Chapter 636: Mysterious Wooden Horse (2/2)

Both of them were very happy and excited. It was needless to mention s.h.i.+ Hao, he obtained a cauldron left behind by the Hundred-gra.s.s Alchemy Emperor, something he wouldn’t even dare to dream of before.

Bai Weng also obtained a Vermillion Divine Flame Cauldron. Although it was not comparable to s.h.i.+ Hao’s, this was more than enough for him. At the very least, he wouldn’t have been able to buy one like this even if he strived for it for his entire life.

They felt very grateful to Li Qiye for giving them items this precious.

As they left the Golem Square and crossed a couple of streets, they were suddenly stopped.

The person blocking his path was Lie Jie, the descendant of the Lie Clan. Bai Weng reacted very quickly; the moment Lie Jie went in front of Li Qiye, Bai Weng immediately stopped him.

Bai Weng spoke calmly: “Young n.o.ble Lie Jie, if you have something to say, then say it right here.”

“Dog servant, scram to the side!” Lie Jie coldly shouted with an oppressive momentum. In his eyes, Bai Weng was only a servant.

However, Bai Weng’s status was not low. Although he didn’t come from a prestigious clan, with Ancient Pine as his backing, he was not afraid of Lie Jie if push comes to shove.

Bai Weng beckoned by waving his hand as Ancient Pine’s disciples all gathered and awaited his command. He coldly spoke: “Young n.o.ble Lie Jie, please return. Young n.o.ble Li is an honored guest of the Giant Bamboo Country and is not someone that you can meet at your whim!”

Bai Weng’s att.i.tude enraged Lie Jie. He wished he could rush over and teach Li Qiye and this dog servant a lesson, but he was stopped by Ancient Pine’s disciples.

Lie Jie shouted a threat at Li Qiye: “Brat, listen well! The capital isn’t for an outsider brat like you, having money is nothing! There are countless clans that you can’t afford to offend at the capital. Know your place and get the h.e.l.l out now. If not, you won’t have a chance to leave the capital with your tail tucked between your legs, you will die without a grave!”

This was the disparity between Lie Jie and Jian Wushuang. Both of them hated and wanted to kill Li Qiye, but Jian Wushuang wouldn’t block his path like this with meaningless threats. If she wished to, then she would immediately kill him instead of posturing.

A minor character like Lie Jie was nothing to Li Qiye, but his threat caused Li Qiye to pause. Li Qiye took a look at Lie Jie and slowly spoke: “Lie Clan, right? What kind of trash clan is it? So what if you have a little fire spark? Remember, a Fire Source can destroy your Lie Clan as well as end your life.”

Li Qiye then lazily walked away, not bothering to care for a response.

Lie Jie took note of this arrogant retort and angrily shouted: “Hahaha, you think I’m afraid of you? Brat, I dare you to not walk away!”

He didn’t have a chance to chase after Li Qiye since Ancient Pine’s disciples were blocking his path. Eventually, he stamped the ground exasperatedly and swore that he would teach this little unknown outsider a lesson.

The moment Li Qiye returned to the mansion, the Demon Monarch had already been standing there, waiting, and quickly ran to greet him. The monarch revealed a wide smile: “Congratulations, Young n.o.ble, for your triumphant return from the Golem Square.”

At this point, the monarch’s att.i.tude was even more respectful, and he became even more humble.

Li Qiye looked at the monarch and smiled: “Your information gathering is quite fast.”

The monarch wryly smiled and said: “I only heard it just now. Young n.o.ble’s grand gesture shocked the four directions; it would be hard to not catch wind of it.”

Li Qiye only smiled and didn’t respond.

The monarch rubbed his palms together and said: “Early this morning, I went to meet the other monarchs and couldn’t come with Young n.o.ble, please excuse me.”

His tone then became more serious: “Her Majesty wishes to meet Young n.o.ble, would that be okay?”

“Wait a bit.” With that, Li Qiye went inside.

The monarch stood there on the spot, not knowing what to say. Being summoned by the ruler of the Giant Bamboo Country was an honor, but it was different for Li Qiye since they needed him and not vice versa.

Bai Weng then whispered to the monarch. After hearing the report, the monarch’s expression quickly changed.

[spoiler t.i.tle='636 Teaser']“I have a Lifesaving Order Writ from the Jianlong Clan. As long as you have this writ, no matter where you are or what danger you are facing, the Jianlong Clan will do their best to guarantee your safety.” Another hidden ancestor spoke.

These words shocked everyone. The Jianlong Clan was a monstrous existence, the only existence comparable to the Alchemy Kingdom in the Stone Medicine World. With its protection, one wouldn’t have to worry about offending anyone. However, this writ also couldn’t tempt Li Qiye.

The arrogant Jian Wushuang stood up and spoke in a serious tone: “I will trade a supreme secret technique for the Longevity Fruit.”

Li Qiye didn’t budge. In fact, he didn’t even open his eyes.

As there was no response from the owner, Jian Wushuang gritted her teeth and lowered her tone once more: “I have three drops of Immortal Emperor Longevity Blood. If the owner is willing, then I will use the supreme technique along with the three blood drops to trade for this fruit.”

Jian Wushuang didn’t need the fruit, but she had an elder who really needed it. The rest of the buyers were shocked as they exclaimed: “What?! Immortal Emperor Longevity Blood?”[/spoiler]
