Chapter 1708: Realm Gods Request (1/2)
After Li Qiye returned to Cleansing Incense, Long Jingxian was the first to run out. She furiously hollered: “Ugly Qiye, what sinister deed have you done?! Stealing other people’s qualification to compete!”
“What are you talking about?” Li Qiye glanced at her with one eye in response: “This is the Heaven’s Will wanting me as its master. What can I do about it?” He shrugged helplessly as if the Heaven’s Will was forcing him to become an emperor.
Seeing his infuriating act made her even angrier; she wanted nothing more than to punch his face in.
“Hmph! Ugly Qiye, just wait until I finish refining the Immortal Emperor Ma.s.sacre Formation. I’ll team up with the girls and break all your teeth even if you become an emperor. We’ll have an emperor grovel and beg for mercy at that point!” She couldn’t help but laugh as if she could already see the scene.
Li Qiye chuckled: “I’ll wait for you all to finish the formation then.”
“Ugly Qiye, we will, just wait and pick up your teeth from the ground at that point.” She raised her fist to threaten and provoke him.
Li Qiye only smiled. This girl had boundless potential. As long as she had enough motivation, her future achievements would be unbelievable since her talents were most likely on the same level as the eonic geniuses.
Bu Lianxiang spoke up next: “How was the Immortal Demon Grotto?”
She was relieved to see her lover coming back. Despite having great confidence in him, she still worried when his foe was the grotto.
“The feuds and grievances are over. I have untied another knot in my mind.” He gently sighed and told her of the grotto’s situation.
“The Ancient Ming.. they’re like leeches that won’t let go.” She was startled.
“It’s to be expected. The old geezer was still only a chess piece but no matter what, that’s one more business finished. The Ancient Ming didn’t gain anything, not the Longevity Gra.s.s, and were even majorly wounded by the old man. Their overlords won’t appear soon so this is a good opportunity for the nine worlds.”
“It’s a shame about the Longevity Gra.s.s though. If you had obtained it, it would be so useful in the future, giving you a chance to rise again even after a defeat at the final battle.” She said with regrets.
“It’s fine, no need to mull over it. It’s really not that useful in the final battle since it won’t help me win, it’ll just be a way out at best. I hope to either win or lose completely. No need to talk about trying again. Let it all end in this generation.” He explained his thoughts.
She leaned in closer, face to face, and tenderly spoke: “I see. Immortality is painful, a kind of torture for you. Watching those close to you leave one by one, lovers and all. Those years must have been hard.”
She was also from an ancient era and had experienced goodbyes before so she could understand the pain experienced by the ruler of the nine worlds.
He embraced her and became a bit sentimental: “I just don’t want to be an ant but this has brought so much pain to those close to me.”
“Everyone has to make a choice. Being a warrior is still a happier choice than being an ant.” She said with a serious tone: “The world needs warriors or it will be full of ants or a breeding ground for livestock.”
“I know.” He hugged her tighter without speaking.
Magu came to visit shortly after his return. She also planned on leaving the nine worlds with him so she had finished with her tasks at the academy.
“The Realm G.o.d hopes that you can do him a favor before leaving, teacher.” She said after seeing Li Qiye.
“It wants to leave?” Li Qiye made a prediction.
She nodded: “He wants to return to his home since its mission can be considered finished at the academy.”
