Chapter 1818: Enmity (1/2)

The sovereign’s death silenced the scene. Grand Rule’s expression became austere.

First, it was his son, Shen Jinlong, who died to Li Qiye. Now, even his favorite disciple couldn’t escape. It would be strange if he wasn’t furious right now. This was an irreconcilable feud.

The other ancestors here didn’t dare to say anything and only stared at him.

From beginning to end, he didn’t even lift a finger and quietly sat there while Golden Python Sovereign had scattered with the wind.

“What kind of d.a.m.n technique is this?” Southern Sun couldn’t help but ask, forgetting about his initial goal of regaining face by defeating Li Qiye.

After seeing this display of might, Southern Sun was filled with curiosity and questions.

A while ago, he thought that everything was only an illusory art, despite its realistic appearance. After the death of the sovereign, he understood that this wasn’t the case. It was a supreme technique that they have never seen or heard of before.

Keep n mind that these two High G.o.ds have lived for a long time with great knowledge. They have seen and talked to emperors. There weren’t that many techniques they were unaware of in the world.

But the reality was that they had never seen the techniques from the Thought Scripture before. It wasn’t strange for them not to know about it.

Purewood Divine Emperor was the only person besides Li Qiye who had trained with the scripture before. Alas, too few people in the thirteen continents have met him. A rumor existed stating that not more than five have actually seen the emperor and who knows how many among them had seen Purewood used techniques from the Thought Scripture?

Perhaps this was the first time the world had seen it, thanks to Li Qiye.

“A thought to create the myriad laws and all living beings; one will to grasp the universe.” Li Qiye freely smiled and said.

Southern Sun carefully repeated the words in his head and pondered the mysteries within.

Meanwhile, the rest of the ancestors thought that this statement was too arrogant. Only the high heaven was capable of such a thing! Even emperors didn’t have this privilege.

“Such nonsense, you think you’re capable of such a task?” Grand Rule snorted before speaking with authority.

Li Qiye didn’t care for the skepticism and replied: “Come, try it and see.”

“Hmph.” Grand Rule had murderous glint flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes. Each strand was as ferocious as the fiercest sword. They could easily make mincemeat out of someone. Even before Grand Rule did anything, the people present felt a faint pain on their skin due to his gaze.

Guanlu stepped up again and said: “Gentlemen, how about everyone takes a step back?”

Southern Sun had no objection. He only came to regain some face but after seeing Li Qiye’s techniques, he felt the need to be prudent.

Hesitation surfaced about teaching Li Qiye a lesson. He wasn’t sure that he was capable of doing so successfully. Once failed, it would only make matters worse.

Guanlu noticed this and continued: “The grand dao is long; feuds and revenge happen every day along with the compet.i.tion of the youths. The path towards the throne is ladened with bones, every day, a genius would fall down…”

“High G.o.ds, it might not necessarily be appropriate for the two of you to step up for your juniors. If you are willing, our clan will be the mediator for peace and prosperity.” Guanlu sincerely advised.

He was mainly aiming it at Grand Rule because he could see that Southern Sun was starting to change his mind. As long as he could convince Grand Rule, he would be able to diffuse the situation at hand.
