Chapter 1067: Wooden Sword Dark Saint (2/2)

The girls were quite alarmed after hearing the dark saint. They were afraid that he had seen through Li Qiye’s disguise.

However, Li Qiye was unperturbed. He still acted imperiously and coldly glared at the guy: “Since I want to board the Evil Slaying Platform and have taken quite a liking to these little girls, I want to give them something nice to play with.”

“Devils like us do not have emotions.” The dark saint stated coldly.

The girls held their breaths and became quite nervous. They were really afraid of being caught now. It looks like this dark saint was much harder to trick than the devil dragon.

“This is the gap between you and me. Your current state can’t even catch up to me, let alone thinking about catching up to the Devil Lord.” Li Qiye spoke emotionlessly: “You are no different than those bald donkeys! This is the best you can do!”

“You think you can become the Devil Lord?” The dark saint narrowed his gaze a bit.

Li Qiye haughtily replied: “Devil Lord? This is not worth contending over. We have an even better destination, so what’s the point of competing for it against those donkeys?! The Devil Lord is gone, the Imperial Lord is gone, so it is time for me to go as well!”

The dark saint fell into quiet contemplation. Perhaps this was a question that had always weighed on his mind.

“I actually enjoy your bad temper a bit, so I came to say h.e.l.lo. Whether you want to give it up or not, I shall have your Fragmented Bamboo Sword.” Li Qiye’s eyes became cold after declaring in a tyrannical manner.

The dark saint didn’t say anything in the end. He directly pulled the bamboo branch from the ground and threw it at Li Qiye.

“I don’t want to owe you a favor, so leave behind your wish.” Li Qiye spoke insipidly.

The dark saint hesitated for a moment. Eventually, he carved down his prayers and then turned around to disappear into the horizon.

After confirming that the dark saint was truly gone, the girls finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“That was pretty close, we were almost caught.” Even Li Shuangyan who was usually calm murmured.

Li Qiye smiled and gently shook his head: “Shuang’er, you’re truly underestimating your Young n.o.ble too much. Even if I wasn’t disguising myself as Heaven Relinquish, I can still handle him.”

Back then, he was also a supreme Devil King with the same ill.u.s.trious fame.

“Who are the Devil Lord and Imperial Lord?” Chen Baojiao asked: “Are they the masters of the Lesser Imperial Devil World?”

Li Qiye didn’t answer and only smiled. He pointed a finger towards Mei Suyao so that she could answer Chen Baojiao: “Legend states that the Devil Lord is the master of the Devil World and the Imperial Lord is the master of the Imperial Border. However, this is only limited to the legends, no one has actually seen them before. Some even speculate that they do not exist and they are just a baseless rumor.”

“No, the Devil Lord and Imperial Lord do exist.” Li Qiye sat on his palanquin and gently shook his head.

Chen Baojiao was quite inquisitive: “What kind of existences are they? Very unbeatable?”

“Who knows? No one has seen them before.” Li Qiye’s eyes were quite profound at this point while staring at the far distance.

“In addition, the Buddhist Funeral Plateau has a Buddhist Lord as well.” The reticent Bai Jianzhen also joined in: “Same as before, no one has seen the Buddhist Lord either. Just what kind of existences are these three?”

Mei Suyao couldn’t answer this question either. This was an eternal secret that even Immortal Emperors couldn’t figure out.

“There is a difference in opinions on this matter.” Li Qiye withdrew his gaze and elaborated: “There are two distinct beliefs about the Buddhist Lord. One is the Buddhist Lord that people always talk about, the ruler of the Buddhist Kingdom.”

“What about the other one?” Li Shuangyan’s curiosity was aroused.

Mei Suyao softly answered in Li Qiye’s stead: “The other belief is that there is an even higher existence at the plateau. However, no one has seen this person before, just like the elusive Devil Lord and Imperial Lord of legends.”

“What is all this about? So mysterious.” Chen Baojiao muttered.

Li Qiye gently shook his head: “It is not a legend, this person definitely exists. Of course, ordinary people wouldn’t be able to meet this Buddha.” Having said that, Li Qiye handed the Fragmented Bamboo Sword to Bai Jianzhen: “This bamboo branch is the greatest sword, so take it.”
