Chapter 248: Dealing with the War G.o.d Temple

To Gu Tieshou and the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, not to mention an ancestor like Mu Chen, even an elder like Elder Jiang in the modern times was a character outside of their reach! What honor this was to have an ancestor of the War G.o.d Temple personally visit and support the sect.

Gu Tieshou and the other elders also understood that this support from the temple was because of Li Qiye.

Mu Chen did not linger around to speak with Gu Tieshou’s crowd; he wanted to speak privately with Li Qiye. Even a character like Demon King Lun Ri could only attend next to Elder Jiang.

As for the group of Gu Tieshou, they were not qualified to partic.i.p.ate in a meeting of this level. On the other hand, Li Shuangyan and Chen Baojiao were able to accompany Li Qiye by his side.

Up at the Lonely Peak, only Li Qiye was at ease inside the room. He glanced at Mu Chen right across from him and spoke with a dismissive tone: “I heard that recently, your temple has not been very comfortable!”

Mu Chen could only wryly smile. Even an experienced character like him, who was feared by many great powers in the world, did not dare to put on airs in front of Li Qiye.

“We couldn’t help but become a bit restless when it came to the matter of life and death regarding our ancestor.” Mu Chen replied. However, he was very happy at this moment; otherwise, he wouldn’t have personally acted for the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect.

“Your old man has returned alive so you should give me my items, right?” Li Qiye didn’t want to waste his breath with formalities and courteous speech, so he waved his sleeve and unenthusiastically asked.

To this, Chen Baojiao and Li Shuangyan — next to Li Qiye — were quite surprised as well. They saw the War G.o.d Temple’s coffin being buried inside the Underworld Boat with their own eyes and didn’t think that the forefather would come back so soon.

In fact, even Demon King Lun Ri was shocked from excitement. Li Qiye had truly accomplished the unimaginable! He had picked the right person! He knew that he would not misjudge a person!

Demon King Lun Ri took a breath of relief. Their Nine Saint Demon Gate had exerted everything for this transaction, including all of its wealth and he, himself, as the a.s.surance. He bet that he had not picked the wrong person for he trusted his own insight!

It might seem as if the Nine Saint Demon Gate did not have any direct benefit from this transaction, but Demon King Lun Ri was still extremely ecstatic. Their indirect gains were apparent the moment Ancestor Mu Chen personally came out for support. This was something that he would have never dared to imagine before!

Even with their hardest efforts, they would not be able to invite an ancestor of the War G.o.d Temple to protect the Nine Saint Demon Gate, but they might have won that chance today! All of this was because of Li Qiye! Lun Ri’s wisdom in judging people was the reason why this transaction was successful!

The two kings chose two different sides. The Heavenly Jewel Mortal King chose to win the favor of the Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom while Demon King Lun Ri aimed for the support of the War G.o.d Temple. Without a doubt, Demon King Lun Ri was more successful!

At this time, Mu Chen handed a treasure box to Li Qiye. After accepting it, Li Qiye opened it for a look and noticed three keys inconspicuously lying inside.

Li Shuangyan and Chen Baojiao right beside him were taken aback because of this. This transaction could be considered a grand exchange; Li Qiye extended the life of a supreme character inside the War G.o.d Temple. They a.s.sumed that Li Qiye’s item would also be a supreme treasure, it could even be of the Immortal Emperor ranking. However, they never expected that it would be three keys!

“It is them!” Li Qiye looked at the three keys for a bit and became quite satisfied. In fact, he had always wanted these three keys before, but the War G.o.d Temple had always considered them to be their treasure child! This time, the War G.o.d Temple had met a dead end and became willing to use these three keys for the deal.

“Before our forefather went into a deep hibernation within the Blood Era Stone, he wanted to ask whether if Young n.o.ble Li was interested in joining the Hidden Immortal Hall or not?” At this time, Mu Chen asked with a serious expression.

Hearing this left Demon King Lun Ri shaken! Joining the Hidden Immortal Hall was an amazing matter. Even the disciple with the highest apt.i.tude of the War G.o.d Temple was not qualified for such things! The forefather of the Hidden Immortal Hall had always been hibernating and basically never took in disciples!

“Take me in as a disciple?” Li Qiye smiled for a bit and shook his head: “Your Hidden Immortal Hall is indeed amazing. I also know the items hidden inside are craved by everyone. However, I don’t want to be tied up by a bunch of stinky rules of the War G.o.d Temple. Plus, if I have to live with old men like all of you, maybe one day, I will become rotten with outdated doctrines as well!”
