Chapter 1573: Identity Verification (2/2)

Keep in mind that she was still an innocent woman yet to be seen by a man hence her shock at Li Qiye’s action.

More importantly, if Li Qiye had any idea about her, she was powerless to stop him. Of course, his eyes weren’t fixated on her b.r.e.a.s.t.s but rather the pendant on top of them.

It had an oval crystal with a glimmer flowing inside. The light was as magnificent as fireworks and continued to change shapes. The string was made from a thin law, virtually undetectable.

“The key to the Pearl Tower is indeed in your possession.” He smiled and said.

She heaved a sigh of relief and no longer misunderstood his intention: “I’m the city lord so of course, I have the key.”

“No, even if you have the key, it doesn’t mean that you are the city lord since you could seize it. However, it’s not hard to verify it.”

He placed his rugged hand on the pendant and her bare b.r.e.a.s.t.s This triggered both embarra.s.sment and anger but she could do naught.

“Buzz.” The faint light in the pendant seemed to be entering her b.r.e.a.s.t.s without leaving any wound. He seemed to have taken control of her body at this crucial moment.

Her mind opened. Keep in mind that no cultivator would ever allow for this key spot to be exposed but it was no longer up to her. A little paG.o.da floated out from her forehead, only the size of a finger. It emitted a blinding light with a holy power as if it could wash away all the darkness in this world.

“Looks like your ident.i.ty is real.” Li Qiye nodded and said flatly: “The city lord’s position can be bestowed and the key could be forcefully taken. Not the Pearl Tower though, one would need its permission.”

He pulled back and tidied her dress again: “You might not be under Zhangsun’s branch but since the tower accepted you, he pa.s.sed the key to you.”

“How do you know all of this?!” This was the biggest secret of Heaven Suppression. Even those who knew that the tower could pick its master would have no way of verifying it. However, Li Qiye’s familiarity on this point astounded her.

Of course, how could she know that he was the one who created the Pearl Tower? If he didn’t know the method, no one else would either.

“What is there that I, Li Qiye, do not know?” He put away his pillar and clapped: “Okay, you’re free now.”

She shuddered for a bit before regaining control over her body again with the disappearance of the suppression. She became dazed as if looking at a ghost while retreating backward to keep a distance from Li Qiye.

“You’re hurting my feelings.” Li Qiye laughed and shook his head after seeing her scared expression: “Am I really that scary? I’m not a devil with horns or anything, just a nice and compa.s.sionate person.”

The monarch thought otherwise. Anyone else would have escaped right away after regaining freedom but her choosing to linger around was already courageous enough.

Her face reddened after recalling how he unb.u.t.toned and saw her bare b.r.e.a.s.t.s but there was nothing she could do.

She eventually calmed her raging emotions from past experiences of being an authoritative figure with a deep breath. His words echoed through her mind again and prompted her to blurt: “You, you are Li Qiye, Young n.o.ble Li?!”

“Correct.” He said with a faint smile.

She didn’t expect this ordinary man to be the notorious Li Qiye. She has heard of his tales in the past and didn’t think she would b.u.mp into him today. Being imprisoned by Fiercest wasn’t shameful at all. After all, this was a G.o.dslaying existence; a man who dared to kill members from the Soaring Immortal Sect. Was there anything he couldn’t do?
