Now, he has to juggle being a scientist, a planetary governor, and guiding the development of the entire force.
Moreover, helping Guilliman would mean controlling such a vast empire to solve his problems.
Is this something a scientist should be facing?
Even though he possesses a brain far surpassing that of ordinary computers, even quantum computers, and the supercomputers in the Federation.
However, when he had to handle all these things on his own, Zhou Qing still felt tired.
It's not that his brain can't handle these things, but rather that he has too many things to manage right now, all of which are draining his energy.
Mental and spiritual fatigue is unavoidable.
Compared to his life in the Federation, and then to his current life in this remote and impoverished place, he was really struggling to cope.
Having received no feedback from Zhou Qing, Guilliman ultimately had to make his own decision: to temporarily ignore these issues.
He needed to return to the palace to inquire about his father, and at the same time, he needed to fulfill his promise to Zhou Qing and allow him to see the Emperor.
Guilliman spoke quietly with the Imperial Guard for a while, and then he immediately began preparations to go to the Golden Throne to meet the Emperor himself.
The Imperial Guards were persuaded by Guilliman, or rather, they had received part of the Emperor's message, and now they understood that the Emperor's message was referring to Zhou Qing.
The Imperial Guards did not prevent Zhou Qing from entering the throne room; on the contrary, they granted him permission.
Led by the Imperial Guards, Zhou Qing and Guilliman entered the throne room.
Guided by the Imperial Guards, Zhou Qing met the Emperor, the Emperor of the Human Empire, who was revered as the God-Emperor in the state religion.
What Zhou Qing saw was not a glorious creature, but a creature that resembled a dead and dried-up corpse.
Zhou Qing was stunned when he saw the withered body, which looked like a skeleton.
He doesn't judge a person solely by their appearance; his spiritual power also plays a role. He can sense that the emperor of this human empire's spiritual power is being continuously absorbed by the golden throne beneath him.
In addition, Star Torch, which is nearby, also needs this power, but for some reason, the Emperor is not providing Star Torch with any power at the moment.
Zhou Qing was stunned when he saw the person in front of him who looked like a dried-up corpse, while Guilliman knelt down on the ground.
Although Zhou Qing remained standing in his position without kneeling, a gesture that seemed extremely disrespectful, the Imperial Guards did not intervene.
The Imperial Guards had long received the Emperor's instructions.
The Emperor meant that Zhou Qing was a huge turning point, so the Imperial Guards were very lenient towards him, after all, he was someone personally selected by the Emperor.
This was one of the few times in a long time that the Imperial Guards were finally able to communicate with the Emperor.
Moreover, this time the situation is quite clear: the emperor's humanity has returned.
Zhou Qing just stared at the emperor, but in the end, he didn't ask any questions first.
Instead, he took out a large amount of Ze Luo from his backpack.
This was his last reserve of energy, but instead of keeping it safe, he piled it up around him in large quantities.
He then began to absorb this energy and transmitted it into the interior of the dried-up corpse in front of him.
A large amount of pure spiritual energy began to enter the Emperor's body, cleansing Him of the toxic beliefs.
Zhou Qing's every move was seen by many as blasphemous.
Meanwhile, the Imperial Guards believed this could threaten the Emperor's safety, so they immediately wanted to stop it.
For the Imperial Guards, although the Emperor's divine oracle demonstrated Zhou Qing's importance, they could not tolerate any danger to the Earth Ring.
But before they could even move, the Emperor himself intervened, his golden spiritual energy freezing the Imperial Guards in place, rendering them unable to move.
A large amount of spiritual energy flowed from Zhou Qing's body into the Emperor's body, nourishing his withered body.
The poisonous faith was removed by Zhou Qing, relieving the emperor of the pressure of his impending ascension to godhood.
At the same time, the influx of pure spiritual energy nourished the Emperor's body, and he began to recover.
No one in this universe possesses spiritual energy as pure as Zhou Qing's, nor can anyone help this emperor in the same way.
Zhou Qing poured most of his spiritual energy into the Emperor's body, leaving only a small portion behind.
The emperor's body was no longer as shriveled as before; it had recovered slightly.
Although this recovery seemed extremely minor to many, the Imperial Guards still saw it.
The imperial radiance shone forth from Zhou Qing.
This is pure Bitcoin!
No one has been more helpful to the emperor than Zhou Qing.
It not only removed his toxic beliefs and slowed his ascension to godhood, but also provided some nourishment for his body.
Chapter 69 The Empire's Lifelong Sun Lord
Once the energy injection was complete, it was the Imperial Guards' turn to panic.
They quickly moved a chair over from the side and placed it behind Zhou Qing so that he could sit comfortably.
This is an elderly gentleman; we absolutely cannot let him get tired.
We must let him rest properly so that our Emperor can recover fully.
Ever since the Emperor was injured, the Imperial Guards have been filled with self-blame, a self-blame that has lasted for 1 years. Now, they see the possibility of making amends for their mistakes.
The fact that this powerful psychic was able to help the Emperor recover is truly remarkable.
Not to mention the Imperial Guards, even Guilliman was dumbfounded as he watched Zhou Qing come to his father's rescue.
Guilliman stood to the side, dumbfounded, staring blankly at the scene.
The Imperial Guard's gaze softened as they looked at him; they had previously looked down on and distrusted the Space Marines and Primarchs.
This disdain and distrust intensified after the Primarchs held a grand birthday celebration.
But now the Imperial Guards have changed their opinion of Guilliman.
Who said Guilliman is a coconut-loving person?
No one is more loyal than him. Look who he brought with him. He even brought Zhou Qing, who can cure the emperor.
This softened the way the Imperial Guards looked at Guilliman; he was definitely a loyalist, unwaveringly loyal.
Zhou Qing plopped down in the chair provided by the Imperial Guards, then looked at the shriveled body in front of him that had regained a little human form.
The emperor's spiritual power was truly immense, and at the same time, his ailment was incredibly stubborn.
All of this combined resulted in Zhou Qing's energy expenditure being extremely high.
This is a chronic problem that has existed for tens of thousands of years. It is impossible to fix it in one go. Zhou Qing doesn't even know how many times it will take.
He could sense a strange energy within the emperor, driving him to ascend.
But the most outrageous thing is that all of those things are poisonous.
These things are constantly pouring large amounts of revenge and hatred, along with a whole host of negative emotions, into the body of the human giant before him.
It is foreseeable that if this continues, then this deity, after ascending to godhood, will have lost his humanity.
If a human loses his humanity, can he still be human? He will no longer be human, and these negative emotions will completely devour his divinity.
This is absolutely not possible.
These beliefs are poisonous, and extremely poisonous at that.
Although Zhou Qing had a way to remove the poison of these beliefs from the emperor, it was not something he could do alone.
This accumulation is simply too much; he's just a scientist with no real power.
If we want to remove these things from the Emperor, then at least the psionic legions from the Federation would have to come.
It might even require dozens of psionic legions, as well as a large number of combat nun legions, to work together to purify the area for over a hundred years.
Most importantly, we must stop allowing people in this universe to continue their faith. As fellow human beings, we must prevent more toxic beliefs from entering his body.
There's no way around it; there are just too many humans in this universe, and their beliefs are far too varied. A large amount of toxins are continuously entering the bodies of our fellow humans.
If he cannot remove these toxic substances, then the moment he becomes a god, it means he will no longer be human.
Zhou Qing felt utterly exhausted.
But the emperor before him was different; he had never felt so good in the past 1 years.
A large amount of spiritual energy repaired his body and removed some of the things he didn't want.
His spirits improved, and he felt that he had regained some of his humanity, which was wonderful for him.
The emperor looked down at Zhou Qing, who had purified his body. He wanted to release some spiritual energy to help him recover, but he stopped himself in the end.
The emperor's spiritual power was also influenced by his faith.
These spiritual energies were also poisonous, and he was afraid that Zhou Qing would have some adverse reactions after he infused his spiritual energy into him.
If something unexpected happens to Zhou Qing, then the hope that he has finally found will vanish again.
Zhou Qing was resting because he was exhausted, so the emperor had no choice but to talk to his son first. A surge of spiritual energy entered Guilliman's mind and began to communicate with him.
Perhaps it was because Zhou Qing had solved some problems for the emperor that his humanity once again prevailed.
Therefore, this time the Emperor did not speak frankly to Guilliman as he had before.
He referred to Guilliman as my dear thirteenth son.
This title is much better than the original one, where if the emperor's divinity prevailed, he would only refer to Guilliman as a tool.
Ten thousand years later, Guilliman saw his father again.
He could feel the surging spiritual power emanating from the Emperor, which was equivalent to facing a star, or even more so.
No one knows what the Emperor and Guilliman actually talked about.
The Imperial Guards didn't know either; they only heard the last part of the message: the Emperor himself had issued a divine decree appointing Guilliman as Regent of the Empire!
At the same time, the Emperor did not forget Zhou Qing and directly appointed Zhou Qing as the Sun Lord!
Zhou Qing became the Sun Lord for life, the Imperial War Marshal, and no one could strip him of his status unless the Emperor himself spoke up.
Sun Lord is one of the highest ranks in the human empire. Being a Sun Lord means having the power to mobilize all the resources of the entire human empire to launch a great expedition.
However, the title of Sun Lord can be stripped. Generally, the Sun Lord's title will be revoked after the Great Expedition ends.
