Chapter 1450: Great Reversal (2/2)
Dragonscale couldn’t react at all, he only stood there looking silly. He thought Terminus would back him up because of his master; the death of Li Qiye was surely about to happen.
In fact, such a reversal took everyone by surprise. They watched in astonishment and didn’t know what had just happened.
“Ancestor, my, my master is the Dragon Bamboo Vice Ancestor, he, he has told me…” When Dragonscale calmed down, he tried to speak again but couldn’t find the right words.
“I know who your master is. Even if his true form comes here, my answer will still be the same.” Terminus interrupted him: “Go on, it isn’t too late to commit suicide for the terra’s sake!”
Dragonscale was completely speechless. Not even in his dreams would he expect for Terminus to take Li Qiye’s side.
“Alright, my patience is limited and so is my time, I have other things to do.” Li Qiye glanced at the dazed old man and flatly stated: “Are you committing suicide or do I have to help you myself? The geezer is right, it is not too late to commit suicide.”
Dragonscale stammered: “You… you… I… I…”
“I’ll send you off then!” Terminus unleashed a palm straight at Dragonscale after seeing this.
“Ancestor, Ancestor, I’m from the Ancestral Terra, my master is the vice ancestor…” Dragonscale’s soul almost left his body after seeing Terminus take action.
Terminus declared: “This is for your own good as well as the terra’s.”
“Boom!” Dragonscale was slammed into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist without the chance to scream.
Li Qiye looked at Terminus and insipidly said: “Ai, I was aiming to kill the young while waiting for the old to come out.”
Terminus could only smile helplessly. He killed Dragonscale in order to give the terra a chance. This was because Dragonscale didn’t know who he was messing with. If this continued to escalate, the Ancestral Terra would be completely annihilated even if it was stronger!
In this brief moment, the crowd was completely astounded. No one expected for the guardian to kill Dragonscale. Everyone thought that Li Qiye would be the victim instead since the vice ancestor had some ties with the guardian.
Not only did Terminus not save Dragonscale, he even personally put him down. This result was truly unimaginable and beyond everyone’s expectations.
“If anyone sees the Prince of Darkness, tell him that from today on, I do not want to see anyone from the abyss or I shall trample it and place his skull at the highest location of the ridge!” Li Qiye’s eyes swept through the crowd as he declared this without a care if there were still any disciples of the abyss left in the city.
With that, he disappeared into a street with Ye Xiaoxiao. Terminus only smiled and slowly closed his eyes to return to his slumber.
“He is qualified to be called Fiercest.” People had no choice but to be convinced by Li Qiye while watching his departing back: “Among the young, outside of the Era Evaders, who would dare to talk about taking the Prince of Darkness’ head?!”
Not just anyone could make this domineering statement towards the prince and the abyss at G.o.dhalt. Even the most mighty genius would need to think twice before uttering these words.
Alas, Li Qiye did so today in a nonchalant and overbearing manner.
“Will he really become emperor? It looks like even the guardian is protecting him.” A treant expert was in disbelief.
Being old acquaintances with the vice ancestor, Terminus should have saved Dragonscale at the very least. However, he personally killed Dragonscale. The only explanation was that he held Li Qiye in high regard and didn’t wish to become enemies with the future Immortal Emperor!
