Chapter 637: Bloodsoul Worm
As Li Qiye made it back to his room, the monarch followed right behind him and busily apologized: “Young n.o.ble, this was all because of my negligence and not personally escorting Young n.o.ble. Rest a.s.sured, I guarantee that these people from the Lie Clan will never appear in front of you again.”
After hearing Bai Weng’s report, the monarch thought that Li Qiye was taking his displeasure out on others.
Li Qiye said dismissively: “Such a trivial thing is not worthy of my attention. I pay no mind to insignificant characters like that, so Demon Monarch doesn’t have to worry either. Moreover, in the future, the Lie Clan will not dare to appear before me.”
The monarch was taken aback since he didn’t know what Li Qiye was implying.
While the monarch was dazed, Li Qiye continued on: “Do not worry, Demon Monarch, I will go meet your Royal Lord tomorrow as I am not free right now.”
The monarch calmed down and said goodbye to Li Qiye. He didn’t dare to say anything else that could bother him.
After the monarch left, Li Qiye took out the pentagate to seal the room again and also took out the Alchemy Fowl from the Golem Square.
The chicken emitted a bright light along with a permeating medicinal fragrance; this was indeed a supreme bird. The seal on the chicken’s body remained closed as Li Qiye put it on the table for a careful look.
Back at the Golem Square, Li Qiye had taken a look, but now he wanted confirmation. He stared at its eyes then made a decision and took out the Myriad Heavenly Cauldron.
“Boom!” It landed next to Li Qiye and, with a wave of his hand, a flame fell to his palm.
The flame slowly condensed into a knife resembling a mysterious piece of ice that emitted the thick aroma of medicine.
Others would be dumbfounded by this scene. Controlling a flame to turn it into a blade was already difficult, but controlling a flame to turn it into ice was even harder!
Li Qiye pushed the chicken down and intended to dissect its stomach: “Little thing, let me see what you have swallowed.”
The Alchemy Fowl struggled in fear, but it couldn’t escape.
Li Qiye calmed it down: “Don’t worry, my Iceflame Blade contains the essence of an alchemy trove, so even when I cut open your stomach, the wound will recover right away and it won’t hurt you. Even if you don’t want me to do it, the thing inside your stomach will make its way out anyway.”
The Alchemy Fowl was no ordinary bird and was fully sentient, so it calmed down after hearing Li Qiye.
He slowly dissected the bird’s stomach with his icy blade. He was as smooth as flowing water; not even a tiny mistake was made. Li Qiye was a master with no peers at dissection.
He found something that resembled a jade block the size of a finger. It was a bit like a seed.
Li Qiye took it out from the chicken’s stomach and said: “Little thing, you were too greedy. You wanted to keep a treasure like this all to yourself.”
“Plufff!” Suddenly, a spurt of blood shot out from the seed. Its velocity was matchless and was even faster than the speed of light as it shot towards Li Qiye, launching for his heart.
However, Li Qiye was prepared from early on and had the lamp in his other hand. The lamp released a black flame that instantly swept over the spurt of blood.
This b.l.o.o.d.y strand kept on morphing. At times, it resembled countless tentacles as thin as hairs. Other times, it looked like a ferocious face, yet afterward, it also undertook the shape of a holy existence.
This thing that resembled a drop of blood could take on many creepy transformations — this was indeed a terrible monster.
The drop of blood was afraid of the black flame and no longer dared to approach Li Qiye. It hovered in the air as it tested the flame with a thin tentacle. The moment this tentacle got close to the black flame, a sizzling sound appeared as it was burnt to a crisp.
Li Qiye ignored the thing trapped by the black flame and held the seed from the chicken’s stomach for a closer inspection.
It was a finger-sized piece of black jade in the shape of a seed. Li Qiye looked at it closely then glanced at the Alchemy Fowl and said: “You were very lucky to meet such a divine item. However, you were too greedy and instantly swallowed it without any consideration. Did you want to become an Immortal Phoenix in one fell swoop?
