Chapter 1578: Messenger From Heaven Suppression (1/2)
The monarch looked up at the tower too and eventually shook her head. “The mysteries of the tower are as boundless as the ocean. It feels like I’m just a single drop in the sea, completely insignificant and lost. Where do I even start?”
Li Qiye simply smiled. “Everything is hard in the beginning. It doesn’t matter how vast the sea or how profound the idea, there is always an origin. One step at a time to walk a thousand miles. Start from the bottom with the most sincere att.i.tude towards the top. If it doesn’t work the first time, do it a second time. If you fail again, then go for the third. As long as you persevere, you will see results.”
“One step at a time to the top?” The monarch had heard that the top of the tower was the most precious location from the Sacred Ancestor.
“Yes, the power of the tower is at the top but without the support of the base, the top is only a simple ball.”
“How do you know all of this?” She wondered.
Li Qiye could easily reveal all of their secrets and Zi Cuining couldn’t have told him either. Despite being the sect master, she didn’t have authority over Pearl and its secrets.
“It would be stranger if there was something I didn’t know in this world. Try your best, it will be a lifetime of benefits if you can grasp the tower.” He replied.
“Thank you, Young n.o.ble.” She bowed gently and stopped inquiring about his knowledge regarding her sect.
When the two arrived outside the entrance of the Peac.o.c.k Mansion, an attendant hurriedly came out to report to the city lord. He carefully looked at Li Qiye standing by her side before whispering to the monarch, “City Lord, the people from the sect are here!”
“Who?” Her eyes became serious just like her voice.
“Elder Sun,” the attendant replied. He paused and glanced at Li Qiye before continuing, “Someone from Ancestor Ye’s camp.”
“I’ll go see him,” the monarch replied.
“City Lord, should we prepare? After all, who knows what those people are up to.” The disciple made a cut-throat gesture. The people from Pearl were very wary of Jiuzhou’s group.
“Let’s go.” The monarch entered the Peac.o.c.k Mansion with hastened steps.
Li Qiye only smiled and didn’t comment. He followed the monarch inside.
There was an old man waiting in a typical robe with a sharp gaze. His aura alone made his power apparent.
A skinny disciple stood beside him, acting as a tea server. Two rows of burly men in battle uniform were situated to the left and right of the hall. They were experts from Heaven Suppression and gave off an aggressive aura.
Since Elder Sun had brought so many experts along with him to Pearl Mansion, his intentions clearly weren’t friendly.
Elder Sun stood up and addressed the monarch, “Bright Monarch, long time no see.”
Despite being a veteran elder, he was still below the monarch in terms of status and role. As the Pearl City Lord, she was on the same level as ancestors in spite of her young age.
“Elder Sun, sorry to keep you waiting,” she greeted with a nod after sitting down.
Li Qiye casually sat down on another chair. His eyes swept through the experts.
They resembled drawn bows, ready to rush forward at the elder’s command
