Chapter 941: Su Zhens Background (2/2)

Li Qiye smiled and said: “n.o.body is weak in Heavenguard. Your current cultivation can allow you to look down on any genius among the younger generation. However, my requirements are far more than that, understand? You are Qi Zhen’s descendant, so I hope that you won’t shame your ancestor in the future.”

“I will definitely live up to your expectations.” Su Zhen took a deep breath and nodded wholeheartedly.

After a while, Forheaven finally returned while holding a steel box. He excitedly spoke: “I did not disgrace your holy order, Emperor. The steel box is still here.” He respectfully offered the steel box to Li Qiye.

Li Qiye took it and gently rubbed it. A clicking sound came about, followed by the box opening. Li Qiye took out a veil as thin as a cicada’s wing and placed it on Su Zhen’s face. It was just like the one hiding her face. However, when it made contact, it slowly melted and merged with her face.

Afterward, her face became blurry and her features grew barely discernible. Even heavenly gazes couldn’t see through it, resulting in a very bizarre scene.

Li Qiye nodded after seeing her ethereal face and said: “This is all I can do, the rest is up to you.”

Su Zhen also felt something extraordinary, as if something was waking up within her blood, giving her endless strength. She was jubilated and quickly bowed towards Li Qiye.

He gave the box back to Forheaven and said: “It is time for you to take me to that item.”

Forheaven prostrated on the ground in response: “Emperor’s words are wasted. How could this disciple dare to stop you from taking the item? I will bring you there right away.”

In fact, even if Li Qiye didn’t follow the ancestral teachings left behind by Immortal Emperor Mu Tian, Forheaven wouldn’t dare to stop him from taking the item.

“Rise, devoted one. I do not blame you.” Li Qiye gently waved his hand.

Forheaven quickly led Li Qiye to take that legendary treasure.

Meanwhile, Ye Chuyun was waiting outside of Heavenguard for Li Qiye. There were no visible signs after such a long time, so she became quite worried.

Everyone knew that Heavenguard was one of the most powerful lineages in the contemporary times. It was ancient and mysterious, so no one in this world would dare to come bl.u.s.ter at their door.

She thought about Li Qiye’s arrogant nature that was bound to cause trouble anywhere and became uneasy. She was afraid that his aggressive style would result in a conflict with Heavenguard. She kept on waiting with her heart hanging on a thread and only wished to see Li Qiye walking out from the entrance.

Eventually, he finally appeared in her sight. He took his time and was completely unscathed, so she finally sighed with relief.

Next, she was startled because there was someone accompanying him, the renowned Sect Master Forheaven.

Keep in mind that he was not just famous, he was an infamous monster that threatened the entire Mortal Emperor World! However, he was walking behind Li Qiye with reverence. She realized that she couldn’t see through Li Qiye, that she didn’t know anything about him at all.

At the entrance, Li Qiye gently waved his sleeve and told Forheaven: “Return, there’s no need to see me off.”

The ancestors wanted to see him off as well, but Li Qiye refused since he didn’t want to make a big scene.

Forheaven opened his mouth, wis.h.i.+ng to say something. However, he didn’t want to be seen as too talkative and held it in.

Li Qiye looked at him and sighed: “I know that the entire Heavenguard is full of devotion. Very well, I will call for you when I need the sect in the future.”

“We will rush into the fire with Emperor’s order!” Forheaven excitedly prostrated on the ground.

Li Qiye gently sighed. He didn’t wish to bring Heavenguard to war again. This was not his purpose.

Li Qiye eventually said: “Go back for now.” Forheaven bowed one more time and went back inside.

Li Qiye left with Ye Chuyun. Along the way, the questions she had only continued to increase. Heavenguard’s att.i.tude towards Li Qiye was truly unfathomable. This made her very curious, but she was not in a position to ask.
