Chapter 1803: Leaving A Mark (1/2)

Li Qiye stared at the sky above while reminiscing. People continued to depart one after another. This was a feeling only those at the apex could understand.

Because of this, many emperors rarely asked about the mundane realm after entering seclusion. They stopped caring about their descendants; this was one way of severing their ties with worldly constraints.

No matter who they might be, after spending too much time and seeing people leave them one by one, their dao heart would eventually be affected. Time was truly cruel.

Being overly involved in these matters would turn people crazy. They would either become a saint or a devil, no longer an ordinary being.

Generations went by and Li Qiye had to see people off or even buried his lovers more than once. He sent emperors on their path towards the unknown of the ultimate journey. They all knew there was no returning but each emperor still bravely walked forward.

He knew that nothing good would come from these expeditions but he was powerless in making substantial changes. All he could do was to acc.u.mulate power for the final battle at the end of the world.

He wanted an answer at that place, same with all the emperors. Qian Suyun also searched for an answer. However, the answer was different for each of them.

Even though they had the same goal at the end of the world, their proposed solution was different.

Jilin Princess watched the contemplating man. Her heart suddenly shuddered as if something was affecting its deepest part.

He was still as ordinary as before but there was a strange feeling emitted. He seemed to be eternal and stained with the karma of time. There was a sad air of vicissitudes around him.

His profound eyes encompa.s.sed everything in the world: emotions, G.o.ds and devils, the worthies, and ordinary life in the three thousand worlds.

It looked as if this man had experienced countless reincarnation cycles. He continued to be unchanging along the river of time. His immovable heart was beating with the same rhythm as the heart of the world.

Oceans turned into mulberry fields; all things transformed and changed except for his heart and his relentless pursuit as well as his determined pace.

This was when the princess thought that this man was anything but ordinary. There was an irresistible charisma that had nothing to do with physical appearance or even temperament. It was gifted to him from the years, an acc.u.mulation of time polished by the endless revolution of the three thousand worlds. This charisma was unique and boundless.

Her heart was leaving her body. It took a long time before she recovered and let out a wry smile. She rubbed her forehead and wondered what the heck she was going on about?

Li Qiye came back to earth a while later and told her: “Your clan has received an item after the sixth expedition. It is something that fell down from above, probably straight for your clan.” He pointed at the sky.

“How do you know?!” The princess blurted out but after the initial shock, she didn’t find it too strange. This unfathomable man seemed to know everything.

She took a deep breath and nodded: “Yes, young n.o.ble. We did obtain something.”

They had it for some years now but couldn’t understand its mysteries. That’s the reason why they wanted to recruit mortals and cultivators versed in ancient runes.

“What did your two monarchs say?” Li Qiye asked.

The princess shook her head: “Our ancestors said that our two monarchs do not want to take it and only said that it is unbelievably prestigious. It is waiting for the fated.”

“That’s fine.” Li Qiye gently sighed: “They do not want to be pulled into this karmic event so they continue to hide. That’s understandable. The Heavenly Execution looming above is scary indeed.”
