Chapter 1452: One Sentence To Suppress The Eras (2/2)

In fact, those who knew this ancestor’s background found this astonis.h.i.+ng as well. Some murmured: “What the h.e.l.l is going on? First, it's the True Martial G.o.ddess, now the Conch Overlord is out too? The divine prince and princess of the sea G.o.ds are coming out, is it to vie for the new golden age?”

Someone speculated: “Maybe the overlord came out to be the Seas.h.i.+eld Prince’s dao protector?”

It was a very reasonable guess because not long after the overlord came to the citadel, news of another arrival spread. The Seven Martial G.o.ddess has also come to the Divine Ridge Citadel!

After hearing this, people started to get a picture of the overarching situation. An old sea demon stated: “The compet.i.tion for the sea G.o.d’s position will be quite merciless this time around. The divine prince and princess are coming out, I think the Seven Martial G.o.ddess’ status is being greatly threatened right now.”

With the coming of these amazing characters, the citadel could feel a storm brewing as rumors spread everywhere.

“Ego King, it looks like you’re about to be really unlucky.” While Li Qiye was waiting inside the inn, little Xiaoxiao couldn’t sit still and would occasionally sneak out to play.

Today, she was gloating about his misfortune: “I heard the oldest and strongest ancestor from the Roaring Conch is coming out, he’s called the Conch Overlord. Heh, you killed so many of their disciples, I’m sure he is coming to cause trouble for you.”

“Conch Overlord? You are talking about the cowardly turtle who hid in the Roaring Conch for millions of years without daring to come out?”

“Cowardly turtle?” Xiaoxiao curiously said: “He’s the son of a sea G.o.d, a real prince.”

“So what?” Li Qiye casually smiled: “Because of a single phrase from Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng, he immediately shrank into his sh.e.l.l for many years without coming out. Such a coward can’t get into my sight.”

“A phrase from Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng?” Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and was extremely interested: “Really? What kind of story is this?”

In fact, even Sima Yujian listened attentively since these anecdotes were very interesting.

“It is a very old tale.” Li Qiye noticed their interest. Since he had time anyway, he smiled and recalled: “Back then, this Conch Overlord was only a prince. He felt that he could do whatever he wanted just because his father was a sea G.o.d. He had grown accustomed to this lawless lifestyle at Heaven Spirit. One day, he met Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng at the Mortal Emperor World, and his arrogant self offended the emperor.”

At this point, Li Qiye sneered before continuing: “So, the emperor simply glared at him and said a single sentence. The story ends there.”

Xiaoxiao inquired: “What do you mean?”

“It means that the prince went into hiding and never dared to come out again.” Li Qiye laughed.

“Hiding?” Xiaoxiao was surprised: “Just what did the emperor say?”

Li Qiye flatly stated: “Never shall you be allowed to become a sea G.o.d!”

“Never shall you be allowed to become a sea G.o.d?” Xiaoxiao continued: “The Conch Overlord went into hiding just because of this? Are you serious?”

“Do you have to ask? Of course it is a true story.” Li Qiye said with a smile: “You shouldn’t underestimate Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng’s words. He is the only emperor in history to have twelve fate palaces as well as the only one undefeated throughout his life.”

“But ultimately, they are just words. Plus, the overlord’s father is still a sea G.o.d.” Xiaoxiao didn’t buy it.

“You are looking down on the emperor’s supreme position.” Li Qiye gently shook his head: “A sea G.o.d is nothing! If Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng wanted to kill his father, there would be no escaping death!”

“Moreover, it wasn’t just a simple sentence. His words were an unquestionable imperial order. It was a supreme law that branded itself on the overlord’s body.” Li Qiye chuckled.

“But I heard others say that this overlord had once been recognized by the Trident.” Xiaoxiao brought up another point.

“This is also true. When his father was still a sea G.o.d, the prince has indeed used the Trident before. Not only did it not reject him, you can even say that it flourished under his control. Under the cover of his father’s shadow, he indeed had a big chance of becoming the next sea G.o.d. Unfortunately, he offended Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng. One simple sentence buried his life. Even his sea G.o.d father couldn’t do anything about it.” Li Qiye concluded with a faint smile.
