Azir so affirm of Acacia, who she had created with her own hands, the goddess Acacia did not show the slightest hint of arrogance. With a calm face, she asked again, "Azir, what about Acacia's final end?"

"In the end, it has disappeared into history...... "Azir sighed, lamenting the end of such an era of human power.

"Even a glorious dynasty like Acacia is gone, so why are you obsessed with restoring a dynasty that has passed?" The goddess Acacia blinked in the starlight, but she still spoke her advice to Azir.

Unable to listen to the words of the goddess Acacia, as soon as Azir thought that Zelas was still alive, he said with a gloomy expression: "Lord Goddess, I am just unwilling, unwilling to forgive the Ruima Dynasty for being destroyed in the hands of a traitor like this!"

Slightly disappointed by Azir's reaction, the goddess Acacia shook her head in the starlight: "Azir, you should understand that there is no eternal dynasty in this world, no matter how it is ended, prosperity and decline are inevitable."

"Goddess, I know you're doing it for my good, but I've decided to rebuild the Shurima Empire!"

A sentence blocked the last persuasion of the goddess Acacia, and Azir's eyes were firm, mixed with a desire for revenge.

Seeing that the mortal who once admired her had become what it was now, the goddess Acacia took a long breath and sighed softly, "If you really want to build a kingdom in this desert that can bring happiness to people, I will naturally support you......"

After a pause, she continued: "But now your heart is full of the obsession of revenge, and you are no longer the pure-minded mortal you used to be, I can't hand over the control of the magic circle to you, you go back and reflect on it, and come back when you regain your heart!"

"Lord Goddess, no matter what, this time I must get the power of the Imperial City Circle, if you are not willing to take the initiative to hand over control, then I have to take it by force!"

Azir's face showed an apologetic look, but it was replaced by a grim and persistent look in an instant.

I didn't expect that the boy who had strayed into Acacia would become the person who was now blinded by hatred, and the goddess Acacia said in disappointment: "Azir, when the dynasty finally falls, why do you have to suffer?"

"The Shurima Empire will never fall, and I will definitely prove it to you, and the glory of the Shurima Empire will return!" Now that Azir has lost his mind, he is bent on killing Zelas and rebuilding the Shurima Empire.

"Even if the next kingdom is called Shurima, there is no going back to the time of the ancient Shurima, Azir!" The star-like eyes of the goddess Acacia showed a hint of pity.

"Goddess, don't persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind!"

The desire for revenge on Zelas was ignited, and Azil said no more, walking towards the starlight pillar that was close at hand. Since the goddess Acacia refused, he had no choice but to rob it!

The goddess Acacsia in the Starlight Pillar had a disappointed look on her face, but she didn't say anything, silently looking down at Azir walking towards her below.

Seeing that Azir was about to step into the starlight pillar, a thunderbolt fell from the sky and shot straight at his skull.

At the same time, under the incredulous gaze of Ye Feng and his party, a monster bound by the chain of the coffin and covered in chaotic energy flew up from the stairs below the altar.

Azir, who narrowly avoided the thunder, turned around with a grim expression, and a pair of eyes full of murderous intent bloomed with a terrifying light.

"Ze...... Pull...... This! ”
