Chapter 1439: Epoch Leaf (2/2)
In a distant era, the progenitor of the Blood Race had obtained the primal chapter, but even he didn’t realize the existence of the other three.
While looking at the leaf hanging on his tree of life, Li Qiye murmured: “The four images of the fate palace… once I understand their mysteries and combine them with these four secret items, who in this world will be able to grasp the ultimate profundities better than me?”
He looked towards the horizon through the nine firmaments with a thick smile: “I will return to the end of the world one day and slay whatever ultimate force is there! No one will be able to stop me in this generation!”
Xiaoxiao stared at him in a daze. Before she knew it, he had changed into a completely different person. Even though there was no aggression or divinity, he stood there unchanging through time as if he was the eternal master of fate!
Eventually, he withdrew his gaze while feeling quite good and told Xiaoxiao: “Let’s go, I’ll take you to somewhere else.”
She calmed down and quickly went next to him. Before leaving this s.p.a.ce, she couldn’t help but look at the twelve golden palaces here several more times.
From start to finish, he didn’t bother looking at the palaces; it was as if they were meaningless to him.
She couldn’t help but ask: “What exactly are these palaces?”
“You tell me.” He noticed her inquisitive mind and stopped while smiling.
“Let me see.” She didn’t give up and rushed forward in front of the palace then carefully observed it. She even knocked on the walls.
After a long time, she came back to his side and said: “These twelve golden palaces here, I feel as if they are the twelve fate palaces judging by their appearances and auras.”
She found this quite surprising. If these were actually fate palaces, what was the meaning behind all of this?
“You are very gifted.” He maintained his smile and didn’t answer her.
“Stop praising me, I already know that I’m gifted!” She didn’t like his answer and unhappily gave him the dirty eye.
“Off we go to the place you have been wanting to visit.” Li Qiye acted as if he didn’t notice her dissatisfaction.
She thought about something and blurted: “Where? The place you mentioned before? Is it really here?”
Back at the Divine Tree Ridge, Terminus had talked about a location but was interrupted by Li Qiye right away. She thought that there would still be some time before he took her there, so she was a bit unprepared for this.
“Just what is my blood?” She felt a bit nervous. All along, she wanted to find out more about her bloodline, but this was a bit too sudden.
He noticed her fl.u.s.tered appearance and smiled while gently patting her soft hair: “Don’t worry, it will be fine with me around. You just need to go with the flow.”
His words were a medicine that set her mind at ease. Her slightly panicking mind quickly went away.
